1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,719
Speaker 1: Over the last maybe two out of the last three games,

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: Trevor hasn't really gotten touched very much. What do you

3
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: attribute that to and how would you say the offensive

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: lines chemistry has grown over the last you know, seven

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: games of the season.

6
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's a work in progress for sure,

7
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: and I think every offensive line is going to say

8
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 2: that throughout the league as the season progresses, and every

9
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: team is right like you know, I think when we're

10
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: all on the same page, we're all seeing the same thing,

11
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: it helps.

12
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 3: And then.

13
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: Besides that, it's also schematics help a ton to getting

14
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 2: the ball out of his hands or helping out with

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: play actions. So there's a lot of factors that play

16
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: into it that I think are giving us an opportunity

17
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 2: to keep Trevor at least somewhat under dura, like not

18
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 2: as much under dress.

19
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: And what have you seen from from Walker little? I

20
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: know you haven't played with him a ton in terms

21
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: of the game, Eames, but just what have you seen

22
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: from him since you got here to now? And then

23
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: maybe maybe talk about his performance just this past week.

24
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I really like the way Walker attacks the week

25
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: as a professional, and I think when we found out

26
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 2: that Cam was going down that series of you know,

27
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: Walker had to come in just as poise and the

28
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: way he carried himself was pretty impressive, and I thought

29
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 2: that resonated with the rest of the guys when you

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 2: see a guy come in that you know has confidence

31
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 2: in himself and as well as a game plan and

32
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 2: working with each other, like that's one last thing you.

33
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 3: Have to worry about.

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 2: And he's a smart football player, he's tough, and I

35
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: thought he played very, very well and helped us kind

36
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: of progress as the game went on.

37
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 4: Appreciate it, John Shipley, followed by JP.

38
00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 3: Bitch, thanks for doing this.

39
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 4: What kind of feeling does it give, you know, an

40
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 4: offense offensive line general, when quarterback is kind of in

41
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 4: one of those spands that Trevor's in around now where

42
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 4: it just seems like every play call, you know, there's

43
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 4: kind of something going on. Just what kind of confidence

44
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 4: does that get the offense?

45
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: Well, I think more than anything, what helps an offense

46
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 2: gain confidence or helps the team in general is.

47
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 3: Being able to.

48
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 2: Kind of keep time with possession in your corner right

49
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: like it's it's matriculate in the ball down the field.

50
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 2: Of course, you want big shots and those are huge

51
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: you want to score points, however, you once you can,

52
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 2: John Rightley, so to kind of get in that rhythm,

53
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: stay ahead of the chains, you know as the verbiage

54
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: you use, right And then yeah, I think Trevor's playing

55
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 2: pretty inspired football right now. And it's a quarterback driven league, right,

56
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: And whether he's hand the ball off, making checks or

57
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: put it down the field, like, if you have a

58
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: guy who's as poised and confident as Trevor can be

59
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: and in all the right ways, it helps everyone along, dude.

60
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: And then eighteen I think it was straight runs on

61
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 4: Sunday even it seemed like when New England knew and

62
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 4: run was coming, you guys are still finding some success.

63
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 3: What does that?

64
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,839
Speaker 4: Do you know? Just for an offensive line psyche when

65
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 4: the coach is more or less like we're just gonna

66
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 4: run down efforts.

67
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there's there's something too when the coaches

68
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: and the staff put the game plan in your hands, right,

69
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: And that's not something you go into the game saying

70
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: we're going to run so many runs in a row, right, Like,

71
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: I think it's attestament to them seeing how the game

72
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 2: was playing out, making game plan adjustments. And then I

73
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 2: think tank you know, he was being decisive and that's huge.

74
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: And when you're a decisive runner, and sometimes it's it's

75
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: Muggy in there, it's Munkey in there, and we're you know,

76
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: we're just as long as you put hat on a

77
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 2: hat and you have a guy like Tank or whoever

78
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 2: Dearnest or you know, Travis. Those guys make your life

79
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: a lot easier. So, uh, tam A long wind away

80
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 2: of answering your question, was it felt very good? And

81
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 2: you know not every game is going to play out

82
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: that way, but when it does, uh, you know, you

83
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: wake up a little.

84
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 3: Sore in the morning, but you're happy for it. What

85
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 3: was that the most runs you've had NFL game had

86
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 3: to be I mean, that's the remarkable amount.

87
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 5: Uh.

88
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 2: You don't realize how tired you are to get on

89
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 2: the sideline and you know people are offering you oxygen

90
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: and it was really it was a very unique experience

91
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: and we were very appreciative of its much.

92
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 3: These will be our last two JP followed by Mark excuse.

93
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 6: Hey, mittch just looking back a little bit too after

94
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 6: that Bears game and then the week coming out of

95
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 6: that at the Grove, I mean, how difficult was that

96
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 6: week for the team coming off that game. We heard

97
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 6: a lot of comments out of the locker room and

98
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 6: you know, kind of big things, big themes. But how

99
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 6: did the team come together in that week to get

100
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 6: things back on track?

101
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a that's a good question. It was tough, right, Like,

102
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 2: first of all, that game was on all fasts. Saw

103
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: three phases, not what you're looking for in a football game,

104
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 2: and we all knew it and come to that locker room.

