1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: Joining us now from the offensive line, Danny Pinner, We 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: got to go back a week before we look on 3 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: what is coming up this weekend against the Jags. Over 4 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:10,320 Speaker 1: five hundred offensive yards, three hundred and twenty some odd 5 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: yards through the air with the new quarterback Matt Ryan, 6 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: one hundred and sixty one on the ground. But it 7 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: was kind of deflating at the time. It was good 8 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 1: comeback in the fourth quarter, but that offensive output, especially 9 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: for the offensive lineman, you had to feel good about 10 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,959 Speaker 1: yourselves after showing what you guys could do through the 11 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: air and on the ground. Relevant though, was the twenty 12 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: twenty tie at the end of the game. Yeah, yeah, obviously, 13 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: you know, we felt like we executed some things well, 14 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, it's all about 15 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: in that wind. So, I mean, this week we was 16 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: just all about cleaning some of that stuff up and 17 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 1: just trying to improve on what we need to improve on. 18 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: Let's go with Matt Ryan a little bit. We did 19 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: see some things happen with the exchange on the center. 20 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: I know, he's a new guy. We've had one training 21 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: camp under our belt like that, But when you talk 22 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: about it, Matt Ryan, you talk about polished and you know, 23 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: a career that's been over fourteen years now and those 24 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: little things usually don't come up. What sort of clean 25 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: up does a quarterback have to do with this offensive 26 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: line this week? You know, I don't think we need 27 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 1: to overthink anything too much. Okay, oh yeah, those little 28 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: things happen here and there, but we feel pretty confident 29 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: and where we're at right now and the way we're improving. 30 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: He's everything. He's everything that you guys have said up 31 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: to this point through camp and everything through the first game. 32 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 1: And I just want to if you could take us 33 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: into that huddle in the fourth quarter when you said, hey, guys, 34 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: we got work to do, but there is time to 35 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: get it done. How was he during that great fourth 36 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: quarter drive to tie it up. He was awesome. He 37 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: was awesome. He didn't waiver at all, whether it be 38 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: in the huddle or even on the sidelines. You know, 39 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: even we're down by seventeen, you could just just see 40 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: it in his eyes that this thing was never over. Um. 41 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: So obviously you know that that feels the offense and 42 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: just just confidence the route and he definitely sparks up. Now. 43 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: One of the things going back to that game, it 44 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: was your first ever start at right guard. Now, I'm 45 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: sure if I ask everybody, there's always things to improve on. 46 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: When you looked at your tape, what was the good 47 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: and what was the bad? Um? Yeah, you know, I 48 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: feel like I did some things while in the run game, 49 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: had some clean stuff in the past game, and then 50 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: stuff that I definitely want to improve on and in 51 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: all areas. I mean, it's going to be the cliche answer, 52 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: but that's the truth for me. I mean, I'm I'm 53 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: hard on myself and I'm always trying to improve. So 54 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: that's the name of the game is just get better 55 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: each day. Now. One of the things that that Jeffrey 56 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: mentioned at the top was a tie. Have you ever 57 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: been a part of a tie? And how is that feel? Like? 58 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: You head into the locker room after the game and 59 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: you're looking at it, You're like, well it ended twenty twenty, 60 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: Like what happened? Like it was just what does that 61 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: feel like? Uh? Yeah, not great? You're you're playing for 62 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: a win for sure, and especially you know, we just 63 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: we felt like we left some stuff out in the 64 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: field and some stuff that we could have executed better. Um, So, 65 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: I mean, of course, you don't want to loss, but 66 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: you definitely want to win. I think that was a 67 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: resounding feeling. That's Danny Pinner offensive lineman. You know him 68 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: from the end zone. This guy's scored touchdowns. Don't forget Casey. 69 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: I mean, are you upset you haven't gotten many looks 70 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: up to this point to the first game. I can't complain, no, 71 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: But it's like Casey said, had your your first start 72 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: here and last year you were part of this and 73 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: a big part of this offense as far as being 74 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: the depth when it came to the offensive line. But 75 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: you were there. I was there, Casey, we were all there. 