1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: Tell everyone we've been talking about for the last month.

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: You seem to have your legs going, you seem to

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: have that run game going. And today it was hard

4
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,479
Speaker 1: for seventy plus yards. But I thought it was an

5
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: effective run game, even though the fasting game wasn't really

6
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: working so well.

7
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think we had a good plan.

8
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: The online coach, you know, tight ends coach, they came together,

9
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 2: put it, put together a great plan for the run game,

10
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 2: and we went out there and executed.

11
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: How much did you know about the run game being

12
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: the heavy part of the game plan going into the week.

13
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you knew they were gonna blitz a lot, right,

14
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: but you couldn't have anticipated the wind was going to

15
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: be as cold and as effective as it was. So

16
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: what was the thought going in with the run game?

17
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we knew that we was gonna run

18
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 2: the ball. I think as as running backs we want,

19
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: these are the type of game that we want just

20
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 2: because of the They're relying on us to make a

21
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 2: play and they're relying on us in the run game

22
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 2: to get the offense going. And that's you know, we

23
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 2: carry our pride of that type of pride within our

24
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: room just to be the motor of the offense and

25
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 2: continue to get first out the first down and tried

26
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: to skip third nowns.

27
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: I think today you.

28
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 2: Know within the run game and we did that all right.

29
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: Now. You knew coming in you're gonna run it a lot,

30
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: but you also know that when you do try to

31
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: throw it, they're gonna be applying a lot of heat.

32
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: You knew that your left guard, your starting left guard,

33
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,279
Speaker 1: Runion was out before the game, and yet you guys

34
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: as running backs have to helping that pass protection. How

35
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: well do you think you did with that, because even

36
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: though you didn't throw it much, you also didn't gain a.

37
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 2: Lot of you arch, Yeah, I think I think we did.

38
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 2: We did find protection at Obviously you can always clean

39
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: the stuff up from our room.

40
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: I had a hold in affenity.

41
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 2: But for the most part, I think you know, when

42
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: our number was called, we heard of our our end

43
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 2: of the bargain. But I think overall, as the offense,

44
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 2: we just have to clean up the little details be

45
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: more efficient when you know the type of blitzes present

46
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: themselves in the game.

47
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: What was the most difficult part about the last offensive

48
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: drive that you guys had when you were trying to

49
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: go down for the tig field goal and then wound

50
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: up turning it over run down to real.

51
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: Weally noting difficult about it. To be honest, I think

52
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 2: we had the right play calls in the play calusing

53
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: me personally, I got to get more out of some

54
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 2: of the runs that we had within that last drive.

55
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean I think when when the ball

56
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 2: comes your way and you know, you have the opportunity

57
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: to see the moment, Yeah, sees the moment, and I

58
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: think that overall we as a as an officer unit,

59
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 2: we have to do better at that general.

60
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: Thanks for time, Yeah, thank you. Yeah.

61
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 3: I think fifteen straight runs to start to start the game,

62
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 3: did you was that wanting to balance out the blitz

63
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 3: of the Viking?

64
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 2: It's just the wind?

65
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 3: Was that?

66
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 1: What do you think that was?

67
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 2: I mean, when you start the game off with thirty

68
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 2: yard bomb and another fifteen yard bomb, you you want

69
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: to run the ball as much as you can. I

70
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: think we had a good plan coming out, you know,

71
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: to hammer the ball and just really just give in

72
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 2: to our running backs and allow us to work. And

73
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: as I said, I think that that was working well

74
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: throughout the first half. I think that we just kind

75
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 2: of slowed down, you know, as the game went on,

76
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 2: they wanted to have time. They made some adjustments. Like

77
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 2: I said, they had some great coaching tips on theyself.

78
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 3: How hard is it to go against that defense? I mean,

79
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 3: obviously you have to pick up blitzes as a as

80
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 3: a running back. I mean how hard is it when

81
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 3: they're coming from all different angles and whatnot.

82
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 2: I mean I wouldn't even I wouldn't say it's hard.

83
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: I think we just got to rely on unique. Maybe yeah,

84
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 2: it's unique, it's unique as definitely unique. But at the

85
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 2: same time, like we have rules in place throughout the week,

86
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 2: you know, we go out and EXE, that's really it.

87
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: Like I wouldn't I wouldn't say it's hard at all.

88
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 2: I think that we'd have to rely all the things

89
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 2: that you know we was talking throughout the week. You know,

90
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 2: on Sunday got to execute.

91
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 3: What was the mindset in the huddle there the last

92
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 3: time you guys said the ball they go ahead sixteen thirteen,

93
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: you guys get out midfield. What was set in the

94
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 3: huddle there or what was.

95
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: Like the energy make a play, make a play was

96
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: the same energy that we had the whole game. It

97
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 2: wasn't nothing different, and go out there making play. Somebody

98
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: make a play, and then you know we back in it.

99
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: You know, I think that we didn't. We didn't waiver

100
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: as an offense. Like whatever happened, that happened, And we

101
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: just have to go out there each and ever snap

102
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: thinking the exact same way as we did in the

103
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: first quarter, and that with that first snap and the

104
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 2: last quarter of the last time, like you don't it

105
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 2: doesn't matter, you know what the situation is.

106
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 3: And then last for you, I mean, it seems like

107
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 3: you individually and now focus on the individual. It seems

108
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 3: like you're finishing the season pretty strong. How important is

109
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 3: that to you?

110
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it's important to me, man, But I mean

111
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 2: the most poortant thing is winning. It don't matter how

112
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 2: many you know, the yards I get. It doesn't matter

113
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: how many touchdowns I get. Man, everything's feels better when

114
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 2: you win. And if I get, you know, one touchdown,

115
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 2: but I only have twenty yards, but we win, that's

116
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 2: a really great feeling. Like last week, I had two

117
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 2: toes but we lost, Like yes, cool to say I

118
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 2: had two touchdowns, but we lost the game. So it

119
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 2: really don't matter in the grand scheme of things. So

120
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 2: I think once we start winning, everything else will obviously

121
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: feel better when we come back, and the.

122
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 3: Love you feel like that's gonna start out. I mean

123
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 3: it's ten ten last year, nine nine in a row

124
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 3: this year.

125
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: What's the confident about a Eventually you will start winning.

126
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you got well, if you watch the game,

127
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 2: man like we're close. We're close. We just got to

128
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 2: start finishing out the game.

129
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 3: That's really it.
