1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: The man of the hour. Welcome. It's good to finally

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: talk with you here. Now.

3
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 2: We talked with you right after you got drafted in

4
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 2: a previous incarnation of the show, was over the phone,

5
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 2: So this is our first time talking to you in person.

6
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 2: And uh, let's just go ahead and ask you did

7
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 2: the debut? Did your debut in the NFL go the

8
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 2: way you wanted it to?

9
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't say it. Did I think

10
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 3: you would to come out with a win? I guess

11
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 3: the called ultimate goal, especially in your first start, is

12
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 3: coming out with a win, and we didn't get that

13
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 3: done playing against the good football team and definitely had flashes.

14
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 1: At the end of the day.

15
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 3: What we're preaching that locker room is is winning football,

16
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,160
Speaker 3: and we didn't come out on top.

17
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: What we were emotions? What did it feel like to

18
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 1: start the game?

19
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 4: Did you feel like at some point you settled in

20
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 4: and maybe put the butterflies away? What was sort of

21
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 4: the emotional range you felt.

22
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, those first you know, kind of just pre game,

23
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 3: you know, just a little nervous and a little you know,

24
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 3: really excited. It's kind of anxious for the kickoff and

25
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 3: kind of after the first couple couple drives kind of

26
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 3: settled in a little bit. I thought I was seeing

27
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 3: it well, I was throwing football well offtus. You would

28
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: like to have a couple of throws back. But at

29
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 3: the end of the day, I thought that the gods

30
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: played hard. We fought to the end, and if I know,

31
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 3: we had a couple of times, a couple of chances

32
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 3: where we were, you know, fight away to get back

33
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 3: in it, and we just put even some bad spots

34
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 3: and turn over the football and can't do that in

35
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 3: this league.

36
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 2: Getting the ball with one minute left to go before

37
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: before halftime. Obviously you have the two minute drill is

38
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: really a one minute drill. But going out there and

39
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 2: sort of seeing the field, did it seem like the

40
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: game kind of opened up for you a little bit

41
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 2: right there? Did it seem like there was guys getting

42
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: extra steps and you just see in the field a

43
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: little bit better maybe than you did in the beginning

44
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 2: when you were all pumped up.

45
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you have a big thing in kind

46
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 3: of you know, two many drill or like I said,

47
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 3: one mandrow at the end, there's just final completions and

48
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 3: you know, a little five yard you know, it was

49
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 3: really like a spot route to pop over on the

50
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 3: sideline turns into a big play and just credit those

51
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: guys for just me trying to find completions and let

52
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 3: them make the place and ended up, you know, having

53
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 3: a match up one on one where you know, the

54
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: Texans are trying to probably keeps out of a field goal range,

55
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 3: trying to heat us up, and you know hit booty

56
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 3: down the sideline. So little things like that, Yeah, it

57
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 3: makes you know, gives a you know, orkie quarterbacks some

58
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 3: confidence going into you know halftime and then you know

59
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: come out a half time and you'll hold wall too

60
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 3: long and you know turnover. So just a little things

61
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: like that that you know, Coach Mayo is pre complementary

62
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 3: football and we're not getting that done. But like I

63
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 3: said earlier, we got we showed some flashes, we got

64
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 3: some stuff to build on, and you're excited to get

65
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 3: to London and get back at it.

66
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 4: I feel like we have to rewind a little bit.

67
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 4: So your debut was yesterday, but it was week six

68
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,119
Speaker 4: for the team. We heard so much from your head

69
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 4: coach and a VP about the plan and you developing

70
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 4: behind the scenes. Uh, why was yesterday right for you?

71
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 4: And and how were you maybe better prepared for yesterday

72
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 4: based on watching Jacobi through the first five games of

73
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 4: the season and everything that went on on the practice

74
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 4: field in the game field.

75
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

76
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, first off, just really thankful to get the opportunity

77
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 3: to get out there. And I think they had a

78
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 3: plan and you know, I think they know most They

79
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 3: gave me the nod. They gave me a full week

80
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 3: to prepare for the game. And that's something you want.

81
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 3: You don't want to you know, be informed. You know,

82
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 3: a couple days or day of the game. I'll get

83
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 3: you a full week of practice being the starter and

84
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 3: handing all the other stuff handling and that. So you know,

85
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 3: really I think you know the biggest thing taking from

86
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 3: the from the game and you know how we you

87
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 3: didn't come up on top, but uh just kind of

88
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 3: get getting a sense of, you know, being the starting

89
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 3: quarterback and being starting correct in this fell and you

90
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 3: know what you need to see and learning through Jacobe

91
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 3: the first five weeks of how he prepares and how

92
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 3: he handles you know, different things, and how he kept

93
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 3: on you'll fight and get back up and when he's

94
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 3: getting hit and a little things like that is kind

95
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 3: of it will help me, and playing the game on

96
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 3: the sideline, all those kind of different things that kind

97
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 3: of play into you know, me kind of quote unquote

98
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: getting more ready and just kind of seeing things and

99
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 3: seeing how it plays out and instead of going out

100
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 3: there Week one kind of you know a little bit

101
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: of deer the headlights, trying to figure it out and

102
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 3: kind of felt more comfortable going out there, you know,

103
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: last week, seeing some how things work and how we

104
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: game plan and you know what, you know what AVP

105
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 3: wants from the quarterback and you know, little things that

106
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: kind of go a long way and playing football and

107
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: playing quarterback.

