• 0:20
  Speaker 2: sure that I'm going so we don't wait until later
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: on in the game to get going. But I think
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: they came out In any game, those first fifteen players,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get new stuff from offenses, and they came
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: out tweaked a few things, kind of attacked areas that
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: had given us problems early on in the year. And
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: you know, we just started too late. I think we
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: just got going too late. And you know, when you're
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: playing a good football team like that, you can't get down.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: You know how we were.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: So what was it like when you see tea you
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: know you have to get injured to leave the field
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: and all that.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, what was kind of loving there? Yeah, it's tough.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: You know Geno's genesis heartbeat, Heartbeat does offense, Heartbeat does
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: his team, and you want the one of one of
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: our leaders. So obviously you know you don't wanna see
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: him get hurt. But got confidence in in Sam comfantying
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: the gods behind him. So you know, I pray everything
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: is okay with Gino, but you know we gotta be
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: ready to go. Whoever is that quarterback?
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: What's key for this team that kind of love forward
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: and get.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Things go next week, go in to work tomorrow. Correct
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: these wrongs think we gotta start factster on defense. I
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: think we're held to mess with when we're when we're
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: on it, and first half we were not, And I
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: just think we gotta go back to the drawing board.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: We've been our mindset has been playoff mode. So now
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: it's it's I it's legit. Now we gotta go. Chicking's
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: running right at you.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: Is that some of what.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: You're saying that the things you get in trouble with
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: earlier in the season.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Oh no, nah, I think it was just a lot
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: of like just mechanics and stuff that we were trying
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: to do. Not our feet weren't setting the ground we
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: were we were moving around and not setting the ground,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: and we were more so like they were ready to
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: go play, and we just we were trying to do
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: too much up from uh, trying to change things and
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: just weren't set.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Kobe said that or not gonna be Julian said that
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: the y you guys were seeing more motion from them
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: early and then that was creating some issues.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the right game as well. Yes, that that definitely
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: created some issues right there. We weren't you know, expecting,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: not like not that they weren't gonna motion, but just
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: they did a lot of motion did They a lot
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: of trickery with our eyes as linebackers, as DB's in
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: the back end. So credit to them. They came out,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: they won the game, they executed their game planning. We
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: did it.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: It's a clear right, I mean they're.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: A pretty heavy motion team, right, was it.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Just different time?
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a little different motions to different motions
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: in regard to like, you know, how they were trying
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: to just trick our eyes. Yeah, we knew they were
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: gonna motion, but it's so many ways you could do
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: it and how they were able to do certain things.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: So that was early on and then we were able.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: To get it corrected.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: How much do you put into the second half effort
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: then and and finding a way to clean things up
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: and then play a little bit stronger defensively and that
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: half or is it a trailing coming from behind? You
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: don't what?
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Uh, well, we'll just have to go back and look
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: at the film. I I I just want us to
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: start faster. So it starts with me, starts with me,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: and then when I, when I get going to everybody else,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: we'll we'll get it rolling.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: To start fast.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: As that a mental thing in terms of the defense,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: or yeah, it's mental, it's physical. It's how the game's going,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: how the game's flowing. But yeah, we just gotta be better.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: You mentioned playoff mentality. Leonard mentioned that a couple weeks
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: ago too, that you guys pretty much at that point
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: we're already in it. But you got three games now
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: and you're tied with the Rams essentially, right, How does
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: that change things? Is just more pressure on you internally?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Or I I don't think it's ever been pressure. I mean,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: we we know what type of team we are, We
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: know what the goal is and what we're trying to accomplish.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Us saying this playoff ball is just putting emphasis on
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: what we set earlier in the year that we wanted
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: to get done. That's, you know, win the division, going
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: to the playoffs, get a home playoff game one or
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: two or whatever the case may be, and you know,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: you see what happens in the playoff. But there's no pressure.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: We just got to go out and play better and
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: execute better.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Anything else, take y'all.
