WEBVTT - Press Pass: Sam Bradford

0:00:07.080 --> 0:00:08.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, once we get it going, we're pretty good.

0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:12.200
<v Speaker 1>But for some reason, it seems like there's times where,

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:16.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, we just struggle to get it going. What

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:17.640
<v Speaker 1>was what happened to your ankle? And what did they

0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:21.160
<v Speaker 1>do with the sideline? Um? Yeah, I think it was

0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 1>just a slight sprain. They just taped it, gave it

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:26.640
<v Speaker 1>some support. Is there anything in your mind you come

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>back in? No me, we did the same angle. Yeah,

0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 1>sort of at a loss for words obviously. Is that

0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:36.280
<v Speaker 1>the move to the rest of the guys? And how

0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:38.560
<v Speaker 1>do they get on that same page because it seems

0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:44.159
<v Speaker 1>visibly it's too Yeah. Um, you know, just come back

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>to work, you know, keep grinding, keep putting in the time. Um.

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think the good news is it's close. Um.

0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, a couple of these games we've had opportunities

0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>to win and just haven't finished. Um, you know, but

0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>it's not like or light years away from getting things

0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to where they need to be. You know, I think

0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 1>it's just some small details here and there. Um, you know,

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:06.840
<v Speaker 1>we've just got to get everyone's just got to get

0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 1>on the same page. Can you describe the who this

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:13.039
<v Speaker 1>locker room right now? Because I wanted to give a

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:17.080
<v Speaker 1>huge hole. You know you didn't expect it. Ye can

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:19.600
<v Speaker 1>you describe it? Um? Yeah, I think everyone's a little

0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:23.479
<v Speaker 1>frustrated right now. Um. You know this is obviously now

0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:29.160
<v Speaker 1>where we wanted or expected to be after week four. Um.

0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:33.839
<v Speaker 1>But you know, just knowing this group of guys for um,

0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:36.679
<v Speaker 1>the short period of time I do. Um, you know,

0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anyone's gonna quit. I don't think anyone's

0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:41.959
<v Speaker 1>heads down right now. You know, I think everyone I

0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:43.559
<v Speaker 1>thought this week we had a great week of practice.

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:46.399
<v Speaker 1>I thought the energy levels were great. Um. You know,

0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I think we'll be back to work Tuesday with the

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 1>same attitude. You know, we know we're close, we know

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:53.320
<v Speaker 1>we can get on a roll. Um. You know, it's

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>just a matter of kind of cleaning up some of

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 1>those small details. Um, you know, so they don't come

0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.440
<v Speaker 1>back to buy us what you need. I don't feel

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:05.240
<v Speaker 1>more today. I mean, you guys act like we don't

0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:06.680
<v Speaker 1>want to throw the ball down field. I think it

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:08.839
<v Speaker 1>was just, you know, we saw something that we could

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:10.560
<v Speaker 1>take advantage of this week, and we called a couple

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 1>of plays, you know, trying to get those posts this week. Yeah,

0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:19.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, obviously anytime that you can get

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:21.440
<v Speaker 1>big plays like that. Um, you know, they're kind of

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.880
<v Speaker 1>game changers, momentum changers, you know. I think the one

0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:25.600
<v Speaker 1>to Coop, you know on the third quarter kind of

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 1>got us going. You know, it had brought some energy

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.520
<v Speaker 1>to that sideline. Sam first things had at the tifty

0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.919
<v Speaker 1>yard line four point leading the fourth quarter and it

0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.600
<v Speaker 1>was three and out. How disappointing that to kind of

0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 1>put something together there. Very disappointing. Obviously, we felt like

0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.040
<v Speaker 1>at that time we had, you know, all the momentum.

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:42.480
<v Speaker 1>We felt like we could go down and score and

0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 1>put the game away, and just didn't do it. Through

0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:50.160
<v Speaker 1>four games, how would you assess your level play? Um? Yeah,

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:51.600
<v Speaker 1>I think there's been some good. I think there's been

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:54.160
<v Speaker 1>some bad, you know obviously, you know, I think I'm

0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 1>starting to get more comfortable out there. Um, but you know,

0:02:57.560 --> 0:02:59.640
<v Speaker 1>still too many steaks, Still too many things that need

0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 1>to be linked up. Put so many expectations on this

0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 1>offense because you feel like I couldn't sembol it better

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 1>on paper and you see something drop passage? Is that

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:09.920
<v Speaker 1>starting to wear on that? Do you think that the

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.359
<v Speaker 1>outside expectations and pressures on this offense? I don't think

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, I think at this point, when you're one

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>at three, I think those expectations are gone. Um. You know, obviously,

0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>I think there were a lot of expectations early. I

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:22.680
<v Speaker 1>think that you know, as a group, you know, we

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.240
<v Speaker 1>put a lot of pressure on ourselves to score, um,

0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, every time we touched the football. But you know,

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I think we just gotta take a big breath, you know,

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:37.839
<v Speaker 1>relax and just go have fun. Obviously you can work that. Yeah, Um,

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I just missed a little behind them right there. Um,

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:44.080
<v Speaker 1>that's why I like that back, Sam. It's it's almost

0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the only games it's been one half in each game,

0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 1>and that the whole game is have you figured it

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>out as a team? Figured it out a lot. You

0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.880
<v Speaker 1>can't put two halves together. I mean obviously not because

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:57.360
<v Speaker 1>we did it again today. Um. You know I said earlier,

0:03:57.360 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, if we knew what the answer was, we'd

0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>get it fixed. Um. You know, somehow we do have

0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:04.480
<v Speaker 1>to find out what the answer is. And you know,

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 1>it'd be great to play four quarters because you know,

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that we could really do some damage if

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>we played for four quarters, which sort have been acted

0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>to change in personnel and the shifting on the offensive

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:17.360
<v Speaker 1>line on the offensive and you, Um yeah, I've got

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:20.039
<v Speaker 1>confidence all those guys. Um, you know, someone goes down,

0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:21.840
<v Speaker 1>it's next man up. I really didn't think about it

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:24.520
<v Speaker 1>much today, Tim, you said earlier about getting on the

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 1>same page. You guys need to get to see what's

0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:30.720
<v Speaker 1>the problem there. But um, you know, I think there's

0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:32.800
<v Speaker 1>just you know, some small details here and there that

0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, I have showed up in the past. You know,

0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 1>a couple of weeks that we've left opportunities on the field. Um,

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, I think it's just getting out then, you know,

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 1>making sure that we're all seeing things the same way.

0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:46.280
<v Speaker 1>What happened to you? What happened to do the second half?

0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Did you decided like I want to air it out

0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:52.840
<v Speaker 1>to coach tell you or how did that work? Um? No,

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's not like we had any huge change

0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:58.080
<v Speaker 1>in game plan at halftime. Um, you know, I think

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:01.680
<v Speaker 1>it's just what they presented in the second half was

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:05.280
<v Speaker 1>an emotional changes that time. What was the atmosphere like that?

0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Um yeah, I think we were all a little disappointed

0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:10.279
<v Speaker 1>in the first half, but you know, we knew that

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>it was still a two possession game, and you know,

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 1>with our ability to score. You know, we didn't think

0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:15.960
<v Speaker 1>that it was that big of a hole. And you know,

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 1>we came out and got on a roll in the

0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.400
<v Speaker 1>second half, took the lead. Didn't get you confidence thus

0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>to know like you could finally like throw down the field. Yeah, absolutely,

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:25.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I think I said earlier, you know, the

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>past to Coop just seemed to kind of get us going.

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:28.839
<v Speaker 1>You know, it seemed to bring some energy to our sideline.

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, guys, thank you.
