1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,639 Speaker 1: Speaking of Mend's health, how are you feeling? You took 2 00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 1: a couple of pops in that game. I know we 3 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:06,280 Speaker 1: asked you the same question last week. Looked like after 4 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: that Leonard Williams sack in particular, you were you're reaching 5 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: down for the leg there. How's how's everything feeling today? 6 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 2: Feel good? You know, obviously a couple you know, routines 7 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 2: post game soreness, but overall, feel feel healthy. 8 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 3: So we saw you early in the game have to 9 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,479 Speaker 3: use your legs again, but this time more to sort 10 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 3: of scramble to throw the ball. Got a nice connection 11 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 3: going with Hunter. Henry. Uh, how do you think that 12 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 3: played out? I know it's not ideal necessarily, but do 13 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 3: you feel like you handled some of that early pressure 14 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 3: well and we're able to make the best of it. 15 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. It's like you said, it's definitely not ideal, 16 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 2: but having that ability to to extend plays and you know, 17 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: obviously try to work on keeping my eyes down the 18 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: field to keep guys down a field insight. You know, 19 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 2: I think I think it went well. Obviously being able 20 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 2: to connect with Hunter, he made a lot of good 21 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 2: plays and a scramble rule aspect of the game, and 22 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 2: you know, it's but yeah, like you said, it's definitely 23 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: not ideal, but having that ability definitely helped. 24 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: Was that part of the game plan going into the 25 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 1: installation of the offense this week going a Hunter a lot? 26 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 1: Or was that something that just sort of made itself 27 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: available as the game went on and that you just 28 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: kept sort of going back to. 29 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: I think the little mitchure of both. You know, we 30 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: definitely thought we had a favorable matchup with Hunter with 31 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 2: a lot of the guys that were gonna cover in, 32 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: and we definitely tried to exploit it. And then you know, 33 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: throughout the game a lot of it just you know, 34 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: happened organically, and you know, I think he made a 35 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: lot of good plays yesterday, and you know, it was 36 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: definitely definitely a good day for him. 37 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 3: Watching practices this summer, there were two guys that you 38 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 3: seem to go to a lot throughout many days of practice, 39 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 3: and it was Hunter Henry and Pop Douglas. Obviously, Hunter Henry, 40 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 3: you continue to do that on the game field. Haven't 41 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 3: been able to get to Mario Douglas involved with the offense. 42 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 3: No targets yesterday? Is that scheme is that you not 43 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 3: having time to find him, Like, why haven't you guys 44 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 3: been able to a cup. 45 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 2: I mean, it's something that we're working on, that's for sure. 46 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: You know, obviously, you know he's a he's a dynamic player, 47 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 2: and you know, me as a quarterback obviously has to 48 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: find ways to get him the ball. But it's definitely 49 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 2: something that we're looking at. You know, I want to 50 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: get into the overreaction thing about why this or that 51 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: not happening it's the second game of the season, but 52 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: it's definitely got to find ways to get him the ball. 53 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: You know, he's that good of a player that, you know, 54 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 2: we honestly got to find ways to get a lot 55 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 2: of our steel players the ball and get them more 56 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 2: involved in the game. So so yeah, I think I 57 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: got to take responsibility for that. 58 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 3: So Douglas has expressed a little frustration with not getting 59 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 3: targets getting the ball, and I'm sure you've dealt with 60 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 3: that at some point over your career with other wide receivers. 61 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: How does that go when a receiver is frustrated not 62 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 3: getting the ball talking to you, talking to the coordinator, 63 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 3: how does that play out? 64 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I I was, I mean, I'm glad 65 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: he's frustrated me. I mean, you know what I mean. 66 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: If he wasn't, that would be it would be more 67 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 2: alarming to him not getting the ball, to be honest 68 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 2: with you, But you know, you just explain to him, man, 69 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 2: it's you're don't have those games where it happens like that. 70 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: But you know, like I said, it's the second game 71 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: of the year. You know, we're still trying to figure 72 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: out our identity and you know how this thing's gonna 73 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 2: play out as far as the offense. So you know, 74 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 2: it's a long season ahead, I