- 1:11Speaker 3: We're playing hard, we're practicing hard, We're very confident. We're
- 1:15Speaker 3: out being arrogant and that's just shows to the work
- 1:17Speaker 3: that we're putting in. And all we have to do
- 1:19Speaker 3: is go out there and play every week, and uh,
- 1:22Speaker 3: we wanna be a dominant defense. But it's gonna start
- 1:24Speaker 3: with practice and it's gonna carry over to the game
- 1:26Speaker 3: on Sundays, Thursdays, Mondays, what every day.

- 1:54Speaker 1: don't get that opportunity when your stamp start limited ends
- 1:57Speaker 1: just the the time and the practice an ounces.
- 1:59Speaker 2: And get ready for it. Yeah, with that, our revert
- 2:01Speaker 2: back to practice.
- 2:02Speaker 3: You know, we practice very hard and I have no
- 2:05Speaker 3: doubt in my mind that each guy's gonna do their
- 2:08Speaker 3: job and each guy that we can hold each other accountable. Uh. Yeah,
- 2:11Speaker 3: we don't play it much in the preseason, but you know,
- 2:14Speaker 3: practice piece for itself, that's where it starts at. And uh,
- 2:16Speaker 3: you know practice is hard for a reason, you know.
- 2:19Speaker 3: So we get the Sunday it's a dress worse. You know,
- 2:21Speaker 3: we can get going and you know, I'm not gonna
- 2:23Speaker 3: say it's gonna be easy, but you know we are
- 2:25Speaker 3: prepared for it.
- 2:26Speaker 2: How did practices your er? Uh? The other teams? You know,
- 2:31Speaker 2: it's difference everywhere.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Everybody has different teachings, you know, different philosophies that they
- 2:35Speaker 3: go through.
- 2:36Speaker 2: And here it's always the energy. It's fast. You have
- 2:39Speaker 2: to be able to run, you have to be able
- 2:41Speaker 2: to move, you have to be able to think fast.
- 2:42Speaker 3: You have to be able to be accountable and be responsible,
- 2:45Speaker 3: that you gotta be trustworthy, that you uh that you're
- 2:47Speaker 3: gonna do your job. It's the same way everywhere else.
- 2:49Speaker 3: But you know, sometimes we do take your paths. I
- 2:51Speaker 3: oper take the load off, but it's still a physical
- 2:53Speaker 3: practice because we're using our hands. We're getting our head
- 2:55Speaker 3: out of the game, you know. We we are using hip,
- 2:58Speaker 3: hands and feet and those are the things that can
- 2:59Speaker 3: carey with Whippans with that passion.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Different places that move in your bed, watch sun of
- 3:05Speaker 1: shade or which one's your favorite?

- 3:12Speaker 2: two one zero take off, I played at all. You
- 3:15Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. Football is football for me at
- 3:16Speaker 2: the end of the day. I like to be versatile
- 3:19Speaker 2: and you know, just be where ever the team needs
- 3:21Speaker 2: me to play. How new was this one for you?
- 3:24Speaker 1: Do you different places to the scene, but.
- 3:27Speaker 2: It's nothing new? And then they just shaved and shade
- 3:29Speaker 2: the three is the three? Five? Was five?

