It was like I 456 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 12: did it so obviously, Like I said, my teammates pushed me, 457 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 12: being there every day for me really help me. 458 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 5: And then what do you guys you have to do 459 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 5: to get uh to a better start? Okay? 460 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, I thought the offense started out really good. 461 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 2: Straight down the field. 462 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 12: Defensively, Uh, you know, we'd give up a couple of plays, 463 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 12: uh end up getting a stop, uh hold it to 464 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 12: a field goal. 465 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 2: So again, not the great start that you want, but 466 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 2: I thought it was solid enough. Right now, we we 467 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 2: gotta finish. 468 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 12: We gotta finish games, and no matter how it looks 469 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 12: you know, we going the fourth quarter, you know, think, 470 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 12: h midway through the fourth point, it's twenty to nineteen. Defensively, 471 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 12: we gotta find a way to get stop and keep 472 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 12: getting stops and don't let the game get away from 473 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 12: the same thing in the uh Denver game. You know, 474 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 12: I think we're right there seventeen twelve and the fourth 475 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 12: quarter one play and then we don't get a stop 476 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 12: on defense, and this the game gets away from us. 477 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 12: So we gotta worry about, you know, obviously the details 478 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 12: and the fundamentals and everything like that, but I think 479 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 12: we need to finish better as a team. 480 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 6: How did you you know, what did you think as 481 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 6: you watched that grew some ankle injury and Trevor Laws, 482 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 6: you know, and then sure you guys wanted to want 483 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 6: him to be out there facing you. 484 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 5: You wanna play the. 485 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: Best of the guest.

But uh, Yeah, a another guy, 518 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 12: like I said, just better and b better in pressents. 519 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 12: You can never underestimate that as a quarterback, you seen everything, 520 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 12: Like I said, can get those guys in the in 521 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 12: the right places. And at the end of the day, 522 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 12: they have playmakers to get the ball too, so I 523 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 12: know he could do that really well. 524 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 2: And uh, that's how they attacked defenses. 525 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 6: So your lis, Uh trip didn't go the way that 526 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 6: you guys wanted to.

Obviously, 530 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 12: we lost two games, but I think that whole trip 531 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 12: we got closer. We were able to spend time together 532 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 12: similar to Greenbrier, So I wouldn't trade that. Obviously, you 533 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 12: definitely wanna trade the win the losses for wins, but 534 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 12: I I feel like we got better and I feel 535 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 12: like if we go on the run. 536 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 2: You know, to you know, end the season. 537 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 12: You know, we don't even look at those two losses. 538 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 12: We look at how we got closer as a team, 539 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 12: and that's how I'm looking at it.

H 723 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 14: same guy when when we're up, same guy when we're down. 724 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 14: Provides great leadership just in being that that voice in 725 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 14: the locker room can does a great job of encouraging 726 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 14: his teammates one on one. You know, there's so much 727 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 14: of leadership that nobody sees. And uh, I just know 728 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 14: that he's in our building providing a really positive impact 729 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 14: really every day. 730 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 9: On a way to rough the ball on Sunday, everything 731 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 9: with just a little crisper and cleaner in terms of 732 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 9: like play action things like that. Were we surprised at 733 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 9: how all those little nuances of you know, whether it's 734 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 9: faking the handoff or dropping his shoulder or all that kind. 735 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 5: Of stuff came back him so naturally. 736 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think he's a pro. 737 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 14: You know, he's been around, he's been very well coached 738 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 14: in his career, so he all those nuances like you 739 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 14: mentioned Tom about the play action games, he's been coached 740 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 14: up very hard on those things. So no, not surprised, 741 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 14: but it's something that he's worked hard at throughout his career. 742 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 10: Govern I know, obviously the injuries have factored into this 743 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 10: week to week quarterback. 744 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 5: Thing, but. 745 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 10: You feel like you're gonna at some point here be 746 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 10: able to settle on one guy this for this team 747 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 10: really gel abound here should go. 748 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 5: Through this stretch run. 749 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 13: Yeah. I think for us we really have to. 750 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 14: As you've seen throughout this season, you really have to 751 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 14: worry about the week you're in and focus on the 752 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 14: week you're in, and that's really what we're going to do. 753 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 14: It's you know, we talked every week, it's how do 754 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 14: you win this game? 755 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 13: That's what you're focused on. 756 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 6: Are some of the things that maybe Dorian was starting 757 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 6: to show you that if he is completely strung, might 758 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 6: make this a little bit of a. 759 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 5: Difficult decision for him. 760 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 761 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 14: I think Dorian continues to get better. You know, we've 762 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 14: talked about him, Mary Kay just think back to preseason. 763 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 14: Got better throughout the preseason. I think has gotten better 764 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 14: throughout this season. I think we've all seen his skill 765 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 14: set and know what type of player he is. But 766 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 14: I think he's working very hard to continue to improve 767 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 14: as this season wears on. 768 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 5: Well, Jed Will's I think you could start practicing today. 769 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: I think we'll be out there.

