1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: Happy holidays, Mary, Chris, is everybody absolutely just on the

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: injury front. I'll just give it here right now. Is so,

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: dj Evan Nuban, j MS and a T. They will

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: will rest them today. They won't go today. Everyone else

5
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: will get some work done. You said, dj Evan Nuban,

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: JMS and Andrew Thomas.

7
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 2: Do you have a feel at all over Andrew? Is

8
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 2: that more rest or? Is that more the hamster and whatnot?

9
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not gonna go today. Well, this kind of

10
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: see how it feels. And you know, he's got a

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: couple of days here to see how it looks.

12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 3: When has it become best just to shut guys down?

13
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 3: You know, there's two games left. If not to be

14
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 3: able to make it this week, is it worth you know,

15
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 3: rushing him back for the finale or anything?

16
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I think we'll just we'll look at and

17
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: see where the extent of the injury is and then

18
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: just you know, give him a couple of days here

19
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: and then evaluate it and then make a decision. Same

20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: with MS, same thing. Yeah, yeah, I mean I think

21
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: we just got to see the see how he responds

22
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: to the treatment, you know, and then by Thursday Friday,

23
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: well the field. What do you want to see.

24
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 2: From from Jackson?

25
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 4: Kind of bounce back game.

26
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: I guess yeah, really, Jackson, the whole offensive unit, myself,

27
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: we all are you know. Obviously last week's performance wasn't

28
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 1: to our standard, right, so we got we came back

29
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: to work today and yesterday dialed in on the game

30
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: plan and emphasized, you know, the things that we need

31
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 1: to get corrected. And then today's a great day because

32
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: yesterday it was kind of a walk through tempo. So

33
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: he's a great day, a good work day in terms

34
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: of get out of the field full speed, the timing,

35
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 1: the rhythm, the communication, ramping that up as well, we're

36
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: inside well, the crowd noise, so there'll be a few

37
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: different elements off to work through. So I'm expecting anticipating

38
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: a good, good work to day. Were you curious to

39
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: see how he came back from that game? I mean,

40
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: you know, you guys have you know you've been in

41
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: the game long enough to look down and helps him down.

42
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: So this is sort of his first No, I wouldn't

43
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: say I was curious. I knew exactly how he would respond,

44
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: like he'd responded to anything, the highs, the lows, who's

45
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: respond the same way, with great attention to detail, urgency

46
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: to get better. And so Jackson's had that approach. Our

47
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: whole offense to that approach, and he's the leader of

48
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: the ship and they're going to follow his direction and

49
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: and and the leaders that we have on offense. So again,

50
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: one of those days today where you know it should

51
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: be a lively practice for you.

52
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 4: How do you view like that coach quarterback ladship. Obviously

53
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 4: you've had it with Mahomes and now Jackson, how do

54
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 4: you view how important that is to just kind of

55
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 4: develop guy, just kind of help the quarterback get through

56
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 4: these highs and lows as as a young quarterback.

57
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: Again, it's extremely important. It's extremely important because you know,

58
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: I've been in those situations, but you know, seeing the

59
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: game through through the helmet that way and be able

60
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: to give him my experiences, be able to go through

61
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: not only as a player, but also as a coach

62
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: and seeing having to go through those ebbs and flows

63
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: of a season or a game, or a quarter or

64
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: a series or a play. You know, you can kind

65
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: of dial it down to you know, a couple of

66
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: different scenarios. So and we have a great resource and

67
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: great resources in that room as well, Shay Coach Tierney

68
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: does a great job the veterans that we have in

69
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: that room be able to get feedback as well. And

70
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: for Jackson and for any young player, like they're absorbing

71
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: that information, they're making it their own, they're making their

72
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: corrections themselves, and then they're going out and applying it

73
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: to the practice field.

74
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 2: You're obviously communicating with Jackson all the time, but when

75
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: he has a game like he had, you know, all

76
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: you guys had, But obviously he talked after the game.

77
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: He's never had an experience like that before, and do

78
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: you find out how do you handle that? In terms

79
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: of speaking you're speaking them all the time, but is

80
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 2: the are there different pointed messages that you give him

81
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 2: after a game like that and then say, you know,

82
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: game that he had had more success in.

83
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: I think the messaging is consistent. The highs and the lows,

84
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: they're all consistent. Where are the opportunities that we can

85
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: learn from, Where the opportunities we can grow from. And

86
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: there's plenty of things that he did well in that

87
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: game too, whether it was in and out of alerts, operation,

88
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage. Sure, there's things that we

89
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: can improve on just like there is every single game.

