1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Well, initially we thought on our sideline that we we 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,520 Speaker 1: got the first down, so we were preparing for you know, 3 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: obviously getting a call in for first down. And then 4 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: you know, through all of that, I think, you know, 5 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: trying to sort things out where the ball was, different things, 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: and it came up third down and you know, so 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,479 Speaker 1: we had to switch gears there. It was just a 8 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: little bit. I think we got to sort it out. Obviously, 9 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: we gotta figure it out tomorrow, but you know, go 10 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: back watch TV, copy and all that. But um, you 11 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: know that that right there. Um, you know, I don't 12 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 1: think costs us the game, but it was definitely a 13 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: big part of it. Well initially that's what you would see, 14 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: you know, you'd see the official signal it. But you know, again, naked, 15 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: I we thought he you know, I think it was 16 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: Christian Um was well past the down marker. But look, 17 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: that's uh, we gotta check it out tomorrow, um, trying 18 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: to sort through all that before we you know, make 19 00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: a decision on anything. Yeah. That that and again we 20 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, we were under the again under the impression 21 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: it was first down, but it wasn't. And you know, um, 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: and again those are situations to where you know, do 23 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: you want to risk a challenge of time out in 24 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: those situations you know where you you know it's gonna 25 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: at least it's gonna be at worse, it's gonna be 26 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: third and one or third and third and a couple 27 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: of inches, and um, try to get the first down 28 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: that way. Obviously, Yeah, I mean he played well, played tough, physical, Um, 29 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: you know, obviously can't can't do that. He knows that. 30 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: You know. It's something we work on each week. And 31 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: you know, practice Thursday we do a ball security drill, 32 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: a little circuit with them, and um, you know, listen, 33 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: it's uh, that's where we're at as a team right now, 34 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: is we're just kind of learning things the hard way, 35 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: you know. Um, And um, you know, I think plays 36 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: like that change the outcome of a lot of different things. 37 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: And and um, you know, we just gotta keep hanging 38 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: together and keep working and and um, you know, just 39 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: like I told you guys after the game, I mean 40 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: we do that, stick together. You know, good things are 41 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,119 Speaker 1: gonna happen, you know, for them, and and we'll get 42 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: it flipped around. Are you surprised the lack of pass 43 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: rush at this point is I think it's a third 44 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 1: grade game. Maybe just an egregious roughing. Ruffing the past 45 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: are kind of late, you know. Back, Yeah, that one 46 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: too is you know, it's unacceptable there. Um, we got 47 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: the turnover, you know, we got the interception, and we 48 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: had the rough in the pastor and again these are 49 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: these are plays that are that are keeping us back 50 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, um, but we just can't 51 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: do that. You know, we can't do that as as players. 52 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 1: Obviously as coaches, we we gotta be smart too, and 53 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, decisions we make it goes hand in hand. 54 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: And um, those are those are those are big plays. 55 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: I know we kept them to a field goal there, 56 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: but but it definitely changes changes things. You talked the 57 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: weekend and we've got about this team themselves and games. 58 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: How do you eliminate those mistakes with a young team. 59 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: I mean, we just gotta keep working, you know. I 60 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: mean you just you gotta keep showing them, you know. Uh, 61 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: it's it's it's not for you know, um, lack of 62 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: conversation and and talking to him about it and stuff 63 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: like that. I still wanted to play hard and aggressive 64 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: and and and all of that. I don't want to 65 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: take any of that away from him at all. But 66 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: you know you're getting the heat of the battle sometimes. Man, 67 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: you just you just gotta be um, you know, cooler 68 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: heads and and um, just just understand your role. Doug. 69 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: Can you talk a little bit about the decision to 70 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: go for it on the fourth and walking twenty? Was 71 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: it just because of the success you guys have had 72 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: on the ground? Yeah, I mean we were we were 73 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: having really a lot of success on the ground and 74 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: and it was a great situation right there to do that, 75 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: and and um, credit the giants they stopped us, Doug 76 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: it two and five. Are you afraid that you guys 77 00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: are falling out of the ability to stay in contention? Now? Now? 78 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: I mean, we gotta look at everything big picture right now. 79 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: But um, you know we we we can't obviously, you know, 80 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: lose too many more, right, I mean, that's just the 81 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: big picture of you. But you know this, this team 82 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: has got to we get First of all, we gotta 83 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: learn not to not to beat ourselves, you know, and 84 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 1: and just just worry about us. And you know, um, 85 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: I think if we do that and focus internally on 86 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: what we do, the process that we do, then I 87 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: think everything else kind of takes care of itself. Hey, Coachum, 88 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: SiGe Barkley enters the game, second in the league and rushing. Obviously, 89 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 1: you guys made a concerted effort to kind of bottle 90 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: him up. He ends up breaking some late. Daniel Jones really, 91 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: um had a had a big game on the ground. 