69
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 5: got here, you know, with that communication and you know,

70
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 5: I know that like as a rookie sometimes it's not

71
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 5: always the case, but you know, to have those.

72
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 3: Conversations and those heart to hearts, you know, it's something

73
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: that I definitely respect.

74
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 1: You see a difference in the way you're being handled

75
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: post concussion and is it do you feel restricted in

76
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 1: any way? There was a post that you know, it

77
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: was your account life that kind of stated that point.

78
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

79
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 3: I mean I just I have, you know, all the

80
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 3: confidence in this coaching staff and you know, and and

81
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: and their ability to you know, you know, put me

82
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: out there and put me in good situations. You know,

83
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 3: there's there's definitely things that you know, I need to

84
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 3: improve on myself. So you know, I definitely take accountability,

85
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 3: you know, when it comes to mistakes here and there.

86
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: But you know, I think that offensively, you know, for

87
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 3: the most part this year, like we've done, you know,

88
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 3: some really good things.

89
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 2: So you know, I think for us.

90
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 3: Just having communication and being on the same page with

91
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: things is huge and then going out there and executing

92
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 3: at a high level.

93
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,119
Speaker 5: Ye how much good?

94
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,360

96
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's huge, you know, just a milestone in his career.

97
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 3: And you know, I think that he you know, told

98
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 3: me that you know, there's a statistic of of something

99
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 3: you know, in his size, you know, nobody's ever done before,

100
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 3: so you know, really looking forward to going out there

101
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 3: competing with him. He's a great player and has done

102
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: you know, amazing and and uh has been a guy

103
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 3: who you know, I love playing with just you know,

104
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 3: his ability to compete you know, each and every play,

105
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 3: and you know does such a great job of leading

106
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 3: and working hard and you know making place. So you know,

107
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 3: definitely gonna you know, do my part to help him.

108
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 4: Actually with with with Mike Kafka, I mean, obviously the

109
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 4: early part was was the relationship with him? Was it

110
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 4: as an OC? What's it been like in your eyes

111
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 4: as a head coach? Obviously your first year players, you

112
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 4: don't have a lot to compare to, but you know,

113
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 4: you know, as it has it been different with him

114
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 4: as a head coach with you personally between the two

115
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 4: of you, guys or remain fairly the same.

116
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 2: I mean, nothing to like nothing has really changed too much.

117
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 3: You know for him, he has you know, more of

118
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 3: a responsibility for you know, all three phases of the game.

119
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 3: So from like a time standpoint, you know, you definitely

120
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 3: you know lean on you know the other coaches, so

121
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: you know, from a conversation standpoint, you know there's maybe

122
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 3: been just like a little bit of a difference, but

123
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 3: he's still priority is is uh, you know, the quarterback

124
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 3: and the offense.

125
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: So we still have great conversations and you know, I

126
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 2: love playing.

127
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 4: With him, and obviously you want to win a game.

128
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 4: Everybody who that locker want to win a game for

129
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 4: your for yourselves. Uh, he's has not won a game

130
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 4: as the interim coach yet. Is there an element in

131
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 4: there you think amongst you guys that wants to get

132
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 4: him that first win?

133
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just you know, we're sickle who's in. So

134
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 3: you know we definitely are you know, just wanting to

135
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: get that failing back and you know it's hard to

136
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 3: you know, go week to week and have these close

137
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 3: games where you know you put in a ton of

138
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 3: hard work and uh, you know, things just haven't you know,

139
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 3: really paid off for us this year.

140
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 2: So you definitely want to play hard for him and

141
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 2: just

142
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 3: As a locker room from a morale standpoint, like it'll

143
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 3: be huge for us to, you know, these last two

144
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 3: weeks to give everything we can to to try to

145
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 3: go get a one
