You know where they're not a good team, 269 00:09:56,079 --> 00:09:58,359 Speaker 14: and uh just didn't just didn't hit our boxes. 270 00:09:58,439 --> 00:10:01,039 Speaker 2: Other than the obvious physical skills that they have. What 271 00:10:01,279 --> 00:10:04,519 Speaker 2: makes those two guys, Nikola and Cop specifically so good. 272 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:04,838 Speaker 3: Oh. 273 00:10:04,919 --> 00:10:06,519 Speaker 9: I just think the time that they have with the 274 00:10:06,599 --> 00:10:07,519 Speaker 9: quarterback and the trust. 275 00:10:07,799 --> 00:10:07,958 Speaker 7: Uh. 276 00:10:08,079 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 14: I think he puts the ball where only they can 277 00:10:10,359 --> 00:10:11,799 Speaker 14: go get it and they know where you know it's 278 00:10:11,839 --> 00:10:14,159 Speaker 14: gonna be. So Uh, they have a good chemistry and 279 00:10:14,239 --> 00:10:16,999 Speaker 14: good time and just a good setup of how they 280 00:10:17,159 --> 00:10:18,879 Speaker 14: you know, run their plays off of the play action. 281 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,799 Speaker 14: Uh try to get you They do a good job 282 00:10:21,839 --> 00:10:24,519 Speaker 14: of whether we're matching them with a big personnel trying 283 00:10:24,519 --> 00:10:25,239 Speaker 14: to take their tots in. 284 00:10:25,319 --> 00:10:27,359 Speaker 9: That just just a good scheme. 285 00:10:27,359 --> 00:10:29,279 Speaker 2: Now you trying to struggle the last couple of weeks 286 00:10:29,319 --> 00:10:32,279 Speaker 2: with with take away you guys face some good receivers 287 00:10:32,279 --> 00:10:34,399 Speaker 2: and the quarterbacks. Is there a way to solve that 288 00:10:34,519 --> 00:10:37,519 Speaker 2: problem or is it just the situation is what it is. 289 00:10:37,839 --> 00:10:39,838 Speaker 14: No, I think like with today, with the team like that, 290 00:10:39,879 --> 00:10:42,718 Speaker 14: we just have to force some in obvious passing situations. 291 00:10:42,719 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 14: And like I said, they didn't have enough third downs 292 00:10:44,759 --> 00:10:46,639 Speaker 14: to where they had to draw back pass. We could 293 00:10:46,639 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 14: get some pass rush from that aspect. They were just 294 00:10:49,519 --> 00:10:51,879 Speaker 14: you know, in control of the game and so we 295 00:10:51,959 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 14: just had the four teams to get you know, more 296 00:10:53,999 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 14: passing situations. You know, whether it was last week when 297 00:10:56,479 --> 00:10:58,239 Speaker 14: they were in passing situations. We got a lot of 298 00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:02,039 Speaker 14: sacks and so you just have to capitalize, put pressure. 299 00:11:01,759 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 9: On them, and then on the back end make some places. 300 00:11:03,719 --> 00:11:05,519 Speaker 4: You got a long touchdown pass, were just trying to 301 00:11:05,519 --> 00:11:06,519 Speaker 4: go for the ball and missed it. 302 00:11:06,599 --> 00:11:11,838 Speaker 14: That was yeah, yeah, I mean zero coverage one on one, 303 00:11:12,079 --> 00:11:13,999 Speaker 14: no man's laying uh and that's just on me. 304 00:11:14,039 --> 00:11:15,399 Speaker 9: You gotta find a way to make that play. 305 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 12: Some of the talks on the sideline or you know, 306 00:11:17,879 --> 00:11:20,838 Speaker 12: whatever you're running through mentally, how do you process what's 307 00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:23,239 Speaker 12: going on there for nearly three quarters when it seems 308 00:11:23,239 --> 00:11:24,119 Speaker 12: like they're having their way. 309 00:11:24,959 --> 00:11:26,919 Speaker 14: I wouldn't say so. I mean, I think we were resilient. 310 00:11:27,039 --> 00:11:29,599 Speaker 14: I think, you know, we gave ourselves a chance. And 311 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 14: that's what the league is about. It's about, you know, 312 00:11:31,479 --> 00:11:34,239 Speaker 14: having an opportunity to win at the end. We have 313 00:11:34,319 --> 00:11:36,879 Speaker 14: to find a way to capitalize. So we're not always 314 00:11:36,879 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 14: in that situation to put pressure on the offense where 315 00:11:39,439 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 14: they feel like, you know, they have to win a 316 00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:43,999 Speaker 14: game and a two minute drive. We have various opportunities, 317 00:11:44,039 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 14: you know, as a defense to come out, make stops, 318 00:11:47,079 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 14: put a little pressure on him. 319 00:11:48,119 --> 00:11:50,559 Speaker 6: We just didn't stop to pass down. How much of 320 00:11:50,959 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 6: that was just kind of him being him, just you know, 321 00:11:53,039 --> 00:11:55,639 Speaker 6: capitalizing on the opportunities and seeing the opportunity. 322 00:11:55,839 --> 00:11:58,999 Speaker 14: Yeah, like I said, I think you know, gave up 323 00:11:58,999 --> 00:12:01,399 Speaker 14: one drive second when we were you know, in a 324 00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:01,919 Speaker 14: bad situation. 325 00:12:01,959 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 9: As a defense, it's not any excuses. 326 00:12:03,479 --> 00:12:05,399 Speaker 14: That's our job is, you know, when we get turnovers, 327 00:12:05,439 --> 00:12:07,718 Speaker 14: whatever it is, penalties, whoever we get the ball, is 328 00:12:07,759 --> 00:12:08,759 Speaker 14: to go out there. 329 00:12:09,079 --> 00:12:09,799 Speaker 9: And make the play. 330 00:12:09,959 --> 00:12:12,039 Speaker 14: And so we did, and they did a good job 331 00:12:12,079 --> 00:12:14,719 Speaker 14: of setting up a play action play action pass getting 332 00:12:14,719 --> 00:12:17,919 Speaker 14: the score on me and like I said, just driving 333 00:12:17,919 --> 00:12:19,919 Speaker 14: the ball, just having an opportunity to not get him 334 00:12:19,959 --> 00:12:22,519 Speaker 14: in a lot of third down situations. Like I said, 335 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:23,999 Speaker 14: I said it in the beginning of the week, you 336 00:12:23,999 --> 00:12:25,919 Speaker 14: know when they could run the ball early on first down. 337 00:12:26,079 --> 00:12:27,999 Speaker 9: This offense, that's just what they're predicated off. 338 00:12:27,919 --> 00:12:28,999 Speaker 5: Of from front to back. 339 00:12:29,119 --> 00:12:31,919 Speaker 12: Is there ever such as being a little too aggressive 340 00:12:31,959 --> 00:12:32,799 Speaker 12: in an offense. 341 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 9: Like this sort of attack that No, I think, you know, 342 00:12:36,199 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 9: DC did a good game plan. 343 00:12:37,359 --> 00:12:38,999 Speaker 14: You have to be aggressive, you know, especially with the 344 00:12:39,079 --> 00:12:41,399 Speaker 14: veteran quarterback.
