1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Josh. I wanted to ask you about the 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,960 Speaker 1: job that the offense did, especially in the first two 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: drives of the game, and how important it was yesterday 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 1: to try and establish tempo from the start, especially in 5 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: the running game, when early in that first drive it 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,959 Speaker 1: looked like they were stopping you and you eventually got 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: the running game going. How important was that? Well, I 8 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: think it's, um, you know, in any of these games, 9 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,639 Speaker 1: you know where you're you're playing, you know, a one 10 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: game season, it's always best to try to to start fast. 11 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: However you choose to do that run pass or some 12 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: other way of doing it. Um, you know, it just 13 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: so happened that yesterday. You know, certainly we wanted to 14 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: try to maintain our balance and we felt like we 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: had a chance to do that effectively, and thought the 16 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: guys were ready to go and knew the defense we 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: were playing, and you know, understood how they played, and 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: you know the players they were going to be matched 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: up against, and went out and executed well. I mean 20 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: there's um, you know, there's no there's no magic plays, 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: and the guys know that, and you know, in order 22 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 1: to start well, um, we have to play well. And 23 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: so we try to, you know, give them a plan 24 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: that they understand and can digest and I really know, 25 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: well and go out there and play fast and be aggressive. 26 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: And they executed, you know, well enough certainly for us 27 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: to go out there and get off to a decent 28 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: start um, which I then think lends itself to having 29 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: the ability to stay with things and and you know, 30 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: balance out everything as you go. You know, if you 31 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: fall behind, you know, certainly it's tougher, um. But you know, 32 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: the better you start, the more chance you have to 33 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: be patient and allow you know, allow things to kind 34 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: of develop as the game goes on. So I kind 35 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: of think they go hand in hand. And again our 36 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: players deserve the credit for that. And is that um 37 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: even more important when you go on the road in 38 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: a place like Arrowhead, Josh, to make sure that you 39 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: even if you don't score, you kind of have a 40 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: tempo or a rhythm of the game so that you're 41 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: kind of dictating the pace and the and the crowd 42 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: doesn't get too involved with affecting calls at the line 43 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. I really don't think it. I mean, it 44 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter where we play, whether we play here or 45 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: somewhere else in that regard. Um. You know, playing well 46 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: is more important than than than the venue. Um. So 47 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: if we if we can go out there and execue 48 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: what we're doing, um, you know, and and get out 49 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: in front, then that's always a positive regardless of the 50 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 1: sight of the game. And so you know, look, we've 51 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: played on the road, you know, half our games and 52 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: there's noise and all the other stadiums, there's not gonna 53 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: be noise in this one. We know that we've experienced 54 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: it before, but we know how to you know, we 55 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: know how to handle that. And you know, again it 56 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: comes down to how well we played this week. It 57 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter any other week that we've played, you know, 58 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: the last game we played them, you know, or there 59 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: or some other place on the road. What matters is 60 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: how our team this week can prepare and then go 61 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: out and perform it execute on Sunday night and again 62 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: hopefully we can go out there and play our best 63 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: game of the year. Thanks Josh, M. Thank you. Next 64 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: up will be Rich Garden, followed by Rich Thompson, go 65 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: Edwards Garbon. Well, Josh, you had a it's curious. I know, 66 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: obviously the quarterbacks work on mechanics all the time. The 67 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: point of emphasis. It's curious if maybe somebody's keen eye 68 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: discovered something with Tom late in the year that was 69 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: that was flawed mechanically with him with his throw, you know, 70 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: throwing motion, et cetera. No, I don't you know, I 71 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: don't know if you're I don't know what you're referring to. Um, 72 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, we we we talk about a lot of 73 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: things each week, but you know, there's nothing. He's one 74 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: of the he's one of us, not the most fundamentally 75 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: sound pastors of the football that that I think has 76 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: ever been. So. Um. He works on his fundamentals in 77 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: his craft every week, every day. And uh, you know, 78 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: we have a lot of confidence in that. I know 79 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: he has a lot of confidence in that. And his 80 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: confidence comes from the work that he puts in. So no, nothing, 81 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: no big changes. Ye yeah, it's not as much of changes. 82 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: I mean Tiger Woods is that, you know, talking and 83 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: referred to those guys off referred to like it's even 84 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: COSCOSI refers to the kicking the golfing calms the same thing. 85 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: Even Tiger Woods loses his driver or his putting range, 86 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: putting stroke points in a while, It's curious whether maybe 87 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: Tom got off his game a little bit, discovered something 88 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: that was all the sync and fixed it because he's 89 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: from the watch sharper the last three weeks. Yeah, I mean, 90 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know. You know, you'd have to 91 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: ask him in terms of something specific to that. Um. 92 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: You know, we work on a lot of things every week. Uh. 93 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: You know, part of that's fundamentals. Part of that's you know, 94 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: understanding the defense. Part of that's you know, footwork. Part 95 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: of that's you know, our game playing and the design 96 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: that we have in place that week. So um, there's 97 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: a lot of things that go into uh, you know, 98 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: having success on an individual play or you know in 99 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: an individual game. UM, many of which um, you know 100 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: can be attributed to a lot of factors. So um, again, 101 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: what matters is how we continue to try to work 102 00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: and performance. We go forward and we're going to do 103 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: everything we can to have our best game this week, 104 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: and I know Tom will too. Great. Thank you, Josh, 105 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: m hmm, thank you. All right, let's go to Phil Perry. 