1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: Is it gonna be weird?

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 2: So is it gonna be week to see Evan Ingram

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 2: on a different sideline this league?

4
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:09,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it'll be.

5
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,319
Speaker 3: It'll be interesting seeing, uh, seeing Evan over there. And

6
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 3: I'd be great to see him. Obviously, they're having a

7
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,159
Speaker 3: great year and I got a lot of respect for

8
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 3: him and we got a great relationship. So so I'll

9
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 3: talk to him a little bit before and after the game.

10
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 3: But yeah, it'll be it'll be interesting to seeing him

11
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 3: over there.

12
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 1: There's nowhere around it. There's a ton riding on the

13
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: see him, right, Yeah. I mean it's a big game.

14
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,159
Speaker 3: I feel like every I mean last week was a

15
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 3: big game, Colts was a big game, and this one

16
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 3: is no different.

17
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean it's a big game for us.

18
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 3: And at this point in the season, with where we're at,

19
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 3: when you've put yourself in position like we have and

20
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 3: like obviously like the Broncos have and like a bunch

21
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,319
Speaker 3: of teams in the AFC have, every game is huge

22
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 3: at the end of the year, which is where you

23
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 3: want to be. So I think there's no secret about

24
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 3: you know how important it is, but it's still just

25
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 3: you know, it's a game and you got to prepare

26
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 3: the same way. You can't put too much pressure on it.

27
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: You just gotta go out there and.

28
00:00:55,280 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: Play special a union is that that you? Yeah, they're

29
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: really really good.

30
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously the numbers are historic, and the way

31
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 3: they're playing and flying around, and it's not just the

32
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 3: group up front, it's the whole defense every level. I mean,

33
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 3: they're they're well coached, they're flying around, they're making plays,

34
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 3: they're physical, they're really good in the back end. Obviously

35
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 3: they're great at rushing the passer. It just works really

36
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 3: well together. The defense is playing really well. It's gonna

37
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: be a challenge for us. So we'll have to have

38
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 3: a great week of practice and a good play going

39
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 3: in for a really good defense. With Bacial out, la

40
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 3: Quinn's opportunities are probably gonna increase.

41
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: Just what have you seen from him? You know, obviously

42
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: he's been in there for third downs, but just as

43
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: a runner as well.

44
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 3: Every time he's got an opportunity with the ball, he's

45
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 3: he's done something with it, you know, and obviously hasn't

46
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 3: gotten a ton just because you know, it's hard to

47
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 3: get it's hard to get through all three guys the

48
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 3: same amount of carries and you know, Travis obviously is

49
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 3: having a great year. Baseil's been doing some really good

50
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 3: things for us, and the Quinn's been such a big

51
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 3: factor and third down and special teams and all that stuff.

52
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 3: So but I know he's gonna be ready for the opportunity.

53
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 3: I mean, you look at every time he gets the ball,

54
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 3: how hard he runs, and some of the four minute

55
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 3: runs last week and before.

56
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's doing a great job.

57
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: So I know he's gonna be prepared and he's gonna

58
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: he's gonna take this opportunity to run with it and

59
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: play well.

60
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: I have no doubt about that.

61
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: Liam gets a lot of credit inside the building for

62
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 2: his communication skills, and I don't want to compare a

63
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 2: built previous guys, but do you feel like that's what

64
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 2: sets him apart.

65
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 3: Maybe he's a really good communicator. I think there's a

66
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: lot of things, you know, that make make him unique

67
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 3: in his personality, and like part of the thing, uh,

68
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: part of one of the that's one of the things

69
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 3: that's great about him is he does communicate really well,

70
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 3: very intentional with how he talks to you know, the staff,

71
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 3: the players, all of us as a team. You can

72
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: tell it's it's very directed, like he knows what he

73
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 3: wants to say and the message he wants to get across,

74
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 3: and there's no there's no gray area. He's very black

75
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 3: and white, very clear, and I think that's really important

76
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 3: obviously for a leader and a head coach. And then

77
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 3: I've talked about just the way he expresses himself and

78
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 3: the passion and just the you can feel it coming

79
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 3: from him, and I think that's something that guys have

80
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 3: really latched onto. That got that that makes guys want

81
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 3: to follow him because you can just see it.

