Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: There we go.
- 0:01Speaker 2: Thomas had the deeperception just kind of what have you
- 0:04Speaker 2: seen out of him for these first four days and
- 0:06Speaker 2: kind of how is he looking back on the field.
- 0:08Speaker 3: The deep perception was awesome to see. It's great getting
- 0:11Speaker 3: back out there with the guys. He has such an
- 0:13Speaker 3: infectious energy that it affects not just the receivers, probably
- 0:15Speaker 3: the offensive line, coaches and everybody out there. He's continued
- 0:18Speaker 3: to progress from a route technique fundamental standpoint, but also
- 0:21Speaker 3: a knowledge of the offense and just the system in general.
- 0:24Speaker 3: So it's exciting to see and that development will hopefully continue.
- 0:26Speaker 4: What does he add?
- 0:27Speaker 5: I think he's right out there too.
- 0:30Speaker 4: What you want to get to the fie.
- 0:32Speaker 3: There's so much that he adds, and I think it
- 0:35Speaker 3: starts with, like I said, the energy in his play
- 0:38Speaker 3: style and what he brings.
- 0:40Speaker 4: To the huddle, which you don't always see on the field.
- 0:43Speaker 3: It's probably a little bit more apparent that when he
- 0:44Speaker 3: has the ball in his hands, he can create something.
- 0:46Speaker 4: Specially he can make guys miss.
- 0:48Speaker 3: He has a great awareness of defenders a space out
- 0:50Speaker 3: there on the field, but he also has great ball skills,
- 0:53Speaker 3: so those things kind of pop off the tape but
- 0:55Speaker 3: the other elements of it, with the details that he
- 0:59Speaker 3: tries to execute a run, assignments, alignments, splits, those stuff
- 1:03Speaker 3: don't always show up on tape, but those are impactful
- 1:06Speaker 3: really for the entire offense.
- 1:07Speaker 6: The offense has kind of been established after a year together,
- 1:10Speaker 6: and does that make it easier to kind of picture
- 1:12Speaker 6: where you see him fitting.
- 1:13Speaker 1: Into things on offense?
- 1:14Speaker 4: And certainly, I think not just for him, I think
- 1:16Speaker 4: for everybody.
- 1:17Speaker 3: We have a little bit clearer picture of who they
- 1:20Speaker 3: are and who we want to be and how we
- 1:22Speaker 3: as coaches can help bring the best out of them.
- 1:25Speaker 3: As you get a bigger and bigger sample size, that
- 1:27Speaker 3: becomes easier. That's one of the challenges of year one,
- 1:29Speaker 3: where you don't necessarily know where guys fit within our
- 1:32Speaker 3: system and really on us as coaches, it's more about
- 1:35Speaker 3: adapting our system to them. So the more reps we
- 1:39Speaker 3: get together and the more communication we have about how
- 1:41Speaker 3: they see things, how they see defenses, how they like
- 1:44Speaker 3: to approach this route, or how they like to maybe
- 1:46Speaker 3: approach a certain look, allows us to build things around
- 1:49Speaker 3: them and hopefully the quarterbacks, wide receivers, offensive line all
- 1:53Speaker 3: feel more comfortable, which accelerates their growth and play.
- 1:57Speaker 7: When you have continuity a quarterback play color court did
- 2:00Speaker 7: does that allow you to experiment more knowing you have
- 2:04Speaker 7: your greatest hits in your pocket or do you want
- 2:06Speaker 7: to pike those greatest.
- 2:07Speaker 4: Hits even greater. That's a great question.
- 2:09Speaker 3: It's always a tough challenge, especially going into the off
- 2:12Speaker 3: season when you're reevaluating what were we good at and
- 2:15Speaker 3: what could we be good at? And I think ultimately
- 2:17Speaker 3: you try to strike that balance of not throwing out
- 2:21Speaker 3: the good just to bring in some new experimentation. But
- 2:23Speaker 3: we're always going to try to continue to evolve. So
- 2:26Speaker 3: in some areas it might be something small like technique.
