1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: Throw rope. You guys, finish it off. I would all 2 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: to twenty one back there, my guy, who's that it's 3 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: getting late? Som you started off to night with some 4 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: s some errand throws, even with someone you with your 5 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: experience to even you need time in an opening night 6 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: just to ease back into the situation. He's back into 7 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,479 Speaker 1: the game. Yeah, I mean I think that it's it's 8 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 1: this part of the season, so there's a lot of 9 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: things to improve. I could certainly do a lot better 10 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: job in certain areas. So, um, get back to work. 11 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,599 Speaker 1: Its first game. It's good to start one to know. Um, 12 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:44,959 Speaker 1: you know, some guys made some big plays. I love 13 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 1: how Phil played, Josh made plays, Jules did. I think 14 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 1: the receiving group, Um, so it was it was some 15 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: good things to build on. Try to try to improve 16 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: it next week. Tom, given what, um, what he's been 17 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: through and what his potential is for the team to 18 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: see Josh play as well as he does, is that 19 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: is that kind of give the team as a whole 20 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: of lift. Yeah, I mean, I think the Josh is 21 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: a great player, and he was last year for us, 22 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 1: and it's great to have him out there. And uh, 23 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: you know, he's a dynamic player, and uh, you know, 24 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: every game that we play together, there's just more things 25 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: that come up, there's more trust that's built, and uh, 26 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, I'll keep finding a way to get him 27 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,119 Speaker 1: the ball. Tom, you didn't have a chance to work 28 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,119 Speaker 1: with Josh Gordon or Julian much during training camp. How 29 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 1: how do you feel your chemistry was with those guys tonight? Yeah, 30 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: we got we got plenty of work to do. Um, 31 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,119 Speaker 1: you know, I think it was good. We didn't turn 32 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: a ball over. We were pretty penalty free for a 33 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: while until the fourth quarter. Our defense played great, So 34 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: it's a good formula for winning. Don't turn it over, 35 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: not a lot of penalties. You know. We could have 36 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: done better job in the red area, which you know, 37 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: which you know I think we can do. So nothing 38 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: is I don't think anything was perfect tonight, And try 39 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: to get back to work tomorrow and try to get 40 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: ready for next week in Miami. So when you have 41 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: had time to work with and do have chemistry with 42 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: how much was that a factor in the two touchdown 43 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: throws to Philip Dorset? With Phil? Yeah, he did a 44 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: great job. You know, Phil's smart, dependable, consistent, tough, continue 45 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: to take advantage of his opportunity, and he's done a 46 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: great job for us. He plays a lot of different 47 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 1: spots out there all training camp and came up with 48 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: too huge place tonight. So it's great getting him the 49 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: ball seeing him score like that. And he can't forget 50 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: about him because you know, he can run through the 51 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: defense and make a lot of plays with the ball 52 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: in his hands. So we'll just keep keep spreading around. 53 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: There's an old baseball expression from what twenty years ago, 54 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: chicks digged the long ball? How much do you like 55 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: throwing it deep? Yeah? That's a good saying, you agree, Yeah, Yeah, 56 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: we all digged a long ball. So how how fun 57 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: was it though for you to air it out tonight 58 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: and have that opportunity to do that. Yeah, it's good 59 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: to get a few of those in there. Um, Yeah, 60 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: it was definitely good to get a few in there. 61 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 1: It was it was a it was a game we 62 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: weren't just didn't feel like we were making consistent enough plays. 63 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: And the big plays really helped us tonight and they'll 64 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: help us every week if we keep making them. Um. 65 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: But I think you know, it's got to be different 66 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: things every week, and sometimes it's big play. Sometimes it's 67 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: more methodical drives and you know, whatever they're gonna defend, 68 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: we've got to figure out how to execute against. So 69 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: that's what you know. We'll get back to work again. 70 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: It's the first game of the year, so there's a 71 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: lot to learn from a lot of new players out there. 