82
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: He kale seems to be the word people use about Grant.

83
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 2: Just working with him so far, how's he helped you

84
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: kind of just consistency dialed in a position.

85
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 3: Just dating in, He's heeled me a lot. I mean,

86
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 3: I uh, he's He's really unique. I've never really met

87
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 3: anyone like him. You know, the way he approaches just

88
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 3: the preparation process, the attention to detail, you know, just

89
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 3: the game planning in general, the things that he thinks

90
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 3: about the conversations that we have throughout the whole week.

91
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's a very very detailed process and

92
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 3: it seems like, I mean, we don't leave. There's there's

93
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 3: no stones that are left unturned, and his approach with

94
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 3: us in the QB room and obviously Spends as well

95
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 3: as a QB coach.

96
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: We're all kind of doing it together and.

97
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 3: The rest of the guys in there, so there's a

98
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: lot of a lot of hands in there that are

99
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 3: that are helping making it go. But obviously Grant is

100
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: one of the big factors and he oversees it and

101
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 3: he's done a great job really just from our conversations

102
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: back in the sp and his just I guess knowledge

103
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 3: is the system and understanding the run game the past

104
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,839
Speaker 3: game and clearly communicating it to me so I could

105
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 3: learn it quickly, you know, when we're installing the system.

106
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: But then now from a game plan, there's so many

107
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 3: specific things that you're looking for when you're planning against

108
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: the defense, and he's helped me a lot see things

109
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 3: quicker pick up on different tendencies the defense might have,

110
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 3: and you know, he's been awesome for me.

111
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 2: A compliment on they're saying, he's never seen you play

112
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 2: like this, essentially, but what have you seen from him?

113
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: Obviously going back to your guys and fundcenter now where

114
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: he's kind of having a run this season.

115
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think just as a player overall,

116
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 3: just his growth and adaptation and how he's become more versatile.

117
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 3: I think you look at what he's doing out of

118
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 3: the backfield. Obviously last week was pretty crazy, the three

119
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 3: receiving touchdowns and the things he was able to do

120
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 3: catching the ball, But just beyond that, how he's been

121
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 3: able to impact the game in that way. Obviously running

122
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: the ball, that's that's something he's always done well and

123
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 3: he's seen it. He has the big playability and the

124
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 3: speed and explosiveness, and I think just overall the way

125
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: he's played his vision, his I mean just overall knowledge

126
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 3: of the system and where certain plays are meant to

127
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 3: go and how he reads it out. I think he's

128
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 3: done an awesome job of putting in the work this

129
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 3: offseason and learning a new system and how we're trying

130
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 3: to target certain runs and where the whether the cutback

131
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 3: or the balance or whatever's there, and learn learning how

132
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 3: to read it based on the scheme.

133
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: I think he's done an awesome job.

134
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,679
Speaker 3: And protection, I think is a huge thing where he's

135
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,239
Speaker 3: I mean, he's grown a lot, and he's really sharp

136
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: and he's done a great job of protecting when he's

137
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 3: in there. Obviously, the Quinn has been in with a

138
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 3: lot of the third downs, but Travis has had a

139
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 3: lot of opportunities too, and he's had some great blocks.

140
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 3: He had a great one against the Colts where he

141
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 3: cut Zaire Franklin on a big play.

142
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: And you know, he's done an awesome job. Said, He's always

143
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: known he's had good hands. You always know.

144
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, he's always he's always been able to catch.

145
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 3: I do he's gotten better though, for sure. I think

146
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 3: he's always had good hands. I think he has very

147
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 3: reliable hands now and he's shown just gotten more fluid,

148
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 3: Like it's it's smoother, you know, he's making tougher catches easier, Uh,

149
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 3: make making them look easier. Sorry, fumble a little bit there.

