WEBVTT - Press Pass: Fletcher Cox

0:00:03.840 --> 0:00:10.920
<v Speaker 1>If he didn't do that with Rodgers and the guys

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:13.319
<v Speaker 1>that have offenses, he's still surprised to City countrys or

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:15.159
<v Speaker 1>heever right now, I mean, I don't even look at

0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the struggles. I look at you know, I think they're

0:00:16.840 --> 0:00:19.759
<v Speaker 1>a really good football team. And uh, I mean it

0:00:20.000 --> 0:00:22.200
<v Speaker 1>shows on tape. I mean the games that they're that

0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:25.000
<v Speaker 1>they've lost in the last few weeks. Is besides, I

0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:27.240
<v Speaker 1>think the game on Siurday night, they were all really

0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 1>close games. So you know, Green Bay, the Packers. You know,

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it's still a really good football team. Struggled

0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 1>early in the years as he looked for like h

0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Rogers Row used to say, where he still make plays.

0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>He made plays with his feet. He still make those

0:00:41.520 --> 0:00:44.400
<v Speaker 1>those throws that still still make you open your out

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 1>and say, wow, you know they didn't really make that throw.

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>He's still good throwing the ball on the run. I

0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>think enough for what I've seen so far. So I mean,

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>like you said, again, man, I think it's that's still

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.160
<v Speaker 1>a really good football team. It's like every week you

0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>sort of get a guy who can extend plays. Is

0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Aaron the Beast did that? Is he's still just a

0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 1>little bit better than everybody else. I think this week

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:06.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a'd be a tougher challenge than last week.

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean, honestly, I think, you know, with his his

0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>mobility to move around the pocket and throw the ball

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 1>in the run, I think it'll be a bit bigger

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 1>challenge this week. And we just have to do a

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 1>good job at you know, I'm containing the football. Um,

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.479
<v Speaker 1>make sure we you know, don't turn into a seven

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 1>on seven deal. He said, a little bit easier for

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:26.200
<v Speaker 1>you guys because they've struggled so much in the running game,

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:31.600
<v Speaker 1>receivers in the backfield, not they're typical backs. Does that

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 1>make it a little easier for the Trump Oh? No,

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 1>nothing is easier than in the NFL. I mean I

0:01:36.280 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>think nothing comes easy. I think they're still going to

0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:39.640
<v Speaker 1>try to come in and you know, try to get

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.160
<v Speaker 1>success running football. Um. I know they they're down a

0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 1>few backs, but like I said, man, I think they're

0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>still gonna try to come in and try to get

0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:49.320
<v Speaker 1>some balance, and uh, you know we have to sit

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 1>the tempo and stop that and not let them get balanced.

0:01:51.920 --> 0:02:00.440
<v Speaker 1>Um you think the down right, I guess. So does

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 1>that help you guys conference wise? No one to just

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 1>lay football eventially basically going year and you know what

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:09.679
<v Speaker 1>you can do. Yes, of course I think and I

0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:11.800
<v Speaker 1>think number number one what's helped us as you know,

0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:14.679
<v Speaker 1>the home crowd, they've been really loud and and um

0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:16.240
<v Speaker 1>you know where the quarterback can make a lot of

0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:18.919
<v Speaker 1>reads and um just make it hard for him to hear.

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 1>But just going back to shutting those quarterbacks down. I

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>just think we you know, I think that's the temple

0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:26.560
<v Speaker 1>that we play that at home is you know a

0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:28.040
<v Speaker 1>little different than we play on the road, and we

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>have to match that. You know, we gotta go back

0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and match that. We gotta be able to play you know,

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:32.840
<v Speaker 1>on the road just as well as we play at home.

0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:35.240
<v Speaker 1>But um, I know we're all looking forward to coming back.

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.120
<v Speaker 1>UM two, you know, back to the link on on

0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Monday night, Monday Night football. You know everybody's gonna be hyped.

0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>They're coming off a loss. We're coming off a loss.

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be you know, which team wanted the most.

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:50.239
<v Speaker 1>Were still in the next um poste, the possibility to

0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 1>still there for you encouraging and those things, especially with

0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:57.000
<v Speaker 1>for your next six being home, that you guys are

0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 1>still with this and nothing that you know just got

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>to play a week, play a week. Yeah, I mean

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>you astually, I think our main focus is basically too

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.600
<v Speaker 1>to take it one week at a time and you know,

0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:07.960
<v Speaker 1>just worry about the next opponent, you know, get you know,

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 1>let's take Seattle. Okay, that game was played on Sunday.

0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's take that, watch that tape, review the mistakes, and

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 1>let's not try to go out and let's not go

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>out and make those mistakes that we made. But moving forward,

0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:18.760
<v Speaker 1>just taking to one game at a time, and it's

0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:20.800
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna start at practice. You know, are we getting

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 1>better in practice? Are we competing in practice? Are you

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 1>know we're holding each other countable and practice and you

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:26.560
<v Speaker 1>know those type of things that's gonna help us win

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:30.080
<v Speaker 1>on Monday. Well, you're reporting ten times in the last

0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 1>seven games with the defense that's give it up a

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.560
<v Speaker 1>score right after either the offensive especial teams that's gotten

0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:37.320
<v Speaker 1>the score. How important is it to kind of keeps

0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 1>up amentum going? And you know we're when the team

0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>is scoring and not allowing to drive the score and

0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>drive right after that. Well, we just have to minimize it,

0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, just we got we got to correct ourselves.

0:03:47.720 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think that you know, when we're playing

0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 1>the football that we can play and the players. I

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:54.440
<v Speaker 1>know that we have the group that the group of

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 1>guys is on that defense when we're playing and at

0:03:57.560 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>our top level. And you know, I don't really don't

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>think you know, anybody can you know, can affect you know,

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 1>you know what what we do. But you know, just

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, we just have to be We just got

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:07.960
<v Speaker 1>to go out and get three and als, get them

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.120
<v Speaker 1>in third down situations and you know, get off the

0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:13.680
<v Speaker 1>field just in general. Fletch, you guys have been so

0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:18.159
<v Speaker 1>successful at how playing defense. It's been good at times

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.159
<v Speaker 1>on the road, but not quite it the same. Can

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:24.720
<v Speaker 1>you put your finger on anything, I can't put them

0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:26.320
<v Speaker 1>really put my finger on it. I just know that,

0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, just sometimes it's just a little things, you know,

0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 1>just a little things, you know, um, you know, just

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:34.400
<v Speaker 1>unusual things. Um. You know, we just have to just

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>keep you know, um going out and and and and

0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:40.560
<v Speaker 1>get better as as a whole defense. Um really as

0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:42.840
<v Speaker 1>a team on the road and you know, you know,

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:44.880
<v Speaker 1>get row win because because like I said, if you

0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:46.680
<v Speaker 1>want to be a good team, you know, you gotta

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>be able to win, you know, on the road and

0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.200
<v Speaker 1>that's something that we haven't really you know, being able

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:53.039
<v Speaker 1>to do the last few road games. But I know

0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 1>at one point of time we'll get it turned around.

0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, grow Na
