1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: That was practice. Yeah, it's good. I think just a yeah, 2 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: a chance to get back out there and kind of 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: re establish what we're. 4 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 2: Trying to be his football team. I think it's one 5 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 2: of those games that you know, you just look back 6 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 2: and be like, man, we hurt ourselves, and I think 7 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 2: it's one of those things just get back to, you know, 8 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 2: focus on us and you know, new opponent and knowing 9 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 2: that we can got to know how to not you know, 10 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 2: lose the game, you know, on ourselves before we go win. 11 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 3: You're talking at passing our top ten peshown just Churris. 12 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: Do do you play attention on the status to do 13 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: that that stuff matter? Do? I think winning matters for me. 14 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 2: I think that's the main goal with why you play, 15 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: you know, why I play this this position, why I 16 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: play the sport. Yeah, I think, you know, quarterbacks and 17 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: the ultimate kind of status is win. So I think 18 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: that's the biggest thing that I focus on. And if 19 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 2: that's throwing you know, ten touchdowns in a game or 20 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: throwing one pass the game is trying to win. 21 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: Do you like throwing up against Christine? 22 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: That's Alice in practice? 23 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, Gonzo. I mean it's since the day I got here. 24 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: You know, it's always good to have somebody and and 25 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: him and CD on the other side of the ball 26 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: that that make it challenging, that make it challenging to 27 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: make throws that don't make it easy. And I think 28 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: that's you know, things where you developed with guys and 29 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: on my side of the ball, a different kind of 30 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 2: kind of level like above the next you know, when 31 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: he's making throws difficult, he's making this route difficult, you know, 32 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 2: back shoulders on on go routes and little things like that. He's, uh, 33 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 2: you know, he's a great player and I'm looking forward 34 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 2: to see him and when he gets back, yeah, I 35 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 2: think you know, he's got some swag with to him. 36 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: He's always got swagged, so. 37 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: I always, you know, you know, try to find time 38 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: to ask him, Hey, what kind of do it up 39 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 2: my swag because I don't have much out there? But 40 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 2: uh no, Gon's always shot every time. You know, he's 41 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: smooth and you'll see him play smooth. He's patient, he's 42 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 2: a he's one of the best in the game. 43 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: So to play against your hometown team, it's different. 44 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: Playing up here, you're going back to Charlotte would have 45 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 2: been different, but you know, going against the team that 46 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: grew up watching, you know, grew up hering for, and 47 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: a lot of great memories in that state them. 48 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: Back in Making America. 49 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 2: So uh yeah, it's a little different, but at the 50 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: same time, it's still you know, just is another week 51 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: a week in the NFL and you know, the same 52 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: players that I grew up you know, playing for, besides 53 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: the longest snappers still there. 54 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 3: So is it an all encouraging that the mistakes from 55 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: last week's turnovers? 56 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: Do you view those as relatively easy fixes? And are 57 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: you encouraged by that. 58 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 3: Hey, we can just hold onto the ball, you know. 59 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: You've got something. Yeah, like we said, not beating ourselves, 60 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: that's the that's the big thing, and that's the shoot. 61 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 2: It's you know, it's turnovers. You turnos in this league 62 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 2: are such a big deal. It's one of those things 63 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 2: that we you know, we can clean up. I think 64 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 2: you hold on the football and and me hold it 65 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: on the pocket, and you know, the running backs is 66 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 2: something that I do think is fixable. I think it's 67 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 2: something that you try to overemphasize and usually when we 68 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: overemphasize things, you you fix it. And uh, you know, 69 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: I think something throughout the week is just trying to 70 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 2: do the extra little things that you'll protect it and 71 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 2: and me getting you in the pocket. 72 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: You're insuring two hands on it. And just know when 73 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: the plays over, when you look at this team, whether 74 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: it's a practice or during the games, do you think 75 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: about how much better this team can be or I 76 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: think it should be who you will? I wouldn't say that. 77 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 2: I just you know, trying to push the guys to 78 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: get to that level. You know, I know what we 79 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: can do, and you still feel like we haven't you know, 80 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: played our best football, and that's what's promising you know, 81 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: you know ahead and I think, uh, you know, once 82 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 2: we do we kind of talk about, you know, stringing 83 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: some players together in a practice or stringing to drive together. 84 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 2: You see glimpses of it. But that's the challenging part 85 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: of this league and that's what's the fun part about it. 86 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: Getting to that level and hoping to get that level 87 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 2: when when the games you know matter it real matter, 88 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: and trying to get a push to the postseason or 89 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: things like that.

So just trying to you know, started players, 109 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: you know, and just as nuts as and and just 110 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: every week, you know, trying to play quarterback.

But you gotta be careful with him. 128 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: And on the other side, you number two is a 129 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 2: good player as well. 130 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: Fond. 131 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: It's three catches on Sunday resulted in first. 132 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: I believe you talked about what a great team he is. 133 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: Where's your level of trust with him, especially situationally on 134 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: the video.

He's making plays, 141 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: so he's in positions on on key downs to make 142 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 2: plays and got full trust on him, and he's just 143 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: keep showing it every week. 144 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: And and he's trying to give Hi the ball more. 145 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: I told him that. 146 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: You know today, when. 147 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 3: We talk about knowing when the play is over, are 148 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 3: you is that just strictly field thing, because obviously you 149 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 3: have the ability to create the extent.
