21
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: good place I can come help it. Well, let's story,

22
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: James Betcher. You had the best year of your career

23
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: when he was your defensive coordinator twelve and a half

24
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: half sacks. Why do you think you had the success

25
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: you had being under him as defensive coordinator? Of course,

26
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: coach betch is great, great play called JB calls the

27
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: right place. He aggressive and that's the type of place

28
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: I am. I'm gonn rest of always out there playing

29
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: a hundred percent, landing on the line every play, and

30
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: that's what this defense about it. And I feel like

31
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: that was able to help me out. And then on

32
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: top of that, just was able to focus up and

33
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: it was healthy and healthy enough to get out their incompete.

34
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: So they think about it, Man, if I'm able to

35
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: get out there and compete, I'm always looking at myself

36
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: to get out there and make plays. What is it

37
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: about your skill set you think that lends itself to

38
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: success as in that drusher in the National Football League? Really, man,

39
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: you gotta have a work after your mindset. Man, I

40
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: know I'm putting the work off the field, and uh

41
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: so whenever I step on the field and I'm confident

42
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: I didn't put in all the work I need to

43
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: put in. And after that, man, just believing in yourself period,

44
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: just believing in your moves and setting guys up and

45
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 1: being smart about it. And just the NFL so guys

46
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 1: are gonna use technique and all that. You just gotta

47
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: be smart too. And then at the end of the day,

48
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,679
