• 0:03
  Speaker 1: seven rushers as an offense as a running back, you

  Speaker 1: gotta love that type of commitment to the running game, right,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: What does that mean to this group?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: It means a lot.
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: You know, that coach you know, decided to run us,

  Speaker 3: it definitely showed that he has a lot of trust
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: and confidence and you know us and the you know,
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: the offensive line and the wideouts, you know, with all
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: blocking and you know, we want to be able to
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: run a ball. So just to you know, get the
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: opportunity to go out there and showcase. That definitely means
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: a lot to our group.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Got a one to two punch. Call Travis here too,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and throw into Quint too. So the three three headed monster,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I guess in the backfield.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, yeah, it definitely is like you said, TJ
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: and air then you know I could come into you
• 0:40

• 0:42
  Speaker 3: one two.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: It's just you know, it's amazing to see.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: You know, we don't got to be out there gas,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: you know, trying to stretch plays because we're low numbers.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: We got three backs that can come in you know,
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: and pick up off each other and you know, be successful.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: This was an offensive line last week that five guys
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: on the injury report, right tackle was out and they
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: had that performance.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: What does that say?
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: How much belief do you have in that group up front?
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: A lot of belief. It just you know, that's who
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: they are. You know, they work their tails off every week.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: You know, some people battle through injuries. You know, we
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: might lose some guys throughout the week in a game,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: but you know they come in and they.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Work their bus off, you know, every day of the week.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: So just going out there and them showing you know
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: who they are, we definitely need it.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: How are you physically feeling after We're getting close to
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving here? You know it would have been about the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: same amount of time as a college football regular season,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: So how are you physically with all this time left
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: to go?
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: I feel pretty good.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: The biggest thing I picked up, you know, coming into
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: the league is taking care of your body, a lot
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: of treatment and like creating a routine for yourself. So
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: I think the routine that are creating and getting much
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: treatment as I do, I do, you know, help me
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: thus far.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: And I just got to keep continuing to do it.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Last one for me and it's now handling the success
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: of last week. We saw what this team could do
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: getting off the deck after what happened in Houston with
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the performance last week. But how do you as a
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: team wanted to go handle business on the road coming
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: off of wedd like that.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Uh, just get back to the basics, you know. Uh,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: last week was a great win, but put it behind us.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: We know what we need to build on and we
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: know our standard, like Coach Cohen said, Uh, we set
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: the new standard you know last Sunday. We just gotta
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: know that and come out you know, this week and
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: prepare like it and you know, just go out there
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: and be us.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: How is it the best rookies of that? Uh, it
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: feels amazing.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Still got a lot of work to do, but you know,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: just to be recognized and putting that conversation, you know,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: it feels amazing.
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: Last week the per formans of defense put in just
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: I mean, what a really take for you guys to
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: kind of hone in throughout the week to do that?
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: And have you guys, have you seen it replicate this
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: week in practice?
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: Of course?
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: Uh?
• 2:41
  Speaker 7: I think last week was just kind of honed in
• 2:43
  Speaker 7: on each other. I think it was more about finding
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: out more about each other and really, you know what
• 2:48
  Speaker 7: I'm saying, figuring out what works for us, more than
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: it was like anything else. I think it was just
• 2:53
  Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying, We really just came together
• 2:54
  Speaker 7: and was like they just have fun, Like forget everything
• 2:57
  Speaker 7: else that you know what I'm saying, that comes with
• 2:59
  Speaker 7: just have fun, Know what I'm saying.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: I think it well, love the result.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: How much is it helping you as a corner when
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: the defensive line tiping the kind of game they just
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: beating up.
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: On a dif yo.
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: I was so excited they were doing what they were doing,
• 3:08
  Speaker 7: Like I really didn't have to cover long. I mean
• 3:10
  Speaker 7: after I took over the first read it was sack.
• 3:12
  Speaker 7: So I I think it was after I said it.
• 3:13
  Speaker 7: After I got I did a micd up and I
• 3:15
  Speaker 7: think everybody's seeing. I was telling jay Von, I was like, bro, like,
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: y'all keep doing that, bro, like we call anything. And
• 3:20
  Speaker 7: so y'all was super excited for those boys, especially j'alls,
• 3:22
  Speaker 7: you know, getting the records of super excit flow boys.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: What do you guys keep playing angry?
• 3:31
  Speaker 7: I think it's more of like, uh, like the culture
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: that we kind of built here. I think I think
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: you can kind of tell the difference in the way
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: that we play. And you know, I don't know what
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: they how they played before I got here, but like
• 3:41
  Speaker 7: in the previous year since I've been here, I think
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: you can kind of see the difference in how we play.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I think it's just you know what I'm saying.
