1
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: Start discouraged. We've got fifteen more games to play.

2
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 2: We've got a game this weekend, so it's another opportunity

3
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 2: and a divisional opponent, a good opponent on the road,

4
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 2: So I mean, you know, it'll be us kind of

5
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 2: against everybody going in there, So I think that it'll

6
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 2: be a big challenge for us.

7
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,319
Speaker 1: Do you think the attention to detail, like you guys

8
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: at the.

9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: Level, I think there's good and there's bad, you know,

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: and I think early in the game, I think we

11
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: need to be a little bit more attention to detail,

12
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 2: and that's something we're gonna, you know, do our best

13
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 2: to do this weekend and continuing as the season goes.

14
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: Ball security obviously is the is one of the biggest things.

15
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 2: That's I think the supreme attention to detail, and we

16
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 2: got to be, you know, really locked in on that.

17
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: So we need to be better. And you know, there's

18
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: there's good and there's things that we need to obviously

19
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 2: work on and can to get better at. Basically penalty

20
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: a lot of your drives, how do you come back? Yeah,

21
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 2: I think it's just locking in on every single play,

22
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: like thinking about every single.

23
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: Plays like this one.

24
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: You know, it's for the game almost like you know,

25
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 2: we're getting at the end of the game and getting

26
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 2: those situations, but like the second quarter, you know, the

27
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 2: twenty fifth player of the game, Like you got to

28
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: think of that play like the last play at the

29
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 2: same time, you know what I mean, Like you have

30
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 2: to kind of be locked in the whole game, and

31
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 2: I think all our guys are definitely going to be

32
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: trying to try to do that at each and every play.

33
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 2: The guys, I mean, obviously you've got to start with

34
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: their front.

35
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: Their front is big, physical.

36
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 2: And attacking nature, and you know, they they cause a

37
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: lot of disruption, a lot of problems. They thrive off,

38
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: you know, causing turnovers, which obviously in the first start

39
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 2: of the start of the year, we haven't been great yet.

40
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be a big challenge for us starting

41
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: out with that front because they just they caused so

42
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 2: many problems in the pocket and the run game movement

43
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,839
Speaker 2: and and then just ball security. I mean, that would

44
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,119
Speaker 2: be the biggest thing because they caused a lot of turnovers.

45
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 1: It's a pretty energetic but he was pretty down a

46
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah.

47
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 2: I actually talked to him on Monday, and UH told

48
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 2: him a similar story to me. Actually, the third game

49
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: of my career is the first game I'm starting. Antonio

50
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: Gates was I was backing him up basically, but he

51
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 2: got hurt. I was starting. I had a pretty good

52
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 2: game playing Indianapolis Colts. We have a two minute drive.

53
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: We're down three or four, maybe two, and all we

54
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: need is a feel go. I run a really good route.

55
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 2: There's about a minute left in the game. I catch

56
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: the ball and I kind of get in the open field.

57
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: I make the first guy I missed, but I'm looking

58
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 2: at the next guy and not thinking about what's going on,

59
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: and the ball gets poked out from behind, and actually

60
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 2: I lost the game for our team, you know, in

61
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: a two minute drive situation. That was my rookie year,

62
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 2: third game of the year, you know, and really woke

63
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: me up to kind of this level and humbled me

64
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 2: a lot, and I learned a lot, and I you know,

65
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 2: realized that I needed to hold on the ball a

66
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: little bit tighter. So I kind of conveyed that to

67
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: him that I mean, I'm going on my eighth year now,

68
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: and I think I've only had like one other fumble

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: and maybe eight years, and that fumble might be a

70
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 2: little questionable lot. We can go back on the table

71
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: and look at that one. But you know, Pop's a

72
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: great player and we need him. He's gonna learn from this,

73
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: He's gonna learn a lot from it. I enjoy going

74
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: out there and compete with him. He's done a lot

75
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 2: of great things for us, and I know he will

76
00:03:58,480 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 2: continue to which nice.

77
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: I had a good game.

78
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually had my first touchdown the next game,

79
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: and uh, I had a pretty solid game. It was

80
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 2: definitely unmotivating factor, you know that week, it was. I

81
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: was excited to get back out there by Sunday.

82
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: You know him, to expect him to I do.

83
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,679
Speaker 2: He's a he's a good, good dude, and he works

84
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 2: really hard and I know he takes pride in what

85
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 2: he does, and so I know he'll be He'll be

86
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 2: ready to go.

87
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: Under your numbers person.

88
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: Top of any league.

89
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: What do you attribute that?

90
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if I attribute to anything in particular,

91
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 2: but just you know, continuing to work, continuing to go

92
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 2: at it. You know, I'm not I'm not like crazy

93
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: concerned about all that, you know. I think the biggest

94
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 2: thing for me is just trying to find a way

95
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 2: to win these football games. I mean, that's that's really

96
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 2: my main focus. I'm not really worried about all the numbers,

97
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: but we just got to.

98
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: Find with that's kind of countries for turnovers, block defenses

99
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: do that. But as far as you look at this game,

100
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: lay the left, dude, you guys played a fairly clean game.

101
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: What are your your chances win? I think ain't some

102
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: one played clean game and your chances I want to

103
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: go up a lot.

104
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 2: So that's any time in this league, and I mean

105
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 2: there's a good opponent and a good team, but you know,

106
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: anytime you play a clean game, we're definitely gonna put.

107
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: Ourselves in a good position to win. How do you

108
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: like this offenses danity to be? Do you feel like

109
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: you've had a chance to establish it at all these

110
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: first companies? Probably not.

111
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: I like what we want.

112
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 1: We want to be more balanced. We have no overrow

113
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: football and we wanted to.

114
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: You know, getting behind I think is also you know,

115
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 2: that's that's on us as an offense, not scoring and

116
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 2: kind of playing from a little bit of ahead or

117
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 2: a close game. I mean, we've kind of been behind,

118
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 2: so we've kind of to push the tinpole a little

119
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 2: bit and throw the pole a little bit more so,

120
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 2: We're not exactly where probably where we want to be,

121
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: but we're striving every day to kind of kind of

122
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 2: get there, I guess
