1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: Daniel. Um, my question for you is as far as 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: you're running is concerned. You're running extremely well, You're picking 3 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: up a lot of yardage. Do you try to temper 4 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: that with worrying a little bit about your durability going 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,240 Speaker 1: forward for the rest of the season or do you 6 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: just continue to pick up yardage and use that as 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: a vehicle. Um yeah, I mean I think, um, you know, 8 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: those are opportunities that you kind of feel throughout the 9 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: game and try to take advantage of. I think, uh, 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: you know, I've got to be smart and get down 11 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: when I can and and uh you know, avoid avoid 12 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: big hits. But um you know, I think I've tried 13 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 1: to do that. I think I can do that better 14 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: at times, But um yeah, I think that's an opportunity 15 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: that I'll continue to look for. Thank you, Tom Rock. Daniel. 16 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: I was wondering, you know, as you as you work 17 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: with different receivers and different types of receivers, how much 18 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: of it how much do you treat them as as 19 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: a quarterback And do you have to be a little 20 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: bit of a armchair psychologist with some of these guys 21 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: and and sort of work them through different phases of 22 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: how they're being used in the game plan and things 23 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: like that. UM. Yeah, I mean I don't really think 24 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,839 Speaker 1: that's my job. I think I've got great relationships with guys, 25 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: and um, you know, I'll continue to be as good 26 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: a teammate as they can and and uh communicate with 27 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: them and get on the same page and and uh, 28 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: you know, try to help everybody be their best and 29 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: bring you know, what they do best to each game plan. 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: And UM, so that's you know, my focus. I think 31 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: you know, you know, I don't think I can get 32 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: outside of that. But I've got great relationships with those guys. 33 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: I think they've been locked in and ready to go. 34 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: So we'll continue to do that. And uh, as we 35 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: see opportunities for each one of them to make plays, 36 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: will try to get them the ball and and uh 37 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: get them get them out there and making plays. Thank you, 38 00:01:55,400 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: Paul Schwartz, Thank Daniel. Hey Paul, how's it going good? Thanks? Um, Um, 39 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: given what's going on the first three weeks, Um, you've 40 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: won two of the games. Um, you know, not having 41 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: a dynamic passing attack, but you know, leaning on the 42 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: run more so, do you think this might be what 43 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,399 Speaker 1: this offense and what this team evolves to this year 44 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: where maybe you have to play some low scoring games, 45 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: have to run the ball, have to muck it up 46 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: a little bit, play good defense. And does that take 47 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: a lot of toll mentally on a quarterback. What do 48 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: you say? Look, as long as we win, I'm handing it. 49 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of an ugly game. It's okay, 50 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: as long as we win. Um, well, I mean I 51 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: think we're uh, we're still improving. I mean we're working 52 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: to get better at all, you know, all aspects of 53 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: our offense, of our attack, and in the past games 54 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: certainly part of that. So um, you know, I think 55 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: we we have were capable of producing a lot more 56 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: in the passing game and and uh you know, using 57 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: that to our advantage. But we've also got s Kwon 58 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: Barkley and and uh you know, a good, good running attack, 59 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: so well will you do that as well? But um, 60 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: you know, we'll continue to prove in all all aspects 61 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: of our offense. Thank you. And one more with say 62 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: quand um, um, is there still some uncharted uncharted territory 63 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 1: with him? You know, obviously everyone knows he can he 64 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: can catch the ball, but is there still more than 65 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: maybe you guys are waiting to do with him, to 66 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: exploit some matchups if you get the chance in the 67 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: pocket to do that. Uh. Yeah, I mean I think 68 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: his his skill set, uh you know, gives us those 69 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: opportunities to get him in space and and uh you know, 70 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: allow him to make plays, make guys miss and um 71 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: you know, he's shown you know, a lot ability to 72 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: do that. So we'll continue to work through it and 73 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: and uh use them, you know in those situations as 74 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: best as we can. Thanks, we have time for three more, Bob, Hey, Daniel, Uh, 75 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: how do you feel you've played through through three games? Uh? 76 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: And you know, consort of ratings and stuff and those 77 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: kinds of sts have never been real friendly to you. 78 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: But you feel like what you do with your legs 79 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: uh is kind of an underrated thing when it comes 80 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: to those kinds of things. Uh. I don't I don't know. 81 