1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: I was, how was Daniel look this weekend? Kind of

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: looking back? He's done a good job working his way back. Yeah,

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: kept in, done a really good job in the meetings

4
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 1: and um, you know, as we know, he's eager to

5
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: get out there. Um, so you know, we'll see how

6
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: it goes. You know, coach has addressed all the all

7
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: the questions of regarding you know, him and his injury

8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: and all that. How move into you he's healthy enough? Um,

9
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,240
Speaker 1: how important is it to get when he's only started

10
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: ten games? And how important is it to get the

11
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: three more? You know, fans will look at these games

12
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: and say, you know, what can be gained from what

13
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: can be game from it if he is healthy? Well,

14
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: I think for anybody regardless of your age or you know, experience, Um,

15
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: you just get better with experience, you know. Uh, and uh,

16
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: he's a fast learner. Um. Unfortunately we don't have the

17
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 1: results that we'd like to have. You know, we've we've

18
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: spoke about that. Um. And in the quarterback is a

19
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: huge part of that of wins and losses. But you

20
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: learn and there's nothing you know, we've talked to our

21
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: guys and and our quarterbacks. As you know, there's nothing

22
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: we can do to change what our record is, but

23
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: other than learn from it and be better because of it. So, um,

24
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: he's in the process of doing that, and experience helps.

25
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: But um, you know, if he can't go, then you

26
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: know he's gonna absorb every everything you can in every

27
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: every which way and and it will help him be

28
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: better for now and for the for the future. Is

29
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: there a segment or a good thing where you have

30
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: to learn to come back from injury as well? Um?

31
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 1: All yeah, I think so. I think, I know Coach

32
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: talked about that. I think that, Um you know, I

33
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: think everything um that you do, uh, from the minute

34
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: you step foot in the building, uh when you get

35
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: to the NFL, just like when you went from high

36
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: school to college, is a learning experience. UM. How to train,

37
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: um you know, how to meet, how to go through walkthroughs,

38
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: how to prepare on your own, um, how to deal

39
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: with an injury, how to how to uh you know,

40
00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: manage your time while you're getting treatment and still get

41
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: yourself back ready to go mentally as fast as you can.

42
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: So I think all that is is a learning process

43
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: for anybody, especially for a young guy. How does seven uncertainty?

44
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: What who you're starting quarterback, is gonna be just sort

45
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: of affect this week from the logisticals standpoint. Yeah, I

46
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: think that. Um, you know, I think everybody kind of knows, um,

47
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: you know, what the situation is. And I think it's

48
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: important for everybody just to kind of hey, kind of

49
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: keep keep your focus on what each guy's job is. Um.

50
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: And you know, one of the things we talked about

51
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: is being flexible, you know, and you know the quarterbacks

52
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: talk to those guys. Flexibility is the key to longevity,

53
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: you know, just be flexible in this league. Have a plan,

54
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 1: you know what you want to get done, but be

55
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 1: flexible and that's going to help you in whatever you do.

56
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 1: Like when a guy like Slaton first half like that

57
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: was in the second half, right, and you want to

58
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: sell it too, targets, would you others line there and

59
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: it's a couple of three and owns? How much are

60
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: you doing? How much of you guys are doing to

61
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: draw up a flight and get in the ball. Yeah,

62
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: well I think excuse me, I think that, Um. Yeah,

63
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: I mean when a guy is hot like that, you

64
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: want to try to continue to just in general to

65
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 1: get him the ball. But you don't want to force

66
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: the ball. I think the biggest thing was we just

67
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: couldn't stay on the field. You know, we were bad

68
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: on third down and we had we needed to be better.

69
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: Um unfortunately had a chance at the end to get

70
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: him the ball and we didn't come up with with

71
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: the with the play, they made a good play at

72
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: the end. Um. So yeah, you want to, but but

73
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: more importantly, you don't want to. You don't want to

74
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: force it. And then, uh, you know, we don't have

75
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: a lot of plays. It's hard to it's hard to

76
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: get you know, to do those kinds of things gone

77
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: seven games. I mean it's the ring game just not there. No,

78
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: I think that, Um, you know, first of all, it's hard.

79
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: I think you know last year when we got rolling,

80
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: it was you know, you get on a roll and

81
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: you stay on it, and those are um, you know,

82
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: that's our goal to do that every year. Uh more

83
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: importantly to win football games. Um, we know that the

84
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: running game is going to be a big part of that.

85
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: I think that maybe probably four or five weeks ago,

86
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: we kind of struggled just with a few things, just

87
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: with some moving parts and you know, se Kwan was

88
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: just getting back from his injury. I think the last

89
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: few weeks though, I think we've been back where in

90
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: the heading in the direction where we want to go.

91
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: We're not quite there, but there's a lot of positive runs,

92
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: a lot of efficient runs. You see our offensive line

93
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: um coming off the ball, you see him re establishing

94
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Se Kwan's hitting it up in there. Um.

95
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: And we've had a few that have been really close

96
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: really in the last three games from from breakouts. And

97
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: I felt that way the week before. Unfortunately, we you know,

98
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: we had to turn over and they got down a

99
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: couple of scores, had to had to uh kind of

100
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: get get to throw in the football, um, and then

101
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: last week we were kind of the same, you know,

102
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: but there's a lot of would um now then basically

103
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: what what we saw about four or five weeks ago.

104
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: Do you design things in practice to test Daniel ex

105
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: Ancle or has it just come up naturally, yeah, got

106
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: the script or whatever. Yeah. Well, we're real careful as

107
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: coaches to kind of just take a backseat to the

108
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: trainers on what uh he can do, what he can't do,

109
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: and we'll we communicate with them uh on you know,

110
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: how much we want to push him, how much we

111
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: don't um, and then just kind of go from there

112
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: and let them kind of take over. So uh, if

113
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: they say, hey, can give me a little bit more,

114
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: we'll give me a little bit more. If they say, hey, no,

115
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: we need to hold back a little bit, we'll do that.

116
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: So um, and then we just kind of let you know,

117
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: that's that's that's their job. We've got great trainers and

118
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: kind of listen to them.
