1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: All right, Marcus, So you set a franchise record for

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: punt returns today yardage wise. Just let's begin with the

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: first one. It seemed like you gave your team a spark.

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: What were your what was your thinking? Take us through that?

5
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: And how good did it feel to get it to

6
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: the end zone?

7
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? First off, man, it's a blessing.

8
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 3: They told me about that after the game and I

9
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 3: was like, I wasn't thinking about that, but no, that's crazy.

10
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 3: But the first plunt, the main thing that I always

11
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 3: think about is getting the first first down. That's the

12
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 3: first thing that I was thinking about, and just getting

13
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: the offense in a great position. I had someone on

14
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 3: my leg for a little minute, but then I got

15
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 3: out and I was like, let me try to find

16
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 3: some blocking and everything. But I commend my teammates because

17
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 3: they never stopped whenever you know they could, and you

18
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 3: know they blocked the guys that didn't need to block

19
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 3: for sure to end up opening up lanes.

20
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 4: So, Marcus, does breaking that first tackle open things up

21
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: in a in a different way? And are you aware

22
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 4: of that as it's happening, Because when they're holding you up,

23
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 4: the guys are going over to try to like finish

24
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 4: you off, where as opposed to if you're you know,

25
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 4: in space there they're trying to cover ground.

26
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of guys whenever one person is getting held,

27
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 3: you know, they're either trying to get the ball or

28
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 3: you know, do big hits and stuff like that. So

29
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 3: being able to get out of that first tackle helps

30
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 3: out from the sense of getting to the edge and

31
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 3: then you know, go from there.

32
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 4: Is it just instinctive stuff for not only you, but

33
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 4: for the guys in front of you to start to

34
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 4: start figuring out who to block. Then when when the

35
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 4: initial plan changes.

36
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 3: We always talk about it as a special team unit.

37
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 3: You know, if you have a guy that you can't block,

38
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 3: go to the next level. So the next level is

39
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 3: a big thing because sometimes when you get through the

40
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 3: first wave, you know, it's like all right, let me

41
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 3: get the guys that can chase from behind or things

42
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 3: like that, because most of the time when returners they're running,

43
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 3: they might cut back and things like that.

44
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 5: And Marcus, congrats in your big day today.

45
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: Appreciate it.

46
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 5: On the broadcast, they were surprised you didn't fair catch

47
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 5: the punt that you took back. Yeah, pretty deep. Do

48
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 5: you have like given your skills. Do you have like

49
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 5: special rules with the coaches that you're allowed to return more?

50
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 5: Did you think about fair catching there? Well, you know

51
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 5: what went through your mind.

52
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 3: I guess I'm pretty roofless back there. So mainly what

53
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 3: I kind of worry about is the gunners. You know,

54
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 3: if the gunners are blocked, then I'm like, all right,

55
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 3: I can kind of return it. So I had a

56
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 3: little bit of space, and I was just like, man,

57
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 3: I know, those guys trust me a lot and everything,

58
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 3: and I trust them, you know, to make the right block.

59
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,119
Speaker 2: So they kind of went from there.

60
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 6: Hey, Marcus, I couldn't believe that you didn't fair catch

61
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 6: it either. But on the return there, once you got

62
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 6: to the sidemine, obviously you guys had set up the

63
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 6: return once you got into open space. What's your mindset there?

64
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 6: Obviously you want to finish, but you're also hoping that

65
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 6: the guys you mentioned, the gunners that aren't blocking, don't

66
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 6: don't get a piece of a guy from behind. What's

67
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 6: your mindset there's you're making that cut and trying to

68
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 6: get vertical.

69
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: It's pretty simple, run fast, don't get caught. That's the

70
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 3: main thing that I kind of think about.

71
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 7: Because you're a punt return. Three years ago, it basically

72
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 7: won the game against the Jets. This one, you know,

73
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 7: it started forty two unanswered points. Just talk about your

74
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 7: impact on the game in terms of what happened afterwards.

75
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I said, the first first down is the

76
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 3: main thing that I kind of think about. But you know,

77
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 3: having a momentum, especially at home, you know, it drives

78
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 3: everyone and basically we're like, hey, you know, we.

79
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: Started off with that, but now we need to add

80
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 2: on from there.

81
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 3: So I'm glad, you know, to end up sparking the

82
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 3: team and kind of going from there.

83
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 2: So I'm done.

84
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,839
Speaker 8: From Marcus, I have to ask you about the second one,

85
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 8: the long one. Yeah, are you gonna are you gonna

86
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 8: hear this about this for a long time?

87
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: Are sure how that play? Yeah?

88
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 3: So whenever it happened. And what's crazy is usually when

89
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 3: someone gets tackled, they get tackled right then and there.

