  Speaker 1: Kevin, how you doing doing well?
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: You pretty good?
• 0:04
  Speaker 3: Evan did the second half against Houston, and then the
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: second half yesterday Mac played played pretty well and did
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: what he had to do.
• 0:12
  Speaker 4: I'm just wondering if you have noticed any particular light
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: bulb going off for any particular improvement you've seen in
• 0:18
  Speaker 4: progress you've seen in Mac to where he kind of
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: has risen to the occasion in these last two games.
• 0:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I definitely think it's just kind of
• 0:28
  Speaker 5: everybody kind of settling in. Obviously we'd love to start
• 0:32
  Speaker 5: faster and get the ball rolling faster, but that's kind
• 0:36
  Speaker 5: of in the story for us on offense as during
• 0:39
  Speaker 5: the season is we kind of get going later in
• 0:41
  Speaker 5: the game. So uh, just I just I think it's
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: just credit to him. Just continue to battle. I'm continuing,
• 0:47
  Speaker 5: you know, to stay in the game, can continue to
• 0:49
  Speaker 5: overcome adversity and obviously overcoming bad plays and then staying
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: composed and the good plays, and Mac has done a
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: great job at that these past two weeks for sure.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: And then winning by any score mean a lot mentally
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: to you guys, regardless of.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, winning in this league is hard.
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: This season has been tough, so a win is a
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: win and we need to win badly and just probably
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: guys probably how we uh we finished yesterday and left
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: there with a win.
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: Thank you, Evin, appreciate you doing this. You mentioned before
• 1:30
  Speaker 6: how hard you know you guys work weekend and week out.
• 1:33
  Speaker 6: Was getting that win after you know, losing streak just
• 1:36
  Speaker 6: vindication of what you guys, the work you guys have
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: been putting in.
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's what's made you know, the previous week
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: so tough and you know, not coming out with a
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: win and just you know.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: I said all this week.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: You know, obviously this season is tough, but guys are
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: still committing, Guys are still buying, and guys are still
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: coming here every single day trying to make it right.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: And you know, uh, you know, you reap a good
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: harvest if you don't give up.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: So yesterday it was a great was a great win
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: for us, and we're gonna look and look to continue
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: to finish and see what we can do in these next.
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: Four And then Brian is like eleven catches fifteen yards
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: away from like at least owning part of every like
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: receiving record as a rookie. Just how good is he?
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: And just how much, like how high is the ceiling
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: for him just in your eyes as a player and
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: a teammate.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I mean, definitely one of the most polished
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: rookies I've ever been around. H very locked in, focused,
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: very very mature to be a rookie in this league,
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: especially at receiver. Definitely, Scott's a limit for him. He's
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: a He's a playmaker for us. He you know, he
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: has great releases, he runs great routes. He has really
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: a lot of really small, really good details on his game.
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: I like to say polished for a rookie is is
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: the perfect word. And I mean we've seen how explosive
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: he can be.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Probably I think he's still the fastest ball carrier this year.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: Like the list can go on. The future is bright
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: for him. He's he's rolling right now. We got to
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: continue to keep getting the ball. He was a big
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: part of us our success in the second half as well.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Yes, say thanks a.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, d ron.
• 3:22
  Speaker 7: Hey. And then it's it's no coincidences.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: One that once you.
• 3:26
  Speaker 7: And and Brian kind of got you know, more involved
• 3:29
  Speaker 7: in the offense and that second half, the things started
• 3:32
  Speaker 7: to happen for you guys offensively and Doug mentioned something
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: in the post game about, you know, we've got to
• 3:37
  Speaker 7: get our playmakers the ball more and do it earlier.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: So you know, I'm hoping that you would be.
• 3:44
  Speaker 7: Able to kind of expound on that and why you
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: know that offense needs you guys to kind of produce early.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think, uh, I mean that's that's
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: the I think that's the tale of football is you know,
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: you get and it's player it's the players and not plays.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: It's you know, getting the ball to your playmakers and
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: getting into the rhythm.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Uh. And we got a lot we have.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: We have you know Parker, Uh, we have BT, Brenton
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: is a weapon, you know, Lucas reliable option, myself is
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: in there. We got I mean, we have great we
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: have a great roster playmakers and obviously it's one football
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: so it kind of can get tough at times. But
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: we got to continue to build on that. And I
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: think as long as we continue to moving forward to
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: just you know, work to I guess, build off of
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: each other's success, I think that would be great for us.
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: You know, how can I how can I help b
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: T get opened on this concept? And then how can
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: how can we use bt to open up Parker? How
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: can I how can we use me to open up Brenton? Like,
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: just continue to build off of the talent we do have,
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: and I think once we, you know, continue to get
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: better at that, we'll find ourselves and more of a consistent,
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: better rhythm.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Thanks yep, go ahead, JP.
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: Hey Evin, you know, frustrating season obviously for you personally,
• 5:13
  Speaker 8: it's got to be. But is there anything down the
• 5:15
  Speaker 8: stretch here that you can do to to kind of
• 5:18
  Speaker 8: ease that statistically? Any other goals personally for you out
• 5:23
  Speaker 8: there this last month or no.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: I mean, obviously I would love to continue to get
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: the football and make plays and put my team in
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: great position. But I've definitely, uh definitely found myself in
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: a lot of a lot of situations to help out
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: some of these young guys, Pour into them, uh you know,
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: share some of my wisdom with them, give them some
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: of the expedited experience to help them come along, and
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: at the end of the day, that's going to make
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: our team better. So obviously I'm going to continue to
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: show up what my numbers called. You know, I hope
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: that my number can continue to call be called a
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: lot for sure, But any chance I can get to
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: pour into these young guys and help them develop their
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: game and develop their craft and become more confident players.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: That's that's a big that's.
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: A big mission for me to finish the year and
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: obviously continue to do that to try to win out,
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: try to win these next.
• 6:20
  Speaker 8: Four year eight for you in the league, At what
• 6:22
  Speaker 8: point did you start to feel that as a as
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: a veteran, wait a minute, I've got to teach some
• 6:27
  Speaker 8: younger guys now.
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, honestly, man is Honestly, this season this year was
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: just I've you know, I just felt how eager these
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: guys are to learn. And this year I could just
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: tell I could just kind of tell they're they're honestly
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: genuinely listening.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: And uh, and really when I was hurt.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: Those those those four weeks, Uh, there was many many
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: instances I helped Brenton with a lot of things and
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: gave him some tips and then he'd go out and
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: do it in the game and work and just you know,
• 6:58

