1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: Mac, it must feel a lot better waking up today

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 1: as opposed to last week after getting your first NFL win. Yeah,

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: it's definitely better than losing. So the blue you can

4
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 1: continue to do that. Does the twenty four hour rule

5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: work for wins and losses? So we're you know, as

6
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 1: far as you know looking at tape too soon? Um? Yeah,

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: I'd say just um, it depends that. You know, twenty

8
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: four hours is always good to just relax and just

9
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: recover your body and now move onto the next game

10
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: too quickly. I mean, it doesn't hurt to peak. It

11
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: some stuff on film and things like that, but I

12
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 1: just felt that you can keep it consistent feel twenty

13
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: four hours. But I feel were peaking. I have a

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: feeling you were peaking. Were you peaking? Honest? Yeah, I

15
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: definitely peak. So, Mac, I wanted to ask you after

16
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 1: the game you were talking about you felt like you

17
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: could push the ball downfield more so, I'm just curious,

18
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: are you passing up opportunities to take shots down the field?

19
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: M I wouldn't say that. I just think it goes

20
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: back to just me thinking to my rules. And there's

21
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: sometimes when the defense takes plays away, and that's why

22
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 1: we play. I mean, there's just they're good on defense too.

23
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I feel like you take

24
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: the three or four plays or whatever it might be,

25
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: whether it's a practice or a game, and you rewatch

26
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: them and you're like, Okay, I could have probably joined

27
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: that one. But at the end of the day, it's

28
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: about moving the ball and taking what the defense gives you.

29
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: And if they give you the deep shots, then take it.

30
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: If they give you the short then take the shorts.

31
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: So it's kind of just what the defense is doing. Really. Yeah,

32
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like that's got to be a

33
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: strong coaching point with Josh McDaniels and Bill obviously, because

34
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: I watch I watched a guy like Zach Wilson just

35
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: throwing you know, passes into team meetings where nobody's there,

36
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: And so I guess, do you feel like there's the

37
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: fear of throwing an interception or causing a critical mistake

38
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: is so wrong that you rather live on the side

39
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: of caution as opposed to the more riskier past that

40
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: maybe pay off a bigger dividends to you. Yeah, I

41
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: think just when you look at turnover statistics, team that

42
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: turns the ball over less usually wins. I don't know

43
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: what it is. It's pretty high though, percentage wise, so

44
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: just we have less turnovers in the other team, and

45
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: yesterday we definitely could have capitalized more on the turnovers

46
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: we got. But as long as you're ending every possession

47
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: in the kick and things will be moving in the

48
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: right direction. So that's kind of always what I've been taught.

49
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: But I think there may be some things that I

50
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: can adjust, and I will do that and just listen

51
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: to the feedback that I get because in the past,

52
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: obviously in college, is completely different game, and you know,

53
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: not to bring that up or anything, but it is

54
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: different here in the NFL. And if you kind of

55
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: just have to play possession football and try and just

56
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: stick to your rules and throws the open guy, it

57
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: shouldn't be that confusing or complic So like the example

58
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: I was going to use is um the double pass

59
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: to pass, you throw it to James, why he throws

60
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: it back? You throw it to John new Smith. And

61
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: on the on the television copy, Trent Green was talking

62
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: about a galore was was open and that should that

63
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: was a play that you could have made, but you

64
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: took the the shallow route with John new Smith. When

65
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: you went back and looked at the film, was at

66
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: an opportunity. If you had to do it over again,

67
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: you would have thrown it to a galore. Yeah, I think. Um,

68
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: but that type of play, it's just kind of hard

69
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: sometimes to you know, read it out as best as

70
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: you can because you catch the ball and there's no

71
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: one protecting not because they don't want to. It's it's

72
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: not part of the play. It's just a one and

73
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: done deal because I'm by myself when James threw it

74
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: back to me and so I just saw John new

75
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,839
Speaker 1: flash in front of me and got it out really quick. Um. Yeah,

76
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: I think if you go back and watch it, I

77
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: definitely could have held the ball and maybe even looked

78
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: before I caught it to see if there's anyone around me.

