Speaker 1: From the game.
Speaker 2: JP Mason had a shoulder did not return on the
Speaker 2: same one. Dee Winners had a concussion, didn't return, Deebo
Speaker 2: Samuel Ribbs didn't return, Ronaldo Green ankle didn't return.
Speaker 3: Go Ahead, hadn't played a whole lot. He had six
Speaker 3: yards of.
Speaker 2: Carry tonight, thought did a great job, came in, he
Speaker 2: was ready to go. JP got banged up. JP tried
Speaker 2: to come back and maybe could have, but Isaac was
Speaker 2: rolling and did a good job. It was a halftime message.
Speaker 3: You guys obviously came out really well in the third quarter.
Speaker 2: So was there anything Stop having penalties, Stop having penalties.
Speaker 2: There was no message. It was we got to stop
Speaker 2: hurting ourselves, you know. You know, we had I think
Speaker 2: seven and a half yards of play in the first
Speaker 2: half and had a bunch of big penalties that I
Speaker 2: thought really hurt us. You know, Deebo's obvious one getting
Speaker 2: called back, a couple of the holdings on some long runs,
Speaker 2: and then you know, missing that fourth down was big.
Speaker 1: We felt we were doing some good stuff, but we
Speaker 1: hurt ourself.
Speaker 2: And it was nice to start off in the third
Speaker 2: courter and go down and score right away, and.
Speaker 1: D started rolling.
Speaker 2: I think we got to turn over the next drive
Speaker 2: and did it again and got on a little groove
Speaker 2: there for a little bit.
Speaker 3: In the fourth corner when they were when they were.
Speaker 2: Coming back and big I mean, when you're up seventeen
Speaker 2: or whatever it was thirteen and then uh take it
Speaker 2: to six point game and you're getting the ball with
Speaker 2: three minutes left.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just normal football.
Speaker 2: And for the d to struggle for a couple of
Speaker 2: series like they did, and then when they got it
Speaker 2: back for a possible game winning drive to go four
Speaker 2: and out was huge.
Speaker 3: What was so special about play in the second half
Speaker 3: and think this is a sign of things to come.
Speaker 1: After the Uh yeah, I do.
Speaker 2: I mean I think it was a gut check for him,
Speaker 2: I mean for all of us. You know, things in
Speaker 2: the first half. You know we were close, but it
Speaker 2: didn't go great Brock. There was a couple of plays
Speaker 2: I know he'd love to have back, and I thought
Speaker 2: he came out in the second half and there's a
Speaker 2: few plays that weren't there, and he did a hell
Speaker 2: of job extending with his feet. The one in particular,
Speaker 2: we're trying to throw a screen at Debo and the
Speaker 2: d N peeled with it and which just means you
Speaker 2: have no play, and he just ran and turned it
Speaker 2: into a sixty sixteen yarder. So he did some real
Speaker 2: big things there in the second half.
Speaker 3: You're just about the reisone issues and the.
Speaker 1: Course the fort nine has.
Speaker 4: Came out with a lot of boys, al those driving
Speaker 4: to score twenty four talk about how they were able
Speaker 4: to solve.
Speaker 1: Those Rais issues. I mean, it was just one game.
Speaker 1: It's a long year.
Speaker 2: We'll see where we end up in the red zone
Speaker 2: at the end of the year. But I thought we
Speaker 2: ran the ball much better down there and that helps.
Speaker 4: Your four and four going into buy Can you assess
Speaker 4: how these first A games on and what you see you.
Speaker 1: Coming up in the second half.
Speaker 2: I can maybe do that for you tomorrow. I'm just
Speaker 2: thinking about this game right now, but I'm glad. You know,
Speaker 2: you know, you always go into a season you expect
Speaker 2: to win them on all, so you're not exactly where
Speaker 2: you want to be.
Speaker 1: But going into this game, we knew this was a
Speaker 1: big win.
Speaker 2: You know, we didn't want to be three and five
Speaker 2: going into the bye week, having your backs against the
Speaker 2: wall like that.
