1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: What makes the the Detroit Lions offense so so dangerous?

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 2: Man, great play calling throughout the game, so you kind

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 2: of gotta be, you know, on t your tend to's

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,799
Speaker 2: all game kind of just being alert. Run past team

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 2: that kind of leaves wild run. So you know in

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: that in that case, you know they could dress it up.

7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,239
Speaker 2: You know their past plays kind of using their run,

8
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: especially when they kind of get going early. So it's

9
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: gonna be big for us to stop to run and

10
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 2: do it do it well.

11
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: How dynamic is that that duo they got there between

12
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: Montgomery and Gibbs.

13
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it easily win of the best in the league.

14
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: Obviously Gibs younger guy and he's real fast, obviously dynamic

15
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 2: out the backfield, and then Montgomery more of a look

16
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: like a bruiser downhill back.

17
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: So a good combination at this point in the season.

18
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: Is it is it tough to kind of manage the

19
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: emotions with with everything that's going on, the losses have

20
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: kind of stacked up. M quarterback heard, I mean it

21
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 1: almost feels like, you know, things aren't are just kind

22
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 1: of going the way you want.

23
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 4: Mm.

24
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough, I say, uh for me going into

25
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: my fourth year and having it dealt with stuff like

26
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 2: this before.

27
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 3: You just keep going.

28
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: That's that's really the biggest key, and it pays off

29
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: in the hand. So as much as hard as it

30
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: is to look around and kind of you know, smell

31
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: the g smell the flowers, as they say, right now,

32
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: it's not really that kind of te uh temperature in

33
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 2: the building. You more so just wanna keep working, just

34
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 2: deal what adversity as you need to.

35
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 5: How would you evaluate the frustration after this loss compared

36
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 5: to other losses this past weekend?

37
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know, as the team is super frustrating.

38
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 2: I think the emotion in the locker room kind of

39
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: spoke to that. But as we move forward, I think

40
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: there's always it's really always something that you could hope for,

41
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 2: especially in the NFL. Like I said, you y, they

42
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: make it so that week eight teen is is something

43
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 2: that you could play play until. So you know, for us,

44
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 2: we still have a chance to you know, get where

45
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: we wanna go. Obviously it's gonna be extremely difficult and

46
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 2: we have a long road ahead, but taking a week

47
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 2: by weekend and more importantly day by day, you know,

48
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 2: could put us in the right spot.

49
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 5: What was that emotion post game this week compared to

50
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 5: previous weeks, I.

51
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 2: Think just real uh, big disappointment I think from the team.

52
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: I think from a defensive standpoint, you know, bushing we

53
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,919
Speaker 2: even did more. I think we had a good obviously

54
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: good performance, but wishing que we can make more, more

55
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: more play and maybe I'll finished the interception. Little things

56
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: like that, you know, that kind of kind of hurt

57
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 2: going into a week coming out of a game like that.

58
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, the the same turnovers coming bunches.

59
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 6: Does it feel like after getting you know, I think

60
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 6: for the last two weeks out now the damns kind

61
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 6: of starting to break.

62
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, a little bit.

63
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: I think a lot of it is really just playing together.

64
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 6: You know.

65
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 2: Turnovers do not happen because of one player. It is

66
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 2: all eleven players on the field. It gonna happen, whether

67
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: it's disguising pass rush. So just coming together as a

68
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: defense count you do. You see the turnovers are coming.

69
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 6: You alluded to it a little bit, but just the

70
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 6: explosive places you guys are able to kind of limit those.

71
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 6: Last week coming into Doctor Doug early, they the Detroit

72
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 6: Lions are a team that you like take their shots,

73
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 6: you know, is that kind of an infasi uhu in

74
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 6: emphasis for you guys this week or is it kind

75
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 6: of just you know, play it out the way you

76
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 6: guys have been doing.

77
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna take a a lot of you know,

78
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: obviously staying on top and our our cover, our corners

79
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: covering well, uh for as a safety, just continue to

80
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 2: study to takee uh getting a good feel for you know,

81
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 2: where the quarterback wants to go, any tendencies we can

82
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 2: get and then yeah, like you said, explosive team and

83
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 2: they kind of live off of that. So you know,

84
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 2: kind of doing that uh along stopping a rung or

85
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 2: put us in a good spot.

86
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 4: Obviously, we saw them taking a lot of shots and

87
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 4: led to a lot of turnovers for Houston to be

88
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 4: able to get. You h you guys got your hands

89
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 4: on some balls last year week as well against Minnesota.

