- 0:00Speaker 1: We understand it's a hard it's hard to win in
- 0:02Speaker 1: this league up or whatever, whatever the odds say. We
- 0:06Speaker 1: know we have a really good opponent coming in here
- 0:07Speaker 1: in our house, and we gotta protect our house. So
- 0:09Speaker 1: that's the way we're looking at it.
- 0:11Speaker 2: When it's the team that a lot of people expect
- 0:14Speaker 2: to be contending for a super Bowl spot. On the
- 0:16Speaker 2: other side, it's a chance for you guys to kind
- 0:18Speaker 2: of send a message and see where you stay.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Mean.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I'm so against sending the mess, like
- 0:24Speaker 1: I just we just want to go out and win.
- 0:26Speaker 1: But this is a playoff caliber team, it's a championship
- 0:29Speaker 1: caliber team, and obviously for us to get where we
- 0:32Speaker 1: want to go, we have to beat these teams. We
- 0:33Speaker 1: have to dominate these games and come out with wins.
- 0:35Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a great opportunity for us to go
- 0:37Speaker 1: up against, honestly, a super Bowl caliber team.
- 0:40Speaker 3: Is there any frustration on your part about not finding
- 0:43Speaker 3: the end zone yet?
- 0:44Speaker 1: Nah, that's gonna come. It's gonna come, obviously. Uh Uh.
- 0:49Speaker 1: We have to be better in the red zone in general,
- 0:50Speaker 1: so that's obviously a goal of ours. It's just score
- 0:54Speaker 1: more points in the red zone.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Uh.
- 0:55Speaker 1: But my day will come, for sure.
- 0:57Speaker 4: It has been so difficult down there.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Just doing not us, not doing the little things right.
- 1:02Speaker 1: I fumbled the ball last week. We had chance at points,
- 1:06Speaker 1: I had to turnover in the red zone and then zone.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Like we're just doing just kind of shooting ourselves on
- 1:13Speaker 1: the foot down there, and luckily our defenses really playing
- 1:16Speaker 1: well and in a sense bailing south at times. But
- 1:20Speaker 1: I think we're on the right page as offense and
- 1:22Speaker 1: we have the right mentality to go get it right.
- 1:24Speaker 2: Just more time to come up with a really good celebration.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Right, yeah, uh yeah, the pressure's on for sure, going
- 1:29Speaker 1: this long, I have to do something and I'm not
- 1:30Speaker 1: really a good dancer, so I gotta think about it.
- 1:33Speaker 5: But y'all see, whatever happens happens.
- 1:36Speaker 2: How important is it to keep up the same momentum
- 1:38Speaker 2: you guys had to get to that six and two
- 1:39Speaker 2: start the rest of the way.
- 1:42Speaker 5: You know, we just gotta finish what we started here.
- 1:44Speaker 6: We're six and two right now, top of the AFC South,
- 1:47Speaker 6: and you know, we just gotta continue to come out here,
- 1:51Speaker 6: prepare the right way, and you know, as the season
- 1:53Speaker 6: goes on, you know, it looks like our schedules, getting
- 1:55Speaker 6: a u a bit just you know, in the nitty
- 1:57Speaker 6: gritty of it. So you know, we got some we
- 1:59Speaker 6: got the tire. Where is that AFC North that we
- 2:04Speaker 6: have to play, so you know you gotta go ahead
- 2:06Speaker 6: to hear with those guys. Still got some divisional opponents
- 2:08Speaker 6: here left, so it'll be it'll be good.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Sty momentum.
- 2:13Speaker 5: Does that carry through the off week?
- 2:16Speaker 6: Oh?
- 2:16Speaker 5: Absolutely, you know, I feel like it.
- 2:18Speaker 6: It's a little bit better because you get to, you know,
- 2:22Speaker 6: really do do what we did in the first half
- 2:25Speaker 6: of the season, go out, dominate, get a break, and
- 2:27Speaker 6: then come back and you know, uh, just continue to
- 2:31Speaker 6: just like I said, just just put your foot on
- 2:33Speaker 6: the pedal and strive tow towards where we're trying to go.