90
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: So I think the consistency of that dialogue and really

91
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: we're the points of emphasis for that game, putting that

92
00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: kind of turn the page, and now what can we

93
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: do to apply those same learning tools to this game

94
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: because this is a different team, this is a different scheme. Yeah,

95
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: there may be similar pressures, there may be similar fronts

96
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: and structures, but this is a different group. This is

97
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: a different game entirety. So making sure that we kind

98
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: of compartmentalize that game and now what's the focus for

99
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: this game and turn the page and putting together a

100
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: great plan and having a great practice routine and great

101
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: practice schedule so we can have a good game this week,

102
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: not getting way too much.

103
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 3: You know, like you said, they're a different team.

104
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure this is going to be a little bit

105
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: of a different game plan than than what you had

106
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: run heavy last time. It's I mean every week is different,

107
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, every week is different. And I think whenever

108
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: we can take advantage of whether it's our personnel, their personnel,

109
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: our scheme, their scheme, We're gonna look at that and

110
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: you know, every game is going to be a little

111
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: bit different. Whatever we think is the best way to

112
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: attack them, and the best will give us the best

113
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: chances to win the game. That's what we'll try and do.

114
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 3: How much have you had to talk to him about

115
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 3: allowing him to sort of play his games like freelance style.

116
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 3: There was a post he liked that seemed to suggest, Uh,

117
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 3: he's not able to fully play his game.

118
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: I'm not sure I got the post like, I'm not

119
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: sure I saw that post. All I know is that

120
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: I give We want to give our players we want.

121
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 1: We don't ever want to have our players in a

122
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: box and put them in a box. So we want

123
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: to give our players the ability to express themselves on

124
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: the field to the best of their abilities and let

125
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: their let their natural ability show. But sure, we have

126
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: framework within the offense, within our offensive system that has

127
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: certain rules that we have to work through, right, and

128
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: so you take those rules and then you give it

129
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: to the players, and then they elevate it and they

130
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: put their own stamp on it, and they make it

131
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: their own they and they make it great.

132
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: So from your perspective, you haven't heard that from him

133
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 3: like that. He's frustrated with no.

134
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: No, we have we talk every we talk almost every

135
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: day on a personal level and then obviously in the

136
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: football level. But you know, we have those discussions about

137
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: how the game could have went or should have win,

138
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: or things that we can get corrected together. And again

139
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: I'm right there, arm in arm with them in terms of,

140
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: you know, our operation, how we're going to play on offense,

141
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: Like we say it's eleven man operation. I'm like kind

142
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: of the twelfth man of that, right like in our

143
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: coaching staff's an extension of me as well. So we're

144
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: all in this thing together. We're all want everyone to

145
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: have their best games, want everyone to play well, but

146
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: every game is to be different, and so it's going

147
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 1: to take a certain certain things on certain games to win.

148
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: And you know we've said this in the past, whether

149
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: it's running the ball thirty times, we're throwing the ball

150
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: fifty times, we don't necessarily know how it's gonna game

151
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 1: gonna declare itself. But the ability to adjust and adapt

152
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 1: to that scenario and then give our chance, give ourselves

153
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: a chance to win it in the fourth quarter, which

154
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: is a lot of where a lot of these football

155
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: games come down to. That's the main goal.

156
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 4: Mike.

157
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 2: You've obviously been the last couple of years off season

158
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 2: has gone through some interview processes for head coach and stuff.

159
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 2: I'm curious how you would characterized, you know, the things

160
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: you've learned about yourself and about doing this job in

161
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: these last five or six weeks here five.

162
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: Weeks then, yes, I think it's been a great learning experience.

163
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: Every single day I'm grown. Every single day I learned

164
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: something new, not only about myself but about the players.

165
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: How can I continue to give my best to the

166
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: players an asset? You know? Where can I be an

167
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: asset to them? Where can I be an asset to

168
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: the coaching staff? How can I continue to serve them

169
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: the people around us and our organization? You know, how

170
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: can I be an asset and serve them to the

171
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: best of my ability? That's really the one thing I'm

172
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: learning as I can every single day, like where where's

173
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: the one piece I can help insert myself to help

174
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: them be better? And you know, we talk about it

175
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: a lot as the staff, and not just offensively, but

176
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: talking with the coordinators on our team and where we

177
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: need to be and what are the messaging and what

178
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 1: are the things that we need to talk about to

179
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: get the best of out of our players, Whether that's

180
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 1: changing things in the schedule, whether that's changing personnel groupings

181
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: or getting into certain scheme stuff, or it's just hey,

182
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: how are we going to operate in the building? You know,

183
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: how are our meetings going to sound, how are they

184
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: going to look? What does that what does the feel

185
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: of this building look like? And how is that going

186
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: to change on a weekly if we need to make

187
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: adjustments or overall, you know what we need to do

188
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: to be better and to continue to find a way

189
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: to win.