Speaker 1: Getting that win was huge.
Speaker 2: Being four and four, not not at all the record
Speaker 2: that we wanted when we set out, But when you
Speaker 2: look at our division and everything, feel in a real
Speaker 2: good spot, and especially finishing in.
Speaker 1: Here with a win.
Speaker 2: Hopefully we can take some time off, rest a little bit,
Speaker 2: get a couple of guys back, hopefully and come back
Speaker 2: and string some wins together here in the second half.
Speaker 4: That can okay, go ahead here.
Speaker 3: Since he was a rookie, is there anything he does
Speaker 3: it surprises you?
Speaker 1: It is and he and your mind still an a
Speaker 1: sending player.
Speaker 2: Kittle, I mean, Kittle's Kittle is a man. So especially
Speaker 2: on his holiday, usually he does better. But there's a
Speaker 2: couple of things in the first half, and just like
Speaker 2: Brock that he missed a couple of would have loved
Speaker 2: to have back, and he came back in the second
Speaker 2: half and just play as good as you can. Going
Speaker 2: back to I'm taking this going back to Gondo, what
Speaker 2: do you think, what do you tribute kind of his
Speaker 2: surge of confidence to in the last several weeks, because
Speaker 2: there's certainly.
Speaker 3: Been a more difference.
Speaker 2: I think, you know, I think he's learned from torn
Speaker 2: He's gotten you know, there's a couple of runs earlier
Speaker 2: in the year that he did all right on but
Speaker 2: you know, we great him pretty hard, everybody pretty hard,
Speaker 2: and you know, he had a couple like four yard
Speaker 2: runs we thought he could have got seven yards on.
Speaker 2: You know, we go pretty hard on him, and then
Speaker 2: you watch how he takes that to practice and you
Speaker 2: know everything we've really kind of been pushing him with.
Speaker 1: He's been real coachable. He's not a sensitive guy.
Speaker 2: He's real detailed, and he's very poised for a rookie.
Speaker 2: Things aren't too big for him, and didn't get a
Speaker 2: lot of pre season, but once he got healthy there
Speaker 2: and throughout this year, I feel he's gotten better each week.
Speaker 3: On that question, as you drop a game plan with
Speaker 3: receivers hurt like you have, how comforting is it sort
Speaker 3: of to have a tight end like that who's been
Speaker 3: so reliable for so long, and it obviously has a
Speaker 3: report with.
Speaker 1: Rot It's very comfortable.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it was a challenge, you know,
Speaker 2: losing some of these guys, losing BA last week and
Speaker 2: not having Jawan Debot being a little banged up, and
Speaker 2: then not having them there late in the game. You
Speaker 2: need everyone to step up, and I thought a lot
Speaker 2: of guys did, and Kittle did in a huge way.
Speaker 3: Rendo Piersol a big third down catch.
Speaker 4: You're playing the stuff and you're playing green, you can
Speaker 4: obviously pooty in the middle of the game or even
Speaker 4: after because it hit you, like, my god, this this
Speaker 4: rookie class.
Speaker 3: If you didn't have them, something else that would be
Speaker 3: happening this season.
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I think about that lot during
Speaker 2: the week. I mean, that's that's who we're practicing a
Speaker 2: lot with during the week. You know, we went into
Speaker 2: this year, we thought it'd be real hard for a
Speaker 2: lot of the rookies cert and starting positions just where
Speaker 2: our team was at. But we believed that they were
Speaker 2: gonna give some real good depth and you hope to
Speaker 2: have some good luck and stuff and I have to
Speaker 2: get to that, but we haven't in all areas. And
Speaker 2: unfortunately that a lot of those guys are players. They
Speaker 2: showed it in pre season and when their number has
Speaker 2: been called, they've all come in and done their job
Speaker 2: and they all continue to get better to.
Speaker 3: What happened on the sack when you're when you're up
Speaker 3: six sack the last or second to last drive for
Speaker 3: you guys, whatever the play and how presive was for
Speaker 3: prop to be able to hold on.