92 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: What did you see in film that that, Um, that 93 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: you were able to kind of prepare for that and 94 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: or not prepare for that. Well, I thought our defense 95 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: for honestly three and a half quarters just stim met 96 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: their run game, you know, and kept him, um, kept 97 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: him at bay and all of that. Of course, they 98 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: get in there, you know, they getting there for a 99 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: minute four minute offense and things change a little bit. 100 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: But you know, for for those three and a half quarters, 101 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: you know, I thought our defense did a nice job 102 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: stopping the run and handling that. We know Daniel's uh, 103 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: you know, athletic guy, and some of his own read 104 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: stuff he kept and and um, you know, obviously gotta 105 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: look at the film and see see where we dropped 106 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: that one. But you know, again, credit them, you know, um, 107 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: they did what they needed to win the game at 108 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: the end. And uh, coach one more, Um, what what 109 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: what was it if you can say. You know, as 110 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: you mentioned, you haven't watched the film yet, but what 111 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 1: was it that you think allowed Sakwan to kind of 112 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: get off at the end and still get over a 113 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: hundred yards on the day. Well, I mean he's a 114 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: great back, you know, giving him Craty's great back, and 115 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: you know they were in they were in their big, 116 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: big personnel and um, you know, just just did a 117 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: nice job there, you know. I mean that's something we 118 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: gotta take a look at and you know, try to 119 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: be better next time out. Uh, Doug one carey for 120 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: James Robinson, and there was a penalty on the play. 121 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: Your feeling of him not getting the ball and is help? Yeah, 122 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: something we gotta we gotta evaluate him and see where 123 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: he's at, you know physically, um, you know, health wise 124 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: and and and all of that. He's been he's been 125 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: good each week, um, you know, and and and something 126 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: that we've got to really you know, take a look 127 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: at and and and see, I mean we know TJ's 128 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: you know, done a nice job, you know, kind of 129 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: kind of taken over there. And and but we need 130 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: we need everybody. We need James and uh, we've got 131 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in James still and it's not 132 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: anything about you know, lack of confidence or anything. And um, 133 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: we just gotta make sure he's a percent before we 134 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 1: you know, move forward. That final drive of the game, 135 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: Uh came up just short on the final play. What 136 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: do you think about the way your offense was able 137 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: to operate and kind of the way they were able 138 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: to move the ball down a field. Well, I thought 139 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: they did a did a really nice job getting us 140 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: down there with an opportunity to you know, score, tie 141 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,239 Speaker 1: the game and then potentially kicked the game winner. Um, 142 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: things we work on a practice. Obviously it was aided 143 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: by a couple of defensive penalties which obviously helped us. 144 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: But you know, guys, Uh, guys did a nice job. 145 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: Trevor did a nice job getting us down there. You know, 146 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: it was just close at the end there with the 147 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: catch to Christian or the you know completion to Christian 148 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: and you know, uh, our guy's battle right to the end. 149 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: And you talk about Trevor needing those opportunities in those 150 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: big moments. Even though this one another one that didn't 151 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: kind of come together all the way is it's still 152 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: good and something that you can take from that to 153 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: build on. I think so, you know, I think he's 154 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: gained a more confidence and what we're doing and himself 155 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: and and um, you know, these are obviously, you know, 156 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: situations you'd love to pull out and win. But at 157 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: the same time, you know, for him, um, his development, 158 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: his growth, you know, as a leader of this team, 159 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: the offense, I think it's uh is a step in 160 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: the right direction. Coach, you got all of the almost 161 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: nine yards back here the last two home games, but 162 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: you only got twenty three points.
