00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 2: It's good to see guys out there practicing. Different guys

18
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: are in different stages, you know, as the week goes

19
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 2: on in terms of all the different guys, we'll see

20
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: where they're at for Sunday. But it is good seeing

21
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: guys get back out.

22
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 5: Ny from Marlin Turns, I know you're probably not going to.

23
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 3: Get fit, get specific.

24
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 5: But what have you seen in terms of the Kenny

25
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 5: products there?

26
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 2: Well, I mean he's been working super hard. It's one

27
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: of those things where it's really just a matter of

28
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: the healing process in there taking place in the bone

29
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 2: or whatever. And so it looks good, we'll see what happens.

30
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 2: It's just got to see how response to the work low.

31
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: That's the main thing right now.

32
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 6: He coach, you had a few players this week, in

33
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 6: particular Eric Thomains and having a veteran like him and

34
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 6: after just Oliver's departure, is his main assignment to be

35
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 6: like one of those blocking tight ends.

36
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 2: Well, there's no doubt Eric's known for that. You know,

37
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: it's kind of his things. He can run routes, catch

38
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: the ball.

39
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 4: Certainly.

40
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 2: He said, he's a veteran player, highly decorated tight end

41
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 2: in this league who's kind of known as a really

42
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 2: good blocking tight end. So he was available, he was

43
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: excited to come back, and you know, we can put

44
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 2: him into that mix and see where we go.

45
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 5: On Kenny pictons since Paser, I mean that he's expected

46
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 5: to play on Sunday. He was what you've seen for

47
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 5: the mont you know what you expect the problem on Sunday.

48
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: Right, Well, we've got a lot of tape on on

49
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: kennybviously played them seeing him on tape all the time.

50
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 2: Obviously excellent quarterback. You know, in the system he's they

51
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 2: fitted the system to him. It seems like like always. Yeah,

52
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 2: I mean we're looking forward to the challenge, you know,

53
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 2: and that's what it's going to be, and we expect

54
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 2: him to be out there. He says he's going to

55
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 2: be out there. We're expecting to be out there. You know,

56
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 2: it is what it is. You know, you find out

57
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 2: we had the same situation last week and it didn't

58
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 2: go that way.

59
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 4: So you know, we'll just see where we're at.

60
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 2: But uh, you know, obviously Mitch Trubisky's a heck of

61
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 2: a player too, and we'll be preparing for the Pittsburgh

62
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 2: Steeler offense.

63
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 7: John had a usual stretch of the schedule three straight

64
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 7: road games for a division game, then international game. Do

65
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 7: you have to shift things like players, sleep, cycle, nutrition,

66
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 7: vocals on any differently or do you just stay day

67
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 7: to day.

68
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 2: We have a plan, but I think we can talk

69
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: about that next week. It'll be better, Yeah.

70
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 5: John, A lot of great linebackers have similar traits.

71
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 8: But when it comes from Roquan, especially the way you

72
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 8: kind of just splashed in your defense last year, right,

73
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 8: is there's something unique that makes him kind of stay

74
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 8: out amongst the even amongst the crowd of the great

75
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 8: linebackers that you can cook.

76
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 4: It's a great question, I'd say, yeah.

77
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think you're you could possibly stand

78
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: out in this different this craft as a football player

79
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: unless there's things about you that are very unique, you know,

80
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: and sometimes it's the simplest things and just being great

81
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 2: at those things that is unique, because the simplest thing,

82
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: sometimes the hardest thing, is to be consistently great at

83
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: and that's one of the things he does. I Mean,

84
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: he's relentlessly chasing every detail of his craft, and he

85
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 2: does it with an enthusiasm and a demeanor and a

86
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,519
Speaker 2: confidence that you pretty much, uh, you respect when you

87
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 2: see it, that's for sure.

88
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 5: Is there any aspect that when he arrived change you

89
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 5: felt like it was affecting the culture of either the

90
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 5: defense or even just the linebacker room.

