1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 1: Tough, hard fog game on the road. It's a division 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: team I should have played a few weeks ago. Um, 3 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:09,719 Speaker 1: just made a few more plays than they did that 4 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: we protected the ball well and then some critical players 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: there at the end that we made and UM, you know, 6 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: proud of the guys the way they compete it. So 7 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: it was a good win. Just Okay, that micro room 8 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: sounds like everybody's pretty hyped up in there. Beat the alternative. Yeah, 9 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: you've got a pretty good dumb um information that on 10 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: the you know, the challenge. Yeah, down the end there, Yeah, 11 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: I'd say that again really all Europe. I've mentioned these 12 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: guys before, but but Kate and Tie, Um, you know, 13 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 1: they're really two guys that I lean on a lot 14 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: during the week in terms of management, clock management, fourth 15 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: down decisions over time decisions. Um, you know that fourth 16 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: down that we we went for there, that was already 17 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: you know, we knew we would go for that in 18 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: that particular situation, you know, on Wednesday, after the morning 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: meeting that I have with those guys. UM, So I 20 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: thought everybody contributed to the wind. Those two guys were 21 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: certainly a big part of it. UM to ivy leaguers, 22 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: So try to listen to the ivy leaguers. The performance 23 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: tonight at the end of he got got hit in 24 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 1: the eye as well. Just his toughness and roll in 25 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: this game. Um, I think he's consistently improved throughout the year. 26 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, obviously I've said this before. I'm glad we 27 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: drafted him. I'm glad he's part of the team. I 28 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: think he's gotten better each week. Um, it's a big 29 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: part of our defense. What did you think of his 30 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: performance tonight in particular? But I thought, obviously a lot 31 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: of juice. That play that he made down there when 32 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: they were backed up kind of changed the tide a 33 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: little bit early part of the game. Um, you know, 34 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: he's one of our you knows, very talented player and 35 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: he played like it. Ryan, don't be long astressed to 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: us that this was a port game, because it was 37 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: in the next game. You guys weren't making anything more 38 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: of that. Your emotions right now kind of indicative of that. 39 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: You try to stay consistent, you know, enjoy this one 40 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: here on the on the way home, and then get 41 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: ready to we'll play another good team. That's what you 42 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: gotta be. I mean, I just don't believe in riding 43 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: roller coasters in this league. Um, I did when I 44 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: was younger a little bit. I wrote it, and it 45 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: doesn't do anybody any good. There's you know, the only 46 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: thing you can control is what's right in front of you. Um, 47 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: So the outcome of last week or two weeks ago 48 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: really has no bearing on what you need to do 49 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: for the upcoming week, just like this really will have 50 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: no bearing on what we need to do next week. 51 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: I know it's a not flashy, but that's just what 52 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: I believe him. What did you think of the goal? 53 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: I stand there at the end. It was awesome. Yeah, 54 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: great play, MoMA Cloud. That's some pressure. Um yeah, I 55 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: mean they did a great job. I'd say the whole 56 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: team did a really good job, from the coaches to 57 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: the players executing. Um. Players fought, competed hard. Coaches and 58 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: other coordinators did a really good job of calling the 59 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: game or the way we needed to call it. And again, 60 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: like I talked about this last week, it's four or 61 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: five plays that it comes down to, and you know, 62 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: our guys give him credit. They made those plays. Kean said. 63 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: Who was asked about playing the prime time earlier in 64 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: the week, and he said prime time likes me. Did 65 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: you did you sense increased? Who's that coach Deon? Like 66 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: you know prime time? Oh yeah, coach Deon yea Um, 67 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,839 Speaker 1: I mean, look, he's played in two prime time games 68 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Will kind of slow the role on 69 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: that one. You got any questions? I was gonna ask 70 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: about your challenging to fumble with decks, but it sounds 71 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: like you answered that got you what? Um? What did 72 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: you see on that last defensive play? This talked about 73 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: a lot that Washington wasn't happy with. No call there. 74 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: It's being talked about a lot on the postgame show. 75 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: What did you see from your perspective? It was good play? 76 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: Good play? You play week to week. But how badly 77 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: does this team need to really get back in the 78 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: wind column too to have a positive thing going forward here? 79 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: I mean how badly was that needed to stop some 80 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: more men going the other way? That was coming together way? Yeah? 81 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: I think it's really just week to week. I mean 82 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: there's abbs and flows of every season. Um. I've said 83 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: it before a DC alternative. Um, you know, it's good 84 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: to see smiles on the guy's faces. That's why you 85 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: do this to compete and try to get the outcome 86 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: you're hoping for, and you know sometimes you don't. UM, 87 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: But that's not for lack of doing things the right way, 88 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: coming in, practicing, higher preparing the right way. UM. So 89 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: obviously you you enjoy the result of winning. That's why 90 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: we all do this, is to try to win. UM. 91 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: But these guys have worked hard, you know, since we've 92 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: been here, and to try to remain consistent during those times. 93 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: That's not always easiest for you know, twenty three year olds. 94 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm proud of the way they compete 95 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: it and just played the next play tonight. Did you 96 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: learn something then through these tough times that they did 97 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: do things right? Yeah? That they just focus on today. 