1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,239
Speaker 1: Guys. Just the injuries from the game. Christian had a

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: something with his calf, didn't return, possible calf strain. We

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:12,159
Speaker 1: have to see tomorrow on it though. Yes, that's why

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: were laid in here. It was awesome. Well, didn't want

5
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 1: to really try to not pay attention to it, didn't

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,080
Speaker 1: want to get our hearts broke, but we did right

7
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: there at the end, and they pulled it out. That

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: was pretty cool to see. We, I mean, we think

9
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: will be all right. I don't know if he would

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: have been able to go next week or not, but

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 1: we'll have to find out more tomorrow. But he was

12
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,599
Speaker 1: moving around all right on the sideline, so hoping that

13
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,959
Speaker 1: it's not too bad. But I want to know tomorrow.

14
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I really didn't think about it. We

15
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: were just focused on this. I'll definitely try to rest

16
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: some guys, but I mean, you can't rest everybody. It's

17
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 1: too hard. You don't have enough players. So we got

18
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: to fill the team without a doubt. But and we're

19
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: gonna have a big week of practice, you know. I

20
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: still think there's lots of things we got to obviously get

21
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 1: a lot better at, and the only way you do

22
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 1: that is playing football and practice and football. So I

23
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,199
Speaker 1: have a big Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, figure out our roster

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: as the week goes, and decide what we'll do for Sunday.

25
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: It's huge, uh, you know, in these last couple of weeks,

26
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: just we've been a little banged up and there's been

27
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: a couple of positions that just we've been getting rolled

28
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: thin at. Guys had to push through a number of

29
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: spots and some of those guys are doing that. Hopefully

30
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: this will help him out. I thought Elijah did a

31
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: great job, you know. I mean when Elijah's healthy, I

32
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: think he's as good as anybody. It's he's been working

33
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: to come back. He was close to last week and

34
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: has had had a real good week this week, and

35
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: he was ready for the moment. And then when Christian

36
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: went down, he just came in took over. So I

37
00:01:53,120 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: thought I did a real good job. Still, how big

38
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: was that? Yeah, he's I mean, he's at a hell

39
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: of a year and that was a big Uh. That

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: was a good call by Steve Collin. Zero quarterback had

41
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: to get rid of it and Mooney was all over

42
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: him and then he made the catch. I wish they

43
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: would have blown it earlier cause watch him use a

44
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: lot of effort, but it was cool to watch him

45
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: almost score. I wasn't sure if he was down or not.

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: But he's been playing his ass off for a little

47
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: bit now and keeps getting better field. I was a

48
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: little nervous at first saw him running around, and I

49
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: just wanted to make sure we don't lose yards or

50
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: anything like that, cause I thought we we were at

51
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: least in field goal range. But he created bought some time.

52
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: And then when I saw that ball leave going across

53
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: the field and quickly looked to where it was and

54
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: he was all alone, quickly was excited. So it's a

55
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: hell of a play by him, and it's great to

56
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: get seven there. Coach, you hear about that. I mean,

57
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: you don't calling off script play when lots of times

58
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 1: players don't work in practice, and when they don't work,

59
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: the quarterback breaks the pocket and you just have rules

60
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: and stuff. I'm coaching guys on how they distribute the field,

61
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: and but yeah, anytime the play doesn't work, whenever we

62
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: use it as a rep to do that type of stuff.

63
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: And uh, he's got a good knack for it. Well,

64
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: he's talk about how do you like I mean, it's

65
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: not that I don't mind talking about football, it's just

66
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: it's hard to keep trying to come up with things

67
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: to say when there's four clips and each one of

68
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: them is different, you know, So it's just a simple

69
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: football play. And then I think it's real tough when

70
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: someone does that and it's about football, and then he's

71
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: got to answer questions all week about how his mental

72
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: state is, how everything is. It's just how the world works,

73
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: and it's just a football game. He studied his tail

74
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: off all week, practiced well, knew some of the reasons

75
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: he made some mistakes in the game before, and just

76
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: treated like any other week. And I think it's good

77
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: to get out there and didn't have any picks today,

78
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: which I think would be good to not have to

79
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: answer questions on those. But I thought it was a

80
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: hell of a deal for him. I mean, I've had

81
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: a lot of real good quarterbacks in this organization, and

82
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: you know, just being told in there that he broke

83
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: the record for the whole time yards in a year,

84
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: that's a pretty big accomplishment by him and everyone else

85
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: in there. So it's cool to do that today and

86
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: and to lock up to one seed kind of you

87
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: guys on Monday across country flight. What does it say

88
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: about what you guys have built here in the last

89
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: couple of years to just be able to handle all

90
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 1: of the adniversary you were talking about that. That was

91
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: real proud of the guys today because it was it

92
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: was a tough week. I mean, I think it was

93
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: more about the motions of last week. Whenever you have

94
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: a big game like that, and it's just it's so

95
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: exciting to play on Christmas in front of everyone, those

96
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: two the two teams with the records, and it's just

97
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: the motions for everybody was huge, and then it's you're

98
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: tired from that. Takes a while to get everyone back

99
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: going again, not just physically but also mentally. So I

100
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: had a lot of concerns about that throughout the week,

101
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 1: talk to the players a lot about it, but you

102
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: never know how they're gonna be till game day. And

103
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: I was just pumped at they went out, don't worry

104
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: about anything else and found a way to win. It's good,

105
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: but important is he to what you guys do. It's

106
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: tough to win without a left tackle you can trust,

107
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: and it helps you win when probably have the best

108
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: left tackle. Ever, he's a guy that we don't have

109
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: to worry about. He's a guy that makes plays for

110
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: us too. You know, being with Trend's rookie year all

111
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: the way to now, he's always has been. He almost

112
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: looks the same. I mean, he you think he's not

113
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: gonna been to his knees much and walk through and stuff,

114
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 1: which I give him hard time for. But once that

115
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: ball snaps, he looks like he's twenty three. So he's

116
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: as good of an athlete as I've been around. He's

117
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: one of the biggest best leaders on our team. Football

118
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: is very important Trent, and he really enjoys playing, he

119
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: really enjoys studying it. And I just feel very fortunate

120
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: to have him on our team. And I can't say

121
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: enough about Trent any any emotions as far as today,

122
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: you're no, not at all. This is I used to

123
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 1: have those, but it's a totally different place here now

124
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: and different people, and you know, there's nothing personal here anymore.

125
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: The personal stuff is gone. As a coach, uh, I'm

126
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: I'm he's with winning, and then after you win, then

127
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: you kind of look at all the other stats, and

128
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: especially after last week, I mean, the turnovers and penalties

129
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: I think made it really tough to win. So I'm

130
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: glad we cleaned that up, and I'm glad we got

131
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: the W all right, all right, guys, thanks