- 2:36Speaker 2: What y'all have been able to do out on the road,
- 2:38Speaker 2: Does that like speak to the mentality of this team,
- 2:41Speaker 2: like the the way y'all have been able to be
- 2:43Speaker 2: with those road warriors.
- 2:44Speaker 6: Yeah absolutely, I would definitely say that that's the sign
- 2:46Speaker 6: of a mentally tough team. But I will say, you know,
- 2:50Speaker 6: our home record doesn't look as good, so we have
- 2:52Speaker 6: to start the waiting from our home crowd.
- 2:55Speaker 7: How much has that been.
- 2:56Speaker 3: A sticking point this week.
- 2:59Speaker 6: I I don't know, it's it's been too much of
- 3:01Speaker 6: a sticking point. But you know, you know, the guys
- 3:03Speaker 6: know we're we're we're a really good road team. And
- 3:09Speaker 6: but the reality of this league, you're not gonna be
- 3:11Speaker 6: in the road every week, so you gotta come home
- 3:13Speaker 6: and why not be able to win in front of
- 3:15Speaker 6: you know, a great fan base and you know, do
- 3:18Speaker 6: it for a a great city.
- 3:19Speaker 8: What is the challenges of McCaffrey just lining up everywhere
- 3:22Speaker 8: and being effective everywhere he lines?
- 3:25Speaker 5: Yeah, he's a good he's a really good player. Uh
- 3:26Speaker 5: he can l uh line out wide.
- 3:29Speaker 6: He creates matchup problems with you know, uh running back
- 3:32Speaker 6: some safeties and you know, he's a player who can
- 3:35Speaker 6: run the ball out of the backfield, get the ball
- 3:37Speaker 6: on the edge, run through the teeth of the defense,
- 3:39Speaker 6: and be able to line up and run whatever he
- 3:43Speaker 6: runs out in the slot or whether it's at the
- 3:45Speaker 6: number one position.
- 3:47Speaker 4: To go along with that too. Just one of those top.
- 3:49Speaker 6: Tight ends the right in the c Yeah, yeah, absolutely,
- 3:54Speaker 6: so I would definitely say, you know, he it a
- 3:58Speaker 6: lot of tight ends in this league. They don't really
- 3:59Speaker 6: like the block and you know, he's completely opposite of
- 4:01Speaker 6: that as he loves to do it. So you know
- 4:03Speaker 6: that that that's something you you have to take into
- 4:06Speaker 6: consideration when you are playing him as well. You know,
- 4:08Speaker 6: uh he sells a lot of his blocking and able
- 4:10Speaker 6: to get out on routes and you just gotta bring
- 4:12Speaker 6: your hard hat.
- 4:13Speaker 3: So what do you make of this notion that block
- 4:15Speaker 3: Party is coming back down to Earth and people are
- 4:18Speaker 3: figuring him out.
- 4:20Speaker 6: I mean, it's my first time I would face block
- 4:22Speaker 6: brock Party, and I mean I think he's done a
- 4:26Speaker 6: good job. I I don't know how he's I mean,
- 4:27Speaker 6: I been watching film.
- 4:28Speaker 5: He's been doing a a really good job for his team.
- 4:31Speaker 6: And uh so I wouldn't say, you know, he he
- 4:35Speaker 6: he's kind of went off of Earth or anything like that.
- 4:37Speaker 4: I would.
- 4:37Speaker 5: I would definitely say, you know, players have their games.
- 4:39Speaker 6: You know, every dog has his day and and uh we'll.
- 4:42Speaker 5: We'll see how this Sunday shapes.
- 4:44Speaker 3: It is maybe a elementary question, but of all the
- 4:47Speaker 3: teams you face, does this one have the most weapons?
- 4:49Speaker 3: And perhaps you guys have to man mark account for
- 4:52Speaker 3: the most guys on the field.
