1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: I was just curious when you when you look back

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: at how well you guys ran the ball on Sunday,

3
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 1: just what stood out is how this group, this on

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,960
Speaker 1: line group is is playing at this point.

5
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say it started with communication. Green Bay

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 2: presented a multitude of fronts, so just communicating a mic

7
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: point technique and then finish was a big part of it.

8
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 2: And then credit to the tight ends the Bax receivers.

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 2: There was a few plays Jamis was in, you know,

10
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 2: the power pushing after the play. So I think it's

11
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: a testament to everybody and the will to be physcal

12
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 2: upfront and run the ball well.

13
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 3: And obviously too with with seeing CAFA this week just

14
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 3: kind of what what made stood out to you just

15
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 3: kind of you know, how he you know, was there

16
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 3: anything different in terms of, you know, interacting with him,

17
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 3: how he coached this weekend.

18
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 4: I mean, just was there.

19
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 3: Any what was the biggest noticeable difference for you with

20
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 3: with CAF in charge.

21
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly didn't notice too much. During the game office

22
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: and line usually stays in our corner. I felt like

23
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 2: we had some you know, aggressive calls going forward on

24
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: fourth down, but other other than that, I thought they

25
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: could have did a good job of handling handling the game,

26
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: and like I said, we just we execute with whatever

27
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: it's called.

28
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 4: Rock he drew.

29
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 5: One of the things that Mike said he was changing

30
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 5: or are adding, I guess, was having the practice squad

31
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,839
Speaker 5: guys and the injury guys on the sideline.

32
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 4: Just to kind of create a little bit of a buzz.

33
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 5: What was What was that like for you guys, especially

34
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 5: when it came to seeing Jackson and Cam out there

35
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,839
Speaker 5: pregame and kind wherever they were limited to doing.

36
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's infectious having you know, positive energy

37
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 2: on the team. And then credit to those guys because

38
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 2: I know they're in a practice squad, but they're part

39
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: of our team. You know, they work every day, so

40
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 2: it was pretty cool to see them out there to

41
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 2: be able to celebrate with us on his O learn.

42
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 4: What did you think of Cam's wrestling debut?

43
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: Cam's crazy, It's just another another quick question.

44
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 5: This was the second home game in a row where

45
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 5: you guys had to go to asylum count How hard

46
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 5: is that to adjust to when you're probably not practicing

47
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 5: it during the week, And then you know, I guess

48
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 5: how disappointing is it to have to do that at

49
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 5: your home stadium.

50
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't anticipate having to do that at home,

51
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: but that's reality, and that's, you know, partly because of

52
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 2: how we played. So we just embraced it. We made

53
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 2: the silent count the strength of ours getting time in

54
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 2: on the rushers and it helps us out.

55
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 4: So we just embrace it, appreciate it. Thank you all. Schwartz. Hey, Andrew,

56
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 4: how are you? I'm glare?

57
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: Are you good?

58
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 5: Now?

59
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 6: You mentioned that, you know, things really weren't that different,

60
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 6: you know during the game with the with the kaf Cup,

61
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 6: you know, I mean you guys kind of stay in

62
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 6: your own offensive line corner. Have any of your teammates

63
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 6: on defense asked you casually this past week?

64
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 4: You know what? Can I expect? What's he like?

65
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 6: I mean, you know what, Excel Lawrence, I didn't even

66
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 6: know if he had a personality. He's an offensive coordinator.

67
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 6: He doesn't really mingle with the other side. Are any

68
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 6: guys curious and asking you about what he's all about?

69
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: Really not asking me much. But we have leadership meetings

70
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: and you know a lot of the differensive guys, they

71
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: talk and Cava asked questions just trying to get to

72
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 2: know everybody. Obviously it's tough during the season, but I

73
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: think he's doing a good job of just you know,

74
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 2: trying to reach out, you know, understand those guys a

75
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: little bit more, which will help them make decisions.

76
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 6: We're talking earlier in the year about vibes, and the

77
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 6: vibes were good. Vibes probably aren't as good now. You know,

78
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 6: you don't strike me as a real big vibe guy.

79
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 6: You know, you strike me as a guy who comes

80
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 6: to work. Is there any feeling or any difference since

81
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 6: this change were made. You know, there's a few procedural

82
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 6: and scheduled differences, but is there anything you feel at

83
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 6: all that is different?

84
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: Honestly, no, Like I feel like this team we're so close.

85
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: I know we keep saying that, but I think we're

86
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 2: very close. And Kafka believes in this team, and you know,

87
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 2: we're gonna keep trying to figure out how to how

88
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 2: to win because at the end of the day, that's

89
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: what solves all the problems as winning. So we got

90
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: to figure that out.

