1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Obviously, it's tough to win, um games in general when 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 1: you don't take advantage of those opportunities, and especially against 3 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: a really good team, really good offense, uh, really good 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: defense too over there. So you know, they did some 5 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: stuff in the first half offensively where we didn't really 6 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 1: play our best ball. They did some stuff defensively where 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: offensively we didn't play our best ball, didn't execute well. Um, 8 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 1: you know, we kind of started getting a little bit 9 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: of a rhythm at the end of that first half 10 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: going into the second half, but you know, too many 11 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: missed opportunities too early, and we still had our chance 12 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 1: at the end of the game, and and and didn't 13 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: make the place to to get back in it there. 14 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: But you know, it's hard to overcome when you when 15 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,160 Speaker 1: you missed that many opportunities early in the game, and um, 16 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: you know, against against a good team. So just a 17 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: little bit a little bit too many of those. Yeah. Sure, 18 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 1: that half to one pass to run ratio was that 19 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: by design or game situation where they're taking a run? Yeah, 20 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously the run game is something that we've 21 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,040 Speaker 1: we've been really good at, you know, this season, and 22 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: that's that's always an emphasis for us and we got 23 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: great backs and great guys up front and tight ends 24 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: to to execute it. And you know, today I feel 25 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: like they had they had a really good plan for 26 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: for stopping the run. It's obviously something that we do well. 27 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: And um, you know we still we still hit a few, 28 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: but there was would be a lot of stuff to 29 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: learn from on tape. You know, I thought there was 30 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: times where they kind of beat us to the spot 31 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: just because it felt like they had a good, good 32 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: idea of where we were heading. So that's all stuff. 33 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: You know, you're playing on the road, they time up 34 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: your cadence, all that they brought, some pressures that they 35 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: did a good job. So those are all things we'll 36 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: learn from. And you know, we'll watch the tape and 37 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: we gotta we got an extra week now so we 38 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: can really dive into that even more so there'll be 39 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: some a lot of stuff to learn from close to 40 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:44,559 Speaker 1: this this team, to having to being able to overcome 41 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: those mistakes with the margin prayers, the first slim right 42 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: now close. It's just great to maybe being able to 43 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: expand that a little. Um, I mean we're right there 44 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: of winning these games, and um, you know we've said 45 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: that the whole season, and um, it's just a week 46 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: no matter who you're playing, Like I said, especially when 47 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: you're playing a great team like like Kansas City, it's 48 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,839 Speaker 1: hard to overcome those And and right now with where 49 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: we're at, we need to make those plays and keep 50 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: that momentum. And and that's that's where we're at right now. 51 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: And um, you know that's you look at the locker 52 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: room after the game, and everybody believes in what we're doing. 53 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 1: Everybody believes where we're heading. We know that, but it's 54 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: just still frustrating when you when you feel like you're 55 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: in these games and you don't make all the plays 56 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: that you have to make to win them. And that's 57 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: the same story that we've talked about, and that's gonna 58 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: always be. It's always our messages. It's about us. There's 59 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: the things that we can control. We have to execute, 60 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: you know, the defense, for just speaking offensive, the defense 61 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: is gonna make some plays, but you know, as far 62 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: as alignment, execution, hitting the easy throws, whatever it is, 63 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta hit those, you know, And that's 64 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: the and that's always gonna be the messages. Control what 65 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: you can control. They're always gonna make some plays, but 66 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: we gotta be better executing just you know, from our 67 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: standpoint phecifically, how hard much moment that you feel like 68 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: you had end that last four minutes the third quarter 69 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: but you get the missfield goal and then a touchdown 70 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: taken away? I mean, you're talking about the momentum we 71 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: had at the end, or just go down to get 72 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: the turnover. You gus the gig come up with a 73 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: nine minute drive, you only get three out of it? 74 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: I mean specifically, how mean is that summing up? Really mean? 75 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: Where you guys were really grubing, but I couldn't get 76 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: as much out of it maybe as you could. Yeah, 77 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: And that's that just goes back into the missed opportunities. 78 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: You know that obviously obviously, um that was one of them. 79 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: And then you look at we talked about to field position. 