1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: Here we go every time. Hi Drake, what's going on?

2
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 2: How are you great? How much did you and the

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 2: team just kind of feed off the energy? You guys

4
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 2: came out with a lot of energy. To where did

5
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 2: that come from? And what was that like to watch

6
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,600
Speaker 2: all three faces kind of take it to them From

7
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 2: the start.

8
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: I think it started with coach saying, no naps, you

9
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: don't want to come out here and start fast. And

10
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: we knew this team has been up in a lot

11
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 1: of games and they had good players over there. They

12
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: have some good talent, and we wanted to try to

13
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: get on them fast. And you know, Marcus helped us

14
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: with that, and you know what a what a what

15
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: a return for him and you have the kickoff return,

16
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: I mean kickoff coverage. I mean, I think just all

17
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: phases of the game showed up a different points. And

18
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,639
Speaker 1: I still think offensively in the second half, we got

19
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: to put some more drives together to he'll put the

20
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: game out of.

21
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 3: Reach, Drake.

22
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: Coach Rabel just said that you're realizing what you can

23
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: be and the impact that you make on the offense.

24
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: What is that to you?

25
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 4: Shoot?

26
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: Just trying to be trying to be the face, trying

27
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: to be the conductor, calls the conductor of the offense.

28
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: You're trying to be the face of the offense, trying

29
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: to you'll want the want, the want, the pressure, you

30
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: want to you know, the ball in my hands. And

31
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: I've you'll try to show that all year and and

32
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: throughout my career. So that's what you know, I kind

33
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 1: of feel like. And I know they feed off of

34
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: me and feed off my energy and feed off of

35
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: you know, what I say to those guys, and what

36
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,839
Speaker 1: I say you'll mean something to them. So just uh,

37
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: you'll know me wheneversity hits, you know, I got to respond.

38
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: And then from there, I just got to be, you know,

39
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: the same guy, the same guy every day, you know,

40
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: don't try to change and just be myself. That's what

41
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: the guys you like the most.

42
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 5: So I was just gonna stay on Coach Rabel. You

43
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 5: hear those m v P chants a lot, whether you're

44
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 5: here them or not, they're there. Do you think he's

45
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 5: mounting maybe a campaign for Coach of the Year.

46
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

47
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 5: He also promised to shave the mustache. Are you happy

48
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 5: or said about it exactly?

49
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 3: I thought it looked good.

50
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: I think it was for a great cause I think

51
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: he uh man, I think you know the awards, then

52
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: he'll probably say the same thing. He's your word about

53
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: each and every week, and that stuff will come. But

54
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: you know, he's got my vote, and he's got a

55
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: lot of people's vote. He's everybody's you know in this

56
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: organization and you know, in that locker room, and I'm

57
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: sure across the league.

58
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 3: Your coach reference they hit the other quarterback god and

59
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 3: playing through the whistle, and he intimated that that that

60
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: might have been a subtle reminder to you on certain

61
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 3: plays on being careful about being taken down hard. Uh So,

62
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 3: I guess two quick questions. Did that resonate with you

63
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 3: in any fashion? And was there any winking or eye

64
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 3: contact from your coach after that play?

65
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: No? I think it's ah, you know something that that's

66
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: been across the league that showed up with with quarterbacks

67
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: near the boundary or near the sideline, just kind of

68
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: relaxing and and uh, I think I learned last year

69
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: the Chargers, I had one of the same sideline over there.

70
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: I got smacked on the sideline. So just be smart

71
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: and know you almost got to accelerate or get down

72
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: or you know, do something over there. But I think

73
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: you know, Jackson makes some good plays at his feet,

74
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: so he's tough to he's tough to handle.

75
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 3: Your coach didn't look at you and give you one

76
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 3: of these or anything like that.

77
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think you needed I don't think you

78
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: need to. You heard the hit from the sin, so

79
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: I think everybody in the stadium knew.

80
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 3: And on the left.

81
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: Hey Drake, uh, excuse me.

82
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: Just as far as tonight, you know what it went

83
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: as planned and what might have surprised you if anything.

84
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: I think starting fast, I think starting fast win is planned.

85
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: That's what we wanted to do. I think, uh, you

86
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: have some play designs that that coach had and uh

87
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: we practiced all week that that worked. And you know,

88
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 1: I think that that's the biggest thing is that you

89
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: knew they had a new coordinator calling it for the

90
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: first time, so they're gonna bring something some stuff that

91
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: we didn't expect. And I think we tried to you

92
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: handle the guys up front. They got a great rush,

93
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: great players up front. I thought the guys did that

94
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: all night them. One sack we had was was my fault.

95
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: And I think from there, I think just coach saying

96
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: no naps. I think we need to do a better

97
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: job and second half of uh, you know, living that

98
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: and you know, put them out of reach and getting

99
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: in across midfield and putting a drive together. Score touch.

100
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: Now, hey, Drake, backups today at left tackle and left guard.

101
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 3: What was the key for you guys on offense to

102
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 3: kind of minimize that packed I guess.

103
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: I told him I had a full faith them. You know,

104
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: we got a lot of reps last year of dropping

105
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: back and you'll trust those guys and I think they're

106
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: great players, and they stepped up. Like I said in

107
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: pre game, I think they stepped up all year. You know,

108
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: anybody's been thrown in the fire, and just proud of them,

109
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: Proud of them for you working hard and learning this offense.

110
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: And you'll staying on the same page and be on

111
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: the same page all night and doing a great job tonight, Drake.

112
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 4: Sort of a two prime question. How cognizant were you

113
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 4: guys of the buy and wanting to win going into

114
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 4: the buy? And secondly, how much of a need is

115
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 4: this team in need of this buy for both the

116
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 4: physical and mental standpoint?

117
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, uh, you know, won the win before

118
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 1: the bye. You were trying to, you know, want to

119
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: win every game, and I know it's uh maybe you

120
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: know kind of don't want to you know, leave off

121
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: on the buy on a bad foot with a whole

122
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: Monday night game. So I think it was important for

123
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: us to you'll play on Monday night and you know,

124
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 1: shove up for for our fans. And you know, it

125
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: was a game that we didn't want to take lightly

126
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: and I think the guys did that. Probably those guys

127
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: for that. And then uh yeah, the bye week's huge.

128
00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 1: It felt like a long time coming, but uh, you

129
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 1: we're here and we got some important football after the

130
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: bye week. So we're looking forward to you'll stay in

00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: and getting healthy and having guys you'll want to get better.

132
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: And I'm looking forward to you'll get some guys back

133
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: and then make a uh you'll make a pushment when

00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: football you start to count down the road.

135
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 5: Drake, Have you ever been on this kind of role

136
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 5: in either this sport or any other sport?

00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: but I think you're back in high school. So we

141
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: won thirteen straight. But you know, really I think, you know,

142
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: in college, I think we may have won eight or

143
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: nine straight. Yeah, football, you know, both in football, but no,