- 2:29Speaker 3: We may change one technique of the offensive line or
- 2:31Speaker 3: a footwork, But in some areas it might be a
- 2:33Speaker 3: totally different scheme or a totally different way of running
- 2:35Speaker 3: a scheme we ran previously. So we have our fair
- 2:38Speaker 3: share to our fair share of experimentation that we'll work
- 2:42Speaker 3: through throughout training camp. It might not all be at once,
- 2:44Speaker 3: but through the off season we have a plan that
- 2:46Speaker 3: we work through all these different ideas and things that
- 2:47Speaker 3: we want to work towards. But we're ultimately going to
- 2:50Speaker 3: balance that back and have that foundation to still rely
- 2:52Speaker 3: on regardless of where we go or where that evolution
- 2:54Speaker 3: ends up.
- 2:55Speaker 8: So on Wednesday that trying to put Nate with Tanner
- 2:59Speaker 8: and uncomfort situations give them a lot of reps early
- 3:02Speaker 8: What have you seen from them early returns through four practices?
- 3:05Speaker 3: The exciting thing is seeing how those guys embrace those
- 3:08Speaker 3: challenges because they both really attack it head on, and
- 3:11Speaker 3: it's not easy to go out there and be a
- 3:13Speaker 3: rookie and operate whether you're in a circumstance that's set
- 3:17Speaker 3: up for success or circumstance that's set up for a
- 3:20Speaker 3: challenging block, or a challenging route or challenging look. But
- 3:24Speaker 3: regardless of what those guys have been thrown have had
- 3:26Speaker 3: thrown at them, they've attacked it with full effort, full intensity,
- 3:30Speaker 3: and whether it's success or failure, they've come back and
- 3:34Speaker 3: grown from it and had the right attitude continue to
- 3:37Speaker 3: try to learn from things and get better every single day.
- 3:39Speaker 3: So that's what's exciting about seeing those guys in those
- 3:41Speaker 3: challenging situations is just the way they handle it, and
- 3:45Speaker 3: they love their teammates out there when they do it.
- 3:47Speaker 3: They're not blaming others, They're taking accountability. So to see
- 3:50Speaker 3: those things from young guys is really exciting.
- 3:52Speaker 4: Depicted it.
- 3:53Speaker 8: I know we asked you about Nate, but in terms
- 3:55Speaker 8: of Tanner kind of his origin story, where you maybe
- 3:58Speaker 8: first saw him, where he is now compared to where
- 4:01Speaker 8: you thought he would be on August.
- 4:02Speaker 4: Second year, that's a great question.
- 4:04Speaker 3: I try to stay out of the predictions and saying
- 4:08Speaker 3: a guy's going to be at this certain spot at
- 4:10Speaker 3: this certain time because it's a little bit outside of
- 4:12Speaker 3: our control.
- 4:13Speaker 4: And ultimately it's not going to do anything but get
- 4:14Speaker 4: us in trouble.
- 4:15Speaker 3: But I think where we saw what we saw on
- 4:18Speaker 3: tape from him was the ball skills and some of
- 4:20Speaker 3: the toughness and the growth. Another guy that got better
- 4:22Speaker 3: year over year over year, and even for our short
- 4:25Speaker 3: time with him here in the spring, you see a
- 4:27Speaker 3: guy from when he showed up and at his first
- 4:29Speaker 3: individual drills in rookie mini caamp to where he is now.
- 4:32Speaker 3: There's improvements really in every facet of his game.
- 4:34Speaker 4: Now.
- 4:34Speaker 3: It might not be obviously apparent, but there are little
- 4:38Speaker 3: things with how his stance is, how he's approaching blocks,
- 4:40Speaker 3: his understanding of what we're trying to attack in the
- 4:42Speaker 3: different run schemes. So his growth from a tight end
- 4:46Speaker 3: who might have been using certain ways when he was
- 4:48Speaker 3: at Ball State or even in high school, his experience
- 4:51Speaker 3: is totally unique. He's really grown to try to understand
- 4:55Speaker 3: the full offense and be able to fit that role
- 4:57Speaker 3: as a complete tight end, which is encouraging.
- 5:00Speaker 9: Eye opening what Parker has done since you guys have arrived.
- 5:04Speaker 9: I mean, is it do you end up back in
- 5:06Speaker 9: the office every day, like, hey, just.
- 5:08Speaker 4: Did it again?
- 5:08Speaker 5: Another play another? It seems like he makes it play fewer.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Yeah, like every ten minutes.
