1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: All right, since Trent Brown hadn't played I guess a

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: ton of left tackle in the NFL career and even

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 1: going back to college, is there a degree of uncertainty

4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: about how we would hold up in that position even

5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 1: heading into the regular season. Well, we took you know, um,

6
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: you know, we had a lot of opportunity to work

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: with with Trent and all of our tackles really, um

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: and we and we kind of um you know as

9
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: as normal procedure here, we don't just you know, put

10
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: a guy at one spot and never move them around

11
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: at all. So you know, we worked you know, most

12
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 1: of our linemen work on both the right and the

13
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 1: left side as we go through the year, just to

14
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: get experienced there because we know how challenging our year

15
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: can be in terms of um, you know, injuries and

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 1: the durability of their overall group sometimes gets you know challenged,

17
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: and then you have to have other guys play roles.

18
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: So um, you know, whatever was the best fit for

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: our team is what we always want to do. Um.

20
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: It ended up being, you know, playing out this way.

21
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: Isaiah's injury, you know, certainly, uh, you know that we

22
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: were all disappointed when that happened. Um, but you know,

23
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: Trent has done a good job and any role that

24
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: we've asked him to play, UH, and he's settled in

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: nicely over there on the left side and embraced every, um,

26
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: you know, everything we've asked him to do since he's

27
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: been here. So UM, I wouldn't say we were worried

28
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 1: about anything. We just always go into everything with an

29
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: open mind and try to get the guys to play

30
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: the physicians that um that they can have the most

31
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: success doing, and whatever's best for the team, that's what

32
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: we try to get done. Great, Thanks Josh. The next

33
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: question would be Michael. Thanks Stacy, morning Josh. How are

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: you good, Mike? How you doing? I'm well. I wanted

35
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: to ask you about Cordarrel Patterson and what are some

36
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: of the personality traits and characteristics he's brought to the

37
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: team that's made him fun to work with year. Uh.

38
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: CP has a great attitude. UM, you know, it's he's

39
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: a he's a fun guy to be around. In general terms, UM,

40
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: I think he likes playing football. UM, enjoys, you know,

41
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 1: preparing each week, and and uh embraces any any role

42
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: we give him, which we've obviously given him a number

43
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: of different things to uh, to do to help our team,

44
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: and he's embraced every one of them. Um. You know,

45
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: he's a he's a guy who works hard, he's smart,

46
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,679
Speaker 1: he's got a positive attitude and UM, I think you know, uh,

47
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: there's not a guy in our building that doesn't like CP.

48
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: So UM and just a good guy to be around,

49
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: a good positive energy and uh and it really um

50
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: has done a good job of being an unselfish teammate.

51
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: And we've asked this guy to do everything from run

52
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: the ball in the goal line to you know, line

53
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: up in backfield and block people to uh, you know,

54
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: catch passes and return kicks and you know, you guys

55
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: know all the things he's done. So UM, you know

56
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: he's he's been a versatile contributor, always with a great

57
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,239
Speaker 1: outlook on the week, and it wants to help in

58
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: any way that he can, which is uh, you know,

59
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,399
Speaker 1: the sign of an unselfish guy that you know really

60
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: wants to do what's best of the team. And if

61
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: I could follow up, Josh, is that something you knew

62
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: pretty much at the beginning of the season or in

63
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: training camp? Where is his ability to contribute in different

64
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: ways grown as the season's gone on. I think you

65
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: you know you you obviously knew that he's got a

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: skill set that allows him to be used in a

67
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: bunch of different ways, you know, and he has throughout

68
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: the course of his career. Um, it's just a matter

69
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: of you know, having enough time and exposure to some

70
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: of those things to feel comfortable one putting him in

71
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: those positions and to giving him an opportunity to to

72
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: feel comfortable and have success doing them. So um, you know,

73
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: we've we've never been a we've never been shy about

74
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: trying people in different roles if we think it could

75
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: help our team in any capacity. And CP, you know,

76
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: he's he does a lot of different things for our

77
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: team and you know, um, some of which getting noticed,

78
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: some of which probably don't get as much of attention.

79
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: You know, he blocked and blocked in a running game

80
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: very well the other day, I did a lot of

81
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: good things that allowed us to create some space in

82
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: a run game too. So um, yeah, he's multi faceted

83
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: and and he's had a great attitude about all the

84
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: things we've asked him to do. Thank you, Josh, especially me.

