  Speaker 1: Could you just talk about your game yesterday and you
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: know you said you wanted to be consistent. You said
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: you wanted to look for consistency. Do you think you
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: at that yesterday?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Uh, We're gonna see you next week and then following
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: week after that. Uh. I think it was a good
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: start of the year. Uh, watching the table's things that
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: are I know I can get better on, but I
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: think it was just the relentlessness and the things that
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: you can't coach. I showed that. I showed that a
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: lot uh yesterday, and you know I wanna build on
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: that and continue to go.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: The defense as a whole coming up with some crucial
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: fourth down stops. How big is that for you guys
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: as a unit?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: I mean it's huge. Uh. You know, we wanna be
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the team the defense that we know we can become. Uh.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: We have to make plays like that and uh and
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: big moments, and we've been in we were in a
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: lot of big moments this week, and uh we capitalized.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: So we gotta continue to go, continue to communicate well,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: continue to be in the right spot when time need to,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: and continue to make those plays.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: You got Pat Mahomes coming this week.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: Third time you guys play him in a year, but
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: this time it's in Jackson. How much does that location
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: make a difference at all?
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: I mean it doesn't make a doesn't really make a
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: big difference. I know he's he's Patrick Mahones, and you
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: know if Kelsey players are not, they're a heck of
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: a team. So you know we're gonna have to be
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: real disciplined in our eyes this week, and we're gonna
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: have to keep him in the pocket as well. You know,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: he's another guy that can scramble. He's a little wiggly, uh,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: so he can run left, run right, back, it up,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: go forward. So uh, just to be able to stay
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: relentless and continue to grow on that. But you know,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: this is a this is a game that we must win,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: playoff game for us. We may see this team later
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: down the road, so we want to get in early
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: and uh just can't. And we also can't lose a
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: home uh. And we know our fans are gonna show
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: out and be out there even though it's gonna be
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: really hot. We know they're gonna cheer and support us.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: So we're really excited for that and ready to go.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Do you reflect on that last game against the Chiefs
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: at all before this one.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: I mean personally, it's a little personal for me, man,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: because the last two times I played them last year,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: I wasn't at my best and uh so for me,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: you know, it's, uh, it's personal. But at the end
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: of the day, I got a job to do and
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: for me to be where I need to be, I
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: also need to know what I'm doing out there. So
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: just the film, study, the preparation uh takes full in.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: So if I continue to do that, continue to practice, well,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: then everything else is gonna take care of yourself. And
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: that's what I'm you know, wanna be more consistent on.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: All officers and the defense is kind of pretinct. Takeaways
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: shirts have been made. There be several players that have
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: talked about and then yesterday you guys get it done.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Just how how does that come to fruition? What? I know,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the think takeaways when you think about something that becomes
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: prevalent in your mind, but to see it happen on
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: the fields, Just how does that work?
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, everybody got to get to the ball. Uh.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: We know our identity, we know what it takes to
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: win these games, especially big games like these. You know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: you got to take the ball away, get the opportunity,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: get the ball back to the offense to give them opportunities. Uh.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: And next week it's gonna be no different. This is
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: a big game, and in order to beat Patrick malmes Man,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: you need to create takeaways. When you look at the
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: first game they played, you know, a big pick six,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: you know, and then you have the other uh turnover.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: So you know, we have to be we gotta fly
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: around to the ball. We gotta be relentless. And we
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: also got to have that one too. And uh and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: uh as we're looking, man, we got that one too,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: and so we got to stay on it, stay communicative
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: and really keep you know, really have a lot of
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: discipline in our eyes. And if we continue to do that,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: you know, everything's gonna take care of itself.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Stomping the colds on fourth down three different times, just say,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: what's it really different?
