1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 1: Good evening or whatever time it is. Look a disappointing game. 2 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: Disappointing game. We came out, we started fast. What I 3 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: would say is, look, we're a soft football team across 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,039 Speaker 1: the board. We talk about what makes a tough football team. 5 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: That's being able to run the ball, that's being able 6 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 1: to stop the run, and that's being able to cover kicks. 7 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: And we did none of those today. Uh, they controlled 8 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 1: the ball for most of the day. You know, their 9 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: run game average over four and a half yards to carry. 10 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 1: Our run game. Not sure what the average was, but 11 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: it wasn't good. Look back to the drawing board. I mean, 12 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: we can't sit here and pout. We just we just 13 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 1: gotta put a game together to name. I'm not sure. 14 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's something that you have to watch 15 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:41,639 Speaker 1: on you know, watch on film. But I will say 16 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: is it's a mentality, it's an attitude. And here, as 17 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: of late, our run game just hasn't been able to 18 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: do anything offensively and then defensively, I mean, the players like, 19 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: we just got to play better, We got to play 20 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: better technique, got to lock our guy out in front 21 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: of us, and really just I mean, that's what it 22 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: comes down to. Locking the guy out in front of you, dominating, 23 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: dominating him and making a tackle where you for this 24 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,559 Speaker 1: cause this to be if you entered out a soft 25 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: football team across the word. I'm not sure. I mean 26 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: that's something that you know, I have to I have 27 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: to think about. You know, we have a long flight back, 28 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure. It's not like all of a sudden, 29 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: you know, we did something different and now we're a 30 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: soft football team. It's just the mentality that we got 31 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: to get back in the guys once again. Well, I'll 32 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: go back over I'll go back over the film and yeah, 33 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: from where I was standing, like, even when you're in 34 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: the right call, in the right call, they're still not 35 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: doing their job. So that's on me. The decision to 36 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: go for the two point conversion after the touchdown, yep, 37 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: so that that decision. At some point in time, you 38 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: have to go for two, and I just wanted to 39 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: at least know what situation we were gonna be and 40 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: with more time on the clock, so we went for 41 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: two on the first one. I'm sure other people see 42 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: the different ways. Just the philosophical thing. What uh, what'd 43 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: you see on the pun return? I saw guys getting 44 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 1: out of leveraged. I saw a punt down the middle 45 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: of the field, which is always difficult to cover. And look, 46 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: he has a strong leg and he outkicked his coverage 47 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: and we weren't disciplined in our lanes. I thought, you know, 48 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: did a good job, especially starting the game off fast. 49 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: He made some good throws, he made some plays with 50 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: his legs. Uh. But again I have to go back 51 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: to the film and really just study that draw. With 52 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: the straight losses, are you worried that we're losing the 53 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: players at all? That guys get Really no, I'm not 54 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: worried about that. Look, the guys, they understand every week 55 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: is its own weekend. You know, it's my job, you 56 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: know we'll get there on Wednesdays, is to change the page. 57 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: So why to use that work the other day you build, 58 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: which was rated to you know, he started build the 59 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: field farther away than maybe even you go out joy 60 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: not at all, you know, I don't want to go 61 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: back and say we should have won this or should 62 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: be could we should have? I mean, we could have 63 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: lost all of the games. And saying that we just 64 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: gotta keep working, going out there with the players that 65 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: we have and and get better, so the run game 66 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: offensively way, I think that face is not having a 67 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: success for you can do that. I mean that kind 68 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: of goes back to what I said earlier. It's a mentality. 69 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: It's a mentality and it's about re establishing the line 70 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, level of concern. I mean, just hands on 71 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: the ball, and yeah, we need more from Polk, We 72 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: need more concentration. He'll be a good player in this league. 73 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: Just got to continue to work at it. Offensively. You 74 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: had ten points on the first two drives. What did 75 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: you see change after that? Again, I'll go back and 76 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: look at the film. It would be easy to say, 77 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: you know, the you know, the vibe on the sideline 78 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: was down. It wasn't down. It was still rough. It 79 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: was it always comes back to execution in my eyes, 80 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: and just didn't do it. It wasn't like a big 81 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: adjustment that was made or anything like that. We just 82 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: want to make it the place. Do you wish you 83 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: had brought the team on here earlier? Again? No, Look, 84 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: once again, we started the game off fast and they 85 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: felt you know, they felt good. I asked multiple players, 86 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: and we just didn't finish. But if you use your 87 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: word concentration when you're topless and the tallest on the field. 88 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: You thing concentration is a comin growing for a season. Oh, 89 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think every single week it's 90 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: its own weekend. Uh, you gotta hit the reset button, 91 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: and that includes concentration, attention to the details, all of 92 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: those things. How do you use stuff? How do you struggling? Well, first, 93 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: I have to remind him he's a young football player, 94 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: and I'm not using that as an excuse, but I mean, 95 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: this isn't the last iteration or evolution of Jalen Polpe. 96 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: He just says to get back in the in the 97 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: in the the meeting rooms, and they'll go back out 98 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: there on the field and get better and tough to 99 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: work for players, You're are you trying to send a 100 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: message to them? Every time I talk to you guys, 101 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: I I understand that the players read all of that stuff. 102 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: So I always use this vehicle as a way to 103 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: reinforce a message or get a message out to those guys. 104 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: Do you think there's a way for any part the buds? 105 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: There's always a way to be harder. I think there's 106 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: there's always a balance in doing that. Again, like we 107 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: you know, six straight losses. I mean they feel bad 108 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: about it as well as a professional player, like you 109 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: feel bad about losses just like everyone else. And it's 110 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: about just going back to the drawing board and trying 111 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: to put some stuff together. Describing a team as a 112 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: soft and how you describe the coaching staff. Look the coaches, Well, 113 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: first it starts with me, and you know, it's about 114 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: just the mentality of going back to having a tough 115 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: football team. And I just had to do a better job. 116 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: And like I said, i'll you know, I'll think it 117 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: through on the playing right home. If you watching the 118 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: huge game, it's challenging. Look, it's hard to win football 119 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: games in the NFL, and I totally understand that. I've 120 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: talked to season coaches, head coaches around the league and 121 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: they say the same thing. It's tough. It's tough. And 122 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 1: then once again, every week is its own week. Coach 123 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: lost successful as the most successful to be one and 124 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: six saton off the season. Also, those people in place 125 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: the least ensure there's gonna be something develops on the scene. 126 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: I think the Mangal is the win next week. Thank 127 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: you mm hm.
