1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Gave your head. Coach was talking to me about he

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 1: described you as very steady and he said he's more

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: emotional and it works well when you guys had interplay.

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 1: I mean how does that manifest itself? He can be

5
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: more emotional. He said. You kind of take things as

6
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 1: they come a little bit. Um. Yeah, I mean I

7
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: think he's uh, that's certainly his personality and and uh,

8
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: you know, I think we've had good communication the whole time,

9
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: through through practice and then the games as well. So, Um,

10
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, that's his personality. But Um, I think the

11
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: communication has always been there and UM, yeah, I think

12
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: it's it's gone well. Do you do you like that?

13
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: I mean would you rather maybe a little more even

14
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: keel or feel like, you know, that kind of up

15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 1: and down kind of Um, yeah, I mean I think

16
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 1: it's uh, I've had coaches uh, you know, more that

17
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: way and I've had coaches uh, definitely. It's just a

18
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: personality thing. It's it's not good or bad or and

19
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,319
Speaker 1: it's just the way it is. So Um, I think

20
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: it's gone well and our communication has been right so forth.

21
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,039
Speaker 1: I think if there's any anything surprising after the first

22
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: two games, it's Richie James with ten catches. I mean

23
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: how does he become your number one's target? Um, yeah,

24
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: I mean he's played well for us. He's had a

25
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: great uh, you know, he had a great training camp and, Um,

26
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: he showed up for us, Um, you know, throughout these

27
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 1: first couple of weeks. But he's got a good feel

28
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 1: for space, he's got a good feel for getting opening

29
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: zones and and making plays after the catch. So, Um,

30
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: we've got a lot of guys who can do that.

31
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of guys who can make plays

32
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: for us. So we're trying to spend the ball around

33
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: as much as we can. Bryan, Bryan saying he has

34
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: tried coaches. He's still trying to find the perfect way

35
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: to coach you, but he said he's tried all. He's

36
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: done all different ways, including you know that he gets emotional,

37
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: but also that he's loved you up. How does he

38
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: go about loving you up, for lack of it, since

39
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: term not mine? I don't know. I mean I think

40
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: he's just uh, he's always communicating. He always wants to

41
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: uh talk and see what you're thinking, get on the

42
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: same page. Uh, you know, understand how you're reading certain things.

43
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: What you saw on a certain play in practice. And

44
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: I think over that, over time, just as the more

45
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: you communicate, the more you talk and and uh go

46
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 1: through those conversations, the more you know, the better the

47
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,679
Speaker 1: relationship uh you're building. and Uh so that's how it's been.

48
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: And Uh, you know he wants to know about things

49
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: off the field as well. So you've heard guys talk

50
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: about him, uh, you know, facetime and and and wanting

51
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: to wanting to build relationships with players. So I think

52
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: that's how that's how he doesn't the facetime. Uh Yeah, yeah,

53
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: he's please call me. And you know that's dating back

54
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: to when he first got the job. So, Um, you know,

55
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: you can tell that's something that's really important to him,

56
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: is building those relationships with guys and the well, the

57
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: team in general has not done well in these Primetime

58
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: Games since you've been here. Is there anything you could

59
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: put a finger on as to why that is, or

60
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: did you do you like that prime time field when

61
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: you're when you're in it? Uh Yeah, Um, I do.

62
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: I think. Um, I think we all do. Um, you know,

63
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: we've got to just come out and play our game.

64
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: You know, I think that's the biggest thing. Um, you know,

65
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: primetime or not. You know, we we haven't won enough games,

66
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: you know, over the last few years. So we're looking

67
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: to uh put our best foot forward and play good

68
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: football Monday night because, because of the stage you're on,

69
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: this is a chance to kind of show people, you know,

70
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: this thing is for real. I mean you're too and Oh,

71
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: but a lot of the country probably hasn't watched your

72
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: games yet. Um, yeah, I mean we're we uh, we

73
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: see every opportunity as a as a chance to Um,

74
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,839
Speaker 1: show everyone what we can do and and uh, we're

75
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: gonna try to play our best football every time we

76
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: step on the field. So, uh, Monday night game, Um,

77
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, there there's some energy, there's some excitement to it,

78
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: but Um, you know, every time we step on the

79
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: field we're trying to play as good as we can

80
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, show everyone what we can do.