106 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: We'll come back. So can you hear us? Yeah? I 107 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: got Mark, Thank Josh. I'm just serious that um. When 108 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: you are you know, in the middle of a drive 109 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: and you see that there are six or seven defensive 110 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: back on the field, do you feel like you know, 111 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: obviously you can, you can choose whatever play call you want, 112 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: but is that sort of a challenge In some ways 113 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: you have to feel like you make the defense pay 114 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: for putting that person all on the field by running 115 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: the football something. Um, well, I think there's a lot 116 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: of things that go into those decisions. Um you know. Um, look, 117 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot of teams that play really well with 118 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: nicol and dyme defense on the field. The chart orders 119 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: do too, you know, and they have had a lot 120 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: of success this year doing that. Um. You know, it's 121 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: not you don't ever want the other other team to 122 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: dictate what you do, because then you become predictable. But 123 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: when you put certain groupings out there, if you feel 124 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: like you have an advantage one way or the other, 125 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: then you start to want to try to play to it. Um. 126 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: I don't think that really happened yesterday necessarily. I thought 127 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: we were just trying to execute our game plan. I 128 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: thought our guys did a decent job of doing that, 129 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: especially in the first half, you know, just whether it 130 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: was a run or a pass. I mean, we actually 131 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: passed the ball more than we ran it, you know, 132 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: in the first half and in the game in general. 133 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: But you know, all in all, I think what matters 134 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: is our execution and you know, our I thought our 135 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: guys did a good job of communicating. We got a 136 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: lot of different looks with different groupings on, you know, 137 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: on the field from from them as the game war on, 138 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: and you know, that's a lot to sort out sometimes. 139 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: UM give Tom and David Andrews a lot of credit 140 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: for you know, really you know, setting the table and 141 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: distributing our blockers properly, not only in the running game 142 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: but in protection. And then you know, trying to you know, 143 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: just be sound and run good football plays and stay 144 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: ahead on the down a distance. And I thought that 145 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: we tried to do that for the most part in 146 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: both the run gaming in the past few Thanks John, Yeah, 147 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: thanks so Rich Thompson. Will try you one more time? 148 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 1: Can you hear us now? Yes? If not, we will 149 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: go to Nora. Do you have us? Yeah? Can you 150 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: hear me? Yep? Okay? Great? Hey, Josh, you know so, 151 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: I think we see from from Tom a really good 152 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: ability to use his eyes and look off defenders and 153 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 1: not give up where he's going. So I'm wondering, I mean, one, 154 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: just do you agree that that's something that he's particularly 155 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: good at? And then too, you know, where does that 156 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 1: come from? Is that a product of his experience? Is 157 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: that natural challenge? How have you seen him progress in 158 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: that area? Well, it's probably one of a million things 159 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: that he does well, and that's what's made him such 160 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: a good player for such a long time. You know, 161 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: if there's a lot that goes into that. His own 162 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: preparation is important, obviously, and he works extremely hard at 163 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: that to be ready to go and know the other 164 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: team and you know our you know, our meetings throughout 165 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: the week, trying to get to know the defense, the players, 166 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: our game plan, what's going to make each play work. 167 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: It's best, um. I know, he really does a good 168 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: job of studying that and listening during the week and 169 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: digesting all of that information, and then he had the 170 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: ability to go out there and execute it under pressure, 171 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: which is you know the toughest part about all that. 172 00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: You know, it's easy to sit and listen in the 173 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: eatings and you know, see things or hear things. It's 174 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: completely different to be able to see them hear them 175 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: during the week. And then go out there and apply 176 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: them under pressure, you know, with pass rush and disguise 177 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: and all the different fact weather and all the different 178 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: factors that could come in you know, on a given 179 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: play or a given day. So you know, it's there there. 180 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: It takes a lot of you know, of hard work, um, 181 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: you know, in preparation and practice, and there's nothing more 182 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: important that we do every week then go out there 183 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: on the practice field and work at you know, at 184 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: whatever it is we're going to try to do on Sunday. 