108
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: Would you say you're a more visual learner that you

109
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: learn more by going out there and actually playing.

110
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: Which which one of those things you think is more

111
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: beneficial for you as a player.

112
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you know, it's hard to you know,

113
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 3: replicate the game reps. I think it's hard to reapgate that.

114
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 3: And you know, watching film and studying film and using

115
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 3: the VR and all the visuals stuff can can help.

116
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: But at the same time, you'll get out there and

117
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,119
Speaker 3: live bullets. It's hard to beat.

118
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: Did you want to start week one? Like? Did you

119
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: want to be the starter all season long?

120
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: Was that something that you disorder were week after week

121
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 2: expecting to get that call and disappointed when he didn't

122
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: get it.

123
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 3: No, I think you know you understand that. You know

124
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: Kobe coming in as a veteran, you know what he

125
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 3: brings to the table. And you know, I thought, you know,

126
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 3: he played his butt off and did everything you could

127
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 3: at the same time, just you know, sitting at one

128
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 3: and four and should the rest is you know that's that?

129
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: And you know from there, Uh, you always want to

130
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 3: be the starter, preparing like you're the starter. And you know,

131
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 3: if you in a quarterback room in the NFL, you

132
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: don't want to be the starter. You're probably won't be

133
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 3: in there very long.

134
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 4: Now twenty four hours later, I'm sure you've kind of

135
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: watched the film and seen everything, and now you also

136
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 4: have your memory of it. What's the best thing you

137
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 4: did yesterday? What's the worst thing you did yesterday?

138
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 3: The best thing I did probably handling someversity. You know

139
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 3: obviously come out coming out in that second drive with

140
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 3: Pop over the middle and miss him over the middle.

141
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 3: You know, just something beat myself up about. And you know,

142
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 3: on the sideline, I fel like I need to make

143
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: those throws and some of my best thing is thrown

144
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: across the middle. What's a lot of ours out there

145
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 3: for pop I think, especially on some of the crossing routes.

146
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: But other than that, I think, you know, bounce back

147
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 3: from a varsity yeah, end up, you'll putting together score

148
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 3: and drive at the end of the half and kind

149
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: of coming out with some juice in the second half.

150
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 3: And then we were on that come back and you

151
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 3: know we're in it again, and then you know, the

152
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 3: tipped interception. So it's like times when we were batting adversity.

153
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 3: I think we fought back and try to get ourselves

154
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 3: a chance and you'll get back in the game. We

155
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 3: just didn't capitalize. And then the thing that I can

156
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 3: prove on is just you know, helping helping the guys

157
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 3: up front. They got a tough task, you know that

158
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 3: on injuries and had a great d line from Houston.

159
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 3: So getting the ball out and you know, realizing that

160
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 3: sometimes incompletion is the best play.

161
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 2: One of my favorite plays that you had yesterday, it

162
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 2: was a play action. I think it was hasty and

163
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 2: then you ran up the middle and you push hasty

164
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 2: end of the linebacker and then just kept going Uh,

165
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 2: you've always been touted coming out of college and starting

166
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 2: off here as a mobile quarterback, a guy who can

167
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 2: get out there and run. Uh, what'd you think of

168
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 2: the of the way you were able to do that

169
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: in the game yesterday. Is that something that you want

170
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 2: to be able to build off of and how much

171
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: of your game do you think that's gonna be?

172
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a big part of my game.

173
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 3: I think, you know, someone, one thing I was trying

174
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 3: to do yesterday is not you know, try to hunt

175
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 3: those plays up. Just kind of let them come to

176
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 3: me and see if I see opportunity to go, you know,

177
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 3: run and make a play, go do it. And also

178
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: I ex didn't play it's the hunter on the move,

179
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 3: you know, on a big play. And you know that's

180
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 3: part of my game is hot play And like I said,

181
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 3: not trying to hunt those hunt those plays up. But

182
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 3: it's definitely something that I can kind of feel and

183
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 3: feel like I have a good feel for.

184
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 4: I have this working theory that your family and your

185
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 4: brothers are obviously a big part of developing you and

186
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 4: maybe preparing you for everything that comes with being a

187
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 4: franchise quarterback. That video where they called you a bitch,

188
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 4: that thing, you know, sometimes being kind of humbled or

189
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 4: put in your place. I believe they were up for

190
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 4: the game, do you feel And you mentioned them last

191
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 4: night talking about how they'll remind you that you lost.

