Yeah, 47 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 2: that's a possibility. We'll have to see as week goes 48 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 2: on in terms of personnel groups whether we feel like 49 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: we have to do that or not. Uh, you can 50 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: pick it up other ways too, you know, other guys 51 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 2: versatile players, you know, the bigger guys can go out, 52 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: the smaller guys can come down. We could do it 53 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: that way too, So we have to see what we do. 54 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: But I wouldn't be opposed to that. I mean, those 55 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 2: guys are doing a nice job in the practice squad 56 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: as well, So that's gonna be an important, important, important 57 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 2: factor for us on defense, is filling those reps up 58 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 2: because Tavius is a real physical, real physical edge player, 59 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 2: a real hard playing guy, and we're gonna need that. 60 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: We're gonna need that to be no drop off of 61 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: those reps that are taken. 62 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 6: Bears are on a. 63 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 4: Good run, what if the team then in. 64 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 6: A particularly that game from that? 65 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think they've done a nice job 66 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 2: playing you know, winning football. They've uh, they're starting to 67 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 2: get a feel offensively, they've scored some points and the 68 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 2: defense is playing better and better, so they're playing good footballs. 69 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 3: How much kind of ramp if you guys. That would 70 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: be much ramp up time when you're not probably be 71 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: a specific But I think secondly you can how much 72 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 3: of a boost is who do adapt you do? 73 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 7: Well? 74 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's really it's a big deal. I mean, 75 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 2: in in this league, you know, players are it's a 76 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: players league, you know. I think back to Clarence Brooks, 77 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: you know, he said it's it's always been a players game, 78 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 2: and it always will be a players game. That's never 79 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 2: gonna change. And that's really the truth. So having your 80 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 2: players on the field is important. It's and uh a 81 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: player like that, like Row, or a player like any 82 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: anybody else. All the other guys, the guys that came 83 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: back last week. You see the difference it made, you know, 84 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: between the week before and last week. So it's a 85 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: it's a big boost. 86 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 3: John. 87 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 4: I think Wednesday is the deadline for you guys to 88 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 4: activate Memory. 89 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 8: For the fifty three. 90 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 6: Is that something you. 91 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 8: Guys are gonna do? 92 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: Well? Yeah? Uh, Memory is not gonna be cleared by 93 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: the doctor for this week, So the doctor hasn't cleared 94 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: him yet to be uh to be activated for this week. 95 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: So uh, if it's not this week, it it would 96 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 2: be next week. So it's up to the doctor. No, 97 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 2: we're not gonna put him on season ending. R oh, 98 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: I got you, okay, yeah, he he. I don't think 99 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: he'll be up this week just for that reason, cause 100 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 2: the doctors hasn't cleared him yet and we're not gonna 101 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 2: put him on season season ending. Ir right. 102 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 3: In terms of you such, it's a little bit for 103 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: the three week in terms of the reset, How valuable 104 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 3: was it given you know, the difficulty relant so cool? 105 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 2: How valuable? 106 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 3: So uh, how valuable was it to have the time 107 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 3: to kind of reset, refocus, How important you know for 108 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 3: for that by week become what it did. 109 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: It's very valuable. I mean it was it was it 110 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 2: was eat it, you know, as an opportunity for us 111 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 2: and to what to do a couple of things. I mean, 112 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: one thing was to help us get healthy for sure, 113 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: and that's I don't think we could have been more 114 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 2: more more injured at that point in time for the 115 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. So that's a big part of it. 116 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: And then for us to take a look at everything 117 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: we're doing, I think we're doing a lot of great things. 118 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: You've got to take you got to take it into 119 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 2: understanding you know who's out there and who's not playing, 120 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 2: So you don't want to overreact. You just want to react, 121 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: you know, you want to react. You want to understand 122 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: where you're going, reset and reattack, you know. And that's 123 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 2: really what we're gonna do. We're gonna reattack uh this week. 124 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 5: Just go back to the old line with them. 125 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 3: Where it is that any of those positions, is that 126 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 3: something you still look at as as you know, we 127 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: might make a chance here, we're still evaluating that or well. 128 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I think you know the way the question 129 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 2: is asked. I think everything is always under consideration, you know, 130 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: And and that position you guys ask about a lot, 131 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 2: for sure, but it's true for every position. I mean, 132 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 2: you look at every single guy. As Jerry Rosberg said, 133 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 2: the evaluations are comprehensive, an ongoing, and that's just the 134 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 2: fact you make it. You evaluate everything every single day, 135 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 2: and coaches do it completely uh in uh from everything 136 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 2: from individual reps to group reps, the team reps, the 137 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: practice reps to game reps, the game reps being the 138 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 2: most important reps. Everything is great and everything's evaluated, and 139 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 2: you play the guys you know in different spots that 140 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 2: do that they're playing the best. And that's what coaches 141 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: spend their time doing. I promise you nobody has a 142 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: better understanding of of that of the offensive line, or 143 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: of the quarterback room, or of the wide receiver room 144 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 2: or the dB room. Then the than the coach is 145 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 2: coaching that those guys every single day. I mean, they're 146 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 2: studying it, they're on it. It's it's there. It's what 147 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: they do, you know. And uh and so that you 148 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 2: look at all that and you say, Okay, this gives 149 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: us the best chance to be successful with this this 150 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: guy or this group or whatever. So that's where we're at. 151 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 2: So when you see a group go out there or 152 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: a player go out there, that's that's the guy who 153 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 2: gives us the best chance, who's playing the best all 154 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: things considered. So that's where att now, Emory he's had 155 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks now practice. He's shown a lot 156 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 2: of good things, but he's also has a lot to learn. 157 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 2: Just being honest about there's a lot that goes into it, 158 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 2: and he hasn't had all through training camp really to 159 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: work the finer points out of the pass protection or 160 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: the calls and things like that. But I do think 161 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: he has a chance to be a factor this year. 162 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 2: You know, he's he's looking good and uh, he's talented, 163 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: he's tough, and he wants to do well. He works 164 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 2: real hard.

