1
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 1: Welcome into the game plan with the head coach, dan Quinn,

2
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: Logan Pauls and I'm your host Brian Cope Jr. And

3
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: we are here in the Big Bear AI Command Censor Studio.

4
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: Coaches start things off. It's no no secret that we've

5
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 1: been banged up with injuries. How are you getting guys

6
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: through that, especially the guys that have never really dealt

7
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: with this level adversity at.

8
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 2: This point in the season. Yeah, for sure, that's a

9
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 2: that's a big deal.

10
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 3: And uh, on the field, you missed some of the continuity,

11
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 3: you know, the reps together and that. Then off the field,

12
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,480
Speaker 3: you're just trying to make sure like uh, mindset, attitude,

13
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 3: had to play play style that we're that we've got

14
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: to nail that and uh as we're heading there for

15
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 3: good stretch of November Football Good the NFC Showdown, Like

16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 3: we've got to make.

17
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: Sure that part, Bruh, that's at the top of the list.

18
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 3: The attitude, the play style, the physicality like that has

19
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 3: to show up no matter where who's in how to

20
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 3: do it.

21
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: But the continuity, that's the part.

22
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 3: If you have to trim them things down to make

23
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 3: sure you can really execute, that's really what you have to.

24
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 2: Go do coach.

25
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 4: We're in Atlanta used to do like a developmental days

26
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 4: for the practice squad guys. Is that still part of

27
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 4: the curriculum to kind of make sure you're helping those

28
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 4: guys maybe don't get all the reps gouts right.

29
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 3: And so that takes place on Wednesday and Thursdays, and

30
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 3: it pays off because you don't know when that moment's

31
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 3: gonna come on the practice squad and you pray that

32
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 3: these injuries don't happen. You want the person on the

33
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 3: practice squad going up because we can't deny this guy anymore.

34
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 3: Like he is kicking ass in practice and find his way.

35
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 3: But we also know in the game the injuries happen,

36
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: and you don't know when your number is going to

37
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 3: be called.

38
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 2: But you get to that spot.

39
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 3: Man, You got to train, man, you got to show

40
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 3: you're ready, and you do that in practice and then

41
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: when the moment comes, Okay, Ryan.

42
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: He's ready. We can trust him.

43
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: We can put him in. He's gonna you know, this

44
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: is the role we play him in. And now you

45
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 3: can set the course and have to do every play.

46
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: But these are the things that we know he can

47
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: nail every.

48
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: Time and somebody that you've seen that we've learned that

49
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: we can trust as a guy, Marcus Mariota, who will

50
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: be starting in place of Jade and Daniels. How beneficial

51
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: is that to have a guy that you know you

52
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: can plug in and not really lose a step because

53
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: he is so aware of how this offense works.

54
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, right from the end of last season when he

55
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 3: talked about free agency, like, you know, where was the

56
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 3: top Marcus? And he brings a lot on the field,

57
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 3: this opportunity to go play brings things off the field.

58
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: But he has command, he's got knowledge, he's got the

59
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 3: experience to go. He's a hell of a competitor. So yeah,

60
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 3: if tough moments like that happen, he's the type of

61
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 3: guy you want to lean into and say, Okay, now

62
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 3: go do it. And he is more than equipped and

63
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 3: ready to get down.

64
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 4: And you guys have done such a good job building

65
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 4: like a really diverse kind of ecosystem for the quarterback.

66
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 4: How does Josh Johnson maybe fit in that and supporting

67
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: Marcus and his time as a starter.

68
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's seen so many things and that's

69
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: what's a good thing. Like, it's honestly like one of

70
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 3: the best parts about.

71
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: Him, how much you see everything right, And so as.

72
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 3: A coach you can go what what are you seeing?

73
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 3: You know, what is your lens look on this? And

74
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 3: now to have support for Marcus end game, what are

75
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 3: you seeing? And as the quarterback, what a good feeling

76
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: that is knowing one of my guys is looking watching

77
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 3: and seeing it from the lens of the helmet.

78
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: And that's a big deal. And so yeah, it's really valuable.

79
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: And coach you look at the choice defense, aggressive downhill

80
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: and we know this game is important for everybody, but

81
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: how much more important is it for our offensive line

82
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: to step up against a defense like this.

83
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a big deal and it's one of the

84
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 3: best parts of our offense. And so the offensive line

85
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 3: being able to impose their will the run game, the

86
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 3: play passes, those have to mix, but those finishing the blocks,

87
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: second level clamping onto somebody, kickout blocks, running through the contact.

88
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: Not to it, and that allows us to go finish.

89
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 3: So that's what we're calling on, you know, from our

90
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 3: offensive line this week.

91
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 2: For sure. Once that gets gone bright as you know,

92
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: then some of the play passes to go. If you're

93
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 2: going to be that aggressive.

94
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 3: You got to be both ways aggressive on offense, running

95
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: it play passing, back and forth, back and forth.

96
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 4: And everyone thinks offensive line is like running the football,

97
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 4: but I think of them as protections, right, Like, you know,

98
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 4: one of the ways to help receivers get open is

99
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 4: protect let's make sure we get this targeted. How important

100
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 4: is that process this week and kind of building that

101
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 4: continuity with that group.