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,119 Speaker 1: I mean I think, um, you know, I think there's 82 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: some things that uh you know, I wish I could 83 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: have done better. I think there's some things have done 84 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: well um overall, But I'll continue to you know, look 85 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: at that and see how I can improve, um, you know, 86 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: keep uh you know, trying to put this team, put 87 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: this offense in a chance to in position to win 88 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: the game. Uh, you know, down the stretch. So, um, 89 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: you know, I think I've played all right, but certainly 90 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: things to work to improve on. Well, what do you 91 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: feel like you need to improve? Almost when you when 92 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: you look at the first three games as old, Um, 93 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think we can uh find ways to 94 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: execute better, finish off tribes in the end zone. Um, 95 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: I think we can be better at the beginning of 96 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: games and making sure we're getting off to a faster start. 97 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: So um, I think those are you know, a couple 98 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: of couple of areas we're looking to improve. Thanks Bryan, 99 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: don Leeby, Hey Daniel, I've got two for you. Uh. 100 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 1: Evan Neil, how how did what you say to him? 101 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: How did he bounce back? And these last you know, 102 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: if you've been around him today from a really tough outing, 103 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: and does it remind you at all of seeing what 104 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: Andrew Thomas went through and maybe getting some hope from 105 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: where Andrew Thomas is right now, what he went through 106 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: as a rookie, I mean, and where he is right now. 107 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I mean we all have a lot of 108 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: faith in Evan and and uh you know, we know 109 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: he's a he's a great player, is going to be 110 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: a even better player, So you know he uh went 111 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: up against a tough front. Those are you know, they've 112 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: got some good pass rushers on the other side, and 113 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: it's on all of us to help help that out 114 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: to uh, you know, get chips and jams when we can. 115 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: And then you know me for stepping up in the 116 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: pocket and getting the ball out of my hands quickly. 117 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: So we got a lot of trust and faith in 118 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: Evan and and uh he knows that. And then my 119 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: second ones, I guess it's really a two parter. Is 120 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: have you talked to Chef and then as I looked 121 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: to who could replace yep, yeah, you a little mystified 122 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: Daniel by Darius Layton's I don't know, reduced role. I 123 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: mean there was a time where we asked you he 124 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: was your number one receiver. He led the team in 125 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: receiving to your first two years he was you seem 126 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 1: to have great chemistry. So have you talked to Chep 127 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: and are you expecting a little more from Slayton here? Uh? Yeah, 128 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: have spoken of Chep and obviously heartbroken for him. Uh 129 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: tough to see him go down after he's fought through 130 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 1: so much to get back, and uh, yeah, feel feel 131 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: for him, uh immensely, but uh I think, yeah, Darius 132 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: is is a guy. I have a lot of trust 133 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: and a lot of faith then, and um, I know 134 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: he's working hard. So um you know, as far as 135 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: the game plan going forward, uh, we'll see how it 136 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: works out. But I have a lot of faith and 137 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: confidence in him. Last one for Daniel Pat Leonard, Hey, Daniel, 138 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: two quick ones. Um, you said after the game, you 139 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: know you might be a little bit sore tomorrow just 140 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: a few days later, do you feel any more sore 141 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: or differently coming off a game where you took a 142 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: lot of hits. I feel good. I feel good, really 143 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: had a chance to rest up and recover a little bit. 144 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: So I'm I'm feeling good and ready to get after 145 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: this week at practice and get back out there on Sunday. 146 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: And and secondly, when you have a game like Monday 147 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: where you face so much pressure and you guys don't 148 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: win the game, but it seemed, at least from my 149 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: vantage point, like you did everything you could do. You 150 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: think you should be evaluated on your play in the game, 151 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: separate from the result of the game or his wins 152 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: and losses. Ultimately does that ultimately define maybe the evaluation 153 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: of you as a quarterback? Do you think, um, yeah, 154 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: I mean I think, uh, it's not really my concern 155 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: how I'm evaluated, um by you know, external people or 156 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: or you know, I'm obviously looking for feedback and criticism 157 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: from the coaches and from teammates the ways I can improve. 158 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: But as far as an evaluation, you know, I think 159 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: that's uh dependent on if we win or lose. I 160 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: think that's how uh this team is evaluated, and and 161 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: uh we're thinking about it collectively as a group.