79
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: I just didn't have a good of awareness as I

80
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: should have had. But yeah, it's played like that where

81
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: you look at it and it was a good play

82
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: call and I could have definitely executed better. And there's

83
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: a few of those every practice, every game, and if

84
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: we can just get those out of there and then

85
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: everything will start kind of working in our favor. Talking

86
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: to Patriots quarterback Mac Jones and Mac. I'm just curious

87
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: because you you you know, Zack Wilson's on the other

88
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: side of it. He goes number two, you go number fifteen.

89
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: Are you one of those guys that looks at the

90
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: four guys that went in front of you and looks

91
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,799
Speaker 1: forward to playing each and every one of them, because

92
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: you know you all played this kid yesterday. Not really.

93
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: I think every week it's just focus on what I

94
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: can do and how I can be the best quarterback.

95
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: But I can be because it's really not you know,

96
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: you against the other person. It's just we're playing football,

97
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: and it's our offense against their defense, and then their

98
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: offense against our defense. So a lot of it's out

99
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: of our control and we just have to play together

100
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: and play complimentary football to where the offense is complimenting

101
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: the defense and vice versa. So I don't ever try

102
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: and look at it like that. I think it just

103
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: kind of goes back to execution and doing what I'm

104
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: supposed to do. I want to go back to something

105
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: you said a little bit of going He said, every

106
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: drive end with a kick, and obviously you know, field goal,

107
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: extra point, right, and even a punt. And I'm just

108
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 1: curious because you know, again, Zach, he ends up throwing

109
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: four interceptions yesterday. Is that just something that's been ingreened

110
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: in you as far as turnovers and you'd rather punt

111
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: than say, throw picks things like just is that just

112
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: a frame of mind for you? Yeah, I think that's

113
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: just an old saying in football, I guess, or some

114
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: coaches teach it. Sometimes you don't, but I just and

115
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: what I've been listening here and things like that, we

116
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: just want to control the ball, and we want to

117
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: in the possession in the kick and sometimes it's going

118
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: to be a punt. You want them all to be

119
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: extra points. That will be ideal when you say that.

120
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: But we have a good putter and we have a

121
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: good special team, so it's, you know, okay to punt.

122
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's also good to just

123
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: get it in the end zone or get the three

124
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: points because that's where it comes down to a scoring point.

125
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: And you know, just sitting there thinking about punting all

126
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: the time, you're just trying to execute the plays and

127
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 1: the points will come. Do you think sometimes that the

128
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: offense is a little too safe and too conservative? Um? Though,

129
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: I think just each week we have a we have

130
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: only been here for the preseason games and for the

131
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: two games we've played, and we've had a good plan

132
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: and obviously Josh has a really good job preparing all

133
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: of us, and we have a plan for what the

134
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: defense is going to give us, and we don't, um,

135
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: you know, over play or anything like that to expect

136
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: what they might do or what they think they're going

137
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: to do, and we just kind of stick to what

138
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: we do and he calls great plays and we got

139
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: to extually them better. And I think the offense when

140
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: we watched the film together, we're all going to say

141
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,799
Speaker 1: that we can definitely play better and execute the plays

142
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: that were called better, and we will. So we're talking

143
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: to Mac Jones, and Mac, I'm wondering, how quickly did

144
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: you realize it was probably a bad idea to jump

145
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: into that pile with Damien Harris crossing the goal and

146
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: when you looked around and saw your all your offensive

147
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: lineman doing the same thing, like where I'm just watching

148
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: that thing get out of there. Yeah. Um, I think honestly,

149
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: it was just a good run and good blocking and

150
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: then I just kind of stalled. Damian get a little

151
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: bit held up at like the half yard line, I

152
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: think you probably would have got in anyways, but I

153
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: just ran down there and shoved them in. But everyone

154
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: else is pushing too, so there was a giant team

155
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: effort like rugby or something, and just made it happen,

156
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: and it was. It was good to score m you know,

157
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: that's always what you're supposed to do on offense and

158
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: whether it's running, passing whatever, to try and get any

159
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: into get six points. You know. I gotta commend you though,

160
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: on the because that was the one, the one player

161
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: a lot of people talking about. I gotta command you

162
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: on the reverse block because most of the times MAC

163
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: like this, quarterbacks embarrassed themselves these with they fall on

164
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: the ground that the guy that they're trying to block

165
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 1: doesn't even like, you know, you know, notice that they're there.

