1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Dexter, How hard did you take this personally because Daniel

00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: and you are so close.

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 2: Uh, definitely hard. But I've been a part of his business,

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 2: just like last year and they traded my best friend

5
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:17,479
Speaker 2: in the middle of the season. It's part of the

6
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 2: business and I and I understand that part of it.

7
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 2: And like I said before, but I feel for Daniel,

8
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: works hard, a great dude, relatable.

9
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, this sucks for What about the opportunity that Tommy gets? Now?

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 1: How do you view that?

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 2: I'm excited about that. You know, he's he showed his

12
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 2: flashes last year obviously, and you know I have trusted him,

13
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 2: and you know, I trust in what the team has

14
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: UH see for him. So I'm excited.

15
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 1: You know the pulse of this locker room as well

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: as anyone. Would you say that it's still in solid

17
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: order right now?

18
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: I say so. I haven't seen a flinch. I haven't

19
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 2: seen any discouragement, having seen guys fall apart, and that

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 2: starts to happen first, so and I haven't seen it.

21
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: Drew settlemented AGI that Daniel's handling this as well as

22
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: can possibly be expected given the situation coming down there,

23
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: like appropar to spading in the meetings.

24
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 2: How would you say you've seen him rest? I say

25
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 2: the same way. He still have a smile on his face. Uh,

26
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: you know, And I told him, you'll get another opportunity

27
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 2: where and wherever it is, You're gonna take advantage of it.

28
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 2: But you know, I'm excited for Tommy and and this

29
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: should be good.

30
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: You talked a little bit about the business aspect of

31
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 1: the decision. Is there a little irritation amongst the players

32
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: because it wasn't purely a football decision.

33
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 2: I don't really know what decision it was. But at

34
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: the end of the day's business, Like your boss wasn't

35
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: happy with your performance or what you've been doing, and

36
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: so somebody else got to do the job. And just

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: like any other job in this world, that same shit

38
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: will happen. So it's the business.

39
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: Dexter to what your approach with seven games to go.

40
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 2: Prove myself proved this defense, and prove this defense is

41
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: a great defense. And you know, rally alone the offense

42
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: and you know, encourage and keep the confidence.

43
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: Well, you know, the fans sometimes start looking at next year,

44
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: they start looking at the draft and stuff. How do

45
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,119
Speaker 1: you kind of weed that all out and stay focused

46
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: on just try to win football games.

47
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,119
Speaker 2: That's how you look hurt. That's how you get hurt

48
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: if you look onward. I think you got to be

49
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: present in the moment and every moment you're in and

50
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 2: right now I'm talking to the media and after this,

51
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna eat, so be present in those moments, and

52
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: that's that's just how you got to go about.

53
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: You often hear you know, coaches in particular, saying we

54
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 1: need this move because it gives us the best chance

55
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: to win.

56
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 2: Do you guys feel like you're in the best position.

57
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: Right now to win?

58
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 2: You know, I trust what the coaches think, and they

59
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 2: think Tommy is the best way to go. So I'm

60
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: gonna rally alone that and I'm gonna play my heart

61
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: for Tommy. It's like I played my hardest for Daniel

62
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: and whoever it was after that, Jackson feeling a ship

63
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: them a lot.

64
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: Maybe if we, you know, we look for ourself for

65
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: other people we have, maybe when I.

66
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 2: Got to this spot on Daniel, uh yeah, it's a

67
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: team effort. Yeah, of course we're losing, and you know

68
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: he's a quarterback. So I think that's just how the

69
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: business goes and the nature of it. You know, he's

70
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: he's done good jobs to help us win games, and

71
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 2: defense haven't helped him. So that's just how this game

72
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 2: go