Took a look at Miami a little bit. 184 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: But you focus really on yourself in the bye week, 185 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: I mean the molt. The bulk of it is on yourself, 186 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 2: and then you work ahead into the Indian ext opponent 187 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 2: for sure, and then you get a chance to kind 188 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: of take a look at some other things probably on 189 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: the side. But like you said, different different coaches are 190 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 2: involved with, different analysts are involved with, you know, working 191 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: out a no further. 192 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 5: You know, it's good started obviously a little small margin 193 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 5: going forward to. 194 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 6: YouTube any of the math to say, Okay, what I 195 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 6: will will take us to get to. 196 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 9: Like by the end of season, coming and wins. 197 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 2: Things like that, It's not that hard to figure out. 198 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: It's pretty simple math. I don't have to think that 199 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: long about it, to be honest with you. And I know, 200 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,599 Speaker 2: I know that winning the next game would go a 201 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: long way in helping us. That's what I really understand. 202 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: You know, That's what I think we all, all of 203 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: our players, all of our coaches.

That's probably a I don't know 224 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: a percent. There's ninety nine percent of the other stuff 225 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 2: we're working on. We're we're talking about. You talk about 226 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 2: what direction you want to go. You talk about kind 227 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 2: of what personality want to have in different situations, what 228 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: calls apply to that personality, Who we want to put 229 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 2: where to do those different jobs, you know, how we 230 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 2: want to substitute guys out and off the field. Uh, 231 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 2: those are all It's just it's a lot, you know, 232 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: it's it's it's exhaustive and it's fun. It's what we 233 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 2: love to do and it's exciting because we have a 234 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: lot of good players, you know, and we have a 235 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: lot of good scheme. And then as far as the offense, 236 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 2: what was the question about that it seemed like there was. 237 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 5: More of a good running the ball against the Rays. 238 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 5: We we see the kind of the previous week, and 239 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 5: I know you have fought its talked about with Todd 240 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 5: kind of finding a. 241 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 2: Better rhythm because I think I think the offense is 242 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 2: like you know, there's a commitment to running the ball 243 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: for sure, and that's that's the Ravens. I mean, if 244 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 2: we don't want to get away from that. You know, 245 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 2: we believe in running the ball. We believe in stopping 246 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 2: the run. A lot of teams don't, you know, a 247 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 2: lot of teams don't think it's important. You'll hear a 248 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: lot of metric people, analytics people say that's not important. 249 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: So but it's just kind of it's it's our it's 250 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 2: our DNA. You know, we believe in it. We want 251 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: to be able to do it. And so that hasn't 252 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: really changed throughout the course of the season. We've we 253 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: haven't done it as well as we want to do it. 254 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: But we did and we did it better against the 255 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: Rams for sure, and that was that was encouraging. So 256 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 2: you know, we've got to find a way to keep 257 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: building on that. But the conversation was about much more 258 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,439 Speaker 2: than that. It was about how we want to structure 259 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 2: the offense going forward schematically, and how we want to 260 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 2: how we want to try to create problems for people 261 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: to defend the players that we're putting on the field 262 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 2: and create opportunities for those guys the best way we 263 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 2: can and uh and keep ourselves, keep people off bounds 264 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: as much as we can.