81
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: He referred to you as being calm and steady, Brian Today.

82
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: Where does the calm that's come from? where? Who would

83
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: you say is most responsible? To me, it showed herself

84
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: in that game. I think when you guys were down

85
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: and you got a third down. Your had, I think,

86
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: three straight three and outs at that point and you were,

87
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: you know, unruffled. Where does that come from in you? Um,

88
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I think, uh, probably my parents,

89
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: uh you know, but I think that's an important part

90
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: of playing the position, uh, is being able to whether

91
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: the storm Uh never you know, not get too high

92
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: or too low, and kind of stay consistent with your mindset,

93
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: with your approach, and not let you know what's happened,

94
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: good or bad, effect the next place. So that's something

95
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: I've always tried to do and and something I, you know,

96
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: continue to work on. You said old season long, one

97
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: game at a time, one opponent at a time. Does

98
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 1: the stakes to increase with like the Eagles, cowboys, WASHINGTON?

99
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: Uh Yeah, I mean these divisional games are, Um, you know,

100
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: you understand kind of the rivalry and the tradition of

101
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: of these games, especially in the NFC east where, Um,

102
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: these franchises have played each other for a long time

103
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: and Um, there's a lot of, you know, historic battles

104
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 1: back and forth. So, uh, it's fun to be part

105
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: of that. Um, you know, divisional games mean a little

106
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: bit more in terms of getting to win and and

107
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: uh so we're uh you know, we're trying to do

108
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: the best we can to prepare to play playre best

109
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: ball Monday night. Kenny Golladay in the game plan this week. Yeah,

110
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: I mean I think, uh, you know, he's uh, he's

111
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: been a great player for us, Um, you know, the

112
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: past couple of years. I've got a lot of trust

113
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: in him and, Um, I know he's working hard. So, UM,

114
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: looking forward to getting out there with him. This kind

115
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: of goes back to what TOM AND TOM ask. Are

116
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 1: you at all surprised by how much depth you guys

117
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: have shown? I mean you've been tested on the defensive

118
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: side injuries. Uh, you spread the ball around a lot.

119
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: So there a lot of guys, maybe guys that, as

120
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: he said, Richie, that weren't expected. Are you surprised at all,

121
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: and and please, with how much depth you guys have shown? Yeah,

122
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say I'm surprised. I think, Um, you know,

123
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 1: I've seen from early on, you know, when this team

124
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,559
Speaker 1: came together, that we have a lot of opportunities to uh,

125
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: you know, we have a lot of playmakers, guys who

126
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 1: can do a lot of different things with the ball.

127
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 1: So I think that's the strength of of our group.

128
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: Um and UM. Yeah, so I wouldn't say I'm surprised,

129
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: but it's it's definitely nice to have, as a quarterback,

130
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: a lot of guys who can make place. It seems

131
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: like during the spring, you know, some of the guys

132
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: were talking about the coaching staff coming in and kind

133
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: of letting you make those mistakes and learn from them

134
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: during practice, and it seems like that kind of continued

135
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: into camp for you and maybe some of those other

136
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: guys like like James, for instance. How much does that

137
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: help you guys develop and, Um, kind of lead to

138
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: the successor alone that you've had right now, early in

139
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: the season? Um. Yeah, I mean that was part of

140
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: the process, I think. UH, anytime you put in a

141
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: new system and guys are all learning it together, that's

142
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: gonna be part of it. But I think the coaches, coach,

143
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: did a good job correcting things, getting everyone on the

144
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: same page and we're kind of able to grow together

145
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: through that. Does it kind of build out that report

146
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 1: between you and the coaches to kind of have that

147
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: trust where they gonna see you, guys see you make

148
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: a mistake, but they know you, they know you're gonna

149
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: learn from it almost, you know, right away or down

150
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: the line. Yeah, I mean I think uh, you know,

151
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: you never want to be a guy who repeats mistakes.

152
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: Or Uh, you know, I want to be a guy