- 5:15Speaker 3: I think that's just about right. It's every ten minutes.
- 5:17Speaker 3: I don't want to say it's not eye opening, but
- 5:20Speaker 3: that's who Parker is.
- 5:21Speaker 4: So it's almost as if us, the coaches.
- 5:24Speaker 3: And players who have been around him know that that's
- 5:26Speaker 3: what Parker's made up.
- 5:27Speaker 4: So maybe not a surprise to us.
- 5:29Speaker 3: I certainly don't want to take it for granted that
- 5:30Speaker 3: we have a player of that capacity, But when he
- 5:34Speaker 3: goes out there and the balls in the air, I
- 5:35Speaker 3: have the utmost confidence that he's gonna come down with it.
- 5:37Speaker 3: So it's never a surprise when he's going up there
- 5:39Speaker 3: and making those acrobatic catches unbelievable body control and believability
- 5:42Speaker 3: track the ball, strong hands, strong at the point of attack.
- 5:44Speaker 3: So all those things are so consistently showing up that
- 5:48Speaker 3: like I said, you're smiling. You appreciate it, but you
- 5:50Speaker 3: don't take it for granted. But it's not a surprise.
- 5:52Speaker 5: It's back. One of our favorite questions from last year.
- 5:55Speaker 2: We've seen Anton on the left side of the offensive line.
- 5:58Speaker 2: I know Cole is where you having and all of it,
- 6:00Speaker 2: but just kind of what have you seen out of him?
- 6:02Speaker 3: Yeah, you said it one of our favorite questions last year. Unfortunately,
- 6:05Speaker 3: I'm going to give you the same answer as last year.
- 6:07Speaker 4: We're going to continue.
- 6:09Speaker 3: To mix and match guys and try to find the
- 6:11Speaker 3: best buy. We know that it's very rare for the
- 6:14Speaker 3: same five offensive line to start at the same exact
- 6:17Speaker 3: position for every single play for an entire season. For
- 6:19Speaker 3: whatever reason that may be. We're really fortunate to have
- 6:22Speaker 3: guys like Anton who are flexible, who can play left
- 6:25Speaker 3: and right. We've had other guys that practice play left right.
- 6:27Speaker 3: We've had guys play tackling guard. That is one of
- 6:30Speaker 3: those things that we talk about not taking part for granted.
- 6:32Speaker 3: I certainly don't take that, for granted, the depth that
- 6:34Speaker 3: we have at the old line position, not just Anton
- 6:36Speaker 3: but across the board, their flexibility and their willingness to
- 6:39Speaker 3: go in there and change positions.
- 6:40Speaker 4: Because that's not an easy thing to do.
- 6:42Speaker 3: You learn all those body patterns and those movement patterns
- 6:45Speaker 3: that left tackle or right tackle, and you learn the calls,
- 6:47Speaker 3: and you learn the looks on what that looks like,
- 6:49Speaker 3: and then one day later you're going out there and
- 6:51Speaker 3: you're changing everything that you got to do, and oh,
- 6:53Speaker 3: by the way, you're doing it against Treyvon Walker and
- 6:55Speaker 3: Josh ein z Allen.
- 6:56Speaker 4: So that's no easy task.
- 6:57Speaker 3: So it's a it's an absolute blessing for us as
- 7:00Speaker 3: which is to have guys like that pads going tomorrow.
- 7:03Speaker 5: So what are you going to be evaluating as you
- 7:05Speaker 5: guys going to kind of that next phase.
- 7:08Speaker 3: That's an interesting question because you certainly ramp up the
- 7:11Speaker 3: intensity and physicality a little bit when you put the
- 7:13Speaker 3: pads on, but it doesn't necessarily change what we're evaluating
- 7:17Speaker 3: because we're still evaluating physicality, and we're still evaluating hand
- 7:20Speaker 3: placement and striking and footwork and all of those details.
- 7:23Speaker 4: Whether we have.
- 7:24Speaker 3: Pads on or don't have pads on everything we do,
- 7:26Speaker 3: whether it's in a live rep on a team setting
- 7:29Speaker 3: or it's a walkthrough. We're building habits on the football field,
- 7:31Speaker 3: so we're evaluating all the same criteria.