91
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly adding to it. I mean, you know, a

92
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: great leader brings brings it to the culture. I think

93
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 2: the culture is a lot of things and one of

94
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 2: the things it's uh, it becomes kind of a mix

95
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: for all the all the parts, you know, all all

96
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 2: the pieces in there, and sometimes sometimes you know, there

97
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 2: can be a cat list. And I think he was

98
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: a little bit of a catalyst for us that way

99
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: and just the way he operates, and and that's good.

100
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 4: That's what leadership is.

101
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 5: If he jumping right away or Steve Smith talking about it,

102
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 5: I got to wait a year.

103
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 4: But you know, Steve Smith didn't read wait a year.

104
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 2: He might have said that. I recall him jumping right

105
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 2: in and yeah, and Roe was the same way. He

106
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: jumped right in, and he just was Row, just like

107
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 2: Steve was Steve. And and one of the great quotes

108
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 2: that Steve Smith has is uh he says uh, he

109
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: says I was born or raven.

110
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 4: I just didn't know it until I got here. You know,

111
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 4: it's pretty good.

112
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 9: We appreciate that John.

113
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 10: Uh.

114
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 11: He saw obviously Marcus Williams get full participation in the

115
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 11: last week, but it's a different kind of situation for him.

116
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 11: Are you looking for something specific this week to kind

117
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 11: of get him the green mind?

118
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 4: Just looking for him to be ready.

119
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 2: You know, I think it's a lot of factors that

120
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: are involved with that, and uh, and we'll see as

121
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: we get along in the week how he looks, how

122
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: he feels, and whether or not he's ready and he

123
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 2: feels he can perform and he's gonna be safe.

124
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 5: Do you feel like, you know the orders give you

125
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 5: guys are over the cost or is he sort of

126
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 5: didn't go and forward?

127
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: He certainly has. Uh, he's played very well. I mean

128
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: obviously that catch is the run. Uh, he's he's he's

129
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 2: a he's he's something. You know, I really appreciate it

130
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 2: with what we thought he was gonna be when he

131
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 2: came in, he's been. He's been all that and more.

132
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: And now we have to figure out the roster gymnastics

133
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 2: of all that right now. Also that combines with the

134
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,559
Speaker 2: injuries and things like that. So uh, Eric be working

135
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 2: on that and trying to do the math on that.

136
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 11: I think you guys have been one of the best

137
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 11: stepends of the journey. Yeah, not giving up those intermediates.

138
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 11: I know say that you guys have been on that

139
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 11: at those best teams, not giving up and pass like

140
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 11: intermediate and he throws.

141
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 12: I know.

142
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 11: The emphasis with Mike has been like a Noxio soccer

143
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 11: communication in the back end. Have you seen that kind

144
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 11: of playoffs? I'm obviously film is one thing.

145
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 12: Which to kind of be on it.

146
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 11: The part just field, I'm on our game dangers hearing

147
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 11: guys talking.

148
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean, that's that's something that is a staple.

149
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a staple, uh, principle in football and

150
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: in life. You know, maybe not obnoxious in life, but

151
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 2: certainly of noxes on a football field when you've got

152
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 2: seventy five thousand fans screaming their lungs out to try

153
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: to impede your communication. And that's what we've got to

154
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: be able to do. And I think the guys have

155
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 2: done a really good job of it, but we can

156
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: get a lot better. It's week four, so you know,

157
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: week five is another chapter and you've got to be

158
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: better than you were the week before, for sure.

159
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 4: So that's what we keep chasing.

160
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 3: Odell and.

161
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 5: Were shot back being back out there.

162
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 13: How does that change the dynamic of things for you guys?

163
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 10: Uh?

164
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 2: Well, I mean it's two more really good players, you know,

165
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 2: and in terms of what you can do, what they're

166
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 2: capable of doing, the fact that you've got some more

167
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: guys out there with who are fast and talented than

168
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 2: you had previously.

169
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 4: I think it kind of speaks for itself.

170
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 2: Specifically, you find out when you get there, you know

171
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 2: that's that's kind of how it goes. You have to

172
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 2: play the games on Sunday to really know the answer

173
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: to a question like that.

174
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 4: A great thanks.

