  Speaker 1: Doug, I hate to ask you about an injury first,
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: but can you update us on Trevor? And just have
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: you ever seen a game in which you lose nickel, corner, receiver,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: left tackle, quarterback. It just you know, interior defensive linemen.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Just seemed like a very odd game.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: I don't have any information yet on Trevor. We're still
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: evaluating him, you know, so he'll have more you know,
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: tests and things done here tonight and tomorrow, so I'll
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: probably have a better update for you tomorrow on that.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: But I mean, yeah, we had position players go down,
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: you know, but look, that's part of the game. You know,
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: it happens, and it's unfortunate, but you know, next guy
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: up has to has to be ready to go and play.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: And you know, I thought the guys, the guys that
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: filled in, you know, we're we're just that they were
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: ready to go.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Defensively, what were some issues that you guys had tonight
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: and trying to slow down since yeah, I'm sorry, defensively, Yeah,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: what what kind of stood out of why they were
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: able to have the you know, yeah, we.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Didn't we didn't stop the run, you know, I mean,
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: that's that's the strength of our defense is stopping the run.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: That's you know, we just didn't do that. We failed
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: there and we got a you know, we got too
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: many explosive plays we gave up. And you know, when
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: you when you can't obviously offensively, when you can't run
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: the ball, and then when the running game for them
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: is going, I mean, you see what happens, right, that's
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: where the explosiveness comes from. And you know we had
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: moments on offense where we got some explosives, but you know,
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: there's all stemmed from being able to run the ball successfully.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: Coach, what's your initial level of concern with Trevor's injury?
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know until I talk to the doctors, honestly.
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: Confidence level in CJ going forward? Obviously, will you guys
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: make him the starter when you look at other options out.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: There, or yeah, we'll see where Trevor's at first. And
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: but listen, we got hundred percent confidence in CJ. I mean,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: he did a nice job, you know, getting us down
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: the field there and and you know, tying the football
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: game should have been the game winning field goal, but
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: it wasn't. But you know, got a lot of confidence
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: in CJ. And you know he's he's a vet player,
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: he's played a lot of football, and if he happens
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: to be the guy, then then uh, you know, we
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: get behind him and support him.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: It seemed like defensively there are where's a lot of
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: communication issues. Is that what you saw out there? And
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: if so, what what was sort of going on with that?
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean listen, if you're on the field. Were
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: you on the field, could you hear the crowd?
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I could hear.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Now what do you mean.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: If you're on the field and the crowd as loud
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: as they are when we're on defense, you're going to
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: have we have to reiterate communication. And that's all it is.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: It's just it's just double checking with everybody. It's not
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: communication issues, it's just being able to communicate.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: The calls effectively.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: So there's a lot of talk that has to go
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: back and forth because of the way the crowd and
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: the crowd was great today, you know, and that's what
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: you want, and it does kind of, you know, put
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: your defense in a little bit of a bind because
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: of that, right, no different than the offense going into
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: a environment that's very loud.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Communication.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't say they're issues, they're just you just got
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: to over over communicate.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Well, I guess the question is why couldn't you guys
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: overcome that?
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: What are you talking about specifically? You said you have
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: to communicator, You just have to be. You just gotta talk.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: You just gotta gotta make verbal communicator, eye contact, you
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: gotta you gotta go, you gotta get closer. It's just
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: just part of you know, part of a loud a
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: loud environment. And you know it's it's repeating yourself, you know,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: as much as you can out on the field. You know,
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: it's it's foyer to the to the front, it's to
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: the secondary, secondary, you know, to out to the corners
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: and all that, and just you know, everybody has to
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: be on the same page.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Doug, you guys had to burn a time out I
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: think it was your second one of the second half
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: because someone ran on the field. Did you get an
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: explanation or what can you use it?
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: It was unfortunate, Yeah, we just one of our guys, Evan,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: was asking for some water after a play that he
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: had made and just ran out on the field. It's unfortunate.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: You know. Obviously that's my responsibility to make sure that
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: doesn't happen. And you know it's just an UNSPORTSMUK and
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: they take a time out away.
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: Think, Doug, you mentioned about your confidence having CJ going
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: in right now quarterback, But how much do you have
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: to overcompensate or how much do you have to change
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: up going into the next week or so if Trevor
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: is not available to go, well.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: That's something we'll look at. But I don't think we
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: have to change J up a whole lot, you know,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: you know c J can. You just got to utilize
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: CJ's strengths, you know, And and you know I don't
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: want CJ to be Trevor either. You know, CJ's got
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: to be CJ. So that's something if if moving forward,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: if CJ, you know, plays next week, then then that's
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: that's the game plan, right you just utilize his strength
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: and and Taylor of the offense around that.
• 5:22
  Speaker 7: Doug way back in the back, Will Brown, w J
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: c T news. Uh, this is a Monday night game
• 5:27
  Speaker 7: and you're you're turning around and taking your brother trip
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: on Sunday with so many people who had to leave
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: the game injured. Describe the challenge of getting this team
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: physically prepared, uh for a shorter week.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's you know, it's a challenge, but listen,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: you know it's again, it's part of the game. And
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: and you know that's why you you know, you have
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: fifty three and you got your practice squad.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: You got to get the next guy ready to go.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: And you know it's gonna take It's gonna take everybody

• 5:59
  Speaker 3: two days, and and you know, so we just got
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: to get the next guy coached up.
• 6:05
  Speaker 8: Parker Washington a few weeks ago, comes in and replaces
• 6:09
  Speaker 8: Jamal agnews upunt return to tonight. He gets an opportunity
• 6:13
  Speaker 8: when when Christian goes down, just his overall performance and
• 6:18
  Speaker 8: and what he did making his first grabs tonight and
• 6:21
  Speaker 8: and just everything that he was about.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know he did he did a
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: nice job, you know, and and you know, when Christian
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: goes down on the first play of the game, it's
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: it's not what you expect, you know. But I thought
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Parker filled in nicely and and you know, Chad, Chad
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: Hall had him ready to go, uh in in that spot,
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: and you know, he made some he made some really
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: nice plays for us obviously the touchdown catch and and
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: you know a couple others, so something he can build
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: on and and uh, you know, continue to uh you know,
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: gain confidence as he plays.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: The way Christian got hurt, was that something unusual, you know,
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: especially hurting a growin the way he fell. It just
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: it looked like an unusual kind of an injury or
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: usual kind of a play.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's unfortunate.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: You know, it was a great play obviously, and I
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: don't know if it was when he got kind of
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: twisted around there and maybe you know, torque or whatever.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it's just just unfortunate.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: You know, such a great play to start the game,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: and and that happened.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: So, you know, not good.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: When you've got a bunch of guys that get hurt
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: like this. Do you worry about the guys being shell
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: shot the rest of the team being shell shot?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: No, No, I don't. You know, we're too far down
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: the road.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: You know, got about a month a little over a
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: month of football left and and you know it's full
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: steam ahead. So you know, we've got to get the
