1 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:18,159 Speaker 1: Yil. What's going on? 2 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 2: Welcome to the Vikings postgame report with Pete Versage on 3 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 2: Paul Allen. This is powered by Luhman from lumen Field, 4 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 2: where the Minnesota Vikings were shut out for the first 5 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 2: time since two thousand and seven. Sam Donald and the 6 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,160 Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks beat them twenty six zero. Mister analyst, your. 7 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 3: Thoughts, Yeah, I mean a debut for Brozemer, hopefully he 8 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 3: learned a lot for interceptions. Is not obviously not the 9 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 3: way you want to start it, but just a bizarre 10 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,279 Speaker 3: type of a game. I mean, the defense, I think 11 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 3: is what's going to be overlooked at least people who 12 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,319 Speaker 3: like to look at box scores and zoom over it. 13 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 3: But you take a look at what they did with 14 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 3: Sam Donald told him to a sixty seven point five rating, 15 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 3: Jackson's and jigb two catches twenty three yards and they 16 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 3: did a wonderful job against the main weapons of this 17 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 3: Seattle offense. We just there was just no support. There 18 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 3: was just nothing else. Dallas Turner getting two sacks today, 19 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: one force fumble, what does that turn into? Well, ends 20 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 3: up turning into an interception for a touchdown for the 21 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks. So defensively, you did everything you possibly could 22 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 3: I believe in this game, minus a couple of mistackles, 23 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 3: just offensively. Down two linemen, you end up down three 24 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 3: by the end of the game. Right, Just not a 25 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 3: whole lot of momentum there at all. 26 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 2: Well, the as Pete said, the Minnesota Vikings defense, you know, 27 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 2: before Zach Sharbonet ran in from seventeen in the second half, 28 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: had done it played its best game of the season. 29 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: Quite honestly, it's your four and seven, you're on the road. 30 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: You got Eric Wilson. Well, Sam Darnold had been sacked 31 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 2: eleven times into the game, and that is the fewest 32 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: of anybody in the NFL. Dallas Turner got him twice, 33 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: Wilson got him. They sacked him four times, and Sam 34 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: clearly was flustered. But you know, Brosmer, the undrafted quarterback 35 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: from the University of Minnesota, kind of turned the momentum 36 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 2: single handedly in the first half when on a fourth 37 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 2: and short inside the ten, he's going to be sacked 38 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: by DeMarcus Lawrence, And as the analyst would say, instead 39 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 2: of making discretion the better part of valor, he made 40 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: valor the better part of discretion, and as he was 41 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 2: going down, he threw a sidearm pass intercepted by Ernest Jones. 42 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 2: The fourth he goes eighty five for the first touchdown 43 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: of his career. He eventually had another interception. He has 44 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,519 Speaker 2: five on the season. And you know, Brosemer definitely needed 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: the start, depending on what happens next game against Washington, 46 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: whether McCarthy's ready to play or not, so he needed 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 2: the effort. But still it was just a tough, tough, 48 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 2: tough road to hoe for Max Broseman. Yeah, it was. 49 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 3: I mean, it's baptism under fire, right, He's getting his 50 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 3: first start against the defense that's played eleven games already. 51 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: So yeah, in one of the better, one of the 52 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 3: better teams that getting at for the quarterback. You're down 53 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 3: a couple offensive line. I mean, you know, you can 54 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: go on and on and on and right, you know, 55 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: and I guess the frustrating part too, is is just 56 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 3: you know, some of the penalties keep, especially on special teams. Right, 57 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: you got all these little mistakes that have to be fixed. 58 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 3: We have a quarterback position has to be figured out. 59 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 3: But at the same time, these little mistakes that you're 60 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 3: making on special teams, those can come back to haunt you, 61 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 3: you know, and then now your focus gets bigger and 62 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 3: you're sitting there and you're like, okay, Justin Jefferson, you know, 63 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 3: not not a great day. Not a stellar day for 64 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 3: him either, And you know, or justin that two catches 65 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 3: for four yards, all right, I mean one of them 66 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: was for minus four uh, and just I mean not 67 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: it's not a great day overall. I mean earlier on 68 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: had you know, uh, Jordan Andison come down with that catch, 69 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 3: that Brozemer through the pass, that Brozeman through him and 70 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: off his fingertips, and maybe it's a different game. Maybe 71 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 3: it's a different you know, start for Brozemer. I thought 72 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 3: Rosmer looked fine. The game didn't look too big for him. 73 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 3: I thought he was reading things just a little bit 74 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 3: too quickly early, getting the ball out before receivers were 75 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 3: in their breaks. 