1
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: Yes, Yeah, do you ever tell your rocketsive players, I

2
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: throw all the ball to the side, it gets batted

3
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: down and it goes in the end, so jump on it.

4
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: It's two points.

5
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, the thing with us is you go

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 2: into the whistle blow. So obviously that was that was crazy,

7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 2: the whole thing. So I don't know what else to

8
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 2: say about that.

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 3: Definitely, yeah, if you hadn't thought about before.

10
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: I mean even the guy that picked it up, Sharponey

11
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: picked up and he looked like he.

12
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 2: Was just wasn't even thinking correct. Yeah, I know, it's uh.

13
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 2: Obviously they're fortunate to have just picked it up and

14
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 2: then got the two points. So obviously you just want

15
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: to go into the whistle blows and you just never know,

16
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: especially with screens and stuff like that, you don't know

17
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 2: if the ball is going forward or backwards.

18
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 3: So obviously they were pretty fortunate that get that.

19
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: So how much gooses it give you guys to know

20
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: that if you take care of business and when the

21
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: rest of your games, you get the number one seed

22
00:00:58,480 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: in and by week.

23
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean obviously it's nice, but I mean we

24
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: really do have to take it one day at a

25
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: time because if we don't obviously take care of business

26
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: this week, then none of that matters.

27
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,479
Speaker 3: So for us, it's how can we.

28
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 2: Continue to get better, just even this week at practice,

29
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 2: handle business on Monday and make that everything right now.

30
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 3: So that's where we have to be.

31
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: What did you think of that final play as Donald

32
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: and Somber who team out former Niners to help you

33
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: guys out.

34
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty cool, you know, to be able to

35
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 2: finish the game the way they did and come back,

36
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: and then obviously us knowing Sam and and Sabby, was

37
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: pretty cool for them to finish that. So it was

38
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,279
Speaker 2: cool seeing Sobby take his helmet off and celebrating stuff.

39
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: So we all love him and and Sam, so it

40
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: was cool. But obviously it's good for them, But we

41
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: still have to handle business this week.

42
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 3: Donald, when he.

43
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 4: Was here, your prep is something that really helped him

44
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 4: grow as a player that I felt like you were

45
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 4: really comprehensive in your approach. Where did that come from?

46
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 4: Was that Campbell or was that high school? Where did

47
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 4: you start kind of hitting every single variable in every play?

48
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: I feel like just growing up every stage that I

49
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: got to high school. My high school coach did a

50
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: great job with teaching me just playbook stuff and being detailed,

51
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,399
Speaker 2: and then getting to college coach Campbell and my quarterback coach,

52
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: coach Gordon, helping me with my footwork and everything being

53
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 2: timed up with my feet, and then coming here in

54
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: the Shanahan's offense and learning from obviously the guys that

55
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 2: had to me, Trey, Jimmy, Nate Sudfeld, and then being

56
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 2: coached up by Greasy and Kyle. So I just all

57
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 2: of those things together, I feel like sort of just

58
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 2: have allowed me to understand the position of quarterback and

59
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 2: what that entails, and the mindset, the studying, the prep,

60
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: the footwork, all of that put together. So and then

61
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 2: when Sam came into he helped me too, just with

62
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: his experiences and everything.

63
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 3: So it was a cool year that we had together.

64
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 2: And it was cool hearing him saying, you know, he

65
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 2: took some stuff away from from my prep and the

66
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: things that we did as a quarterback room that year.

67
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 4: Three years ago he went to Indy for the combine.

68
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 3: What do you remember from how you did?

69
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: It's just how it affected you.

70
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I mean, I'm not a guy that's gonna

71
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 2: really pop when it comes to the testing and all

72
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff.

73
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: So uh, to me, that was that.

74
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: But I remember just being in there throwing and stuff

75
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: and being like, dang, this is pretty cool, like as

76
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: a kid growing up watching the combine and stuff Lucas

77
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 2: Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, And I don't.

78
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: Know, I thought it was like just a surreal moment.

79
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 2: But you know, more than anything, I just wanted to

80
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 2: opt with an NFL team and to go from there

81
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 2: so I'd be able to go back there Monday night,

82
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: you know, and actually play a game there this time

83
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: would be really really cool for me. So just a

84
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: little moments like that you gotta appreciate as you go

85
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: in your career.

86
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, But as.

87
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: A fellow quarterback, how do you explain like what he's

88
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: pulling off at his age, given the it's insane, you know,

89
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 2: to be able to basically cold turkey it and come

90
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 2: back what five years later and uh, to complete passes

91
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 2: and go through an offense and compete and have his

92
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: team in position to win games, Like dude, that's insane.