Injuries happen to everybody, and it's week to week, 781 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 14: and our guys understand that because that's the reality of 782 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 14: the NFL. So those are things that we deal with 783 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 14: in game in week, and like we've talked about, you know, 784 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 14: nobody likes injuries. Nobody wants to see their teammates out 785 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 14: for a game or a quarter or the season. But 786 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 14: they also know that we have a job to do, 787 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 14: and I think they've recognized that when it's time to 788 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 14: step up, you have to. 789 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 7: Is it specual of injuries Jaguars are dealing with a 790 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 7: major one there with with Krebor, how do you balance 791 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 7: you know, the potential of him playing, but also you know, getting. 792 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 2: Ready for for c.

You know, with Bethard there's there's 799 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 14: tape on him as well, so we know what his 800 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 14: strengths are. And you know he led the team the 801 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 14: other night and put him in position, so he's a 802 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 14: very very heavy football player. 803 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 7: Okay, this is a little bit of a usual situation 804 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 7: because you want of the quarterbacks is still in the 805 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,479 Speaker 7: quartacom So can you say, like Victoria includes the protocol 806 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 7: and he's able to frank us all week, can you 807 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 7: say be your starter or you still want you still 808 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 7: have a decision. 809 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think we got to see how it goes. 810 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 14: I think that's what's important in this situation. Dorian's obviously 811 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 14: hasn't cleared just yet, but he's going to practice, so 812 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 14: I want to see how it looks. 813 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,479 Speaker 11: I know you talk Sunday and then on Monday about 814 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 11: getting clarification on the sort of false start moving moving 815 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 11: the ball. 816 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 5: Did you get any more clarification on that? 817 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 11: And I guess is that just something that's unique to 818 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 11: just situational league what we're seeing with I know you 819 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 11: mentioned the Brotherly Shows situation there plays. 820 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 13: I talked to the league. I'm not going to get 821 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 13: into all the specifics. I would tell you, you. 822 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 14: Know, it's definitely a point of emphasis for them right now, 823 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 14: whereas it wasn't, you know, and we've gone many years 824 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 14: here with that not being called. But now that that's 825 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 14: how they're officiating it, we have to obviously abide by 826 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 14: the rules to the tea uh and we're not trying 827 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 14: to skirt any rules. We're certainly in this in these scenarios. 828 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 14: We're not trying at all to gain advantage, but we 829 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 14: have to adjust based on how they're calling it. 830 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 5: They give your point of emphasis like pre game, right, 831 00:34:59,160 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 5: are they talking? 832 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 14: There's videos that go out each week that and then 833 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 14: you kind of know kind of through their grapevine, and 834 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,879 Speaker 14: then pre game, Yes, I talk to the officials every 835 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 14: game about certain things. 836 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 5: Ethan said, didn't get a warning. Would that be It's 837 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 5: great for them to tell a guy, hey. 838 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 13: Watch this. They warn They definitely warn you on certain things. 839 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 13: A lot of times. 840 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 14: What happens I think in every single game they warn 841 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 14: your tackle about being too deep. That happens every week, 842 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 14: and then you tell the tackle to move up. 843 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 4: Uh. 844 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 14: In this case, we did not get a warning. I 845 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 14: don't know if that's something that moving forward they will do. 846 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 14: I think that would be fair in this instance. If 847 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 14: you see it on a second and five and you 848 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,800 Speaker 14: see a movement that you would deem, you know, illegal 849 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 14: or false start, whatever, whatever it may be, I think 850 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 14: that would be fair. Ethan's gonna work hard to make 851 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 14: sure that this doesn't happen, and then we're gonna coach 852 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 14: it up as. 853 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 2: Such and adjust the ball so the laces are where 854 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 2: you want. 855 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 14: Yeah, it's interesting. I've studied more center ball handling than 856 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 14: I ever have in my life this week, Jeff, I 857 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 14: think each guy's a little bit different. 