85
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: Bob Socie followed by No Princio I Thanks Stacy, Good morning, Josh,

86
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: Good morning bub. I want to ask you about the

87
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: effectiveness of play action and how important is it and

88
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: how much of effort do you guys make to have

89
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: the same movements of players, whether it's a pulling guard

90
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: or even the same formation, uh, that you will run

91
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: out of the times and then be able to pass

92
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: out of out of that that same look the same

93
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: kind of movements from you know, people other than the

94
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: guys are involved in the pass and the catch and

95
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: how important that is and in causing some confusion for

96
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: defenders when they try to read their keys. Well, I

97
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: think anytime that you could make one thing look like

98
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: something else, UM, that creates a uh, that creates a

99
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: conflict UM, you know, on the defensive side of the ball. So, UM,

100
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: those are all positives. You know, if you can make

101
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: a run look like a pass or vice versa, UM,

102
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: that's certainly something that's productive and can be useful for you. UM.

103
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: At the same time, I would say, you know, UM,

104
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot of different things throughout the course of

105
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: the game that you could use to try to, you know,

106
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: make something look a little different. And you know, you

107
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: have sixty some plays a game you know, you're you're

108
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: going to be able to hide certain things and other

109
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 1: times you're just gonna, you know, line up and count

110
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 1: on your execution being better than than what the defense

111
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 1: might be able to play on their side. So the

112
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: most important thing I've always I've always thought this way.

113
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: The most important thing is that our guys know what

114
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: to do and they can execute their assignments fast and

115
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: aggressive and play physical and fundamentally sound. And as long

116
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: as they're doing that, I think we feel like we

117
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: give ourselves a good chance to have some success on

118
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: that play if we can add something to it, protect it,

119
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: marry it with another player two or three in the

120
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: game plan so that the defense has to look at

121
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 1: a lot of different things the same way. You know,

122
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: then that's great too. So I think you've got to

123
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: you always look to try to help yourselves as best

124
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: she can by not giving away whatever it is you're

125
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: trying to run, And if that means we can marry

126
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: some things together, then certainly we're gonna try to do that. Great.

127
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Thanks, right, next question being Nord Prince,

128
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: you're already followed by you, Evan Mozar Josh. I believe

129
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: it was David Andrews esterday and who said something about

130
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: you guys, along with all the positives from Sunday talking

131
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: about meeting to do better in goal line situations. And

132
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: I was just wondering if there's anything specifically that led

133
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,679
Speaker 1: to those conversations in your guys and meetings and anything

134
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: that you think would lead to improvement in that area. Yeah, well,

135
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: I mean there's a First of all, there's a lot

136
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: of things we talk about trying to improve from the

137
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: Jet game that you know, that could be one of them. Certainly,

138
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: we had some six we you know, we think we

139
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: converted three short yardage after tunities and and we failed

140
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: on one and then we you know, we we scored

141
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: on the goal line and had a couple of times

142
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: where we were close but didn't quite get it in. So, um,

143
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: you know, every time we play a game, there's many

144
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: things that we talk about trying to do better. That's

145
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: why you coach the film and uh, that's why the

146
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: players are eager, uh you know, to come in and

147
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: see how they can improve and and help, you know,

148
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: help the team by improving you know, their technique or

149
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: fundamentals on a specific play. But um, you know, shortyards

150
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: and goal line. It's there's you know, there's not a

151
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 1: lot of mystery in some of those things. I mean,

152
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: you know you got to leverage. Uh, you know, you

153
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: want to play the lower man usually wins in our game,

154
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: and um, try to get some movement a line of

155
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: scrimmage and and uh, look, those are tough plays. Um,

156
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 1: you know there's a reason why they're not easy, and

157
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 1: you want to try to You always want to try

158
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: to be successful every chance you have, um, you know,

159
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: on the goal line or in the short yard of

160
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 1: situations because it usually means the difference between scoring points

161
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: or keeping possession of the ball. So, um, a lot

162
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: of little things go into that. We coached, um, you know,

163
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: everything we could hard yesterday like we always do on

164
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: the day after the game. And uh, hopefully we'll continue

165
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: to try to make some progress in each area of

166
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: our of our offense. Gotcha, thanks jam Uh huh. Next

167
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: question is Evan Bizarre, followed by Phil Perry. Hey, Josh,

168
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: kind of along those same lines, and red zone efficiency

169
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: has dropped a little bit of the last four games.

