1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Can you seem like you had a little bit of

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 1: instant chemistry with Jake at the end of the game there.

3
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 1: Did you did you feel that? I mean he just

4
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: he really just came in and you know, made the

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: most of an opportunity. You know, Um, things weren't going well,

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: so I think he kind of just wanted their fearless

7
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: really and kind of you know, let me sling it

8
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: around a little bit. I mean he did a hell

9
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: of a job. He think he gave the office a

10
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,319
Speaker 1: little bit, but shot me off. Um. I mean, like

11
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: I said, Jake came in and um did well. Um,

12
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: you know, um, I got some reps in with him today. Um,

13
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: it was it was nice to see that, you know,

14
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: when his number was called, he came there and made

15
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: some place. Would you like to see them start? Did you? Quarterback?

16
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: What do you guys need to do to just move

17
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: the ball better? Uh? I think we gotta stop, you know,

18
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: shooting ourself in the foot. You know, we we have

19
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: some I don't think we don't remember how many times

20
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: we went three and now I don't think we went

21
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: three and now we were having good drives, But we

22
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: need to find a way to put in his own

23
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: would you like to see Jake start? I mean, you know,

24
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: I haven't worked too much with Jake. Um at this point. Um,

25
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: it could be Jake or Mike. You know, I don't

26
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't really know that. I'm not really saying who

27
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: I like to start a red doesn't matter to me.

28
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: What is she doing well? Does he have like a

29
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: confidence or what I will say? When he came in, Um,

30
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: in the huddle, you know, he definitely you know, controlled

31
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: the huddle. Well, UM, I wasn't surprised. You know, I've

32
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: I've I've took reps with him in practice before. Um,

33
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: it was good to see. You know what did he

34
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: show it on the practice field? You know, translate to

35
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: the game. That was his first NFL snaps? Like was

36
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: it was it cool seeing him being willing to come

37
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: out and take some shot steed on the field. I

38
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: mean that's yeah, I mean, that's that's that's that's great

39
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: to see. Um, I didn't know that was his first

40
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: NFL snap. Um, yeah, that's great. Um, you know he

41
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: should definitely be you know, excited about that. Um. You know,

42
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: I'm happy for him if Dallas defend you guys any

43
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: differently because it's sort of like a two minute situation

44
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,919
Speaker 1: where you're up to score. There was after the defense

45
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: they're playing throughout the game in that draft. I mean,

46
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: of course you're gonna play a little bit more zone,

47
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: so you know, it was kind of awf a little bit.

48
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: You know, they kind of switched it up. Um, so

49
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: of course it was a game like that. Of course

50
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 1: they're going to switch it up. Kenny, how you talk

51
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: to the chef and what was his message? What was

52
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: your message? Anything? You can chair? Since he got out?

53
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: UM me and his conversation, you know, that's that's pretty

54
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: much confidential. But I mean not I definitely hit him

55
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: up and um, you know, just tell him how much

56
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: I appreciate him. Um. I know how much work he

57
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: put in this offseason. I know how much he work

58
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: he put in, how much work he put into you know,

59
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: try to get back to play for this team. Um,

60
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: I know how much he did is you know, organizations,

61
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: he's been here. And see him go out like that

62
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: with only like a minute and something left in that game,

63
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's tough. UM. I was definitely sad

64
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: for him. UM. So you had me and him talked

65
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: a little bit. Can watched the Eagles game last night.

66
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: Oh no, I don't actually get an answer for this,

67
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: but like, why do you think so many and the

68
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: skilled players are just dealt with injuries this year? Like

69
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: when you you gotta sit around talking what you know,

70
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: what's your theory or yeah, I don't have an answer, Um,

71
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: it's it's it's crazy. I don't know. I think almost

72
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: everybody on on our team as far as skill player wise,

73
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 1: it's dealt with something. It's from the tight end and

74
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: running back room. You see, if its quarterback is oldline

75
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: is crazy. Doesn't make you think like what if, like

76
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: if all these guys are healthy that I mean, yeah,

77
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: you know it's always that what if. But I mean

78
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: it's none of you can read about it, Kenny, big

79
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: big picture? What what makes a good offense? I mean

80
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: obviously scoring touchdown, scoring points, but like what is missing

81
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: right now? Just big picture in your offense that needs

82
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: to be here next year? Um, I think when everyone

83
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: everyone's on the same page. Um, you know, the chemistry

84
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: has to be there and then going out there just

85
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: executing the place. That's what makes a good offense. Um.

86
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: You see, you know some of these these teams that's

87
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: scoring a lot of points or just offenses that's producing

88
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: week in a week out health health health wise, you know,

89
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: it's not a lot of injury st that team. Um,

90
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: a lot of ball together. Um, and of course just

91
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: the play isn't going out there executing. Okay, Kenny, this

92
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: was your first year playing with Darius Late. His first

93
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: two years are remarkably consistent. These numbers aren't quite there

94
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: yet this year. Nobody's sorry, yours aren't where that you

95
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: should What was your what should take away from Darius? Like?

96
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: What did you learn about him this year? What kind

97
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: of player is he? What's his future? That guy? Uh,

98
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: I've kind of seen before I got here, Um slave

99
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: from Afar. I want to say, they came to Detroit

100
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: one year. I think he scored like two touchdowns coming. Yeah,

101
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: I mean I've I've liked Slay. I played when his teammates,

102
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: um carry On Johnson and you know carry On spoke

103
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: very high over them. And I mean when I when

104
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: I practiced with him, I see it. You know. Um,

105
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: it's just been a rough year for everybody. Like you said,

106
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: um all around the board. Uh, yeah, that's that's pretty much.

107
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 1: I mean, I like Slay. I like this game. Okay,

108
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: last month, we obviously talk about that the confidence in

109
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: the huddle of the command kind of that that fearlessness.

110
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: There are a lot of guys who step on the

111
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: field in the NFL and that doesn't necessarily mean results. Um,

112
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: do you have atherious Hawaii? Like, sometimes guys are just

113
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: that confident that that confidence kind of becomes something more.

114
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like it's just one of those

115
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: you know, things you just gotta have. UM. And I

116
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: also think it was no reason him to go in there,

117
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: you know, playing timid. Um it was under two minutes.

118
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: You know, there's nothing you can really do that's going

119
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: to really make or break the game. Right now. I'm

120
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: not taking nothing away from him at all. I mean

121
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: he still came in there and control of the hood,

122
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: like I said, through the ball around. Uh, but just

123
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: going there and not thinking I don't want to mess up.

124
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: I think that's the first step. I don't want to

125
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: mess up. So with him going in there like hey,

126
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: let me go out there and try to, you know,

127
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 1: prove myself, that was great to see and I think

128
00:05:58,600 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: that's kind of what he did
