1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: Hey, James, how's it going all right? How about yourself

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: doing all right? Um? James? Just how difficult was the

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: last two weeks trying to prepare and just playing this

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,079
Speaker 1: matchup with happening? You know, really one full week of

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: one full practice as a team. I mean it's a

6
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 1: little different obviously not getting a chance to practice, but

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,159
Speaker 1: that's no really no excuse. Is kind of where are

8
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: we're living in right now. There's a pandemic going on,

9
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: so things like this might happen to get a final

10
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: way to adjust and just playing really well week? What

11
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: what went right in the you know the end of

12
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter when you guys started to tell you know,

13
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: string together some plays and you know, getting to m

14
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: zone there the defense created some turnovers and obvious it

15
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: will be finally started making some plays and you know,

16
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: string and drives together. I think that was our issue.

17
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: We couldn't really you know, we had some three and outs,

18
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: may make a first down, then can't convert on the

19
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: next third down. Days in the nature, just couldn't put

20
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: drives together. Just gotta be better. Can't turn the football over.

21
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,919
Speaker 1: That's a huge thing we had to face the mediumly.

22
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: We to turn the ball over a lot in the

23
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: past couple of games, so I got to get that

24
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: change immediately. Next we'll go to Matt Vtour and then

25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: Joe Kota James. What does this have to do to

26
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: your sense of urgency right now? Get given them the

27
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: dits a tune three? Didn't nobody way you can say

28
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,199
Speaker 1: what your sense of urgency have to be going forward.

29
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: I mean the urgency has been up and it just

30
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: has to keep going up. Obviously, we had to find

31
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: a way to get in the rhythm offensively, especially and

32
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: just get it going. You got to help our defense out.

33
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: Oh they did a great job stopping their office in

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: the red zone, and then we weren't giving them any

35
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: help in the beginning of the game. So we had

36
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: to do a better job offensively going out the air,

37
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: streaming drives together and trying to score points to help

38
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: with the defense out. Do you think you were gonna

39
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: win when you guys got the ball back for that

40
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: last drive? So we always have faith in winning. I said,

41
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: whether we're down twenty one, up twenty one, whatever the

42
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: score is, we always have confidence. And when if especially offensive,

43
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: we get the ball in our hands at the end

44
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: of the game and our minds. Rann win the football game.

45
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: Just didn't make enough plays. Again, we'll go to joke,

46
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: Chris Franks. You can't use the pandemic as an excuse,

47
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: but can you talk about what these last two weeks

48
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: have been like for you guys. Um, the uncertainty, not

49
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: knowing practice, not knowing games, and just what that is

50
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: like on a player. I mean Bill kind of said

51
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: it a couple of days ago. It's kind of like

52
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: a day by days by our type of Thingum, the

53
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: things that may pop up, things may not. You gotta

54
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: adjust and you get alert or anything. If there's not

55
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: gonna be practice, if there's gonna be practiced. So I said,

56
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: we kind of know that could happen. Every team knows

57
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: that could possibly happen if somebody popped up with a

58
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,119
Speaker 1: positive test of things of that nature. So I said,

59
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: you just gotta find a way to adjust adversity. Um,

60
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: we just didn't play good day. Just to quick follow

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: up to the hour by hour and you know, minute

62
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: by really with the old lot you with vertend in

63
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: shack and then today as someone going down, can you

64
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: just talk about the old line and I guess the

65
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: flexibility these guys just trying to move around. You gotta

66
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: give credit to those guys, uh and moving all different positions,

67
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: new guys stepping in there, those guys competing and finding

68
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: their tails off trying to help us one football games.

69
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: So you gotta give a hats off them. It's definitely

70
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: not easy, you know, swapping off different positions and knowing

71
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: different plays and all that things of that nature. So

72
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: those guys have been trying to fight for us. Another

73
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: follow up that that play that was it looked to

74
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: be a first down? Did you think you had the

75
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: first down on that play? I thought I did? Um,

76
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess they must have thought I was

77
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: was down or whatever. I'm at third down, but not easy.

78
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: I thought I had it, but they presuly the call. No,

79
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: that's what they thought me. So I think that nature.

80
00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: So thank you those guys, and my last question will

81
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: go to Chris Ryan. Then we'll have Joe Tuney to

82
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: follow in the thank Chris. Hey, James, you mentioned, you

83
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: know the fact that the offense didn't find rhythm today,

84
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: and obviously there's the built in excuses as to why

85
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: that perhaps didn't take place, But outside of that, why

86
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: do you think that you never really found that that

87
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: rhythm today and it took kind of camp putting the

88
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: ball down and getting yards late to get anything going

89
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: for you guys. I think as the turnovers too, that

90
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: those are always going to kill you. Turn the ball

91
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: over a few times in this league, or percentages of

92
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: winning the football game drop off a lot, So you

93
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: just do a better job of taking the football at

94
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: least drive down to get there and turnovers for us

95
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: and to give us a chance. So you got to

96
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: do a better job of helping them out. The final

97
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: thing is it difficult even though you guys don't really

98
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,359
Speaker 1: ever make excuses to not fall into that trap, given

99
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: you know all of the circumstances that have surrounded this

100
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: group for the last couple of weeks, and how do

101
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: you guard against that, particularly if more practice gets canceled

102
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: down the road, if there's more issues. I mean, like

103
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: I said, each and every team can face some like that,

104
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: So there's no excuse. It could be us this week,

105
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: could be another team the next weekend. Like I said,

106
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: it's the world we're living in right now. Everybody knows

107
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: that can happen, so I just gotta fight through. Thanks James,