- 7:34Speaker 4: The way it looks is just a little bit different.
- 7:36Speaker 3: Tell what you could be beating us man fast year
- 7:39Speaker 3: to beat, But do you see him benefiting from knowing.
- 7:42Speaker 5: The scheme more the strange?
- 7:46Speaker 4: I think so.
- 7:47Speaker 3: It was really impressive to see him coming last year
- 7:50Speaker 3: and pick up the system and his role as quickly
- 7:53Speaker 3: as he did. And I think a lot of people
- 7:54Speaker 3: notice the chemistry that him and Trevor had pretty instantaneously.
- 7:58Speaker 4: So it's nice now to be able to work.
- 7:59Speaker 3: On some of those finer details and get into some
- 8:02Speaker 3: of the depth of the offense now that he doesn't
- 8:04Speaker 3: have to just try to figure out where to line
- 8:06Speaker 3: up because he's showing up and having to play a
- 8:07Speaker 3: game four days later and then learn a brand new
- 8:09Speaker 3: game plan and play a game six days later. So
- 8:12Speaker 3: I think that benefits him, that benefits the quarterbacks, That
- 8:14Speaker 3: benefits everybody when they already know what they're doing and
- 8:17Speaker 3: now they can spend more time focusing on how to
- 8:19Speaker 3: do it.
- 8:20Speaker 7: A good option on third rout last year and this
- 8:23Speaker 7: year as well, and they did two minutes.
- 8:26Speaker 3: You probably start with the toughness in physicality. I think
- 8:29Speaker 3: that pops out on tape, his willingness to handle the
- 8:33Speaker 3: protection system mentally, and you combine that with his ability
- 8:36Speaker 3: to block linebackers. He would try to block a defense,
- 8:39Speaker 3: been one on one all day if you let him,
- 8:41Speaker 3: and that's the type of guy is so we love
- 8:42Speaker 3: that have him out there. And then you add the
- 8:44Speaker 3: rout ability. You probably saw a little bit more of
- 8:46Speaker 3: that in college where we didn't maybe get the most
- 8:48Speaker 3: out of it last year, but certainly something we're going
- 8:50Speaker 3: to continue to evolve and develop with him. So you
- 8:52Speaker 3: have that combination of a back who can be playing
- 8:56Speaker 3: at a high level and protection and playing at a
- 8:57Speaker 3: high level as a pass catcher.
- 8:59Speaker 4: That's a great optional.
- 9:00Speaker 3: They're down, Oh great, great, it's an understatement.
- 9:05Speaker 4: He brings an element.
- 9:06Speaker 3: I think Liam's made the point of staying on schedule
- 9:09Speaker 3: and keeping our kind of setting that that tempo of
- 9:13Speaker 3: our offense.
- 9:13Speaker 4: With the run game.
- 9:14Speaker 3: Specifically, I think the balance that he has in the
- 9:16Speaker 3: run game and the vision and the ability to have
- 9:18Speaker 3: strong runs and take two yard runs and make them
- 9:21Speaker 3: into five yard runs. Those may not seem like a
- 9:23Speaker 3: big deal, but it's such a big difference being able
- 9:25Speaker 3: to play on schedule and stay on scheduleing you look
- 9:27Speaker 3: at the success of our offense on schedule versus off schedule,
- 9:30Speaker 3: and really it's the same across the league.
- 9:31Speaker 4: It is drastically different.
- 9:32Speaker 3: So those abilities to find those creases, understand how defenses
- 9:36Speaker 3: are going to play out, flow over the top, flow
- 9:38Speaker 3: underneath different backers, different fronts, and even just really that
- 9:43Speaker 3: run style with great balance and strength at the point
- 9:45Speaker 3: of attack and at the point of contact. It adds
- 9:48Speaker 3: a lot for the offense line, but adds a lot
- 9:50Speaker 3: for the play call for Liam as well.
- 9:52Speaker 5: Actually, was that question about Rodriguez.
- 9:55Speaker 4: It was about sorry, I'm good.
- 9:59Speaker 1: CJ.
- 9:59Speaker 5: Williams and Josh Cammer, and those are young guys that
- 10:02Speaker 5: are flashed a lot.
- 10:02Speaker 4: Yeah, what have you.
