1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: UH, big week ahead. Um. A lot of preparation to do.

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: Need a good week of practice, as you guys. I think. No,

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: the schedule is a little bit different. So today will

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: be a normal Wednesday, tomorrow will be a normal Thursday.

5
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Friday will be a walk through, Um in meetings, much

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: like it was in the first week of the season.

7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: Then Saturday will be like a Friday. Sunday will be

8
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: like a Saturday. So if you can get all that down, um.

9
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: So first and second down day for us today. A

10
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: lot of work to do. Um. That's a really good

11
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: football team, division opponent at home. Um, we're gonna need

12
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: our best week here. Over, every game is a big game,

13
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: but you know you got the cowboys on national TV

14
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: Monday night. Does that kind of add to the excitement? Well,

15
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: playing on Monday night is always special, um, but the

16
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: things that help you win a game and on Sunday

17
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: at one o'clock are the things that help you win

18
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: a game on Monday, and I think that's where our

19
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 1: focus needs to be. Is there's plenty of things that

20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 1: we needed to correct from week two, from week one.

21
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: You know, not just you're always evaluating where you're at

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: as a team. Um, whether it's after a loss, after

23
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: when you're doing research on scheduling making adjustments. You know,

24
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: you never want to come out and say, well, we

25
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: weren't prepared in that regard. We're you know, we're working

26
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: hard to keep improving as an organization all the way around. Um,

27
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: you know, we look forward to playing on on Monday

28
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: night and trying to build off on some of the

29
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: things we did well and improve on, you know, the

30
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: things that we haven't done well. We're not here for

31
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: Andrew Thomas. The first two years you've inheritive in his

32
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: third year. Um, what do you what did you see

33
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: from him when you first got him, you know, when

34
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: he looked at his film, and did you work on him,

35
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: maybe in Buffalo? You know he did some way. You know. Well,

36
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: what is how is he, you know, progressed in the

37
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: short time you've been well, he's a good player. He's

38
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: very talented, but I think you know, playing offensive line

39
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: in the national football league is it's tough, particularly playing tackle.

40
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: You're going against some dominant edge rushers. Usually the speed

41
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: of the game is quicker, even though he played, you know,

42
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: in the SEC at the highest level. So I'd say

43
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: that you know, experience helps. You're going to go through

44
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: some growing pains. I'm I'm certain that he did. We

45
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: all do, and I think that his mindset is just

46
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: very he's a very consistent, dependable person and that kind

47
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: of translates to the field. That part about him. Yeah,

48
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to fit three like him,

49
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: or maybe you do. I don't know exact. I think

50
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: it's most important that he's just himself. Um, there's some

51
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: guys that are are very consistent, there's there's some guys

52
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: that are extremely high energy, like Hottie, Um, and that's okay.

53
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: I think it's as long as they're true to themselves

54
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: and and buy into what we're doing. Compete, consistency, dependability,

55
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: and he's done that since I've in here and I

56
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 1: think that he's a good leader to Paul in the room. Um,

57
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, he's I think he's opening up his personality

58
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: little bit. He's, you know, he's not dancing as much

59
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: as hotti out of practice, but you know, there's he's

60
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: been true to himself, which has helped our our offensive

61
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: football's helped our entire team. I think that's why he

62
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: was elected captain to yeah, yeah, like I said after

63
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: the game. I think he's made really good decisions. Um.

64
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: You know, there's there's always plays that we could be

65
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: better at, Um, but his decision making process, where he's

66
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: gone with the football, he's made the right decision, I'd

67
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: say a lot Um, and that helps. I mean the

68
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: job of a quarterback it's not you know, I've been

69
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: part of teams where we're thirty five or forty for

70
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: four hundre yards and four touchdowns and I've been part

71
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: of teams where we're seventeen or twenty one or whatever

72
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: it is. For his job is to to help the

73
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: offense move to football, whatever that is. It Star. It's

74
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: with decision making at quarterback. Um. He touches the ball

75
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: on every play and he's done a good job of that.

76
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: We're going to continue to build that, but I'm pleased

77
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: with where he's at. Has Been Pretty, pretty impressive through

78
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: through the first two weeks. But how important is it

79
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: for the offense to find another legitimate like a real

80
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: legitimate game changer outside of one? And his performance the

81
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: first two weeks is it and helped finding that player,

82
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: because obviously he's going to demand a lot of attentions. Yeah,

83
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: and look he's a he's an exceptional player, I would say,

84
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: in this in this league, and we have confidence in

85
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: all the guys that are here. That's why they're here. Um.