76 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 77 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 3: So overall, I mean, I'm kind of I'm encouraged by 78 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: how Max looked. Right for an undrafted rookie free agent 79 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 3: to start his first game here in a place that 80 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 3: we know is very very tough to win. 81 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: Tenets. 82 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, against a top five defense, Paul, top five. We're 83 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 3: not talking about an average defense. We're talking about a 84 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 3: very very good defense. I can't be mad at the kid. 85 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 2: Let's hear from undoubtedly Sadden to Minnesota Vikings head coach 86 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell a. 87 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 4: Couple of injury updates here in a second. But you know, 88 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 4: just in no way, shape or form can we play 89 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 4: offensive football like that and try to and try to 90 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 4: win at a place like this. I did think our 91 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 4: defense played a played as well as they could considering 92 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 4: the amount of lift that they had to do today. 93 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 4: Forced the seven negatives in a takeaway, you know thought, 94 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 4: you know, we had some moments in the kicking game 95 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 4: field position wise, we just did not, you know, have 96 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 4: a type of an offensive performance that is ever going 97 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 4: to be acceptable, you know at the Minnesota Vikings organization, 98 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 4: and that obviously starts with me, and it's not about 99 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 4: any one particular player or position. It's a collective group 100 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 4: thing right now where we just are not good enough 101 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 4: and to overcome some of the things that we're doing, 102 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 4: overcoming some injuries upfront and overcoming some of the things 103 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 4: that are happening, we've got to find a way to 104 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: put the game plan together as simple as it needs 105 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 4: to be or as tight as it needs to be. 106 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 4: From a play count standpoint, just to get a little 107 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 4: bit better execution and get some of the things that 108 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 4: winning football looks like and try to play our part 109 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 4: offensively with the other two phases on our team. Ryan 110 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 4: Kelly had a hip flexer. He did not return to 111 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,239 Speaker 4: the game when he when he came out. Aaron Jones, 112 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 4: you know, aggravated his shoulder a little bit. 113 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: He's going to be evaluated. 114 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 4: Josh Mittelis and Jonathan Gunnard didn't finish the last drive. 115 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: But no, uh, no injury. Uh. 116 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 4: Those guys had been dealing with some things, but they 117 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 4: was not injury related. And George Jordan Mason, you saw 118 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 4: him go down there late later in the game. 119 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: He evaluate, was evaluated and returned. 120 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 4: So really Kelly and Jones would be the names that 121 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 4: will will be evaluating here. 122 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: Given why, I mean. 123 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 4: To the best as you can see today at least. 124 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: Why was the offense so forth? Well, I think early 125 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: on in the game. 126 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 4: You know, we had we had our struggles running the 127 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 4: football to try to stay efficient. We had some screens 128 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 4: and some kind of plays that kept us in manageable 129 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 4: d and ds, and and then you know some places 130 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 4: where I thought early on Max was you know, honestly, 131 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 4: maybe processing too quickly. There were some moments there where 132 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 4: he was getting back to some things where we had 133 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 4: some explosive chances for either Jordan on a backside and 134 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 4: cut catch and run, or even on some of the 135 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 4: third downs where you know, he just a little sped 136 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 4: up like a normal young player can be in his 137 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 4: first start, and and we just never could really make 138 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 4: that one or two or three in a row kind 139 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 4: of play. And then when we did move it, you know, 140 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 4: we weren't able to sustain it long enough to get 141 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 4: in the end zone. And then obviously the low red 142 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 4: zone play there on fourth down when totally flips on, 143 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 4: you know, getting it, getting the turnover we've been so 144 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 4: desperately waiting for and our defense does that, and then 145 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 4: that sequence ends with them getting seven points. 146 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: Is is losing football? Trying to get done there. 