1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, nay, out there all right, what we got? How 2 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:17,119 Speaker 1: how do you guys? I try to maximize the time? Yeah, day, Yeah, 3 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean I think just getting healthy for one. You know, 4 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: obviously it's not the same for everyone. People are dealing 5 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: different things, but everyone's dealing with something. At this point 6 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: in the season. You played seven games and uh so 7 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: just getting the body back feeling good, it's a big 8 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: part of it. I think mentally resetting knowing what's ahead 9 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: of us. You know, we got a ten game stretch 10 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: now ahead of us to put us in position at 11 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: the end of this thing. So we need we need, 12 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: you know, everyone in the right mental headspace, everyone healthy. 13 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: So I think just using that time for that. Obviously 14 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: you kind of think about it's hard to not think 15 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: about you know, who you're playing next and the opponent 16 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: and kind of start getting into that a little bit. 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: But try to push some of that off, just to 18 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: give yourself some time to resec You've been going at 19 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: it since training camp started, really all the way through 20 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: and whole week seven and then you finally get a 21 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: little little time to just breathe a little bit. So 22 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: I think it's a good reset mentally more than anything. 23 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: So like Scout or that is what you see. Yeah, 24 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: I mean that just the the things that we've talked 25 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: about that we knew that we've known, or problems I 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: guess that we haven't done well are are evident that 27 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: we need to improve on. I think when you take 28 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: a step back from it, though, and really look at 29 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: it for what it is, Yes, we need to improve, 30 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: we need to get better, and we haven't and we 31 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,839 Speaker 1: haven't played our standard, but it's very you know, correctible 32 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: things and things that I know that we can execute 33 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: and can do well and we can be a really 34 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 1: good offense. So we haven't done that to this point. 35 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: I haven't played a complete game, but feel very optimistic 36 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: about where we're heading, the direction we're going. Everyone being 37 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: on the same page. I think that's a big thing, 38 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: which was good for the open week to go on 39 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: the same page, to talk about some stuff, what we 40 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: need to get better at, what we need to correct 41 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: and I really feel confident, optimistic moving forward and like 42 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: this unit is gonna, you know, really make the improvements 43 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: and obviously starts with me, and I'm excited for another opportunity. 44 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: I think Max Rodney with each other and just players 45 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: and really good player, very good. He's just he's one 46 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: of those guys. You know, there's a there's a handful 47 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:24,839 Speaker 1: of them in this I mean a lot of great 48 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: players in this league. But as far as just those 49 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: defensive edge you know, defensive end, pass rusher guys that 50 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: are he's just constant, NonStop. I think that's what you 51 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: know is admirable about his play is that it is 52 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: just such a high motor. Obviously he's athletic, and he's 53 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: skilled and strong and good instincts, but he plays really hard, 54 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 1: so and that's something where he makes a lot of 55 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: plays because of that. You know, it's not always, it's 56 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: not always he's just winning right away. He has plenty 57 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: of those on tape too. But it's the the effort 58 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: to chase the ball, to go after it, to call 59 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,679 Speaker 1: us fumbles, you know, to tip balls in the air. 60 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: It's all those things I think make him a great player. 61 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: And as you can tell, you know, we have a 62 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: lot of respect for him, and you know, obviously have 63 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: to think of him when you're game planning. Oh, Trevor 64 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: Liam said on under the apports of getting the screen 65 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: game going, what has been missing when you've tried to 66 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: run a couple of those. I think it's been different 67 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: things at different times. You know, a couple of times 68 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: defenses they sniff out some screens. That's happened just a 69 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: few times to us, and so it's either throwaway or 70 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: you know, tackle line scrimmage that that just happens when 71 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: you're on screens occasionally. And then some other ones execution 72 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: things maybe you know, maybe it's not the right landmark 73 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: by whoever's catching it. Maybe it's the throws a little 74 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: bit on the wrong shoulder so we don't hit it, 75 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: increase it right right on time to set up the blocks. 76 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: You know, maybe a offensive lineman got hung up inside. 77 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: There's so many different things that can happen. But saying 78 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: all that is, it's just on us to execute cleaner, 79 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: you know, all the time on those screens, because there's 80 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: some big opportunities for us, and it's something that we 81 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: got to be better at. And I think we know 82 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: how we need to improve and the different factors that 83 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: have kind of come up in the past few weeks 84 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: when we have maybe had some plays left out there, 85 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: I said, Brian is going to get things wrong with again, 86 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm very confident, you know, I've had some really good 87 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: conversations with Brian. I think we've gotten closer really the 88 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: last obviously over the last couple of years as this 89 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: has gone, and I have a lot of confidence in him, 90 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: and you know, he's such a young player. I