  Speaker 1: They expect a pin blocking.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: It's a sweep, our jet sweeper or something like that.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: So they were expecting that and I kind of sold
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: like I was trying to pin them, and I held
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: it for a little bit and threw them off and
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: caught a touchdown. It was a great play call versus
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: the perfect.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: Defense for so and I guess you're getting to that
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: time of year where teams are trying to kind of
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: get hot. I mean, you're late in the season. What
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: can a win like you got yesterday kind of mean
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: for the rest of the way.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: It's it's huge. It's one of those things where it's
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: it's one of those games where.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: You kind of beside yourself up and see where you
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: guys are at and how we could finish the season.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: That team was seven and three at the time, one
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: of the one of the hottest teams in the NFL
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: that people think that is a really good team, and
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: we went out there and showed them that where we
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: have that caliber. Uh sorry, long night, but we showed
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: we showed that we're a good team and when we
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: put it all together, that we could go out there
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: and be anybody appreciate you Tim of course, justin followed
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: by d Rock.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Hey, Tom, appreciate you doing this. It looked like Liam
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: is opening up the playbook a little bit more. I
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: know you played for Ben Johnson and Detroit. Just kind
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: of having a coach that isn't afraid to dial up
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: something that's a misdirection or it'll get the defense going
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: one way and then able to throw it back on
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: the other side of the field. Just what is that like?
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: It's fun being a part of often similar last year
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: it really opened my eyes of like how smart these
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: play callers are nowadays. And Liam is up there right
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: there with him, and he he he does so many
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: things to put the defense in the on their heels,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: to second guests himself, and he puts us in the
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: right place most of the time. And all we have
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: to do is go out there and make the play.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: He makes it easy for us.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: And then just as an offense, being able to kind
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: of carry the low while Brian is out, while a
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: lot of guys are banged up, Travis's out, Just how
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: has that been being able to just continue to produce
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: on offense.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: It's been fun.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: It's allowing other guys to thrive, but also when those
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: guys do come back. The coaching staff will have trust
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: in everybody, like anybody could go out there and make plays.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, Brian Thomas is
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: one hell of a talent, one hell of a player,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: and there's some things some of us can't do that
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: he can do.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: So getting him back is going to be huge for offense.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Thank you man, yep?
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: Do you rock? Fellow by Shipley?
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: Heany, Tim, good morning. I hate to ask it this way,
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: but you've been around the league for a little bit.
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: We probably face situations where you've been in like last week,
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: where you're coming off a huge disappointing loss the way
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: it happened, was there a part of you that was
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: interested to see how Liam was going to handle that,
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: how we would handle you guys and handle the locker room,
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: and what's your impression now after kind of going through
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: that week with him.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: I was more interested to see how we will bounce
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: back as a team. Like you go through a week, obviously,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: you don't talk to everybody on the team every every
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: day or every week, and it was just one of
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: those things where I just want to see if we
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: will come out with the same fight as we did
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: in Houston. And we did exactly that, but this time
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: it was just a different type of energy where we
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: knew the lead wasn't safe after what happened last week,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: and we made sure we kept our foot on the
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: thrall of the whole time.
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: How would you describe the way Liam is in terms
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: of relating to the players.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Uh, He's probably the most relatable head coach I've ever had,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: so I would put.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Him up there.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: Why Why is he the most relatable head coach you
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: ever had?
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Why I had?
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: I had Dan Campbell, It's hard not to be intimidated
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: by him. I had I had a Vig Fangio. I'm
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: pretty sure he's in his seventies. Who else have I had?
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I had Vance Joseph, I've had Missing, I had Nathaniel Hackett,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: I had Sean Payton, And out of all those guys,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Liam was the most relatable. I don't know, I feel
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: like just because probably because we're not too far off
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: age wise, But he's he's a he's he's a players coach,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: but he knows when to be tough at the same time.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Awesome, Thank you, yep, last one, John Shipley, Hey Tim.
• 4:37
  Speaker 7: Thanks for doing this. When when Jacobe got here.
• 4:39
  Speaker 8: He said that he was excited to kind of be
• 4:41
  Speaker 8: on your team because he's always kind of watched your
• 4:43
  Speaker 8: game from far. You guys have had similar journeys. What's
• 4:45
  Speaker 8: it been like kind of getting to know him and
• 4:47
  Speaker 8: being teammates with him.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: It's been super fun, super fun.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: It's crazy because when I first signed my deal, my
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: big deal, he was one of the first people to
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: reach out to me, and and ever since then, I've
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: been watching his game and just to see we have
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: similar trade, similar mentality when it comes to football, and
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: to meet a guy, have an expectation about him and
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: him to live up to that expectation has been amazing.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Energy's crazy. And at the end of the day, we
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: want to just we want to make the defense are
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: the DB's.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Give up. That's kind of our game.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Make them give up in the past game and the
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: run game, in every aspect of football, we.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Want them to give up by the end of the game.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: And it's been a pleasure playing with him these past
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: two games.
