1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,680
Speaker 1: And then you has got a quick turn around this

2
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: week with Seattle Thursday. Yeah, I mean, uh obviously watch

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: the film. Gotta get better. You need to get better,

4
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: you know, myself offensively and then just playing as a team.

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: And so we gotta do it quick. We've got Thursday

6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: night game, great team, the Seahawks on the road, so

7
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: big challenge ahead. If we sit and dwell, then uh,

8
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: I think, you know, obviously things won't go our way.

9
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,959
Speaker 1: Uh So we have to turn the turn the page

10
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: quick and like I said, learn from it, but go

11
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: so as a whole man, I think, I mean, we

12
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: just need to play better, and that starts with myself.

13
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 1: Get down in the red zone, we got to execute

14
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: and score touchdowns. That there's multiple times where we could

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: have pulled away significantly in the in the first half.

16
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: And then again that starts with myself. And so there's that,

17
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: and then you know second half, when defense is getting stops,

18
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 1: we can't just turn the ball right back over. I mean,

19
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: that's pretty plain his day. And so we just gotta

20
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,279
Speaker 1: be better in that area. And and just you know,

21
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: back up the defense. When the defense is doing their thing,

22
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: we have to be able to go down the field

23
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: and execute and put points up on the board, not

24
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: give the other team life. So we need to play better.

25
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: Their defensive plan was it similar to what you guys

26
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: have seen in the last few weeks. I would say,

27
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: you know, there was. They were doing some stuff that

28
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: was a little different, but they also did things that

29
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,119
Speaker 1: we expected. So you know, but regardless, like we're gonna

30
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: run our offense and go about how we play football,

31
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 1: and so we just need to play better. So the

32
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: red zone, let's come up a few times this year.

33
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: We can put your finger on why that's been a

34
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: struggle to finish drives down there. I mean, everything's you know,

35
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: pretty tight. It's it's close, and we just got to

36
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: be aggressive. And obviously it starts with me. I'm the

37
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: guy with the ball, so you know, being aggressive to

38
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: certain guys and matchups and give them guys chances, and

39
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: so I just got to be hard on myself with that.

40
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: Obviously you want to be smart and protect the ball.

41
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: But you know, when we got a matchup in a

42
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: a in a good look, we've gotta rip it. And

43
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: so you know, I just gotta be better and more

44
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: aggressive down there, and then just collectively as a as

45
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: a unit, offensive unit. Once we get down there, like

46
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: all of us, our mindset, man has to be we

47
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: gotta punch this in. Obviously, we know we can settle

48
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: for a field goal, but we got to hold ourselves

49
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: at a higher standard and cross the goal line.

50
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 2: So it was there. What was there today for Brandon

51
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 2: that wasn't there maybe in the past or the first

52
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 2: four games.

53
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: I mean, he was just doing his thing, you know,

54
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: he wasn't trying to do anything too out of the ordinary.

55
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: We just had some good plays and matchups styled up

56
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,399
Speaker 1: for him, and I thought he did a great job

57
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: man of getting in and out of cuts and obviously

58
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: catching the ball, making plays. You know. It just it

59
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: went his way today. So he's been doing that, I

60
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: think all all season long. It's just it's tough when

61
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: the ball doesn't go your way and and defenses do

62
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: some things differently. But he had some really good matchups

63
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: today and we took advantage of it.

64
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: Such a big part of what you guys would do

65
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 2: in the red zone the past couple of years.

66
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: How much are your early struggles in the area of

67
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: the field product of trying to find a new identity

68
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: without him? Yeah, I mean, obviously you can do so

69
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: much with Christian out of the backfield, line him up

70
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: as a receiver and stuff like that, and defenses have

71
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: to account and have a plan for that. So I

72
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: mean it is a little different. And but regardless, man,

73
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: I think we have, you know, the the players and

74
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: the talent to still make it, make it happen. And

75
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: we got some obviously, got George with his size, dbo

76
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 1: Ba with their hands JJ. So we just got to

77
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: put it together and get some rhythm within it down there, having.

78
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 2: Already good game up until the pumbl obviously, So what's

79
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 2: his mindset now brought Did you get a chance to talk.

80
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: To him bounce back? Yeah, I mean we all got

81
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: his back, man, And obviously he's been running, you know,

82
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: really really hard. He's been doing such a great job.

83
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: And so that's how football goes. Man. You it could

84
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: take one play and and then it makes makes you

85
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: feel like, dang it, you know, uh, I could have

86
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: done this in the game or that in the game.

87
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: But man, he played really hard. He ran hard. Uh

88
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: gave us really great field position throughout the game and

89
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: had some really key runs. And so I mean, just

90
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: like a couple of weeks ago with you know, Ronnie

91
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: Bel It's like, man, we all it takes eleven man

92
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: and it takes all of us, and so we all

93
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: got his back and we're gonna pick up quick and

94
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: we gotta be ready for Seattle.

95
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 2: Hasn't had many losses like this in recent years, especially

96
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 2: since you've been the quarterback. With the emotion about that,

97
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 2: I mean as their frustration. You can't even think that

98
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 2: because you've got this game coming up. Just what's the

99
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: mood in that locker room right now?

100
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's the standard here, man, is is

101
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: excellence and what we've proven in the last couple of

102
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: years of the standard of what we can play at,

103
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: like that's you know, what we're trying to get to.

104
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: But man, every every year is different with just the team,

105
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: the chemistry and getting guys together. You got new keys,

106
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: some guys leave, and so I think all all throughout

107
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: this it's early in the season and we're still trying

108
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: to find our true identity as a team, and we're

109
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: getting there, and it's it's a couple of plays away

110
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: and a couple drives away from uh, you know, gelling

111
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: and gluing together. So but I'm confident that we'll find it.

112
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: We just got to get into a rhythm and play

113
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: complimentary team football. Got a Thursday night game coming up,

114
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: so I'll have another chance at it.

115
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 2: You mentioned that the turnovers. I think both your interceptions

116
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 2: were either deflected or I don't know if the last

117
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 2: one was defective. It certainly was hitting you. What can

118
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 2: you do better than that? I mean those look like

119
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 2: tough to avoid.

120
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: I mean obviously I just got to know if I

121
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: do have a pressure and what my answer can be

122
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: within that. I was locked on ba and trying to

123
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: hit him at the end, so I think I can

124
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 1: be better in that area. And then the first one

125
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: try to get the ball to George Quicker instead of

126
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: double patent it, and so there's there's little things like that. Man,

127
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: it's it's a game of interest for a reason. There's

128
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: not a lot of margin for air, and I have

129
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: to watch the film and learn from it. Nice