mean, 91 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: he's in his second year, and I think that's part 92 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: of developing as a player in this league. And I've 93 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: gone through a lot of my own challenges as well, 94 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: and in times where you know, maybe I didn't play 95 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,799 Speaker 1: my best and felt like I was leaving some stuff 96 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: out there. And so I think us just having that relationship, 97 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: being able to talk to him, he's been He's been 98 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: awesome with me and very receptive, and I think the 99 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: communication has been great, and I got all the confidence 100 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: that he's gonna play really well and be just fine. 101 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: So I'm not concerned with that obviously, excited for for 102 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: these opportunities that are coming up and the ones especially 103 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: that he's gonna have, which I keep plugging away, keep working, 104 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: you know, keep building our chemistry, because that's a lot 105 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: of it too. You know, it's not he's not out 106 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: there by himself trying to do it. You know, he's 107 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: got me throwing the ball. There's some things I can 108 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: do better. He's got ten other guys that are that 109 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: are out there with him that also need to do 110 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 1: a better job. So it's it's not just not just 111 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: him in terms of travis Is involvement in the offense. Obviously, 112 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: it was a career high for him the last time 113 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: you guys play a football game. But in terms of 114 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: the call and gro forward, in terms of his growth 115 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: and his knowledge and playbook, howage assessed on all the 116 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: buy there, he is. He's in a good spot. I 117 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: think every week he keeps getting better and better as 118 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: far as just knowledge and understanding and things are clicking 119 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: more and more. Just got to continue to work. Just 120 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: because we're making progress, doesn't mean we stop. And we 121 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: got to keep, you know, helping him every way we can, 122 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: just because I know being that in that spot, he's 123 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: a young player, and I think just the more I 124 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: can do for him to help him, the better we're 125 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: going to be. And he's done a great job of 126 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: just grasping everything on both sides of the ball. It's 127 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: a challenge obviously to do that. He's done a great 128 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: job of it. So continue to help him. Just talking 129 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: communicating about different looks. I think you're seeing that to 130 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: start to evolve into knowing what he's seeing and him 131 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: knowing what I'm thinking with certain looks, what to do, 132 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: the right spot to be, and how he's going to 133 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: run routes. I'm getting more of a feel for how 134 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: he plays, and I think that's just going to continue 135 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: to grow and grow as we go on. Get okay 136 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: you be a more balance, kind of help the passing. 137 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: It It just all helps each other. It's like a 138 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: big circle, like if you I mean, he says that, 139 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: and it's great because you know, as a coach and 140 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: a play caller, to hear him take accountability to the 141 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: team is pretty cool because obviously, as players were the 142 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: ones playing and we know there's a lot of things 143 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: we need to do better execution wise, and at the 144 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: end of the day, it comes down to us on 145 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: the field making it happen. But to hear your coach 146 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: take accountability is great. And but on the flip side 147 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: of that, if we can stay out of some second 148 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: and long so we can help him stay more balanced 149 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: and call him plays, you know, so that's better having 150 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: better plays on first down, whether that's more completions. We've 151 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: had a lot of incompletions, had some second and lungs, 152 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: or better first down runs, executing runs better. So there's 153 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: a lot of different things where we can help him 154 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: call the game how he wants to by just executing 155 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: better some of the simple things. And I know as 156 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: a quarterback, I've had some plays here and there to 157 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: start games where I feel like I could get us 158 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: on track earlier so that we can settle in and 159 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: not be playing behind the chains. How rare is that 160 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: from your experience to have the head coach called I 161 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: mean it, it happens. I think that it's definitely happened 162 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: in the past. I think the way everyone does it 163 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: is unique, and I think the way coach has done 164 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: it has been awesome. It's been very i'd say, genuine, 165 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: very honest, and he shows examples of like, hey, this 166 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: is cause it's one thing to say, hey, I gotta 167 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: be better here, and but then not to have any 168 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: early examples of what you can do better and for 169 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: him to like he'll put stuff up there and say 170 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: it in front of the team of hey, this was 171 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: not my best call here, and like this is what 172 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: I you know, and how he's going to fix it 173 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: moving forward. And I think just stuff like that is 174 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: as players, you know that he's not just faking it. 175 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: He actually believes that there's things that he needs to 176 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: better to help us, and we know as players there's 177 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff we need to better help him. 178 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: So I think that it accountability is really cool when 179 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: everyone is taking their share of it, because you all 180 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: want to take more accountability when you see people around 181 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: you doing it. It's nice, all right, Thank you all.