98 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: You know. That's again we still have ways to go here. 99 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: We're building as a team. UM. But I think they 100 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: try to do everything the right way that we asked 101 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: them to do and stay consistent with their approach and 102 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: come in with positive atitudes and get ready for the 103 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: upcoming opponent. Get hurt on that last kick off, he's fine. Yeah, 104 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: what they told me. He's good. You said that fourth 105 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: down decision you've made earlier in the week, why was 106 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: you know you have a question to after this last 107 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: game against them, about your confidence in Indianiel and then 108 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: you go for a dare on fourth and what was it? Nine? Yeah, 109 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: I was questioned about my confidence in Daniel by who right? Oh, 110 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: I have confidence in Daniel I've had since I've been here, 111 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: So uh no, I mean each game is different, decision 112 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: making processes are different. We talked about those things on 113 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Wednesday and Thursday. I'd say, you know, we spend a 114 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: lot of time meeting times, so when we get to 115 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: the game, I can live with those decisions because they're 116 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: you know, we've we've studied them, we've discussed them. Um. 117 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: You know, it's what we believe in to do for 118 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: that particular game, and you know, if they work, it's 119 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, a great call. If they don't, they don't. 120 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: But I can live with the process of how we 121 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: try to come to those conclusions each week because of 122 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: the time spent. And I'd say the um, those two 123 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: guys do a great job Tye and Kid, and they 124 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time on it, um and we 125 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of good discussions. You know, I might 126 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: not always agree with them on Wednesday and Thursday, but 127 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: we keep on talking about it and going through certain 128 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: situations and um, and I said, we try to be 129 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: as detailed and throw as we can after you get yeah, yeah, 130 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: you carried through that moment. What did you see? I 131 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: saw an explosive downhill, powerful runner and I was proud 132 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: of sect with the kid. Good mor What made you what? 133 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: What made you talk about? What? That long drive? Just 134 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: like which one the nine? Like what you saw? Just 135 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: a lot of good execution. I mean we made some 136 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: big third downs. Um, I thought Richie and Daniel stood 137 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: on a couple of those. They had some guys coming 138 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: off the edge Free stood in and made some really 139 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: tight throws. Richie made some good third downs. We hit 140 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: the fourth down to nine. I thought Calfica called a 141 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: really good play there. I wanted to that was Kwan right? 142 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: Was that k one? Yeah? That was that? That drive? 143 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I thought that was good. Were just kind 144 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: of shifted and Daniel went out. So I'd say a 145 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: lot of good design by the coaches, good play calls 146 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: by Mike, But always the credit goes to the players 147 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: and executing hard and hard to have those drives. I 148 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: don't know how many plays it was, but um, how many? 149 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: How many? Yeah? I mean that's that's hard to do. 150 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: Um So, credit players, what does this hasn't had a 151 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: winning season and they have had five straight losing seasons. 152 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: I should say, you guys have at least eight when 153 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: you won't have a losing season this year. What does 154 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: that mean to you? And what does it mean that 155 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: you're very close now to making the playoffs? I don't know. 156 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: I just get ready to play was it Minnesota this week? 157 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: Saturday and Saturday? Yeah, it doesn't mean anything right now. 158 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: I'm just happy we won this game, and you know, 159 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: get ready to play Minnesota. What made you decided during 160 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: the week that fourth time that that was a go? 161 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: That was great? We do that every week every single week. 162 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: So you don't know when those things are gonna come 163 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: up or how things are going to evolve, or you know, 164 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: do you go for it on fourth and three? You 165 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: do this or you try to make like there's so 166 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: many different things that come up. Do you have discussions 167 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: during the game. Yeah, And I'll have a line that 168 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: goes to special teams. I have a line that goes 169 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: to offense, I have a line that goes to defense, 170 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: and I have a line that goes to Kate and tie. 171 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: Um So, again, the amount of discussion and research that 172 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: I'd say the two of them do and then sit 173 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: down with me and we spent a lot of time 174 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: on it. UM. You know, there's i'd say a lot 175 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: of numbers and percentages, and then there's also real conversation 176 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: about you know, the players or the matchups. So you 177 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: kind of combined everything. I don't think you just take 178 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: one thing and say this is what do I think? 179 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 1: There's you gotta have a feel for the game. You 180 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: gotta have a feel for your opponent. You gotta have 181 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: a feel for the matchup. You gotta have a feel 182 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: for the weather if something's different. So we're always in 183 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: constant communication and we just try to do what's best 184 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: for us. What does what does this wind tell you 185 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: about the makeup of your team? I don't I'm starting 186 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: to win the game. I mean I've I think I 187 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: got to feel for the makeup of our team, you know, 188 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: since we've been here in O t A s and 189 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: training camp and all the games we had. UM, I 190 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: think they just try to play the next play. They're 191 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: a group of hard working guys that focus on what's 192 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: in front of them. That's UM a bunch of good 193 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: guys to work with,
