- 0:10Speaker 2: the darkness bring us close together. You know, the no
- 0:13Speaker 2: the no no hot order, no lights. You know, we
- 0:17Speaker 2: all see each other clearly.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Now, how did that run each other together since our name?
- 0:24Speaker 1: I think uh started in practice.
- 0:25Speaker 2: I think the mentality that we took, you know, and
- 0:28Speaker 2: we we wanted to be on us up front. We
- 0:31Speaker 2: knew it was gonna be a hard task to dude,
- 0:33Speaker 2: so you know, we just hond on it and practice
- 0:35Speaker 2: making sure everybody got to the ball, everybody.
- 0:37Speaker 1: Was running and hitting.
- 0:39Speaker 2: I think we know we just carry that over from
- 0:40Speaker 2: their own It's gonna be good.
- 0:41Speaker 3: Juliane was saying that you were instilled the legion to
- 0:44Speaker 3: boom standard to practices and how where did you get that?
- 0:48Speaker 1: Do instilled that in you? When you got here? And
- 0:50Speaker 1: why did they do it? Now?
- 0:51Speaker 2: You know when I got here, you know the way
- 0:53Speaker 2: the guys practice, uh was at elite level, just watching
- 0:57Speaker 2: you know, tap of Rubin, you know kJ Wright, Cam Shermer,
- 1:04Speaker 2: you know, the whole the whole crew is the way
- 1:05Speaker 2: they practice is the way they attacked today. You know,
- 1:09Speaker 2: every day they was competing, Uh they didn't, you know,
- 1:11Speaker 2: receivers and DB's was probably like it was always chumping
- 1:14Speaker 2: at each other and it was always so physical, seriously
- 1:16Speaker 2: for them to be defensive backs and receivers and uh
- 1:20Speaker 2: down in the front.
- 1:21Speaker 1: It was just it was a doghouse. So, like I was.
- 1:24Speaker 2: Explaining to Jay Love, you know, I kind of had
- 1:26Speaker 2: to up my game, and you know, practice was harder
- 1:29Speaker 2: than the game, and I think that's approach. I was
- 1:31Speaker 2: explaining to Jay Love that we have to take that
- 1:33Speaker 2: approach as a team and we have to start implementing
- 1:36Speaker 2: those type of things in our practice.
- 1:37Speaker 3: Why did you bring it up now as your post
- 1:39Speaker 3: down here turn even be I.
- 1:41Speaker 2: Just think, you know, I just think we have a
- 1:43Speaker 2: special team, especially a special defense, and you know, you
- 1:46Speaker 2: can't let time go to waste, especially with the group
- 1:48Speaker 2: of guys we got. You never know how any things
- 1:50Speaker 2: going or who's gonna be here who's not. So I
- 1:53Speaker 2: just wanted to take full advantage of what we have
- 1:54Speaker 2: in front of us right now.
- 1:56Speaker 1: When you got here in twenty sixteen, did you think
- 1:58Speaker 1: those guys were crazy the way they were so you
- 2:00Speaker 1: know what I mean, you gotta be some type of
- 2:02Speaker 1: way to play this game, right, you do.
- 2:05Speaker 3: You have to get to a point in your career
- 2:07Speaker 3: where you can kind of be the veteran he says
- 2:08Speaker 3: those kind of things to I mean or given that
- 2:10Speaker 3: that point.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Now where you know, I've just spoke on what I knew.
- 2:14Speaker 1: You know, what's the anything you're one.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Of those veterans out there new audio. You guys around
- 2:18Speaker 3: you really do off your levels on first second year guys.
- 2:20Speaker 3: You pick your own right now, what is that challenge
- 2:22Speaker 3: as a leader or what does it benefit of moment?
- 2:25Speaker 1: It's it's just getting him to learn early that you know,
- 2:27Speaker 1: this is still a business. This this is uh.
- 2:29Speaker 2: You gotta be a professional athlete and when you go
- 2:32Speaker 2: out to performing it, got it. It has to be
- 2:34Speaker 2: every day and that starts with practice. You know, we
- 2:35Speaker 2: practice before we play and so like, as long as
- 2:38Speaker 2: our preparation is good, long as all we can practice good,
- 2:40Speaker 2: I think it carries over to the game. Is that
- 2:42Speaker 2: intensity hard to maintain and practice?