90
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 3: But I got clipped and then ran and fell, and

91
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: I was just like, ooh, I know they gonna say

92
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 3: some stuff about me in the meeting room. So I'm

93
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 3: here from there, I'm here from my family. But it's

94
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 3: part of the game and everything.

95
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 9: So yeah, hey Marcus, just on the two returns kind

96
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 9: of together. Are there things you see on the first

97
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 9: one that, Okay, this worked so I can go back

98
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 9: to it, or are you looking for adjustments when you

99
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 9: go back out for the next one. How hard is

100
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 9: it to have a second big punt return in a

101
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 9: game after they've already seen kind of what you can

102
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 9: do on a first big one.

103
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 2: Yes, it's a chess game. You you do run one

104
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 2: return and you take account.

105
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 3: And also I asked my teammates like what if they

106
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 3: ended up doing on this, like are they trying to

107
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 3: get outside or are they trying to you know, run

108
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: straight to the ball. So I kind of, you know,

109
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 3: talk to my gunners and talk to my guys that's

110
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 3: on a punt return team, and then we take account

111
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 3: for it.

112
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 10: Last question.

113
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 11: You might have already answered this, I apologize, but just

114
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 11: what changed defensively, you know, from the first drive to

115
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 11: you guys settling down from your view?

116
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:57,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, communication, you know, as a game go on, of course,

117
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 3: you know, we don't want the guys to score at all,

118
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 3: you know, but whenever we do get back to the sideline,

119
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: we make the adjustments and just communicate and then play

120
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 3: our football.

121
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: That's the main thing. Thank you guys.

122
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 12: Everybody's so comfortable.

123
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 2: See how y'all doing.

124
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: Just your thoughts on getting a team with victory, but

125
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: also your quarterback said a little bit a while ago, said,

126
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: on your day, city looked a little faster than I

127
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: thought when he was talking about it, just kind of

128
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: what was the day like for you and this football team.

129
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 12: It was explosive. Obviously, we wanted to start fast. It

130
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 12: was something that we had a point of emphasis back

131
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 12: to the basics after last week. I think we just

132
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 12: wanted to come out and be us. It was a

133
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 12: big thing is just being us and falling in the

134
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 12: trap of you know, what's in front of us or

135
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 12: what's behind us. Being us was crucial and he had

136
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 12: a hell of a day. You know, he's a good quarterback.

137
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 12: You know he's starting to come along, as you can see,

138
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 12: he looks sharp out there. I'm just excited for the

139
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 12: future and just want to keep building off. Look forward

140
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 12: to going to work tomorrow watching the things that I

141
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 12: could have done better. I kind of already know I

142
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 12: was a little harder myself about I'll try to do

143
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 12: have a perfect day, but you know, things aren't perfect.

144
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 12: But I'm super excited for us to come me being

145
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 12: a little faster. You know, it's in spurts Man shure

146
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 12: here and there.

147
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 13: It's about I'm just curious.

148
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 11: It was your i think thirty seventh one game with

149
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 11: over one hundred receiving yards.

150
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 3: Just what did what allowed for you to have that

151
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 3: type of production today out in the field.

152
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 12: Quarterback finding open man old line blocking really well, you know,

153
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 12: receivers getting open. I'm not by myself out there, so

154
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 12: you know, I'm just trying to do my job. I

155
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,559
Speaker 12: kind of stressed that over the past couple of weeks,

156
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 12: and you know, since I've been talking to y'all since

157
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 12: like training camp, as far as like just doing my job,

158
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 12: I think it's, uh, it's going to turn. It's always

159
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 12: going to turn. The tide would turning after the past

160
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 12: couple of weeks. You know, I think just blocking and

161
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 12: doing the extra stuff and doing the little things things

162
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:50,919
Speaker 12: always open up for you. You know what I'm saying. We

163
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 12: got a lot of guys that can make a lot

164
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 12: of explosive plays. As you can see today, the running

165
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 12: backs play their play their tails off, and then even

166
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 12: the tight ends always hooping, you know, So I like

167
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 12: just being a receiver out There's a lot of weapons

168
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 12: out there, and me doing my job is enough. So uh,

169
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 12: that's all. It was team football, good companmentity football. A

170
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 12: lot of short fields too. Because Marcus shout out to

171
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 12: Marks so Fels.

172
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 11: Why is it important for you to give the pregame

173
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 11: speeches and what was your message to the team today?

174
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 2: I feel like.

175
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 12: It was hard for me, Like you know, through the

176
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 12: past couple of weeks, I kind of want to do

177
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 12: more and I want to show more. I want to,

178
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 12: you know, be a leader, but I feel like it

179
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 12: comes from consistency, especially like in practice, and you know,

180
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 12: God's leaning on you and trusting you that you're doing

181
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 12: the right thing all the time. I feel like part

182
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 12: of being a leader is being accountable you know what

183
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 12: I'm saying, and not when everybody's around. Just accountable, full time,

184
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 12: full circle and holding guys to a standard. But you

185
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 12: can't hold gods to a standard you're not holding yourself.