147 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was uh, you know, it was a little 148 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 4: it was a little over, you know, a little thought 149 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 4: we might have had a little bit better spot on 150 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 4: the third down play where Addison caught the ball and 151 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 4: ends up being a little bit one one plus whatever 152 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 4: it ended up being. We had struggled to run it 153 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 4: up until that point, you know, at the point attack 154 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 4: and things like that. So I wanted to try to 155 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 4: see if we can get Max out on the perimeter 156 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 4: with a you know, kind of a run pass option, 157 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 4: and they ended up kind of having a looping player 158 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 4: kind of in his face right away, and you know, 159 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 4: fourth down, he's trying to make a play and and 160 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 4: just ends up you know, being you know, obviously catastrophically 161 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 4: bad because you know, one of the reasons why you 162 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 4: go for that in that moment is even if you 163 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 4: don't get at the field, position is going to be 164 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 4: on your side with a defense playing really well. So 165 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 4: you know, got to call a better play there, got 166 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 4: to you know, decide the best option for us to 167 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 4: try to limit that ever being the outcome in that scenario, 168 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 4: but also give us a chance to score because we 169 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 4: knew we'd have to score some points to to win 170 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 4: the game and to try to capture the momentum off 171 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 4: that turnover with seven, what I thought was critical, you know, quick, 172 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 4: critical sequence to try to have a chance to win it. 173 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 5: In general with those third and fourth third and short 174 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 5: fourth and short type plays where you. 175 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: Guys do throw it as much as you do. 176 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, Ben, we've we we have run it. 177 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 4: We we we have run it as you know much 178 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 4: as we've you know, I know that's been a well 179 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 4: documented thing. But I just got to call a better 180 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 4: play there, and it's all going to be results based, 181 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 4: and that was about as bad a result as you can. 182 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: Have on that sequence. 183 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 4: And like I said, you know, early on in the game, 184 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 4: it was it was a struggle. I think, you know, 185 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 4: I think we were under ten yards, you know, close 186 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 4: to our first ten or so attempts and just kind 187 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 4: of trying to find that yard with a physical front, 188 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 4: and uh, you know, it felt like a chance to 189 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 4: maybe have an opportunity to try to get the quarterback 190 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 4: out on the edge, not drop back pass or anything 191 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 4: in that situation, or you know, see if we can 192 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 4: have multiple options besides just seeing. 193 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: If we can hammer it up in there. 194 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: Felt like it was the best option for us at 195 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 4: the time, but obviously it was not a good option. 196 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 5: Going back to the second half or last who does 197 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 5: it feel like the offense is pressing right now? 198 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 4: It just feels like between some of these throws and 199 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: potential throwing catches that we're just not getting, you know, 200 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 4: whether it's location, timing, rhythm, it does there's no question 201 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 4: we're pressing. Guys want to make those plays. Guys want to. 202 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: Make the throws. 203 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 4: You know, we've we've got to do a better job 204 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 4: early on in games, you know, where it's really not 205 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 4: there's no excuse to be made. We get a third 206 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 4: and manageable when we're moving it for third and three 207 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 4: or four whatever it was, and you know, gonna have 208 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 4: a chance for Oliver on a play we've early on 209 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 4: in the year. We we we had success with scored 210 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 4: on a very similar D and D a little tighter 211 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 4: down and against Cincinnati, but have the same coverage, same look, 212 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 4: same everything, and we we give up a you know, 213 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 4: an immediate sack there that for a young quarterback can 214 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 4: have an impact and maybe speed up, you know, the 215 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 4: next few sequences of drives and it all is connected. 216 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 4: But yeah, we're I know how hard and how hard 217 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 4: our guys are preparing and trying, and and uh, we 218 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 4: just can't quite seem to catch the rhythm of positive 219 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 4: plays with all eleven guys executing right now. And that's 220 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 4: guys maybe trying to do too much. Maybe we've got 221 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 4: to try to limit what we're what we're asking into 222 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 4: the group as a whole, especially with some different guys 223 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 4: stepping into the lineup, just to try to get some 224 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 4: more consistency at the very least, to try to give 225 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 4: ourselves a better chance. 226 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 3: Every role place is a hostile environment, but this was unique. 227 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you think that's kind of healthy and normity. 