175
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: That was that coach John Harbaugh. We also talked with

176
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: inside linebacker Patrick Quayens having a terrific season this year.

177
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: He talked about his mindset going into this game in Pittsburgh.

178
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 5: Someone that has said.

179
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 3: Before that you relished playing an enemy territory. There's something

180
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 3: a little after this sets you still try to ring. Uh.

181
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:16,239
Speaker 12: Yeah, uh.

182
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 10: Anytime you know, you join this organization and they talk

183
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 10: about this game, it's the game that defines you and

184
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 10: makes you a raven. And uh when I was on

185
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 10: my SI on their sideline my rookie year, Mike Tomlin

186
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 10: was looking at me, s yelling at me, You're not

187
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 10: a raven, You're not a raven y R. You're not

188
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 10: supposed to be there, You're not You're not one of them.

189
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 10: So every time I play them in something personal that

190
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 10: with you, Yeah, definitely did, definitely did. I don't care

191
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 10: if he was joking. I don't care if he was serious.

192
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 10: At the end of the day, I don't on your

193
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 10: sideline you're telling me I'm not a raven. It's kind

194
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 10: of disrespectful.

195
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 8: So do you think it's not that not everything playing

196
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 8: you go in any.

197
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, I just cause at that point it's like, I like,

198
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 10: I never even told you anything, like you just coming

199
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 10: at me. So I mean, at from that point on,

200
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 10: it was just it is what it is.

201
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 12: You know.

202
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 14: That's kind of like, Uh, you know, if you played them,

203
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 14: you were talking about how you know you feel you

204
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 14: weren't a.

205
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: Ray of it until you get the Steelers rightly did so?

206
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 12: Uh are you ready to just even the numbers?

207
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 4: Yeah?

208
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 10: Uh your matchups against them definitely. Uh, sitting at one

209
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 10: and five versus them, Uh, it's not a good record

210
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 10: at all, and uh we're looking to change that.

211
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 12: Uh.

212
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 10: So you know that's been a talking trying of you know,

213
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 10: catch back up on the on that record and obviously

214
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 10: all those games were decided by very few points, and

215
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 10: uh we know where we went wrong in those games,

216
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 10: and you know that's what we're leaning on now, is

217
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 10: just correcting our m power pass mistakes.

218
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 15: Does does Rooklund go into a different headspace on game

219
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 15: days then the other guys that you've.

220
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,880

Speaker 12: tell a roquind Rock crusts like that every day.

222
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 10: Uh he really doesn't change, but uh, game day definitely

223
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 10: get a little bit more intensity. I you s you

224
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 10: gonna get the same talk that you get every day,

225
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,000

226
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 12: Yeah, salatary number.

227
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,480

231
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,000

Speaker 12: On in this season, still trying to improve.

241
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 10: Uh, I feel like my game there's another level to

242
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 10: a lot I feel like we're just getting started, and

243

246
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 10: into the future. Uh, even though there's goals that I

247
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 10: wanna reach, I'm just really just focused on being one

248
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:48,679
Speaker 10: percent better each day.

249
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 3: I Thrick you mentioned, you.

250
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 13: Know, rose influence on here and so far since you

251
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 13: got here, A curious could you see your Davy in it?

252
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 3: And Uh, probably way in the way I do. I

253
00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: know he's got here.

254
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 7: What do you see.

255
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 12: From those guys that stands down to you? Uh? What

256
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 12: uh clowney?

257
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 10: You really see like the intensity that he plays with

258
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 10: every play, the aggression that he plays with, how physical

259
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 10: he is, uh, how fast he closes in on the

260
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 10: attack point and with k what kV is, Just how

261
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 10: smart he is, Uh coming in the first day knowing

262
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 10: is that exactly what to do on all his jobs,

263
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 10: talking about certain players that he's about to see. Uh,

264
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 10: just you know how well he communicated the first time

265
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 10: he was out there. So Uh, it's two different things

266
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 10: that you get from both of them, but you still

267
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 10: get a concept of things that they do well, and uh,

268
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 10: just seeing those two guys, two guys that you look

269
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 10: up I looked up to, playing playing the sport, just

270
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 10: watching them do what they do and be great and just.

