What would you use for that? 11 00:00:54,720 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: Your body is a scum, that's why. But you know, 12 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: uh yeah that and uh hey I thought I did 13 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: on that. All right, let's get into real questions. How 14 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: much do you like the way that the defense is 15 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: progressing on a weekly basis and maybe even a daily 16 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,559 Speaker 1: basis as you go through practice. We are we're playing 17 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: well with jelling and uh. I think everybody appreciate the 18 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 1: effort that every uh individual is putting in to get 19 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: better at his craft. And I think we just got 20 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: to kind of continue to build off of day to 21 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: day and every day get better. And I think everybody's 22 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: coming in and doing that communication getting you through that. 23 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 1: You know, the communication during the game amongst each other 24 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: very important. Man. Uh, I think if you see it 25 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: when uh, you don't communicate well, like some people can 26 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: kind of go out there in me and I'm just 27 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: saying around the league, but when you see team and 28 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: they communicating very well, when they walking around touching and 29 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: defensive lineman's getting them a right position, and the linebackers 30 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: communicating with the safeties, nickels stars all that. Uh, you 31 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: Jesse a very fast football team. And I think when 32 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: you're playing fast, you're playing confidence like that and speaking 33 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: and your vocal that's how you become a really good 34 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: football team. As a defense. Have you had conversation with 35 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: Bill your your snapcount sumily ten percent of this year? 36 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: Which doesn't is that about protecting yourself and I'm protecting 37 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: but sort of saving some of your body for December 38 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: and January. Man, I didn't even notice. Man, I honestly 39 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: think that it's just more other guys are playing well. Um, 40 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: if you look at josh Uch before, he wasn't playing. 41 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: If you look at Aunt he wasn't even here last 42 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: year with us and uh wis and I think it's 43 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: just those guys playing well as well, and so we're 44 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: just able to rotate and keep everybody's body fresh. And 45 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: so it's not that oh I'm not playing I'm playing 46 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 1: less or they just playing more because they're playing well 47 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: and they deserve to be out there and I have 48 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,839 Speaker 1: you know, like when they make plays, I make plays too. 49 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: Our defense make plays as well, and so I'm an 50 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: extension to them. They're extension to me. I wasn't suggesting, 51 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: you know, I'm playing well because they think. We all 52 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: agree that you're playing really well at high level. So 53 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: maybe it does that help a little bit you feel 54 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: a little bit fresher. Well, that's what That's what I'm saying, 55 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: that we're extension to each other. That they're playing well, 56 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: and it allows me to play play more fresher and 57 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: be fresher when I get in there, and so I 58 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: appreciate them, and then we just feed off each other. 59 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: And so if I need to play ninety snaps, I can, 60 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: but right now I don't have to. And uh, I 61 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: just commend those guys for stepping up. Uh, and they 62 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: feel fulfilling roles and big roles. We heard the money 63 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: night football chime at the beginning of practice, just how 64 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: exited are you guys to playing prime time football? Be 65 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: the only team playing? Uh, you know that's that's a 66 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: big game, everybody watching, all eyes on you. But you 67 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: gotta prepare, you know, like nobody's gonna be watching, or 68 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: you gotta prepare like everybody's gonna be watching, because that's 69 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: that's what it is. You always the eye and the 70 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: Scott never lies. And it's just gonna be a lot 71 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: more film. There's a lot more cameras, a lot more 72 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: media people at the game, and a lot more people 73 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: talking about it just for one night. So you gotta 74 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: go out there and prepare, and you gotta put your 75 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: best foot for it when your only game on. Is 76 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: the approach different with justin quarterback? I know you played 77 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: mobile quarterbacks the fort Lamar. Obviously he's a little bit bigger, 78 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: thicker guy. Like does that change how will you attack him? 79 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: I think like almost every week we're playing the mobile quarterback. Like, 80 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,679 Speaker 1: I think that's kind of what the kind of bill 81 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: for a quarterback is now be able to make all 82 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: the throws and