- 0:03Speaker 1: What's u here? Okay? You do?
- 0:05Speaker 2: Well?
- 0:06Speaker 1: Is it how I'm doing? Yeah? I appreciate it. I'm going, well,
- 0:08Speaker 1: how are you correct? Good? Hey, Bobby?
- 0:12Speaker 3: Do you say anything to the young players after week one?
- 0:17Speaker 3: You know, just in terms of gay is there anything
- 0:20Speaker 3: you y you do you feel you have to say
- 0:22Speaker 3: any of the players, especially the young ones after the
- 0:25Speaker 3: last year's performance, or do you just kind of see
- 0:27Speaker 3: how they you know, taking the league.
- 0:30Speaker 1: I think it's a combination of both.
- 0:32Speaker 4: I think you you know, you try to let them
- 0:35Speaker 4: know this a long season and that wasn't a performance
- 0:38Speaker 4: that we wanted to have for the first opening game.
- 0:40Speaker 4: But we can't let that drag into the next week.
- 0:43Speaker 4: We gotta be focused on this week, and you know,
- 0:46Speaker 4: I f feel confident we'll get there.
- 0:51Speaker 2: About back in looked at the film just I guess,
- 0:53Speaker 2: especially the right it was part of just part of
- 0:54Speaker 2: their offers anyway, but kind of all the success that
- 0:56Speaker 2: they have thrown over the middle and stuff like that.
- 0:58Speaker 1: What do you what?
- 0:58Speaker 2: I guess what do you see there of it? You
- 0:59Speaker 2: guys would need to tighten up.
- 1:02Speaker 4: I think it's just uh kind of getting rid of
- 1:05Speaker 4: the leaky artists, you know, because sometimes they were catching
- 1:07Speaker 4: the ball and kind of falling forward, so getting rid
- 1:09Speaker 4: of that, they get it. They did a good job
- 1:11Speaker 4: of kind of pushing our coverage, which ultimately led to
- 1:15Speaker 4: more throws over the middle. But I think it would
- 1:18Speaker 4: get tighter, make our tackles and you know, get some
- 1:21Speaker 4: pressure was on.
- 1:24Speaker 3: By the way, so long as use Yeah, just what
- 1:26Speaker 3: you've seen so far from the lines on film with
- 1:28Speaker 3: challenges percent.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Obviously their offense looked really good last week as well.
- 1:31Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean they do a really good job
- 1:33Speaker 4: complimenting the run game, you know, with their passing game,
- 1:37Speaker 4: I think the the run game is really special. You know,
- 1:41Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised if they try to run it,
- 1:42Speaker 4: you know, thirty forty times or whatever. I think Golf
- 1:45Speaker 4: has done a really good job of his play actions
- 1:47Speaker 4: is getting the ball to his target. So you know,
- 1:51Speaker 4: last game, they just did a really good job of
- 1:54Speaker 4: establishing a run getting a ball into his playmaker hands,
- 1:58Speaker 4: and you know it's a it's a goodie win. Help
- 2:00Speaker 4: encourage you to do your run defense wise, you know, it
- 2:05Speaker 4: was really encouraging. You know, I think we have the
- 2:08Speaker 4: the group that can be a really good run defense.
- 2:11Speaker 4: But you know, to me, it's more so about putting
- 2:13Speaker 4: all together.
- 2:17Speaker 5: Probably, How how far away do you feel like last
- 2:20Speaker 5: week's scheme was from what you guys wanna be? Seemed
- 2:23Speaker 5: like the first half was little shaking spots but not
- 2:27Speaker 5: overly concerning, and then it the second half got away
- 2:29Speaker 5: from you what h How far away does it feel
- 2:31Speaker 5: like after that first game?
- 2:32Speaker 4: I think we just gotta make our plays. I think
- 2:34Speaker 4: it's you know, we have opportunities out there. We had
- 2:37Speaker 4: a couple of things that kind of got away from us.
- 2:39Speaker 4: I honestly feel like if we just lock in and
- 2:42Speaker 4: focus and do the things that we're capable of doing,
- 2:44Speaker 4: I think we'll be just fine.
- 2:46Speaker 6: Probably there's been some renewed call about all stadiums going
- 2:50Speaker 6: to grass fields in the wake of what happened to
- 2:52Speaker 6: Aaron on on Monday Night. You've played on pretty much
- 2:55Speaker 6: every surface in in your career. Where do you stand
- 2:57Speaker 6: on grass versus try.
