• 0:00
  Speaker 1: How are we doing.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: House kind of lose this team right now, obviously three
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: and it's tough, you know, division game, first division game.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Just didn't execute.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think that's kind of the mindset right
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: now is you know, obviously tough loss.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: You want to win games.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: But again, we just didn't play well enough in the
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: critical moments and the critical you know, the critical things, turnovers, penalties,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: all that stuff to win the game. Week about the
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: concept of struggling, Well, yeah, do you feel like you
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: guys are doing that? And where's the signs you've seen
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: in the last couple of weeks that you guys can
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: put yourselves out of Yeah, you know, it's early obviously,
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: and we'll see how we attack this week. You know,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: it's been a beast of a three games, you know,
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: in eleven days, and uh, I think everyone's approach coming
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: after last game was just to go to work.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: That's what's gonna take.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: We're still figuring each other out, figuring out what each
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: other does well.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Well, people might not do well. And we just got
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: play cohesive ball.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, defense starts with me not getting turnovers. We
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: have to get the ball, we have to protect the ball.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Going minus three, against seem like this, you just put
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: yourself in.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: A giant hole.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: And so I think the mindset is still like just
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: attack this thing. It's early, we're still meshing, we're still going.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of games left.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Uh, we've got to catch our strike was issue, Yeah,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: you know, great scheme, great route versus what the scheme
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: we were in. He got kind of broke for you
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: a little bit, and then I took a poor angle,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: poor angle going for the ball. He came back to
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: it pretty well. Great play, great play by him, and
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I just gotta get him on the ground, so that
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: one's on me, you know, And now ill with this
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: team a few more players in that situation, when you're
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: coming over that way, that's fast a position.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: It's a beast. I mean, that's my job though.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: It's the balance between going for the ball going for
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: the tackle. I was breaking like it was a good
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: thrown ball, but it was underthrown and so it kind
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: of I rounded my break and Deepo was able to
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: get in front of me and.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Just I didn't have the right angle. Tough, but that's
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you know, that's my job. How'd you hold up to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: this one, Juliana, I know it was game time call.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: For you maybe through fine. You know, a lot of
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: kudos to the training staff. We kind of grinded every
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: minute of this week. I mean, the three games in
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: this amount of days. It's tough on the body, and
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: you know, Strict and crew just went to bat for
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: me and just we just worked every day, just try
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: to just get ready for this game.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: And we're continue to work.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: She says that with the entire team.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the beast. I mean, it's it's just a beast.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: It's it's tough for sure, but I know some guys,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: you know, to take care of their bodies right now.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: We're a little banged up obviously.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Some guys went down again today and we've had to
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: get some more reinforcements back and just really attack this thing.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: We got to take advantage of.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: This and just go into Atlanta and do we know how.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: To do their last long run?
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: But where they put it put it away there, I
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: guess I think that's just kind of the I don't
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: know that's the overall gist of kind of what we
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: have going on defense. You know, you can't have a
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: ten people communicating and doing the same thing and at
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: one off it's been killing us, and so I take
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: that on me. I gotta communicate better to the people
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: who be in the right spot so they can just
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: do their jobs. And so I had to take a
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: bigger step just in communication and leadership to just try
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: gut to try to get guys going in the right way.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Guys want to play fast, Guys want to make plays,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: and that I think last play, I mean, we had
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: a chance, We had a chance there and just you know,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: a little bit miscommunication and misfits. I'm not sure you know,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: new to the team last year, new to the division
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: last year. I think it's just playing clean ball. You're
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: not gonna beat him going minus three and then turnover
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: battle and I don't know what the penalty numbers were,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: but it couldn't have been good for us.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: That's what it takes. I mean, I think we know
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the people, we know how to execute.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: You saw a lot of great plays out there, but
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: it's just too many, too much, too much one offs,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: too many one offs, and so.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: That's what it takes to be a too much things.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: And we had them there.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: I mean fourth quarter, we were we were rolling offense.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Labiska sprung that kick. I mean the energy was right there.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: The energy was good, but just situation football, turnovers, penalties
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: and just being you know smart.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Speaking of the.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Turnovers, you guys haven't been able to force years.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Out of the ball your last few weeks.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: How tough is that for you guys as you're looking
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: at the negative, negative side of the.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Battle here each tweet.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough. We got to get more turnovers. I
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: have to get more turnovers for this defense. And I
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: think that's just it. We will work it obviously in practice.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: And then the ball will come to life and once
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: it does, they come in bunches, and so it's a
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: it's a positive mindset.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: It's an attacking mindset, and I think guys were attacking
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: that ball today and just we've got to come up
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: with its about this think that you guys have been
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: coming up flap at the last two games.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: You guys have given up long drives and both havels.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Can you put a finger on what you're seeing.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: In that regard?
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I can't. Off the top of my head.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: I think of our get back on track numbers, I
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: think we've been solid on first down, second down, Just
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: do some leaky stuff and give them a third and manageable,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: and it goes into when we're in man, just I'm
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: sending your leverage when you're one on one, and then
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: zone just understanding where you're spacing is understanding that these
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: guys want to tack the middle of the field. And
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: then there's a lot of checkdowns that were leaky today
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: and so I think that kind of goes into I
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: don't know, that's how we need to play defense.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: These drives get.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Strung out together because we just aren't disciplined enough consistently.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: But again, we have the players, we have the scheme,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: we have the right mindset, and it's just cleaning up.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: We have to attack this week. It's a long season
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: ahead of.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Us right now. Confidence you guys can come back strong
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: from I feel real confident. I gotta do more.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I think that's as simple as it can be. I
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: need to just be more vocal, be more acountable for myself,
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: for others, and I think everyone and all the leaders
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: for sure have that approach.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: That's what it takes. It's a long season and we're
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: messing right now.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: We're three and three on one division lotting games in
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: front of us, and so we had to finish this
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: second quarter.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Of the kind of the season in a strong way. Julian.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Issues that you're talking about on defense, do you feel
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: like those are a product of a new scheme, new
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: players trying to mess together all that versus just simple
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: fundamental errors. Yeah, you know, I don't want to excuse
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: it to being to new scheme and all that stuff.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I think it's just fundamental stuff.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: We have to just put a you know, just keep
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: it black and white in the meeting room and address
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: what needs to be addressed in terms of simple stuff.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: And that's the good part, that's the promising part, is
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: that it's just it's bread and butter things that we're
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: not executing on Mike's really dialing it up or trying
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: to dial it up, and we just had to find
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: a way to mess and catch our flow. And so
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: we're still kind of catching that stride and trying to
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: figure it out.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you guess,