105
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: It's very spirited and not not a detrimental way. But

106
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: you know what you saw was how much this game

107
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 2: means to guys and how much to see It was

108
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 2: all good things. You saw the passion, right, But then

109
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: it was how do we apply that to fixing mistakes

110
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: and stuff? Because we work hard as a football team.

111
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 2: I mean I've been around some football teams and this one,

112
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 2: you know, throughout the week works just as hard as anyone.

113
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 2: So it's applying that work and then making Sunday a

114
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 2: celebration of that work rather than shooting yourself in the foot.

115
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 2: So I think we you know, it's kind of a

116
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 2: weird mid season not training camp in regards to workload.

117
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: But you know, some teams go away for training camp

118
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: and you have this weird renaissance as a team in

119
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 2: regards to you're you're in tight quorders, you're forced to hang.

120
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: You know, there's no place to escape, right, So if

121
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 2: there was any time for that to happen, I think

122
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: it was the best time to do it, and it was.

123
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: It was difficult because we didn't like the results but

124
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: of the week prior. But I thought we came out

125
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 2: and just had a great week of practice, really loved

126
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 2: up on each other, and then we came out with energy.

127
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 2: I think that was the biggest thing was we found

128
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: a little bit of energy that now we have to

129
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 2: make it a snowball effect, right, like we we know

130
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: what works. We know now we just have to apply

131
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: it weekly and that's it's easier said than done.

132
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 3: So we'll have to figure that out.

133
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 5: And then one more for me. When it was ten

134
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,799
Speaker 5: to nothing in the game against the Patriots. In the past,

135
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 5: we've seen, okay, this be a problem, things kind of

136
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 5: slipped down the slope.

137
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 6: Why didn't that happen this time?

138
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was. It's a great question. You know,

139
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: you can't get ten points back all at once, So

140
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 2: we just focused on and this is gonna be a

141
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 2: cliche as hell, right, Like you just focused on, like

142
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: we can this play dictate. Oh that was a great play.

143
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 2: Let's let that snowball. Now we have good field position.

144
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 2: Let's end up with three points. Now we're close to

145
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: the goal line, let's end up with seven or whatnot,

146
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: Like just stuff like that. So staying ahead of the

147
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 2: chains helped. And then when we got some points on

148
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: the board and then the defense had a few big

149
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: stops and then we had that, it was just the

150
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 2: team was feeding each other. You know, there was energy

151
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 2: on the sidelines. Like it felt good. It felt like

152
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 2: a like a like a winning football team should feel

153
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: like a everyone And not to say it wasn't there before,

154
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 2: but it was just exacerbated and I thought that was

155
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 2: really cool. Last mark long.

156
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, Mitch, do you feel like this could be you guys'

157
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 7: offensive identity moving forward? Just this smash mouth you know,

158
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 7: run first play action, deep ball to Brian Thomas kind

159
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 7: of offense.

160
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's easier.

161
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 2: It's you'd like to say that after that game, But

162
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 2: every game and dictates a new game plan, right, and sometimes,

163
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 2: like I was talking about earlier, end game dictates certain

164
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 2: things right, Like it turned into staying ahead of the chains.

165
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: They're running the ball. That's just what happened, and then

166
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: taking shots. And that's a great question. I don't totally know.

167
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 3: We'll find out.

168
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: It'd be easier to tell you in January, in February

169
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 2: how this is gonna play out. But we're just trying

170
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 2: to compound the positives from last week and running the

171
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 2: ball as a positive, and you know teams are you know,

172
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 2: teams find a way to eliminate things, so we'll have

173
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 2: to be adaptable.

174
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 7: And then Doug trying to explain maybe the offensive line

175
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 7: the ability to run the ball, maybe the little cohesion there.

176
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 7: He said a connuity was a big thing. But then

177
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 7: he said, we've scaled back on the amount of run scheme.

178
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 7: Can you just maybe break that down for us, for

179
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 7: those of us who have not played offensive line for

180
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 7: ten years in this league? Like, what does that mean

181
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 7: to scale back the amount of scheme?

182
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 3: Thank you?

183
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great question. You know, you go into

184
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 2: a work week like this week and we're going to

185
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 2: have a certain amount of runs in the game plan,

186
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 2: and those runs each have a personnel package, right, Like

187
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 2: it's going to be a big personnel or will personnel,

188
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: and then what can you expect from those personnels, like

189
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 2: we expect this personnel package to bring out base defense

190
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 2: or this to bring out Nike, like just off of

191
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: ten to seas. From the defense, the Patriots are a

192
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 2: very multiple defensive front. That's what they've done for years

193
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: and they're very good at it. So for us, it

194
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 2: was for that game plan, you know, let's just try

195
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 2: to have a little bit fewer. It wasn't like a

196
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: crazy scale back, but it was a scale back and

197
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 2: then go through every single situation that might come about,

198
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 2: and so that when we get to that play call,

199
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 2: we know that we've seen and repped and throughout the

200
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 2: week as many as we can assume we're going to

201
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 2: come out like that defensive front. So it just gives

202
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,479
Speaker 2: you more of an opportunity to go through more scenarios

203
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 2: from less runs, you know what I mean. That's hard

204
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 2: to explain. Hopefully that was well house a run