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: You guys like energy? Confidence? I mean, you know, for
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: me personally, man, it was just get off the field.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: You know, I think as a defense man, we just
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: think about getting off the field. Confidence. We knew that's
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: something that we know we can do. So uh to
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: go out there and continue to do it, you know,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: That's what happened. When we all communicate, we all line
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: up and where we need to be, and we all
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: go out there and be relentless and try to make
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: a play. And so that's our standard. And uh, you know,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: it may not happen like that or whatever, but you
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: know we're gonna line up, we're gonna play fast, we're
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: gonna play through the whistle. And if we continue to
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: do that, I think we're gonna have a lot of successors.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Sare and then Johns Truck.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: You played a lot of games for his franchise, just
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: which offensively a big game.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: How does a field now that just having big games
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: kind of consistent thing? You know?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: For this team now it's huge. Uh you know, I've
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: been there for this my fifth season, and you know,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Thursday night was a big game. Last year I played
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: in probably the most meaningful games and not going to
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: this year early I think I think last week was
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: a big game divisional game on a you know, a
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: road win. And now we have our first home game
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: against the defending Super Bowl champs. So, uh, you know,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: playing these meaningful games early it means a lot. And
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: while we're all fresh and ready to go, man, we
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: got to take advantage of this and and really really
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: get on these guys.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: Spent some time here in Jacksonville with Jawan, Taylor, practiced
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: against him a lot, got to know him over the years.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: How does that playing at all now that you're gonna
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: probably line up against him at some point on Sunday.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: You know his game, he kind of knows yours.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, uh, dealing with Juan Man, I've been
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: knowing Juwan since college. You know, We've been having battles
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: way back from Florida and Kentucky and then you know,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: obviously we get drifted together. So having those battles with
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: him up there and then also training with him in
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Orange Park, Uh, and being able to do that with him,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: It's just awesome. And I'm excited to play against him.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Trevon is as well. Travon, I'm going to get some
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: since last year as well. So, uh, he knows what
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: we can do. We know what he can do. So
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: we continue to do what we supposed to do. I
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: think we'll have a good opportunity to go on some
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: game on some rushers.
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: The last part of this game was back and forth.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: They scored a defensive touchdown to take the lead, but
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: the defense was still there time after time to kind
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: of keeping a close game. I felt like last year
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: at the end of last season, how did those games,
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: you know, have a full team effort carrying over toil week.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: One, you know, coach breaches, Uh, you know, we we
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: gotta find a way to win. And I think you know,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: and the last year season we found ways to win
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: those games. And just starting the season off with we
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: know how to win. Let's continue that treat, you know
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: that streak and you know the defense man, we just
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: we picked off what we left off at the offense.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: You know, when we needed to score, they scored the ball.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: I mean they scored thirty one points. You know, that's them.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: That's a lot of points in nast Football League. So uh,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: whatever the way they look, we scored thirty one points
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: and we got off the field when we need to
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: get off. So when you talk about the three phases,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I think it was a complete game. Uh, but we
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: also need to find ways to build on this. Uh
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: next week. Uh, like I said, were playing against the
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: divisional champs, and we're gonna have to be ready to
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: go all phrases and you know, starting practice that was Yeah,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: about talk about the uh physicality you had this last game.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You played really good in the run and uh talk
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: about your hat trick you had yesterday as well. I
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: mean I think it's uh, I credit it all to
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: my defensive linemates. Uh. You know, all all four guys,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: all three guys if so, you know, did their job
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: and allowed me to have one on one opportunities to
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: dominate my matchup. Uh. But you know, dealing with you know,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I can go all with down the line. You know,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: you got myself and you have Mr royd Robinson Harris,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: who is a dominant individual. You know, in the past game,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: if he didn't slip, he would have had the first sack.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: You know. But next week, I think he's gonna capitalize
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: all those opportunities. I think he's gonna be a hell
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: of a player. I think he's gonna have a hell
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: of a season this year. Excited for him. Who else?
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: We got foley Man dominant when you watch the tape, Uh,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: where you going? You know, Jeremiah Ledbetter, Adam Gostis, you know,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Blacks and you know I didn't think my deference line
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: has been rolling and uh we gotta continue that. You know,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: someone's like SEC ball. You know, in SCC ball, you
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: gotta win a battle up front. In the NFL, you
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: gotta win a battle up front. And so we all
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: got that mentality that we gotta dominate, and uh including
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: third Bonn as well, so continued to go