170
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: Just wanted to get your read on maybe some of

171
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: the reasons why that has happened. Yeah, we you know,

172
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's that area of the field is

173
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: always about you know, UM, you know, execution and toughness

174
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: and UM and uh, you know we've we've had a

175
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: few opportunities and and and just came up a little

176
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: short on those. UM And certainly we we stressed that

177
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: each week, and you know that's going to be a

178
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 1: huge part of this this week's game against the Vikings. UM.

179
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: This is as good a red area defense as there

180
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 1: is in the league. And you know, they're they're very

181
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: well schooled at what they do. Or they're physical and

182
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: fast and there's not a lot of margin for error.

183
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: So UM, you know, our execution, we're just gonna have

184
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: to work hard this week and know what we want

185
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: to get done and then try to go out there

186
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: and execute it against a really good defense. UM on

187
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: Sunday in those situations because you know we're down there,

188
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: you know, you certainly you know, at this time of

189
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 1: the year, you have to make the most of every

190
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 1: opportunity you have and score touchdowns. And when we come

191
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: away with field goals, UM, you know, we we we

192
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: you feel like it's an empty trip sometimes, so we uh,

193
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: we've got to do a good job of, UM, you know,

194
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: really understanding what the game plan is going out there

195
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: and having a great week of practice and then being

196
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: able to execute when we have our chances on Sunday night. Thanks.

197
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: It looks like the last question, thanks staff, Josh. You

198
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: you sort of just hit on the Vikings effectiveness defensively

199
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: in the red zone. It looks like according to some

200
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: of the numbers, they've been really good against the run,

201
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: uh this year, And I just wanted to ask you

202
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: what what has made them so effective in that regard?

203
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: And after the performance you guys had running the ball, UM,

204
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: how long do you try to stick with something like

205
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: that to you know, get yourselves going, but at the

206
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: same time knowing, okay, we don't want to you know,

207
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: slam our heads up against the wall here. Yeah this uh,

208
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: look there. Coach Zimmer does a tremendous job. He always has.

209
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: We've competed against him a number of times in different places. UM,

210
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: and his defenses UM have always been this way. UM.

211
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: I mean they rank highly in every statistical category, deservedly so. UM.

212
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: They have really good players at all three levels of

213
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: the defense. They're really well coached, they're extremely sound, UM,

214
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: and they challenge. They really challenge you on third down, um,

215
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: and in the red zone. UM, some schematically and just

216
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: some based on their personnel and their rush and the

217
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: way they cover and how they mix up their calls. UM.

218
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: But um, they they you know, they have a really

219
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: good they have a great front. Let's just you know,

220
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: they have a great front. They have linebackers that are

221
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: very athletic. The team speed in general is tremendous. Um.

222
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: You're not going to outrun this group. Um. And and

223
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: their scheme compliments their players very well. Um. You know,

224
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: they get excellent safety play. They don't give up a

225
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: lot of big plays in the run or the pass games.

226
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: So you're gonna have to drive the football. Um, you're

227
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to convert some third downs during the course

228
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: of the drive. And this is the best third down

229
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: team in all the football easily. UM. So UM, there's

230
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: a lot to um. There's a lot for us to

231
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: wrap our minds around. And and we really got to

232
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: have a great week of preparation. This is uh um

233
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 1: as big a challenge as we're going to have all

234
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: years so far, and we're excited to start our preparation

235
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: and to answer your second part of your question. I

236
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: think you look, we always you know, the reason we

237
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: game plan a certain way and in practice and prepare

238
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: heart is to try to be successful and eat each

239
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: area of our game plan. And you know, you just

240
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, you always want to be balanced and maintain

241
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: your balance if you can. It's certainly a better way

242
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: to play football if you can do that and not

243
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: tell the defense what you're trying to do on each play.

244
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: But you know, the game has to the flow of

245
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: the game will to determine many times, you know whether

246
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: or not you you know, throw it more than you

247
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: run it, run it more than you throw it, or

248
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: somewhere in the middle. And you know our intent is

249
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: to do everything we're trying to do in the game. Well,

250
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: certainly that is not going to happen each week. I mean,

251
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: the other teams that we play are are really good,

252
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 1: and this week is is you know, we've got an

253
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 1: exceptional group on the side of the ball. So, um,

254
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to have a great week of preparation

255
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 1: and practice and and be ready to play our best

256
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 1: best game on Sunday and um and go out there

257
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: and really compete hard against a tremendous unit. Great. Thanks

258
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: Josh m hmm. Thank you, Josh, thank you,
