1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:00,480 Speaker 1: You. 2 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,359 Speaker 2: Obviously the sort of the glaring stature is no touchdowns 3 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:06,520 Speaker 2: at home? Right, So so what how do you do? 4 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 2: How do you fix that on Sunday night? 5 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: I think just yeah, uh being a fishing in the 6 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: red zone, taking advantage of our opportunities, you know. I 7 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: think that's something that uh, you know, you're always trying 8 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: to do well as the situation of football stuff. And 9 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: definitely a point of emsis for us. 10 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 2: Different games where field goals have kept you win it 11 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 2: this this seems like a game where you're gonna you're 12 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 2: gonna need a lot more touchdowns, right. 13 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: Uh, I mean we're always trying to score touchdowns regardless 14 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: if we were playing. We have a lot of respect 15 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: for you know, their team, their offense and their defense, 16 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: and and uh yeah, we're always trying to score touchdowns 17 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: and put up as many points as possible. In your 18 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: career splits home and away, your touchdown and interception numbers 19 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: at home versus away. Uh No, I haven't seen that, 20 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: but look, I mean I think football feels the same 21 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: and and uh, it's about going out and playing regardless 22 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: of where you are. So I'm excited to get out there. 23 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: I think we all are. It should be an awesome 24 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: atmosphere for football. 25 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 2: I to tell you that they're drastically different. 26 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, I feel like it's uh, you know, 27 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: I'm excited to play at home. I'm excited to get 28 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: in front of the fans and and uh looking forward 29 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: to opportunities. 30 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: Why do you think it is that you've had some 31 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 3: tough prime time games over the years, and what do 32 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 3: you think the key is to kind of getting that. 33 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: Monkey up your back? 34 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think we got to win more game. 35 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean I think you look at you know, the past, 36 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: you know over the years, you know we haven't won 37 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: enough period, so to say prime time or not, you know, 38 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: I think we got to win. You know, we know 39 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: we got to win and uh and play well. So 40 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: I'm confident. I'm excited for the opportunity. 41 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 3: I think we all are. 42 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've watched Joe Barbier's film before. What impresses 43 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: you about him as a quarterback just as accuracy and 44 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: the decision making. I think he uh sees it field well, 45 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: you know, goes the right place for the ball and 46 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: he's he's very accurate when he's there. So, uh, you 47 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for him and uh, he's 48 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: in a quarterback. Does running the ball? You running the ball, 49 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: does that get you into a flow of the game 50 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: any differently than when you're not carrying it. I enjoyed 51 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: running the ball. I think, yeah, it can help me, 52 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: help me get into a game when those opportunities present themselves. 53 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: But I think there's a lot of ways to get 54 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: into a rhythm and get into a flow. And whether 55 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: that's running the ball, throwing the ball, you know, I 56 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:43,559 Speaker 1: feel like I can I can do that either way. 57 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: I think they've been consistently, uh, consistently really good, played 58 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: at a high level and protected well against you know, 59 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: a lot of good task rushes. And I think that 60 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: helps just you know, being able to get through my 61 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: reads and and get the ball out on time, And yeah, 62 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: helps helps you know, knowing that you're you're gonna be 63 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 1: protected and and those guys have played pretty well. That 64 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: has changed your mind. You've consistently a bit of a 65 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: crusher with Scrambler. But the play this year from Hawaian 66 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: is that change your approach when it comes surrounding at 67 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: all capacity? I mean, I think I'll still try to 68 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: try to play in rhythm, and you try to play 69 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: with the feel and sense for the pocket and and uh, 70 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: I think that happens kind of instinctually and naturally depending 71 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: on how to play, you know, presents itself. So I 72 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: think anytime you go into a play or go into 73 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: a game expecting something and trying to uh, you know, 74 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: predetermine something, you get in trouble. So I think it's 75 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: just you know, reacting and playing instinctly, you incorperated. 76 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: You have a little bit of Varney offense last week. 77 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 2: What does he bring? 78 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: What? 79 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: What what does he add to this? 80 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: Uh? I think he brings you know, obviously a big, 81 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: big body presence, uh in the middle of the field 82 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: and uh you know even out wide, getting him match 83 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: up on some smaller defenders. Yeah, he's Uh. We have 84 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in him. I know, you know, 85 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: there was something made, you know, made about him not 86 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: having these many opportunities early on, but uh, we you know, 87 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: have a ton of confidence in him. And you saw 88 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: on Sunday, uh what he can do and just his uh, 89 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: his physicality, his his uh size and strengthen the few. 90 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: What does it. 91 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 3: Say about you and this offense that you were able 92 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 3: to have a win a successful game without two of 93 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 3: your top offensive playmakers last week. 94 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, we've said, you know, all along, we're confident in 95 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: our in our whole group. Uh, and all the guys 96 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: we got, we got a deep, deep deep room. You know, 97 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: in all those skill positions. We have a lot of 98 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: guys who can make plays. And you saw that on Sunday, 99 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: guys stepping up and and doing that. So you know, 100 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: we say we have confidence in him. It's not just 101 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: you know, lip service. We really, we really do.

I thought he played a good 117 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: game on Sunday, I think his his size and uh 118 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: strength in the middle of the field is a is 119 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: a big asset for us. You guys haven't won a 120 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: home game yet and also historically since you've been here, 121 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: you've kind of struggled in prime time.