186
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 12: So that's the biggest thing for me. It's important for

187
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 12: me to uh started a pre games speech because I

188
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 12: want to ever get everybody going. I'm a high energy guy,

189
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 12: charismatic guy, come with a lot of energy, and a

190
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 12: lot of passions. So I feel like that's part of

191
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 12: the reason why they brought me here is to be

192
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 12: that guy.

193
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: So just trying to be myself looking ahead, what are

194
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 2: you oh?

195
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 12: I also defer to anybody if they want to do

196
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,400

200
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 12: a crazy atmosphere. Obviously, I've spent a lot of years there.

201
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 12: You know what I'm saying. They got one of the

202
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 12: best fan bases in the game. It's not the best

203
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 12: fan base, so shout out to them. I just feel

204
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 12: like it's gonna be exciting. I feel like we gotta

205
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 12: do the same thing we did last week, get back

206
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 12: to the basics. The hell of a football team. You know,

207
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 12: it's in the division. You know the division. They say

208
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 12: it's one game with the Damnar count as two and

209
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 12: it's hard to win on the road. So we got

210
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 12: going with the right mindset, playing a real good football team,

211
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 12: well coached football team, and a lot of a lot

212
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 12: of good players over there. Shout out to Josh, so

213
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 12: I look forward to the challenge. I know the guys

214
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 12: look forward to the challenge. It's gonna be it's gonna

215
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,599
Speaker 12: be good for us. It's good test for us.

216
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 9: Steph all the way to the right here, if you

217
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 9: could just walk us through the two big ones, the

218
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 9: crosser and the back shoulder.

219
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 2: Just what did you see on those plays?

220
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 12: Same stuff we tried in practice as far as like

221
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 12: finding the open space. You know, it's not I try

222
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 12: not to make it like sound like them and rocket times.

223
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 12: I've been doing this for a long time, and you know,

224
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 12: just being where I'm supposed to be when I'm supposed

225
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 12: to be there, being reliable, you know, trying to build

226
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 12: that consistency with Drake. You know, I feel like the

227
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 12: consistency brings that confidence, you know, from the from the

228
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 12: receiver position, you know, quarterbacks like seeing guys open. So

229
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 12: he has a hell of a ball, I say, very

230
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 12: catchable ball.

231
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: So I just try to do my job.

232
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 11: Mike reesing the back define up here. We've talked about

233
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 11: or you've talked about eating what's on your plate, making

234
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 11: sure you don't leave any crumbs.

235
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 2: Exactly what did your plate look like after this one?

236
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 12: I left something out there that one now I probably

237
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 12: could have came back and tried to catch the ball,

238
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 12: trying to get on the same page. Just that game.

239
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 12: Inside the game, you know the things that you see,

240
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 12: the things that you got to react fast, and you know,

241
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 12: being available for the quarterback. So and when I say

242
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 12: eating with some of my plate, it's not just like

243
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 12: routes and stuff like that. I had to play where

244
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 12: I lined up wrong early on, I had to get

245
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 12: up lined up late. So you know, it's it's everything

246
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 12: that ties into us. I try to play a perfect

247
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 12: game so I can be the example, so I can

248
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 12: be a leader. So when it comes down and getting

249
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 12: and catch the ball to get they paid me to

250
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 12: do that. I've been doing it for a long time

251
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 12: and I'm gonna continue to do so. So I'm super excited.

252
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 12: I look forward to getting back to work after the game.

253
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 12: That's only that's been on my mind is getting back

254
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 12: to work tomorrow, you know, correcting little things as long

255
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 12: as it's not effort and finished.

256
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 2: I'm confident.

257
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 14: Hi, Steph, I know you've had quite a few games

258
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 14: like this over the course of your career, but a

259
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 14: few given where you're coming from post acl surgery. How

260
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 14: important was a game like this for you to have

261
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 14: going forward?

262
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 12: It's such a football is a it's a loyal sport.

263
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 12: But it's not what I'm saying, like, you can't you

264
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 12: can't cheat the process, you can't cheat the game. You

265
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 12: gotta put the time in, you gotta put the effort in.

266
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 12: And I feel like it's been a slow build up

267
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 12: throughout the past couple of weeks, and I had to

268
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 12: keep my eyes on it in the front of me.

269
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 12: What I'm saying now, what's behind me? And obviously I

270
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 12: fought back. I was injured, and I'm saying it was

271
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 12: something that waghed on me for a long time, and

272
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 12: I was just fighting to get back, you know, fighting

273
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 12: to get back and be on another team. And I'm saying,

274
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 12: prove it again, not only prove it to everybody was,

275
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 12: but proved to myself. I knew that I could do it.