80 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: You know, we had some some great opportunities to maximize 81 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: that field position early on. I mean essentially stole a 82 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: possession from them and had an opportunity to get you know, 83 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: down to at least get some points, but score you know, 84 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Obviously that's the ideal, but you know we 85 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: come away, we have to pun it, don't get any points. There, um, 86 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: and then you know later on, you know, we had 87 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: we I think we had what two or three turnovers 88 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: a day. It was huge, huge for us to be 89 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: able to get those possessions and just didn't capitalize on them. 90 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest thing is you gotta play 91 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: complimentary football. And I thought at times, Um, there was 92 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: moments where we all played played great in certain moments, 93 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: But we have to do that more and we have 94 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: to be on the same page and we got to 95 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: complement each other. Defense gets a big stop, we gotta 96 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: go score. You know, we have to punt, we gotta 97 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: get a stop. Just back and forth, and that's that's 98 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: what great teams do. And we're close, and but we 99 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: just gotta start doing more of that. I'm assuming you're 100 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: probably not the special teams meetings, but were you aware 101 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: of the on side kickers coming in the beginning of 102 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: the games? That's something you guys are all kind of 103 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: watching one's gonna happen. Yeah, I mean we we we 104 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: kind of we knew there was a chance that was 105 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: gonna happen. You never know, you know, coach or whoever 106 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: can change your mind right before. But I kind of 107 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: had an idea of what was happening. But I'm sitting 108 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: over there and just not want to You don't want 109 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: to be over there with your helmet on, make it obvious, 110 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: ready to go out there. So now we executed it great, 111 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: and that's you know, that's where you're kicking yourself. You 112 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: get the ball on the where we're on the forty 113 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: forty five or so and just you know, didn't get 114 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: any points out of it. So that's frustrating. We've got 115 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: to talk about Patrick mahomes ability to just see me 116 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: when you pull things out than air. It's tough. You know, 117 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 1: you're sitting over there and like you're you're looking at 118 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: the play, got everybody covered up down field, the pockets 119 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: closing in, and then he whirls out of there and 120 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: makes a play. You know, it's it's part of what 121 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: makes him great. He's a great player. And um, it's 122 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: it's just gonna make our team better because obviously playing 123 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: against guys like that is tough. And you know, I 124 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: thought we did some really good things on defense. They 125 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: just watching, created some turnovers, got the ball back for us. Um, 126 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: but yeah, he's a he's a great player, and you 127 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: can't you're never gonna completely stop those guys. But I 128 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: thought our guys did a good job of taking advantage 129 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: some opportunities and making a harder on him, and um, yeah, 130 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: he's he's a great player, and they did some some 131 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: good things in offense, for sure. If you head into 132 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: the bye week, are you as much control of your game, 133 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: the offense, everything else as you felt as you came 134 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: to the NFL, I mean these last two weeks specifically, 135 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, I feel I feel really good with 136 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: where we're at as far as just being on the 137 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: same page, you know, especially myself and the receivers. I 138 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: feel like we've taken some big steps the last couple 139 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: of weeks. And um, obviously, you know, our group up 140 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: front has done a great job all year, so there's 141 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: there's a lot of stuff to learn from those. Still, 142 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: too many missed opportunities passing game run games just all 143 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: all over the place, you know, that plays that we 144 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: can make. Um, so we're gonna look at those. But 145 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: I really, I really, I know we're heading in the 146 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: right direction and I'm confident in that. And um, but 147 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: to win these games, you you can't miss too many opportunities. 148 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: And when we did that, today so valuable as Christian guys, 149 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: and obviously today shows he's been he's been awesome. I 150 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: think just the way we communicate, the way he communicates 151 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: with me when he sees things, whether that's in practice 152 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: during the week, prepping for the prepping for whoever we're playing, 153 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: or that's during the game. You know, there's a lot 154 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: of times, you know, some pressure stuff today where it's 155 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: all about me and him be on the same page 156 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: and you see a lot of those big conversions and 157 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: those you know, whatever, those quick throws that we have. 158 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: It's because I know where he's gonna be, I know 159 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: how he's gonna react based on the look before it happens, 160 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: and um, we're building that and it's I think it's 161 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: really clicking right now. So that's something we gotta build on. 162 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: And I feel like I'm getting there with with all 163 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: of our guys too. So, um, I feel like in 164 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: in that in that aspect, we're we're in a really 165 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: good place. And we just gotta keep building on that 166 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: and keep doing that because that's that's really important. Obviously. Yeah, 167 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: thank you all you guys can say