I'm I'm putting all that in 432 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 7: the coaches' hands. The coaches give us what we need 433 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 7: to do, and we try to go from there. The 434 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 7: biggest thing I'm trying to do is just to do 435 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 7: my job, do my assignment, and kind of do my 436 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,479 Speaker 7: own independent studies.

But uh to give answer. 440 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 7: I think we all been trying to figure that out 441 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 7: for you know, really five ga or four games, five 442 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 7: games straight, hevery man, we've lost, and so we we're 443 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 7: still searching for that. Hopefully we'll we'll kind of figure 444 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 7: out some things and get some wins. 445 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,719 Speaker 9: Does there sell faith that the coaches can put you 446 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 9: in those. 447 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 3: Spots to to is there the things you need to do? 448 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 11: Is there? 449 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 9: What is it still faith? Do you guys still have 450 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 9: faith that the coaches, what they're telling you is still 451 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 9: the things that will result in the six the succession. 452 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 7: I think the best thing we've done is players this 453 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 7: year is we haven't really questioned the coaches. I I think, 454 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 7: you know, even though we have a losing, you know record, 455 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 7: obviously there there really hasn't been a lot of you know, 456 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 7: turmoil and turmoil and guys turning on each other. I 457 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 7: feel like we have been in this all together. I 458 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 7: think that's the there's one positive for the the first half, 459 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 7: I would say it would be that there there's been 460 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 7: There has definitely been a want to, There's been a 461 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 7: a trust there and you know, I I do believe 462 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 7: that we are very close. It just close in this 463 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,479 Speaker 7: league is is is not enough? You just gotta do it, 464 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 7: and everybody in in our room is it's definitely still 465 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,239 Speaker 7: on the mindset that we still can't do it, and 466 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 7: I believe we can and I think everyone else believes 467 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 7: as well. So it's another opportunity to to go out 468 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 7: there and try to do it. 469 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 3: Maryland, there's one in five.

Do you look at 494 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 3: the teams that you have to be coming up and 495 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 3: doing for. 496 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 7: The second it would be nothing greater if we could 497 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 7: beat the Chicago Bears this Sunday. I mean, it's I mean, 498 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 7: I think you just we are one and five. We 499 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 7: were like one and five. We so we've we've won 500 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 7: one game, lost five games. The other thing I think 501 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 7: anybody wants to do is just to win one game. 502 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 7: If you're focused on anything other than that, I hope 503 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 7: you let somebody know because you need to either meet 504 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 7: with our mental health person or somebody, because we need 505 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 7: to focus on one game, one practice. I just want 506 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 7: to win a game. That would be like really cool. 507 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 7: I'd be really happy it's just not fun to lose games. 508 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 7: It's something I told the defense. I've never really been 509 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 7: a loser in my entire life. I'm not really cool 510 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 7: with being a loser. I'm not really comfortable with being 511 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 7: a loser. So I just want to win one game. 512 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 7: And if that's not everybody's mindset, there needs to be 513 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 7: a sit down and figure it out how we can 514 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 7: get that on your mindset, because I think that's the 515 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 7: that's going to be the way, the only way going 516 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 7: forward for us. 517 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 12: To win one game. 518 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: That was cornerback Marlin Humphrey.

But you know, it all starts up front, 641 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 6: like you said, and you know it starts with me 642 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 6: all the way down to Rownie and each guy down 643 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 6: the line got to do their individual drops, one play 644 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 6: at a time, just staying focused, you know, to make 645 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 6: an emphasis this back half of the season of being 646 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 6: extra physcal too. So that's kind of my mentality on 647 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 6: these next few games going in. 648 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, you say extra physical, I mean it's the short 649 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 3: yardage plays that we were all talking about because last game. 650 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 4: Is that the symptomatic of the physicality, do you think, 651 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 4: or yeah, something else? 652 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,479 Speaker 6: I think it's I think it's short yardage, pass downs, 653 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 6: normal downs, you know, just finishing plays, you know, because 654 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 6: it all starts up front and especially especially this galley. 655 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 6: It trickles down to you know, tight ends and receivers 656 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 6: going in there in the block.
