1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: How important is it for you to have some stability

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: at that position with whoever's next.

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think continuity is important for officer line.

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 2: You know, I don't get paid to make those decisions,

5
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: so I trust you know whoever they decide to bring in.

6
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 2: Right now, just trying to get healthy, make sure everybody

7
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 2: get back for next year, and just try to have

8
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 2: a positive mindset going into next year.

9
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 3: Andrew, for you going into this off season, everything that

10
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 3: happened this season, you know, what's your mindset in terms

11
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 3: of what you want to accomplish going into next year.

12
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. The first thing just health. I'm just trying to

13
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 2: do all the rehab prehab I can do to be

14
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 2: ready for next year. Missed a lot of time this year,

15
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 2: which I think hurt the team. So just doing what

16
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 2: I can to be healthy. And then just trying to

17
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: become a better leader, find ways to be you know,

18
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: a better talker, a better leader vocally. I think that's

19
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: something that I can work on and be better, especially

20
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 2: for the room with the young guys. So that's the

21
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 2: two things I'm focused on.

22
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: There's so many young offensive lineman here. Do you express

23
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: a sense of urgency for them that you know, the

24
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: offensive line is going to go as good as you are,

25
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: you need help, Like the offensive line is going to

26
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: go as some of these young draft picks developed.

27
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 2: I don't look at look at it like that. I

28
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 2: look at it as a collective unit. You could say,

29
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 2: you know, I play well, but I don't think I

30
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: played to the level that I can this year. And

31
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: if we're all not playing well, it really doesn't matter

32
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: what I'm doing. So a lot of those guys are

33
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: dealing with injuries right now. So the biggest thing is

34
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 2: for them to be healthy, you know, attack the off season,

35
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 2: and you know, once we get back together, we'll try

36
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 2: to build something.

37
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: Whoever is back next year from this year, will you

38
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: guys wear as a chip on your shoulder? I don't

39
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: know what the final number is, but it's the second

40
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: most sacs ever allowed in NFL history. Will you guys

41
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: want to forget that or will you wear that in

42
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: the back of your minds? Is like something we need

43
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: to prove.

44
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 2: Or not that. I think one year to the next

45
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: doesn't really affect as much as you would think. But

46
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: obviously we don't want to be, you know, in that category.

47
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: We never want to you know, for the quarterback to

48
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: be hit that much, but there's more things that we

49
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 2: want to clean up when the clean up the run

50
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: game as well, continuity as an office a line together

51
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: as a whole, just being more dominant.

52
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: Andrew.

53
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 3: In this league, I mean, people have their theories as

54
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 3: to how an offensive line should be built, you know,

55
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 3: bringing assets, draft assets like yourself, but also then as well,

56
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: you know you need to bring in experienced guys. For you,

57
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 3: having been in this league and seeing success, what how

58
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: would you build an offensive line if someone asked you

59
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 3: and said, all right, Drew, what should we do to

60
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: get this thing on the right track.

61
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 2: I think there's multiple ways to skin a cat. If

62
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: you look across the weak there's some guys that you

63
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 2: know are drafted high that play well immediately and then

64
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: you know, from my experience, I did it, you know

65
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. So you never know when you're drafted

66
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 2: high and vice versa. There'll be, you know, guys that

67
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 2: are veterans that get signed for really nice deals, but

68
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: they might not jail as well with that group. So

69
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: I think it's it's more about the continuity as an

70
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,679
Speaker 2: office line to get the mentality the technique that we're

71
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 2: all using and playing together as one.

72
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: What along those sames lines? What makes for you? What

73
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: would be the ideal offensive line coach? I'm not saying

74
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: who I'm saying. Is it a motivator? Is it a

75
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: technique master?

76
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 2: Like?

77
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: What makes a good offensive line coach?

78
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: I think it's all of those things that you just said.

79
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 2: But I think a lot of times we get caught

80
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 2: up in who's the coach. I think some of the

81
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 2: blame has to be on the players, like and that's

82
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: why I said I want to be a better leader.

83
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: Sometimes I get focused on myself just learning about, you know,

84
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: my issues, my injuries or whatever it's going on. But

85
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, it's a players game,

86
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: so we have to play. All they can do is

87
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 2: tell us, you know what the players are, what the

88
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: technique is. But at the end of the day, we

89
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: got a block. So that's the mindset we got to have.

90
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: What will your offseason message be as you're head out

91
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: with to Evan Neil obviously his second season was kind

92
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: of lost due to injury yeap.

93
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 2: Just to try to keep a positive mindset, been there

94
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: before and I know it's not easy. He has high

95
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: expectations for us, for himself, and we do too. Like

96
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: I said, the big the same form is to get

97
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: healthy because it's it's hard to play in this league

98
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 2: when you're not. And then once we get back together,

99
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: just continue to buld You.

100
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 3: Take anything from being a team out of Justin Pugh,

101
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: a guy who's been here previously and now obviously was back.

102
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, Justin was great for us, A great veteran. He

103
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 2: brought energy to the room that I think we needed.

104
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 2: And then obviously playing some positions for us that I

105
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 2: don't think he knew he could play, you know, playing

106
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 2: tackle for us was it was great. We needed it,

107
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: a great refresher in the room. I appreciate him.

108
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 3: Sure, you talked about your injuries, and I know how

109
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 3: how serious you'll take going into the year. But is

110
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: there any part of you that that first night and

111
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 3: that first injury that just looks at it as bad

112
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 3: luck or could you have prevented that? You know what,

113
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 3: did you feel like you need more pre ab and

114
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 3: how do you kind of come to grips with the

115
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 3: way the hamstring happened?

116
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you try to convince yourself that it's

117
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 2: something that you can do to prevent certain injuries, but

118
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 2: it's football. Things are going to happen. Just try to

119
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: be more aggressive this year and just making sure everything

120
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: it's fine. Tune when he the first napata since
