  Speaker 1: Well, just yesterday, always like the defense, great effort against
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Kansas City. What kind of even in the loast, what
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: kind of does that performance do for your confidence with.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Cool just as a unit, you know, still thinking about
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: the game, there's a lot of things that, uh, we
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: need to work on. Uh, a lot of good areas,
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: a lot of bad areas that we need to sharpen
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: and and fix together, you know. But uh, at the
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: end of the day, you know, we just have to
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: continue to execute what we need to do. And uh,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: it was tough, but we got another you know, pretty
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: good opponent coming in here, so we gotta keep our
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: mind focused on that.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Could could you s uh be a little bit more
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: specific on what you mean by bad defense from a defensive.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Standpoint, what you what you thought was.
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: Bad, Whether it was you know, couple of big plays
• 0:48
  Speaker 5: that they had that that you know ended up leading
• 0:50
  Speaker 5: to touchdowns, what's what's is it? Cause you know you
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: did so many good things as a unit, and warning
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: specifically what you think was not.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Good when you play When you play a game, you
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: have plays that are really good and you have plays
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: that are not so good that you, by your standard,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: would consider bad. So it's tough to you know, really
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: sit here and point out every single play that we
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: believe is bad, because there's some things that we really
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: felt like we could do a lot better on. But
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: the ultimate mindset is to take those things that we
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: believe are bad, sharpen them, make them a little stronger,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: and we execute.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, let me give it you plays specifically number one,
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: the pro check over run thirty one yards that started
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: to drive and then there was a thirty four yard
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: pass reception by Justin.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: Watson later on in the same drive.
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: Is it more about the run fits or is it
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: more about not getting more pressure on the homes of
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: the pass play?
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: It's just really more about the defense. Is gelling even
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: more together, talking more, get our eyes right, our hands right,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: you know, be more tech, technolog technically sound, you know,

  Speaker 2: He cares about us most importantly, so obviously you know,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: yeah this Uh, this is his second time in this position,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: so you know, he bind and get better and we
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: we feel that and we feel this entire team is
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: getting better.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: So what where is treyvon Walker better?
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: What have you seen from him this year after that
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: rookie season last year?
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Where has he made the most strives?
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Uh, He's becoming even more of a student of a game.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: He was a sponge last year. He's become even more
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: of a sponge.
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Uh, he's starting to really find his niche and he's
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: he's doing a lot of good things. So but I
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: know his mindset is not to get complacent and he
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: wants to continue to grow.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: Same thing with Devin Lloyd. Where's he made.
• 3:48
  Speaker 7: Those most strides? I put them in the same category.
• 3:52
  Speaker 8: You guys talked about think takeaways as a defense and
• 3:55
  Speaker 8: through the first two games they've been flowing. Just how
• 3:58
  Speaker 8: has that come to fruition this year? You guys have
• 4:00
  Speaker 8: been able to get your hands on the ball quite
• 4:02
  Speaker 8: a bit.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Mindset, mindset standard come into the game. It's part of ours,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: part of our belief and we come into the game
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: and we try to just execute that belief. But uh,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: you know, for everybody to be where they need to
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: be where they need to be there, and we should
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: be uh experiencing some good things.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: So well, Lee, would you guys take it?
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Does does a defense shaken as a compliment when Doug
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: rolls the dice on fourth.
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: Down on offense? Cause?
• 4:27
  Speaker 9: Did?
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like he's got the confidence that if
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: it fails, you guys are still gonna make the stob Uh.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: The defense takes it as just another opportunity to get
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: ready to get ready to roll. So uh, the head
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: coach obviously knows exactly what he's doing. Obviously he's the
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: head coach and his resume speaks for himself. So whatever
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: he rolls with, we're ready to roll with.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: You just assume see them punt and try to pin
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: them down deep.
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: I'm sorry, Yeah, I'm no, I'm sorry. I didn't. Could
• 4:52
  Speaker 7: you repeat a question.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Doug, go ahead and punt and try to pin them
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: down deep. It's other other as opposers of going forward
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: fourth down.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I I'm mind, I say, try to answer that question. Uh,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: I guess whatever coach uh coach decides to do is
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: is whatever? Uh, we're all rolling with you know, so
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: we're all together and we're a tightening group.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Doesn't times Do you think that exhibits his belief in
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the defense, that you could make a stop at any
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: point in the field.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I believe coach believes in every single part of this
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: uh team.
• 5:22
  Speaker 9: I have a little off subject question for you, but
• 5:25
  Speaker 9: as a guy who played in New York, now you're here,
• 5:29
  Speaker 9: how much better does your mind feel after games playing
• 5:32
  Speaker 9: on this grass as opposed.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: To playing on the turf.
• 5:36
  Speaker 7: Listen, that's that's New York. You know.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: I had a great opportunity to hit there. But I'm
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: hearing my mom set. It's focused on here, so I
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: don't really think too much about it.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: Look, let me all the players prefer to play on grass.
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: I'm assuming right.
• 5:47
  Speaker 9: I mean there's I there's a movement now to kind
• 5:49
  Speaker 9: of get turf completely out of the game.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: I would you support that.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I think whatever the league needs to do to make
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: things safer for guys is what needs to happen.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: Alright, thanks boy. They can appreciate our de the desert
