1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: What's going on, Karen. I guess seeing your first playoff

2
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 1: throw around, how many out there?

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 2: How do you keep from you know getting home to

4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: you over and throw over hyped at the.

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 3: Start of the game.

6
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think coaches, what coach in preaching is just

7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 2: don't change you know, our process, our preparation, you know,

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 2: kind of my throughout the week, you know what we've

9
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 2: been doing. I think the the natural thing is trying

10
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: to you know, try to you know something, do get

11
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 2: a little more anthetsis a natural, you know, as the humans,

12
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: you know, for a big game. And I think just

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 2: trust what you've been doing. And you know, I told

14
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 2: this guy the end of the season before when the

15
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 2: playoffs came, they to put some extra work in the

16
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 2: setter practice. And you know some guys been you know,

17
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 2: thrown extra routes on little things like that that can

18
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 2: you'll go a long way. But don't do anything ordinator

19
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 2: at ordinary And I think that's the biggest thing. Trust

20
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: what you've been doing, Trust preparation you've been doing all season,

21
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 2: and trust your coaching, the teammates around you, and just.

22
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: Got there, have fun and you know, playoff football, so

23
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: you ever bring your best and and everybody knows that.

24
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: So that's the that's the kind of you know expect

25
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: tation and just trying to you know, live up that

26
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: and just trying to be myself sure that you played

27
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: with them when you were used to play mad he's

28
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 2: a TV who used to play with your old James.

29
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: What appealed to you about him? Then? Did maybe what

30
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 1: seeings out about him?

31
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's relentless. He's a great football player. You know,

32
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 2: playing him last year and getting to him a little

33
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 2: bit at the Pro Bowl. He's a great, great, great dude.

34
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: He's uh, flies around, he's got good instincts. He's punching

35
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 2: at the ball. He's good in the run games, good

36
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: in the past game. He plays some man coverage on

37
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 2: third down. He uh just he was always around the football.

38
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 2: He's got a knack for the football and he's he's

39
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 2: had that probably since he started playing. And uh he

40
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 2: has a great play. A lot of strike for him.

41
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 2: And we got to you know, find out on every

42
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: play where he's at and they ask him. You know,

43
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 2: really good good players. Their physical as a team and

44
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: that's some good guys on the edge and you know

45
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 2: they're smart and they've played together for a little bit,

46
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: so they had a good squad COREC.

47
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: I know direct, I know that there's a big difference

48
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 3: to try college or professional obviously, but you experienced the

49
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two a c C championship game. How can

50
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 3: that feelings that you experienced that game, big pressure game

51
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 3: obviously through the college career translate to what you're getting

52
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 3: ready for here in the NFL playoffs. If there is

53
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 3: any correlation.

54
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think maybe a little bit, you know, getting

55
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 2: back to it, you know, trying to play for championships.

56
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 2: I think there's always you know, something on the line

57
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: when you've got to try to play at your best

58
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: and just replicating that. I think it's different, a little

59
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 2: bit different than the NFL type of ball game. And

60
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: uh just the mentality of winner go home, and that's

61
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 2: uh or way advanced. And I think that's the biggest

62
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 2: thing that's you know different in you know, AC championship.

63
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,839
Speaker 1: You go to a bowl game, but you know here

64
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,839
Speaker 1: it's you know now or you're going home.

65
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: So that's the that's the mindset, and that's what you

66
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: try to you know, you not let you know, you know, uh,

67
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 2: you know, coaches take no naps down, let plays you

68
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: know throughout the game that can affect the game. You know,

69
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 2: realize that any when we got to do everything I

70
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,679
Speaker 2: can to to realize I'm in this position, and try

71
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,519
Speaker 2: to do whatever you count each drive and try not

72
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: to waste drives, waste plays and uh waste you know,

73
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 2: opportunity that we're have.

74
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: You'recount of hopefully being picked with your receivers. And how

75
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: do you feel like you've grown? Actually?

76
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think coming your harder on comes with you know,

77
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: learning them and and uh them'm respecting our relationship together.

78
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: I think that's the biggest thing that I've learned is

79
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: get to know them and have some success with them,

80
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 2: have some failure with them, and learn, Hey what do.

