<v Speaker 3>group effort as kind of affording the targets there to

<v Speaker 2>Oh, absolutely, it's gonna be an opportunity. You know, We'll

0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:00.240
<v Speaker 2>move guys around, Guys will play spots based on the

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 2>game plan and and the ball will kind of go

0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:05.200
<v Speaker 2>where it goes based on the way. Uh, it unfolds

0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:07.120
<v Speaker 2>in terms of how they play us and kind of

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:08.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, take what the defense gives you, kind of

0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:11.080
<v Speaker 2>an opportunity. So we've got a lot of weapons and

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 2>uh and Lamarrow distribute that thing the way he sees

0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 2>fit play to play so much. They don't do even

0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 2>the preset oft stuff.

0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 5>I mean, does it does his absence do you take

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:21.479
<v Speaker 5>away anything that's in your get play?

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 2>No, We've still got all our place, all the players

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:24.840
<v Speaker 2>that we run, guys will be doing them that are

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.760
<v Speaker 2>we feel our best suited to do the different jobs.

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:30.440
<v Speaker 2>And in this game against the opponent we're playing.

0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 5>How much does it help happen Justice Hill back keeping

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:36.679
<v Speaker 5>you know we're still coming back as well.

0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>I think helps a lot. I mean, you know, Justice

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:42.800
<v Speaker 2>as an experienced player, Uh, he's been in these games before.

0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:45.000
<v Speaker 2>He's really vers stile in terms of what he can

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 2>do skill set wise. I mean, he can take some

0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 2>of those jobs you're talking about that Zay does. He

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>can see in the backfield he's out of the backfield.

0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 2>You can put two backs back there. It just gives

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 2>you a lot of options with Justice.

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:56.880
<v Speaker 4>Obviously, this is a big time of the year. A

0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:00.000
<v Speaker 4>big game of what's kind of Zay's mentality right now,

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:02.240
<v Speaker 4>knowing that he will missed his game time.

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.840
<v Speaker 2>He's locked in on his rehab. I mean, he's locked in.

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Every time I walk in there, he's in there working

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.720
<v Speaker 2>on it. And we'll see how it looks next week.

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:13.919
<v Speaker 5>Jem, We've got you about the offensive line a lot throughout,

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 5>you know, even going back to the offseason. But you've

0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 5>been able to start the same five since I think

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:20.239
<v Speaker 5>it's week four and last week. But carry that, I

0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 5>think that's about the only time anyone had missed because

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 5>of hell. How valuable has it been to build that continuity,

0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:31.160
<v Speaker 5>to build that cohesiveness when you're now entering that second seam.

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:31.960
<v Speaker 3>Very valuable.

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's important in every position. You know, it's important

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:39.239
<v Speaker 2>in football. It's an eleven it's an eleven player sport.

0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's a lot of moving parts there, and

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:44.000
<v Speaker 2>it's always it's always about being cohesive and being on

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.880
<v Speaker 2>the same page and timing and I mean those line

0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.600
<v Speaker 2>blocks in there, combination blocks, the communication part of it.

0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, that's something that really builds up over time.

0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>And we work the other guys in too, in case

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:55.720
<v Speaker 2>and those guys, but those guys haven't a chance to

0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 2>work together all season, you know, and it was a

0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:00.200
<v Speaker 2>new group, as you know. So I think that's been

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:01.959
<v Speaker 2>really really a big part of the success there.

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 3>Quick how you're going about the weather in the atmosphere?

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 4>It comes Saturday, and now even.

0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Get yeah excited about the I'm I'm more excited about

0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:12.840
<v Speaker 2>the atmosphere than the weather personally. But uh, you know,

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.040
<v Speaker 2>I think the the weather major aft of the atmosphere

0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 2>a little bit too. You know, it's gonna be it's

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:19.480
<v Speaker 2>just gonna be great, a great environment. I expect our

0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 2>fans to be how they are, you know there. They'll

0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 2>be into it, they'll be fired up. It's gonna be

0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 2>a night game. It's gonna be cold. Uh, it's gonna

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:30.880
<v Speaker 2>be dark, and our our team is gonna, you know,

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 2>try to play lights out. You know, we're gonna try

0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 2>to play the kind of football that we're capable of playing.

