I gonna be careful. 4 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: So what you start preparing here for BOT what you 5 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 2: can see. 6 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're well coached, you know, from top 7 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: to bottom, from the d lin to the linebackers to 8 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: you know, the secondary group. I mean, they're well coached. 9 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: They understand that system. They've been in that system for 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of those guys have been there 11 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: for a while now. And then you look at you know, 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: some of those guys like Ployer and Michael Hi, those 13 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: guys have been playing for eleven years. So a lot 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: of those guys have a lot of experience, a lot 15 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: of you know, games under their belts where they understand 16 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 1: how to disguise, how not to disguise, and kind of 17 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: hide some of the things that they're doing. So it's 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: gonna be you know, a tough challenge for us to 19 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: you know, see what they're doing versus us and just 20 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: you know, execute what we're trying to do to ride 21 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: the events. But what you guys were able to do 22 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: in Denver and kind of with that kind of thing 23 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: that you learn about yourself in the team those you 24 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 1: go about a whole week here. Yeah, of course you would, 25 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: you know, love to ride that momentum. I mean, we're 26 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: playing a great Bills team. They've been rolling the last 27 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 1: three weeks, so it's really gonna, god of come down 28 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: to us executing what we're trying to do as offense. 29 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: And then some of the things that you know, looking 30 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: back arsts the Broncos, there's a few you know, misteris 31 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: that I had, you know, I had, you know, Pharaoh 32 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: on one route that I missed him on and just 33 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: a little things like that and that could affect the game. 34 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: So just trying to dial that in and get ready 35 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: for you know, practice today and tomorrow Friday, and try 36 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 1: to fix some of those things. 37 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: Really, I know you didn't you didn't play in the 38 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: matchup against the Bills earlier this season, But what did 39 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: you take from the sideline about what they do well 40 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: on defense and what can you bring into the Sunday? 41 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they play hard, they're front four of 42 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: those guys, they're coming after you. So it's gonna be 43 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: up to me to you know, try to see the 44 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: you know defense pre and post now and trying to 45 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: get the ball out. You know, like coach always says, 46 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: I can't make any yards until I get rid of 47 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: the ball, So it to be up to me to 48 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, see what they're trying to do. 49 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: It's gonna be hard because those guys played really well. 50 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: They played for a long time, so you know, to 51 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: be a lot of film watching and trying to get 52 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: an understanding of those guys. Were talking to. 53 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: Coach O'Brien yesterday and he said that you've worked with 54 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 2: Edon Rothstein on pocket movement and stuff like that a lot, 55 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 2: and just wondering like what kind of goes into that 56 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: routine for you. 57 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we usually do that stuff every day 58 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: before practice. We get out there fifteen twenty minutes before, 59 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: have the bags and you know, he kind of walks 60 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: out there and tells us what drills he wants us 61 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: to do, and but we're really pretty routine about it. 62 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: We do it every day, and it kind of just 63 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: the more you do it, the more it becomes like 64 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: second nature to you. So when you get on the field, 65 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: you're not really worried about or thinking about. It kind 66 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: of just comes natural and that's what you want. You 67 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: don't want to be back there worried about the rush. 68 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: You want to be able to have your eyes downfield. 69 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: So that's really helped a lot. Doing that stuff before 70 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: practice really would so thinks I did probe thoks that us. 71 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: When did I start, you know, I would say in 72 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: training camp, I felt like I started to get, you know, 73 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: a good sense of you know, the system. I mean 74 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: it's not I mean the verbiage and some of the 75 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: things are of course different than what we did last year. 76 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: But of course, you know, the more weeks that you know, 77 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: I was in the game planning and the games, and 78 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: now playing in the games. Of course, getting comfortable with 79 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: him and how he likes to call plays, it's it's 80 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: helped a lot. And the more practices and of course 81 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: the more games I play with him calling it and 82 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: game planning with him and kind of getting a sense of, 83 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,119 Speaker 1: you know, how he likes to do things and attack things. 84 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: I think both of us are only going to get 85 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: more and more comfortable, you know, with each other. How 86 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: different is the system with with Bill compared to what 87 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: you feel operated in the past in college, Well, I played, 88 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: I was in the air raid, so it's it's totally upset. 89 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: I think we ran the ball like ten times a game, 90 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: not through about fifty. So that's one of the biggest differences. 91 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: And then you know, then it was, you know, just 92 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: the different concepts. Of course, everybody kind of runs the 93 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: same you know, routes, but just a different way of 94 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: putting two concepts together and how you read it. Of 95 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: course that's different. And then the play calling is a 96 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: little bit different a lot longer places than you know, 97 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: we'd have like a ninety five in college. I mean 98 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: that was a play and you don't have that no 99 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: more in NFL. So I think that's another thing that's different. 100 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: But I enjoy it. It's fun, so yeah, speak it's 101 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: the atmosphere, like for you in Buffalo, from the bus 102 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: ride in where they're kind of getting on you guys, 103 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: to being. 104 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: Out there on the field. 105 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: That's me exciting. You know this, These two teams, these 106 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: two organizations have been going at it for a long time, 107 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: and I don't think there's any I don't think either 108 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: one like each other very well. So it's gonna be 109 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: fun to get out there and play against that great 110 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: team and that great organization. So it's gonna be fun. 111 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: And you know, that's what football is all about. Mafia. 