- 2:44Speaker 1: What you know, some guys are just trying to make
- 2:46Speaker 1: it through the week.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Nah, When you get out there and it start getting
- 2:50Speaker 2: a litle competitive and you know, you don't want to
- 2:52Speaker 2: get beaten. The one guy may get you that time.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Oh sure it clicks here and then that you know
- 2:56Speaker 2: it's time to go. So you know you gotta pick
- 2:58Speaker 2: it up and you gotta just you know, go practice
- 3:00Speaker 2: hard and it ends up being fun. You know, everybody
- 3:02Speaker 2: start drawing at each other. And then it's better when
- 3:04Speaker 2: the coaches getting into it, cause it's like, what are
- 3:06Speaker 2: you talking for?
- 3:07Speaker 1: Type?
- 3:08Speaker 3: You got EJ and Tyrese behind you, so, uh the
- 3:11Speaker 3: first time last game, how'd you feel that wentz? What
- 3:14Speaker 3: do you feel is different?
- 3:15Speaker 1: What do you hope for to come here? Well?
- 3:18Speaker 2: I think they did a hell of a job for one.
- 3:20Speaker 2: And uh, you know I remember playing his DJ a
- 3:23Speaker 2: long time when he was with the Rams. But you know,
- 3:24Speaker 2: having him like playing behind me is like way different.
- 3:27Speaker 2: It's you know, you can trust what you're doing. And
- 3:29Speaker 2: they they're playing style fits what you know, we're trying
- 3:32Speaker 2: to put out their image. Both of them are hard hitters,
- 3:34Speaker 2: are down here, they're doing their job to the best
- 3:36Speaker 2: they can.
- 3:37Speaker 1: What do you know this stuff hunter in the way
- 3:39Speaker 1: they runs.
- 3:40Speaker 2: James, Uh, I mean he runs hard, but he's human,
- 3:43Speaker 2: you know, and we we all put on paths for
- 3:45Speaker 2: a reason.
- 3:46Speaker 1: We all grown that grown man playing this game. Excuse me?
- 3:50Speaker 1: Have you seen by written?
- 3:51Speaker 3: Uh credit progress, especially when he's come back.
- 3:53Speaker 2: He's yeah, I mean he started off good, still doing good.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Sh shoot, I'll be forgetting here a rookie. Sometimes that
- 4:00Speaker 2: was my dog. But you know he comes to work
- 4:02Speaker 2: every day. You know, does a complain. It's hard, had guy,
- 4:04Speaker 2: That's what you could ask.
- 4:05Speaker 1: For in the rookie.
- 4:06Speaker 3: He plays a lot of played a lot of nose
- 4:08Speaker 3: tackle on the last year. Lets you play on the
- 4:10Speaker 3: end a little bit more. What does that do for
- 4:12Speaker 3: your game? Getting to play there instead of just.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Get to play everywhere around along the offense alone the
- 4:17Speaker 2: defensive line. I kind of like it, you know, just
- 4:20Speaker 2: moving around instead of staying in one spot. You get
- 4:22Speaker 2: to go up against different guys. You know, sometimes it's
- 4:25Speaker 2: a mixed match, and you know sometimes it's just better
- 4:27Speaker 2: for the team.
- 4:28Speaker 1: You know, we need me to play on playing to
- 4:31Speaker 1: limit the San Francs school. Let's we get one to
- 4:33Speaker 1: twenty plus during play. How big is that for you
- 4:35Speaker 1: guys to see.
- 4:36Speaker 3: That kind of ability coming back where you guys aren't
- 4:39Speaker 3: allowing the schools?
- 4:40Speaker 1: What's freaking us? I mean it's good.
- 4:42Speaker 2: But you know, I don't think nobody's surprised, nobody being
- 4:44Speaker 2: over here like, oh, you know we held him to
- 4:46Speaker 2: one twenty knock the question anything. But it's just so
- 4:49Speaker 2: a testament to the work we put in during the week.
- 4:52Speaker 2: And I think, like I said, we keep doing that,
- 4:53Speaker 2: you know, we can keep you know, those type of numbers.
- 4:55Speaker 2: That's what we're shooting for.
- 4:57Speaker 3: You have as many pressures this year as Leonard Williams.
- 4:59Speaker 3: Do you think most people be surprised to hear that
- 5:01Speaker 3: and what's working for you in past rush this year?
- 5:03Speaker 1: I don't know why they'll be surprised.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Uh. I think that I take pride of myself and
- 5:07Speaker 2: what I do with my play in my game, and
- 5:09Speaker 2: I work really hard, you know, I put together some years,
- 5:13Speaker 2: some years been good, some years me down.
- 5:14Speaker 1: You know. It's just just how it is, you know.
- 5:17Speaker 1: And I take my.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Opportunities to when I can and try to make the
- 5:19Speaker 2: best of them, you know, And it takes all of us.
- 5:21Speaker 2: I wouldn't be able to do without the guys that
- 5:22Speaker 2: I play with.
