  Speaker 1: it down or keep running or over routes and stuff.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: We gotta be more match you on him and then
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: catching tackle. If he does get that catch, we can't
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: let him catch and run. Um uh you know, maybe,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I mean maybe we learned a little bit. There's how
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: to go against them in big games and what their
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: game plan is gonna be. Maybe get a little bit
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: more man on them, stick to them or zones, maybe
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: really match them up there going at the sticks. Uh yeah,

  Speaker 1: when we was losing, and then it felt like you're
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: two when wheels winning, and we wanted to keep it
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: going as long as possible. I guess it was year
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: one and we want to make it a better year too.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: But just to see that success in year one, we
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: know that we're forced to be reckoning with we know
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: we can expect as a team, and coming into this
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: offseason and coming into the season training account like, we're
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: not we not accepting mediocrity from this team no more.

• 2:21
  Speaker 1: to build on that. And we know, you know, we