- 3:01Speaker 4: I'm kind of with the players, I think there's there's
- 3:05Speaker 4: kind of both. I I personally don't mind playing on
- 3:09Speaker 4: it either, but I know a vast majority of my
- 3:13Speaker 4: uh my teammates, the people I've been around, wanna play
- 3:15Speaker 4: on grass. I think there's a lot of studies out
- 3:19Speaker 4: there that shows that grass is better, but there's also
- 3:23Speaker 4: a better mixture. I don't know what it's called, but
- 3:25Speaker 4: it's like a mixture between real and fake grass, which
- 3:28Speaker 4: could be a solution.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Or a compromise.
- 3:31Speaker 4: But you know, more and more you see certain things
- 3:35Speaker 4: like this, it's gonna cause more questions and and you know,
- 3:38Speaker 4: people are gonna want more answers and players are gonna
- 3:40Speaker 4: you know, demand because at the end of the day,
- 3:43Speaker 4: we're the people out there playing. You know, a lot
- 3:46Speaker 4: of guys are talking about analytics and statistics and science
- 3:50Speaker 4: and all that stuff, but at the end of the day,
- 3:52Speaker 4: there's still people out there playing, and people should sometimes
- 3:55Speaker 4: override science.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Being soft, do.
- 4:00Speaker 4: You find it particularly weird or tough to play on
- 4:05Speaker 4: that circace?
- 4:06Speaker 1: Uh?
- 4:06Speaker 4: Nah, I mean I played on it all last year,
- 4:08Speaker 4: so I didn't see, uh, necessarily a problem with it.
- 4:10Speaker 4: But begaining that's me like, I don't I didn't really
- 4:13Speaker 4: see like, uh much of a different I W I would
- 4:14Speaker 4: probably say the softest field it's probably uh Dallas, it's
- 4:19Speaker 4: bad light.
- 4:20Speaker 1: Softest m soft eat is bad more for the most part.
- 4:24Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I just play. I just play so
- 4:27Speaker 1: what's the like would you say right now after what
- 4:30Speaker 1: happens to him?
- 4:31Speaker 4: I would say we were locked in. I would say,
- 4:34Speaker 4: you know, you gotta get that bad taste out of
- 4:35Speaker 4: your mouth. You you definitely didn't wanna perform that way,
- 4:38Speaker 4: and so I you see guys uh more focused. You
- 4:40Speaker 4: see guys on on the details. And that's what's gonna
- 4:42Speaker 4: take to beat this n this Lion's team.
- 4:47Speaker 2: Is some of the blitzen you're doing like a product
- 4:49Speaker 2: of how well you how good you were at it
- 4:50Speaker 2: last year with the rams or is that what what's
- 4:53Speaker 2: going on?
- 4:53Speaker 6: Never how much blitch are you doing?
- 4:55Speaker 1: Uh? Probably a combination. I think we're still tryna figure
- 4:58Speaker 1: it out.
- 4:58Speaker 4: But you know, we were able to do some some
- 5:01Speaker 4: things over there, and you know, I need to to
- 5:05Speaker 4: blitch better, so I will which better.
- 5:08Speaker 2: They kind of knew when you were coming and how
- 5:10Speaker 2: you were coming on Sunday.
- 5:11Speaker 1: What they knew I was gonna come for sure.
- 5:13Speaker 4: I mean they seen it for a long time so
- 5:15Speaker 4: or at least last year, So I definitely didn't think
- 5:19Speaker 4: that I was gonna come in and surprise him about blitzing.
- 5:21Speaker 1: So they had a plan.
- 5:23Speaker 4: They knew I was gonna be there and they make
- 5:26Speaker 4: sure there was somebody there at all times.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Is like a tiing thing said, you got a B
- 5:30Speaker 1: looks better. Is it timing or is it.
- 5:32Speaker 4: I think it's time in I think it's hand placement.
- 5:34Speaker 4: You know, it was one time I try to do
- 5:36Speaker 4: a move and I my hands didn't hit the office
- 5:40Speaker 4: of lineman the way I wanted them to. So it's
- 5:42Speaker 4: a combination between timing and making sure I got my
- 5:45Speaker 4: my target straight.
- 5:46Speaker 1: W with Stafford.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Obviously he did dealt with injuries and stuff like that
- 5:49Speaker 2: last year. I mean, did he was that better than
- 5:50Speaker 2: he was ever being able to play last year?
- 5:52Speaker 1: Or yeah, he played really really well.
- 5:54Speaker 4: I mean, like you said, last year, you know, he
- 5:55Speaker 4: had a lot of injuries that he was dealing with,
- 5:58Speaker 4: and I think at first it was the elbow and
- 5:59Speaker 4: then there was a a knack and you know, god
- 6:03Speaker 4: knows what else. But you know, he looks healthy. He looked,
- 6:07Speaker 4: you know, really good last week.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Anything else, Appreciate it.