81
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: You like here? Hey, how do you feel like? You know?

82
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: I threw this ball to you? And these guys have

83
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: reponded gonna be great all year? They want the ball,

84
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 2: you know, I've obviously every receiver does. But uh, they

85
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 2: take criticism well, and they don't take it personally, and

86
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 2: they they just want to help the team.

87
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: And they're blocking downfield, They're doing all the little things.

88
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: And I think, guys, I get older, I'll probably start

89
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 2: getting more mad when they don't line up correctly, But

90
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: I think I try to you know, know what kind

91
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: of position they're incrus if they're young, and we got

92
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: some you know, young group you know for the most part,

93
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: but uh, you know the older guys like Steph they uh,

94
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 2: they like want to get fired up a little bit.

95
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: Great match up against Justin Herbert?

96
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 2: Do you look at it that way as a quarterback

97
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: that he's on the other side.

98
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: Obviously fans will get it that way, but do you

99
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: match up against him?

100
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: Are you ours a lot largely absolutly focused on on

101
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: the deep bats?

102
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

103
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 2: I think you play the defense you play you're out

104
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: there on the field against and I think think the

105
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: quarterback matchups is, you know, one of the things that's

106
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: natural for people to do. But I think you're playing

107
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 2: against the eleven guys on defense and he less unless

108
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: he rolls out there on defense, I don't expect him

109
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 2: to do that focusing on defense, and they got we

110
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: got a tough job. When you describe sort of your

111
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 2: leadership style, there where your focus marketting to know guys

112
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: and you're not maybe gripping them.

113
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: Chewing them out if they do something wrong. Where did

114
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: you learn to treat that part of your job in.

115
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 2: That way, I think you learned what I transferred schools

116
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: in high school, transferred schools after my first freshman year

117
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 2: and became the starting quarterback out of school. My sophomore

118
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 2: year was just trying to learn the team, learn the guys,

119
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: and try to earn respect from the guys at a

120
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: new school.

121
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 1: That was you know, I hadn't been around any of

122
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: the players.

123
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: I knew a little bit of them from you know,

124
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 2: playing an off season seven on seven, but just learning

125
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 2: the guys and trying to respect them and then respecting

126
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 2: how I work and how I treat people. And from there,

127
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 2: just trying to translate that to college of learning a

128
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 2: new group and translated there everywhere I've I've gone since then.

129
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 2: I think that's the biggest thing. And I think that

130
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: I was respecting. I think you see, you know more

131
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: and more, you know, down the road as I you'll

132
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: get older of me getting on the guys and kind

133
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 2: of in respecting from man, I want to you know,

134
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 2: be in the right spot for Drake and lineup right,

135
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: and it comes with you know, me, you know, being

136
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 2: successful in the field and me doing my part as well.

137
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: Forty zones are typically thought of its kind of pre

138
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 1: event style defense.

139
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: If you see it the same way and are there

140
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 2: still ways you could be aggressive against those kinds of works, Yeah,

141
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 2: I think.

142
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: One hundred percent.

143
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 2: I think one of the Chargers, you know, one of

144
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 2: the things that they do best is I have eyes

145
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 2: in the quarterback. They forced a lot of three and outs.

146
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: I think, you know, they're one of the top five

147
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 2: defense in forting three and outs. They keep people in

148
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 2: front of you. They don't you know, have a lot

149
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 2: of X plays on them. They try to, you know,

150
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 2: try to limit big plays and I think that's one

151
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: of the biggest things I see from them on tape.

152
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: And they're good on the edge.

153
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 2: They're physical and I think from attacking standpoint, there's there's

154
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 2: any any covers, there's always voids. So I think we've

155
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: seen about all of them you can see this year

156
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: and we've had success and has some plays that I

157
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 2: wish you had back against them.

158
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: That point about X plays. They have the best default

159
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: defense satistically the whole league. How do you balance you know,

160
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: understanding that's straight if they're's operating underneath well not conceding entirely,

161
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: you know, a big part of you.

162
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you just take chances when they're there.

163
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: I think, you know, one on one coverage, you gotta

164
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 2: take chances, you know, one on one.

165
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: I like our guys.