112 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: I mean, the get after it. They love football, they 113 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: love their bills. So I mean it's it's gonna be loud. 114 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna come down to communication for us. So that's 115 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: gonna be a big part and a big emphasis for 116 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: us throughout this week. A little bit off right here 117 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: going a few years A curious if you have a 118 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: resident resident, I wanted to dull share. To be honest, 119 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: I haven't thought about it. Uh yeah, yeah, get back 120 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: to me after when you were talking about bite. It 121 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: was in the fourth quarter. I can't think of a 122 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: right hash. I don't remember what your line. I think 123 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: it was like the second or third last drive. But 124 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: it was just you know, something for me that I missed. 125 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: I read it's like a spot concept, right yeah. I 126 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: honestly the it wasn't anything besides you know me, I 127 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: was kind of rush Now is the mentality of like 128 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: I didn't want to sit back there too long because 129 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: I know those guys are going to be, you know, 130 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: either blitzing or you know, rushing hard to try to 131 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: get a sack. So for me, it was just kind 132 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: of I sped up my process too fast, and if 133 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: I don't do that. Maybe I hit him for a 134 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: big game and right then and there that game's over, 135 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: but I didn't. So that's something that I need to 136 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: learn from. 137 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: What's sit out to you about working with Pharaoh Brown. 138 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: I mean that's a He's a great guy. He's tough, 139 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: he's physical. You could kind of feel his presence, you 140 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: know when he's on the football field because he's always 141 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: finishing blocks. He plays to the echo of the whistle. 142 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: He has great hands. I think he he actually is 143 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: very talented in the you know, passing game as much 144 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: as he is in the run game too. So to 145 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: be able to use him like we have on some 146 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: of those seams like he caught this past game and 147 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: things like that, is you know, that's a game that 148 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: he can do. So it's nice to have a guy 149 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: like that in the tight end room. Of course, failure environments, Pittsburgh, Denver, 150 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: Prime time. Just how you feel like that has helped 151 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: you as a player and changed you as a player. Yeah, 152 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: I mean that's you know, it's fun. That's exactly what 153 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: football is all about. You want to go in those environments. 154 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: You want to go and play some tough teams and 155 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: you know, winning of course makes it, you know, a 156 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: lot better. But you know this is of course this 157 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: is gonna be you you know, another great environment to 158 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: play in. Like I said, you know those these two 159 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: teams we don't you know, and of course don't like 160 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: each other. It's a great rivalry. So just got to 161 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: go in there and you know, play our brand football. 162 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: Really is Devonte Parker that's allowed you guys to have 163 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: such a great connection so far. And going back to Les, Yeah, 164 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: I mean, Davante is one of those guys that you know, 165 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: I fully believe in when you know, those fifty fifty 166 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: ball is kind of how we connected versus the Broncos 167 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: to where I have the confidence in him to you know, 168 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: really put it wherever I want and that he's gonna 169 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: go get it. It's either gonna be incomplete or it's 170 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a big gain for us. So he's been 171 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: doing that his whole career, so to be able to 172 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: see that again, you know, versus Broncos is a beautiful 173 00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: sight to see him go up there and make those catches. So, 174 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: you know, if we ever get that matchup again, I 175 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: don't know if we will after the game we had, 176 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: but if we do, hopefully we'll take advantage of it, 177 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: and you know, I'll throw another one up there too. 178 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: How have you continued to adjust some different person as 179 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: far as pass Yeah, I mean the guys, you know, 180 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: we have a we've done a great job of the 181 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: next man up mentality. A lot of guys have stepped up. 182 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: They've done a phenomenal job. They've came in, they've understood 183 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: the game plan and they've ran great routes, they've caught 184 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: the ball, they made plays. That's really the only thing 185 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: you can ask for them, you know, I think we 186 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: have great depth in all of our running back rooms, 187 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: tied end rooms, receiver rooms, if it's in the course 188 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: O line room, we have great depth in every single 189 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: guy that you know has had the opportunity to play, 190 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: has taken advantage of that opportunity. 191 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: When you make a misread on the field, what's your 192 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 2: process for learning what you need to learn from that 193 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 2: miss without clouding your judgment on the next drive or 194 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 2: slowing down your process too much. 195 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: But you're overthinking, Yeah, I think you know it started off. 196 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: You go, you go off the sideline, you have your 197 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: live AADs and that's when you kind of figure out, 198 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: like Okay, maybe you know I read it wrong, Maybe 199 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: I you know, I was I stared at the corner 200 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 1: too long instead of seeing what the safety was doing, 201 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: or I did vice versa. I mean, it really depends 202 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: on how you're reading a certain play. But mainly like that, 203 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: just kind of seeing, you know, trying to remember where 204 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: you started with your eyes and maybe fixing it or 205 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: tweaking it a little bit on how they're playing, you know, 206 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 1: because some defenses, of course, they make adjustments. So the 207 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: first time you run a concept in the first half, 208 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: they might run a different coverage than they do in 209 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 1: the second half, so you just kind of just have 210 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: to adjust to. 211 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 2: It your eyes on the next drive. You're not really 212 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: thinking about that specific mistake. 213 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you gotta trust your eyes. And if you, 214 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: you know, stop trusting your eyes, then you're gonna, you know, 215 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: do what I did and not get the ball out 216 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: quick quick and sit back there and miss a read. 217 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: So you know, you gotta trust what you see and 218 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: go with it. Yeah, I mean, I don't know if 219 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,599 Speaker 1: you liked it, but I was just like, hey, I 220 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: was like, no more handshakes, let's get a hug. So well, 221 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: just in case of Another video goes Borrol, we're hugging 222 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: it out. He's just like okay, you know. So it's 223 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: like it's a great moment.