93
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: And especially you know, for how physical the game is

94
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 2: at quarterback, like people think, you know, the quarterback doesn't

95
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 2: get hit Like you're dropping back and you're getting hit

96
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 2: after throws and you gotta scramble, throw the ball away

97
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 2: and take a hit and then get back up and

98
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: drive back to the huddle, say the play, like all

99
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: those little things that you don't really think of. To

100
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 2: be able to do that at that age, with that

101
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 2: amount of time off and come in and compete right away, man,

102
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 2: it's very impressive. So he's a Hall of Famer and

103
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 2: and to be able to go up and compete against them, Uh,

104
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 2: it's gonna be an honor.

105
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 3: So we all respect the heck out of them. We'll see.

106
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: You gotta take it one year at a time. What's

107
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 3: dance out about the Colts defense?

108
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: When the.

109
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: Man, they do a lot and you know, I think

110
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 2: they do a great job of just playing fast and hard.

111
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: The physicality when you watch their film pops out. Uh,

112
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 2: they fly around to the ball and and uh, I

113
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: think just overall they got they got playmakers. Their defensive line,

114
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 2: they all play together, they're really physical. And then the

115
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 2: guys outside of that, man, they're they're flying around and

116
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 2: they make plays on the ball. So this is a

117
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: defense that you know, you can't slip up on, you

118
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 2: can't take a breath on. For one play like they'll

119
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 2: they'll expose you right when you think you got it.

120
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be a four quarter game of being

121
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: disciplined and you know, attacking when we need to attack.

122
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 2: But we respect the heck out of him, and and uh,

123
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: you know, with what their decordinator has done wherever he's been,

124
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: he's a very respectable play caller. So we've got to

125
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 2: be on top of it.

126
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 4: Tennessee, you guys played some tempo and you put what

127
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 4: a little hurry up is that? Your call? Was that

128
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 4: part of the game plan? And do you like, uh,

129
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 4: you know playing hurry up a little tempo?

130
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: Uh?

131
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,799
Speaker 2: No, it was Kyle's call and just you know, switching

132
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 2: it up kind of thing, uh for last game against Tennessee.

133
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 2: And he thought, you know, coming out and just moving

134
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: the ball like that and getting some tempo would be

135
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: good for us.

136
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 3: And obviously I think it was.

137
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: And so I've had, you know, a history of you know,

138
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: high school college of of going fast and picking up

139
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 2: the tempo when you need it, not even in two minutes,

140
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 2: but just in in random instances, and I think it's

141
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 2: just a good switch up, you know, to be able

142
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: to be an offense that can do both huddle and

143
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: go fast. So I liked it and know Kyle did too.

144
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 2: But it just depends on, you know, the game and

145
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: the scheme and the team that we're playing.

146
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: Their delivery, mobility, playing style. Rivers is pretty unconventional. He

147
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: doesn't really look like a lot of other quarterbacks, but

148
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: he's still done. What he's done is that's just sort

149
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: of an example that you know, hey, you know you

150
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: how to run an offense and nowhere to go with

151
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: the ball. They'll make a big deal about the rest

152
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: of the stuff.

153
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the game, you know, is

154
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 2: ninety percent mental, man like with the scheme, knowing where

155
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 2: you got to go with the ball, throwing on time,

156
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: knowing when guys are coming out of their breaks, when

157
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 2: to throw a ball, when not to, like just all

158
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 2: the things. It's making decisions at a high level, and

159
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 2: so I think that's a big part of it. On

160
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: Philip Rivers done that better than just about anybody in

161
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 2: the history of football playing quarterback, and so he's done

162
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: a great job with that.

163
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 3: The way he throws the.

164
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 2: Ball obviously isn't, I guess, like what other guys have

165
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: done in the past. But he's a guy that gets

166
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 2: it there on time. He understands how to play and

167
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 2: rhythm and find ways to win, and he's a competitor.

168
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 2: So I mean, obviously you guys will know that it

169
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 2: takes so much to be a really good quarterback in

170
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 2: the NFL and to be that consistently, and the fact

171
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 2: that he's been able to, you know, do that over

172
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 2: his career while throwing the way he does like it

173
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 2: goes to show you that it.

174
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 3: Doesn't matter how it looks. It matters at the end

175
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 3: of the day.

176
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: You win, you compete, you throw the ball in time,

177
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 2: and and you do that over and over and over again.

178
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 3: Phillip's done that. Thanks guys,