- 4:54Speaker 5: Yeah, I would I would definitely say, yeah, my career.
- 4:59Speaker 6: Probably this is probably the the this and when Target
- 5:02Speaker 6: Hill was over with Kansas City and kore uh Kareem
- 5:05Speaker 6: Hunt was over there as well, so that that was
- 5:06Speaker 6: another team I had to deal with over there. But
- 5:08Speaker 6: this is probably number one, if not too And it'll
- 5:12Speaker 6: be a good matchup. We have guys, they have guys,
- 5:14Speaker 6: and it'll be fun.
- 5:17Speaker 9: The uh Christian caffrick talk, I was talking about his
- 5:19Speaker 9: explosives to play making ability.
- 5:21Speaker 10: How much is going up against y'all like Cravesey team
- 5:23Speaker 10: and he's just even just explosively.
- 5:25Speaker 4: Has those dynamic abilities helped you guys how you point.
- 5:28Speaker 6: In the Sunday, Yeah, he does a lot of the
- 5:30Speaker 6: things that you know, Christian McCaffrey is able to do
- 5:31Speaker 6: as well. Eteen is coming on really strong right now,
- 5:34Speaker 6: and you know he's stepping into that road to where
- 5:37Speaker 6: we need him to beat and he's able to catch
- 5:41Speaker 6: the ball at backfield, uh, run through the teeth of
- 5:44Speaker 6: the defense as you guys can see. I wanna say
- 5:45Speaker 6: he's like number one and broken tackles, so he's able
- 5:48Speaker 6: to do a lot for us. Man and heard that
- 5:51Speaker 6: with a bunch of other guys out you know, in
- 5:53Speaker 6: space and then you know, our offense looks pretty good.
- 5:56Speaker 8: Shelf scout, midway point on defense, guy's great against Aron,
- 5:59Speaker 8: third downs grade, takeaways number one?
- 6:02Speaker 4: What needs to improve? What can be better for this
- 6:04Speaker 4: defense down stretch?
- 6:05Speaker 5: I just think everything.
- 6:06Speaker 6: You know, you wanted to always try to come out
- 6:07Speaker 6: here and be number one in every category. If we're
- 6:09Speaker 6: not number one and you need to improve on it, so,
- 6:12Speaker 6: I mean, whatever, we're not number one.
- 6:14Speaker 5: I don't really know. We don't really look at the
- 6:15Speaker 5: stats like that.
- 6:16Speaker 6: We do know we number one and takeaways right now,
- 6:18Speaker 6: but obviously we want to stay there and you know
- 6:21Speaker 6: every other category.
- 6:21Speaker 5: Get it up to park.
- 6:22Speaker 2: You've been on a couple of teams in Arizona that
- 6:24Speaker 2: got off to fast starts and then slowed down in
- 6:27Speaker 2: the second half of the season. What did you learn
- 6:30Speaker 2: from those experiences?
- 6:31Speaker 10: Yeah, just all the meaning field games are in November December,
- 6:37Speaker 10: and those are the games that you got to win.
- 6:38Speaker 10: And you know, we've entered that territory. You know, the
- 6:41Speaker 10: beginning of November is the second half of the season.
- 6:43Speaker 10: We kind of learned it last year too. Nothing mattered
- 6:46Speaker 10: what we did before the bye, and then you know,
- 6:48Speaker 10: we had all the opportunities to make the season what
- 6:50Speaker 10: we wanted to make it.
- 6:51Speaker 7: So it's just all about not.
- 6:53Speaker 10: Losing sight, you know what our end goal is, and
- 6:55Speaker 10: you know, just carrying on the momentum and you know
- 6:57Speaker 10: what got us to this point. And I think it's
- 7:00Speaker 10: just you know, kind of clearing our minds and you know,
- 7:02Speaker 10: it's basically a whole new season, so you know, we
- 7:04Speaker 10: get an opportunity to start it off the way we
- 7:06Speaker 10: want to.
- 7:06Speaker 2: You mentioned how the team finished the year last season.