86
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes there's power and numbers too, Um, you know,

87
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: split things up, making a competition. Maybe. You know there's

88
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: thirte reps a piece for a bunch of guys, and

89
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: just try to have defenses, defend the whole field, play good,

90
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: complimentary football. On the offensive side of it, do what

91
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be do and be where you're supposed

92
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: to be and then, again, goes back to your question

93
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: with Daniel, make the right decision. Um. So I think

94
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: all our guys are working hard. I have offence and

95
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: the guys that we have, and we'll have a need

96
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: to have a good week here. Daniel, what even learned

97
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: about that? It's one thing for you to go through

98
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: the Spring and, you know, even the preseason with him,

99
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: but when getting the game, I'm sure it's a little differently.

100
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 1: What have you learned about him from that experience so far?

101
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: He's very he's much like Andrew. He's very steady. Um,

102
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: and I'm a fairly emotional guy and it's a it's

103
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: a good mix, you know, because I can get pretty

104
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: high strong at times and he's very, very consistent. I

105
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: think he you know, he responds to a variety of

106
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: different coaching techniques, if you will, but it's he sees things.

107
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 1: You know, when we sit there and we talk, we

108
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: have good communication on silence, you know, not something that

109
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: I've had a lot of experience with him. So I'm

110
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: learning that as we go. Um, here's why I did this.

111
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: or I might say, Hey, what did you see here?

112
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 1: This guy was dropping underneath. It was really his own

113
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: they disguised as man. So I don't even worry about

114
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: this other backs, whatever it may be. Um, he's a

115
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: good communicator in that regard. And he's got, you know,

116
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: he's got a little spunk to him too, you know.

117
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 1: I know everybody doesn't see it, but Um, he has

118
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: that as well. Different plays. He response to coach James?

119
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: What does he respond to him? Well, really, there hasn't

120
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: been much that I haven't done with him, Um, that

121
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: he hasn't responded to. I think that's the mark of

122
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: a good pro the you're always trying to learn your players, Um,

123
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 1: and we've had you know, I've gotten on him. Um,

124
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: I've loved him up. I've you know, what a teacher

125
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: is supposed to do is teach him. Hey, this is

126
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: what you did. First of all, tell me why you

127
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: do it, because it's a tough position to play. Everybody

128
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: can see it from the outside, but unless you're standing

129
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: back there in the pocket, which I'm not either, Um,

130
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: you see a lot of different things. That happen fast,

131
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: and let's talk about what you saw. Here's what I saw.

132
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 1: Let's make a correction. I'd say that's, you know, usually

133
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 1: the way it works, Um, and if there's just a

134
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: you know, a really poor decision, and maybe that's not

135
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: as much what you see versus what I saw. Were

136
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: you worried at the starting season? You're lying on a

137
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: lot of young players, about this team's death, and have

138
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: you been surprised? And how important is that in this

139
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: league too, to be deep and because you know, guys

140
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: are start dropping? Yeah, uh, well, again, the guys that

141
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: we keep, they are the ones that earn it. So

142
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: everybody's got to play at some point and we've all

143
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: coached guys that are rookies or first year players, and

144
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: as long as they're out here competing doing their job,

145
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: then you feel comfortable putting them in the game. Um,

146
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: a lot like we're talking about with Paul, with Andrew, there's,

147
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: you know, there's certain things you have to learn and

148
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: the only way to learn is to play. Um. And

149
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: it may not be great the first week or the

150
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: second week, but you're trying to continually build your roster,

151
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: build a depth to your roster. UH, improve the confidence

152
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: of the young players, get the young players reps and

153
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: you're not just gonna throw them out there just to

154
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: say hey, I threw, you know, a rookie out here.

155
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: They have to earn that role. Um. But I do

156
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: think that, Um, you know, playing helps and then when

157
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: you put them out there, if they've earned it, I

158
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: think that builds their confidence to Um, I wouldn't say surprised.

159
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: I just say we had a good group. I again

160
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: I go back to Joe, Um, to our process of

161
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: of really evaluating the players throughout the draft process. was

162
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: starting with the Scouts and then the coaching meetings and

163
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: all the combine meetings and the extra meetings we had

164
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: the zooms. You know, we try to select the right player,

165
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: but also the right person with high character, that has

166
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: that stuff, tough, smart, dependable mentality. Um, and usually can

167
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: work with those kind of guys that you have good

168
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: talent but also have those other intangibles that are important

169
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: to us as an organization. You observed about Mica parses.

170
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: He's a problem. Um. He's a dying amic football player

171
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: and he can play multiple spots. He does, you know,

172
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: you'll see him a linebacker, you see him at defensive end.

173
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: He has rare pass rush ability. Um. You know, we're

174
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: gonna have to have a good plan for him. Um.

175
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: You know, he's just he's fun to watch when you're

176
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: not getting ready to play him. I'll give him that compliment.