228 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 4: Of trying to Yeah, I mean he you know, pre snap, 229 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 4: he made a couple I can think back to, uh, 230 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 4: you know, there was a couple early down kind of 231 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 4: they were sending some sending some pressures which you kind 232 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 4: of come in here knowing between their defensive scheme and 233 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 4: and that Mike has which she does a great job 234 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 4: with it, but also a young quarterback that they're going 235 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 4: to try to activate some of those things. He got 236 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 4: the play, made the adjustment to the play, slid right 237 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 4: into the pressure and and just get sped up a 238 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 4: little bit. And Jordan's on kind of a a backside read, 239 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 4: which we knew would probably be the primary on that play, 240 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 4: and he just gets sped up and throws it just 241 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,719 Speaker 4: a hair early, going to the right place, doing all 242 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 4: the right things, just you know, could fall in in 243 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 4: alignment with a young guy that we wanted to allow 244 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 4: him to you know, function in our offense. 245 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: Because he showed the ability to. 246 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 4: But yeah, it's a tough ask obviously, And I thought 247 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 4: from a procedural standpoint, running the huddle and making some 248 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 4: of the calls that he did, and we tried to 249 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 4: take as much of that off his plate as possible. 250 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 4: I thought he was functioning at a high level. It really, 251 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 4: like I said, I mean, we'll go back and watch 252 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 4: it and spend the time with him going. 253 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: Through it, you know, on a deep dive. 254 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 4: But if anything, it was him playing quickly and processing. 255 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 4: I mean, he was getting back to his checkdowns. He 256 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 4: was getting to Aaron Jones on the backside of you know, 257 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 4: some progressions early on, just putting in playing and kind 258 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 4: of checking a lot of boxes where hopefully you can 259 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 4: get him settled in and then he starts kind of 260 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 4: finding that rhythm and timing to be you know, in 261 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 4: alignment with the concept called ineligibles, might be open. 262 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: To deal with that issue than the other the hops. 263 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 4: The end of that, you're always say, you know, I 264 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 4: you know, That's what I told him after the game 265 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 4: is this is great experience for him. It won't get 266 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 4: harder than going to Seattle for your first start against 267 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 4: that defense, and he's such a competitor and wants to 268 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 4: uh once to obviously come out here and lead this 269 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 4: team to a win. But I told him that's great 270 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 4: experience and unbelievable learning op knowing what it felt like, 271 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 4: knowing you know, how you were, you know seeing it, 272 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 4: and maybe you know even able to as you get 273 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 4: maybe more experience, which Max is going to play a 274 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 4: long time in this league, you'll start to be able 275 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 4: to the game will slow down a little bit, even 276 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 4: though he is what we believe. 277 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,119 Speaker 1: To be a fast processor. 278 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 3: Kevin, is it just coaching to get guys to slow 279 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 3: on the younger or is it a matter of the rest. 280 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's reps and it's it's 281 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 4: also you know, you think back on a couple of 282 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 4: those plays and they seem they seem very much long ago. 283 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 4: When you're when you see the score kind of get 284 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 4: to where it is and we don't end up scoring 285 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 4: on the day, you know, you you forget about those plays, 286 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 4: you know, early on in the first or second quarter 287 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 4: where you know you're all you're all Those plays matter 288 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 4: for a young quarterback of very much like seeing the 289 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 4: ball go through the net and and when you're going 290 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 4: to the right guy, and maybe it's just a click 291 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 4: early or you get moved off the spot with an 292 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 4: NFL kind of pocket, and all those things can have 293 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 4: an effect, just like the positive effect of you know, 294 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 4: those those plays being thrown and caught and maybe a 295 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 4: catch and run and we get our playmakers involved. And 296 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 4: and then I thought he made some nice plays too. 297 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 4: It's tj up the seam and making some nice checkdown 298 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 4: throws on some play actions where we're trying to be 299 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 4: a little bit more explosive today. And and uh, you know, 300 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 4: he he was. 301 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: You know, we were moving the ball. 302 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 4: At times without a very consistent run game. We got 303 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 4: to go in a little bit later on in the game, 304 