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: I think Liam and Camp and you know what I'm saying,
• 3:48
  Speaker 7: everyone does a good job of you know what I've
• 3:49
  Speaker 7: been talking about their as that we need to play
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: with it, you know what I'm saying, just wearing it
• 3:52
  Speaker 7: every day. So I think they just kind of when
• 3:54
  Speaker 7: we're all clicking and having fun and not thinking about
• 3:57
  Speaker 7: like what would happen if something goes bad, I think
• 3:59
  Speaker 7: you get to see how you know what I'm saying,
• 4:00
  Speaker 7: that is that we time to play with.
• 4:02
  Speaker 8: That's the keys for the Cardinals this week.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: I think just get back to having fun.
• 4:07
  Speaker 7: I mean, I don't really think nobody should really try to,
• 4:09
  Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying, to do anything out of.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: The ordinary, Like I need Josh to be Josh, I Jar.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: He needs to go be jar.
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: Greg needs to go be Greg, I don't need you
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: to be like I don't need Brian Dawkins to show
• 4:19
  Speaker 7: up out of nowhere. I need to just be who
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: you are and everything is So is it.
• 4:23
  Speaker 9: Just kind of you know, not stressing too much or
• 4:27
  Speaker 9: making it too big of a thing, just just focusing,
• 4:30
  Speaker 9: like you said, on your job and just not putting
• 4:33
  Speaker 9: too much like thought into it.
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: Is that it?
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: I think Uh the did because just talk to us.
• 4:38
  Speaker 7: I think they said it perfect. I think the two
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: things that we could just worry about and if we
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: do these two things at the high level would be
• 4:44
  Speaker 7: good execute and play with maximum effort. If we do
• 4:48
  Speaker 7: those two things, I have no doubt whatuld happened in again, can't.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: Say how happy he was for Christian Braswell and kind
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: of go on there and play it the way he did.
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: Just you know, you've been with him last couple years.
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: What was it like for you to kind of see
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: him go in there and play.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: Like I'm very excited.
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: You know, I'm really close with uh with c B
• 5:03
  Speaker 7: and UH just you know what I'm saying, seeing him
• 5:04
  Speaker 7: get his opportunity and he shows up. I see him
• 5:07
  Speaker 7: show up every day in practice. So you know that
• 5:08
  Speaker 7: the world being able to see him show up, and
• 5:10
  Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying, make those plays in those moments.
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: I think I was super excited for him, you know
• 5:13
  Speaker 7: what I'm saying. I think you know what I'm saying,
• 5:15
  Speaker 7: The sky's the limit form. I think he's gonna continue
• 5:16
  Speaker 7: to you know what I'm saying, play at a really
• 5:17
  Speaker 7: high level.
• 5:18
  Speaker 9: And you guys have the last week. Can you build
• 5:20
  Speaker 9: on that as you go to the Cardinals on Sunday?
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: I mean, just learn what work And I'm sure we
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: did stuff that was wrong too, so learning from those
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: mistakes too, and just trying to get better honestly, So
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: just take what we did, flush up, but at the
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: same time, learn from everything.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Are you settling now? Like this whole offense? So you
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: how much of it do you think you know?
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: By this point, I honestly couldn't even tell you. I
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: just every week is a new week. I'm just trying
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: to learn the situation for the week and make sure
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: I got my job right. I could say right now,
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: I can get myself open. I probably couldn't help everybody
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: get open as far as the total offense, but the
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: guy's been helping me a lot, so I appreciate them
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: for that.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: What are you talking more about Trevor since you got here?
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: I mean, he delivered a good ball. He do his job,
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: you know what he's doing.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Be a pro.
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: He a good Q to have, honestly, like, I'm grateful
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: to be here with him and get it in with him.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: And then when you.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Say your offense run almost fifty times kind of closing
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: that will? How much does that open up things in
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: the past way when you guys getting stuff like.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: That the round.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: Ye, that's football.
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: Honestly, I feel like football is built around the run game,
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: right and stopping to run. So when you can enforce
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: a will like that, everything's just easy.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: After that.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: They got to respect it, They got to bring safeties
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: down and account for it. So and that makes it
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: easier on us in the back of the end.
• 6:29
  Speaker 8: Are you settling in period, like if you found a
• 6:31
  Speaker 8: place to live or are you still like living out
• 6:33
  Speaker 8: of a hotel?
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: Or how is that airbnb right now?
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: We bouncing around. It's taking a day by day though.
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: I ain't complaining like it's it's football. It's a couple
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: of months. I ain't got no real issues.
• 6:43
  Speaker 8: Is it hard though where you're when you're trying to
• 6:44
  Speaker 8: figure find a place like that, and then you're trying
• 6:46
  Speaker 8: to learn teammates, learn coaches, learn a new offense. I mean,
• 6:50
  Speaker 8: when you go back at night, I'm assuming you're just
• 6:53
  Speaker 8: pounding through the playbook and stuff, right.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah, chilling with my family honestly, But I mean it's
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: supposed to be hard, though, you know, if it wasn't
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: anybody to do it for real, I'm just grateful for
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: the opportunity.