166
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: They just kind of avoid them, right because they're just

167
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: in the way. You actually gotten the guy's way. Now,

168
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: it wasn't a bone crushing block, but you made a difference.

169
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: Was there any part of you that said problems should

170
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: just stay out of this one too? Um? Not really?

171
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: I mean the rule is the shot box rules in

172
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: between the tackle box. So I knew that I was

173
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: allowed to do it, and you know, maybe if I

174
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: was outside, I would definitely try to block them still

175
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: because that's who I was supposed to get. So I

176
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,439
Speaker 1: mean it's just part of the play. And um, we

177
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: did a good job in that play of KB just

178
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: running and making a play and when Alvin to line

179
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: selling the other play and then they slipped it back,

180
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: So um, it was just actually what executed. Um. Yeah,

181
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: I mean, whatever my job is to do on the play,

182
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm going to try and do it to help help

183
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: the team. So make one for four the first week

184
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: in the red zone, one for three yesterday, So you

185
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: guys are two for seven now in the year. So

186
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: in your opinion, what can be done, Like what is

187
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: it because I know I know some penalties, But what

188
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: can be done to be more efficient in the red

189
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: zone for you? But that's a good question. I mean

190
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: for me, it just goes back to maybe just executing

191
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: better during practice. I think we've definitely put an emphasis

192
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: on it and we've gotten more reps at it. And

193
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: just in the red zone, you have to be you

194
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: kind of have to flip the switch in your brain.

195
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: Not that you shouldn't be aware at all times during

196
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: the game, but once you get down there, it's everything's

197
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: a little tighter. I mean, the sidelines are obviously there.

198
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean the field gets tighter because of the yardage,

199
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: so there's not as much space to work with, and

200
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: sometimes that can be an issue. But I think it's

201
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: more just about us executing the plays that are called

202
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: and doing it against tighter looks and me making more

203
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: competitive throws and things like that. I don't think there's

204
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 1: any like big thing that we're missing. It's just little things.

205
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: So I think we'll definitely improve on that. This we

206
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 1: can practice. And the other thing is we can't be

207
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: so worried about the stats of it all. We just

208
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: have to act use the plays for what they are

209
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: and flip the switch in our brain just to be

210
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: ready in the red zone and kind of be alert

211
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: more so make I don't even know if you realize,

212
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,559
Speaker 1: because I didn't really realize until I saw as the

213
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: stat kind of after this game that in the red zone,

214
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: like you've yet to I think attempt to pass in

215
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: the end zone. We're even aware of that, like I

216
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: didn't because I didn't even recall that until you have

217
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: thought back on it. Um, Yeah, I think I think

218
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 1: it goes back to riding the ball well on which

219
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: we can do, and then we'll have those plays that

220
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: we need to get people in there and I need

221
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: to throw open the ball, and we've done that, so

222
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: it's not like the players aren't called. It's just sometimes

223
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: it's a little tirer down there, like I said, and

224
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: the competitive throws I need to make will be there,

225
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: and I can continue to practice those and work on

226
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: that because it's it's tight coverage in the NFL, and

227
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: you just have to continue to find ways to get

228
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: our playmate the ball because we have great still players,

229
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: good good running backs, good good tight ends, and good receivers.

230
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: So I don't know why um plays in a reason

231
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: to not get him the ball. It starts with me,

232
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: and they'll make plays and the run it outs they're

233
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: supposed to run, so they've done a good job and

234
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: I can do better. See that. That's kind of the

235
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: thing I think Patriot fans or even myself. You watch

236
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: the game and you're seeing you out there making the

237
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: right decisions. You're accurate, and when I see stacks like

238
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: that or I see you know the balls, you know,

239
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: check downs and things, I almost feel like they're not

240
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 1: letting you do this yet because you're young in your

241
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: career and I almost want to be like, go to

242
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels and just be like, hey, can I do this,

243
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: like let it, let me let it sling sling it

244
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: a little bit, right, because those kind of numbers almost

245
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 1: makes it feel like they're putting restrictions on you. Um No,

246
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: I don't think it's that. I mean, I think you display.

