Um, 3 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: it's just one of the things that work hard for 4 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: all off season, all throughout the season. Put yourself in position, 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: and you know it's gonna be fun. So excuse they 6 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: have the day that's about big.

How do you kind of corral 9 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: that mutually stay they don't kind of breaking out. Yeah, 10 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: you definitely gotta respect those guys as far as you know, 11 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 1: just because you know they lost cream Hunt, you know 12 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: early in the season. But you know they got two 13 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: guys spencerware like you said and Williams said, you know 14 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,959 Speaker 1: can do just about the same amount of damage. So uh, 15 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: just playing physical, you know, using our fundamentals, our technique 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: as far as a defensive front, just understand, you got 17 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: to get some knocked back, got a pressing, a line 18 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, and you know, get off and make plays. 19 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: First time you guys facing countrible homes.

But you know, he's 27 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: obviously a better better player now than he was when 28 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 1: you faced him earlier. So uh, you know, we definitely 29 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: gotta be be aware and be prepared for you know, 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: him to play even better game and be more productive. 31 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: So you gotta you know, prepare well and mest intensite. 32 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: So said about you guys play with a lot of 33 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who then extend and plays. Is my homes the 34 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: guy that can got a little a little bit further 35 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: than others looking to throw his arm strength and give 36 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: him an opportunity to make the players don't feel another 37 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: guys ca. Yeah, he's definitely a guy that you know, 38 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: able to extend plays and you know he's not as 39 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: much as he's looking to run, but he's you know, 40 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: looking to throw the ball down the field to you 41 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: know a lot of fast, skilled guys. So you know, 42 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: just him being able to buy some time or lose 43 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: some pressure and you know, get some guys that you 44 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: know can run very well and get open and you know, 45 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: like you said, his arm strength and uh, you know, 46 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: he don't out or he don't overthrow many many of 47 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: those guys. So you know, just the accuracy and the 48 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: arm strength and he's able to you know, do on 49 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: the run and do as her lout pressures. You know, 50 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: it's definitely, uh, you know, great quarterback. So do you 51 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: believe in Matt him? Coming off could be your best 52 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: game of the season as a team? Do you feel 53 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: better this Tuesday than you get a week ago coming 54 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: out such a good performance? Obviously, you know, as you 55 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: go through the season, you build confidence, you be you know, 56 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: chemistry and you understand how to play the game and 57 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: what you need to do what you don't need to do. 58 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: But just because you did it last week doesn't mean 59 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: that it's gonna happen this week. You got to put 60 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: in the time, the preparation, the focused, the intensity all 61 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: into practice and you know, uh, you got to put 62 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: it all into a brand of week. So still in 63 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,679 Speaker 1: the first half in that Kansas City game a very 64 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: earlier this year, but the down I think just playing 65 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: physical understanding that you know, they got a lot of 66 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: a lot of fast guys a lot of misdirections, and 67 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: you know they come from a lot of different angles. 68 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: But you know, I think just playing physical, playing with 69 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: fundamentals as far as the defensive front, like I said, knocking, 70 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: knocking guys back and and just understanding that you know 71 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: that they're gonna make some plays. But you know, we 72 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: gotta tackle well. And you know, if you you know, 73 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: minimize the space with these guys, with all these skilled 74 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: guys and fast guys, then you know you can you know, 75 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: kind of get everybody to the ball and you know, 76 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: get get some cuts of suits. So different than Damian 77 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: Williams three, Um, you know obviously, uh you know they're 78 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: they're different, but you know they're similar in a way 79 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: as far as you know, they can both get downhill, 80 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: they can both both run low behind their pass and 81 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: you know, definitely very physical. So uh, you know Damian Williams, 82 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: he's you know, able to get to the edge, able 83 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: to you know, cut the ball down down uh into 84 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: the defense and you know lower's pass. So uh, you know, 85 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: it's it's pretty It's a lot of similarities, but you 86 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: know there's different people, but a lot of similarities.
