WEBVTT - Foerster Talking Moving On from Week 7 Loss | Press Pass

0:00:00.000 --> 0:00:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Lot of people thought he would struggle, and I don't

0:00:03.440 --> 0:00:05.320
<v Speaker 1>know how you felt, but it seemed like he stood

0:00:05.400 --> 0:00:07.080
<v Speaker 1>up pretty strongly. What was your.

0:00:06.960 --> 0:00:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Evaluation, Jaalen had a really good game. Yeah, Jalen and

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Aaron both played very well in the game. On on

0:00:12.039 --> 0:00:15.120
<v Speaker 2>Monday night, Jalen was, Yeah, you know, we talked about

0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:17.919
<v Speaker 2>last week. I said, you know, he'd improved, and I

0:00:17.920 --> 0:00:19.640
<v Speaker 2>think I said, but you still got to go out

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:21.640
<v Speaker 2>and do it. And and he did. He went out

0:00:21.640 --> 0:00:23.640
<v Speaker 2>and had a nice game and even flip ninety nine

0:00:23.680 --> 0:00:25.079
<v Speaker 2>over there a couple of times, and he held his

0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:26.560
<v Speaker 2>own over there and did a nice job. I was

0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 2>happy with Jalen's play, and it's happy for Jalen. You know,

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 2>he's always been in that role where Trent's been down

0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 2>a game or two and he's had to play and

0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:35.080
<v Speaker 2>and some some games better than others. It was good

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:36.239
<v Speaker 2>for there.

0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 1>Is there a common theme that you guys need to

0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:40.400
<v Speaker 1>do to kind of spring that running game going again?

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.320
<v Speaker 2>Uh, you know, it's a little bit of everything, you know,

0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:47.960
<v Speaker 2>it's uh, you know, Kyle talked about the Cleveland game

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 2>just how we were. Everything was long yardage, you know,

0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:52.080
<v Speaker 2>every single time, whether it was a run, whether it

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 2>was a screen pass, whether it was a penalty, you

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>just end up behind eight ball and you can't ever generate.

0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:58.080
<v Speaker 2>You can't ever get in that rhythm of you know,

0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:00.520
<v Speaker 2>run first down, run run first down, you know, just

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.920
<v Speaker 2>that rhythm of a of a long sustained driver. Were

0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:04.840
<v Speaker 2>able to keep getting runs and pop one, and then

0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 2>we just haven't had the big, the big breakout run recently.

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 2>And then we just haven't been able to sustain as much.

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 2>You know, we moved the ball, we punted one time,

0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:16.200
<v Speaker 2>we turned it over. But turnovers, penalties, negative plays, they

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:18.960
<v Speaker 2>all stop you from really establishing a run game. I

0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:21.559
<v Speaker 2>don't think it's anything more than that. You just can't

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:24.440
<v Speaker 2>get into a rhythm of this call. This call leads

0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:26.199
<v Speaker 2>to that call that sets up off of this play.

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:28.679
<v Speaker 2>And uh, and give the defensive credit. You know, Minnesota

0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:30.440
<v Speaker 2>and Cleveland did a really nice job and uh, and

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.440
<v Speaker 2>we didn't execute as well as we could have. Christian

0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:34.800
<v Speaker 2>in particular, he's so dominant the first four games of

0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 2>the season, the last three started with Dallas. His yards

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:38.000
<v Speaker 2>per carry has been down.

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:41.479
<v Speaker 2>What are you seeing with Christian in particular? No, it's

0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:43.679
<v Speaker 2>I think it's along the lines of what we're talking about.

0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:46.840
<v Speaker 2>I do think that, uh, if teams do come over

0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 2>with the mindset that they're not gonna let him go,

0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're gonna do whatever they can to shoot

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 2>the first player Dallas game and try to rip his

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 2>head off. You know, there's that, there's that feeling of

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>we're not gonna let this guy run. Secondly, is we're

0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 2>just haven't established we haven't given him the lanes that

0:01:58.280 --> 0:01:59.760
<v Speaker 2>he needs. We haven't give him the space he needs

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 2>space that we did in the first couple of games,

0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:03.720
<v Speaker 2>and that the last couple of games, it just hasn't

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 2>been there. And you create that space by blocking them better.