271
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 12: Trying to really fall in they path.

272
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 17: Patrick Hill with Marylin going down early and Marcus doing

273
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 17: down early. But what do you think the perception was

274
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 17: of this secondary and what do you think Pats show

275
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 17: in the past three or fourth weeks?

276
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 12: Now we knew our guys catball.

277
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 10: Uh, I think when you look at the outside world,

278
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 10: the outside world look at obviously it's Marlin and Marcus,

279
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 10: you know, going down, But uh, we got faith in

280
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 10: the guys that we got and they wouldn't be here

281
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 10: if we knew they couldn't play. So any time we

282
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 10: stepped on the field with our eleven, we know we

283
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 10: got faking in each other.

284
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 3: And you guy think, uh, you know, I talked to

285
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: you and there was all these injuries happening, and you

286
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 3: had really how's it down? Kind of the opposite. How's

287
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 3: it feel when you know you're getting back Marlin Odell Baiting,

288
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 3: How how's it do when you get these.

289
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:18,839
Speaker 12: Guys coming back?

290
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 10: It's definitely confidence boost But at the same time, you know, uh,

291
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 10: we going out there with the same game plan, doing

292
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 10: the same thing we've been doing, and just trying to

293
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 10: up at the notch, and uh, you know, getting those

294
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 10: guys back is a huge plus. But like I said,

295
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 10: the guys that we had in there, I felt like

296
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 10: we did good with them, and I feel like they

297
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 10: you know, they stepped up to the plate and there

298
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 10: was there's not gonna be no drop off at all.

299
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 12: Did better.

300
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 17: If there's a a lot of talk the fourth year

301
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 17: of guys just kind of how competitive this a snooda

302
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 17: for quarterbacks. Joe Burrow maar, you know they could sending

303
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 17: wants going back. Ex What do you kind of make

304
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 17: of things right now? It's seems like the Mars at

305
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 17: the top of the rest is kind of in transition almost.

306
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 10: Uh, it's just a tough division as a whole. I

307
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 10: think you look at every position, every position got great players,

308
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 10: and I think that's just what makes each ain't so tough. Uh,

309
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 10: minus the rivalry is just each position is loaded with talent.

310
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 10: And when you look at each player that's in the division,

311
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 10: you look at the quarterbacks and the talent that's around

312
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 10: those quarterbacks that make them better. So think, uh, all

313
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 10: the t quarterbacks in our division are great quarterbacks. They're

314
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 10: obviously on the teams for a reason, starting on those

315
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 10: teams for a reason, and they got the guys around

316
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 10: 'em that we gotta go play against every day. And

317
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 10: I honestly think it's the toughest division in football. I

318
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 10: honestly if you aks me, but yeah, that's how I feel.

319
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 3: Patrick d It's it's one game of the time.

320
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 16: But do you feel like the the locker room kind

321
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 16: of is the natitude of if you beat at the port,

322
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 16: you you sweep all your AFC uprop games.

323
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 12: Uh.

324
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 10: I mean, honestly, we just trying to be one to notice.

325
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 10: We were not looking too much in the future. Like

326
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 10: I said, we were focused on get being one percent better.

327
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 10: L Like I said, it's tough. It's tough to go

328
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 10: in there. I'm you look at my record. That's why

329
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 10: I'm focused on this week. Just getting better as a player,

330
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 10: getting better on the defense, looking back at the past

331
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 10: things that we did wrong, and just getting better from

332
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 10: those things so that way we could go in there

333
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 10: and get this one and then you know, start talking

334
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 10: about the future.

335
00:12:58,400 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 12: At that point.

336
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,719
Speaker 15: It is a calitary that's Najie Harris runs with does

337
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 15: that kind of add to the rivalry and the physicality

338
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 15: of this game overall?

339
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 10: I think anytime you playing a great player like him, uh,

340
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 10: you want to try to get out there him. And

341
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 10: obviously when he goes, their team goals man and when

342
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 10: you show him down, their team shuts down. So the

343
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 10: big focus is definitely stopping twenty two.