- 7:09Speaker 2: Last year, this is when y'all really got hot. You're
- 7:11Speaker 2: already six and two right now. Is there's still another
- 7:13Speaker 2: level that this team can take it to one hundred percent.
- 7:15Speaker 10: You know, we talked about it before, you know, going
- 7:17Speaker 10: into the buys. You know, if you look at us offensively,
- 7:20Speaker 10: you know, I think we've only really put one game
- 7:22Speaker 10: you know together, you know, as a whole unit. And
- 7:26Speaker 10: you know the fact that our defense has been playing
- 7:28Speaker 10: the way they've been playing, you know, keeping us in
- 7:29Speaker 10: the games, and we've been able to score enough.
- 7:31Speaker 7: And that's how you learn how to win. That's what
- 7:33Speaker 7: good teams do, you know.
- 7:35Speaker 10: But it for us offensively, we need to hold up
- 7:36Speaker 10: our end and that's you know, becoming the offense.
- 7:39Speaker 7: That we can be in the second half of the season.
- 7:40Speaker 10: You know the Niners defense, I mean the coordinators changed,
- 7:43Speaker 10: but you have a sense of some of the people
- 7:45Speaker 10: over there.
- 7:46Speaker 5: How do you beat them? How do you how do
- 7:47Speaker 5: you think a defense.
- 7:48Speaker 10: That has such a great pass rush and Tred Warner
- 7:50Speaker 10: and stars at every level, how do.
- 7:53Speaker 5: You succeed against that?
- 7:54Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, I think it's it starts with being efficient,
- 7:56Speaker 10: being able to establish the run, and then you know,
- 7:59Speaker 10: take opportunity. In the past game, you know, they do
- 8:02Speaker 10: a great job of limiting explosives things, just taking what
- 8:05Speaker 10: they give us, not getting too greedy, and just making
- 8:08Speaker 10: sure that you know, we're not giving the ball to them.
- 8:10Speaker 10: You know, they have a great offense as well, and
- 8:12Speaker 10: you know one that likes to hold on to the ball.
- 8:14Speaker 10: So for us, it's just taking advantage of the opportunities
- 8:16Speaker 10: and we do get the ball and just putting ourselves
- 8:18Speaker 10: in good positions to score poys.
- 8:22Speaker 2: You guys have been on the road a lot, doing
- 8:24Speaker 2: a lot of good things on the road, almost like
- 8:25Speaker 2: a personality trade of the team at this point. How
- 8:27Speaker 2: do you carry that over to the home field.
- 8:29Speaker 7: Yeah, it's just you know, approaching it the same way.
- 8:31Speaker 10: And you know, when we're on the road, it's bringing
- 8:33Speaker 10: your own energy, you know, because when you're on the own,
- 8:36Speaker 10: the team is all we got. You know, you're in
- 8:37Speaker 10: hostile territory. So you know, for us, it's just bringing
- 8:40Speaker 10: our energy, coming there with a chip. And you know,
- 8:42Speaker 10: now we're we're at home. You know, we got our
- 8:44Speaker 10: fans behind us, and you know we got to use
- 8:46Speaker 10: that to our advantage, you know, because they've been nothing
- 8:49Speaker 10: but great and it should be advantage for us playing
- 8:51Speaker 10: at home. So you know, it's good that we were
- 8:53Speaker 10: able to get a win at home the last time
- 8:54Speaker 10: we were here, and you know we're looking to build
- 8:56Speaker 10: off of that.
- 8:57Speaker 11: Would you welcome negotiating your people negotiating on your back
- 9:00Speaker 11: or would you rather just wait till the end of
- 9:02Speaker 11: the season.
- 9:02Speaker 12: At this point, I'm just here to play football each
- 9:05Speaker 12: week and uh and and play the best my ability.
- 9:09Speaker 11: Do the numbers catch your attention though?
- 9:12Speaker 12: Of course, you know obviously, you know you always want
- 9:14Speaker 12: to see where the market's at, especially in my position.