276
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 12: I'm saying, I was confident, but when things like this

277
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 12: turned the corner, Like it's like when you when you

278
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 12: work extremely hard and you're consistent and you don't waver

279
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 12: and the tide turns just like this. This is why

280
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 12: you're consistent, This is why you don't waiver. This is

281
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 12: why you don't flinch. My biggest thing is on flinch, Like,

282
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 12: no matter what's going on around me, my four focus

283
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 12: is fort ball. I love ball. So when things like

284
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 12: this happen, it's just the consistency, consistency and the hard

285
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 12: work and when it pays. I was like, all right, now,

286
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 12: get your sorry, get your back to work. You know,

287
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 12: obviously it feels good in the moment. I'm gona enjoy

288
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 12: it for twelve hours, not even twenty four, and then

289
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 12: we just gonna get back to work.

290
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 8: Thank you, Stephanie. You were just talking about, you know,

291
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 8: turning the corner of the tide turns. How much better

292
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 8: do you feel today than you did in week one

293
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 8: or even over the summer.

294
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 12: This is crazy because you know, even tackled in week

295
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 12: one that I hadn't been tackled in so many months,

296
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 12: but wanting that contact and missing that contact. You know,

297
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 12: if you play football, you gotta be a little crazy.

298
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 12: I think I'm a lot of crazy, but you know,

299
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 12: we'll figure that out later. So it's a tail of

300
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 12: two winds, like putting in that time, putting in that grind,

301
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 12: being on a new team, and you know, throughout camps,

302
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 12: like I feel like, as hard as you grind, you

303
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 12: don't know what it's gonna be to the seasons here,

304
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 12: you know what I'm saying, Like everybody has a lot

305
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 12: to say about this, that, and the third, but when

306
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 12: that season gets here, that's when the pedal hits the metal.

307
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 12: And I just feel like you get your confidence from,

308
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 12: you know, growing within the system and getting used to

309
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 12: a system, get used to a quarterback, and all these

310
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 12: things are brand new to me seeing that I'm on

311
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 12: a new team, But I feel like my focus has

312
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 12: always been grinding and I'm gonna figure it out. Like

313
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 12: what I'm saying, I gotta put the work in regardless,

314
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 12: but it's a tailor of two winds. What I'm saying,

315
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 12: I'm still gonna put the work in, and I'm probably

316
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 12: gonna work a little extra harder now just because going right,

317
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 12: excuse my language. Things going right, you can't relax and

318
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 12: you can't get complacent.

319
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 6: Stephine right right over here, how would you categorize your

320
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 6: comfort level in the offense now? Especially after today, your

321
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 6: first big game in the Patriots uniform? How would you

322
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 6: categorize your comfort level in the system right now?

323
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 2: Five out of ten.

324
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 12: You know, take it with a grain of salt. Obviously,

325
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 12: having success is not it's week to week, you know

326
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 12: what I'm saying. It's been a slow ramp up or

327
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 12: build up that I didn't even notice through these past

328
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 12: four weeks. So coming out a quarter the quarter of

329
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 12: the season, the first quarter, two two is not bad.

330
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,599
Speaker 12: Could it be better? Yes, So for me, I just

331
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 12: take it with a grain of salt. Being comfortable is

332
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 12: I guess it's a state of mind because I still

333
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 12: got to study, I still got to flip the pages,

334
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 12: I still got to grind. So being comfortable in the

335
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 12: offense is like, you know, you're making your coach comfortable,

336
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 12: You're making plays, you're getting open, you showing that you

337
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 12: know what to do on a consistent basis, and you're

338
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 12: making plays for your quarterback. I think it helps everybody out.

339
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 12: So for me, I just say five out of ten

340
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 12: because you never want to get too comfortable.

341
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: Thank y'all.

342
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: Oh Christian, let's just begin with how good did it

343
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: feel for you to get out there, just start playing

344
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: football again?

345
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 2: And what was your day like as our health and

346
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 2: and with the defense.

347
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean it was it was great to get

348
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 15: out there. Like I talked about earlier in the week,

349
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 15: all I do and want to do is play football.

350
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 15: So it was fun to finally get out there, get

351
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 15: out there in a home game and crowd was rocking,

352
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,439
Speaker 15: and being out there with the guys, it was a

353
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 15: lot of fun.

354
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 11: Guys, Christian, how would you describe Marcus Jones play in

355
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 11: terms of its impact on the game.

356
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean he's he's a playmaker. Everybody knows he's

357
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 15: a playmaker. I feel like once he once he took

358
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 15: that first one back and feel like it took all

359
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 15: that energy from Carolina away and you know, it just

360
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 15: turned everybody up. It was It was great to great

361
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 15: to see him make those plays because he worked so hard,

362
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 15: but we all know what he's capable of, and it

363
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 15: was awesome to see it.

