1 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,319 Speaker 1: Welcome into the game, playing with head coach and dan 2 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 1: Quinn Logan Pulse and I'm your host, Brian Covid Jr. 3 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: We're here in the Big Bear AI Command Center studio 4 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: coach overtime at the crib. It didn't go our way, However, 5 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: moments like that have to give us some momentum and 6 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: some extra energy. 7 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 2: Right. 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 3: I don't know about momentum, but man, do you love 9 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 3: being in fights like that? It is the absolute best, Brian, 10 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 3: when you're in fights that go back and forth, you 11 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 3: throw a punch, take one back and forth, going into overtime. 12 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 3: So I liked us raising our standards and our goal 13 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 3: is can we get better from the weak prior can 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 3: we find things we can improve upon? And so to 15 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 3: see that take place, I'm excited about what's next, knowing 16 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 3: that we raised it, you know, in that week, to 17 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 3: say this is what we want to see, a practice, 18 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 3: we want to see in the game, and so I'm 19 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 3: certain we'll nail that moment when it comes again. 20 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: It just seems like everybody's playing with a little bit 21 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 2: more confidence in Madrid, or did something happen there that 22 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 2: kind of galvanized that just some time away. 23 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 3: Or both of it. I would say after you know, 24 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 3: you go through tough stretch, like having some space to emotionally, physically, 25 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 3: mentally clear it and reset, knowing, like set your jaw, 26 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 3: this is what we have to go get done and 27 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 3: doing it together. That's what's the awesome part of our team. 28 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 3: It's the connective group knowing that they are going to 29 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 3: fight for one another, and that fight was on full display. 30 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 3: It wasn't all perfect, and that's never going to be 31 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: the case, but man, if we fight like that, we'll 32 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: love the results on this next five games. 33 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: And culture has to help getting one seven back. A 34 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: guy like Terry McLaurin back, who's not only one of 35 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 1: the best players on the field, but also a leader. 36 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: How did he impact this offense? 37 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 3: In your words, you know, it's it's not just the 38 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 3: catches that he makes, although they're significant, but it's also 39 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 3: what happens to other players. You know, now there's another 40 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 3: person that gets let's lean to him, let's help to there, 41 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 3: and now another player. So that's a there's a bit 42 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 3: of a multiplying effect when you add more playmakers onto 43 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: a group. It's not just that one. It's because you 44 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 3: can't double on one person. Knowing it's you know, somebody 45 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 3: else could be exposed. But the experience, the you know, 46 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: like the touchdown, you know, coming back underneath where the 47 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: Rubb route the Debo to him coming back underneath, like 48 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 3: that takes timing, That takes you know, work to do that. 49 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 3: And so man, it was like instantly I could feel 50 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 3: the energy, you know, change from what he brought to 51 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 3: the team. 52 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and again I was going to say, you said 53 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: kind of alluded to this, but like, Zach has a 54 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 2: huge day and I think a big reason of it 55 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: is because Terry is there. Right, He's got a match 56 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 2: up on a safety and that's one that he can 57 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 2: win as opposed to drawing a better coverage matchup. What'd 58 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: you see from him? And it was I'm sure it 59 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 2: was great to see him be so productive. 60 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: And matching corners. Where is that going to go? And 61 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 3: how's that going to look? And why you know it 62 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 3: is you know, Debo have a chance and to go. 63 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 3: So those things I think are important. So I would 64 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 3: say it opens up other parts of the offense. So 65 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: when you add people into it, and so that's a 66 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 3: really big deal. 67 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: And since we're talking Zach, I have to add to it. 68 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: Top five all time now and receptions for a tight end. 69 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: You continue to watch these guys here and make history. 70 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: How valuable is that for you as a cult seeing 71 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: guys continue to push the ball. 72 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's standards, Brian, That's what you want 73 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 3: to think of. Although we're not going to have a 74 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: winning record this season, like we're building a winning program 75 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 3: and that takes habits to take standards. And so when 76 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 3: you watch Zach saying after catching on the jugs, like 77 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 3: he consistently does the things that are boring to everyone else, 78 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: but he does them, and he stays consistent, and over 79 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: and over again he'll do them and you just can't 80 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 3: help but notice there's something that he's doing that I 81 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 3: need to be doing. And so guys like he or 82 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: Wags have standards that are winning and that that helps, 83 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 3: and so seeing him consistently push for that, that's a big. 84 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 2: Deal with those guys specifically, Are the players falling around 85 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: like little ducklings trying. 