- 9:17Speaker 12: Obviously I see the I see where those guys got paid,
- 9:20Speaker 12: and it's like, okay, you know, that's that's that's that's
- 9:24Speaker 12: that's nice, But you know, for for what I want
- 9:27Speaker 12: to do this year and the things I want to achieve, man,
- 9:29Speaker 12: it's you know, you know that don't settle and h
- 9:33Speaker 12: So if I continue to find ways to be successful,
- 9:36Speaker 12: then you know, good things may come. But you know,
- 9:39Speaker 12: obviously it got goals and aspirations and things I want.
- 9:42Speaker 4: To achieve this year.
- 9:43Speaker 5: I want to win the Super Bowl.
- 9:45Speaker 12: So if I can continue to play at a high level,
- 9:48Speaker 12: you know, motivate, elevate everybody else around us to to
- 9:51Speaker 12: get to that point, then let's do it.
- 9:55Speaker 11: When the forty nine ers are healthy, mean, okay, athlete
- 9:58Speaker 11: and Dvoda, how taxing are they mentally to defend?
- 10:02Speaker 7: Because they can do soon less, they're still versable.
- 10:05Speaker 12: I mean, I think if we as a front continue
- 10:08Speaker 12: to do what we do, stop the run. I think
- 10:10Speaker 12: if everybody you know be in their gaps. We play
- 10:13Speaker 12: gaps on football. Obviously, they like do a lot of
- 10:15Speaker 12: you know, different formations to get but it's when you
- 10:18Speaker 12: look at it, it's the same thing. So we just
- 10:20Speaker 12: got to be gaps. Sound really be physically upfront. Take
- 10:24Speaker 12: the fight to them. Obviously they want to be a
- 10:25Speaker 12: physical front. Uh, set the tone with the tight ends
- 10:28Speaker 12: as well, and obviously they have one of the best
- 10:30Speaker 12: backs who can see all the who can see all
- 10:32Speaker 12: the whole. So if we can stay disciplined and stay
- 10:35Speaker 12: within our our scheme of the defense, I think coach
- 10:38Speaker 12: Carwell has a great game plan of how we can
- 10:40Speaker 12: stop these plays that they run successfully. If we could
- 10:43Speaker 12: continue to do that, man and those opportunities to rush
- 10:45Speaker 12: the passer are gonna be are gonna be really high.
- 10:49Speaker 12: And but it just starts up be a physical upfront
- 10:53Speaker 12: all right.
- 10:53Speaker 4: Mid season assessment of this offense, we heard a lot
- 10:56Speaker 4: of third down, we heard a lot of red zone.
- 10:58Speaker 8: But going in about it, right, that could be better.
- 11:06Speaker 13: I think we could just be more efficient in every category,
- 11:10Speaker 13: just you know, clean it all up, run game past game,
- 11:14Speaker 13: and I definitely think.
- 11:16Speaker 4: The offensive moved the ball way better cause we just.
- 11:18Speaker 13: You know, make everything a little bit more cleaner, dillar
- 11:22Speaker 13: into the moment more and make the plays.
- 11:23Speaker 4: I think it will flow even better and.
- 11:25Speaker 13: Be better for obviously for our offense, our team, and
- 11:28Speaker 13: our defense.
- 11:29Speaker 4: Are you happy with your first half and what's left
- 11:31Speaker 4: for you?
- 11:32Speaker 5: Uh?
- 11:33Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm happy. I Mean I ain't gonna sit here
- 11:35Speaker 4: and say I'm mad.
- 11:35Speaker 13: I'm blessed, you know, be back in the league, playing
- 11:38Speaker 13: on a good team.
- 11:39Speaker 4: We winning, but it could be better. I mean, definitely.
- 11:44Speaker 13: Want to be doing you know, amazing things like what
- 11:48Speaker 13: I know I can. But we had another half of
- 11:50Speaker 13: the season one day at a time. Got a big
- 11:53Speaker 13: game this week. I look forward to being out there
- 11:55Speaker 13: and having my talents at its best.