247
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: I said, just whatever they call, and they've called good

248
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: plays and Josh has done a good job preparing me

249
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: in the red zone, knowing what the other team is

250
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: going to do and stuff. So I definitely can just

251
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: have those conversations you can in that to him though,

252
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: that I can do better because I feel like it's

253
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: more on me than anybody else, and I can make

254
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: those type window throws and a half in the past,

255
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: and we can be better. So it's kind of just

256
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: isn't what it is, and we can obviously work on

257
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: it and maybe come up with different ways to have

258
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: some creativity or whatever just to get the offense to

259
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: come together in the red zone. And all right, here

260
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: we go, we're in the red zone. Let's flip the

261
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: switch or whatever, just to make sure that we're all

262
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: aware of the situation. So when when fellow rookie Romandre

263
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: Stevenson has a rough game and then doesn't, you know,

264
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: play in the next game, basically is um, you know

265
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: as deactivated. Do you you guys kind of talk at

266
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: all about the situation? Do you offer him any you know,

267
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: encouragement or anything like that. Yeah, I mean I think

268
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 1: mom and Drey is obviously super competitive and I don't

269
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: know if you know, I'm not in charge of and

270
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't, but obviously more works hard every day. Um,

271
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 1: he's a rookie, he's young, just like me, and but

272
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: he's he's a hard worker, so that'll pay off in

273
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 1: the long run. And you know, I just always try

274
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: and keep it loose with him. Um, you know, we

275
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: always whatever we're talking about, what it's on Saturday, he's

276
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: talking about the college football games or whatever. Just having

277
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: this conversation and keeping it loose and relax is cool

278
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: with all the rookies, and um, I feel like we're

279
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 1: really close, all of us, and we'll get better together.

280
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: And we've all been working hard. So that's all you

281
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: can ask for is just are working your effort and

282
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: then everything else will just take care of itself, playing time,

283
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: all the other stuff. So I think we all have

284
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: a good understanding of that. Okay, So the quarterback question

285
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: of the week. Are you ready for this one? This

286
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: one's going to surprise you. Okay, let me let me,

287
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: let me, let me sell some soaper equipment. I'll all right.

288
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: So the quarterback question of the week. Okay, so we

289
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: find out that Nick sabans Uh, your former coach, his

290
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: favorite saying is these nuts. Uh. Okay, that was from

291
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: us so alb your Jordan bat Battle Alabama football player.

292
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: Um did you even know about this? Oh? Yeah, yeah,

293
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: I definitely got it. Um, yeah, it's kind of his thing. Um,

294
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: he didn't do that for a while. I think he

295
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: needs to get maybe get some new ones, but get

296
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: guys with the joke. Yeah yeah, I mean he'll he'll

297
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: get you. He's like he's pretty you know, he's serious,

298
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: and then he'd be like, hey, you know whatever, and

299
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: then he'll just sit you with one of those those

300
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: jokes and um, you'll just catch it out of the

301
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: blue and you're just kind of like, whoa, that just happened.

302
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: So he's been doing that for as long as I

303
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: was there, and probably will before too. Do you do.

304
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: Does Bill? Have you figured out what Bill's favorite saying

305
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: is yet? Um? I have it. You've had some good

306
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: conversations and um, you know he's he's got some humor too,

307
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: And I think as the years go on, I'm sure

308
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: there will be some stuff that definitely will pop up.

309
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: And to get back to y'all and now, so so

310
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: nothing like come Here's element. Julian element is like, you know,

311
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: becoming famous for his Bill Belichick impersonations. I'm wondering it's like,

312
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: do you have one? Does anyone else on the team

313
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: do one? I mean anything like that? No, you gotta

314
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: have a version of it. I'm sure No, I really don't.

00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,000

316
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: should emulate him. But um, yeah, I definitely can't. So

317
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: I mean there's probably people that not. I there will

318
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,960
