Speaker 1: What are you guys doing back there? I love.
Speaker 2: That.
Speaker 1: How's your left knee doing? What do you when do
Speaker 1: you do that? Turf?
Speaker 2: Last week in Minnesota got me those terf snakes man, goodness, gracious,
Speaker 2: that's slit turf.
Speaker 1: Pretty sure.
Speaker 2: It's like one of four slit turf fields left and uh,
Speaker 2: statistically the most dangerous turf to play on.
Speaker 1: So it's right though, I'll be all right.
Speaker 2: What's your uh your thumkern on?
Speaker 1: What what's going on with this offense? Seven seventeen points
Speaker 1: three games in a row.
Speaker 2: Is there a common element why you're not scoring more
Speaker 2: points turnovers?
Speaker 1: I would say I don't know.
Speaker 2: I like, I don't read the stats every single week.
Speaker 2: I don't feel like as an offense we're running the
Speaker 2: ball a lot or very much or very well. I
Speaker 2: think is one number one thing just doesn't feel like it.
Speaker 1: You know, we might. I don't know what the stats are.
Speaker 2: I know that ever since I've been a forty nine er, uh,
Speaker 2: you know, outside zone has been like our umber one thing,
Speaker 2: and I just don't know. We know we've penalties the
Speaker 2: last three weeks, so it's kind of hard to run
Speaker 2: the ball when it's first and twenty second and fifteen, Like,
Speaker 2: it's hard to run the ball in those situations, so
Speaker 2: we have to rely on the pass. And when you
Speaker 2: have to rely on the pass, it makes you one dimensional.
Speaker 2: And one of the best things that we do is
Speaker 2: run the football, and we just put ourselves in situation
Speaker 2: where we can't run the football, and whether that's turnovers,
Speaker 2: whether that's penalties, whether it's getting down in the fourth quarter,
Speaker 2: there's no.
Speaker 1: Like, hey, what are is going to fix this? Right?
Speaker 2: We have a very good, talented football team, we have
Speaker 2: good coaches, and we're just not winning the game right now.
Speaker 2: And to me, you know, just being you know, a
Speaker 2: tight end that usually like tip the spear, we had
Speaker 2: to run the football outside zone. I just hopefully we've
Speaker 2: been able to do that because of penalties and turnovers
Speaker 2: and us being a one dimensional football team isn't very good.
Speaker 2: Well several of those turnovers. What do you seek for Brock?
Speaker 1: What do you see for Broc today?
Speaker 2: I mean, broxs the reason we're in every single game.
Speaker 2: Brocks a reason we win football games. He's our quarterb.
Speaker 2: He's a very skilled football player. I think Kyle probably
Speaker 2: said it his first interception, that's a shovel place, so
Speaker 2: it's either pitch it to me or hand it off.
Speaker 2: And you know, I think he might have predetermined it
Speaker 2: and tried to, you know, give me a you know,
Speaker 2: give me a shot at the shovel, but it wasn't there,
Speaker 2: and then you try to make a play and hey,
Speaker 2: they made a better play. I mean, I I don't
Speaker 2: sit back there. Quarterbacks. There's two positions of football I
Speaker 2: would never want to play, and that's quarterback and cornerback.
Speaker 2: So you know those are uh, you know, two tough
Speaker 2: positions and I don't want you know, the only thing
Speaker 2: I'd ask for Ick to do is, hey man.
Speaker 1: Trying to throw interceptions. I don't know. Turnovers are hard,
Speaker 1: Like I'm.
Speaker 2: Not gonna put myself back in that in his shoes
Speaker 2: and say, oh, I wouldn't have made that throw.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it takes to play quarterback. I
Speaker 1: don't play that position.
Speaker 2: All I know is that it's hard to win football
Speaker 2: games when you lose a turnover battle, which we've done
Speaker 2: two weeks in a row. And we obviously just have
Speaker 2: to play better, and we had to put our seven
Speaker 2: situations where we can run the football more and we
Speaker 2: don't throw the ball so many times. Rock after the game.
Speaker 2: You know, one thing I love about Brock is he's
Speaker 2: very hard on himself and he's very like he can
Speaker 2: look in the mirror and say, hey, I know I
Speaker 2: need to play better. I'm not gonna say that he
Speaker 2: needs to play better. We needed to turn the ball
Speaker 2: over less, and you know he was. He's gonna be fine.
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about Brock. He's the reason that we
Speaker 2: win football games as an offense. You see the thirty
Speaker 2: points the game in the first five weeks, that's Brock
Speaker 2: purty and that's it's Kyle Shanean scheming us up and
Speaker 2: doing a bunch of stuff. But that's Brock making plays.
Speaker 2: I mean, then you see Brock, was that the drive
Speaker 2: to get us you know, get it kind of close?
Speaker 1: It was?
Speaker 2: He makes all these awesome rollout plays and he's throwing
Speaker 2: it back across his body, giving us an opportunity to win.