858 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 13: Some guys take it and roll it, some guys move 859 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 13: it back, some guys move forward. 860 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 14: Sometimes when you're leaning back to talk to the quarterback 861 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 14: or the other players, you may move the ball a 862 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,240 Speaker 14: little bit so there's obviously a little bit of movement 863 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 14: that goes on with every single play. I think the 864 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 14: league is trying to make sure that there's no unfair 865 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 14: advantage game by the offense in these situations are starting. 866 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 7: E can kind of move it the same way every time? 867 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 13: Like, did that feel like consistent without other pretty consistent? 868 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? 869 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,839 Speaker 7: I know it's only been a couple of days for Mari, 870 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 7: but how have you seen him an improvement? 871 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 2: Have you seen improvement out of him? 872 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 11: And where are you? 873 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 13: Yeah, when it comes to the protocol, you just have 874 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 13: to follow it to a t and that's what we'll do. 875 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:45,399 Speaker 2: What's your door national order? 876 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, I'm not I don't even Yeah, I think I 877 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 14: have the app, but that's kind of my wife handles 878 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 14: the door dash for us. 879 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 5: So you install the RPOs for flaper this week? 880 00:36:54,800 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 13: Then? Is that we got to see Tom's. 881 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 9: He's the Convention quarter right, He's this straight drop back whatever. 882 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:04,760 Speaker 9: Is there still a place for that in the NFL? 883 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 9: I mean with all the talk of mobile quarterbacks. 884 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 14: And yeah, I mean obviously yes in his instance. I 885 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 14: just think, yeah, you certainly have seen and we've all 886 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 14: seen that this position go through different changes. I was 887 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 14: just talking about Randall Cunningham yesterday. Actually where he was, 888 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 14: he was ahead of his time. Just think about what 889 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,959 Speaker 14: he would be doing in this league. But it's it's cyclical, maybe, 890 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 14: but there's there's multiple ways to play this position. There's 891 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 14: multiple ways to be impactful for your offense. And regardless 892 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 14: of who our quarterback is, you have to play through 893 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 14: the strengths of your quarterback. 894 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 10: One of the great mysteries besides who your quarterback is 895 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 10: every week this season is just there seems to be 896 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 10: a little bit of a disparity in the defense home 897 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 10: first row. 898 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,919 Speaker 5: Have you noticed that? And you know what do you think? 899 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 5: Has you know led today? Is it just the road environment, 900 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 5: the advantage of playing at home? 901 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 13: Good? 902 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think you have to be careful with sample 903 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 14: size always. I will tell you we like playing at home. 904 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 12: We do. 905 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 14: I like having our crowd into it. I like the 906 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 14: juice that it gives our defense. I like that it 907 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 14: makes life hard on the opposing offense. Having said that, 908 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 14: you know, you still want to play good defense, good 909 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 14: offense on the road as well. But I do think 910 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 14: we have a very distinct home field advantage. Good gosh, Yeah, 911 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,720 Speaker 14: he's a premier pass rusher. He's good I say pass rusher, 912 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 14: but he's good versus. 913 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 13: The run as well. 914 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 14: He can win in a variety of ways off the edge, 915 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:46,399 Speaker 14: has an unbelievable motor. Just doesn't stop and walk around 916 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 14: the other sides. You know, a challenge as well. So 917 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 14: they have two really really good ends in a really 918 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 14: good defense. I mean it's a top defense for a reason. 919 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 14: I think that's a really good scheme. They can pressure 920 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 14: the quarterback, they can stop the run, and I think 921 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 14: they're good in the back end. They take the ball away. 922 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 14: So it's a huge challenge. 923 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: That's today's from the Podium podcast.