76 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: We k team. We saw what happened in Jacksonville. I'm 77 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: not trying for bulletin board material, believe me, I'm not. 78 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying these are games that you guys 79 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: remember eight months ago where he had a chance to 80 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs and these guys snuffed it out. 81 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: Yeah you know, Um, he can't lie that. I mean, 82 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: that's that's definitely there. But I think we've done a 83 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: good job of just focus on I mean, they're a 84 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: new team. We're a new team too, um, And it's 85 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: a division game, and division games are always gonna be important. 86 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: So I think that's been our approach for sure. Um 87 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: is just just doing we need to win a division 88 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: game this week on one thing. On Frank Reich, who's 89 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: had who's had some some losses in his in his 90 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: career here and bounces back with huge victories. And we've 91 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: seen that. What has what was the head coach and 92 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: what has he been like this week saying, hey, we 93 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: need to get off to a fast start. One I 94 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: know is our goal each week? You know, one percent 95 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: better than everything and to come out O one o 96 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: O and one after the first game. How's the head 97 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: coach's mentality and how's he translating it to you guys? 98 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: The importance of this one. I think coach Recks great 99 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: and the fact that he's not upward down for sure, 100 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: which I think you know, with the leaders we have 101 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: on our team, um, I think that works. Everyone knows 102 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: what they need to clean up, what we need to 103 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: work out, what when you improve on, and everyone's about 104 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: getting that done. Um. So I think coach Reck does 105 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: a great job of just keeping us midline. We all 106 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: know we wanted to win, we all know we need 107 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: to clean up, and we're gonna get that done. You 108 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: talk about leaders. Just a couple of those guys on offense, 109 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, Michael Pittman. Everybody in the building knew that 110 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: they were probably going to get the ball a handful 111 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: of times, they still were able to make their mark. 112 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: You guys all came in together, you know, watching their 113 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: growth from you know, where you guys were as rookies. 114 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: You're now the starting right guard and those two are 115 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: ascending players. How has that been watching those two guys grow? 116 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: It's awesome? I mean those first off, they're just awesome dudes. 117 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: Everyone loves them in the locker room and just the 118 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: way they work their work ethic and they're how competitive 119 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: they are. I mean they've earned every ounce of respect 120 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: and playmaking building they have that They've earned that every day. 121 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean now they're they're huge parts of 122 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: our offense, and it's just it's just cool to see 123 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: guys that work super hard to rewarded for it. And 124 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: with that that drive in the fourth quarter when it 125 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: was essential, I think it was four straight run plays 126 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: Jonathan thirteen plus on all of them. What does that 127 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: do for the huddle? I mean, talk about the energy 128 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: that that gives that whole huddle of look at what 129 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: he's doing. Yeah, we definitely felt we're in our group 130 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: at that point. And when JT gets going, I mean 131 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: he's going for sure, and you just want more and 132 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: you want to be part of what sparks them up front. 133 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: That's how we feel. We love blocking for that dude, 134 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: and we'll we'll block for them all day, every day. 135 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: Um So, yeah, when he when he gets in his group, 136 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: it's definitely a special thing and you feel it in 137 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: the huddle. Danny Pinner Right, Their offensive line in the 138 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: Jags front, I mean, they're their defensive front is nasty. 139 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: These guys are big bodied, they got huge linebackers. Uh, 140 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: the second year quarterback number one. Overall, what you've seen 141 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: film on these guys for a few days, What do 142 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: they do so well offensively? What do they do so 143 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: well defensively? Yeah, I mean they're certainly an improved team 144 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 1: from last year for sure. I think they added a 145 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of pieces. Um. But you know 146 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: you're on defense, they're they're physical for sure. Um, They've 147 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: got good schemes um and then they're fishing out the 148 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 1: way they do it. But they're they're physical and fast players. 149 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: Um So I've we got counter that, and that's just 150 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: being about your technique. But they're they're definitely a good team. 151 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a challenge to see something off the field, 152 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: but on the field as well. You have feel good 153 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: for one of your teammates in Quenton Nelson when you 154 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: see what he's done in his career, his short career 155 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: to get taken care of financially, you know, generational wealth 156 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: when it comes to the contracts here in the NFL. 157 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,679 Speaker 1: What do you guys do with something like that, Because 158 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: that is one of the top paid, the top paid 159 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: superstars at his position in the league.