177
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean that's he just does things that are that

178
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: are pretty impressive on the football field any side. Yeah,

179
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: I mean they've, they've. I've seen him play in a

180
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: variety of spots. He plays in the stack behind, you know,

181
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: loaded up box and play on want like. We have

182
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: to obviously know where he's at, Um, but our tackles

183
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: are going to have to do a good job too.

184
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: You can't, you know, chip home or do you know?

185
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: You can't do it on every single play. Um. And

186
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: I think that's the beauty where they move them around.

187
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: I think coach Quinn does a great job with his

188
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: scheme and he's a he's a dynamic player. Do you

189
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: expect it's four guys on defense, Cavon, Leonard, ZZ and

190
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Robinson. Do you expect those guys to play on

191
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: my Um, I would say, what am I gonna say?

192
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: Day to day. We'll see. We'll see. I think they're.

193
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: I think they're. You know, I'll just start with Um

194
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: tibs and Z's. You know, they're getting they're getting close. Um,

195
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: they're gonna take some team reps today. So I think

196
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: they took a little bit last week, but they're gonna

197
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: take more this week. They're getting they're getting close. So

198
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: we'll see. With them, I'd say they're they're still day

199
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: to day, even though they're they're on the close side. Um,

200
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: Leo's rehabbing again. I'm not Leo is a quick healer.

201
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: I mean he tells me. You know he's a quick healer.

202
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna put it past Leo to be

203
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: ready to go. Um, would it shock me either way? No,

204
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: but Um, he'll stay in. He'll get treatment today during

205
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 1: practice us. So so you guys know. I think that's

206
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 1: the best thing for him. And then a rob I

207
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: think is is really a wild card. Pat Um again,

208
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 1: how that he's getting better. He's walking around, but Um,

209
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: I'd say I won't know that. Probably won't any of

210
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,319
Speaker 1: US know until the end of the week. Oh, wandell

211
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: getting better. Close Um for this week. I'm not sure

212
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: with this offense, does it make a difference in your

213
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: on mind who has the most catches? I mean you

214
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 1: just want to see the ball move around to different people. Yeah,

215
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: I just want to try to score. Um. So it

216
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: could be a twelve catches, five catches, no catches. I

217
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: think everybody just has to do their jobs. So that

218
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: you know, offensive plays is really you know, we always

219
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: say execution. It really is execution. There's design spots, different blocks. Uh,

220
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: you know, defensively, if you you make a mistake, you're

221
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: out of gap. You can you can fall back and

222
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 1: maybe make a play. Uh. Really, to have an offense

223
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: be consistent, which you know we're working on, we all

224
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: have to be on the same page from the start

225
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 1: all the way through the finish. I mean that's usually

226
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: when they work the best. A couple more, a couple more.

227
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: You'RE gonna ask, though. I like how you start that.

228
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna like talking about Buffalo, but when

229
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: you talk about your your offense there, I mean you

230
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: really did. It seemed like it went to another level

231
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: when you guys added Diggs. It was like that true,

232
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: like real number one out there. I mean, so it

233
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 1: does the scheme. I want to just say with with Buffalo,

234
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: but anytime you have you know, I mean he's a

235
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: I'd say he's a special player, just like I'll cut

236
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: it back to Dallas now. His brother, his brother, is

237
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: a special player. I've known his brother, UM sauce. I

238
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: was at Alabama. They're both very talented players. And again,

239
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: we're on our first year. Um, we're working at details,

240
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: we're working on doing things every you know it's not

241
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: gonna be right every time, um, but the guy are

242
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 1: putting in a lot of work. They have been, I'm

243
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: very confident in, you know, what they've been doing, their preparation,

244
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: our process, and you know it's a it's a week

245
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: by week. We just try to keep getting a little

246
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: bit better each week. Days. Within the last week you

247
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: talked a lot about the emotion of the stadium for

248
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: Home Games. How much more does emotion play into a

249
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: rivalry game on prime time? They got the white out

250
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 1: play for the Dallas game and stuff. Is there an

251
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: extra part of that that kind of pushes things along? Well,

252
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: I would just say again the fan support has been great.

253
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: It was awesome last week. Looking forward to it this week.

254
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: I think the most important thing is is trying to

255
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: do our job and play well and you can definitely

256
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: feed off of the energy that they're providing when we

257
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: make a good play or we make a good stop.

258
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: I mean it was hard to hear out there, UH,

259
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: for Carolina, I know, and that's, like you say, the

260
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: Twelfth Man. It's like a twelfth man. It's it's it's

261
00:13:55,480 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: hard to operate offensive football when it's that loud. Um.

262
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: So obviously everybody gets, you know, juiced up a little

263
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 1: bit Um after good plays. I think the crowd really was.

264
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: Was Great and we'll, you know, we'll do our best

265
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: to help them be great again by, you know, playing well.