102
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so with Sam being back now for a

103
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 3: few games, that's a big deal. It really starts with

104
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 3: the center, quarterback, the running backs because they set so

105
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 3: much of it logan. So they meet, you know, in

106
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: the evenings to go through what's this look?

107
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 2: What would we call here?

108
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 3: So think of the centers and the quarterbacks and the

109
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 3: running backs. Those guys have to be on the same page.

110
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 3: Now we know who's hot where we want to take

111
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 3: the slide to. So it's a really big piece of

112
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 3: playing good offense and culture.

113
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: When you watch the film on the Choice defense, they

114
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: send a lot of man coverage.

115
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 2: How can our offense exploit that?

116
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you play man, then there's opportunities, you know

117
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 3: for playmakers to go make some plays to go do that.

118
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 3: And so it's not all downfield. Sometimes you think we'll

119
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 3: play man and man like throw the bomb.

120
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 2: Well, that's part of it.

121
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why I said, But there's also a lot

122
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 3: of things that make play and man difficult, and oftentimes

123
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 3: those are crossing routes and things to you know, disrupt

124
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 3: how that would look. And so having the balance between

125
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 3: man zone.

126
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 2: Sometimes you come to.

127
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 3: The line with two different plays, one against man, one

128
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: against zone, and when you can get into that kind

129
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: of rhythm, then you can really put on the best

130
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 3: play for that moment.

131
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: And that's what we'll dig into.

132
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 4: And I think you school you said like the two

133
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 4: play thing, because like you know, you're watching the Minnesota

134
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 4: tape and you know J. J. McCarthy's up check into

135
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 4: his screen and like Marcus has got the ability to

136
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 4: do that. So I'm sure it gives you a ton

137
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 4: of flexibility in the offense.

138
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure it does. And you know, whether that's

139
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 3: a screen that goes to a big one. There was

140
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 3: a shot to Terry and the Kansas City game. That's

141
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 3: it was a zero blitz to say, Okay, the play

142
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 3: that we had isn't as effective against this.

143
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 2: What's the next best option? How to go through that?

144
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 3: And so having those kind of checks and as coaches,

145
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 3: you call those answers, you know, where answers to solve

146
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 3: problems for the players. And if you can provide those

147
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 3: and see the look, now you can allow play to

148
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 3: play more quickly.

149
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 2: This is the look. This is what we're gonna go do.

150
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 2: You have to practice it.

151
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 3: And so for the team, having all the practices this

152
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: week live looks different looks.

153
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: That's a big deal. The coach.

154
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: We started a show talking about the losses on this

155
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: team due to injury, and you look at our defense,

156
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: Marshaun Lattimore. That leaves a big void. How do you

157
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: feel that voiding makeup for his absence?

158
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're bummed.

159
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: And uh you know Marshan like it's he's such a

160
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 3: good competitor in him and Luke. You know, these are

161
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 3: two like hardcore competitive guys. Man.

162
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 2: They love to compete.

163
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: It just shows them their tape and the way they

164
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: want to strain and fight for it. We're fortunate Jonathan

165
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 3: Jones being back off ir just you know a few

166
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 3: weeks now, lots of experience both outside and inside, and

167
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 3: so those are the moments that you know John is

168
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 3: here to be able to deliver and why he's here

169
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 3: and we're certain that he'll do that, but it it's

170
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 3: definitely a big loss.

171
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 2: Same with Luke and these guys.

172
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 3: Some get injured and it's for a shorter period and

173
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 3: all right, they're gonna get back. They're gonna get back

174
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 3: when it's for the season ending. Man, your heart goes

175
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 3: out to them, knowing how much they sacrifice, how much

176
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 3: they put into it, and we know that's part of it,

177
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 3: but it still sucks, and uh so for the ballplayer

178
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 3: for the team, but uh mostly as a player, you know,

179
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 3: like this is their space and their time and they

180
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 3: love to compete and so when you don't get to,

181
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 3: man that that leaves a void and it's hard.

182
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 4: And so for marshaw On specifically, is it Dot it's

183
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 4: just one to one replacement. I'm sure it's like an

184
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 4: aggregat of people, you know, kind of mixing in where

185
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 4: they get in. Like, is that how you're gonna handle

186
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 4: it or is it he's going to take all those reps.

187
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 3: No, it'll be some of mixing around as we'll go.

188
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 3: We're not going to give all the game plan away here.

189
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 2: On the game plan.

190
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you're right though that we're still balancing that sure,

191
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 3: and that may take you know, more than one game

192
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 3: to find that rhythm of what's the best place to go.

193
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 3: And as a team collectively, we've got to make sure

194
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: identity right all the way through. And uh, we've been

195
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: off and we need to capture it and we need

196
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 3: to capture it now.

197
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: Early in the week on Command Center, Logan and Santana

198
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: talked about all of these offensive playmakers.

199
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 2: That they have for Detroit.