190
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 2: You've always been you know, in front of us always

191
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 2: it's always been about the players. But know for you

192
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: as a head coach, you're still waiting for your first win.

193
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: How difficult has that been to not taste that yet

194
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 2: and and you know the drive to get that done

195
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 2: maybe maybe maybe that.

196
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: Sunday winning winnings. Winnings hard in this league and we

197
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: all know that. But we know that there's also if

198
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: we do the right things offensively, defensively, special teams, we

199
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: do the right things as a staff, that we'll get

200
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: those we'll get those results. And so you know, we

201
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: have a great focus in on what's most important. That's

202
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: today and working through our critical situations, our third down,

203
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: our short yardage, you know, mixing in some two minutes

204
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: as well. That's going to be a huge part of

205
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: this game. So we have to be detailed. We have

206
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: to be understanding what what this game plan is and

207
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: master that game plan. That way we can apply to Sunday.

208
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 2: Do you at all? The one more question about that?

209
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 2: I just I mean it's human nature to wonder, you know,

210
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 2: for all of us what our future is with you know,

211
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 2: the next step or whatnot. Do you do you wonder

212
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 2: about that at all? Do you you know when it's

213
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 2: your having a quiet moment at home at all? Or

214
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 2: do you are you blocking that out and getting through

215
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 2: these two games?

216
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 3: Like? How do you handle that?

217
00:08:58,800 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 2: Yeah?

218
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: My only focus is done just on this team this

219
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: week today, because you don't have time. I don't have

220
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: time to overthink all those other things, Mike, I'm my

221
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: only focus is on the players. How can I make

222
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: them the best? My coaching staff, the staff around us,

223
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: how can I make them the best? And so that's

224
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 1: really the only focus. So if you think of it

225
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: that way, it keeps it really simple in your mind

226
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: and you don't have to worry about all that other

227
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: stuff that's just that just bogged your mind down. So

228
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: that's really where our focus is. And I'm excited every

229
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: day I come to work. I love I love my job.

230
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: Almost there but almost it's hard. I'm getting you know,

231
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: this fires me up. So I love coming to work

232
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: every day and working with everyone here. And it's it's special.

233
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: It's a special organization, this is a special team. I

234
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: know the results aren't where we're at, but that's in

235
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: the past. We can only focus on today and find

236
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: a way to get a win today.

237
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 3: The messaging like when Tom Cofflin, he used to say

238
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 3: that the beginning of this Wednesday meeting, you should lay

239
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 3: out everything for the.

240
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 4: Team, right.

241
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 3: The rhetoric outside of the building is okay, the loser

242
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 3: here is in mind for the number one overall pick.

243
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 3: Do you bring that up to the guys at all?

244
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: Is it even part of your messaging, like, hey, ignore that,

245
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 3: don't pay attention to that, just you know, to nap

246
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 3: anything like that or the sort.

247
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: I haven't. I haven't talked about it with the players.

248
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: The players want to win, the coaching staff wants to

249
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: win this week, like this is our only focus is

250
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: this week, and so are all our messaging all that

251
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: we're talking about is how we can get better number

252
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: one as a team, and then what we have to

253
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: do today to go out there to Vegas and bet the.

254
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 4: Raiders with them duel. The last three games, it feels

255
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 4: like he's gotten better and better, not just with the numbers,

256
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 4: for just his energy as motor. What do you say

257
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 4: to him and tell him you.

258
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: Know, hey, sorry, sitting again with him du bu the last.

259
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 4: Three games feel like he's fine, hitting it, turning a corner.

260
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 4: I'll say, how do you just tell them to just

261
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 4: keep going and just not you know, not necessarily not

262
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 4: get complacent, but just keep building on this for to

263
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 4: end the rookie year strong for him.

264
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: I think when you when you put in the work

265
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: and you have your you have a plan, and then

266
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: you go and have success, I think that kind of

267
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: proves to you that that's hey, this is the kind

268
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: of the recipe. There's really no substitute for for the

269
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: hard work, for the dedication of the time. And when

270
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: you put that process in, you continue to work through

271
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: that process. Because I'm sure even though he came in early,

272
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 1: he's looking at certain things he goes, Okay, well how

273
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: can I make this more efficient? Well more can I

274
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: add to that, well, maybe there's some things I can

275
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 1: subtract that that that I don't necessarily need that at

276
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: that point in time. So he's working through that process

277
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: as a young player. But when you see success, that's

278
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: going to continue to charge them forward and get more, Like,

279
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: where can I get more? Where's another edge I can

280
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: go grab to make myself a better player. So when

281
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: you see young players doing that like a duel and

282
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: there's you can I can go up and down the

283
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: roster in terms of the guys that are doing that,

284
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: you know you're going to see the results and you

285
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: got to believe that