344
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: That was linebacker Patrick Queen. We also talked with tight

345
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: end Mark Andrews Is coming off a two touchdown game

346
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: last week in Cleveland.

353
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 14: Be able to have all those guys back and be

354
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 14: full throttle and you know, watch these guys make plays.

355
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 14: You know, we talked about Lamar and the type of

356
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 14: player that he is, and you're surrounded with you know,

357
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 14: the other guys outside like that that's special.

358
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 5: Chal have have.

359
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,719
Speaker 14: H those guys are you know, ballplayers are dogs. They

360
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 14: know how to go up and get it, make big,

361
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 14: big time plays when it matters and when you have

362
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 14: you know, guys like that in a game like this,

363
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 14: you're able to rely on.

364
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 6: That divisional game, This one has a little more spots

365
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 6: to it being the big or Steelers. How you see

366
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 6: the group keeping them momentum against the Steelers this time.

367
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 14: I just think elite focus, you know, being able to

368
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 14: you know, we talk about being lasered in week by

369
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 14: week and you know, obviously the the Ravens Steelers game

370
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 14: is uh, you know, one of the best rivalries in

371
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 14: the world. And you know, if you're not ready for

372
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 14: a game like this, you know, what are you doing?

373
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 14: But for us being able to focus out here on practice,

374
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 14: knowing what to do, visualize, visualize the moment and and

375
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 14: make the plays when they come. Because it's a week

376
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 14: by week basis, we just got to keep on stacking,

377
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 14: keep on going, and if we do that will be

378
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 14: the team we want to be.

379
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 5: Obviously, defense has changed every year.

380
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 3: They've given you guys some trouble in the past.

381
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 5: Characteristics on the Steeler.

382
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 14: Defense what makes them and year out, I mean you

383
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 14: talk about, you know, the type of team that they are,

384
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 14: that the defensive front and obviously physical, tough, you know,

385
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 14: all those things you expect from a from a Pittsburgh defense,

386
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 14: you know, and at the end of the day, when

387
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 14: you when you have two teams like this and you

388
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 14: have that rivalry, it's it's something you always got to

389
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 14: bring your launch man, because it's a tough game. You know,

390
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 14: no matter if if the team's doing real well one

391
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 14: year or not, it's gonna be a good game.

392
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 5: A lot of passes from.

393
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: Uh from over the years. The one he threw in

394
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: then on Sundays was that one of the best rows.

395
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 14: And it was incredible.

396
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 12: Man.

397
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 14: I I felt like it was slow mo. You know,

398
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 14: wasn't when it was in the air, you know, just

399
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 14: the placement of it, the height of it, the spiral

400
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 14: it was. It was an incredible ball. And you know,

401
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 14: but he's making you know, throws like that over and

402
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 14: over and over and over.

403
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 12: You know.

404
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 14: It's it's just so nice that people are seeing it

405
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 14: and you know, for us just being there for him

406
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 14: and and make them plays when they matters.

407
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 5: Focused, being locked in you've appeared that first training.

408
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 3: Is this just what you in that competitive mindset and

409
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 3: just having such.

410
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 14: A Yeah, you know, I think it's it's about getting better,

411
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 14: you know, as a team.

412
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 12: You.

413
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 14: You want to be able to progress and peak at

414
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 14: the right moments. But this league is so tough because

415
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 14: there's so many good players, so many good teams, and

416
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 14: you take just one little step off, you know, that's

417
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 14: a chance for someone to take your spot, or someone

418
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 14: to beat you, or no matter what it is. So

419
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 14: you know, taking onus on yourself to to be a

420
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 14: pro and you know, take it week by week and focus.

421
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 14: The Leaf focuses everything in this.

422
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 15: League on the other side of the ball.

423
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 3: And what stands out to you about him.