192
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 4: They're not necessarily going to say you threw three touchdowns,

193
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 4: they're going to How big a part is your family

194
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 4: in terms of helping prepare you for being the starting

195
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 4: quarterback of an NFL team and taking the good, the

196
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 4: bad and everything in between.

197
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 3: No, I think it's huge, huge, having you know, three

198
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 3: older brothers that you know, have been through a lot

199
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 3: of experiences sports and seeing a lot of great games

200
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 3: where they played well but they lost, and a lot

201
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: of games were to play as well and we won.

202
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 3: I think the biggest thing we got out of from

203
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 3: is we were more happy when we won. You know

204
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 3: that we lost, and that's kind of you know, how

205
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 3: we grew up and we were always you know something,

206
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 3: if something was if a score was being kept, you know,

207
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 3: you want to be on the winning side, and you

208
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: know it was never you know, it was always first loser,

209
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 3: you know, in that second place. So that's kind of

210
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 3: kind of a motto and I think it helps you know,

211
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 3: still remind me to this day. You know, it's not

212
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 3: as much competing going on between the brothers, but you know,

213
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 3: we compete in our own ways. And my brother Luke

214
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 3: was playing you know, basketball in Japan overseas, so he's

215
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 3: he's living through it right now and in his in

216
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 3: his uh his career, and now I'm on the state

217
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 3: of the NFL. So they do a good job of

218
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 3: reminded me, hey, you know you missed that throw or

219
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 3: a nice play, and they do a good job of

220
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 3: pumping me up at the same time keep me humble.

221
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 4: Coach Mayo was asked this morning about how you handled

222
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 4: the week and your personality, and he said, uh, you

223
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 4: almost have a grunk ish personality. Rob Gronkowski, who everybody

224
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 4: knows was, I don't know, the frat boy tight end,

225
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 4: the fun loving tight end, but also really smart, productive,

226
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 4: hard working football player. Do you think there's some truth

227
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 4: maybe in that comparison. Does that work for you?

228
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: I think it's easy.

229
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, with with you know the brothers, the ads and

230
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 3: the sports brothers to make a connection like that. You know, grunks,

231
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 3: you know a legend and you know way did here

232
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 3: and I think you know what kind of goes you know,

233
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 3: without saying is the work you put in and what

234
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 3: you did on the field. So I'm just trying to

235
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 3: bring injury. Trying to bring injury as a starting quarterback,

236
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 3: you know, for this football team, and try to bring

237
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 3: it every week. And then just try to be authentic.

238
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: That's the biggest thing, is to be real, create real

239
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 3: relationships and kind of start you know, leading that way.

240
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: At the end of the game, I know the game

241
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 2: was basically over at that point, but you guys were

242
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 2: going forward on fourth down, you were picking up fourth

243
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 2: down conversions, and then it seemed like you just were

244
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 2: you know, kind of handing off, letting the clock run out.

245
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 2: Did you want to do you want to take a

246
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: couple of shots? There was that just you know, game's over,

247
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 2: We're moving on.

248
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had we had some some shots. Throw it

249
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 3: in the end zone and you know they're sitting back waiting,

250
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 3: you know, for for you know, go a route or

251
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 3: something in the end zone. So just trying to stay

252
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 3: out there, just trying to stay healthy and trying to

253
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 3: you know, make make them right those and not tink

254
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 3: he hits.

255
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: What uh, what's your relationship with Alex Van Pelt.

256
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 4: I know, coach Mayo in the summer said that's gonna

257
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 4: be the one voice you hear, that's gonna be the guy.

258
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 4: And clearly you two have a key relationship in terms

259
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 4: of your development in this offense is development? What's your

260
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 4: relationship with him and how do you think that can

261
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 4: maybe grow as you get experience on the field.

262
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's been great. I think you know, the

263
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 3: best thing about a VP is, you know, he's he's

264
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: done it. He's played quarterback, he's played in college, played

265
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 3: in this league, and you understand what needs to be

266
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 3: done and you know what it takes to you know,

267
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 3: play you know, at high level in this league. You know,

268
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 3: also to say, you know, the guys he's coached, you know,

269
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 3: he's coached some great Ones and Rogers and some of

270
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 3: those guys. So just trying to, you know, soak it

271
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 3: all up. I think, you know, Jacoby's you know, it's

272
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 3: been awesome to have him in the room kind of

273
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 3: be his you know, another guy who's who's been in

274
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 3: that position and played in this league and seen a

275
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 3: lot of different things. So a v P, you know,

276
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 3: he's great. He's uh, he's very positive and he's positive

277
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 3: the whole group. By the same time, he keeps in

278
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: check and expects a lot out of us. So I

279
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 3: think the biggest thing for his offense is just know

280
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 3: what they're in for. Emphasizing and you what rumorfies enough

281
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 3: offensively like last week's starting fast. We need to get

282
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 3: that done. The little things like that that we need

283
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 3: to do, we need to need to execute them, and

284
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 3: that's the big thing.

285
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: So all right, Quarterback.

286
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,280