• 7:02
  Speaker 8: If ever said something yesterday's like he kind of can
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: tell just by the way you run and the way
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: you move that he knows where you're gonna be.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Do you know what he's talking about? Does that make
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: sense to.
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: You a little bit or a little bit. But I
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: ain't gonna dig too deep in it. If he can tell,
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna just keep doing what I do, you know
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: what I mean. Obviously he got a good read on it,
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: so I don't want to mess him up at all.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: What's your early impressions now a couple of weeks in
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: of the personality of this team and is this a
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: team that can build on last week for the weeks
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: ahead and make a run here and after Thanksgiving?
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: Honestly, I haven't had enough time to really tell you
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: the full personality, but I think so to the second part,
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: Like definitely think just going off for the first week
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: with the Texans and how it came back to the
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: next week. I think this should be an easier job.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: But I think if we can show that we can
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: do it, like through wins and losses, it'll be a
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: good statement for us.
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: What have you kind of seen, you know, this week
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: through practice, you know, from the defense of you guys,
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: kind of a building.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: Off that performance from last week. Yeah, just focusing on
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: all the details.
• 8:02
  Speaker 10: Obviously we had a great performance last week. The standard
• 8:04
  Speaker 10: to set now, you know, we played four quarters of
• 8:06
  Speaker 10: our brand and football.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: And so it's not changing anything. It's preparing the same way.
• 8:11
  Speaker 10: Obviously, it's a different opponent, so we gotta tune into
• 8:13
  Speaker 10: what our game plan specific stuff is for them, but
• 8:17
  Speaker 10: it's keeping the same process.
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: Being around Josh as long as you've been. What was
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: it like for you just to see him kind of
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: hit that record last week?
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: Man, especially, it was a long time coming.
• 8:25
  Speaker 10: We're giving them crap about it should have been broken,
• 8:29
  Speaker 10: but man, it just came in at a just a
• 8:31
  Speaker 10: great time. Big win, big team win, and man, that's
• 8:35
  Speaker 10: my brother. I'm so so happy for him, so proud
• 8:37
  Speaker 10: of him, and I just look forward to him extending
• 8:40
  Speaker 10: that record and make it hard for the next guy.
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: How good is Air playing in front of you? Armstand?
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: How good is Eric playing in front of you? Yeah?
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: You know, he's playing great.
• 8:49
  Speaker 10: Obviously in the past game he is really good sack production,
• 8:53
  Speaker 10: and he's been doing this thing in the run game,
• 8:55
  Speaker 10: made some some players the other day and really, you know,
• 8:58
  Speaker 10: all year. So he's playing really good. And like I said,
• 9:01
  Speaker 10: you know, that's the standard. You know, everybody across the board,
• 9:03
  Speaker 10: we expect for them to play at their highest level.
• 9:06
  Speaker 8: He seemed I don't know if rejuvenated is the right word,
• 9:09
  Speaker 8: but you know, last year playing outside, now he's back
• 9:11
  Speaker 8: inside where he's had, you know, a ton of success.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Is the energize maybe a little bit more this year?
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think he's hungry.
• 9:17
  Speaker 10: You know, he's just you know, every every day he
• 9:20
  Speaker 10: goes out and you know, I can't really speak for
• 9:22
  Speaker 10: him obviously, you know, but from what I see, it's like,
• 9:24
  Speaker 10: you know, he's got a point to prove, and we're
• 9:27
  Speaker 10: behind him. Everybody has got a point to prove. You know,
• 9:29
  Speaker 10: we all want to go and just put our best
• 9:32
  Speaker 10: foot forwards.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: So that's what I see.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: How does the team play angry every week?
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: Moving ahead? Yeah, I think.
• 9:39
  Speaker 10: I mean we play for for the love of one another,
• 9:41
  Speaker 10: you know, we play for each other, but when it
• 9:43
  Speaker 10: comes down to it, yeah, we gotta play pissed off.
• 9:45
  Speaker 10: Then coach said, we gotta play fierce. And it's really
• 9:47
  Speaker 10: just a mentality, you know, it's it's a me or
• 9:49
  Speaker 10: you mentality.
• 9:51
  Speaker 9: What's this guy your apart from Chatoby.
• 9:54
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you know Vet He you know, system quarterball, I
• 9:58
  Speaker 10: want to say system quarterback, but he's guy that can
• 10:01
  Speaker 10: run the system really well, and he can air the
• 10:04
  Speaker 10: ball out obviously, he can make every throw, you know,
• 10:06
  Speaker 10: a guy that we obviously.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: Have to focus on just because I mean shot.
• 10:11
  Speaker 10: He said an NFL record last week for most completions,
• 10:14
  Speaker 10: and ever since Week six, they were saying he's had
• 10:17
  Speaker 10: some really impressive numbers. So he's been doing a good
• 10:20
  Speaker 10: job managing the offense and getting the ball to his playmakers.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: So we're gonna be on highlight for that.