told him. And it's 75 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 2: fifteen games left, you know, right, I think we played 76 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: it's seventeen games now, so fifteen games left. Man, it's 77 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: a it's a lot of football left ahead of us. 78 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 2: You know. Obviously, you know we're still getting better, you know, 79 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: as a as a whole, individually, as an offense, you know. 80 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: So no, I'm glad that hes frustrated, but you know, 81 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: obviously I use the frustration towards the right the right, 82 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 2: the right way. 83 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: What type of adjustments did Seattle make that you noticed 84 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: out there in the second half, because it seemed like 85 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: you were doing a lot more of what you wanted 86 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: to do in the first half on that touchdown drive, 87 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: a nice mixture of passing and running, and then in 88 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: the second half it seemed like they made it a 89 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: lot tougher. What did they do differently that maybe got 90 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: you guys sort of thrown off a little bit. 91 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: I think we just hit a low man. It was. 92 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: It was weird because I thought we were having some 93 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: good plays. I mean, obviously went through and out a 94 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: couple of times, which is not definitely not a deal 95 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: putting our defense back out and steel, you know, but 96 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: I think we kind of just hit a loll and know, 97 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: we had like a lot of when we go back 98 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: and watch film, it's I know, it's obviously like a 99 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 2: lot of people that watch the game don't understand the 100 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: scheme and things like that. We had a lot of 101 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: self and clipping things where you know, we kind of 102 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: put ourselves behind on the eight ball, and then we 103 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 2: kind of I think we kind of made it more 104 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 2: tough on ourselves then. You know, then I would say them, 105 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 2: to be honest with you. 106 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: With a short week coming up here, obviously you have 107 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: to compartmentalize everything and kind of speed up the process 108 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: of preparing for a good defense in the new York Jets. 109 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: What do you feel like you personally have to do 110 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: to get this passing game off the ground. 111 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 2: No, I mean we we we got to stay true 112 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: to what we know, you know, and just play our 113 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: style of football, you know, and those plays are gonna happen, 114 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 2: you know organically. You know. We obviously, like I said, 115 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 2: we we obviously got to get our receivers in our 116 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 2: passing game more involved. But I think, you know, it's 117 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: just staying within ourselves, staying within the plan, not trying 118 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 2: to go outside the ordinary and do like anything that 119 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 2: you know, we haven't done on the practice field. And 120 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: then I think that I think the passing game will 121 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 2: start to eventually, you know, start to open up a lot. 122 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: You know, there's definitely something that we're obviously you know, 123 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: trying to address, but I think it'll come. 124 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 3: You mentioned post game that you almost felt like they 125 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 3: had to tell when you guys were going to take 126 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 3: some shot plays they went to two deep safeties. Did 127 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 3: you after watching the film talking it over with the coaches, 128 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 3: did you kind of figure that out? Were they just 129 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: lucky and guessing well or what was that all about? 130 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: I think it was a mixture of both, you know, 131 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 2: I think they they understood what what you know, what 132 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: we were trying to do when we got into certain sets, 133 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: you know, I mean, because every team tries to do 134 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: the same thing versus Uh, they brought a couple of 135 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 2: different blitzes that kind of it kind of ties ties 136 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: you up to where you can't, you know, really push 137 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 2: the ball down a field versus them, and and and 138 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: I think that was really it. I think they got 139 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: lucky more than than anything else. 140 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, this time for the Quarterback 141 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: que in the Week brought to you by Northeast Men's Health, 142 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: the experts in treating men's sexual health with five New 143 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: England offices or at Northeast Men's Health dot com. This 144 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: comes to us from James and Sudbury, and he asked, Jacoby, 145 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: how would you characterize your relationship with your wide receivers. 