90
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 4: You know, you can't duplicate different team and everything, but

91
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 4: does that sort of kind of play out. You know,

92
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 4: they're gonna take your shots, so it's a little bit

93
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 4: more infestius on being available to get those turnovers.

94
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, so, I mean just just you know, a

95
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 2: team like Houston kind of putting out on tape is

96
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: a good indicator for us to you know, cu well,

97
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 2: what's possible? So so yeah, we we We've been watching them.

98
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 3: I guess. Uh so.

99
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 7: I mean, I mean it's a great team. Uh, great

100
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 7: coaches as well. I just feel like we have to

101
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 7: go out and it's more so about us than them.

102
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, two headed running back though back there so the

103
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 8: guys that are actually split their carriers equally this year.

104
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 8: Uh how about the skill set that they present?

105
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 3: Uh great?

106
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 7: They they both bring a lot to the game. Uh

107
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 7: like you say, they both right there with each other

108
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 7: in carries. I mean, we just gotta do what we

109
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 7: do best. It's all about us, It's not about them

110
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 7: at all.

111
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: How difficult is it to, I guess, manage the emotions

112
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: of the season right now when you the losses have

113
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: kind of stacked up.

114
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 9: You quarterback has.

115
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: Injuries, there are injuries at other spots. Kind of feels

116
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: like stuff is just not going going right.

117
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 7: Uh yeah, I mean now we're just h w to

118
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 7: a point out or what we dug ourself in the hole.

119
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 7: But if you look at our schedule, I mean it's

120
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 7: it's really not over with us. We just have to

121
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 7: We just made it a little harder on ourselves to

122
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 7: w where we have to go out and win every

123
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 7: game from here on out. And I feel like that's

124
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 7: definitely a accomplishable with the team that we have and

125
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 7: UH where we're trying to go.

126
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: So SCO study seeing guys buying even more now at

127
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,679
Speaker 1: this point in the season, and you've seen the same.

128
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 3: Thing, uh most definitely.

129
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 7: Uh, Like we always talked about every sin every year

130
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 7: I've been here late in the season, once it gets

131
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 7: to like the late November December, Uh, you have to

132
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 7: win those games and the stretches if you wanna be

133
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 7: considered in the uh playoffs or wild call whatever.

134
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 4: Kind of a high risk kig reward offense you guys

135
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 4: are playing coming up on Sunday. You know how many

136
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,679
Speaker 4: point is to take advantage of those opportunities to maybe

137
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 4: even in not just getting hairs on the ball, but

138
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 4: get your.

139
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 3: Hands on the quarterback.

140
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 6: Uh.

141
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 7: It's gonna play a major role. Like I For me,

142
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 7: I like to look at it as if we do

143
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 7: what we need to do upfront by stopping the run, UH,

144
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 7: then once we stop the run, I feel like we

145
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 7: can get out the any any quarterback, regardless.

146
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: Of who's on the offensive line.

147
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 7: Like I always say, it's it's about us more so

148
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 7: than about them.

149
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 6: Uh.

150
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 7: And if we're able to do that, then I feel

151
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 7: like we'll have a good Chane said, winning this game.

152
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 5: Have you ever stopped and thought about what would have

153
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 5: happened if you went to Detroit first?

154
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 3: Overall? Never? Huh? Never?

155
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 8: In in Lae week's game, did you feel like on

156
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 8: the penalty that you got at the end that it

157
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 8: was just a question did you feel it was just

158
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 8: your competitive desire, your knew you just knew you had

159
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 8: to get a ball, something had to happen because time

160
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 8: was running out.

161
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 7: Uh So since you asked kind of in detail, for me,

162
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 7: it was just one of those plays to where I'm

163
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 7: a guy, I m'a always play through the whistle, uh

164
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 7: until I'm not trying to be not trying to hurt

165
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 7: anybody or anything like that. But from my perspective on

166
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 7: the field, seeing what I seen him being on top

167
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 7: of another player fouryer driving him back up and me

168
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 7: not hearing the whistle on So I'm just steady punching

169
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 7: at the ball, trying to get it out and make

170
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 7: a play for my team.

171
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 10: I'm big it would a repeat performance, uh for this

172
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 10: defense be to kind of keep a high powered offensive Bay.

173
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 10: Say that again, how big would it be for this

174
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 10: defense to kind of have a repeat performance keeping your

175
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 10: in opposing offensive Bay?

176
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: Uh?

177
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 3: Major.

