49
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: I have people watched the preseason game, you know, there's

50
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: a lot of people like come away from that saying, oh,

51
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: this is this offensive line is not gonna be good.

52
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: This is gonna be a bad offensive line. What what

53
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: do you say to that? And what's what's your reaction

54
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: when you get that people's that is what they're saying.

55
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie. That's fine. And uh,

56
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: you know, like I said, we are a line of

57
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: constant improving. That's our like thing. You know, we constantly

58
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: want to get better. You know, we need to get

59
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: better quick and we but it's never gonna change. You know,

60
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: We're always gonna want to get better. Even if they

61
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: would have said we were the best old line in

62
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: the NFL, we would have gave you the same response,

63
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: we need to get better. Do you guys pay attention

64
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: to that to use it as motivation? Do you take

65
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: the opposite approach? And you just say whatever they want

66
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: to say. That I mean, it goes back to my

67
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: same intres since we're in that constant state of wanting

68
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: to get better, you know, it doesn't really make a

69
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: difference what they're saying. M m hm