- 10:03Speaker 5: Seen out of them for the early days?
- 10:04Speaker 3: Again, really they're very similar to the guys we saw
- 10:08Speaker 3: on tape. They're tough, smart, competitive guys that work really hard.
- 10:13Speaker 3: They're in here early, they're in here late. They're great
- 10:16Speaker 3: to be around. The guys love being around. They play tough,
- 10:18Speaker 3: they play all the cliches. I hate to say it,
- 10:21Speaker 3: but all the cliches that you want as a coach
- 10:23Speaker 3: and a player. They brought that and more every single day.
- 10:26Speaker 3: So you love to see that, and then you love
- 10:27Speaker 3: to see the consistcy on top of it. So when
- 10:29Speaker 3: you see them make plays, just like I talk about Parker,
- 10:31Speaker 3: it's not a surprise. I don't want to take it
- 10:33Speaker 3: for granted, but it's not a surprise because you see the.
- 10:34Speaker 4: Amount of work they put in.
- 10:36Speaker 5: Thank you, thank you, appreciate you.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Guys.
- 10:38Speaker 3: If you came in last year minute, he already did
- 10:40Speaker 3: the offense teams and.
- 10:41Speaker 5: How much Coruters Antler, you now everything off season.
- 10:45Speaker 4: I definitely didn't.
- 10:46Speaker 6: I'm not gonna lie I was. I told somebody other day.
- 10:48Speaker 6: I was just copy and pasting. Like they gave me
- 10:50Speaker 6: the answers, I put them down and that's what it was.
- 10:52Speaker 6: But now I understand why they call certain plays, what
- 10:54Speaker 6: they're looking for with certain plays, and that that helped
- 10:57Speaker 6: me on my routes a lot because I can get
- 10:58Speaker 6: to the right spot at the right time, and I
- 11:00Speaker 6: think that's ultimately Whatchever need out of us, not as
- 11:04Speaker 6: much thinking and playing football land thinking is tough.
- 11:06Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. When you got here last year, Travis,
- 11:09Speaker 1: you know, I just got hurt. What's it been like
- 11:11Speaker 1: kind of giving to know him? And what are your
- 11:12Speaker 1: impressions to seeing him? How your first role is?
- 11:14Speaker 6: I just like watching him play, and I've been watching
- 11:16Speaker 6: him for a long I feel like everybody been watching him.
- 11:18Speaker 6: He like the country sun, you know what I mean.
- 11:19Speaker 6: So we all just kind of watching him grow up
- 11:21Speaker 6: as a man, and I just think he's a really
- 11:23Speaker 6: good dude honestly, Like he fun to be around. He
- 11:25Speaker 6: always enjoy of energy, always laughing, always smiling. So it's
- 11:29Speaker 6: hard to be upset when he in the room, and
- 11:31Speaker 6: it's hard to be upset when he on the field,
- 11:33Speaker 6: you know what I mean. Like, so we win in
- 11:35Speaker 6: when he good?
- 11:35Speaker 3: Where will he helps the sea when he's out wherever
- 11:39Speaker 3: he wants.
- 11:40Speaker 6: He that type of talent, So I think whatever the
- 11:42Speaker 6: coaches ask him to do, whatever they designed for him,
- 11:44Speaker 6: ultimately will be okay. Because he's that caliber player. He
- 11:47Speaker 6: could play inside, he can play outside, he can give
- 11:49Speaker 6: you a break, he can go to defense, you know
- 11:51Speaker 6: what I mean. He probably could throw it to if
- 11:53Speaker 6: you need him too. So who knows for real? But
- 11:55Speaker 6: I'm sure whatever he put his mind to, he'll find
- 11:57Speaker 6: a way to get it done and help us a lot.
- 11:58Speaker 9: And you're a professional from player, You've seen a ton,
- 12:01Speaker 9: But does he even do stuff that you go vote
- 12:03Speaker 9: a little bit every once in the life.
- 12:05Speaker 6: It's just the spring, like, like the jumps. Even his
- 12:08Speaker 6: drops look good, Like I don't know how you how
- 12:10Speaker 6: you manage to make your drops look good, But I
- 12:12Speaker 6: kind of want to take that from him, even though
- 12:14Speaker 6: you know what I mean, like it'd be something. But
- 12:16Speaker 6: now he's just dynamic.