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 2>You create that space by having more throws. That opens

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.680
<v Speaker 2>up the running game a little bit more, which allows

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:14.200
<v Speaker 2>him and then and then he's also able to I mean,

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:16.280
<v Speaker 2>you open up the Cleveland game making about four guys

0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:18.240
<v Speaker 2>missed and having a nice thirty four whatever the run was,

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:19.960
<v Speaker 2>and they attacked the fifteen on at the end of that.

0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:23.120
<v Speaker 2>But again, it just wasn't there consistently throughout the day

0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:24.960
<v Speaker 2>for all the reasons I stated a little bit earlier.

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:28.400
<v Speaker 2>But it's not anything they're doing, it's not anything he's doing.

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.839
<v Speaker 2>It's it's we're just not as productive these last couple

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:32.720
<v Speaker 2>of games, and that's in all areas.

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.399
<v Speaker 3>A lot of speculation outside the building that after Brock

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 3>did the sneak, maybe that's where he used to stand

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 3>the concussion about how his play might have changed after

0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 3>that after watching the film. What is your opinion?

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:48.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I can't. No, I don't know anything about I

0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:52.679
<v Speaker 2>don't I can't speak to when it happened, how I

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 2>don't know anything about that. I really don't, and I'm

0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 2>not in that meeting with the medical staff and then

0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:59.200
<v Speaker 2>all the things like that, So it's hard for me

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:00.359
<v Speaker 2>to say that, I'm.

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:05.240
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, really dominate in that push push, whatever you want

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:08.880
<v Speaker 1>to call it, quarterback sneak. Everybody's loaded up. You can

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 1>substitute freely in the NFL, have you guys discussed the

0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 1>possibility of putting, you know, your best personnel power wise,

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:19.400
<v Speaker 1>maybe a Feliciano, maybe a huge check, Maybe you take

0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:21.880
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback off the field and all the different things

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:25.639
<v Speaker 1>that you potentially could do in a quarterback sneak scenario

0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:28.680
<v Speaker 1>to give yourself the best chance for success.

0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Our our sneak rate has been has been productive.

0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:33.800
<v Speaker 2>We had the one sneak where we we jumped the

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:35.120
<v Speaker 2>ball and tried to run it. That's the one we're

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 2>talking about where we didn't get it, and I think

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:38.520
<v Speaker 2>he took the hit I think on that play, I'm

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 2>not sure, though, I think that was it. And then

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:43.440
<v Speaker 2>and then we ran another sneak the very next play.

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.640
<v Speaker 2>It was more advantageous. We've been all about running advantageous

0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:49.840
<v Speaker 2>sneaks and not just saying hey, here we come, we're

0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.119
<v Speaker 2>running sneak with Jimmy. We could do that a little

0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 2>bit more. I think each quarterback is different. Through all

0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:56.880
<v Speaker 2>my years of coaching, there's you know, I always prefer

0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:58.480
<v Speaker 2>to Peyton, but Peyton was not a sneak guy, where

0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:01.160
<v Speaker 2>Steve McNair was a better sneak guy, or Trent Dilfort

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:03.280
<v Speaker 2>was a good sneak guy, whereas some other guys you know, weren't.

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 2>So there's always that thing of some guys are better

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:07.480
<v Speaker 2>at it than others. I think, no matter how you

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 2>did it with the guy from Philly, they'd be good

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:11.480
<v Speaker 2>at it. There is that play right now, that's that's

0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:14.360
<v Speaker 2>going around that everybody's been been working on and doing,

0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:17.360
<v Speaker 2>some with success, some that haven't had as good as success,

0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:18.920
<v Speaker 2>and so I just think it comes back to your

0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:20.799
<v Speaker 2>guy and what your philosophy is on third and one.