364
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 6: Hey, Christian, uh, talk about coming back and facing someone

365
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 6: like Tap mcmill and bigger receiver, young re who can

366
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 6: present some matchup problems. How good was that for you

367
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 6: to come back and have to lock up against a

368
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 6: guy like that.

369
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 15: Yeah, tests a test, a great young player. I played

370
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 15: him in college, so I kind of knew a little

371
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 15: bit about him. We were in the same area and

372
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 15: offseason when he was training, so I talked to him

373
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 15: a good amount.

374
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a great receiver.

375
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 15: He he's like you said, he's big, he's tall, but

376
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 15: he can he can run good routes. He's he's pretty

377
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 15: crafty for for how young he is. And I mean

378
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 15: he went out there and we had a good battle

379
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 15: and it was it was fun. It was it was

380
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 15: needed to, you know, see game speed again. I've been

381
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 15: out there since a long time, so it was fun

382
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 15: to get out there with with with Tet and and

383
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 15: all those guys.

384
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,119
Speaker 9: Christian, thanks, Yeah, you talked a lot about how emotionally

385
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 9: you wanted to get back out there. You're a football

386
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 9: player and being out there physically and wondering how you

387
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 9: felt getting back out there and playing all those snaps today.

388
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean it was anything is can be a

389
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 15: little challenging. We're not doing it for a long time,

390
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 15: but at the end of the day, I've done this

391
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 15: since I was five years old, so you know, kind

392
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 15: of my my mindset going into the game today was

393
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 15: not really think of how long it's been and and

394
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 15: like that, just it's another football game. Just go out there,

395
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 15: be be my five year old self and go out there.

396
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 15: And just you know, have fun, have that joy of

397
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 15: just being back on the field. So that was how

398
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 15: that's how that went.

399
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 16: Christian following that up a little bit, how long in

400
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 16: your mind is it going to take you, even the

401
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 16: best players coming back the way you have. I'm gonna

402
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 16: need time to get up to speed, so to speak,

403
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 16: in terms of being game shape, game action. How long

404
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 16: do you think it's gonna take you in terms of

405
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 16: in games to get to back to where you are

406
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 16: able to play the way you want to play.

407
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean it's it's hard to just give a

408
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 15: straight answer to that. I mean, I just gotta get back,

409
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 15: watch the film and just take it week by week,

410
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 15: day by day, and you know, just just make the

411
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 15: place that come my way be here for be be

412
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 15: on the field for the defense, be on the field

413
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 15: for the team, and just do what I gotta do.

414
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 7: When you mentioned the challenges with coming back, like, what

415
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 7: are some examples of that?

416
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 2: Is it the conditioning?

417
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 7: Like what particularly do you find more challenging.

418
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean.

419
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 15: It's it's tough to not play for a long time

420
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 15: and and then go out there and and I mean

421
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 15: it was it was pretty hot today. I mean it

422
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 15: was a pretty hot Foxborough day, But I mean it

423
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 15: was great football weather.

424
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 2: It's little challenges.

425
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,959
Speaker 15: I mean, just you know, getting your legs under you,

426
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 15: just just you know, getting back in that in that rhythm.

427
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 15: I mean, corner is kind of all about rhythm. It's

428
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 15: you just got to get in your groove. So it's

429
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 15: it is what it is, and you know, I'm just

430
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 15: taking it.

431
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 2: Day by day. Thank you all.

432
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 6: I'll have to perform.

433
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 2: You say what you like the motion?

434
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:56,719
Speaker 12: Oh?

435
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 13: I like score points. That's really all that matters than

436
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 13: an offense is can you score points? So to be

437
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 13: able to put points up and score in the red

438
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 13: zone and complete passes is great.

439
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 17: And what do you think kind of opened that up

440
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 17: for you guys today, especially the amount of explosive places

441
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 17: that we saw.

442
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, I gotta go back to confidentiary ball,

443
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 13: whether it's on special teams of the defense making big

444
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 13: stops when we get the ball in plus territory, it's

445
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 13: it makes it a little bit easier and you're when

446
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 13: you walk on the field, it's kind of like when

447
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 13: the defense walks on the field and they're backed up

448
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 13: on their own one or whatever. You get this confidence

449
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 13: of like, hey, we can go to score. We're on

450
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 13: the fifty already, like the end zones right there.

451
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 2: Back, what's up teams with things?

452
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 13: Oh, it's great. He's a competitor, plays really hard, prepare

453
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 13: as well, and you know it shows. I think a

454
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 13: lot of times people can look just as stats and

455
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 13: just say hey if your if your stats aren't good,

456
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 13: then you're not playing well. But he works his ass

457
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 13: off and I'm glad.

