1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,680
Speaker 1: And the Marcus. How's the off season going, good man,

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: it's just me and you whatever. Well hap, I'll take it.

3
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: It's funny for every every offseason there's always a lot

4
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 1: of sort of roster turnover and defensive line. It doesn't

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: look like there's all that much obviously Sam Roberts and

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: I know there's an undrafted guy, but you know how

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: happy you're used to have the majority in the core

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: of your group returned for another year. Very happy. So

9
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: it's always good when you're working with guys who's been

10
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: in the program, especially our guys. We've got some veteran guys.

11
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: It's coming back for within our program the six year

12
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: you know, two guys coming six years, second year or

13
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: third years. So it's good because we can continue to

14
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: hit on those the foundation that we've left off from

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: the previous year and then continue to stack on their gains.

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: And you know, we know each other, so it's it's

17
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: good to always have that correbtiy in the room. And

18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: with Sam Roberts acially a small school guy, I frankly

19
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: love those type of stories. Where did you see from

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: him in the pre draft process? Just a guy that

21
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: was had the ability to dominate in the league that

22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: he was playing in. You know, guys who was able

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: to compete at a high level. You know, he had

24
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: mass effort to the football and actually he showed the

25
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: tools in the ring game and pass game to you know,

26
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: to be a part of our team. And uh he

27
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 1: one more Christian Barrymore. I thought you a great year.

28
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: You know, what does he have to do to take

29
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: that year two jump and just take another step? Just

30
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: continue to work, you know, just like everybody else. You know,

31
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: every every rookie comes in and uh uh, you know

32
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: it's new to him. And then that second year that

33
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: you know, most of all all rookies have a have

34
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: a jump, but for for him and just like everybody

35
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 1: on the defensive line, just come in with a willing

36
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: attitude the work, the willing attitude to get better every

37
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: day and just you know, stack those days up every day,

38
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: every week, every month, and then you know, and just

39
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: work and see where it falls. Good offseason so far

40
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: for you, Yeah, it's been great. Uh, mix of good

41
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: family time, mix of work and so it's been good

42
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: for us. Good. Yeah, I can't complain. Got two kids

43
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: five and three, so they keep me busy. I'm on

44
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: my toe is pretty much constantly, but I love it.

45
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: Five and eleven months got wonted out to be one

46
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: on the twenty six. Awesome man, congrats, that's great. Thank you, Mink,

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: and we'll do your next question from Karen Greegan. Hey, DeMarcus,

48
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: how are you are you doing? Karen? You know all right? Yeah,

49
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: I'm tuned well. I think Mark might have asked about Barmore,

50
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 1: but if not, Um, we're talking about a year to

51
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: leap obviously, and what specifically would you like to see

52
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: from him to improve on the year he had the

53
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: first year? I would say all I would ask for

54
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: all my players, especially at this point right now, to

55
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: come in on a daily basis, to work hard, all right,

56
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: to make small improvements because if they improve, we improve

57
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: that of the team. So for him and everybody on

58
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: the D line, everybody on the defense, and for our team,

59
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: I would say, we're just looking for improvements, daily improvements

60
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: that we can all get better from. That's what we're

61
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: really looking for. And if you're able to do that, UM,

62
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: I think he'll be be good. Will there be um?

63
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: You know, an emphasis? I guess there's always an emphasis

64
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: on you know, trying to do a better job stopping

65
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: the run or containing the run. And you know what's

66
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: the approach there. Yeah, so hopefully we can stop the run.

67
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: That's my job as the as our job as a

68
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: defensive line and as a defense to stop the opponent.

69
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: So hopefully we can stop the run. Hopefully we can

70
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: stop it from you know, catching pass and hopefully we

71
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: can do all that stuff. But that's that's the goal

72
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: of mine is to have a good front to where

73
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: we can have ability to have a good run defense

74
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: and a a good pass defense and uh and more most importantly,

75
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: just a total good defense. That's that's that's our goal,

76
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: and that's what we're trying to do, trying to uh,

77
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 1: you know, not look ahead to the to the season,

78
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: try to stack each day up, trying to focus on

79
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: you know, each day improvements and really just take advantage

80
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: of this offseason, work on our fundamental as our technique,

81
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: and then you know where we're at as far as

82
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: in the run game, in the past game, but come

83
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: a little bit later. Great. Thank you, DeMarcus, Thank you