146 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 2: I think it's good. 147 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 3: Uh. 148 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: You know a lot of those guys I talked to 149 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: on a regular outside of just football thangs, so I 150 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: would I would say it's good. 151 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: One of the plays that has gotten a lot of 152 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 3: attention today was the third down sack before the field goal, 153 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 3: which then unfortunately ends up getting blocked. You watch it 154 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 3: on film, and you were under some pretty immediate pressure 155 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: when you watch that. Is there anything you could have 156 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 3: done differently to avoid the sack there? 157 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I want to try to throw it away. 158 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: I think that's probably the best answer. Yeah, try to 159 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: throw it all the way. 160 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: Looking back on it now, obviously there was a couple 161 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: of opportunities for you guys there with with that play 162 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: in particular, and you know, to see a kick get 163 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: blocked like that obviously must have been tough to watch 164 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: the sidelines. Were there were there are other Were there 165 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: other plays that you sort of looked at, you kind 166 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: of hinted at this a minute ago. Were there other 167 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: plays you looked at that you think, man, if we 168 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: had just been able to convert this or that or something. 169 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: Was there another point in the game where you felt 170 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: that way? 171 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 2: Uh? For sure. I mean anytime, I mean winner, you lose, 172 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 2: there's always a couple of plays here and there that 173 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: you always want back. And I think obviously when you 174 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 2: when when you lose a game, everything's kind of get 175 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 2: like it's under a different microscope. But it definitely was 176 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: a couple more plays that I know as a group 177 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: we want it back in you know, like I said, 178 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: we look back at that film. It's just like locking 179 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 2: in in those crucial situations to know to execute a 180 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: little bit better. 181 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 3: Would one of those be the fourth down and overtime? 182 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 3: I know there was some question as to whether a 183 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 3: team that you know, prides itself on running the football 184 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 3: and how well you've run the football maybe would go 185 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 3: forward on fourth and one there and overtime? Did you 186 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 3: were you hopeful of that? Did you expect that? Did 187 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 3: you understand the decision? I know you don't get to 188 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: make those decisions, but what was your view of that 189 00:07:58,640 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: fourth and one decision? 190 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 2: Which which one? Are you talking about? A game? Sorry? Before 191 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: and over? 192 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 3: You know, overtime, fourth and one after you guys had 193 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 3: the third and one and then the penalty, and you 194 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 3: know a lot of fans felt like that was an 195 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 3: opportunity for a team that runs the ball really well 196 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 3: to sort of establish its identity. Instead, you punt it 197 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: away and unfortunately never get the ball back. 198 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, like I said, like you said, I 199 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: don't make those calls that. I think that's more of 200 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: a male question and those guys questions and it is mine. 201 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: All right before you let you go here, Jacoby, it 202 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: was the first game. You weren't here last year, so 203 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: you don't know this or maybe don't remember it, but 204 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: the team had a very very tough time playing at 205 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: home at Gillette going one and seven. How was the 206 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 1: crowd yesterday and how is the general atmosphere here at 207 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,839 Speaker 1: here at Gillette to Dadium. 208 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 2: I thought it was good. I thought it was sweet. 209 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people were there. You know, 210 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: the fans were rocking obviously, you know you hear him 211 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 2: a lot obviously when when the defense had the ball, 212 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 2: which is a good thing. Uh, but it was. It 213 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: was definitely a great turnout. No, no, obviously didn't get 214 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 2: the outcome that we wanted, but you know, looking forward 215 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 2: to the stadium to impact more games and obviously being 216 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: on the other side, you know, we we barred down 217 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: to the wire, but you know you've got to get 218 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 2: on the other side of those are those type of wins, 219 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: those type of games are all. 220 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 3: Right, Thanks Jacoby, That was that was a tough one. 221 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: I know you took a little bit of a beating, 222 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 3: and I know you got a short week here and 223 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 3: a lot of work to do, so, uh, good luck 224 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,239 Speaker 3: getting things together for Thursday night. 225 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 2: Sounds good.