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 2>But uh, I think our fans will be there to

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>to help us and support us and and be loud

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.960

<v Speaker 2>of the NFL playoffs. It's the most it's the most

0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:23.039
<v Speaker 2>exciting thing in the world. To take that field with

<v Speaker 2>it's tough to win. You're playing the best teams. One

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.440
<v Speaker 2>game deal. It's not a seven game series. You know,

0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:40.720
<v Speaker 2>you don't you don't have a chance to come back

0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.279
<v Speaker 2>to next you got to it's a it might be

0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:45.279
<v Speaker 2>a seven series game, you know, that's what it might be.

0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:46.840
<v Speaker 2>You know, you've got to find a way to make

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:50.120
<v Speaker 2>the most of every series in that game and and

0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:51.920
<v Speaker 2>try to find a way to win the game and

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:55.280
<v Speaker 2>figure it out as you go within the game. So yeah,

0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:58.120
<v Speaker 2>it's great, it's it's awesome players as you kind of

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 2>businesslike could lose when we've been around the I mean,

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:01.640
<v Speaker 2>do you like what you're feeling from them?

0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:02.160
<v Speaker 5>I do.

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.719
<v Speaker 2>I see the same thing. I see exactly that childs.

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they're ready to go, They've worked hard, they've

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 2>it's not you know, it's we don't look at like

0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 2>a new season. We look at like an extension of

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:12.520
<v Speaker 2>the season. It's we are who we are based on

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:14.480
<v Speaker 2>what we've done and how hard we've worked, and we

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 2>want to keep building on that. Play our best football

0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:17.479
<v Speaker 2>right now.

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.680
<v Speaker 1>What was the focus for you guys in today's practice.

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:22.560
<v Speaker 6>I think we were maybe expected to go outside and

0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:23.560
<v Speaker 6>see you guys practicing there.

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:25.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, when we were outside the first two days, you know,

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:27.960
<v Speaker 2>and we got all of our fast work out there,

0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 2>all of our timing. You know, you do get used to,

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, throwing and catching in the cold, the wind,

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>blowing the ball around, those kind of things, you know,

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:37.440
<v Speaker 2>bumping into each other, as much as we can and

0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:40.920
<v Speaker 2>practice in the cold. But today was an execution day.

0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:41.280
<v Speaker 3>Day.

0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:45.279
<v Speaker 2>Today was a mental sweat, you know, we like to

0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 2>call it sometimes, and we were chasing perfect technique, perfect communication,

0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 2>perfect execution.

0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Today, turn over, marketing.

0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.679
<v Speaker 3>Focus, playoff in general.

0:05:57.279 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Had to go about the builds without number one.

0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:04.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, I think what you said, the last part

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 2>of it right there was probably the key thing technique sound.

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.279
<v Speaker 2>You know, just focus on technique sound and keep it simple.

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 2>H You know, I've heard it stated by a former

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Pittsburgh Steelers coach that greatness is doing the ordinary things

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:22.440
<v Speaker 2>better than everybody else. And doing the ordinary things is

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.479
<v Speaker 2>the techniques in football, you know, doing the football stuff,

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.479
<v Speaker 2>the self evident truths, you know, whether it's you know,

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:33.120
<v Speaker 2>ball handling or throwing and catching, exchanging, defensively, tackling, punching

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:37.560
<v Speaker 2>balls out, things like that that that relate to ball

0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:41.279
<v Speaker 2>security or takeaways. And that's it's important in every game,

0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:44.360
<v Speaker 2>and it's critically important in the playoffs for sure, and

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure they'll be locked in for it and we'll

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 2>be locked in for it too. And which every team

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 2>does a better job with that, it's going to have

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.599
<v Speaker 2>a better chance to win the game.

0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 3>What's the meaning behind the T shirt?

0:06:56.480 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 2>They're good good good if you look it up. Jocko

0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Willink I think is the author of it. But the

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 2>idea basically is, you have a tough situation, good, you know,

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to become tougher. You know, you have a disappointment

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 2>or set back, good, opportunity to get better, prove yourself.

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, every situation you face is an opportunity. And

0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:21.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, if you can say good, that's good because

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 2>you're still breathing. You may still be bleeding, but you're

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 2>still bleeding and that's good. So that's kind of what

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:30.240
<v Speaker 2>we've had that along with one and oh, have been

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.320
<v Speaker 2>two things that we've been focusing on throughout.

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 3>John.