• 7:09
  Speaker 5: and uh, and honestly, I'm learning from them as well.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: I've been running game. It's like I've been really a
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: lot better this year in the run game. And it's
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: because of Brentin, It's because of Louke. Just you know,
• 7:19

• 8:42
  Speaker 3: to have you make stops and the way you did
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: on fourth down situations and everything, is that a feeling

  Speaker 10: game and it worked out.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: And then what do you think in the past.
• 9:06
  Speaker 11: You know, let's say the Houston game a couple of
• 9:08
  Speaker 11: weeks ago, where you guys had to make a stop
• 9:10
  Speaker 11: and you know, you didn't. Was there any anything he
• 9:14
  Speaker 11: did in particular that was different other than the fact
• 9:17
  Speaker 11: that you executed things worked out.
• 9:21
  Speaker 10: It wasn't really different. You know, they ended up executing
• 9:23
  Speaker 10: and making plays.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Okay, thanks go ahead, John Shipley, Hey, well sir, thanks
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: for doing this.
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: Just you know, can you talk about what Jarian's kind
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: of his development's been like this year from your perspective
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: and just the kind of impact he had on the
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: game yesterday?
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Man, Jarian, Man, he's a great dude.
• 9:44
  Speaker 10: Man, he steadied growing and he always willing to learn,
• 9:47
  Speaker 10: you know, Easton every day, and man, his his growth
• 9:50
  Speaker 10: is just it's incredible. You know, he's a great play
• 9:53
  Speaker 10: making great plays. And man, he's being consistent and he's
• 9:56
  Speaker 10: just doing the right things.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: So all his hard work is paying.
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: And then you know, I know you had the best
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: big you know past breakup on Calvin when you were
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: going against him in the game yesterday. Did all those
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: reps against him in practice and training camp last year,
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: did all that kind of helped translate onto the game
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: field or was it just you know, like another opponent?
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it definitely translated.
• 10:17
  Speaker 10: You know, I feel like practice last year is going
• 10:19
  Speaker 10: against him in the game, I felt like I was
• 10:20
  Speaker 10: just calm and just it just felt like last year
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: in practice, like it wasn't into it for me. But man,
• 10:27
  Speaker 10: I felt comfortable out there and it was I had
• 10:31
  Speaker 10: a great time competing against him.
• 10:33
  Speaker 9: Thanks Bencer, go ahead, Mark, yeah buster in year three?
• 10:41
  Speaker 9: How much more comfortable are you feeling now than maybe
• 10:44
  Speaker 9: the love vers two years? And how hard is it
• 10:46
  Speaker 9: to really maybe make a name for yourself as a
• 10:48
  Speaker 9: seventh round draft pick? And you know, having the team's
• 10:51
  Speaker 9: gotta have patience a little bit, right.
• 10:54
  Speaker 10: I say, this year is the most comfortable I've been,
• 10:56
  Speaker 10: you know, my past two years. You know it really
• 11:00
  Speaker 10: helped me. My second year definitely helped me. You know,
• 11:02
  Speaker 10: I got the most experienced that year last year, so
• 11:04
  Speaker 10: that carried over to this year. And I just feel
• 11:07
  Speaker 10: comfortable out there. And you know, the game is saw
• 11:09
  Speaker 10: down obviously, and you know I gained more of a
• 11:12
  Speaker 10: football knowledge and I just know what's coming in.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: I feel more comfortable.
• 11:16
  Speaker 9: So what are you more proud of? I mean, the
• 11:18
  Speaker 9: seven pass breaks up breakups our career high, But so
• 11:21
  Speaker 9: are the sixty three tackles? Which one you you feel
• 11:24
  Speaker 9: like you know you've made the most strides at.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I say the past breakups.
• 11:30
  Speaker 10: You know, I look, I like when I get past
• 11:34
  Speaker 10: breakers and you know, I'm just looking forward to get
• 11:35
  Speaker 10: inter sessions, you know, that's the main thing. Just need
• 11:38
  Speaker 10: more interceptions. You know the past breakers are cool, but
• 11:40
  Speaker 10: need more intercessions.
• 11:41
  Speaker 6: So you come close, right, yeah.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: All right, we have time for one more if anybody
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: else has a question.
• 11:56