91
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 4: Thank you are.

92
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 7: Aren't Stapleton?

93
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 6: Hey Drew? How you doing?

94
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 2: I'm are you?

95
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 8: You mentioned the leadership meetings and you guys getting together.

96
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 2: Is there.

97
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 8: I know you've done it all year, but is there

98
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 8: more of an onus on you guys? Do you take

99
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 8: more ownership because of all the changes that have happened

100
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 8: the last week or so and the way things are.

101
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 8: I mean, I know you're used to the leaders of

102
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 8: this team are used to dealing with adversity, but this

103
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 8: is something different. I mean, it doesn't happen all the

104
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 8: time when a head coach and you have an interim coach.

105
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 8: So I'm just curious the connections you guys have made.

106
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 8: Has it made you stronger, does it make you lean

107
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 8: into it more? How does that manifest itself?

108
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, we definitely embrace it. It's not easy to deal

109
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 2: with something like that during the season, But like I said,

110
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 2: we've had those is with Calf and he's relying on

111
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 2: us and we're relying on him. You know, all of

112
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: us in it together trying to get this thing going

113
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 2: in the right direction.

114
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,679
Speaker 8: Just one other thing would be, you know, we talked

115
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 8: after the game, just the offensive line and how you

116
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 8: guys have played and the continuity and do you guys

117
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 8: sense during the week as you're putting together the game

118
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 8: plan for the next game that the trust continues to

119
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 8: grow from the coaches and from everyone as part of

120
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 8: the offense of what you guys can do as an

121
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 8: offensive line as to maybe opposed of I don't want

122
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 8: to say lack of trust, but uncertainty as to how

123
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 8: you guys would perform in past years.

124
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, when the offensive line is playing well, it makes

125
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 2: offense really easy, especially for the skill guys. So we

126
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 2: you know, try to do our best to make sure

127
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: that we win early downs, we make third downs a

128
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: lot easier, and then when it's time to throw the ball,

129
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: you know, our sorts passing off games and just you know,

130
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 2: winning your one on one matchup said, it really helps

131
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 2: the team. So we just try to look for ways

132
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 2: to improve each and every week.

133
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 7: Thank you, we'll take two more. Ryan Dunleavy, Hey check.

134
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 4: Hey Andrew, thanks for doing this.

135
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 5: Uh when you look at the Lions, they've been kind

136
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 5: of like the gold standard offensive line for a while.

137
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 4: Is that, uh something that crosses your mind? Like, is

138
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 4: that something that off Are they a team offensive lines

139
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 4: measure up to? And do you feel like you guys

140
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 4: have reached a point where maybe you guys are the

141
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 4: best that you guys have been since you've been here.

142
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously credit to those guys. They've been good up

143
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: front for a while. And part part part of that

144
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 2: goes to what I was talking about earlier, just winning

145
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 2: early downs, running the bar really well. It makes play

146
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 2: action go and makes pass protection. I'm a little you know,

147
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: third and third and manageable. You get different looks. But no,

148
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 2: I I think we're playing well, but you can never

149
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 2: be complacent. We want to continue to improve to be

150
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 2: the best unit in the league. So we're, you know,

151
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 2: trying to clean up everything we can to do that.

152
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 4: And then I have two questions on the stories of

153
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 4: the day. Number one, way back in your rookie year,

154
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 4: you were late for something and Joe Judge benched you

155
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 4: for a quarter. What'd you learn from that?

156
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 2: It's just, you know, a rookie mistake. Obviously accountability and

157
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 2: then you just making sure that that never happens again.

158
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 4: And then the video of w w E last night.

159
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 4: As a guy who's had some foot injuries, what did

160
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 4: you think when you saw that? We were like, oh

161
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 4: that scripted? Or were you like, Cam, what do you

162
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 4: do and you have a dislocated ankle you got pushed?

163
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, scat is crazy. So I'm sure, he probably has

164
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 2: some extra in there, but I'm not worried about him.

165
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna trust and do everything that it

166
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: takes to be back when he's ready.

167
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 7: Thanks Andrew, last one or Splendorium.

168
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 6: Andrew just wanted to ask on the other side of

169
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 6: the ball for the Lions, just what makes their defensive

170
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 6: line tough?

171
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 4: With Adan Hutchinson and those guys. Just what are the

172
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 4: challenges they present.

173
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll say first their play style, Like obviously they

174
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 2: have talented players, but I think it's the play style

175
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: that makes it tough. Very physical upfront, They interior guys,

176
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 2: they pushed the pocket really well. Obviously they have talented

177
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 2: edge So for us, it's just about identifying the front technique,

178
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 2: being physical, matching that physicality as much as possible, and

179
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: then obviously on the money down there down protecting