• 5:38
  Speaker 8: And then when you guys run the ball almost fifty
• 5:40
  Speaker 8: times against a team just as a receiver, somebody kind
• 5:43
  Speaker 8: of embraces the dirty work of blocking. I mean, just
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: how much you guys enjoyed that aspect of it. Obviously
• 5:47
  Speaker 8: you want the ball, but see guy's kind of imposure wealth.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: It's fun.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: People don't realize that the run game helps you get
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: open in the past game. If you make it all
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: look the same, the defender never knows what you're going
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: to do. Is going into block or is you going
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: in to run a route? And it's one of those things.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: I embrace it because the one year I did embrace it,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: I had one of my best years because it kept
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: the dv's on his toes all game. You couldn't if
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I just jog off the ball to block somebody. They
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: know us to run if I and then when I spread,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: they know it's the pass. If I do the same
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: thing every play, they never know in this In this league,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: you always got to find an edge, and that's one
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: of my edges.
• 6:24
  Speaker 8: Was your touchdown kind of an example of that because
• 6:26
  Speaker 8: I know you guys did the toss earlier in the game.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: It was exactly an example, and you see how easy
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: that was. Thanks.
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: I appreciate that.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you.
• 6:36
  Speaker 7: That's everyone. Thanks, Cam, appreciate.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: You, guys, Hey, Danny, thank you for doing this.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: I know I talked to you about it a few
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: weeks ago, but seeing Josh yesterday break that record at
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: this point of your career kind of just what was
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: that moment like for you?
• 6:52
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's it's cool to be a part of such
• 6:55
  Speaker 7: a big moment for him.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, I get to see all the
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: behind the scenes stuff of how he works and you
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: know what he puts in not just on Sundays but
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: every day throughout the week on and off the field.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: It's cool to kind of see him have that moment
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: and you know, get to be a part of that
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: with the rest of the guys in the room because
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: we all know that you know, he deserves it. He's
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: a guy that's very deserving of, you know, holding that
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: honor and he's going to continue to build upon it.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: And this might be a little weird, so sorry if
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: it is, but I'm assuming you're one of the guys
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: that go up against the first team offense at practice
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: when you see them install kind of like a new
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: play or a trick play or misdirection play. Have you
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: ever kind of just set and thought about just how
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: creative Liam is and how that's how our ball gets
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: that done.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely, There's there's some plays that we see who
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: are like, I haven't seen that one before, and you know,
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: it's cool to see it in practice, and then you
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: go watch the offense during the game and they run
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: the same play and it works really well and you're like, oh, okay, so.
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: I see what's unfolding now.
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: But yeah, it's it's awesome to be able to, you know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: go up against those guys in practice every day. Obviously
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: it makes us better on the show team, but also
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: it's cool just to see, you know, them practicing that stuff.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: They're tuned into the details and everything, and then you
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: go see them executed on Sundays. It's it really shows,
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: you know how locked in those guys are. The coaching staff,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: the players, everybody that's part of the execution of that.
• 8:22
  Speaker 7: It's cool to see those things unfold on Sundays. Thank
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: you man, Don Shipley, Hey Danny, thanks for doing this.
• 8:31
  Speaker 8: Just how big has the rest of that defensive line
• 8:33
  Speaker 8: room been for you?
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: Just knowing other veterans like.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Josh and Trayvon and Eric.
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I've I've talked.
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: I probably sound like a broken record at this point,
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: but having such a heavy veteran presence in that room
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: has been huge for you know, us young guys and
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: just being able to.
• 8:48
  Speaker 7: Absorb the knowledge that's in that room.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: I mean, these guys have seen so much football, and
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: you know, I've joked around with some of them about,
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: you know, when they played their where I was when
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: they played their first NFL snap, and some of them
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: it was like, you were in the NFL before I
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: played my first varsity snap in high school.
• 9:04
  Speaker 7: So I like to joke around with him about that.
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: But on a serious note, it's it's there's so much
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: information in there, and they've forgotten more about the game
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: than you know, I've seen, and so it's awesome to
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: be able to just hear the way they think here,
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: how they see the game, and then have them pass
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: down some information that you know, can be super helpful
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: for me early on in my NFL career.
• 9:26
  Speaker 8: And Liam said yesterday he felt like the trenches were
• 9:29
  Speaker 8: kind of the deciding factor in the game. When there's
• 9:31
  Speaker 8: a game like that, can you kind of tell early
• 9:33
  Speaker 8: on when like the defensive lines just kind of have
• 9:35
  Speaker 8: one of those.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: Days, you know, I think it, you don't really realize
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: it in the game. It's more so when you go
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: back and look at it on a film, like, you know,
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: the d line was clicking really well yesterday, they're rushing
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: together in the run game, we're working really well together.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: You don't really obviously you feel it, you feel the
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: success out there, but you're still thinking, you know that
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: next play mentality A good play, bad play, next play.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: It's really when you go watch the film, it's like, Okay,
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: how did this set up this?
• 10:04
  Speaker 7: And how did this set up this?
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: You kind of see, you know, how well the group
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: was clicking, how well the defense and the team was
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: clicking all day when you go back and watch the tape.
• 10:13
  Speaker 7: But when you're out there, you're really just trying to
• 10:15
  Speaker 7: stay keat.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: In to the next play because you know, if you
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: ride those highs and lows, that's when you start to
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: make mistakes and you start to not play fast. So
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: you just try to stay locked in to that next
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: play mentality.
• 10:27
  Speaker 7: Thanks Dan, appreciate it.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you,