- 12:00Speaker 8: Some challenges ahead of here the next three, well three,
- 12:02Speaker 8: let's start with the home games, right three. The next
- 12:04Speaker 8: four are here at home after five and five stadiums
- 12:07Speaker 8: going into the Buy what it's gonna be like to
- 12:09Speaker 8: defend home field.
- 12:11Speaker 4: It's gonna be good.
- 12:12Speaker 5: You know.
- 12:12Speaker 13: Obviously we haven't been the best, but we got one,
- 12:16Speaker 13: and it's somewhere to build.
- 12:20Speaker 4: Uh, we gotta we got momentum.
- 12:21Speaker 13: We got momentum here, and uh, I think we got
- 12:24Speaker 13: ourself in a good position that you know, we had
- 12:27Speaker 13: a hard you know first half of being.
- 12:30Speaker 4: Here and there and there. So I don't think it's
- 12:32Speaker 4: gonna be none of us.
- 12:33Speaker 13: I think it's you know, got a good team coming
- 12:36Speaker 13: into town and we're gonna give him my best.
- 12:38Speaker 2: How do you carry that energy or urgency y'all have
- 12:41Speaker 2: have had on the road so far the season over
- 12:43Speaker 2: to the home field, Uh.
- 12:45Speaker 4: Just do whatever coach Duck says.
- 12:46Speaker 13: You know, he gets the team ramped up, you know,
- 12:48Speaker 13: give us good energy and get us prepared to play
- 12:50Speaker 13: in those games on the road. And feel like he
- 12:52Speaker 13: does the same thing at home. And we just gotta
- 12:54Speaker 13: you know.
- 12:55Speaker 5: Sit still, do what we do and kick butt kick that.
- 12:59Speaker 4: But that's all you have to excuse yourself to do.
- 13:02Speaker 4: This physical group by the forty nine ers team.
- 13:04Speaker 5: Pretty good team, we know that.
- 13:06Speaker 13: But you know, like I said, you know, we feel
- 13:08Speaker 13: like we're pretty good and that we should be in
- 13:09Speaker 13: those games going against these type of teams and we
- 13:12Speaker 13: should come out with the win because of hard how
- 13:13Speaker 13: hard we working, the things that we know.
- 13:16Speaker 4: We believe in ourselves. So it is what it is.
- 13:18Speaker 4: We know they're good. We believe in ourselves too.
- 13:21Speaker 11: Various award You and him, did you guys come in together?
- 13:24Speaker 4: Not one hundred percent?
- 13:25Speaker 13: But I played against him before, okay eighteen years.
- 13:28Speaker 11: What do you like about him?
- 13:29Speaker 5: Yeah?

- 15:20Speaker 11: does that excite you?
- 15:21Speaker 4: Superl Yeah for sure.
- 15:23Speaker 9: And I've only heard positive stuff about Doug, my offensive
- 15:26Speaker 9: line coach from college. Actually, once he figured out I
- 15:29Speaker 9: got traded called me and I guess he played for him.
- 15:32Speaker 9: So there's a little connection there. But you know, I
- 15:34Speaker 9: met Doug and he's a great guy and I'm excited.
- 15:37Speaker 4: To play for him.

- 16:07Speaker 3: Club does have it.

- 16:10Speaker 4: It's a different one. I'll have to look that up.
- 16:15Speaker 9: I didn't look hard yesterday because the truck has you know,
- 16:18Speaker 9: three quarters of a tank.
- 16:19Speaker 4: But we'll figure it out.

- 16:48Speaker 9: in a really good mood and everyone's been really nice.
- 16:50Speaker 9: I can't tell if that's from, you know, being six
- 16:53Speaker 9: and two, or I'm sure it's because the sunny weather.
- 16:56Speaker 9: You know, I've never I haven't been in a place
- 16:57Speaker 9: with a bunch of sunny weather. So but no, everyone's
- 17:00Speaker 9: been really nice, and it's deciding to come into a contender,
