Speaker 1: Well last year. I mean, yeah, he's been an efficient quarterback,
Speaker 1: especially last year, late last year, and their offense is rolling.
Speaker 1: Um does a good job of getting the ball out
Speaker 1: of his hands. They got wide open concepts where he
Speaker 1: can he can just be efficient and get the ball
Speaker 1: um and out of his hands. And I think that's
Speaker 1: the the biggest thing that most people have trouble with.
Speaker 1: You sit back in his own they'll just dinking dunk you,
Speaker 1: you know, down the field and they can take shots
Speaker 1: with Jackson. They got a pro bo caliber receiver and
Speaker 1: Jordan Reed, so he's got weapons. He's got he's got
Speaker 1: the scheme, and he got a really good running game
Speaker 1: as well. I mean he's faster than than you know,
Speaker 1: nine percent of the guys he's gonna he's gonna play against. So, uh,
Speaker 1: he gives you a little bit of trouble and you
Speaker 1: can cover them, you know, throughout the entire game. But
Speaker 1: all it takes is one catch to really uh be devastating.
Speaker 1: So you got to make sure you stay on top
Speaker 1: of him, that you know where he is in every formation. Um,
Speaker 1: but you know, he's he's he's the player he is
Speaker 1: because he has that ability to run by you even
Speaker 1: though when even when you know he's there. You guys
Speaker 1: looked at that first half from Detroit once you had
Speaker 1: the benefit of a couple of days and then some film,
Speaker 1: uh anything pop out of you that that was going on.
Speaker 1: I mean the small stuff, nothing that we prepared for
Speaker 1: us a few penalties, UM or a lot of penalties
Speaker 1: actually um got got out leverage on some runs. Just
Speaker 1: guys need to set the edge or hold the edge
Speaker 1: a little bit, UM and in some places they earned.
Speaker 1: So it was nothing really earth shattering that we saw.
Speaker 1: It was all stuff that we prepared for, just didn't
Speaker 1: get it done. Don't talk about the resiliency of this team,
Speaker 1: and this isn't last year's team that you guys have
Speaker 1: that ability to bounce back and not let one loss
Speaker 1: just carry it over. What do you see in the
Speaker 1: lock team that makes these guys so much different as
Speaker 1: you were here last year? Honestly, um All, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think this team we understand where we're going and
Speaker 1: we understand that everything that happens is just the process.
Speaker 1: So this past week and although we obviously want to
Speaker 1: win that game, UM, and we didn't put ourselves in
Speaker 1: a position to win, and we fought back. We were
Speaker 1: proud of what we did, but you know, we didn't
Speaker 1: get the job done. But it's on to the next week.
Speaker 1: It doesn't change our mind about who we are, um
Speaker 1: of what we're trying to accomplish, and we're looking forward
Speaker 1: to the next step. Two games an though you'd be
Speaker 1: the team that everybody called the Super Bowl competent, went
Speaker 1: pretty straight dominated, then you lose to a team that
Speaker 1: I think I lost three straight. Does that make I
Speaker 1: know what you guys believe? But do you look at
Speaker 1: this game, then it is more important than a fifth
Speaker 1: game of the season in terms of of confirming what
Speaker 1: we don't need to confirm to ourselves who we are.
Speaker 1: I think we knew we step on the practice so
Speaker 1: every day and we understand in it. The only thing
Speaker 1: that makes this game very important is the next game,
Speaker 1: and it's in the divisional game. M Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's the NFL. Every week, you got to show up
Speaker 1: and do what you gotta do to win. M Like
Speaker 1: I said, we put ourselves in position to win that
Speaker 1: game and just didn't get it done. So each week
Speaker 1: takes on a life of his own. You know, regardless
Speaker 1: of who you're playing, you got to be the best
Speaker 1: team on that field. That Sunday divisional game is a
Speaker 1: more wait until because it's your first one or pass
Speaker 1: of people who you're close right now in the standards,
Speaker 1: I mean, every divisional game is important. When you talk
Speaker 1: about what you want to do at the end of
Speaker 1: the year. Um, you know we talk about beginning to
Speaker 1: the playoffs. An easy way to do the easiest way
Speaker 1: to do it is to win your division. So divisional
Speaker 1: games are probably your most important games of the year.
Speaker 1: And so this is our first one and looking forward
Speaker 1: to getting the competition going. As outsiders, we look at
Speaker 1: the stretch as four road games in five weeks. I
Speaker 1: know you guys are big on one game at the time,
Speaker 1: it is there or any you know, sense of the
Speaker 1: big picture that this is a really rough kind of
Speaker 1: just travel at scheduling and all that. No, I don't
Speaker 1: think we look at it like a rough week. I
Speaker 1: think we understand that this is I mean we haven't
Speaker 1: talked about it much. We want to talk about you know,
Speaker 1: taking it one week at a time. But when you
Speaker 1: look at the next month, um, the next four games,
Speaker 1: we've got three games on the road, Um, I think
Speaker 1: what three of them are divisional games. Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: you know, that's this is the chunk of the season
Speaker 1: right here we talk about positioning. UM, so if anything,
Speaker 1: we're looking forward to the opportunity the next month. We
Speaker 1: got some really good teams. Um, we got a bunch
Speaker 1: of divisional teams. Were on the road. Um. Where you
Speaker 1: steal some things on the road and then it puts
Speaker 1: you in a better position later when you come back home.
Speaker 1: And so the opportunity for the next month is is
Speaker 1: is there? And we understand where we are in the
Speaker 1: season three or one. Right now, we're feeling feeling good
Speaker 1: about where we're at. Um. We got an opportunity to
Speaker 1: attack this next quarter of the season. Appreciate a brown