424
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 14: He's such a special player. You know, you don't see

425
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 14: guys like that. You know many times he's just the

426
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 14: way he sees the game. He's very smart. He studies

427
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 14: a lot of film and he looks at information. He

428
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 14: knows exactly what's coming. And you know, to talk about

429
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 14: like a Louke Keikley type of deal. Guys that are

430
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 14: super vocal, able to lead. And he's got that fire

431
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 14: that I haven't seen for many, very many people. Man,

432
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 14: he's got that lead focus. He's able to do it

433
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 14: at such a high level. He's been a blessing for

434
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 14: this team, for this defense and a catalyst for what

435
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 14: we can be.

436
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 3: What's the difference won there.

437
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 13: Do you feel too, what is the difference from.

438
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 9: You when when you get to that.

439
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 14: I feel I feel ready to fly around, and I

440
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 14: think you you kind of see it week by week

441
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 14: being able to move around and just feel good to

442
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 14: be back, be.

443
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 12: Healthy and you know, get back to myself. All right,

444
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 12: Thank you, Mark.

445
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: That was tight end, Mark Andrews. And last, but certainly

446
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: not least, is quarterback Lamar Jackson.

447
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 6: I would like to have OBJ andshot to your offense.

448
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 12: Also can be a chilled.

449
00:17:58,960 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 15: In the back Tom.

450
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 18: Uh, it's wonderful lot more speed on the field. Uh,

451
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 18: got a vet out there looking forward to it.

452
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 13: Kind of change the dynamic and that, you know, place

453
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 13: to give you more weapons, having you know, Bathings and

454
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 13: uh and Obja out there. And how does that just

455
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 13: change maybe your confidence level or or just the options

456
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 13: or things like that.

457
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 18: Uh, Like you said, the option, the option part, more

458
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 18: guys on the field getting open a harder job for

459
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 18: me because those guys want the ball as well.

460
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 9: Is onunder one football on the field.

461
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 18: So that's pretty much the the problem for me.

462
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 9: But it's a good problem to have, right.

463
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 15: When I think air yards per attempts are down league wide.

464
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 15: They just not as many teams completed the deep balls.

465
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 15: Are you seeing defenses change in in in their approach

466
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 15: and trying to take that away from offensive.

467
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 18: I believe in this day and there's just a lot

468
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 18: more speed on the field with a lot of offenses

469
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 18: in the NFL, and uh, it's making defenses play off

470
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 18: a lot more and just making sure no guys beat

471
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 18: 'em over the top. And that's pretty much whyse that

472
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 18: that situations happening right now. Not a lot of deep passes,

473
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 18: a lot of air passes down the field right now?

474
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 3: What uh, Raven Steelers? I mean, it's always been a

475
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 3: tough battle for you. Yea when you guys put teams

476
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 3: to people, what what is really stands out overall? Just

477
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 3: when you whenever you.

478
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 18: Have to play against the Steelers, you un Uh, it's

479
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 18: it's a different one, uh, out of all the out

480
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 18: of the Browns and uh in the Cincinnati Bengals, this

481
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 18: one's like it's uh, the atmosphere is different, Like it's

482
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 18: more intense, more aggressive even in practice.

483
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 9: You know, guys just getting pumped for for this game.

484
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 9: That's about it.

485
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you look at.

486
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 5: The red zone success you guys have had how.

487
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 16: Much of it do you attribute to or some new

488
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 16: schemes and new new formations and offense, and how much

489
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 16: do you think like the bends are of finding a

490
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 16: comfort So I.

491
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 5: Mean like you and Mark for example, that guy's been

492
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 5: teammates for years.

493
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 16: Is our ages developed or word that has made you

494
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 16: more successful in scoring test jings?

495
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 12: Uh?

496
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 18: I believe, uh just taking our time moving in the

497
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 18: red zone, not trying to rush anything. That's just that's

498
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 18: giving us so much success right now this season. We

499
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 18: just need to keep it going. I don't wanna stay

500
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 18: you know, he's just stay talking about that for too long,

501
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 18: but we just need to stay where we at right

502
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 18: now and stay focused, locked there and when we touch

503
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 18: the black zone e or or Mark talked about.

504
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: That, How is important to have a laite focus when

505
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,360
Speaker 1: you go up against a team like the Steelers. How

506
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: does his kind of he seems like he's always intense

507
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: and focused at all times.