Speaker 1: You know, That's that's what Brock does.
Speaker 2: And he's gonna get better from this. I think we're
Speaker 2: gonna get better from this. I know we're gonna get
Speaker 2: better from it. And you look back, Hey, last year,
Speaker 2: I think we're sitting at three and four we had.
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey added that we still lost and we're like, oh,
Speaker 2: what do we need to fix? We just seem to
Speaker 2: play better. And that's the overall theme. We just seem
Speaker 2: to play better. And I also, losing your third game
Speaker 2: going into a bye week, Ah, that's not really fun.
Speaker 2: But the good news is is it kind of you
Speaker 2: sit on that. It's kind of faster and it's going
Speaker 2: to be really annoying. And am I gonna be able
Speaker 2: to enjoy.
Speaker 1: My bye week?
Speaker 2: I will, but the back of my head is just
Speaker 2: going to be like, let's stop stop losing, and how
Speaker 2: am I going to be better? What can I do better?
Speaker 2: And there's like three or four plays that I probably
Speaker 2: could have been better in that football game. And you know,
Speaker 2: we'll come back and we'll look at the film and
Speaker 2: I'm gonna play better.
Speaker 1: Over Confident Dallas thirty two. No, I don't think it's
Speaker 1: a confidence thing.
Speaker 2: You look at the like we going to Cleveland, and
Speaker 2: you know, I wouldn't say overconfident. We should be confident
Speaker 2: because of the players and the staff that we have. Like,
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about that. I think it's a you
Speaker 2: look at Cleveland what do we have fifteen penalties? You
Speaker 2: can't win a football game with fifteen penalties and multiple turnovers, like,
Speaker 2: I mean, you can. It's just really, you know, we
Speaker 2: had an opportuny to win at the end, we didn't.
Speaker 2: And I don't think it's an overconfidence thing. I think
Speaker 2: it's a grant. I can't give you an answer on
Speaker 2: why we're losing sides turnovers. I don't think we're running
Speaker 2: the ball enough, and situationally, I don't think we can
Speaker 2: run the ball because of where the situation we're putting
Speaker 2: ourselves in. And well, I mean also I think you know,
Speaker 2: we have an offense with explosive players all over the
Speaker 2: football field, and you know we can win these games.
Speaker 2: And we had an opportunity down there. We're seventeen to
Speaker 2: ten and hey, we have a turnover. Turnovers really hurt you.
Speaker 2: And you know, I'm not gonna there's no point of
Speaker 2: fingers like that. Like there's players that the players that
Speaker 2: we made all over the football field. But it's hard
Speaker 2: to win football games when you have three turnovers.
Speaker 1: Usually this is uh, when you when this team is rolling,
Speaker 1: keep it going.
Speaker 2: Is it weird to start so well and didn't have
Speaker 2: this it's supposed to maybe start slow.
Speaker 1: And finish withrow. I mean, Losy is weird in general.
Speaker 1: I hate it. It sucks.
Speaker 2: I'd much rather win. But you know, years past, like you,
Speaker 2: we backed ourselves into a corner, you know, backs against
Speaker 2: the wall, whatever it was, and you know, we dug
Speaker 2: down and we went on runs and we're able to
Speaker 2: put ourselves in positions to get into the playoffs. And
Speaker 2: you know, what's football without a little adversity. And you
Speaker 2: don't want it to be easy all the time. You
Speaker 2: want to go through these grimy games, these crappy games.
Speaker 2: I guess you know you'd prefer to win them. But
Speaker 2: I think we have the team. We have the man
Speaker 2: on this team that are gonna respond well to adversity.
Speaker 2: We're gonna do our best and we're gonna out there
Speaker 2: and we're gonna play at a high level. We wanna
Speaker 2: play better the outside zone. Our team, you know, our
Speaker 2: defense is selling out to stop that more so than
Speaker 2: they have in the past. I mean, first play the
Speaker 2: game is outside zone with eight yards, you can sell
Speaker 2: out against it. There's certain plays that we run, we
Speaker 2: run better than anybody else. It's a copycat league. You
Speaker 2: see people run them all over the league, and they
Speaker 2: don't run them nearly as well as us. You don't
Speaker 2: have the offensive line, the tight ends, the full back,
Speaker 2: the running back that runs like we do, the wide
Speaker 2: receivers a block downfield like we do. Like I said,
Speaker 2: it's I love running outside zone because when you have
Speaker 2: outside zone, you get to run play action, boot legs,
Speaker 2: keepers all off of it. And when you have turnovers
Speaker 2: and you have penalties and you're playing behind sticks and
Speaker 2: you're playing down on, it's hard to run the football
Speaker 2: and get access to all those plays. And so we
Speaker 2: need to be cleaner up front early on, so then
Speaker 2: we can continue to run the football, run outside zone,
Speaker 2: run some gap scheme, and be the physical four nine
Speaker 2: ers offense that you know we know in love.
Speaker 1: Thanks guys, no, thank you
