1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,559
Speaker 1: A real physical, hard to tackle back. I would say,

2
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: were you guys gassed a little bit in the fourth quarter?

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that. I felt like we were playing

4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: pretty solid and we just he's just a hard person

5
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: to tackle. I would say, what sort of challenges did

6
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: that Texans offensive line give you, guys? Um, I really

7
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: would say that they're very good offensive line. But at

8
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: the same time, I felt like we kind of beat

9
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: ourselves in a in a way. I mean, it was

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,599
Speaker 1: really us for sure, just not doing our job. Do

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 1: you feel like, you know, for most of the game

12
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: until the last time we broke up the long run,

13
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: it was just set in the right direction and turns

14
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: around the time. Oh yeah, we definitely stepped up from

15
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 1: the week before and we just continue to improve from there.

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: When it's the lowest going a game like that. The defense,

17
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: I mean just we're kind of we're kind of you know,

18
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: attitude you guys, or remind set you guys go out

19
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: with there with east trick, you know, knowing that you

20
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: know want to play could just at the game. Um,

21
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: as a defensive line, we're just thinking to stop run

22
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: at all times, just keep on getting penetration, keep on

23
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: knocking things back and hopefully it works out for us.

24
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: How are you feeling right now? I mean, how's the

25
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: locker room after this loss? I mean, back to back

26
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: loss has been a strong start to the year. But

27
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: do you guys, do you see a resilience or frustration

28
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: level starting to build inside the locker room? I feel

29
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,759
Speaker 1: like this game definitely was disappointing for us, but at

30
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: the same time, there's always something to learn from and

31
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: I feel like as a team, we know we can play,

32
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: We know we can win games. You know we can

33
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: keep on pushing win winning more games later on in

34
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: the season. And yeah, just just to understand that who

35
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: we are and how we can keep on attack and

36
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: getting better each week. The last time you'll play the Colts,

37
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: y'all shut them out. You know you're gonna get their

38
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: best shot this week? That as a defense, do you

39
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: prepare for that just the same way we prepare any

40
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: other week, just knowing we have to stop a run. No,

41
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: we have to get out to the quarterback and affect

42
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: him and just keep on being violent and causing panic

43
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: in the backfield. You feel like done a good job

44
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: and mindset of flushing game after a loss, moving quickly Yeah,

45
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: he stays pretty positive with us. I mean, obviously we

46
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: have some negative things both on both sides of the

47
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: ball that we have to address and whatnot. But he's

48
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: pretty positive coach. He pushes us to be better and

49
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: he leads us in that way. You've been here for

50
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: a few years now, how do you do you see

51
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: a difference in the way the team this year deals

52
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: with a loss than in some of the years past.

53
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I feel like we're a lot more positive,

54
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: positive this year, and we understand that we can really

55
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: win games, really a solid team, not like we weren't before,

56
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: But it's just a different mentality now. How important or

57
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 1: how big of a role has Coach Peterson been in

58
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: stealing that belief in the locker room? I would say

59
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: a huge role. I mean he is a leader in

60
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: our organization, and um, he does a great job at it.

61
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: You see Mike Caldwill growing to his defensive coordinating role

62
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: over the first few weeks of the season, He's been

63
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: doing a great job. He calls some plays that works

64
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: for us up front, at least from what I can

65
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: talk about, and he does a good job at that.

66
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: He keeps positive energy and really lets us know what

67
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: things we can correct and get better out on the field.

68
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: What kind of impact does full we have, you know,

69
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: just puts the way it plays next door? What kind

70
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: of impact that he had on the line when he's

71
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: there in the game, when you guys have he's a

72
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: very violent individual, very very hard to block, very big guy.

73
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 1: So I mean, for me, that inspires me even more,

74
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: just another big guy next to me to push harder,

75
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: go harder on the game. Has you been someone who

76
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: kind of leaning on the shooters in terms of going

77
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: to for any questions or anything like that. Just don't

78
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: He's an older player. I'm always looking for somebody to

79
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: get some tips from. He's obviously been in the league

80
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: a few more years than I have, and it's always

81
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: a good bouncing off ideas type of deal. Defense has

82
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: pitched some pretty good games to start the year. How

83
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: do you guys continue to improve as the year goes on.

84
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: Just keep on being fundamentally sound and keep on working

85
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: on our techniques in order to be better, I mean,

86
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: and also just keep on elevating our game. What's the

87
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: defensive line rotation like for you guys? I mean, when

88
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: you've got players like to want smoothing arden key that

89
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: that are kind of mixing in there. What's that like?

90
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: Um hm, that's pretty even for the most part. I

91
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: mean we obviously there are certain players who do play

92
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: a little bit more, but it does help when they

93
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: come in and mix up the game a little bit

94
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: more for us inside. Especially what's the energy like that

95
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: some of those guys bring just to the meeting rooms.

96
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: A lot of energy, especially art and as you guys

97
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: may know, but uh yeah, a lot of energy. Is

98
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: a run game when you're going against the Colts team,

99
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the first thing you guys look at.

100
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I know most weeks you're say, okay, we'll

101
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: stop the run first. But when you go against the

102
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: back like Jonathan Taylor, if he does play this week,

103
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: is that I mean, that's got to be job number

104
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: one that you don't want him to start going off.

105
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we definitely have to stop the run. I mean,

106
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: that's it. Every week. That's the only way we can

107
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: really succeed if we're stopping a run on first and

108
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 1: second down. And this week is no different. Really, there's

109
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: anything else, all right than appreciate appreciate you go up

110
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: from