508
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 3: How does that sort of affect.

509
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 5: You guys as an offensive?

510
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,719
Speaker 3: Well, it's y have kind of have a leader like that.

511
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 5: It's that's always kind of locked in.

512
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 12: Uh F.

513
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 18: That's great to have. I I love him Mark locked

514
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 18: there and he gets on other guys. You know, yeah,

515
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,120
Speaker 18: let's stay locked in. Even myself included, you know, not

516
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 18: not him getting on me staying lockt there cause I'm

517
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 18: locked in, but let him getting on other guys. Just

518
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 18: keep keeping them focused, you know, because it's in they

519
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 18: giving play.

520
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 9: You know.

521
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 18: We we tryna score on our offense. We just trying

522
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 18: to draw the ball down the field and put points

523
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 18: on the board. So us staying focus it helps us

524
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 18: out a lot.

525
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,959
Speaker 16: Or if you look at your numbers career, you know,

526
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 16: a far more success to get Cincinnati Cleveland than you

527
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 16: have up against Pittsburgh.

528
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 5: Who what's the challenge they representing?

529
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 3: Is there anything that you could point to.

530
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 16: For why offensively you guys may not have put up

531
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 16: the numbers you have against the other AGEC Northeast.

532
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 9: Uh, I don't know. I I just said that too.

533
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 18: It us like it's different when we played the Steelers,

534
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 18: but hopefully it's a different outcome this season.

535
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 9: I don't know what it is, but hopefully it's different.

536
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 9: Right now, what's it like to.

537
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 3: Go against rokwand and practice?

538
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 16: What was he like kind of looking at across the line.

539
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 18: Uh, well, I had to go against ro rocann Well,

540
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 18: I call him Rohan Hardest called him Rohan, and I

541
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 18: just kept the name. But uh, going against Rohan and

542
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 18: practice is it's like in the game, but I'm not

543
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 18: getting tackled. You know, he's communicating to the guys you know,

544
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 18: oh this might be coming up.

545
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 12: You know.

546
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 9: He he's a I'll say he's a great study.

547
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 18: Because he called out players not ours, but he be

548
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 18: calling him out when I'm watching, you know, the the

549
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 18: the scouts team go up. He's a great linebacker. And

550
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 18: then it helps us out a lot.

551
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 5: Though, how do he affect the culture now?

552
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 18: He affect on sure when he got here last year,

553
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 18: I think our defense like allowed uh certain amount of

554
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 18: points to be scored, probably like thirteen points or something

555
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 18: like that. That's the effect he had, you know, just

556
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 18: no point, barely points being scored on us. Uh, everyone

557
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 18: playing like fundamental sound speed to the ball, and he's

558
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 18: like a Raylewise for us.

559
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 3: What what's it?

560
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 13: What's it been like going against the Steelers? It you

561
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 13: because you've mentioned you know, they're obviously streames, always close,

562
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 13: they're tough. Does it feel more physical in some ways

563
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 13: than than something that game to.

564
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 5: You have or you know, knocked you around?

565
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:37,239
Speaker 10: Uh?

566
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 9: N Uh I believe every game physical. Every game is physical.

567
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 18: But I don't even I probably played Stillers like three

568
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 18: four times. I haven't been playing three times. I only

569
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 18: played against some three times, so I really haven't. I

570
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 18: don't think I played my best against him yet.

571
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 9: But uh, I don't know. We're gonna see Sunday.

572
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 15: How would do you like when you get your number

573
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 15: calls as a runner in the Reds A. I mean,

574
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 15: you've been so stressful down there obviously the past two weeks.

575
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 15: You know, just you feel like it opens up a

576
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 15: lot of things defensively because you're running.

577
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 18: Ability the defense give us a look for me to

578
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 18: run or my numbers call and whatever is gonna take

579
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 18: it for us to get into his own I'm gonna

580
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 18: do it. I'm gonna try to do it at least

581
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 18: one hundred miles for hour, and.

582
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 9: If the defense give us that look, that's what it'll be.

583
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 12: All right?