- 12:17Speaker 1: Man. He just fun to watch.
- 12:18Speaker 6: And I feel like the game gonna be in good
- 12:19Speaker 6: hands if we keep getting players like that coming into
- 12:21Speaker 6: the league and we take care of him, you know
- 12:23Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Like not put too much pressure on
- 12:25Speaker 6: him and just help grow them the right way. I
- 12:27Speaker 6: think the NFL being good hands.
- 12:29Speaker 9: He's already talked about that VPG, but he was just
- 12:31Speaker 9: mentioning who you guys, personality or a lot of like
- 12:34Speaker 9: takes a lot from you much have you seen men
- 12:37Speaker 9: broke from him since your rival and specifically in this offseason.
- 12:40Speaker 6: I mean, honestly, man, he's having a I think he's
- 12:44Speaker 6: having a great camp so far.
- 12:45Speaker 1: And it's just built off the spring.
- 12:46Speaker 6: He had one of the better springs that I've seen
- 12:48Speaker 6: of a younger guy since I've been in the league.
- 12:50Speaker 6: But like he if he's just doing half of what
- 12:53Speaker 6: he's doing now, I think he would be in a
- 12:54Speaker 6: good spot. Like he's having a great camp. I'm really
- 12:56Speaker 6: just proud of him and all the young guys. They
- 12:58Speaker 6: come in, they real professional. They all come in and
- 13:00Speaker 6: they doing a great job.
- 13:01Speaker 5: So I heard the deep ball to him because he's
- 13:04Speaker 5: so fast.
- 13:04Speaker 9: I mean, he's a challenging for keeping the quarterback side
- 13:08Speaker 9: of the way.
- 13:08Speaker 1: I would assume.
- 13:09Speaker 6: So if somebody like, even when he don't look like
- 13:11Speaker 6: he trying, he's still moving. So I'm assuming it gotta
- 13:15Speaker 6: be tough, or you gotta have a cannon on you,
- 13:17Speaker 6: you know what I mean, like something that can really
- 13:18Speaker 6: get it down the field at all times. Because he
- 13:21Speaker 6: could roll effortless, effortless. See I couldn't say that, but
- 13:24Speaker 6: y'all know what I mean. He got it out somewhere.
- 13:26Speaker 9: So aside from the more complete knowledge of the offense,
- 13:30Speaker 9: where are you better?
- 13:31Speaker 6: Yeah, as a player right now, like the understanding, Like
- 13:35Speaker 6: like I said, as long as I understand why you
- 13:37Speaker 6: call him to play. I know the time and where
- 13:39Speaker 6: I need to get there, and I think that's huge
- 13:41Speaker 6: for me playing quarterback. I always want to be in
- 13:43Speaker 6: the right spot at the right time, because it don't
- 13:45Speaker 6: matter how good the route it is. If I can't
- 13:47Speaker 6: get there at the right time, I'm not getting the
- 13:48Speaker 6: ball and I'm not helping the quarterback.
- 13:50Speaker 2: So's he's a certain yell and say, your kind of
- 13:52Speaker 2: track last year, some stability coming in with the offense
- 13:56Speaker 2: that functioned that it feels very stable.
- 13:59Speaker 5: M I took a situation for you that long.
- 14:01Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, it is, but that's all outside. Honestly,
- 14:04Speaker 6: I'm a little bit more secure on the inside. So
- 14:06Speaker 6: I'm just happy like the world is finally matching that.
- 14:08Speaker 6: But it's another day. I just gotta show up and
- 14:11Speaker 6: do my job regardless.
- 14:12Speaker 3: At the end of the day, this looks like a
- 14:14Speaker 3: very balanced receiving court where you have four or five.
- 14:16Speaker 4: Guys hitting them eight or nine halvd yards. Do you
- 14:19Speaker 4: guys see it that way and do you embrace seven
- 14:23Speaker 4: oh the yards?
- 14:23Speaker 6: I really don't know, honestly, because all the balance. I
- 14:26Speaker 6: would say that that's the best way to describe, But honestly,
- 14:28Speaker 6: I think we got a very well balanced room, and
- 14:30Speaker 6: that's top down like rookies, undrafted guys like I think
- 14:33Speaker 6: all the way through. We got guys who are smart
- 14:35Speaker 6: first and foremost, who understand what they're doing, and then
- 14:38Speaker 6: second can make a bunch of plays.