200
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: How do you slow an offense like this down that

201
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: can hit you in so many different ways?

202
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 3: Well, I think there's a lot of speed, you know,

203
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 3: first off, you know, and say that part, you know,

204
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 3: how do you you know negate being on top certain

205
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 3: routes and the great equalizers, the inside pressure and so

206
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 3: those are sometimes the game within the game. You know,

207
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 3: it's the kin law and pains on the inside of

208
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 3: that pocket to move it. And so sometimes pass rush

209
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 3: isn't about the sack. Can I get pressure, Can I

210
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 3: get up in the quarterback space? Can I make them

211
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 3: disrupt and not have the same timing. So that's a

212
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 3: big piece of it, to make sure timing gets disrupted

213
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 3: disguises of coverage. Now I play action pass when the

214
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 3: quarterback looks one way and comes back it looks.

215
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 2: Differently, and we'll have to get the ball out.

216
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: Ron.

217
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 2: That's a big beast for us.

218
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 4: I'm glad you run up the pressure element too, because

219
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 4: they're a little bit banged up on the offensive line.

220
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 4: Like how is how important is it that those guys

221
00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 4: kind of come with their best effort again to insulate

222
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 4: that group in the back yit?

223
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and all every game there's you know, some matchups

224
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 3: within It's okay, amen, this is why this is.

225
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 2: This is you and ready for that challenge. How to

226
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: how to go take it?

227
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 3: You want players right now to play like their backs

228
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 3: they are against the wall, think like it, but not

229
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 3: overreact to plays and try to make things that aren't there.

230
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 3: And so that takes a lot of discipline loading to

231
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: stay in it, do my thing, don't try like we

232
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: need to go make this play over here and I

233
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 3: need to do this job here. And so the more

234
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 3: we can do that is collectively when in those matchups

235
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 3: when it comes, whether it was a wide receiver against

236
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 3: a man, a man that we were talking about earlier,

237
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 3: you know the inside of you know, the the offensive

238
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 3: and defensive line where those matchups are that's what makes

239
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 3: the game awesome, you know, all these little different matchups

240
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 3: and how do you go and every single week it's.

241
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 2: Different and coaching closing. We've talked about it all week.

242
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: That Detroit wants to if they get back right after

243
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: us beating them in the Division.

244
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 2: A round, this is a new season, though.

245
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: Is there anything you can take away from that win,

246
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: even though it was in the playoffs, even though it

247
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 1: was last year, Is anything you could take away that

248
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: you're using in this week's game plan for tonight's game.

249
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 3: I'd say, all the hype for them to go against us,

250
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 3: all of our focus is on us, you know, and

251
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 3: how do we improve, And so that's the only thing

252
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 3: that's on our minds. Like battling, competing, you know, that's

253
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 3: all part of it. But in between the white lines

254
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 3: about that execution and all the emotion pre you know,

255
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 3: not going to come into how we're going to do

256
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 3: this matchup. And so we've got to play like we're

257
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 3: capable of at our best. They're an excellent team, But

258
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 3: last year's game it doesn't have nothing to do with

259
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 3: this year's game. It's about right now and who wants

260
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 3: to get down the most.

261
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: Always locked in on them now, Coach, we appreciate it.

262
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you in a little bit, but it's

263
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: time for you and Logan get into the film stud

264
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: all what okay, command is family? Before we hear more

Speaker 1: page right now so you could check out the film

268
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: room between Logan Paulson and head coach Dan Quinn.

269
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 2: Now more from head coach Stanclift. Coach has been a

270
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: fun show.

271
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 1: But then closing before tonight's game, we want to ask

272
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: you what the message has been to these guys. We

273
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 1: understand the gravity of this game, we understand how tough

274
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: a team like Detroit is. We understand all the noise

275
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: going around. What's been your message to these guys that

276
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: keep them lockdown?

277
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I told the team after practice the external noise

278
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 3: that doesn't fix anything internal and what internal is for us,

279
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 3: it's the meetings, most important part of our week, the practice.

280
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 2: That's where we get each other better. Brian.

281
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: So like, there's a number of things we need to

282
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 3: do to get our football aligned exactly like we want to.

283
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 2: And if you're just watching from the top down to.

284
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 3: See us man get these things fixed, get that part

285
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 3: looking like it's supposed to look. That's why we have

286
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 3: a strong culture to lean in and practice hard against

287
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 3: one another. And so that was the message. It was

288
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 3: really about our football getting in the ligne like we

289
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 3: want to. But it all comes from inside a practice

290
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 3: in our meetings. Like external noise that doesn't solve anything

291
00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: that we want to get done.

292
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: Excited to see our guys bounce back tonight. Thank you

293
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: for your time, Commander Spending. This has been the game

294
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: plan with head coach dan Quinn. Logan Paulson, I'm your host,

295
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,319
Speaker 1: Brian Cooper Junior, and we cannot wait to see y'all

296
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: tonight at Northwest Stadium when we take on the Troy line.

297
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: The game Plan with Dan Quinn, presented by Salisburg University,

298
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: was filmed at the Big Bear AI Command Center studio