Speaker 1: Oh on the one that you got sacked on.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they had everyone up with the line of scrimmage,
Speaker 2: so we had a can which is just how we
Speaker 2: get out of place. Audible but uh, which he had
Speaker 2: Ricky all wide open. But the guy in the line
Speaker 2: of scrimmage hit it so hard and he kind of
Speaker 2: get it off.
Speaker 1: So it was really an unbelievable play by Brock. Now fumbling,
Speaker 1: I think Brock has a scrambling. What does that aspect
Speaker 1: of his game add to the offense.
Speaker 2: It just adds another tool. I mean, it's really tough
Speaker 2: the heat of battle, just with all those plays and
Speaker 2: situations that you know, you get sometimes where if the
Speaker 2: guys aren't opening things that the play's over, or just
Speaker 2: when someone you know misses in the pocket and someone
Speaker 2: gets there.
Speaker 1: Usually ends fast.
Speaker 2: But Brock's got the quickness to get away from people.
Speaker 2: He's got a kind of feeling when to hit it.
Speaker 2: And uh, he was awesome today with a scrambling, and
Speaker 2: he's been awesom all year.
Speaker 1: With its rigs and Ernardo's ankle.
Speaker 4: Do you have any indication.
Speaker 1: How serious are I don't, well, there were some discussions,
Speaker 1: see I don't love Grendo actually meant to slide, he maintained,
Speaker 1: of course he did. But obviously there's no doubt on
Speaker 1: this one.
Speaker 3: I guess do you agree with that? And it's pretty
Speaker 3: heads up for Rocky something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we told him on the one, but he listened
Speaker 2: at least. It's hard to turn that down when you're
Speaker 2: running in and I'm glad he did it for the
Speaker 2: second time, but this one was much better.
Speaker 3: Obviously had a big role in this game. When when
Speaker 3: did you know that he could handle a big role
Speaker 3: when he went.
Speaker 2: Through I mean watching him at I mean, it wasn't
Speaker 2: necessarily the big I didn't really know he could have
Speaker 2: a big role until really talking to him Saturday. But
Speaker 2: the fact he was able to come out and practice
Speaker 2: some on Thursday and you know, do some back to
Speaker 2: back plays and stuff, just seeing how it was. And
Speaker 2: you know, when you hear that stuff at the beginning
Speaker 2: of the week and pneumonia and things like that, it's,
Speaker 2: you know, my mind, he's kind of rolled out. But
Speaker 2: you know, when they started working him out on Tuesday
Speaker 2: and said he had a chance and that he got
Speaker 2: through practice to a degree on Thursday, and by the
Speaker 2: time Saturday came he said, he was feeling great, and
Speaker 2: we still rotated him a lot of stuff, but we
Speaker 2: want to get the ball in his hands.
Speaker 4: What was your message to the team going into the
Speaker 4: bye week.
Speaker 2: That'll that'll probably be tomorrow, you know, going into the
Speaker 2: bye week will be Monday and Tuesday.
Speaker 1: I'll have a message for him, but I haven't thought
Speaker 1: of it yet. I'll beat the rest and come back
Speaker 1: ready to go.
Speaker 4: Just curious, he asked about the halftime speech. Did you
Speaker 4: overhear any of the leaders on the team in the
Speaker 4: locker room saying anything? Guys, it's a game. You guys
Speaker 4: know where you are record wise, any way to say.
Speaker 1: Anything or no. No, honestly, people never do. That's more
Speaker 1: for movies.
Speaker 2: We only have a few minutes in there, and guys
Speaker 2: break up and their stuff, and we've re review everything
Speaker 2: that's happened, everything that's going forward. And usually it's hectic
Speaker 2: and kind of a something show. And sometimes I call
Speaker 2: it guys up and quickly break it down. And sometimes
Speaker 2: I have to go to the bathroom when I tell
Speaker 2: Fred to call him up, and so I just say Fred,
Speaker 2: offenses up, you got it, let's go.
Speaker 1: And we just come out. So it's more scheme all right,
Speaker 1: Thanks guys,
