- 0:09Speaker 2: whole training camp for this moment coming up Sunday, and
- 0:11Speaker 2: I think we're all down there ready to go, getting
- 0:13Speaker 2: ahead of the schedule.
- 0:14Speaker 3: Now we're ready to go compete Sunday.
- 0:16Speaker 1: How has been a lake at dall Now? You gotta
- 0:18Speaker 1: have know him to hear around here for secular.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Now, it's been real good, you know, I I say
- 0:23Speaker 3: it all the time.
- 0:23Speaker 2: I feel like he brought that old school football something
- 0:26Speaker 2: that you know, there's no shots or anything, but I
- 0:28Speaker 2: feel I feel like it's been missed for a little bit.
- 0:31Speaker 3: You know.
- 0:31Speaker 2: We bring the physicality back and bring the mentality back
- 0:33Speaker 2: of playing grown man football for all four quarters.
- 0:36Speaker 1: And Jared, you've got a mix of vets and young
- 0:39Speaker 1: guys on the line and on the defense in general.
- 0:41Speaker 1: Talk a little bit about that. That mix of experience
- 0:44Speaker 1: and youth.
- 0:45Speaker 3: I think I think it's good. You know, we got
- 0:47Speaker 3: some good guys that can go out here.
- 0:48Speaker 2: It's some young guys to go ahead, run all day
- 0:51Speaker 2: and then just listen to us talking bark at him sometimes,
- 0:53Speaker 2: but uh, you know, it's a it's a up to
- 0:55Speaker 2: us as veterans to bring those young guys alone. Now,
- 0:58Speaker 2: I'm just teaching the game and teaching what we know
- 1:00Speaker 2: the same and we all been through the same cycle
- 1:02Speaker 2: and it's the same thing, just repeat itself. But I
- 1:04Speaker 2: think you know, the better group you got for young guys,
- 1:06Speaker 2: the easier it is, cause they could listen, go out
- 1:08Speaker 2: here and work hard to produce.
- 1:09Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I for what for this? Oh? I'm excited.
- 1:14Speaker 2: I don't seen what he could do, and it's time
- 1:15Speaker 2: for him to go out there and show the world.
- 1:17Speaker 2: There's no pressure on him to go out there and
- 1:19Speaker 2: do anything outside the ordinary. If he should let the
- 1:21Speaker 2: game call to himself, he's gonna make a lot of
- 1:23Speaker 2: players the season.
- 1:23Speaker 3: I'm excited to see it myself.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Try a working point in your career or on school football.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Did this is your coach? Hap kind of a small
- 1:30Speaker 1: than talent?
- 1:31Speaker 3: Uh? I think he does. I think he does the
- 1:33Speaker 3: way we practice.
- 1:34Speaker 2: I think it shows that you know what's going here,
- 1:36Speaker 2: you know, putting the pads on, you know, getting a
- 1:38Speaker 2: little rasadasi here and there, getting a little rough around
- 1:41Speaker 2: the edges. Practice gets intent sometimes, but that's what you
- 1:43Speaker 2: need as a football team. You know, it's a grown
- 1:45Speaker 2: man's sport.
- 1:47Speaker 1: At what point in your career did you go from
- 1:48Speaker 1: that young guy run around all the time that you
- 1:50Speaker 1: got young.
- 1:50Speaker 2: In the place. For me, I think it was pretty early.
- 1:54Speaker 2: I think it was the game my either my rookie
- 1:56Speaker 2: or my second year. We were playing San fran and
- 1:58Speaker 2: I I missed up a play at be was talking
- 2:00Speaker 2: about the whole entire time, and then you know, I
- 2:03Speaker 2: got chewed out by my vest I think that's when I.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Hit the turning cut, turning curb. Excuse me of learning
- 2:07Speaker 3: how to be a pro.
- 2:08Speaker 2: And I took the approach, you know, just making sure
- 2:10Speaker 2: I get in the playbook, making sure I'm on pointing
- 2:12Speaker 2: my plays, and making sure I'm preparing my mind and
- 2:14Speaker 2: my body every day each week.
- 2:16Speaker 1: How long did Mike Benner remind you that?
- 2:18Speaker 3: I I think still to this day, they don't let
- 2:21Speaker 3: it go him and Cliff.
- 2:23Speaker 1: And Jaron uh the Broncos bringing some good run blocking
- 2:26Speaker 1: and some good running backs. Uh yack struggle defending the run.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Last year he talked about how you guys are gonna change.
- 2:31Speaker 3: That this season. Yeah, I think we just go out
- 2:33Speaker 3: there and instacute our plays.
- 2:35Speaker 2: You know, it's the league. Stuff happens. But I think
- 2:37Speaker 2: we're gonna be pretty stout, a pretty good. I'm not
- 2:39Speaker 2: gonna speaking here. I said, we all go out there
- 2:41Speaker 2: and instacute our plays and just go out there try
- 2:43Speaker 2: to stop what they're trying to bring in Sunday.
- 2:45Speaker 1: How much is Jonathan Hankin's help in that run defense?
- 2:48Speaker 3: Oh a lot.
- 2:49Speaker 2: You know, we vendom got a lot of experience. I
- 2:51Speaker 2: think it's what year twelve for him. Uh, he's played
- 2:52Speaker 2: a lot of football, so the game is really slow
- 2:54Speaker 2: for him and he could play those blocks and he
- 2:56Speaker 2: can help us out by talking, talking and communicating about
- 2:59Speaker 2: what he sees before to play. Y, you guys talked
- 3:01Speaker 2: a lot about communication on defense throughout throughout.
- 3:03Speaker 1: How do you feel like where where that is now is?
- 3:05Speaker 3: I think it's good.
- 3:06Speaker 2: I mean, if you guys can just hear what goes
- 3:08Speaker 2: on that field, it's a lot of talking and you
- 3:10Speaker 2: gotta listen. You gotta be cute and uh, even if
- 3:12Speaker 2: it's up front, you know, we got a lot of
- 3:13Speaker 2: talking to do as well.
- 3:15Speaker 3: They all correlates with each other.
- 3:16Speaker 2: That's how We practice to out when we get in
- 3:18Speaker 2: through the morning, through meetings, and it carries over to
- 3:20Speaker 2: the practice field.