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 4: but just it was a tough ask and and and 305 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 4: probably needed just a little bit more eleven, you know, 306 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 4: guys doing their job and playing with a little more 307 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 4: physicality up front early to try to set the tone 308 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 4: for how we wanted to play. And I thought, you know, 309 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 4: it took us a little bit too long to get 310 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 4: some of those functioning early down plays to just stay 311 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 4: efficient and try to you know, once again, I think 312 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 4: we had a few too many third and ten pluses 313 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 4: where whether it's a penalty or if it's a negative run. 314 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: Those are hard. Those are tough for us right now. 315 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 4: And you know, we're not going to just dive into 316 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 4: the world of you know, continuing to just throw the 317 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 4: ball over and over again. We're gonna try to see 318 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 4: if we can manage it with some ball out play 319 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 4: screen game or trying to stack some runs to get 320 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 4: back to manageable if we cansion he is as of 321 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 4: right now, but that's that's uh. You know, we'll see 322 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 4: how he does tomorrow. You know, our goal is to 323 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 4: he clears and he can have a good week of 324 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 4: practice and. 325 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: Have an opportunity to play next week. 326 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 4: And the last thing I'm at Adam feeling the business 327 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 4: was at a healthy scratch. Yeah, it was coaching kind of. 328 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: I just file it under a coach's decision. Looking at 329 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 4: where we're at at some other positions. 330 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: Around our roster. 331 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 4: You know, you're you're you're just trying to do what 332 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: you think is best to win and and make sure 333 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 4: you've got some depth that at some other spots where 334 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 4: guys we're dealing with some things, and that receiver positions 335 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 4: one that has you know, stayed pretty remarkably healthy this. 336 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 6: Year Christian Das to being able to go today. 337 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was. I think it was close. 338 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 4: You know, it was just a combination of the ankle, 339 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 4: some discomfort there, and then just kind of the we're 340 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 4: still you know, we're still in a world where you know, 341 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 4: his his knee is something that he's working through every week. 342 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 4: I think he's obviously such an important impactful player to 343 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 4: our to our offense that we're we're always going to 344 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 4: try to get him out there, and and c D 345 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 4: wants to be out there. 346 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: He just couldn't quite get there to play today. 347 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 4: And and you know, having Donovan out as well just 348 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 4: starts dipping into, you know, some things, Ryan Kelly eventually 349 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 4: going out, and we had some guys step in there, 350 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 4: and we'll take a look at it this week and 351 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 4: hopefully get him back and hopefully get the best five. 352 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: We can to go, you know, go back home and 353 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: try to win a game this week. 354 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 2: You know, I said it at the end of the 355 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 2: broadcast on KFAM is Sam is Brian Flores Defense. They 356 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 2: won myriad battles against Sam Darnold today, but overall everybody 357 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 2: lost the war because they lost the game twenty six 358 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 2: to zero. And you know, it's just it's like, you know, 359 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 2: I've seen this movie. I know how it's going to end. 360 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: If somebody wants to use that cliche where the Vikings 361 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: got destroyed in the time of possession because they couldn't 362 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 2: hold the ball long enough, like against Green Bay, like 363 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 2: against Chicago, like against Baltimore. Third down was bad. That 364 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 2: was a common thread during the three game losing streak, 365 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 2: now four game losing streak. But you know this, I 366 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 2: said on the nine to noon show on the Flagship. 367 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 2: During the course of the week, when you know you're 368 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 2: not going to be a playoff team with three major 369 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 2: holidays in front of you, Thanksgiving, Christmas, in New Year's Day, 370 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: these become human nature games and and what I mean 371 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 2: is the last thing people want to do is have 372 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 2: to rehab injuries in the offseason when you're not going 373 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. Well, from a Vikings defensive standpoint, I mean, 374 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 2: especially Dallas Turner, Blake Cashman, Eric Wilson, Andrew Van Ginkel, 375 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 2: Jonathan Grenard, those guys, Jalen Redmond, they played their tails 376 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 2: off for a long time too. It just they couldn't 377 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 2: get any offense going. 