Betton saying yes, so, um, 14 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful. I hope it's not a strategy, but I'm 15 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 1: hopeful to You talked a lot about the games after 16 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: Thanks give it towards you know, we're gonna be the 17 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: post teams of the game together. Yeah, it's pretty Uh. 18 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: You know, it's an important time of year for for 19 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: every team, and um, the teams that are fortunate enough 20 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: to really still be in it. Um, you know, this 21 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: is the time where you've pretty much seen what you 22 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: can do and what the other teams can do, and um, 23 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: you know the roles guys play and so forth. So 24 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: we gotta We're playing some really good teams and this 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: is the one that matters the most when we got 26 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: ahead of us. And uh, it's a great football team, 27 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: well coached, very good on offense, very good on defense. 28 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: They don't beat themselves, they're explosive. Um, it's just it's 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: a great football team. So big challenge for us Sunday 30 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: night football. Um, you know, I'm sure they're gonna give 31 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: us everything they got and hopefully we can go match it. 32 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: You're feeling all right? The school bug find you in 33 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: any way or how are you avoiding it? I'm pretty healthy, guys, 34 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: so I can't avoid it all the time, but I 35 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: try to for the most part, So keep my immune 36 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: system nice and strong if possible. When you see pressure 37 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: later in your career, does the lot or idea of 38 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: just self preservation become more already understating one hit, could 39 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: you know, lead to more assences later in the season 40 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: in terms of just preserving yourself, whether it's kind of 41 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: you know, throwing the ball away or you're living to 42 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: see another playing another game. The idea of self preservation. 43 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: I think self preservation. Um, yeah, for a football player. 44 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be in the self preservation business if I was, 45 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: you know, trying to be a football player. So you 46 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: get you're gonna get hit, and you just gotta understand 47 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: that's part of the game. So when they blitch you, 48 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: you realize you don't have as much time to throw, 49 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: So you got to throw the ball a little quicker, um, 50 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: because they have more you know, the more they blitz, 51 00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: you know, the more one on ones there are, so 52 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: they blitz a guy. Everyone's one on one. Sometimes blit 53 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: zones and so forth. Sometimes they blitz and they overload 54 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: you and you gotta throw the ball really quick. So 55 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: you know, taking hits is part of it. You just 56 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: ain't my whole objective standing there and try to get 57 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: the ball to someone who could do something with it. 58 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: Try to get it to a receiver or back tight 59 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: end with some space so they can make some yards 60 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: within their hands. Yeah. The reason I ask that your 61 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: throwaways are off of this year, and I'm sure you're 62 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: not tracking that, or maybe you don't care one way 63 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: or another, but I was just curious about that with 64 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: the idea, you know, we might give up this incompletion, 65 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: but to gain more later in the game and just 66 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: kind of move on to the next play versus taking 67 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: a loss. I don't think I'm I'm throwing away to 68 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: for that. I'm throwing away because I don't want to 69 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: take a sack. So I think part of it's just 70 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: you feel like you have an opportunity on the play 71 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: and if you don't have that then and I think 72 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: negative plays actually have a big impact on the game. 73 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: You know, turnovers and negative plays I think really keep 74 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: you from winning games. So if you can, you know 75 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: your drop back past. Because I'm not really scrambler, um 76 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: uh not really. I mean I've have scrambled in the past. 77 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: I said, never scrambled. I'm just not really not much 78 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: of a scrambler. But if I'm gonna hold it back there, 79 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: then usually good things aren't going to happen, So try 80 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: to throw the ball away to a safe place and 81 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: live for the next down. You've obviously gotten pretty involved 82 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: in the social media seeing over the last few years, 83 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: but I'm curious how from your perspective, being in that 84 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: locker room as many years as you have, how you've 85 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: seen social media or maybe even just the phones in 86 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: general kind of impact interaction in the locker room. You 87 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: have talked to players who played, um, you know, a 88 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: decade ago or so even, and they say things like, 89 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: you know, there might have been times back then where 90 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: there was a little bit more interaction or there was 91 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: a little bit more trash basketball or whatever, and now 92 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: there are other things that people are rich it in. 93 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: Have you've seen that as well, and as it made 94 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 1: it hard ever to maybe build team camaraderie or camaraderie 95 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: or chemistry because of that. I think it's just a 96 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: little different. And I think you know, you're right. It's 97 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: probably been ten years, if I think about it, since 98 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: the iPhone came out, which everyone started just looking at 99 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: their phones all day. But that's not just a football thing. 100 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 1: I think that's a life thing, a family thing, and 101 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: you're just connected all the time to people, and people 102 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: want to see kind of what's going on in their 103 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: daily life. But we still find a way to connect. 104 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot of times where we 105 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: don't have the phones. It's safe for the most part 106 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: of the day, nobody has it on them, so we're 107 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: communicating about football and obviously on the field, So I 108 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: mean maybe we have a break, you'll go check it 109 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: see if anything's urgent. Hopefully nothing's urgent, but it's just 110 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: kind of you know, guys can do it if they want, 111 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: when they have, you know, three or four minutes of time. 112 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: You mentioned you're a pretty healthy guys that really been 113 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: on the report. Yeah, with the with the elbow, are 114 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: you having to spend an extra time just dealing with 115 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 1: that aspect? I feel pretty good. I feel pretty good. Yeah, 116 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: you wouldn't tell Why would I ever tell you guys anything? 117 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: The opponents are listening, So I actually feel really good. 118 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: I mean that. I mean that, I don't speaking of opponents. 119 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: What is your connection with Deshaun Watson and what are 120 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: your thoughts on him? Yeah. I got to know him 121 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 1: a little bit at the Greenbrier, and they've heard great 122 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: things about him. Um West was down there with him 123 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: and I really liked him, And obviously Billy. I have 124 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: a great relationship with Billy, and uh, you know, he 125 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: really likes Deshaun a lot. So watching him play in college, 126 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: he's spectacular and it's off to a great start in 127 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: his pro career. So I really love watching him play. 128 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: He's a great leader for their team. And he's he's 129 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: hard to stop. He's got a great arm escapes. They 130 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: have a lot of playmakers, so it's a very good offense. 131 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: So thank you guys. I appreciate it.
