He 40 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 4: was two defenders on him, a corner in the linebacker, 41 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 4: I believe. And I'm just tryna get space away from 42 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 4: fifty five cause he was like a tall guy, and 43 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 4: I believe if you'd just pulled me, he probably would 44 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 4: have sacked me or something like that. So I was 45 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 4: just trying to stay far away, f f far away 46 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 4: from him. As I could but try to keep enough 47 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 4: balance to get to throw off. And that's just all 48 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 4: it was. 49 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 3: You know, Mark doesn't feel like it's uh lots of 50 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 3: Europe twenty thirty four, or. 51 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 4: You don't really don't we feel like the season just 52 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 4: getting started.

Yeah, but I'm trying to 93 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 4: win the games, so it really don't matter. If it happens, 94 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 4: it happens, if it don't, probably would happen sometime down 95 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 4: a line. 96 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: Almar. 97 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 8: Since the byeweek, we've seen a big up taking the 98 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 8: pistol runs. H Before the BIE week, it was a 99 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 8: lot of under center runs and do. 100 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 3: You notice that? 101 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 8: And uh, what what is k Have you noticed the 102 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 8: benefit that you guys have had out of running more 103 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 8: out of pistol? 104 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 4: I I believe it's just the scheme versus teams that 105 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 4: make us like change it up a bit. 106 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:31,799 Speaker 3: You know, we gotta keep it balance. 107 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 4: We can't just go into a game, a NFL game 108 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 4: with that and just do the same thing from probably weed. 109 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 4: You know, like teams are probably pinpoint, Oh they doing 110 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 4: this when they do this, when they line up like this, 111 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 4: they doing this. It's only a couple of outside of 112 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 4: this stuff like that, So we gotta change it up 113 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 4: a bit. 114 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 5: Or obviously say Flowers had a great rookie year this year, 115 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 5: he's taking it to even another level in your opinion, 116 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 5: you know what's it been that's made the. 117 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 3: Difference for him us? 118 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 4: I can't call it like when he entered the league 119 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 4: last year, you know, he was the same, like he 120 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 4: just got that that the get him, like he he 121 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 4: just wanna be the best he can be, be the 122 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 4: best receiver he could be in the lead and that's 123 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 4: the football league and just try to help his team win. 124 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 4: And him being a young player and what he bring 125 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 4: it to the table is like, that's what you need 126 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 4: out of young guys. 127 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 3: You need a lot of young guys to be the 128 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 3: same way.
