• 0:26
  Speaker 1: so far? I think it's been a good camp. I
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: think it's been productive. I think we've had, you know,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: some good days, some hard days. Um, but I think,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: you know, across the board in the QB room, I
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: think we've we've minimized our mistakes. I think we've you know,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: pushed the ball downfield. We've been aggressive and we had
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: to and and tried to fit in some windows. But
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I just think overall, we've been running the offense well uh,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: you know, like I said, not a lot of mistakes.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: So I think we just gotta keep that rolling. D
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: you were here last year's training camp, or Trevor y
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: t J. Just have you really seen that group. 'm
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: kind of growing the Bellbom the last year. Yeah, man,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: I love this quarterback room. You know, Trevi and DJ
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: or my guys. Um, you know, when I left, I
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: missed them. I mean, it's just a cool room to
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: be around. Um. You know, we're we're really good friends.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So I mean that helps. You know, we're all rooting
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: for each other. We're all pushing each other to be
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: the best we can be. But at the end of
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: the day, we're buddies. And and it's a lot of
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: fun to be with them, you know. And camp we're
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: together all day long. So it helps to be around
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: guys that you really like and and they're awesome. What's
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: your goal in this game? What? What? What do you
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: want to accomplish fort time out? Time you play? I
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: just want to go out there and execute, you know.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: I think this camp, we've we've done a lot of
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: good things, and we'll go out there and and you know,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: put our best foot forward. I just want to, you know,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: move the ball around, get the ball in my guy's
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: hands and and uh, you know, just help the offense,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: you know, being the best best position we can to
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: just to execute, go out and score points and and uh,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: I think that's that's the bottom line, is this execution.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: What's what's it been like to part? You know, I'm
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: playing for Doug, especially with it, you know, kind of
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: quarterback background. Yeah, Doug is awesome. I mean it's it's
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: so nice. And and then h having Mike to you know,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: guys that have played the position, and and uh, it's
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: is fun getting in that room and you've got so
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: many minds that have been in that position before, you know,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: with all of us playing and then the guys you
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: know that are coaching, and uh, you get a lot
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: of a lot of fun conversations going, good ideas rolling
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: and everybody gets it. So, I mean it's it's been
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: great so far. I love playing for this staff. It's
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: been awesome. Can you kind of tell just and Doug's
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: approach that he kind of has that you know, sees
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: a team through the quarterback's perspective and mentality. Yeah, I
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: think you know, we can definitely tell as quarterbacks. You know,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: it's like he fits in the room, you know, like
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: a glove. I mean, it comes in there and like
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I said, we'll just say would have good conversations and
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: we all see things pretty similarly. So it's been a
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: lot of fun. I know there's a lot of guys
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: will be good coordinators, quarterback coaches and head coaches in
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: this league who didn't necessarily play at the NFL level. Well,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: what kind of perspective this Doug brains from having played
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: at that level and the guy and the guy played
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: with Aaron Robbers as he played on the same team
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: with the Marino for a while, And what kind of
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: perfective is that brand. Yeah, like you said, there's a
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: lot of great coaches that didn't play the quarterback puisition.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: But I think as a quarter back it's really helpful.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: I think, you know, you're able to kind of see
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: things the same way, you speak the same language. Um,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: they have experience doing it. So, like you said, they've
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: been around some great players, you know, just hearing the
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: stories and and you know, hearing things that those guys
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: did in the past that made them so great and
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: made the players around them so great. I think a
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: quarterback that's so vital is not only do you need
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to be able to execute, but you gotta make the
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: guys around you great too, And just hearing what they've experienced,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: what they've done in the past and how that can
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: help us become a better team has been awesome. You
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: have a mantra, let's say that a saying or something
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: that he really says frequently about playing this you know,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: it's always gonna stick out with you for the rest
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: of your career. But he no matter how long he played,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's any any specific mantra that he has. UM,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: nothing that that comes to mind. I think it's just
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: like I keep saying, just the conversations that we're able
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: to have, you know, I think he sees it so
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: similarly to us that it's it's we always have good
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: conversations afterwards, whether it's a mistake or a good player,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: whatever it is, to be able to come back and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and uh see things the same way. Um, it is
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: really good. Is there something that he demands more than
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: anything had to lay in the position? I mean, I
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: think he because he's a quarterback. I think he expects,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you know, us to play at a high level and
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: he expects to come out every day with a lot
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: of intensity and get the guys going. But UM, like
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I I just keep saying, you know, it's just awesome
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: to play for an ex quarterback. Um, and yeah, what
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: have you seen so far from a snoop Connor? You know,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: young guys. Seems like, you know, he s had some
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: big runs. It seems like he's gonna play a lot
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: of the it's been doing great. He's had a great camp.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I think it was yesterday, the day before. I think
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: he had his best day at camp. You know, he
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: picked up some some tough looks in the past game,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: you know, protection wise, he had some great runs. Um,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: it's been fun watching him girl already in camp and
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: and I'm excited to see what he hasn't store. And
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: then Jake, I know you weren't here, you know, for
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of reading he's you know, last year, or
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: you were here for all lots years training camp. Do
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: you feel like this training camp? Driss in comparison, it
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: feels like, you know, things are structured or maybe organized
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: more along the way of how they should be. Um,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: you know, I think it's been structured really well. I
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: think that you know, we're we're grinding, like we're getting
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: after its long days. But I think they're taking care
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of us too. Um, you guys are fired up. I know,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I think we like coming out in the morning. I know, personally,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I do, you know, get up and let's go play football.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: You know, that's kind of how it is. And so
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I think every day the guys are pretty fired up
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: just to get out here. And then after this we're
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: able to go back and kind of mellow out a
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: little bit, really hone in on on what we did,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: did well, did bad, and practice and and then we're
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: able to go to you know, do the walk through
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: stuff and and uh so I think it's structured really well.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: I think it's it's been awesome so far right cool.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Thank you guys, appreciate it.
