1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,240
Speaker 1: So the fourth quarter last week, you had some success

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: in your best stretch since you started to in the lineup.

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: Did that give you some confidence? They give you a

4
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: sense that you've got some good football in front of you. Yeah,

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: I think. I always say every game is different, and

6
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you want to want

7
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 1: to be in it at the fourth quarter. So defense

8
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: did a good job just getting us the ball back

9
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: and give us a chance at the end. But you know,

10
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: to get there, you know, and that's part of it.

11
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: It's playing as a team, special teams, offense and defense.

12
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: So we just got to get there in each game

13
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: and try and play in the fourth quarter to win.

14
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,919
Speaker 1: He wanted you to just be you, And what does

15
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: that mean. I think it's pretty straightforward. The people that

16
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: know me know, you know, I love this game, love

17
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: that fun and I feel like I did that at

18
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: times on Sunday, and I'm gonna carry that to the

19
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: next you know game here and hopefully the guys around

20
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: around me know that. I think since I've been here,

21
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: just they know when I'm in the huddle, it's it's

22
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: about having fun and letting it loose. So that's what

23
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do again. How much do you think the

24
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: whole up tempo thing is connected to having success? Because

25
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: obviously when it works, right everybody, why don't you do

26
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: that all the time? And then and of course they

27
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: don't talk about the times when it doesn't work and

28
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: then back on the field for sure, right a way,

29
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,919
Speaker 1: But but how much do you for you is it?

30
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: Does it just make does it in any way make

31
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: you feel more comfortable? Or is it just something different? Yeah?

32
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: I think it's it's definitely different. And I always say

33
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: a play is a play, So whether you're going fast

34
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: or slow, you want to have a really good play

35
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: on And in that situation, we were going up tempo and

36
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: it was it was working. So it depends on the game.

37
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's a substitution thing. Sometimes it's maybe it's not

38
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: as much blitz when you're going fast, But you know

39
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: a lot of teams are catching on to that. You know,

40
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: it's kind of been a trend in the NFL since

41
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: I've been and when I was a rookie we went

42
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: up tempo a lot and stuff like that, So everyone

43
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: does it. But it just depends on the week and

44
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: the scheme and and everything. So I enjoy it, but

45
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: like I say, a play is a play, and I

46
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: don't think it should affect an offense either way. You

47
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: should execute that play whatever the call is. You know,

48
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: it could be a call in the huddle, it could

49
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: be up tempo. I'm I'm not sure how much you

50
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: you talked with Trevor about what happened on Sunday, But

51
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 1: I mean, uh, what is your observation on just how

52
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: he's handled leaving, actually having to leave the game because

53
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: of something like that. Yeah, I mean, Trevor's very tough

54
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: person and I've learned a lot from him just from

55
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: the way he leads and how tough he is. And

56
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: for him to be in that game fighting every play

57
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: is awesome. And honestly, the the play that happened, it's

58
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: really unfortunate for everybody. But I know Trevor's doing a

59
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: little bit better, which is awesome, and that's all you

60
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: can ask for. It's just we definitely had his back

61
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: and now it's time to to continue to play for

62
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: him and and move forward. And you know, I talk

63
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: with him as much as I can. Like I said,

64
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: we're always together from like six am to eight pm,

65
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: so we're we're definitely together a lot and I feel

66
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: like we've become really good friends. So I'm you know,

67
00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 1: always there for him. You have Johnny, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah,

68
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: he was a little Bishop Kenny legend, you know. So

69
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: it's a little older than me. But I remember watching

70
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: you'd throw for like eight hundred and seventy five yards

71
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: a game or something and Bishop Kenny. But I don't

72
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: think they ever beat Bulls, so but I don't know,

73
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: they wouldn't play us when when I was in high school.

74
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: But no, I think, you know, I've known him and

75
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: he's a great player and good to have him, you know,

76
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: on our team, and he's played played a good amount

77
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 1: of football. So it's just kind of funny. We were

78
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: laughing this morning at like six am. It's like, who

79
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: would have thought we would have been here? It's like

80
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: in the locker room. So it's just kind of funny.

81
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: It's national Did you do anything big? Good? Oh? That's today?

82
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: H yeah today? Yeah, not really. I think we just

83
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: did a little ceremony and yeah, it's a great day

84
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: for for athletes kind of opening up that next next

85
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: phase of their life. And it's a lot different now

86
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: than when even when I was there. But you know,

87
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: I definitely love that day because you know, I look

88
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: back on it. I went to Alabama and stayed there

89
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: and finished there. So hopefully a lot of guys can

90
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: have a little bit of stick to its. What do

91
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: you see time defense, They're really good. Uh, they got

92
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: great players. Been fortunate to play against you know, some

93
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: of those guys over there. But statistically they they don't

94
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: give a lot, you know, give up a lot of

95
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: yards and their their yard per play is really low.

96
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: So they do a great job past defense, like number

97
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: one I think. So they have a great defensive line obviously,

98
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: and the scheme is really good, you know a little

99
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: bit of the Ravens scheme too, with some blitzes and things.

100
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: So it'll be a big challenge. And they've they've been

101
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: playing well on defense. So been really impressed with you know,

102
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: the coaching and the players over there. Cool. Thank you,