166
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 2: You know, they're making plays on the football when they

167
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: have one on one coverage, And I like putting ball,

168
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 2: you know, ball placement and and give them a chance

169
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 2: to go make a play.

170
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,239
Speaker 1: And at the same time, just be patient, you know, don't.

171
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 2: Get bored being efficient and executing underneath and letting things

172
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 2: come to you. And I think that's the biggest thing

173
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 2: is starting off and staying on track on first down,

174
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 2: first and second down, and knowing that you know, when

175
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: we're behind the sticks, you know they have the advantage.

176
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 2: Have you heard the direct ban anthems this week?

177
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: I have not.

178
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 2: Think somebody told me about it. Maybe it's Steph, but

179
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 2: I haven't. I haven't heard that.

180
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: Who knows? Probably something. I don't know if it's good

181
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: or bad.

182
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 3: But Drake, how would you best describe your feelings coming

183
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 3: to this game?

184
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: And confidently anxious? Are you nervous? Are you excited? Are

185
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: you all of it? Yeah? This is obviously a little

186
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,799
Speaker 1: bit of mixed emotions.

187
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: I think the bigges thing is excited excited to get

188
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 2: opportunity to you'll play home full home playoff games. That's

189
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 2: what's you we kind of you know, uh, you'll start

190
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 2: at the end of the season of things we want

191
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 2: to do here and goals we want to accomplish, and

192
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 2: we got a chance and opportunity right here. So take

193
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 2: advantage of playing in front of a crowd that's been

194
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 2: great all year, a crowd I expect to be loud,

195
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 2: and a night game against an opponent that, uh, you know,

196
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 2: has the playoff experience and has a great, great offense

197
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 2: and a great defense. So we got our hands full,

198
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 2: but now looking forward to play in front of this crowd.

199
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: Thing as much jump bos you guys have the last

200
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: four weeks, what has that done for you as a passer,

201
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 2: but also.

202
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: The offense, it's all yeah, get champs to get him

203
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: big people. You know.

204
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: Also sometimes we we've got three receivers in there and

205
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 2: have a jumbo tight end, so just trying to mix

206
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: it up, give him some different looks in the run game.

207
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: You know, as there had a gout, it's better at.

208
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: Blocking and a guy that's sitting you over there on

209
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 2: the bench, so it adds a sixth offene a lineman

210
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: and one of I think that's one of the biggest things.

211
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 2: And uh you know, being able to throw the football,

212
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: play action and drop back and for different things. All

213
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: starts with you run the football and really crowd the

214
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 2: guys and especially upfront for how they've handled that. And

215
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 2: I've had the best view in the house and from

216
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 2: the from my point of view for some of these big.

217
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: Runs and just blocked up beautiful and it's fun to watch.

218
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: He feels things to prove this season when he tried

219
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: to look at THEMS that way. Things to prove. Uh No,

220
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that. I think this proved to my teammates.

221
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: You know, we try to you know, be the same

222
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 2: player you'll do the regular seasons as you know, playing

00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: in the in the postseason, and that starts with you know,

Speaker 2: And you know I know that that's that that's the

229
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 2: nature of this league and nature position that's you know,

230
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,440

235
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 2: To the production he's had and now winning AFC Offensive

236
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: Player of the League. Just what have you seen from

237
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 2: him in terms of coming in every day working and

238
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 2: just his mindset, that mindset he hasn't changed, you So

239
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: proud of the way he's bounced back, has some things

240
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 2: off the field that he's just you know, kept on pushing.

241
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 2: And he's been a great teammate. He's always been a

242
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: great teammate. He's a great football player. You know, Coach

243
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 2: shows some high school highlights in the film room sometimes

244
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 2: and you'll watch him in high school. He uh, he's

245
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 2: got the same little jump cut and he's hard to tackle.

246
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: He's got great contact balance. He, like I said after

247
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 2: the game, does in all three phases. I mean the

248
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 2: amount of pickup locks. You know, I told him, he

249
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 2: told me he needs to get like the old lineman

250
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 2: and he probably does. You know, the way he's blocked

251
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 2: this year, it's been, you know, one of the best

252
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 2: in the league. And it's just it's it's it's comforting

253
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 2: you have thirty eight back there, and you know, it's

254
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,760

255
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,920

256
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,400