378 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 3: No, You're absolutely right, and you know Seattle gets their 379 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 3: eighth game in a row now with one hundred yards rushing. Wow, 380 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 3: which to your point though, Paul, it's that's that's not 381 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 3: the story. The story is that they that's all they 382 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 3: could do and they got you know, they had four 383 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 3: added possessions with the turnovers, so it was almost like 384 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 3: they're in a four minute offense from the middle of 385 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 3: the third quarter. So giving up one hundred yards in 386 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 3: the ground, yeah, it's it's good for the stat. 387 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 1: Box and everything. 388 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 3: But overall, I mean the Viking defense, like you said, 389 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 3: they just to have some pride. At some point pride 390 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 3: takes over right well, and and the thing is too 391 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 3: about the whole offseason an injury. You got to play 392 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 3: the game one hundred miles an hour. You get hurt 393 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 3: when you slow down, You get hurt when you start 394 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 3: taking plays off or you know, not not hustling to 395 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 3: the football. But man, am I encouraged by guys like 396 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 3: Eric Wilson because he playing and he's playing outside linebacker, 397 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 3: inside linebacker. The development of Dallas Turner. I think I 398 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 3: think Byron Murphy played very very well today. Isaiah Rodgers, 399 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 3: outside of some tackling mishaps, I thought he played, He 400 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 3: played well. So there's so many good things on that 401 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 3: side of the ball, right, you know, it's it's encouraging 402 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 3: and we're gonna need that if we're going to get 403 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 3: either J. J. McCarthy or Max Brosmer into the winner 404 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 3: circle by the end of the season. 405 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 2: All right, let's hear from the aforementioned Max Brosmer, who 406 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: had this to say following a twenty six zero loss 407 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 2: to Seattle. 408 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 5: Tough day to day, it was c NFL man, it's 409 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 5: it's it's tough. And you know, I thought, you know, 410 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 5: give give credits defense and got some great playmakers over there, 411 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 5: are great scheme. I thought that had a great plan 412 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 5: for us, and you know, we didn't make the plays 413 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 5: where we should have. And I thought our defense did 414 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 5: a good job of holding us in the game from 415 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 5: was already the game there, and you know, we didn't. 416 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 6: Capitalize the moments we should have. 417 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 5: And it' stuff to go and try and win games 418 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 5: and we can't keep the ball in our hands and 419 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 5: ultimately take credit for that, and we got to be better. 420 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 5: So questions actually take us through the big six. 421 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's tough. You know, it's I love play call. 422 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 5: I thought, you know, he put us in the best 423 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 5: situation to let our playmakers make plays and and ultimately. 424 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 6: The defense stiffled out. 425 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 5: They did a good job of getting me quick and 426 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 5: you know, ultimately the ten or twelve yards that you know, 427 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 5: they know it's fourth to one right and it's either 428 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 5: make a play or eat it, and they get you know, 429 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 5: the twelve yards that I give up on the run 430 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 5: back they have to get back on offense, right if 431 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 5: I threw the ball out and they'd start twelve yards 432 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 5: back from where the ball was. And ultimately I made 433 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 5: a bad decision with the football and it cost us 434 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 5: heavy and early the game like that, when you're giving 435 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 5: energy the other team like that, you know, it's tough 436 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 5: and we got to do a better job. You know, 437 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 5: we specifically have keeping the ball in our hands. 438 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 1: You're as you're rolling out there, what are your options in. 439 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 5: Theory in terms of typical typical boot play, you have 440 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 5: you know your flat, you're over, and you know your 441 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 5: high part, your high component of of you know your 442 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 5: boot play. And that's that's typical for most most of 443 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 5: your boots and naked and they did a good job Covernant, 444 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 5: and but again that's my responsibility to take her of 445 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 5: the football and not my responsibility to make trying to 446 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 5: make something happen when when it's not there, and you know, 447 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 5: I got to do better job keep the ball in 448 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 5: our hands and getting ready for the next drive. It's 449 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 5: just from a speed of the game perspect is like, 450 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 5: did you feel like you were going through your resil 451 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 5: on time too fat? 452 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: How did you feel? Yeah? 453 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 5: You know, I think, you know, I'll go back and 454 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 5: watch the film a little bit, and I feel like 455 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 5: I was maybe half a click fast to the reason. 