0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:36.720
<v Speaker 2>Do you guys have any players or staff affected by

0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.760
<v Speaker 2>the buyers over in LA I'm not sure. You know,

0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 2>my brother and his family are about ten miles south

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:47.120
<v Speaker 2>of it right now, so I know our family does.

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 2>We have a lot of friends over there obviously with

0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:53.880
<v Speaker 2>the chargers. So hopefully that thing gets contained. Hopefully they

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:56.840
<v Speaker 2>find some water to contain it. With what I read

0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:01.880
<v Speaker 2>they didn't have water, what a for shure. So our

0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.000
<v Speaker 2>prayers will be with them for sure, and if they

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:05.800
<v Speaker 2>get that contained, a lot of people have lost a

0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:10.160
<v Speaker 2>lot unfortunately. But thanks for bringing that up. All good,

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:11.200
<v Speaker 2>All right, thanks.

0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>As Hardball mentioned, wide receiver Zay Flowers is out for

0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 1>this game, which means that there's gonna be more on

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:24.000
<v Speaker 1>the plate Overshot Bateman. Bateman talk with reporters today in

0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 1>the locker room after practice.

0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 4>Like you said, they's not gonna play, but you've had

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 4>a great v Are you just how excited are you

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 4>to get into this game? I'm definitely excited.

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:36.640
<v Speaker 2>A lot of work is going in to getting us

0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 2>to this joint. You definitely hate Isay's not gonna figure

0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.400
<v Speaker 2>out that with us, but I trust that I've got

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 2>to make the job doing it.

0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 3>That's all good. A fortune.

0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:46.080
<v Speaker 2>Hey, what stands out to you about what we need

0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 2>to you to be successful in the play games?

0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:48.280
<v Speaker 5>Uh?

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 3>Just be myself. Don't go out there and do anything

0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 3>that I haven't done, or try to be anything that's strict.

0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:57.000
<v Speaker 3>Just be myself and make place. Obviously you hate to

0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:58.719
<v Speaker 3>see the t not be out there.

0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:01.959
<v Speaker 5>Uh, to sure meet your job talk, but is there

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.840
<v Speaker 5>part of you that relss an opportunity to be you.

0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Know, more targets mot walls and pack that sort of stuff.

0:09:07.840 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 2>The situation that we have on our hands doesn't It

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:13.040
<v Speaker 2>doesn't change anything about me and my role and what

0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 2>I gotta do.

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:16.840
<v Speaker 3>My job is squaw to make players. Nobody know who's

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:17.360
<v Speaker 3>on the field.

0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:20.240
<v Speaker 2>So it might look a little different as far as

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.679
<v Speaker 2>where I'm at and different things, but overall.

0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:24.960
<v Speaker 3>We got a football games and playing I gotta go,

0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, playball.

0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:32.000
<v Speaker 1>We also heard from running back Justice Hill, who's expected

0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>to be back in the lineup after missing the last

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:35.320
<v Speaker 1>two games.

0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:42.559
<v Speaker 6>I'm I think we are capable of making plays, and

0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:46.080
<v Speaker 6>so I think anybody that goes out there more than

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:49.800
<v Speaker 6>confident first in themselves, and the coaches are confident in

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.560
<v Speaker 6>them making the plays too. So obviously as the big

0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:56.840
<v Speaker 6>losses a special player and hopefully it heals up really

0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.000
<v Speaker 6>soon that we can get him back here before end

0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:02.280
<v Speaker 6>of a run. But cool, yeah, man, we all step

0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:02.960
<v Speaker 6>up and make place.

0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:05.079
<v Speaker 1>This is just how you're you to get back on

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the field.

0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:06.840
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I'm ready to play.

0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 3>Man.

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:11.280
<v Speaker 6>It's a playoff game at Pittsburgh, so uh, I'm I'm excited.

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:13.839
<v Speaker 4>What what do you we do you like?

0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:15.840
<v Speaker 1>What do you take past playoff experiences and how does

0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:16.720
<v Speaker 1>that have help.

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:17.559
<v Speaker 3>This team moving forward.

0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:21.280
<v Speaker 6>Uh, I think for me, it's just another game. Just

0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:23.280
<v Speaker 6>go out there just like it's a practice and training camp,

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.600
<v Speaker 6>and uh just just be be in a moment for real.