458
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 2: To be his dad. How was he with the inspirational

459
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 2: stuff off him?

460
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's great.

461
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 13: I think he's played a lot of ball, you know,

462
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 13: year eleven, he's played a lot of and understands like, hey,

463
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 13: this is what it's gonna take to win, Like I'm

464
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 13: gonna push you guys as hard as I feel like

465
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 13: I put myself. And he does a great job at

466
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 13: pushing the guys because that's one of the best attricuatecy offense.

467
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 18: It feels like everybody has that desire to win when

468
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 18: it's you walking your department. Douglas's opening up plays like

469
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 18: those types of things seem to be.

470
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 6: Kind of the signature of this offense early on.

471
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think everybody just wants to win, Like everybody's

472
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 13: hungry to win. Whether or whether we're up by one

473
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 13: hundred or down by one hundred, everybody still fighting to

474
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 13: win it that nobody just shuts it down, and that's

475
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 13: great to see. You know, Year nine have been places

476
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 13: where sometimes it's stuff. Guys are like, oh, whatever, we

477
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 13: lost this one. Oh we won this one already. Like

478
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 13: even this game right here, we're up by a lot

479
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 13: and a lot of people would say the game's over.

480
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 13: Guys are still out there fighting for yards, trying to

481
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 13: make plays, trying to make more X plays and stuff.

482
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 13: So there's no quit in these guys, which is great.

483
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,360
Speaker 17: Are you seeing kind of the confidence grow each week?

484
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 14: For great?

485
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think that every week you're gonna grow, whether

486
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 13: whether it's a win or loss. I think his confidence

487
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 13: continue to grow just because reps help that. So seeing

488
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 13: him be able to grow and seed the field a

489
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 13: little bit easier is always always awesome.

490
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 17: How much of a sparked and Marcus Jones give you, guys,

491
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 17: it seems like that really set the tone for the.

492
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: Rest of the game.

493
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 13: Yeah, any special teams return is gonna turn us up

494
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 13: because it involves both sides of the ball, so offense

495
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 13: and defense are off the bench like turned up and

496
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 13: screaming and yelling, and that carries over a lot of times,

497
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 13: and you saw it today. It carries over and then

498
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 13: he almost got him another one, but didn't want to

499
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 13: be the greatest.

500
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 18: Does margins a victory when you're trying to establish a

501
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 18: winning culture and show that you can be in one

502
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 18: of their teams the league?

503
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 19: Does that matter?

504
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 18: Or you're just looking for wins butt put together a

505
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 18: dominant performance? Does that Is that helpful in terms of

506
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 18: establishing culture?

507
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 3: Uh?

508
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 13: I don't know. Maybe I think I've played long enough

509
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 13: where a win is a win.

510
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 2: You can take him.

511
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 13: But you know, when I was younger, I would have

512
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 13: probably said, yeah, that's great to win by a million points.

513
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 13: But as I've gotten older, I realized, thisten, you win,

514
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 13: every team is good out here. Obviously, winning by I

515
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 13: don't know how much we won by is great. But

516
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 13: I'll take a win in yeah, the week if it's

517
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 13: one point Hunter, I'm telling you, man, hey, we'll take

518
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 13: wins out here.

519
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 17: How crucial did this win?

520
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 16: Field is?

521
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 17: Before you get ready for prime time and Buffalo next week?

522
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 17: In three straight road games.

523
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 13: I ain't saying I think win's will win. I was

524
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 13: saying earlier I wish it was like T Mobile and

525
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 13: the points could roll over all right, But that's just

526
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 13: not how it works in this league. So I'll just

527
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 13: take the win.

528
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 2: And we go prepare for this coming up.

529
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 5: Lee Puncher, congrats with a big win in the touchdown today,

530
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 5: coming off last week's lost. How much did you guys

531
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 5: just need a win and a performance like this today?

532
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 6: Yeah?

533
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 20: I mean needed a win at home, needed to protect home,

534
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 20: you know, just obviously I dropped two at home and

535
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 20: a team that was coming off a big win last week,

536
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 20: so we knew we had to, you know, come out

537
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 20: ready to go.

538
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,360
Speaker 2: A hunter on the touchdown?

539
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 11: Were you thinking about going out of bounds or were

540
00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 11: you always a.

541
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 20: Number thinking trying to go out of bounds?

542
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 2: I'm trying to score.

543
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 20: I mean, I gotta give credit to Pop and Digs

544
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 20: and guys down the sideline making you know, big blocks.

545
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 20: You know, that's that's that's huge for everybody. I really

546
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 20: couldn't have done it without those guys and one.

547
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 11: Quick folloup could be way off on this. But after

548
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 11: Travion's touchdown, I thought, I saw maybe you went to

549
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 11: grab the ball, and if.

550
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 2: So, like, what was the thought process there?

