There's there's uh you know, there's 16 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: there's the whole team's you know, has to play well, 17 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: um to score points and to gain a lot of arts. 18 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: So UM, I think it's a credit to all those 19 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: guys with key guys out and the way guys stepped 20 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: up for you, specifically the receivers. How much does that 21 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: just open up options for the passing game just moving 22 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: forward the rest of the season. Yeah, I think, uh, 23 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: I think it does a ton. I think, um, you know, 24 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: the depth of that position is big for us, and 25 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: a lot of guys coming in, UM, you know, doing 26 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: a lot of different things well and and uh you know, 27 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: kind of playing to their skill set, giving them opportunities 28 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: calling plays based on you know, what they do well. 29 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: And I think you know you saw that and UM, 30 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: you know able to highlight a lot of those guys. 31 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: So that was, um, you know big. You know, those 32 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: guys stepped up. John obviously stepped up and UM, a 33 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: lot of those guys. So it was big for us. 34 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,279 Speaker 1: When you went back and watched that, how much different 35 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: did it did the offense? So if at all considering 36 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you did throw the ball to downfield a 37 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: lot more so when you we're looking at it on 38 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: the film, was it a significant difference? Um, not not really. 39 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: I think, UM, you know the biggest thing was was 40 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: execute it. I thought we executed it better UM on 41 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: the field. I think, you know, there's been opportunities that 42 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: we haven't executed as well, um early on, and and 43 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: we were able to do that. So that's a credit 44 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: to UM. You know, we talked about the guys up front, 45 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: and the receivers are stepped up, so um, you know, 46 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: it takes, uh, takes a whole group. Joe said earlier 47 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: today that since he's been with you, you've weathered a 48 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: lot of storms. Um what do you think he's talked 49 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: referring to there? Um, I don't know. I mean we haven't. 50 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: We haven't won enough games. I mean that's no secret 51 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: at the first up two years and and uh obviously 52 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: this season didn't start how we wanted to or or 53 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: expected it to. So um, those are storms. We've all 54 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: had the weather and and um, you know we've we've 55 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: got to continue to progress and continue to improve. I think, Um, 56 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, it was a big win force, but it's 57 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: over now, and and you know our focus is on 58 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: Dallas and making sure we're prepared this week. You think 59 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: it's made tougher in some way, mentally, physically anyway. Yeah, 60 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: I think so. I think, Um, you know, it's uh, 61 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: it's hard to win this league and doesn't come easy. 62 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: It comes with, you know, a lot of hard work 63 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: and preparation. I think it's you know, taught that lesson 64 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: more than anything. So, um, you know, that's you know 65 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: important every week. Like I said, now the focus is 66 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: is preparing this week, um and making sure we're we're 67 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: prepared to play on Sunday. Daniel, what do you think 68 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: the Dallas defense, especially a couple of those players who've 69 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: turned into playmakers. Yeah, I think it's a good group 70 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: of very talented group. They play fast, um, play hard. Um. 71 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: Talk about some of those guys who made plays. They've 72 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: they've turned the ball over UM a lot, taking the 73 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: ball away um and effected the game. So UM, you 74 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: know we'll have to be aware of some of those 75 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: guys and and UH have a plan for him, but um, 76 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: you know it comes down to us doing what we 77 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: need to do an X cuting Uh as a unit, 78 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: he's taking chances more chances. Is that why he has 79 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: five interceptions? Or what do you attribute that too? Yeah? 80 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: I think I think he is in certain situations. But um, 81 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: like any good corner or d back, he's selective about 82 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: when he kind of takes those chances. So um, being 83 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: heads up for that, you know, and and being aware 84 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: of it. But um, you can tell he's a he's 85 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: a smart player and he knows when to when you 86 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: take those chances. He's successful. When you're throwing those deep balls, 87 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: it seems like that's something you've been really good at 88 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: the last two years. Um. I mean, I think just 89 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: giving guys a chance to make a play and and 90 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: uh keeping it. Um, you know, give