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:23.120
<v Speaker 2>It's been a pretty productive third and one year four

0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:24.720
<v Speaker 2>us up to this point, and knock on wood, we

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 2>got to keep it going. We had a missed last

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.880
<v Speaker 2>week on that play, but we were able to get

0:04:28.880 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 2>it on the fourth and one. So with a sneak again.

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.440
<v Speaker 2>So we're a little bit more about not so much

0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:35.840
<v Speaker 2>saying hey, here we are, we're running sneak. Everything in

0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>our offense is about you do this, it builds and

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:41.120
<v Speaker 2>then we can have this and we do you know,

0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:43.279
<v Speaker 2>we take advantage of what you do and kind of

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 2>build things off each other.

0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 3>Mcavy's three film malls. It's not normally something that he does.

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:50.320
<v Speaker 3>It's is it kind of a fluky thing or is

0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 3>it something in particular fun?

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:53.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I would say that the only one there was

0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:56.719
<v Speaker 2>one that I would say was probably he wasn't probably

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 2>one down, and he was pretty good with the one

0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:01.919
<v Speaker 2>in Dallas, but it was just taking the guy on

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 2>head on where the ball was he was trying to

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 2>secure it. He's excellent with ball security and sometimes it

0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 2>just happens they hit the ball just right. Obviously, they're

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.600
<v Speaker 2>they're coming after him trying to get it out, and

0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 2>he really this one was fighting for extra yards. He's

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 2>going down. It's hard to see that he wasn't securing

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.320
<v Speaker 2>the football properly. He just got hit just right this

0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 2>past week, and I would say that was kind of

0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:22.040
<v Speaker 2>the same way in the Dallas game.

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.240
<v Speaker 1>How much since he's lying. I mean, readers all load

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:29.480
<v Speaker 1>and the ends are both real active compared to other

0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 1>teams you guys have played, do they play a lot

0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:35.479
<v Speaker 1>of games up front? What stands out when you watch

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:36.160
<v Speaker 1>the film.

0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 2>On the Bengals Bengals defense from the pass rush standpoint

0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:40.880
<v Speaker 2>is the two ends with great effort. I mean, ninety

0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:42.599
<v Speaker 2>one is a great effort. He's a great bull rusher.

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.479
<v Speaker 2>He's a great edge rusher. He plays without standing energy

0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:46.960
<v Speaker 2>and effort. He's got great get off the ball, which

0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:48.960
<v Speaker 2>is a pretty consistent theme of all good rushers. They

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 2>get off on the snap. Whether you see him at

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:52.599
<v Speaker 2>their home stadium where they're having the advantage of the

0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 2>team in silent count, or whether they're at your place.

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.119
<v Speaker 2>They just have great get off. They study the film.

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Miles Garrett was a guy great get off, That's part

0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.320
<v Speaker 2>of his game. Where he's a half a step ahead

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:02.920
<v Speaker 2>of you before you even can can get out of

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 2>your stands. Both those guys and then the guy Hubard

0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:06.840
<v Speaker 2>on the other side, he gave us fits when we

0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 2>played there a couple of years ago with Compton. He

0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:10.560
<v Speaker 2>he got after us really good. We had to we

0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 2>had to help over there and do some things to

0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:14.039
<v Speaker 2>stay in that game at the end. And uh And

0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 2>both those guys inside players are good, solid rushers. They

0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 2>have a very very solid, good rush plan, whether it

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.039
<v Speaker 2>be there they're different double A gaps, their fronts that

0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>they get and things like that on third down games pressures.

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 2>It's very well thought out, very well coached. Uh. So

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.240
<v Speaker 2>you not only have good players doing it, you've got

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:32.400
<v Speaker 2>a really good scheme to go with it.