185 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: So he's been a great practice player for a long time, 186 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: and I think he knows and feels that he can 187 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: go out and get better and make progress every single 188 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: day that we have a chance to do that. And 189 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 1: even as many years and seasons as he's played, UM, 190 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: that attitude goes along way. And being able to make 191 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: progress at this stage of the season and the stage 192 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: of his career, you know, and UM, I think it's 193 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: a great example for the rest of our team. And 194 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: you know, whether that's using his eyes or his character, 195 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,479 Speaker 1: throwing mechanics or play faking or you know, whatever it is. Um. 196 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: You know, there's always some element that you can get 197 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: better at or improve on. Um, you know, and he's 198 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: he's willing to do that on a daily basis, and 199 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: we're lucky obviously to have him. Thank you, And we 200 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: got time for two final questions here we'll do Mike 201 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: Reese and even Lazarre. We're gonna start with Mike Reese. Mike, 202 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: can you hear us? Ken Mark? Can you hear me? Yep, 203 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: you're good. I can't often. Um, Josh that it's a 204 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: two parter. That's okay. That the first is just on 205 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: your offense. That's a game plan type offense. You know, 206 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: when when you are a game plan offense that changes 207 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: week to week. What are the key characteristics you know 208 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: that you need in your personnel that you look for 209 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: and then definitely want to get your thoughts on this 210 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: chief defense if if you can wrap it up on that. Yep, well, 211 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 1: I think you know. Our offense is really designed around 212 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: the players and whatever the players can do well. We 213 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: try to figure out, you know, what those things are, 214 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: and we usually have a good idea when we bring 215 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: him here, but we really get to know that as 216 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: we go through the year, you know what they do best, 217 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: what they may not do as well, and then try 218 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: to tailor our game plans to allow those players to 219 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: have success as much as we possibly can, and hopefully 220 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: our system has enough depths to it and variety that 221 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 1: we can accommodate a lot of different skill sets, which 222 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 1: is definitely happened over the course of time. And that's 223 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: a good thing because really what you want is you 224 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: want good football players who love football and are willing 225 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: to work at it each week, because this is this 226 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: is not an easy thing to be successful at. Playing 227 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: in this league is tough, and these guys do a 228 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: lot to get themselves ready to go each year and 229 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: each week. And you know, when you have a good 230 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: attitude and um, you know you have certain abilities and 231 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: are willing to study and work hard each week to 232 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: digest the game plan that we're trying to use for 233 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: the specific opponent that we play, then you know, generally, 234 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna be able to fit in. You know, 235 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: like certainly we don't have um cookie cutters, you know, 236 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: at any position. You know, we have a lot of 237 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: different skill sets, a lot of variety, and that's a 238 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: good thing. And hopefully, you know, we can try to 239 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: do the best thing each week and try to put 240 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: those guys in positions to have some success. So, um, 241 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: you don't look for just one thing. I think you know, 242 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: if they if they're a good football player, then hopefully 243 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: we can find a spot you know, in our system 244 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 1: to accommodate that, and and then they can go out 245 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: and help us win. And then the Chiefs, you know, 246 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,359 Speaker 1: the Chiefs defense. Um, you know, we got an opportunity 247 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: to play against him earlier, and it's a you know, 248 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: it's a different group now than what we've played against. Um. 249 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: You know, Houston we didn't see earlier in the year. 250 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: We know how good he is, you know, on the 251 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: edge and things he does, and how much an impact 252 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: he makes their of their team, not only in the 253 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: pass rush, but in the running game. You know, whether 254 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: you know we'll see you know about Barry, but you 255 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: know we seeing him back now in a couple of games. 256 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: Sorenson's back off of ir you know, we were familiar 257 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: with him, but he's playing out ward. We didn't see, 258 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: you know much, And so there's there's there's a lot 259 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: of changes that have taken place here. Um. You know, 260 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: lead the league in sacks really conscious of the ball, 261 00:14:55,400 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: do a great job of creating turnover opportunities for their team, 262 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: U Jones, Uh is as good a player as we 263 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: played in the front all year. Um. This guy is 264 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: tremendously disruptive. Um, not only in a running game, but 265 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: you know as a pass rusher inside. I mean it's 266 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: this is this guy is really a talented player. Forward's 267 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: having a great year. Um. We saw him in the 268 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: first game, and you know as a very disruptive player 269 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: on the edge too. So UM, you know in their 270 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: in their secondary you know, plays a lot of tight coverage. Um. 271 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: You know, they create a lot of opportunities for themselves 272 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: because they're near the ball a lot. Uh, and they've 273 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: been able to take the ball away. So um, you know, 274 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: playing there on the road, you know, certainly a different element. Um. 275 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: You know. So you know, there's lots to change since 276 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: we played him in week six, and um, you know 277 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: this is this is the best team we've played in 278 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: all year obviously, you know, and at this time of 279 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: the year, if you're still alive, you know, uh, you're 280 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: pretty good. So they they've they've demonstrated that over and 281 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: over and over again and played really well the other 282 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: day against any Um. This will be a huge challenge 283 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: for us on the road. Thank you. You gotta thanks guys,