551
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 20: Yeah? There's a lot going on in the game. Sometimes

552
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 20: you don't know exactly who the back was, and I

553
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 20: was like looking at who it was, and I was like, man,

554
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 20: I think that's Travion And I was like, man, I'm

555
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 20: almost positive that's his first touchdown. So I just honestly,

556
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 20: I was like trying to grab the ball just to

557
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 20: make sure, because I remember those moments. Your first touchdown

558
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 20: is huge in this league. It's so hard to score,

559
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 20: so a pretty special moment for him. Hunter stuff went

560
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 20: for six and one hundred one yards. Just how good

561
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 20: do you feel for him? And also what's he been

562
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 20: like as a teammate. We've heard some great things from

563
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 20: you guys about him. Yeah, I mean he's a guy

564
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 20: that you know, we rely on heavily, a guy that

565
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 20: has had a lot of success in this league, and

566
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 20: for him to show up like he did today is huge.

567
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 20: I think he's continuing to gain confidence just in his

568
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 20: knee and just in the whole process of coming back

569
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 20: from that, because I know how that process can be,

570
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 20: been through it myself. But just awesome to see him

571
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 20: out there flying around. He's been a tremendous teammate, a

572
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 20: guy that a lot of guys feed off of and

573
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 20: it brings a great energy to the room.

574
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 16: Hunter, there were three phases obviously, offense, defense, special teams.

575
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 16: They're all individual, but they're all together. How important is

576
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 16: it on a day like today for the synergy of

577
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 16: the team where it's special teams that launch the spark

578
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 16: that gets everything going.

579
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 20: Yeah, it's huge. Obviously didn't start like we wanted two

580
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 20: offensive and offensively and then defensively really didn't either. But

581
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 20: you know, we have a special guy and Marcus back there.

582
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 20: You know, every time he touches the ball we feel

583
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 20: pretty good about there. There's a chance for an explosive.

584
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 20: So I think the guys are pretty fired up to

585
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 20: block for him, try to you know, Uh, those guys

586
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 20: on Punk Returner are making big blocks for him, and

587
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 20: obviously he's pretty special once the ball gets in his hands.

588
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 7: Hunter, on your touchdown, was that the design of the

589
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 7: play where it sort of looks like you're coming for

590
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 7: a wham block and you keep going or did you

591
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 7: just kind of read Drake and find.

592
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 2: Some space that was designed.

593
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 11: Hunter, just more big picture, you know, some adversity last

594
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 11: week based on the ball security. Just what did you

595
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 11: observe as a team leader in terms of how you

596
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 11: guys handled that, and it was it.

597
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 20: Was back to work, man, and I feel like everybody

598
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 20: obviously it was that was tough, you know what we

599
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 20: did last Sunday, But I feel like everybody went back

600
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 20: to work and we were excited for the opportunity ahead.

601
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 20: You know, we had to learn a lot and really

602
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 20: kind of dig our feet in and learn from what

603
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 20: we did because that's what we put out there. But

604
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 20: I feel like everybody attacked a week with a with

605
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 20: a great mindset and was like fired up to get

606
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 20: back out there today because you know, it was kind

607
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 20: of a bad taste in our mouth, you know, with

608
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 20: any loss, but that one especially just just felt extra

609
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 20: bad just the way we played offensively, especially, so I

610
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 20: think everybody was ready to get to work and fired

611
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 20: up to get out there today.

612
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 2: All right, guys, it was great.

613
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 21: Trayman got his first touchdown, a g got nice on,

614
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 21: so it was a great day. We had one hundred

615
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 21: percent of security, so we've got.

616
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:30,479
Speaker 6: Enjoyed his night.

617
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,880
Speaker 22: How was that, guess the kind of your mentality.

618
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 21: Just how interest I mean, it's COMPLAXI but simple.

619
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 6: I mean it's just it's just hold the ball.

620
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 21: Yeah, you gotta you gotta hold the ball every time

621
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 21: you come up with it. Uh, Like I said, we

622
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 21: head on it to it today, had no turnover and

623
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:45,880
Speaker 21: got a big win.

624
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 20: Guys said some explosive runs would you see on tape

625
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 20: that give you the idea you might be able to

626
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 20: hit some today?

627
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 21: I mean we think we could hit hit some every week, honestly,

628
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 21: but uh, you know, just our our run plays we

629
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 21: had this week, just the game playing run plays, I'll

630
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 21: say we knew we had a chance to you know,

631
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 21: get get an open space and you know, hit some runs.

632
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 21: And I think we all, all three of us, really

633
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 21: got an open space tonight.

634
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 2: Obviously just steal in.

635
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 17: Uh.

636
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 21: I think that goes for everybody though, Taylor, like even me,

637
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 21: Like if I don't get the bar I supposed to,

638
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 21: you know, I finish longer than a guy with the bar.

