Speaker 1: play my absolute very best, but um, you know, yeah,

19
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,120

25
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: Just wondering about what it was like on the sideline

26
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: and after the after that Houston game, when you guys

27
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: had been you know, dealing with them all day and

28
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: then you you finally realized there was a victory in hand.

29
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: Just all the hard work you went through that week

30
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: was Yeah, I mean that is you know, I think

31
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: one of the sweetest feelings ever is winning an NFL

32
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: football game. It's a culmination with a lot of hard

33
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: work and sacrifice by a lot of guys that you

34
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: care about. And to you know, show that on Sunday

35
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: and have a quantifiable, you know, way to celebrate with

36
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: the victory um is very special to me. And you

37
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: know we're you know, continuing to do it this week

38
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: and you know Sunday we want to emulate that and

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: you know, build off and get another one doesn't stop

40
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: in this league. So this morning, Bill was talking about

41
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: your experience at center and James's experience at Center and

42
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: how much that help help guys when they switch over

43
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: to God. What are some of the things that that

44
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: carry over from Senator God that helped you that that

45
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: Bill might have been talking about, Well, I got to

46
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: learn center here. I played Garden College and then you know,

47
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: moved to center. Um, but just to to know the

48
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: fronts and calls and and with communication. We had three

49
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: centers out there. Um, you know a day would get

50
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: mad if I in practice how to start go up

51
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: and make the call myself. But um, he didn't really

52
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: like that too much. So but you know, that's just

53
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's great communication and identification and everyone. Uh,

54
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: you know, we were all trained here as centers and

55
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: it helps us see the game through one set of eyes.

56
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: And you know that's that's advantageous, and especially when you're

57
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: playing against the team like the Texans or the Cowboys

58
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: here where there's a you know a good deal of

59
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: moving parts. Thank that. Zach Gus, Hey Zad, how's it going,

60
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: Hey Zach, how you doing doing well? Uh? Just curious.

61
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: You guys have a decent number of young tackles in

62
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: their first second, third year. What's it been like working

63
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: working with those guys over the last couple months and

64
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: a lot of them are all three of them have

65
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: had to play significant snaps in the last couple of weeks. Yeah,

66
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: it's been. It's been a great pleasure. I'm a lot

67
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: of young guys coming up and working hard, and um,

68
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: you know, it's a testament disorganization. They bring in such

69
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: good people and good players, and you know they've been

70
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: everyone's been trying their best to improve here and in

71
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: September and October and you know now as we're getting

72
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: into you know, the middle of the season, Um, you know,

73
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: hopefully we hit our stride as a as a unit,

74
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: as an offense and as a team, and everyone's just

75
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: working their hardest to uh to get there. Next question,

76
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: Mark Daniels said, you're doing well? Mark, Yeah, how are

77
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: you doing well? It's a nice day to day. You know,

78
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: take days like this in October, so I can't complain

79
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: too much, you know. So obviously there's been some adversity,

80
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: you know with the offensive line this year for variety

81
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: of reasons. You guys can you know, you know, probably

82
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: some as you guys want back, but it seems like

83
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: in Houston, you know, things things went right. How do

84
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: you feel like the adversity through maybe the first four

85
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: weeks have sort of brought you closer together, if you know,

86
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: if any I think a lot of guys are playing

87
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: a lot of different roles and stepping up and and

88
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: having success. Stepping up a different role is helping to

89
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: build some confidence. And you know, we have a we

90
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: have a pretty giant task in front of us here

91
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: on Sunday that a lot of guys are gonna have

92
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: to step up again. And I think we're all up

93
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: to that task. But it's gonna come down to our performance.

94
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: And you know, we we've practiced this week to make

95
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: it our best. So um, moving forward, we're just gonna

96
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: keep grinding. And as we get guys back, you know,

97
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: roles will change and shift and uh, you know, we're

98
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: just it's an exciting group. You know, we like each