86 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 3: Of it's hard to keep up with like a Wagner 87 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 3: like I've seen many five am in the weight room 88 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 3: for a little bit of time, Yes, but to see 89 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 3: it the whole season, I don't see it as often, 90 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 3: but there's definitely impact tight ends you know that they've 91 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 3: made seeing those standards. I think other positions too, there's 92 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 3: insights to gain like what you see, why did you stop? 93 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 3: You know? What do you see on this zone? So 94 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: there's definitely things that you can see. And it also 95 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,799 Speaker 3: shows like you don't need you know, eight thousand different plays, 96 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: you know, do this one over and over again. What's 97 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 3: like the Bruce Lead quote of like if you're not 98 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 3: the man who you know has ten thousand kicks, but 99 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 3: does one kick ten thousand times? As Zach like certain 100 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 3: routes that he can run down the red zone like 101 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,679 Speaker 3: over and over and over again. He doesn't get bored 102 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 3: doing them. He can do it, you know, at the 103 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: elite level. And Terry had you know some of that 104 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 3: as well in some of the routes. So it's a 105 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: big deal to happen. 106 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: Back and coach, I love you talked about that one 107 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: kick because sometimes it only takes one catch to make 108 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: a name for yourself, and that's what Traylon Burks did, 109 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,799 Speaker 1: yes with that phenomenal snag like Odell Beckham junior. Back there, coach, 110 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: talk about that play and what went right because there's 111 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: so many things that can go wrong in the play 112 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: that play right there when exactly I was supposed to. 113 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 3: Go look like as a as a play called on offense, 114 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 3: you want to know when there's tells what is it? 115 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 3: Man is a zone because certain plays are better against 116 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 3: man and man certain ones are better against zone. And 117 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 3: in Denver specific case, they wanted to play more man 118 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: demand down in the low red zone, so you have 119 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 3: options where do you want to go? Those are matchups 120 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 3: and so for Marcus to know where to go that 121 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,119 Speaker 3: specific throw and to throw it up high enough that Trey, 122 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 3: who's got this size and length you know, can go 123 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 3: get it. So he was the only one that was 124 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: going to catch me. And so you watch him elevate 125 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 3: at practice and you say, Okay, this guy's got real hops. 126 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 3: But the one handed part that was a lot different, 127 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: you know. I think coming back from the game, my 128 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: wife told me that Odell even had texted him thirteen 129 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 3: to thirteen. So I thought, that's the game, pay and respect, 130 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 3: that's the brotherhood of the NFL. And so it was 131 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 3: definitely you guys had a much better view than me. 132 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 3: It was on I'm on the field level side. So 133 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 3: when everybody started yelling. I just started yelling, what the 134 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 3: hell I was joining it? That's what I'm talking about, 135 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 3: that zero idea, how he called it. 136 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 2: So what's his process? 137 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 3: Mean? 138 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 2: He's new and he's kind of had some adversity to 139 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: his career, Like, yeah, how's he been integrating into the prot. 140 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 3: He's even had some here in his first game, like 141 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 3: fingers split open and broken and surgery on that. So 142 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 3: it didn't get to come to Madrid, you know, for 143 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 3: the game and knowing coming back the splint on it 144 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 3: to get it. If you had saw what it looked 145 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 3: like coming in, you're thinking like, how in the hell 146 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 3: is this guy going to play? But he's hungry Logan. 147 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 3: I think there's like a hunger to him about wanting 148 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: to prove it, and I think we want to give 149 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 3: him that space to express how he can play. And 150 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 3: so he's worked his ass off from the time he 151 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 3: got here early mornings to get right to learn it, 152 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 3: and now he's goetting even more playing time due to that. 153 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 3: And so he's a guy man that's on the rise. 154 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 3: And we always have space for people that love to compete, 155 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 3: and so he is fitting that bill, you. 156 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: Know, perfectly, And we talked about you getting in a witness. 157 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: History wasn't just on the officsive side, it's on the 158 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: defensive side as well. Bobby Wagner continues to make history, 159 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: continues to do big things. And that interception, it came 160 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: white to him, however, he still had it going down 161 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: with it. He caught it how many. 162 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 3: I thought it was good because you know, like like 163 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 3: he's got plenty of experience of playing in the zone 164 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: and so on that particular interception, they're trying to throw 165 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,559 Speaker 3: one behind him, and how do I have a vision 166 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: on the quarterback so I can make a break to go. 167 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 3: And so sometimes you match somebody the flat, you match 168 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 3: him to the flat. Now you don't, and so having 169 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: the ability to you know, do both, that's a big 170 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 3: deal where you can change the look. But it was 171 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 3: so funny talking to him Sunday morning. I went, you know, 172 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 3: down to watch film and he was already you know, leaving, 173 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 3: and I said, man, you're gonna get the ball today. 174 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna be a fumber recovery interceptions. Well, like 175 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 3: we had talked about it, and I just felt it. 176 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 3: And so that was a big play for us in 177 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. You know, where that was where we 178 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 3: needed it the most. And so I thought, that's like 179 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 3: him to come up in the biggest moments. 180 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And you know, he's such an interesting guy because 181 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: you knew him like when you kind of first started 182 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 2: out your time in Seattle, Like, do you guys, how's 183 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: the communication? Does he helped you kind of as you've 184 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: started calling places for the defense? 