1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: A lot of running game. How do you along? For 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: you guys, it's coming along good. 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 2: I think I realized to that is the offense has 4 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 2: been improving and you know, working on our techniques and 5 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:12,719 Speaker 2: it's nice to be in full pazz and get that contact. 6 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: It feels like you guy offensive line is that. 7 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: I can't answer that question, but I mean it's still upset. 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,319 Speaker 2: You know, day in and day it's somebody different. But 9 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 2: you know, pad a few guys that's been out or 10 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 2: miss practiced south next man up, what's the different? I 11 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 2: think you knows has played right tackle in the path, 12 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 2: So I mean I think for him it's more of 13 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: him being more comfortable in essence or going back to what. 14 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: He's used to. Yeah, yeah, it's been good. I would 15 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: say it's a new tool. 16 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,319 Speaker 2: I think, like what I said last time, like it's 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: definitely a good thing to have tools in the bag 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 2: and help you win in the middle of the battle 19 00:00:54,280 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: and as you progress through the battle. You know, we 20 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: just got to get on her on our stuff. You know, Uh, 21 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 2: too many bad plays, too many mental errors, so you 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: know you just got to fix that. 23 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 24 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: I mean last year really don't matter. You know, it's 25 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 2: day in and day out, like Julies two days. I mean, 26 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: the office has came out and we've been letting our 27 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 2: pasts do to talking. So you know they're good, but hey, 28 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 2: they still got to go against us every day. M Yeah, 29 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: do martial arts. No, I haven't dine martial arts yet. 30 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: I've done some boxing, so like I'm familiar with like 31 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: strike systems and like you know how you want to 32 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: lay your hands and all that. So I think it's 33 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 2: really nice and it really applies. It applies in the 34 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 2: middle of the rest, you know, blocking a guy, you know, 35 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 2: getting your hands on the god. 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: First progress when you go about here those days. 37 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I see everybody again, everybody progressing. The younger guys 38 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: are coming along, the older guys. You know, we're adjusting 39 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: and using the new technique. So we're applying them in 40 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: the battle and seeing how that work. 41 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: You know. That's what it's for. We have these days 42 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: to practice. What's that like? 43 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 2: Oh it feels nice, you know you see it, and uh, 44 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 2: you know, obviously you get the coaching points you do 45 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 2: the practicing, but like when you use the technique and 46 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: it works, it's like, all right, well I can be 47 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: more comfortable using it and adjust it and added to 48 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 2: my games. Yeah, actually engage confidence. 49 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, it does. 50 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: Like I said, those tours are really important. I think 51 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: they help us in the fight and even using it 52 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: against our our defense, which is a good, good defense, 53 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 2: so you know, it gives us more confidence going into 54 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 2: you know, our games during the season. 55 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: Now, I think you're the one of the goats on 56 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: the side offensive line. How much more of a leadership 57 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: role are you taking now that you're here on your 58 00:02:59,480 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: second game. 59 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm doing the same thing I've been doing. You know, 60 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: I'm just playing ball and bringing the guys along with me. 61 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: So that's all I do, like. 62 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 1: Tom along with Do you feel that? Do you feel 63 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: like you guys? 64 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 2: I think each day we're we're improving on things, and 65 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 2: you know, we have a lot of things to improve 66 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: and fix, so you know, each day we're focusing on 67 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: different things individually and as a team. So I think 68 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: it's helping us go along. It's dope. I like him, 69 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 2: you know, as a player or a coach that was 70 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 2: a player, you know, especially with coach Mayo. You know, 71 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: he's obviously defensive, so it's it's nice getting that offensive 72 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: side and uh, having a coach that relates last year 73 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: because bodies really to sort of cover that. 74 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, last year, last year. You know, last year is 75 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: last year. 76 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: But you know, at the end of the day, we 77 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: were all football players and we got to roll what 78 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: we got. 79 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: That's very important. It's very important. 80 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: You gotta keep the middle of the pocket straight, so 81 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: the quarterback and step up and deliver the ball. M Yeah. Yeah, 82 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: Nick is going a long way. Obviously he's played center before, 83 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 2: so I think when he's in there, you know, he's 84 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 2: bringing a long communication for making sure we're understanding each 85 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: other and playing off of each other. You know, Like 86 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 2: you said, I've played with Dave, so some stuff I 87 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: don't really need to communicate. So we're making sure we 88 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: talk and talk to the looks and watch practice together. Yeah. 89 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: Obviously Dave is a long, long term vetteran. You know, 90 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: he's been the guy. He's really the center or the 91 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 2: rock in the middle, so you know, he communicates everything 92 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: he talks to us, and uh, he gets everything going 93 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 2: in the right direction. But this is very important, you know, 94 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: because I mean it's football. You know, things happen, so 95 00:04:52,760 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 2: we've got to pre prepray it. Yeah, uh huh. Today 96 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 2: it did mean more reps. So you know, we were 97 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: sweating a lot of extra but I'm not complaining. Oh 98 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 2: those are good, those are good. We got more reps, 99 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: like you know, obviously getting that one on one and 100 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: like I said, trying the stuff that coach Peters is 101 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: teaching us. You know, we get to try strikes and 102 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 2: you know it can be it can be seen as 103 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: a winner loss, but you know it's for us to 104 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 2: work our technique and improve on it. I mean absolutely, 105 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: you know you want to win, but it's like you know, 106 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: you're trying stuff to work on. You know, your opponents 107 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: in in in in practice, so you do it to 108 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: win or you know, if you lose, you know what 109 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: to improve on'ssess. But last couple of days, what does 110 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 2: that means? A guy can figure, Yeah, it means a lot. 111 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: You know, we can't really do nothing about it. You know, 112 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: we got to continue to practice and do what we do. 113 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 2: Are our positions. 114 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: You know when its where would you the past two 115 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: days and where would you say improved group? 116 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: I would say over the last two that as we 117 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: we've kind of ran a little bit of everything. I 118 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 2: think yesterday we uh we started doing gaps and gaps 119 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: games and you know, blocks and power and all that. 120 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: So I think it's been helping us with the play 121 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: action and the run action and just really give them 122 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: the defense different looks. 123 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: Are there any differences next to you as the. 124 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 2: First can you repeat again?
