We have a lot 175 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: of things that we didn't do right. 176 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 3: Definitely in the first half, I s I I just 177 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: a onways talk about me as a person. I just 178 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 3: a lot of things that I can continue to need 179 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 3: to improve on. We just heard a a a lesson 180 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 3: to today. When things are going good, you look out 181 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 3: the window and you say, look at it. 182 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: Look how everybody's. 183 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 3: Working together and making things happen. When things aren't going good, 184 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 3: turn that mirror, turn that window to a mirror, and 185 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 3: look at yourself. So as a defense, we we just 186 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 3: look at ourselves. How how can we continue to grow? 187 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 3: How can we continue to be the best defense, the 188 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 3: best version of ourselves? 189 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 2: Every game? 190 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 4: I heard you mention bad record, not a bad team exactly. 191 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 2: What are the things you've seen that make you feel 192 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 2: like we got a good team? 193 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: You know what do you highlight? Most definitely, we've done 194 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 3: a lot of great things on defense. We continue to 195 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 3: have great success. There's been a lot of teams who 196 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 3: score a high number of points that we're consistently stopping 197 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 3: them from their yearly average or whatever case is. A 198 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 3: lot of great teams come our way, and besides maybe 199 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 3: like two games they leave with their seasons low. You know, 200 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 3: we're doing a lot of good things on offense. The 201 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 3: whole line is moving us out the way, there's whole 202 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 3: being created. Ormandre is doing up in types of job. 203 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of connections. Just there's little 204 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 3: glimpse and glimpses of positive plays that you see throughout 205 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 3: the game on both sides of the ball, even on 206 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 3: spec teams. So there's a lot of things that we're 207 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 3: doing well. We just need to continue to do those 208 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 3: well and things. 209 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 2: That were not doing well. I thinks that were hurting 210 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 2: ourselves on just correct that. Thank you for taking me 211 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 2: to No problem. 212 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: How much will you missed the media during the bye week, 213 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: No problem, Appreciate it.
