Speaker 1: Think about this, what makes this team so impervious to
Speaker 1: outside noise and influences, whether guys are holding out or
Speaker 1: you have almost a near legit tragedy over the last weekend,
Speaker 1: and you guys always seem to be able to you know,
Speaker 1: soon right back in.
Speaker 2: We got great leaders in his locker room, and we
Speaker 2: got people who follow the leaders, and you know, we
Speaker 2: got leaders that echo what the coaches are are preaching.
Speaker 2: And so I think that's the that's the reason our
Speaker 2: locker room is able to stay focused.
Speaker 3: You been able to.
Speaker 1: See Jordan kind of grow up here over the last
Speaker 1: three years.
Speaker 3: In what ways has he grown up?
Speaker 1: And what was it like seeing him do what he did?
Speaker 3: I mean, you've seen it.
Speaker 2: I honestly, every time he touched the ball in my
Speaker 2: recollection he looked like that that he looked like tonight,
Speaker 2: but you know, obviously becoming him more of a probe.
Speaker 2: But he I mean, I'm sure he's grown up over
Speaker 2: than that last couple of years, but it's not like
Speaker 2: I can see a glaring Oh. He matured like he
Speaker 2: came in pretty mature, you know, and uh, he was
Speaker 2: always ready for his opportunity. Even being third fourth back,
Speaker 2: he was always ready. And uh, he came in closed
Speaker 2: a lot of games for us and ran tough, and
Speaker 2: he he earned everybody's respect.
Speaker 4: He said he during the offseason, he had a jugs machine,
Speaker 4: went home, his dad was practicing with him. He really
Speaker 4: took the off season seriously. So did you see more
Speaker 4: focus when he came in this year?
Speaker 2: I didn't see him when he came in cause I
Speaker 2: went here, you know. I don't know if you heard it,
Speaker 2: but nah, I mean yeah, when I came in, I mean,
Speaker 2: obviously just talking to him before before the game. You know,
Speaker 2: we knew he was gonna be RB one today. You
Speaker 2: know when we found out. When we found out he
Speaker 2: was gonna be RB one, you know, I went up
Speaker 2: to him and just you know what, you gave him
Speaker 2: a little little pep talk. See where he was, and
Speaker 2: he was, you know, laser focused, ready to go. And
Speaker 2: I knew from that point on, I ain't have to worry.
Speaker 2: But I knew he was gonna have a a a
Speaker 2: great game. I knew it. So I'm glad he proved
Speaker 2: me right.
Speaker 4: How did you feel game one versus other game ones?
Speaker 1: I mean, what was it a for you?
Speaker 3: Yeah? It was uncharted waters for me.
Speaker 2: You know, I've never been in a situation where I
Speaker 2: didn't have the luxury of being able to knock the
Speaker 2: rust off in camp. You know, I've never came off
Speaker 2: of what six month layoff? Seven month layoff and uh
Speaker 2: right in the game week, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So that was new for me. I really didn't know
Speaker 2: what to expect. I mean, obviously I played a lot
Speaker 2: of football, so I knew it would come back to
Speaker 2: match and know how long it takes. Obviously there's rust involved.
Speaker 2: You know, got to get in football shape. I hadn't
Speaker 2: played football. It's you know, you can't you can't really replicate,
Speaker 2: you know, the the exhaustion that you that you kind
Speaker 2: of put yourself through during the football game, especially old lineman.
Speaker 2: You know, it's like pushing the truck every play, you know.
Speaker 2: So I, I honestly, I didn't know what to expect tonight.
Speaker 2: I have a lot of confidence in myself to to
Speaker 2: go and play at a high level, but like I said,
Speaker 2: it's uncharted water, So I didn't know how much that
Speaker 2: would affect me.
Speaker 3: Me for a week.
Speaker 1: Two, just get him a short week. You had to
Speaker 1: have an ip this week, I mean, are you worried
Speaker 1: about Minnesota at all.
Speaker 3: No, no worry. Are you worried right what it'll feel
Speaker 3: like when you wake up tomorrow?
Speaker 2: No, we got a little cold tub and there. If
Speaker 2: it hurt that bad, I'm gonna go jump in.
Speaker 3: Did you guys? A couple of the del practice was tremendous.
Speaker 1: You could tell you're ready? Could you tell?
Speaker 3: Walking? Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I felt I walked in. I'm like, damn, everybody
Speaker 2: is like laser focus, everybody flying around. It's like not
Speaker 2: a lot of joking going on. It's like we got
Speaker 2: a lot of new players in the locker room that's
Speaker 2: already playing at San Francisco. You know, at what we
Speaker 2: expect around here. So you know, I looked at all
Speaker 2: the young guys and the draft and just like, damn,
Speaker 2: I I n. You know, obviously we had a good
Speaker 2: roster last year. I didn't really see I didn't know
Speaker 2: that they can improve it. But I mean, in my opinion,
Speaker 2: we we improved, you know, and those guys are playing
Speaker 2: their bus.
Speaker 4: Soo Roni who's at a rookie starting his first.
Speaker 2: Start today, Yeah, I'm I'm thrilled to go back and
Speaker 2: watch the game just kind of see how he did.
Speaker 3: Obviously he played well.
Speaker 2: We p we all as a group, ran the ball
Speaker 2: pretty well, we protected pretty well. I think I'm not
Speaker 2: sure what the SAC numbers look like, but you know,
Speaker 2: I can't remember anything, just you know, blatant. But obviously
Speaker 2: his head has to be spinning week one. You know,
Speaker 2: you got a Jets defensive line that's kind of been
Speaker 2: you know, talked about throughout the last couple of years
Speaker 2: as being you know, the defense in all, you know,
Speaker 2: not even just the the line front seven, the cornerbacks.
Speaker 3: You know, we we've heard a lot about him.
Speaker 2: So I'm sure his head was spinning, you know, going
Speaker 2: out there getting his first start.
Speaker 3: But you know, obviously I think he played well.
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it yet, but just going off the results,
Speaker 2: I think he played well.
Speaker 4: He felt like they were doing stunts just for him,
Speaker 4: but he seemed to handle it pretty well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, I mean you got a rookie, you know,
Speaker 2: and you got those type of guys across across from him.
Speaker 2: You're gonna try to test them, you know. So I'm
Speaker 2: pretty sure he did well, I hope.
Speaker 1: So first touchdown, drive, get eleven runs out of twelve. Uh,
Speaker 1: you just Kyle, just getting into it, So let's go.
Speaker 3: What would you feel about now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, obviously we wanted to to keep them,
Speaker 2: keep that D line moving. We didn't want them to
Speaker 2: just be able to pin their ears back and pass
Speaker 2: rush's what they do best. So you know, they want
Speaker 2: to get a runing side to side, get get uh
Speaker 2: JP going downhill like he did, and uh think the
Speaker 2: game plan worked out perfectly.
Speaker 3: You tell your quarterback and like, YO tired, Nah nah,
Speaker 3: I'm definitely not gonna scare them like that. Nah. Alright,
Speaker 3: alrighty y'all take care