456 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 5: You know, I feel like that's feeling the flow of 457 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 5: the game, feeling the fow of the pocket, feeling the 458 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 5: flow of of conceptually what's how in down the field? 459 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 6: And you know, I I. 460 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 5: Got to a couple couple of routes too quickly today 461 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 5: and we could have had some bigger hits on those completions. 462 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 5: But you know, throwing the ball, you know, half a 463 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 5: second too early sometimes and sometimes you can make those 464 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 5: throws if you anticipate well, and but there's there's a 465 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 5: very small gap where if you throw it too early, 466 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 5: it's not going to be you know's there's no chance 467 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 5: to complete it. But you know, that's a learning moment 468 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 5: from me and something that I'll continue to grow on 469 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 5: from there and use it as an experience for you know, 470 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 5: for the next time. 471 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 3: Six it looked like CJ is coming in front of 472 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 3: either is that just a play fake or. 473 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: Did you have an option out there? 474 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 6: No, no handoff. 475 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 5: No, it's it's a you know, typical you know, it's 476 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 5: called like power pass the NFL. 477 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 6: You're full slide and cut the end and go. 478 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 5: But again it's it's a tough It was a tough 479 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 5: play and you know it happens and you have to 480 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 5: eat it and move on from it. 481 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 6: But learn from most importantly is you know. 482 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 5: Next time that situation comes up is don't put the 483 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 5: ball in harm's way and just take what take what 484 00:22:58,359 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 5: they give you. 485 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 6: And in that moment, it was take the sack and 486 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 6: don't rak the ball. 487 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 4: A lot of your defensive teammates you're saying that they 488 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 4: despite the fact when you turned it over the first. 489 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 3: Time, you still kind of came back, and so that 490 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 3: resilience to do so in this environment against one of 491 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 3: the really good teams this year in the NFL. 492 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: What have they said to you briefly after this, but 493 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: how do you conducted. 494 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 6: Yourself in your first start. 495 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I just would credit the entire locker 496 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 5: room here. I think our locker room here is very 497 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 5: very special. And the ability to stay together after a 498 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 5: tough loss and tough plays, tough drives, it's really hard 499 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 5: to do in the NFL. It's hard to do in college, 500 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 5: but in the NFL, it's really hard to do. And 501 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 5: that's one of our team super powers. And I felt 502 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 5: their love, I felt their support. 503 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 6: And they don't have to do that, Like. 504 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 5: They could just let me be and move on with 505 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 5: their next drive or after the game for the next game. 506 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 6: But they don't do that. And our team doesn't do that. 507 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 5: And you feel a support here, and whether you play 508 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 5: with or had a tough day, you're gonna get the 509 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 5: same support and same love for the rest of the team. 510 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 2: When you're going through it, you feel like you're split 511 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:09,719 Speaker 2: up in the reads. 512 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 6: What's the key to kind of getting back and timing there? 513 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, it's it's difficult to make that adjustment. 514 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 5: Maybe maybe maybe it's a you know, a really focused 515 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 5: second half or focused second quarter maybe adjustment that. 516 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: You make through. 517 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 5: And I think, honestly it comes from experience, and I 518 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 5: think that, you know, I could have done a better 519 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 5: job maybe of you know, through the rest of the 520 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 5: game noticing that quicker maybe and trying to slow myself 521 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 5: down a little more. And you know, I I brought 522 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 5: myself on trying to get the ball out, you know 523 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 5: and tell me fashion, but sometimes when it's too fast, 524 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 5: the rest of the concept doesn't develop the way it's 525 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 5: supposed to. And schrammatically speaking, we had some great, great 526 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 5: concepts today that ended up opening up pretty well. And 527 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 5: whether it was a tick too fast getting there or 528 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 5: move the spot to try to get there quicker, like 529 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 5: it's it's something you have to learn and go through. 530 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 5: And you know, I've definitely used today as an experience 531 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 5: to you know and learning moment to get better from there. 