150
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 3: I just think it's become more fluid for him. But yeah,

151
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: he's always been able to catch, and he's been a

152
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 3: thread out of the backfield can.

153
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: Get pretty loud.

154
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 3: How do you make sure that that crowd noise, how

155
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: does that pact the operations of the offense. Yeah, it's

156
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 3: you know, obviously we've seems like we played a lot

157
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 3: of road games. We just had two back to back

158
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 3: at home, but just part of the operation that you

159
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 3: get used to dealing with, especially this point in the year.

160
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 3: It's gonna be loud. It's gonna be a great environment there.

161
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 3: Just got to communicate clearly, and obviously we're gonna be

162
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 3: on the silent and we got to manage that and

163
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 3: get it in out the huddle so we have time

164
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: to operate and communicate. But yeah, it's I got no

165
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 3: doubt it's going to be loud. So we're gonna have

166
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 3: to be really, you know, really on point with our

167
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,799
Speaker 3: communication and nonverbal communication.

168
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: Make sure we're on the same page.

169
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 2: Leads you on his shoulder after when it's when he

170
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: gets is there some anticipation now that's coming with the

171
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: room amongst you guys.

172
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, we're all fired up, but we're in

173
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 3: there waiting. I'm surprised, right, but he hasn't thrown on

174
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 3: his shoulder. I mean I think, yeah, it's it's funny

175
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 3: just seeing the juice when he comes in there. I mean,

176
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 3: it's guys, guys get fired up about that. It's become

177
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 3: kind of his thing. So I like it. It just happened

178
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 3: and then it stuck and guys look forward to that,

179
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 3: so it gets us going.

180
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 2: Any game on Sunday, But everyone seems calm. It says

181
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 2: that a very calm composed team. Are you surprised by

182
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: that where they adapted to the personality that you bring

183
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: to the offense. I mean it just it seems like

184
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 2: there's just there in a nice spot and not too

185
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 2: driven by the size.

186
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: Of the game.

187
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think it's kind of like I

188
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: was saying earlier, it's I mean, every game at this

189
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 3: point of the year is big, Every game is huge,

190
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: So I think this team is. You know, two weeks

191
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 3: ago and we played the Colts, so everybody was talking

192
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 3: about how big that game was too, and and we

193
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 3: just came out and did our job and we were

194
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 3: able to play well and execute and win the game.

195
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 3: And it's gonna be no different this weekend. You know,

196
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 3: that's our job is to go out there, prepare, put

197
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 3: a great plan together, and go execute, try to go

198
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 3: excute better than the Broncos for sixty minutes, and go

199
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 3: win the game. So it's a really good team. It's

200
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 3: going to be challenging, but it's the same job. You know,

201
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 3: we just got to go out there and play well

202
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:13,679
Speaker 3: and execute.

203
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: Essentially, that's three game stretch of your career, first three

204
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: game stretch with no turnovers. But does it feel does

205
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: it feel different for you right now?

206
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like I'm seeing it really well.

207
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: I think I'm throwing it well, just offensively in general.

208
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: It's not just it's never about just one guy. I

209
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 3: think just as an offense for really SYNCD up right now,

210
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 3: especially in the passing game and protecting up front.

211
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't do anything without that.

212
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 3: And those guys have done an awesome job, and guys

213
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 3: are making a ton of plays down the field world.

214
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 3: We all have a lot of confidence in what we're doing.

215
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 3: It just seems like we got the ball roll in

216
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 3: the last few weeks, so it feels good.

217
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

218
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 3: I don't know to answer your question about compared to

219
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 3: other stretches of my career. I mean, it just feels

220
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 3: like I'm seeing it well. It feels like it's coming

221
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 3: out good. Like I said, guys are making plays, we're

222
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 3: trusting each other, and it's been fun.

223
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: So we just to keep it rolling, all right, than

224
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,080