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 3>Sounds like this route locker room had a lot of

0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:36.920
<v Speaker 3>took a lot of responsibility for the loss. I mean

0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:40.600
<v Speaker 3>each player said took responsibly for their own particular mistakes.

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 3>Is that special about this locker room, even more so

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:44.559
<v Speaker 3>than what you experienced the mass?

0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm just these guys are all we all. I

0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:50.400
<v Speaker 2>think the thing about it is starts with our head coach,

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:53.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, Kyle is about it's football and so instead

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:55.360
<v Speaker 2>of that, it's never a woe was me. It's never

0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:57.400
<v Speaker 2>it's it's about coaching football. And you're gonna look at

0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 2>the You're gonna look at the game. You're gonna say, hey, coverages,

0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:02.599
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna look at blocking schemes, you're gonna look at production,

0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.239
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna look at reads, You're gonna look at everything.

0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:06.720
<v Speaker 2>You say. You're gonna coach football. And I think the

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:08.320
<v Speaker 2>players are that way as well. You're gonna say, hey,

0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 2>we're you know, I didn't do as I was coached

0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:12.640
<v Speaker 2>to do. You know Colt mckibbitt's would say to me,

0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:14.320
<v Speaker 2>He goes, yeah, I said, what happened? He goes, Well,

0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 2>if I'd just done what I was supposed to do,

0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:17.800
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't have had the problem. But I didn't. I

0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:19.240
<v Speaker 2>did X, Y or Z, and I didn't pick them

0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 2>up and and and they're very accountable that way that

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:23.800
<v Speaker 2>we all work together, and it's not like, well do

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:26.360
<v Speaker 2>what I tell you or that's it's everybody knows exactly

0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:28.160
<v Speaker 2>what we're supposed to do. There's a good understanding of

0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 2>our offense, our defense, our special teams, and so when

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't work, it's never about he said. She said,

0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 2>it's very definable. It's very football driven, it's very schematic driven,

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:39.600
<v Speaker 2>and say, this is what it is. It's never about effort.

0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:42.360
<v Speaker 2>Our guys are. They play their tails off every single week.

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 2>It's it's gonna be about the execution of the fundamentals

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.840
<v Speaker 2>or not recognizing something that you know, we worked on

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.120
<v Speaker 2>consistently through the week, or maybe we didn't give enough

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:51.440
<v Speaker 2>reps and it's our fault that we need to give

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.080
<v Speaker 2>them more reps at it so they can see it.

0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:56.120
<v Speaker 2>But they'll always take the accountabiliy. And you know, I

0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 2>can think of a number of plays from the last

0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.520
<v Speaker 2>game where it's just you're like, we should have done

0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:02.600
<v Speaker 2>this and we didn't, and uh, why we didn't do

0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 2>it packed reps, We just didn't see it, we hadn't

0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 2>done it enough, whatever it was, I can't tell you.

0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:11.240
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of feeling. There's a lot of uh,

0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:15.680
<v Speaker 1>not a lot of feelings in football. Coaches are direct

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 1>with players. Coaches are direct with coaches. Kyle came out

0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.760
<v Speaker 1>and said that Steve messed up a call on the podium.

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:27.800
<v Speaker 1>How does that sit with coaches when when a coach acts,

0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:31.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, criticizes you publicly and kind of directly. Is

0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:34.360
<v Speaker 1>that just part of the territory. Is that something easy

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:35.440
<v Speaker 1>to deal with hard to deal with?

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 2>It is for me, I mean, I'm it's easy to me.