639
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 2: But I feel like we did. We made a step today.

640
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 21: I feel like everybody was, you know, playing hard and

641
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 21: playing four.

642
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 18: Quarters, but this running reference so dynamic or seeing seemed

643
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 18: like y'all three you contribute to the game big ways

644
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 18: and differently.

645
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 22: Yeah, well just about that allows.

646
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 21: You all to contribute on different I think we all

647
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 21: feed off each other. I think we're all healthy competitors

648
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 21: in there. There's no egos in their room, So.

649
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 6: I think that's really what it is.

650
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 2: We're all happy for one another, and I hope to

651
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 2: keep it going.

652
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,679

653
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,560

Speaker 6: As we've progressed.

00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 23: Yeah, you know, the biggest thing that I pray on

695
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,040

709
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 23: the just the Punk Return team in general. The work

710
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 23: that those guys put in in practice and how they

711
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 23: handle business up front. They make his job easier and

712
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 23: he makes it look easy. Marcus makes it look easy

713
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 23: out there. But yeah, I'm proud of us guys.

714
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 22: As a guy like yourself who has been part of

715
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 22: the return game and will be for a while. What

716
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 22: have you learned from him in terms of you know,

717
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 22: kickoff return, punt returning, and what's what's the key in

718
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 22: order to make those plays happen?

719
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 23: Yeah, it's kind of like Punk return kick return. It's

720
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 23: kind of different in some sense. But he's a he's

721
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 23: such a great returner. You know, there's definitely things that

722
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 23: I can learn from him, you know, just the way

723
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 23: that he make guys miss in the open space and

724
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 23: things like that, and the way that he's decisive with

725
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 23: his decisions and so yeah, what kind.

726
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 17: Of win like this do for you guys moving forward,

727
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 17: especially considering you have three straight road games in prime

728
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 17: time in Buffalo next week.

729
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 23: Yeah, I think it creates momentum for us, but you know,

730
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 23: we can't get too big it and Coach rapes. He

731
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 23: does a good job of just keeping us focused, keeping

732
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 23: us humble, pushing us in practice each and every day,

733
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 23: and so we got to continue to have a great week,

734
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 23: great days of preparation and keep the sting on.

735
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 8: You talked about digs a little bit. Drake said that

736
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 8: he probably looked a little bit faster out there. Is

737
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 8: that the case or is that the digs you see

738
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 8: ey day in practice?

739
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 2: I'm always seeing Diggs fly around, man. He backs up

740
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 2: what he talks.

741
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 23: He comes to practice each and every day, and I

742
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 23: watch him work and he encourage everyone around him, you know,

743
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 23: to work hard as well, especially me. He pushes me

744
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 23: to work harder, and.

745
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 10: So I say it every week. It just be like

746
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 10: the first fIF team, unscattered looks that we don't let

747
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 10: they don't put on tape. Day after that, you know,

748
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 10: they go back to what they originally start running, and

749
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 10: then we can start keying in on it. But like

750
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 10: I said, you know, we try to start fast. They

751
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 10: just did a good job of trying to keep a

752
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 10: big line at the game. A lot of the runs

753
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 10: to the perimeter, play action boots, quick game screens, and

754
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 10: quarterback in the ball out. So I mean we did

755
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 10: we could try to fake the game, but I feel

756
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 10: that they did a good job trying to keep us

757
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 10: out of it.

758
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 6: What did the Marcus pump returned for the first one

759
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 6: is a group?

760
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 10: Oh No, that was big.

761
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 6: That was big.

762
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 10: I was just saying, I was trying to block the punter.

763
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 10: I think I hit one of my own guys. So

764
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 10: I gotta go back and look and see exactly who

765
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 10: it was.

766
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 6: I just asked him. He said it wasn't her.

767
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 14: He ran right into you.

768
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 10: Oh I was trying to get the punter. But I

769
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 10: was just hitting somebody. We scored, so that's all it mattered.

770
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 8: Did you take Binden that one? Seems like they're trying

771
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 8: to take the defensive line.

772
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 13: Now the game.

773

805
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 10: we like, talking about how the team is blocking us.

806
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 10: You know, what we're seeing out there and just being

807

810
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 19: out and play the way you did afterward.

811
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 2: Knowing you kind of sent him that message that is that?

812
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: Does that mean something special?

813
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:11,520

Speaker 10: the person he is, the coach he is. Now, we

818
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,680

Speaker 19: almost four years, Like does that matter or is it

824

825
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 19: more when you're trying to re establish this culture.

826
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 10: I feel like you get a win whenever you're trying

827
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 10: to get it, you get a big one.

830
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 10: capability to do that if we play clean football. I

831
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 10: know last week we didn't play clean and complimentary enough

832

Speaker 24: in practice every day and I see that they work ethics,

889
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,800