0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.520
<v Speaker 6>Just make plays and do what you always do them

0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:31.480
<v Speaker 6>then make make the moment bigger than what it really is.

0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:33.360
<v Speaker 6>And so uh, I think that's the thing for all

0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:35.920
<v Speaker 6>of us, Uh, especially now that we've been uh to

0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:38.480
<v Speaker 6>playoff games and uh we've seen both sides of it. Uh,

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:40.599
<v Speaker 6>I think we just going there levelhead and just go

0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 6>and go play.

0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:43.160
<v Speaker 5>Oh what do you think it's gonna be?

0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 3>Saturday nights to the stadium.

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.800
<v Speaker 6>But hopefully Uh no, the weather don't scare to me

0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.120
<v Speaker 6>people all, but I think it's gonna be regardless.

0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 3>Man.

0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.480
<v Speaker 6>You know Baltimore fans, especially with this game being who

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 6>it is against, uh, they gonna be out showing out.

0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:58.480
<v Speaker 5>So when you haven't played for for that long, is

0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:01.520
<v Speaker 5>there anything you do different to your extra to kind

0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:04.040
<v Speaker 5>of get back into that into that.

0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 6>Mode of like when you were playing with I mean

0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:09.719
<v Speaker 6>I mean that long. It was only a week and

0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:11.599
<v Speaker 6>so I mean we played two games, but it was

0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:15.160
<v Speaker 6>short weeks and all that stuff. But uh, I mean

0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:18.079
<v Speaker 6>it's football. I mean it's like riding the bike. I

0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 6>mean you can go all year it out playing and

0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:21.640
<v Speaker 6>you can come back and know what to do. So

0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:24.520
<v Speaker 6>I don't think being out is gonna affect me much

0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:26.000
<v Speaker 6>at all. I'm just ready to get back out there

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:26.320
<v Speaker 6>and play.

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.040
<v Speaker 1>We also heard from linebacker A Dafe away.

0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:41.040
<v Speaker 3>Just to play hard, compete, and you know it just

0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 3>one one of four, you know, just to get to

0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:43.640
<v Speaker 3>the big one.

0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:46.760
<v Speaker 4>So let me see right now, when you watch Pittsburgh's offense,

0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:48.959
<v Speaker 4>obviously not a lot of points but on score, but

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:51.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure you'll find things that still makes them dangerous.

0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:56.079
<v Speaker 3>What do I see? Yeah, I mean any offense, the

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 3>NFL offense, so they can make anything happen. But you know,

0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 3>they try to make a lot of big chunk plays

0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.960
<v Speaker 3>where we just kind of stop those. I like our

0:12:04.000 --> 0:12:06.839
<v Speaker 3>defensive line against you know what they do. So just

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 3>gonna go out there and compete.

0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:11.000
<v Speaker 4>Coming on with your first double digit sack season, where's

0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.000
<v Speaker 4>your confidence level going into this playoff?

0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 3>Very confident if I try to take that into every game,

0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:19.520
<v Speaker 3>just trying to make a play out there. Feel like

0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:21.360
<v Speaker 3>you make your name out in the playoff games and

0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:23.959
<v Speaker 3>and what what better game to make it against the Steelers,

0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:25.600
<v Speaker 3>you know, so yeah, very excited.

0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 4>Your Zio talked about being air for can't you see

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:31.520
<v Speaker 4>both quarterbacks, you know, and justin field to play Repster.

0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:32.440
<v Speaker 4>How does it affect things?

0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:36.720
<v Speaker 3>They sprintle it and both quarterbacks, it's a little bit.

0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:37.040
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 3>I feel like both of them, they're kind of the

0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:40.720
<v Speaker 3>same but a little different.

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 5>You know.

0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.719
<v Speaker 3>Uh, Justice is gonna run a little bit more, so

0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:45.719
<v Speaker 3>we gotta, you know, we gotta be more disciplined in

0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:49.800
<v Speaker 3>how we play. Let's play action run uh run type downs.

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:50.800
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 3>You know, Russ sees more of the vets, so he's

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:54.959
<v Speaker 3>gonna take more of the chances. I feel like, so

0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:57.680
<v Speaker 3>we gotta play those on this too. But I feel

0:12:57.679 --> 0:12:59.600
<v Speaker 3>like both of them can get after so it's gonna

0:12:59.600 --> 0:12:59.920
