1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,679 Speaker 1: I was waiting George, kind of a full banandine question. 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 2: You put this thing in perspective, what happened today? 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: Well, after having thirty minutes to think about it, I 4 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: would say not scoring any points in the second half 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: is really tough as an offense, especially when we expect 6 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: ourselves to be significantly better than that. Turn the ball 7 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: over three times to a very very dangerous quarterback with 8 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: a really good run game. As an offense, we really 9 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: want to take the game in our hands, and we 10 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 1: had to very every opportunity to blow that one out 11 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: and we didn't do that. So just very disappointed is 12 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: what I would say. 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 2: How much does it help that you guys will be 14 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 2: able to get back on. 15 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: The horse, you know, playing? The nice thing about football 16 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: is while each like each loss stings terribly, the nice 17 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: thing is usually got to play the following week, and 18 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: when you get to play on Thursday, if you dwell 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: on it for very long, you're just gonna put yourself 20 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: in a hole. So the fact that we're got to 21 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: play on Thursday, coach and is gonna have a great 22 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: game plan for us, and that's all that matters. 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 2: Sudden change is preached, like coaches always yours. Everybody's to 24 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 2: have a black field goal for a touchdown and then 25 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 2: moments later lose your kicker. How you know, how you 26 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 2: processed that in real time and how big was that? 27 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: Well, losing your kicker is huge, especially when you have 28 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: a guy who's good from what fifty seven yards? Fifty 29 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: six yards? So yeah, that that's tough. Jake's a hell 30 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: of a kicker, and we don't have that option, and 31 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: now you like, you're you have to get it to 32 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: what the twenty five yard line to kick whatever it 33 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: is out of no idea. Uh, that's tough. But I mean, 34 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: I think our special teams in our defense gave us 35 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: every opportunity today to win. And I mean, as an 36 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: offensive player has been for eight years, like I feel 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: like that one's mostly on us than anything else. Like 38 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: we have to finish drives with the not turn the 39 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: ball over with to make it ease on ourselves and 40 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: which we didn't. 41 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 3: Do today or a kind of lost in similar fashion 42 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: in the La Brams game. This game, is there any 43 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 3: doubt creeping in your mind or you get this since 44 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 3: from the team's mind about being able to kind of 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 3: close these games out as a team. 46 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: No, doubt, there's none of that. I would say that 47 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: we just have to go out and prove that we 48 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: can do it. You know, are there seasons like you know, 49 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: I've started seasons where we won all the games and 50 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: like we can figure it out how to wait win 51 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: dirty like really gross wins, they you still win. And 52 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: we haven't figured out how to do that yet as 53 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: a team, and we need to do that. So the 54 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: only way to get better at doing that stuff is 55 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: just to go out and do it and hopefully we 56 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: have an opportunity on Thursday. Hopefully it's not an ugly win. 57 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: Hopefully we go up there and we play not in 58 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: football talked about not finding your identity at a team 59 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: ger and that you. 60 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 3: Are, you're a couple of plays away from it. 61 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: Do you feel similarly not finding my identity? 62 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 3: I think you do. 63 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: Well. 64 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: I think, I mean the identity of the four nine 65 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: ers has always been that we're hard nos team that's 66 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: very physical. But I think it kind of goes into 67 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: her question, like we haven't won those gritty little games yet, 68 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: Like we we just haven't done that, and that's something 69 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: that we need to get better at. It's something that 70 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: we have to get done and the only way to 71 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: prove that is to do it on the football field 72 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: on a Thursday night or on a Sunday. So we're 73 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: just gonna try our best to do that. And the 74 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: thing is too like teams look like. The team that 75 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: you look like in September October will be significantly different 76 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: than November December. So we just had to try to 77 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: get better. Take one day at a time and get 78 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:26,839 Speaker 1: a little bit better every single day. 79 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: Being the leader that you are, how do you make 80 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: sure that Jordan doesn't put a loss like that on 81 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: himself being new to his rule, I. 82 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: Would just tell him to not put the blame on yourself, 83 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: like when you fumble, you turnovers, whatever it is you 84 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: miss a block, drop a pass, like your self talk. 85 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: It's kind of tough sometimes and so it's really good 86 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: to have people around you that can pick you back up. 87 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: And I think that JP is surrounded by guys that 88 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: he knows that it's not his fault. We all know 89 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: that it's not his fault. He's running his tail off 90 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: on every single play. Hey, stuff happens. You just got 91 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: to bounce back from you. Don't let think snow. You 92 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: get better the next day. 93 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 4: There's a couple of games now where you've had the 94 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 4: first half where you've had momentum rolling and it looks 95 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 4: like you guys can't get stopped, and then you come 96 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 4: out of half time and it's not quite as as 97 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 4: the momentum is different. Is there anything you can put 98 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 4: your finger on on what's going on? Is it over 99 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 4: confidence after the half? 100 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: Oh? 101 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say overconfidence. I know that we didn't score 102 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: any points the second half. I don't know what our 103 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: first drive was, but I feel like we were moving 104 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: the ball well like the whole day. But when you 105 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: end it with turnovers, it's just turnover on downs, interceptions, 106 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: fumble like whatever. It is like, it's just hard to 107 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: win football games when you play like that. And so, 108 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think all we have to do is 109 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: hold on to the football, run the ball really well, 110 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: and we're gonna be okay. Thanks guys,