178
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 7: I feel like, Uh, last week out Uh, the whole

179
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 7: defense as a collective, we played pretty good. Just a

180
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 7: little few minor things here and there. But Uh, like

181
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 7: I said, if if we can carry that over from

182
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 7: the last week or so and to this week, I

183
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 7: feel like we would definitely have a great chance of

184
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 7: comp getting our goal accomplished.

185
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 3: And that's winning.

186
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 6: Uh.

187
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 7: All we have to do is just keep the team

188
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 7: from scoring, regardless of if our offense score or not.

189
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 7: We get takeaways and we score on defense, we don't

190
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 7: have to worry about losing the game.

191
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 11: So it was considered one of the best right tackles

192
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 11: in the in the in the league. Does it show

193
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 11: up on tape and do you cat how much do

194
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 11: you kind of relish that match up good versus good?

195
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 3: Oh, he's definitely a great play.

196
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 7: He's been one of those guys that's been talking about

197
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 7: a lot in the media, and you turn on the

198
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 7: film you see the work that he does.

199
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 3: Uh.

200
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 7: I mean, obviously I'm looking forward to it and uh,

201
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 7: it's gonna be a great challenge.

202
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 5: What sort of match up nightmares does he create when

203
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 5: he gets out in space like he did this past

204
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 5: Sunday where he's the lead blocker.

205
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 7: For me, I wouldn't say it's any nightmares, but uh,

206
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 7: to any guys on the back end, that's probably a

207
00:06:59,560 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 7: question for them.

208
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 8: What's more satisfying to you using your power to over

209
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 8: overtake somebody to get to the quarterback or doing what

210
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 8: you did last week?

211
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 11: Were you a knife through two defenders and just immediately

212
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 11: get to the quarterback?

213
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 9: Uh?

214
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 7: Power, It's all about taking manhood for me.

215
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: You mentioned the takeaways. The takeaways were hard to come

216
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: by early. They always say they come in bunches. Do

217
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,239
Speaker 1: you feel like, uh, last week was maybe the start

218
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: of kind of the faucet opening up a little bit

219
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: damn breaking.

220
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 9: Uh.

221
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

222
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 7: Turnovers like like we say, we always talk on getting

223
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 7: the ball off of 'em. Uh, I feel like if

224
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 7: once we get the ball off of 'em, then everything

225
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 7: is in our hands. We c I feel like we

226
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 7: can help put offense in great field position to go

227
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 7: down to score, or even once we get our hands

228
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 7: on the ball, we can go score ourselves. And that's

229
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 7: what I was saying earlier to where if we do

230
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 7: get our hands on the ball, we can go score.

231
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 7: As long as we keep the offense from scoring, now

232
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 7: we win.

233
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 12: Yeah, well, I think it's just getting repetitions in that

234
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 12: Q be one spot right. You do your best to

235
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 12: acclimate yourself throughout the work week if you're if you're

236
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 12: not in that first team by you know, and mac

237
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 12: is the ultimate profession. But there's something different to actually

238
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 12: getting those reps. So for him, I know he's got

239
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 12: a fire underneath him this week. I think we all do,

240
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 12: and uh, you know we're we're excited to get some

241
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 12: more practice with him.

242
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 8: How challenging is this Detroit defense and what looks they

243
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 8: do they present?

244
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 12: No, Well, not only is it a good scheme that

245
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 12: they run, but individually they have talent all over the defense.

246
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 12: I think especially the interior that defensive line is is

247
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 12: is a good and you know they of course they

248
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 12: got Zidarius. He's a great player. And those linebackers, whether

249
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 12: in they're in base or nickel, pose challenges of their own.

250
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 9: So yeah, it's it's a it's I mean, there's a.

251
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 12: Reason why they're eight and one if they they play

252
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 12: team football, and uh, you know, they rally around each

253
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 12: other and it'll be a great competitive atmosphere and we're

254
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 12: gonna have to that's their intensity. And understand that we're

255
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 12: going into a hostile environment.

256
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 11: Which is it the usual fire of a pregame week

257
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 11: or is it a different fire based on maybe where

258
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 11: you guys are at.

259
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 12: Well, I think it would be hard to say here.

260
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 12: You know, being two and eight doesn't light another fire

261
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 12: underneath you. And I think we're at a juncture in

262
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 12: our season where we can go one way or another

263
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 12: in regards to rallying around each other or dissipating into individuals,

264
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 12: and I think we're going to do the former, and

265
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 12: it's a really exciting thing to be.

266
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 9: A part of.