- 3:37Speaker 1: that you got your.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Course out and how all kinds?
- 3:39Speaker 3: At first I thought I was gonna be traumatizing because
- 3:43Speaker 3: those were my bess you know, as a rookie. But
- 3:45Speaker 3: you know, it was good scene. The man like I
- 3:46Speaker 3: was talking to Clifford might be seem white, my face
- 3:49Speaker 3: sweating a little bit. It's not hair glow, I promise,
- 3:51Speaker 3: but but you know, having them in here, it was like,
- 3:54Speaker 3: you know, a new energy that was that came in
- 3:56Speaker 3: the building. That just showed me that they care and
- 3:59Speaker 3: that they wanna see us do well. And you know,
- 4:01Speaker 3: getting a knowledge from them guys, it really took me back.
- 4:04Speaker 3: I was telling us, I think the most kid today.
- 4:06Speaker 3: It took me back a little bit, you know, just
- 4:08Speaker 3: just it's I wouldn't say just humbling, but it was
- 4:12Speaker 3: very just like just reminiscent type and you know, and
- 4:16Speaker 3: it brought me back. I think it was like, yeah,
- 4:18Speaker 3: I gotta work hard. You know, I kind of wanna
- 4:20Speaker 3: show them guys, I still got it. It was I
- 4:22Speaker 3: I wasn't tryna impress them, but show 'em I'm working hard.
- 4:25Speaker 3: You know that what they taught me. You know, I
- 4:27Speaker 3: bought along with me during my whole career. So that
- 4:29Speaker 3: was real good.
- 4:29Speaker 2: You know, hope who were getting back out here if
- 4:31Speaker 2: it's allowed.
- 4:32Speaker 1: But his body in the plaints and guys who more
- 4:34Speaker 1: body is in.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Everybody's focused, everybody's locked in. The preparation is phenomenal. Uh.
- 4:41Speaker 3: The when we got to the field, they say we
- 4:43Speaker 3: put a new play in that they uh, it's really
- 4:45Speaker 3: no mistakes, it's no mental errors. If it is, it's
- 4:48Speaker 3: just a slick change. And you don't have to say
- 4:50Speaker 3: the same thing to these guys over and over. You
- 4:52Speaker 3: tell'em to do it, one time, they gonna do it,
- 4:54Speaker 3: and you know that's what you need. And I think
- 4:56Speaker 3: everybody's on the same Pageent's defense. Everybody wants to be dominant,
- 4:59Speaker 3: everybody wants to be great. Everybody wants to change the
- 5:01Speaker 3: narrative that we have right now in this defense.
- 5:03Speaker 1: What have you seen out of Mike Morrison, Cameron Young
- 5:06Speaker 1: when they've been out there with.
- 5:07Speaker 2: You guys, Yeah, training Cam? Uh well, I'm saying for
- 5:09Speaker 2: Mike that he's coached very well. He has the basis.
- 5:12Speaker 3: Now, he's still young and he still has to learn
- 5:14Speaker 3: a lot, you know, about being a professional football player.
- 5:17Speaker 2: But I think he's gonna be good.
- 5:18Speaker 3: And uh, Cam, I'm really tryna take him under my wing,
- 5:20Speaker 3: just teach him the game, cause we don't need both
- 5:22Speaker 3: those guys long down the stretch. You know, they gonna
- 5:24Speaker 3: have to play as long as we stay on 'em.
- 5:26Speaker 3: I'm not worried about 'em. They gonna grow with us,
- 5:28Speaker 3: and I think they're gonna be great players.
- 5:30Speaker 2: What kind of the t impact has a creative Jordan?
- 5:32Speaker 2: The kind of happen with you guys for it. That's
- 5:35Speaker 2: been a great impact. Uh.
- 5:36Speaker 3: I've been on Brandon Jordan for you know, probably say
- 5:40Speaker 3: about three or four years now, back when he was
- 5:42Speaker 3: just training, uh, just training guys in the off season.
- 5:45Speaker 3: And the addition to him is is is a is
- 5:48Speaker 3: just it's awesome because you get with d uh with
- 5:52Speaker 3: d lou coach. D Lou a a run coach who's
- 5:54Speaker 3: also a past coach. But then you get a pass
- 5:56Speaker 3: versus specialist who we could just craft on. He's there
- 5:59Speaker 3: twenty four seting wherever we need him. We could be
- 6:02Speaker 3: in gym clothes or or in the co hotel clothes.
- 6:04Speaker 3: You know, we could be able to work with him
- 6:06Speaker 3: on our moves and do everything. It's unlimited coaching when
- 6:09Speaker 3: it comes to Brandon Jordan. I think he's been a
- 6:11Speaker 3: great addition to this team.
- 6:13Speaker 2: How would your characterize the fans. He's a fast defense
- 6:16Speaker 2: about you.
- 6:18Speaker 3: I think it's all around nothing as fast, physical, smart
- 6:22Speaker 3: running in here, and uh, that's what we're about. And
- 6:25Speaker 3: I think that's gonna be good. And Sunday, September tenth,
- 6:29Speaker 3: you know, we wanna see.
- 6:31Speaker 1: What your person expect Bobby to have on the TV.
- 6:34Speaker 3: About the same thing Bobby Wadding has been doing his
- 6:36Speaker 3: whole career. Uh, I don't spend nothing different Bobby. I
- 6:39Speaker 3: have no worries at all with Bobby Waddon and playing
- 6:41Speaker 3: behind me. My job is to keep him free and
- 6:43Speaker 3: that's what I'm gonna do. We all know Ms the