185 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 3: For sure, I lean in on is there more or 186 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 3: less anything that you want to see or anything that 187 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 3: you take out? And he would communicate with me if 188 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 3: there was more of them are good And so I said, okay. 189 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 3: But he's very disciplined in what he does and how 190 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: he goes about it. He's able to communicate directed. But 191 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 3: the best thing that he does, man, can he tackle. 192 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 3: He's stays square, He's got leverage. He knows how to 193 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 3: do it, like that's everybody has that superpower and like 194 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 3: for him, that's it is tackling and uh, space tackles, 195 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 3: inline tackles, chasing, like he just is rarely out of position. 196 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 3: Like his spatial awareness of how to tackle is at 197 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 3: a level that's like zero came for me and the coaching. 198 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 3: This guy, like forever is going to be known as 199 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 3: one of the best tacklers in our game. 200 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: And there's that intensity that Bobby Wagner carries and I 201 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: look at a guy like dron payin the same thing. 202 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: We always say this on game day, prom time players 203 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: and make prom TM plays. Dan Paying once again on 204 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: prom Tom made some prom Tom plays. How great was 205 00:08:58,240 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: it to have him back in the fold and kind 206 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: of seeing him be able to rise to the case. 207 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: I thought he'd have a chance to impact the game 208 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 3: inside when he and JK together, they're a problem. And 209 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: so the running game was what I hoped it would 210 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 3: continue to look like moving forward. But they were a 211 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 3: big part of that. To create some negative plays, to 212 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 3: be disruptive inside and when you're playing, you know, some 213 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 3: safeties deep and not down by the box. You need 214 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 3: these big guys to throw people around. And fortunately for us, 215 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 3: they're more than capable of doing that. 216 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: And coach this Minnesota team and closing has so many 217 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 1: different weapons. It's so many different ways to get you right. 218 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: We don't know who will be playing quarterback, We don't 219 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: know what it's going to be looking like out there. However, 220 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 1: there are a lot of weapons out there. This guy 221 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: like Justin Jefferson, how new game plan for offense like this, Yeah. 222 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 3: I think you want to go back and look, you know, 223 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 3: over the last couple of years, you know, and how 224 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 3: they use them and what skills they're like. They've got 225 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 3: a good system you know, in place, and so they 226 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 3: may have new quarterback or you know, new people at 227 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 3: different spots, but the system is consistent and how they 228 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 3: go and attack, and so you want to look at 229 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 3: those find matchups, what do you do, what you do differently. 230 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 3: We've played them in the past before, you know, what 231 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 3: was effective, what wasn't, and so you know, we'll be ready. 232 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 3: We got plenty of you know, ideas and thoughts of 233 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 3: how to go about that. But you're right, tight end 234 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 3: and receivers and running back, you know, like, man, these 235 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 3: guys got a fantastic skill group. And defensively, like their backers. 236 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: I like the speed they play. They got safeties with skill, 237 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 3: they've got rushers. So I like to blitz a lot 238 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 3: of different variations of zone. So catching run plays, offensively, 239 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 3: finding our ways to continue to move the change. That's 240 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 3: a big deal. We had a number of drives last 241 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 3: week that were ten plays, eleven plays, eighteen plays. That's 242 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 3: the best thing defensively, you can you know, hope for 243 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 3: is that your offense continues to you know, possess the 244 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: ball and work down the field. So when we do 245 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 3: that together, that's our best version of complimentary football right now, and. 246 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: Coach, we have no doubt that y'all will be ready 247 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: for some nice game before we do that. Got to 248 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 1: get into film study with Logan falls and coach appreciations. 249 00:10:55,240 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 1: I'll see back in command is family before we hear 250 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: more from our head coach Dan Quinn. If you are 251 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 1: listening on audio platforms, make sure you go to Command 252 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: as YouTube page right now so you can check out 253 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: the film room between Logan Paulson and head coach Dan Quinn. 254 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: Now for more from head coach Dan Quinn. Coaches always 255 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: we appreciate sh time. Now, this is a first of 256 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: back to back road games for us. What is the 257 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: key to getting a win on the road out here 258 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: in Minnesota? 259 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, the first thing is being able to handle the noise. 260 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 3: You know, you want to stay on schedule, Brian offensively. 261 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 3: You know, if you can make that equal, then man, 262 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 3: you got to even playing field. So got to use 263 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 3: the cadence you know as our weapon. Though we have 264 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 3: different ways through silent. That'll be a big deal. Creating 265 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 3: some takeaways defensively for us, that's gonna be a number 266 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 3: one top of the pile. Give our offense some more 267 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 3: shots and more cracks at it. If we do those 268 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 3: two things, stay on schedule. Make sure you know even 269 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 3: that out different cadences that we go, we'll be really 270 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 3: ready to attack them. 271 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: And I gotta imagine Burgney and Gold fans we making 272 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 1: some noise too, so that'll help as well. COO, to 273 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: appreciate your time. As always, this has been the game 274 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: plan with head coach Dan Quinn, Logan Paulson, and I'm 275 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: your host Brian Cover Junior.