267
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 12: And you know, all we can do is come in

268
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 12: here and work. And I know that's a horse that's

269
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 12: a beat dead, but it's the truth. You know, we're professionals,

270
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 12: and you know we haven't liked what's are you know

271
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 12: what we've been able to do, And so we're just

272
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 12: gonna look at individuals like myself, how can I be better?

273
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 12: And then rally around each other, lean on each other,

274
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 12: because if you start being a recluse or kind of

275
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,199
Speaker 12: cutting yourself off from everyone else and just trying to

276
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 12: go through the motions is when this can get real

277
00:09:58,559 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 12: miserable and no one wants that to.

278
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 11: How different is this for you? I don't know that

279
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 11: you've I don't know if you had a if you

280
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 11: had an eight lost season in your.

281
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 9: I know, I'm no. But this is a you know,

282
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 9: it's part of the gig.

283
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 12: It's uh, it's part of the business. It's you know,

284
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 12: every team is uh, it's kind of goes to their

285
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 12: own challenges throughout the year. We've definitely had our own

286
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 12: and you know, we're gonna we're gonna attack the work

287
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 12: weeks no matter what the record is and uh, you know,

288
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:29,959
Speaker 12: go out swinging if that may be.

289
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 9: If that's the case, maybe in.

290
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 5: A situation like this, do you try to change things

291
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 5: up or do you just keep the same routine, the

292
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 5: same practice.

293
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 9: Well, you try to change.

294
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 12: I mean, I think you have to look at it pragmatically,

295
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 12: which is you do have a change a little bit.

296
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 12: Now we're gonna just flush everything down a toilet and

297
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 12: start over. No, but I think individually you look at

298
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 12: what maybe not you know, might not be clicking throughout

299
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 12: the week, and sometimes it's minute changes, sometimes it's big ones,

300
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 12: and uh, you know, I don't I don't think we're

301
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 12: whatever where you do. It's not hitting panic mode. It's

302
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 12: understanding that, you know, some things might have to change

303
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 12: because uh, you know, we're just not satisfied with where

304
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 12: we are, Mitch.

305
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 4: You guys, we're all very critical of the offensive performance

306
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 4: on Sunday.

307
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 3: Kind of getting back to mc jones a little bit.

308
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 4: How beneficial is to have a guy that's kind of

309
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 4: been in that role before, it has that experience in

310
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,239
Speaker 4: bouncing back from these stur performances.

311
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 12: Yeah, well, Max a pro and he's been there before,

312
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 12: and uh, you know, he's he's such a competitor. And

313
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 12: you know, the only thing that I I'm not a

314
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 12: fan of is how much he puts on a weight.

315
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 12: He puts on his shoulders. And that's the problem you have,

316
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 12: and that's a good one. So you know, we're just

317
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 12: gonna try to make his job uh as easy as possible.

318
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 12: Understand that QB position is a unique one, and uh,

319
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 12: come out and just compete, I think, compete and put

320
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 12: our best foot forward come Sunday, cause we're gonna need to.

321
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 9: We're gonna we're gonna need to. We're gonna wanna win

322
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:51,719
Speaker 9: or have a chance to.

323
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 4: You know, the way you guys can help mac out

324
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 4: is to you know, obviously get the run game going.

325
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 4: How much of the key and how important is that

326
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 4: to get that move and so you can kind of

327
00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 4: maybe get some things started early and keep rolling throughout

328
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 4: the well.

329
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 12: I think if you saw a last game, time of

330
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 12: possession was a huge point of emphasis, right, Like, I

331
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 12: don't know if it's so much the run game, but

332
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 12: we gotta find a way to stay on the field

333
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 12: or uh give our defense a little bit of a

334
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 12: chance to take a breather, because, uh, that wasn't fair

335
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 12: to anyone, and you know it wasn't a secret we

336
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 12: we we felt on the sidelines. So if that means

337
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 12: incorporating the run game or do whatever we need to,

338
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 12: we're gonna try our best.

339
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 13: I mean it's very simple. Uh, just gotta play better,

340
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 13: gotta execute. Everybody has to do their job better. Yeah,

341
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 13: it's very simple. We're gonna get another opportunity on Sunday. Uh,

342
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 13: that's the that's the best part about it. We're gonna

343
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 13: attack it head on. I had a great day today.

344
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 13: Energy in here is great. Attitudes are great, and so

345
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 13: that's just that's how.

346
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 3: We're gonna roll.

347
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 13: We're gonna continue to fight and if a good is

348
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 13: eventually gonna come for.

