1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:02,640 Speaker 1: I'm see the uh getting on the same page. It's 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: a lot of its wound be really important. How's that 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:08,319 Speaker 1: process gone. I think it's going well. You know, I think, um, yeah, 4 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: it's always always important. Um, you know, on the same 5 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: page as your offensive line, especially the center. A lot 6 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: of communication, a lot of uh talking, just making sure, 7 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 1: um you know, we're picking up blitzes. And I think 8 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,279 Speaker 1: it's been great going against our style of defense, a 9 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: lot of different looks, a lot of blitzes, and so 10 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: just um, you know, talking everything through and um, you 11 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: know there's some some things you kind of you kind 12 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: of learn, uh just hey, we didn't have a word 13 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: for that, or we didn't have a way of doing that. 14 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 1: Just making sure we're all seeing things the same way, 15 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: so I can kind of tell him and he can 16 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 1: he can relate to the rest of the offensive line. 17 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: But it's uh, I think it's going really smooth and 18 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: and uh you know, um, you know, I think every 19 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: game each week, as you're watching film, will watch a 20 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: lot of films together, uh, and and get on the 21 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: same page. But you've got about two reeks and pats 22 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: so far. Um, how would you ifot you wait the 23 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: offensive planet, how they're starting to come together. Yeah, I 24 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: think they're doing a good job. And like I said, 25 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: just I think getting on the same page. Um. You know, 26 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: I think the most important thing for that offensive line 27 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: group is just their communication there, you know, understanding, um, 28 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: you know what the defense is doing for them to 29 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: build pass things off and and um just playing playing fast, 30 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: playing as a as one, uh in a sense and 31 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 1: sou But they're all working hard and they're all dialed 32 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: in and doing well. But that you've been through that 33 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: new offense, new coach thing before in the preseason. You 34 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,559 Speaker 1: want to play more in the preseason when you learning 35 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: a new offense to get comfortable or about the same 36 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 1: as at least you know what whatever coach thinks we need. 37 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think you want to be out there 38 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: and play and uh, um you know, just get a 39 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: feel for you know, him calling the plays and for 40 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: the game plan. And I think once you're playing against 41 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: a UM, you know, a new opponent, UM looks come 42 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: up and and different defenses and that you that you've 43 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: you been seeing in training camp and seeing in virtual 44 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: defense where you want to get you know, some reps 45 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: of those things and make sure everybody's on the same page. 46 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: So I think, uh, you know, excited about to get 47 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: it out there and playing. How do you balance so 48 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: the the the potential for injury against in in preseason 49 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: in general for guys compared to how beneficial it could 50 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: be for you guys to have.