72 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna try to build on, you know, tonight and 73 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: try to get to Tuno Tom. We saw a lot 74 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: of those two back sets with two receiving backs, Rex 75 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: and James on the field at the same time. What 76 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: kind of advantages does that provide you guys, maybe just 77 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: in a vacuum what it does for your offense, but 78 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: maybe what it does to the defense as well. Yeah, 79 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: it's good to get you know, those guys involved in 80 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: the game too, because with the half back and you know, 81 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: you just wait for one half back every play. Those 82 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: guys don't play a lot, and they're such good players 83 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: for our team. You gotta find ways to get them 84 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: both on the field. And I think the good thing 85 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: about those guys is they're all versatile. They run, they catch, 86 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: and blitz pick up. So I think when you have 87 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: when you're able to do all three, it puts a 88 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: lot of stress on the defense. So you know they're 89 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: gonna play a big role for us all season. We 90 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: have some depth at that position and it's going to 91 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: be a critical position for us all year. Tom, you 92 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: guys put up thirty three points tonight. One guy that 93 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: gets overlooked is Josh McDaniels. You talk about the brilliance 94 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: of him and how you guys work together. Yeah, it's 95 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: We've had a great relationship for a long time. He's 96 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: have so much trust in him and what he puts 97 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: together every week, and he works extremely hard. He's diligent. 98 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: You know, he puts a lot of pressure on the defense, 99 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: and that's what you gotta do. You out, you gotta 100 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: keep forcing different things. And I think over the course 101 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: of this season, you got to figure out a lot 102 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: of different ways, and I think this team gets used 103 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: to that. You know, it's not this way he's gonna win. 104 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: You're gonna win like this every single week. It's you know, 105 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: some days it's gonna be more to the back, some 106 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: days it's gonna be more to the receiver. Some dates 107 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: more the tight ends more. It's a run game. It's 108 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: you know that that's the eb and flow of the season. 109 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: So again, I think defense played great. They have been 110 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: doing that all season and hopefully that continues, and hopefully 111 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: we can take care of keep taking care of the ball, 112 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: play good field position. We gotta do a better job 113 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 1: than we get in the red area and score more points, 114 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: and I think we can do that. Hey, m Robert 115 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: Craft told Al Michaels from NBC that you related that 116 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: you were a million percent in on Antonio Brown. Are 117 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: you excited about the addition of him and what he 118 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: can do for this team and do you see at 119 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: all any difficulty and having him assimilate to the team. Yeah, 120 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: I think everybody's excited to add you know, great players. 121 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: It helps everybody when you know you have great players 122 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: that are sharing the burden of a tough football season. 123 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: So I think, you know, like anything else, you know, 124 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: whether it was Josh last year or Philip when he 125 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: got here a few years ago late, and then you 126 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: know this year, Antonio, you know, how much can you 127 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: learn and process and get in here And we're all 128 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: going to work hard and try to get up to 129 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: speed as fast as possible. But we haven't had a 130 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: training camp together or that, so it's you know, you 131 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: got to force a lot of information and you know, 132 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: we're all excited to happen. All as I could say 133 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 1: is we're just going to work as hard as we 134 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: possibly can to to get up to speed as quickly 135 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: as possible. Yeah, just follow up because I said you 136 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: went from one hundred to one thousand to a million 137 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: percent and I was personal conversation with r KK. I 138 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: gotta reevaluate. But following up on that though, what's your 139 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: role as a team leader for for helping Antonio? Yeah, 140 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: get ACCLA made it to this situation. Yep. You know, 141 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: I think all of us players are trying to be 142 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: the best player that we could be for the team, 143 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of things that play into that. 144 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: But you know, we're all trying to reach our highest 145 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: potential individually so that we can reach our highest potential collectively. 146 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: And it doesn't come together just because you say, oh, 147 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: you know, all you guys are going to come together. 148 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: And guys have had a you know, Antonio has had 149 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: a lot of production, Damarius has a lot of production, 150 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: Julian's had a lot of production, Josh has had a 151 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: lot of production. Phill Up had a great game tonight. 152 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: So the point is we've got, you know, we've got 153 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: a lot of players that are talented, and we just 154 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: got to figure out how to how to make it 155 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: all work, and we're gonna work hard.