349
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,359
Speaker 8: Sure, confidence though with Mac Jones getting a second opportunity

350
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 8: now a full week of practice, knowing he's the.

351
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 13: Guy, Yeah, no, it's uh, it's another great opportunity for

352
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 13: him as well. Uh, some adversity in the game. We

353
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 13: all have our own adversity in the game. We all

354
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 13: had our own part in Sunday, and we all have

355
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 13: corrections to make and we all have something to answer,

356
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 13: so including him. So we're all riding together. We're gonna

357
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 13: ride together, We're gonna die together. That's that's the motto

358
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 13: I've been rolling with and uh, definitely gonna roll into

359
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 13: Detroit with it for sure.

360
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:23,839
Speaker 3: You mentioned the energy.

361
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: A couple of guys said that at this point of season,

362
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: they're seeing guys buying more.

363
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, is that what you're saying?

364
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think I think that's really that's that's the

365
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 13: real excitement in something like this. Obviously, this is not

366
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 13: what we want to be, this is not what we expected,

367
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 13: but what a great opportunity to respond to adversity, to

368
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 13: fake go ahead, on to something really challenging, something that's

369
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 13: uh the one percent get to do every Sunday. Uh,

370
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 13: that's the exciting part of it. And that's the same

371
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 13: way for me. I see a beautiful opportunity in this

372
00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 13: to continue to lead, continue to work, continue to grow,

373
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 13: and continue to tack this thing head on. And I'm

374
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 13: I'm in the environment surrounded by that with the other guys.

375
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 13: So just a great opportunity. Uh, definitely, the energy is great.

376
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: Is that normal from teams? I mean when they're struggling

377
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: like that to to find like this or does that just.

378
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 3: Show the type of type of group you got to Yeah,

379
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 3: that's I mean.

380
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 13: It really comes down to how you know, what kind

381
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 13: of competitor are you?

382
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 3: As a man?

383
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 13: As a competitor when things aren't going right, how do

384
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 13: you how do you show up to work every single day?

385
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 3: And I think you know, I can I can only

386
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 3: speak on us.

387
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 13: We have the right guys in here that you know,

388
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 13: answer that bell every time. So obviously the situation is

389
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 13: not what we want, but we all make that decision

390
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 13: in the morning. We wake up to coming here with

391
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 13: the right mindset and the right work ethics. So I'm

392
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 13: definitely blessed to be around that. We're gonna continue to

393
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 13: work to make our situation better.

394
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 5: Do you feel like you're seeing that by in outside

395
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 5: of the locker room, everyone in the organization, coaching staff,

396
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 5: across the board.

397
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 13: Uh, yeah, that's the U Like I said, that's the

398
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 13: you know, beautiful part you know in this Uh, it's

399
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 13: just the opportunity to respond, you know.

400
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 6: M N.

401
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 13: I think adversity, you know, we all everybody, every human

402
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 13: experiences adversity. There's so much growth in that if you

403
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 13: attack it with the right mindset. I just think that's

404
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 13: in our DNA here to you know. Obviously, like I said,

405
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 13: this is not what we plan for, This is not

406
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 13: what we work for, This is not what we expected

407
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 13: of ourselves.

408
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 3: We obviously expect more.

409
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 13: But there's beauty and the struggle and there's something to

410
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 13: grow from this or something to learn from this, and uh,

411
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 13: we keep attacking with the right mindset.

412
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 3: A good is a good is gonna come YEA. If

413
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 3: you talk about adversity, how beneficial.

414
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 4: Is is it to have a guy like Mac Jones

415
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 4: who's experienced some of that.

416
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 3: Adversity in this role? Yeah?

417
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 13: Uh that y you have to have that resilient uh

418
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 13: character at the quarterback position. Every quarterback has to have

419
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 13: that trade and has to be flexed a lot. So

420
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 13: Mac is uh one of the most resilient players I've

421
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 13: been around. He is uh not phased by hardship. He

422
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 13: tacks the head on and uh that's that's important for

423
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 13: that quarterback room entirely. I think it's contagious in there

424
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 13: from the top down. So that's that's a great, uh

425
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 13: you know, aspect for him to bring to us. And

426
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 13: we have to help him be resilient, and he's gonna

427
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 13: help us be resilient. It's all a brotherhood. We're all

428
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 13: gonna keep fighting together. So that's uh, that's a great

429
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 13: you know, that's a great trade Mac has and he's

430
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 13: gonna continue to flex it.