532 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 5: And I'll be able to look back on some of 533 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 5: the plays today and be like, I know I was 534 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 5: too fast here, and I'll slow myself down. Maybe I 535 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 5: have to click slower next time to get that completion 536 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 5: in terms. 537 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: Of quarterbacks easier than to learn how to slow down 538 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: then have to speed that up progression wise. 539 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I would argue that I think, you know, 540 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 5: I think it just depends on you know, how you're 541 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 5: how you're processing through the through the reads. I think 542 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 5: when you have some really talented playmakers here with Justin 543 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 5: and Jay and Jalen, who are who seem like the 544 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 5: fastest guys in the entire world, you feel sped up. 545 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 5: Maybe I have to get this ball out fast these 546 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 5: guys because they're going to make the play. And in reality, 547 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 5: you can, you know, you can take a breath for 548 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 5: a second because they're they're going to get to the 549 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 5: right spot at the right time and trusting that they 550 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 5: know the timing just as well as you do. And 551 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 5: you know, again, that's something that I'll learn from from 552 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 5: this moment and and some of these plays today and 553 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 5: go I'll go watch the film. 554 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 6: These guys that watch the film, and we'll get better 555 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 6: from today. 556 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: Max. What was your communication like with Kevin throughout the team. 557 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's one thing that I think that he does 558 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 5: a really good job of. And whether it's a again 559 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 5: a tough day or a really really solid day for 560 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 5: the offense and the team in general, he's the same 561 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 5: guy the entire game, and you know, maybe it's you know, 562 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 5: he he comes after a tough play that I had 563 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 5: and like coaches me up right away, which I'd like 564 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 5: I'm all eagers too, because I just want to get better. 565 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 6: And you know, him giving. 566 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 5: Those coaching coaching lessons and those those points of emphasis 567 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 5: throughout the game are really important. And you know, and 568 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 5: the Mike, he's the same guy with the same intonation 569 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 5: of the same you know, vocal tone the rest of 570 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 5: the whole game, which is really great for a quarterback 571 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 5: to keep everybody even Keel, Is there anything. 572 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: You said today or a little bent you had with 573 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: him that's gonna stick with you? 574 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, I think you know we've we had a 575 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 5: good conversation at the game, and that's something that you'll 576 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 5: keep between us. 577 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 6: And again you talk. 578 00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 5: We talk about how this team stays together, and that 579 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 5: doesn't happen unless it's top down and from from Quasi, 580 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 5: from Ko, the rest of the team. That's that's an 581 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 5: emphasis from the top down. And I felt that talking 582 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,120 Speaker 5: with him after the game, and there's I'm always open 583 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 5: to getting coach. I want hard coaching, and he does 584 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 5: that well. But he also loves up on you and 585 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 5: supports you when you need it. And there's a good 586 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 5: balance to both. And he's a really good example of 587 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 5: what that looks like of tough coaching and support, and 588 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 5: I really appreciate that from him, and you know what 589 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 5: he's done for the team from that. 590 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 2: From that regard, well, Brozmer played today because JJ McCarthy 591 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 2: had a concussion off the Green Bay game. No idea 592 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 2: who the next quarterback will be. The Vikings come home 593 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 2: next week to play Washington as a four in eight operation. 594 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 2: Your thoughts into. 595 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 3: That, Well, yeah, Washington, I think ye, They're all about 596 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 3: what they're going to do a quarterback, and I believe 597 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 3: there's will be healthy. It might be back, of course, 598 00:27:54,800 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 3: we'll see. Uh yeah. Perfect timing is everything in this league. Again, 599 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,479 Speaker 3: with the way this defense is playing, I think we'll 600 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 3: we'll have a shot. We'll be in the game. We 601 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 3: just can't again keep turning the football over. But for Brozemer, 602 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: like I said before, I think this is he looked okay. 603 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 3: I mean yeah, he made a lot of mistakes, but 604 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 3: the day the game didn't look too big for him, right, 605 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 3: He didn't look like he was outclassed, like he didn't 606 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 3: belong in that regard. So for an undrafted free agent 607 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 3: number four on the depth chart going into training camp 608 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 3: to come out and start a game and do what 609 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 3: he did I mean that's you know, hat tip to him.