- 14:39Speaker 1: So I think we're in a good spot.
- 14:41Speaker 5: Guys, come on tomorrow. What does that look like mentally
- 14:44Speaker 5: switching that flip? Like is there okay? Now we can
- 14:48Speaker 5: be a little bit more intense or.
- 14:49Speaker 1: As that work.
- 14:50Speaker 6: I mean, I'm gonna just tell the guys be aggressive
- 14:52Speaker 6: first and then if you gotta pull it back, it's
- 14:54Speaker 6: easier to go backwards then to try to go out there,
- 14:56Speaker 6: fill it out, get hitting your mouth and now you
- 14:58Speaker 6: think you're about to go hit somebody. It's not gonna
- 14:59Speaker 6: work like that.
- 15:00Speaker 1: So be aggressive first and let them pull you back.
- 15:04Speaker 4: How what's the maturity level you felt about?
- 15:07Speaker 9: This grew coming off last year and I think Williams mentioned, hey,
- 15:11Speaker 9: want to get practicing like you were by the end
- 15:13Speaker 9: of last year, being closer you guys out if.
- 15:15Speaker 5: You've early stayed, just feel down, and that kind of
- 15:17Speaker 5: spoke on it a little bit.
- 15:18Speaker 6: But the guys really have been taking their jobs very,
- 15:21Speaker 6: very like very serious, Like they're a real professional. I'm
- 15:23Speaker 6: talking about BTJ Parker always going to be who he is.
- 15:26Speaker 6: Like all the guys, man, they know exactly what they're doing.
- 15:29Speaker 6: They helped me more than I feel like I'm helping
- 15:31Speaker 6: them right now. So that's just a testament to them.
- 15:33Speaker 6: Like the young guys are doing really great, and I
- 15:35Speaker 6: just think they ready, like they ready to play ball.
- 15:36Speaker 6: They ready to get out there and show what they could.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Do for you. Mention young guys. I see CJ.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Willis a guy who's literally made a play every day
- 15:43Speaker 2: since he got drafted.
- 15:44Speaker 5: Just what have you seen out of him? What you
- 15:46Speaker 5: just said on him?
- 15:47Speaker 6: Made a play every day, And I think the smart
- 15:49Speaker 6: part is really what stands out for Like I don't
- 15:52Speaker 6: think he's had a mistake, and if he has, he
- 15:54Speaker 6: definitely got less than I do, you know what I mean.
- 15:55Speaker 6: So he's doing a great job and I just expect
- 15:58Speaker 6: him to continue to do a great job and we
- 16:00Speaker 6: gonna get better technique wise, and other than that, he
- 16:03Speaker 6: gonna be he gonna be fine. He gonna be good
- 16:04Speaker 6: this week.
- 16:05Speaker 5: You get yourself up the stakes at all? Are you
- 16:08Speaker 5: way past that for this time?
- 16:09Speaker 1: Yet? Yeah?
- 16:10Speaker 6: I would say, I beat myself up, but I don't
- 16:11Speaker 6: have a problem beat myself up, like i'm'a be.
- 16:14Speaker 1: I like to be tough on myself.
- 16:15Speaker 6: That's kind of a lot of people like, got me here,
- 16:17Speaker 6: so i'm'a shake back, but in the moment, i'm'a let
- 16:20Speaker 6: myself here have it too.
- 16:21Speaker 2: You you mentioned, uh during the off season, how Trevor
- 16:24Speaker 2: can throw a route and you can run around and
- 16:26Speaker 2: you guys are just in scene and that's kind of
- 16:28Speaker 2: for the whole simper. Have you kind of seen him
- 16:30Speaker 2: continue that in the early part of County, I.
- 16:32Speaker 6: Would say so, But that's a communication thing, I think,
- 16:34Speaker 6: like I think he does a great job of communicating,
- 16:36Speaker 6: almost over communicating, like we know exactly what he's looking for.
- 16:39Speaker 6: I understands timing now, So I would say so, appreciate
- 16:44Speaker 6: that
