Speaker 1: This week. Yeah, I mean the way we play is
Speaker 1: full tilt, right, so you know there's gonna be miss tackles. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, if if one guy's shooting, one guy's you know,
Speaker 1: going his going one hundred percent to the ball. You know,
Speaker 1: if he make a runner makes a move, there's gonna
Speaker 1: be a mistackle. But um, obviously the angle and and
Speaker 1: and we work on all that stuff. We work on
Speaker 1: tackling every day, especially at the linebacker position. But um,
Speaker 1: you know one thing we prod ourselves is gang tackling
Speaker 1: and everybody rallying to the ball. You know, because if
Speaker 1: that first person does miss, um, there needs to be
Speaker 1: a gang of guys they're ready to clean them up.
Speaker 1: So you know, I think we do a great job
Speaker 1: of that. Everybody's hustlings the ball. If you watch the film, um,
Speaker 1: but yeah, obviously you want to make every tackle. You
Speaker 1: get see some of the things with watchings Offensive, the
Speaker 1: way they spread the ball around, that's a little similar teams,
Speaker 1: like they try to utilize a lot of people together. Um,
Speaker 1: and they've got a lot of weapons as well, So
Speaker 1: we got to be ready for it. I think we
Speaker 1: got a really good game plan going in. Um. But
Speaker 1: you know that's something that's that's their advantage. They trust
Speaker 1: their guys. They um, you know, have a lot of
Speaker 1: confidence in what they do. So yeah, we'll be ready.
Speaker 1: He's a proven guy, you know, somebody who is has
Speaker 1: took his team to you know, whin the win the
Speaker 1: conference division last year and then um into the playoffs,
Speaker 1: so you know, he's somebody that can get hot at
Speaker 1: any moment and trust his arm, you know, trust like
Speaker 1: I said, trust this guys um and tries to fit
Speaker 1: those windows. So UM, I believe if you know, we
Speaker 1: play tight coverage, we'll be able to get get after
Speaker 1: him a little bit. Um. Let our defensive line eat
Speaker 1: and UM. You know, I think that'll be the key
Speaker 1: to the game. Obviously it's a division game, and obviously
Speaker 1: when it win every week. But do you feel like
Speaker 1: there's any extra motivation this week because of how it
Speaker 1: close you were in the troity loss and now this
Speaker 1: is your first division game of the season. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think you know, going into the Vision, you know
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get um a tough, heart nosed game. UM,
Speaker 1: and we've got to be ready for that, and especially
Speaker 1: going against the rescuing So you know, it's something that
Speaker 1: I think we're ready for um based on the last game.
Speaker 1: I don't think that the last game really has much
Speaker 1: to do with what we're doing now. The mood, the um,
Speaker 1: you know, the feel, the vibe after the game was
Speaker 1: everybody was positive and UM, we know we've got a
Speaker 1: good team. We've just got to execute. And so I
Speaker 1: think we've kind of gone back to more of what
Speaker 1: we do, you know, as as a defense, as a team,
Speaker 1: UM and and focusing on that so that when we
Speaker 1: get in those tight games, in those situations, you know
Speaker 1: you're not relying on one play to make or break.
Speaker 1: You know you've you've kind of given yourself a cushion.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's kind of where we're at a positive
Speaker 1: back to that. After the game, you Douglas saying, you
Speaker 1: guys are already on your iPads because you're just a
Speaker 1: different approach this year. You can set to after games
Speaker 1: win or lose, and what you saw last year. I
Speaker 1: think guys were doing that last year as well. UM.
Speaker 1: I just think coming off of a game like that,
Speaker 1: it stinks because you know that we had the game
Speaker 1: right there, so you know, guys are eager, and that's
Speaker 1: the vibe. I your guys are eager to learn or
Speaker 1: eager to to fix the problems. Um. And it's I'm
Speaker 1: telling you, this is a team. You know, We've got
Speaker 1: a good team going right now. And you know, when
Speaker 1: when our offense isn't playing well, the defense plays well.
Speaker 1: In the defense isn't playing well, the offense keeps it
Speaker 1: together and special teams holds it all. Um. But you know,
Speaker 1: I think we're we're you know, it's not fake, man,
Speaker 1: this this team really does love each other and it's
Speaker 1: a it's really becoming a close knit a group. That's seriously,
Speaker 1: you know. I I I think over the course of
Speaker 1: the season, I think that's kind of what he sees
Speaker 1: is over the course of the season, what's um, how's
Speaker 1: my body going to be? You know, week thirteen, fourteen fifteen?
Speaker 1: You know, and if he can you know, the way
Speaker 1: he I think I think the way he's thinking is,
Speaker 1: you know, if he could get two series here throughout
Speaker 1: the game, um, you know, and and the way it
Speaker 1: stacks up, that's a few games, you know, and and
Speaker 1: taking off a few games after you know, coming off
Speaker 1: with a season and the injury, um, and keep me fresh,
Speaker 1: I think is heavy on their mind and We trust
Speaker 1: our guys. You know, we've got Toller who's playing in
Speaker 1: this who's played in this defense since he was a rookie. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, and you've got Kendricks who's obviously proven here,
Speaker 1: and you know, we trust those guys to come in
Speaker 1: and be able to be productive and get the job done.
Speaker 1: So obviously, yeah, UM, but you know I have I
Speaker 1: have no problem. You know, I respect UM coach Schwartz
Speaker 1: and his decision. I respect Tolt being in there. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's giving me a bunch of tips since he's been here,
Speaker 1: you know, and he's he's a guy who understands just
Speaker 1: about every situation the game, you know, So he's a
Speaker 1: good guy to have out there as well. What kind
Speaker 1: of tips you said? Some tips from told there were
Speaker 1: kind of things as he should playing little nuances in
Speaker 1: the game, UM, little nuances in this defense. This defense
Speaker 1: is obviously new, terminology is new. UM. And he's played
Speaker 1: against a lot of these a lot of these teams before,
Speaker 1: you know, and a lot of these these offenses, and
Speaker 1: UM has just about seeing any way you can attack
Speaker 1: this defense. So UM, you know, I think just having
Speaker 1: his presence, having his ability, and and UM you've got
Speaker 1: no one on over here. Um having his presence and
Speaker 1: his uh, his mental you know, his wisdom, his ability
Speaker 1: to recall different scenarios from um, you know, different games
Speaker 1: in the past. So having him around has been a
Speaker 1: big help. Gonesome, I'm different. Now here's you guy. No
Speaker 1: one real
