1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,080 Speaker 1: Dannie, How do you feel like things went with Freddie 2 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: Bullen players this week? I thought they went, uh went good. 3 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: I think uh communication was good today and um you know, 4 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: I know it was a collaborative effort with all the 5 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: coaches on offense and um, you know, we worked together 6 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: throughout the week and kind of put the put the 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: plan together. So everything went well. What was the biggest 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,959 Speaker 1: challenge on such a short week to have you guys 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: get together? It was it the communication or was it 10 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: everyone getting on the same page? Um, you know, I 11 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: thought overall the communication was was pretty good. I think 12 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: it was just getting a feel for um, you know, 13 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: their defense and what we liked against it. I think 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: just kind of the planning process and going through the week, 15 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: going through practice, kind of narrowing down the game plan, 16 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: um you know, and just kind of that process of 17 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 1: of uh, you know, figuring out what you're gonna call 18 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: on the game. I think was was good and pretty smooth. 19 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: But I'd say that was kind of the thing we 20 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,959 Speaker 1: adjusted to, you know well this week offense all back 21 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: after the fumble late in the game, any first ration 22 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: you guys couldn't close it out there? And what was 23 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: the play on third down back. UM. Yeah, I mean 24 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: obviously you want to be able to close those situations 25 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: out and and um, you know we we got to 26 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: do better in that situation. UM to do that. So 27 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: we'll look at it and and uh, you know, and 28 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: and look to improve on on that going forward. I think, um, 29 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: you know, the play there was just to to move 30 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: the pocket. Um. You know, in that situation you don't 31 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: want to take or you don't want to throw an 32 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: in completion. UM, so you know, try to stay in 33 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: bound capable. Yeah, how much did it help if the 34 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 1: defense was playing the lights out? I think that was huge, 35 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, I think helps. Uh you know an understatement. 36 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: They played, Uh, they played great all day and and 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: uh came up big for us. Freddy was the one 38 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: in your ear right, he was Yeah. How odd was 39 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: it wearing a wristband? Um, one of them? Yeah the 40 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: first time. Um, you know, I've done it. But UM, 41 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: I thought it went well. You know, something we practiced 42 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: throughout the week and and uh, you know got used 43 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: to you know, over the course of over the course 44 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: of the week. So I went well, and and I 45 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: thought the communication was good. Do you actually find yourself 46 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: you know, you need to ree referring to it often. Um, well, 47 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: the way we were calling it, the way we were 48 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: calling it in. Uh yeah, we used it a good 49 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: a bit. He has need to God that system we 50 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: board with, call in, look at it and that's the play. Uh, 51 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Yeah, I think you know, we would 52 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: uh work ball today. There's no issues with it, so 53 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: we'll keep keep working through it. With a lot of 54 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: talk this week about getting the ball to the playmakers. Um, 55 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: your only touchdown was scored by a guy who had 56 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: no NFL receptions and probably not would have been in 57 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: that group of playmakers at the start of the week. 58 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: What do you see on that play and give you 59 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: the confidence to throw with the Uh yeah, that's a 60 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: play we've you know, repped a lot in practice and 61 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: and uh you know, Mark did a great job stepping 62 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: in and making a play there. And I think, um, 63 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, certain situations, the ball on the one yard line. 64 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's kind of those those type of plays, um, 65 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: that you prepare for and count on. I thought, guys 66 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: you know from that other group or you know, stepped 67 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: up and made plays throughout the day and and you know, 68 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: Kenny came came big on that uh drive in the 69 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, and a couple of other guys stepped up 70 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: and made play. So we'll keep working on and keep 71 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: working on, um you know, getting those guys the ball. 72 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: After the touchdown dance, I think you came to the 73 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: sidelines and had a moment with Freddie just kind of 74 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: celebrating that that moment. Was that something? Uh yeah. I 75 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: think we're just kind of uh talking through the drive 76 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: and obviously what happened on the play there, and um, 77 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, talking about what we were gonna do going forward. 78 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: So um, you know that's kind of the process. And 79 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: I thought the communication was good with with all the 80 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: coaches on the sideline there. Did Andrew Thomas telling you 81 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: that he was open on any place today? Uh? Uh no, 82 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: I think they were doubling him. You know, they had 83 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: safety over the top of Drew there. Uh but uh yeah, no, 84 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: it was it was good. Good to execute that play 85 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: and a big play from Maerica. Isn't challenging this week 86 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 1: to respond well to such a drastic change. Um, you know, 87 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: I think, um, we did a good job kind of 88 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 1: as a group and and um, you know, all the 89 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: all the coaches kind of together, uh, coming up with 90 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: the plan, um you know, and and and understanding you 91 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: know what exactly we're gonna do going into this game, 92 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: and um you know, I thought from a player's standpoint, um, 93 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: you know, we handled it well, that communication and getting 94 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: on the same page, getting everyone together, and then uh, 95 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: from a coaching standpoint, I thought they did a good job. 96 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,679 Speaker 1: Um you know, they did a good job coming together 97 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: with that plan and and uh you know, getting it 98 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: to us from a schematic Um, I think there were 99 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: a couple of different things here and there. I think, 100 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: you know, the verbiage of of what we're doing, and um, 101 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of it was was stuff we 102 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: practiced a lot and carried so um you know, a 103 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: couple of wrinkles here and there, Um as we planned it, 104 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: and um, you know, we'll continue to work and continue 105 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: to uh you know, work through that stuff going for it. 106 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: Tough tough week for you, um you know, emotionally with 107 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: with Jason who admitted it. Is there anything that he 108 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: said or anyone said that helped you get through it? 109 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: And what what is your takeaway from just experiencing this 110 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: weekend coming out of it with a win? Um you know, 111 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing this week was was focusing on, 112 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, what we were doing in that moment and 113 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: controlling kind of our our response and and preparing you know, 114 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: each day, focusing on that day to make sure we 115 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: were prepared, um, you know for that. And so that 116 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: was kind of my focus, is responding and controlling the moment. Controlling, Uh, 117 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: you know what I was doing, what we were doing 118 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: as a team at that particular time, and you know, 119 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: that was gonna give us the best chance to be successful. 120 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: So I thought we did that as a group. The thing, 121 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: the thing that didn't change was in the red zone, 122 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: you guys, or even day today inside of the thirty, 123 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: not just in seven and twenty. Keep having a set 124 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: up for veeld goals and why do you think that 125 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: the offense stalls in there? Uh, we just gotta make plays. 126 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: The same thing I've you know, said before when we've 127 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: gotten those questions, I think, you know, we gotta make 128 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: we gotta make plays, and uh comes down to players 129 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: in those situations. Uh, you know, we gotta give guys 130 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: chances and and we'll look to do that.