0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:41.200
<v Speaker 2>It's it's it is what it is. The hardest thing

0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:43.840
<v Speaker 2>is is you can't you say, well, nobody really understands

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:45.559
<v Speaker 2>when you say that, because I don't know. It's hard

0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.719
<v Speaker 2>to explain to people that aren't inside working it every

0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 2>single day. It's it's a it's a very you know,

0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 2>it's a lot that goes into it. But in the

0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 2>same sense, you can't hide and say, well, there's nothing

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:55.000
<v Speaker 2>wrong and and so you just admit it and you

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:56.320
<v Speaker 2>live with it, and you understand that the court of

0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:57.959
<v Speaker 2>public opinion is going to be what it's going to be,

0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 2>and some will understanding that you have a good understand

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 2>of what you're talking about. Others won't. And that comes

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:04.320
<v Speaker 2>with the territory. With the job. You know, the more

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.880
<v Speaker 2>people sit out here, the more people fill those stadiums,

0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:09.800
<v Speaker 2>the more people internet, all the things that go on

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 2>with it. I know that one thing's happened through the

0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:14.560
<v Speaker 2>course of that time is salaries have gone up. And

0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 2>with that salary comes you have to take the heat

0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:19.840
<v Speaker 2>for the job that you do, and you have to

0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:21.559
<v Speaker 2>stand and be accountable for the things that you do

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 2>because there is more people, There are more people interested,

0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:27.199
<v Speaker 2>There are more people that are analyzing you on television

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.760
<v Speaker 2>and radio and everywhere else. And it comes with the territory. Man,

0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:32.200
<v Speaker 2>It's what it is, and you have to understand it.

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 2>You know, you control what you control, and what you

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 2>do control is the job that you do and whether

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 2>somebody appreciates the job you do or doesn't. And when

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:39.480
<v Speaker 2>the head coach, if he wants to stand up and

0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:41.600
<v Speaker 2>say the offensive line didn't play well enough, he's the

0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:44.360
<v Speaker 2>head coach. He's in charge, and that's does it bother me?

0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.719
<v Speaker 2>You didn't play well enough? So that opens up to

0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:49.160
<v Speaker 2>you guys that then look at it and evaluate the

0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 2>film and say, God, they did stink that game. We

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:53.400
<v Speaker 2>did or we didn't. You know, however, it is and

0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:55.320
<v Speaker 2>that's a fact, and you just got to live with them.

0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:56.439
<v Speaker 2>The guys got to live with them. You got to

0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:58.199
<v Speaker 2>come back and play again. I like it, you can

0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.960
<v Speaker 2>tell when I talk to you, guys. I like everybody

0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:02.679
<v Speaker 2>gets to learn in football. Everybody's to know football. It's

0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.400
<v Speaker 2>a cool game. It's a cool sport. It's a great

0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:07.080
<v Speaker 2>team sport. It's so it's so hard, eleven guys working

0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:08.600
<v Speaker 2>together to get this thing to go, and it's it's

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 2>really cool. And when it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:12.480
<v Speaker 2>And a lot of times you gotta take the heat

0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:14.040
<v Speaker 2>for it, and the players have to take the heat

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.640
<v Speaker 2>for it. That's that comes with the territory, man. But

0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.679
<v Speaker 2>but it's it's still the it's still the greatest thing

0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 2>to step out there. I tell those players, you know,

0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:22.040
<v Speaker 2>I get to be as close as I can be

0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:23.720
<v Speaker 2>to and I love about you. Guys got the greatest

0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:25.480
<v Speaker 2>thing of all. They can step across that wind line.

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 2>They can compete every single Sunday, and it's a it's

0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:32.079
<v Speaker 2>it's it's amazing how the level of competition, the level

0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 2>of talent, how how hard it is and how hard

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.640
<v Speaker 2>is everybody's got to be on point. And if you're

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.320
<v Speaker 2>off just a little bit, just a little bit, all

0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:41.840
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, you're down fourteen nothing, or you've got

0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:43.880
<v Speaker 2>three tackles for loss, or you've given up two sacks,

0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.080
<v Speaker 2>and it's it's the margin of error is so small

0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.560
<v Speaker 2>and and it demands that and that's why when somebody

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 2>says he you didn't do enough job. Yeah, we didn't,

0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 2>because you have to be on point and that's why

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 2>you just accept In my opinion, you accept it and

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:58.400
<v Speaker 2>you and you roll with it. So thanks guys,