give him a chance, 91 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: you know, not throwing it, not trying to overthrow it 92 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: or throw it out of balance. I think more often 93 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: than not, you know a guy is going to go 94 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: up and make a play for you or separate and um, 95 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: our guys have been able to do that, um for us. 96 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: So UM, I think that's part of it. When you're 97 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: throwing a deep ball. Hey, you see twelve You see 98 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: Russ going out there, do you got there in your 99 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: head a little bit of click and say, okay, he's 100 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: a little bit faster. I need to get it out 101 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: there a little fast. Yeah, certainly, I think, Uh, you know, 102 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: I learned that pretty early in camp. Obviously he had 103 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: a injury kept him out of um, you know, the 104 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: back half the camp. But you can see the speeds, 105 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: you can feel it definitely when you throw it. Jason, 106 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: at least prior to this, it kind of has been 107 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: at times he's too vanilla or too conservative, just curious 108 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: what do you think when you hear that? Uh, yeah, 109 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: I mean I certainly don't agree with it. I think, um, 110 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: when you watch the tape and you turn it on, UM, 111 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: you know when you watch other offenses, you know that's 112 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,239 Speaker 1: not I don't. I don't think that's a fair uh 113 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: conclusion to draw from, you know, comparing different schemes. I 114 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: think more than anything, it's a bit been about us 115 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: executing it and and uh taking advantage of some of 116 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: those players that have been there. I thought we did 117 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: a better job on Sunday. UM, so you know, we've 118 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: got to continue to do that. But um, I think 119 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: the opportunities have been there, and uh, I think the 120 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: stuff we're doing on on offense is uh kept defenses 121 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: on their heels. Every coach has talked about how you know, 122 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: Canary said to earn their trust, your trust. I mean, 123 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: where are you at with that? Is he made strides 124 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: now he's been practicing it, he is. I thought he 125 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: had a great week last week in practice and that 126 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: uh kind of translated to the field. Um, and he 127 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: made a ton of plays for us. I think it's uh, 128 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: you can see how dangerous he can be with the 129 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: ball in his hands and making guys miss staying on 130 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: his feet, extending place. So um, you know, we we've 131 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: got to continue to you know, I've got to continue 132 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: to focus on on doing that getting him the ball 133 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, I think he's he's come 134 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: to it with the with the right approach of you know, learning, 135 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: and you know we're we're constantly talking and getting on 136 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: the same page throughout the week as we as we 137 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: came play and Michael Michael Parsons looks like he can 138 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: play inside, he plays outside. How much do you have 139 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: to be aware of where he is pre snap? And 140 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: just what have you seen from him as a rookie 141 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: as a pass rusher especially Yeah, yeah, like you said, 142 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: he's extremely versatile as a player, can rush the passer, 143 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: can play in the box as a linebacker. And I 144 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: think you know his speed jumps off you know the 145 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: tape when you watch him, how quick he is to 146 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: the ball to find the ball, and uh, you know 147 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: how physical he can be. So I think that's it 148 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: recognizing you know where he is, um, you know, and 149 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: and and understanding his speed and how aggressive he plays. 150 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: But he's an extremely athletic linebacker pass rusher, and someone 151 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: will have to be aware of it. In baseball, it 152 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: seems that when a guy is hitting well, did they 153 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: say he's seeing the ball? I mean, are when as 154 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: a quarterback, when you're playing well, are you seeing the 155 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: field better? The defense is better or one? Uh? I 156 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: think it. Uh, you know, there's a lot of things 157 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: that go into it. I think football, different than baseball 158 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: is a is a team game. There's ten other guys that, um, 159 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: you know, or you're out and on and and uh 160 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, so those guys getting open, the guys up 161 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: front protecting or you know, those are huge factors in it. 162 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: And and guys have done that at a high level. So, um, 163 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: I think that's big. I think seeing it, being confident 164 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: and what you're seeing is is also um, you know, 165 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: there's always a part of playing the position.