be able to when everything break down, 83 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: escape the pocket and pick up some yards and keep 84 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: the change moving. And so I think, uh, with just 85 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: in being a quarterback like that. Uh, kind of a 86 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: big a bigger bill and a mobile guy and a 87 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: strong arm but also can move and it's very fluid 88 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: in the pocket and be able to break tackles. Uh. 89 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: So he's going to be a challenge for us. He's 90 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: going to be a difficult guy to bring down and 91 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: get tax on. Uh, but you know we're up for 92 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: the challenge. Matthew Devin McCord. He said, I think it 93 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: was last week. You guys want to get addicted to 94 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: the feeling of winning? Here gets hear that line, Yeah, 95 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: what is that kind of feeling? Like, oh yeah, kind 96 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: of talks about it. Uh, And I think we y'all 97 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 1: kind of felt it um in our lives before, like 98 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: when you get it like a big job or a 99 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: big interview or anything. But for us, is the feeling 100 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: the winning games and uh, that just joy and that 101 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: emotion you have and everybody hugging and slapping hands and 102 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: all that, and so you just wanna you just always 103 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: want to have that in the locker room. You want 104 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 1: to have that to be the next feeling you have 105 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: after a game. And uh, and you don't want to 106 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: get used to the other feeling and so right, and 107 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: when you get addicted to winning, you get addicted to 108 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: the things that cause you to win, the preparation, the film, 109 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: Sundy and everything that goes into it, just because you 110 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: want that feeling again, and so just get addicted to winning, 111 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: and it's just preparing to win. I think so. But yeah, 112 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: Death talks about it a little bit, but it stood 113 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: out to you over these last two games to take 114 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: on two tough offenses, but the defense dominants. But overall 115 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: that also translating too wins. I think it's everybody, Honestly. 116 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: I think the defense is playing well because the offense 117 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: go out dinner score and now we're playing from ahead, 118 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: and I think we are creating turnovers better. I think 119 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: who are off special teams? Wise, we're flipping field position, 120 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: it's hitting yardage in there, and so I think, uh, 121 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: just everybody's feeding off one another, you know, Like we 122 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: got the offense back and they got our back. And 123 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: so just if we give up a touchdow Hunter, if 124 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: we give up some points or we give up a 125 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: long drive, the offense go back out there and uh, 126 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: they have our back. And the same thing when the 127 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: offense go out there and score and have a long 128 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: drive and keep the ball for a little bit. We 129 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: try to get the ball right back to them and 130 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: forced air defense to stop our offense. Because we know 131 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: what we have in the locker room and we know 132 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: what type of team we want to be, and when 133 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: we can play like that, that's what that's our method 134 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: of winning. That's our method of winning. Um that it 135 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: seems like you guys are facing the athletic quarterback every week. 136 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: I think like twenty years ago, Mike, it was sort 137 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: of like the outlier. But now that's for to now 138 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: it seems like if you guys run into a pocket 139 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: past week, that guys are sort of outlier. Is it 140 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: sort of flipped in since in recent years? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 141 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: I think so. Just that's how they that's how they 142 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: raise them now. I think, uh, the arm angles and 143 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: the the situations where you gotta throw it, I think. Uh. 144 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: I think also defenses have involved as well. Uh defense 145 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: events and inside pass orch is also involved. And it's 146 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: not just a lot of big run stoppers, a lot 147 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: of a lot of fast guys and so UM, I 148 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: think if you just look throughout the years, you kind 149 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: of see that evolution. Now you got guys like Lamar 150 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: Josh and Patrick or Kyler Murray the guy uh that 151 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: got huge arms, and Justin falls in that category of 152 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 1: guys that got huge arms that can stand in the 153 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: pocket if they wanted to, but also they can kill 154 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: what they let their legs. They can have fifty two 155 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: one hundred yards if you don't defend them correctly, stank 156 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: you
