• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I guess some good and some bad.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: Obviously, start with the good, you know, how the how
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: the offense rebounded and was able to put the ball
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: in the end zone after the special teams play there.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: And then uh, I think defensively to you know, coming
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: away with some takeaways right there. And then you know,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: I think some of the young guys in the second half,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: you know, the quarterback Nate, you know, did a nice
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: job stepping in and making some plays and and you know,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: just just coming up, coming up big, you know, when
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: we needed those guys to to to to make plays.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: So overall, a lot of things to clean up, but.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: There are some positive that will take a look at
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: and and and build on starters.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: Go out with the lead, defense allowed no points.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Good, Yeah, I mean that's that's always good.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: That was kind of the goal was to get the
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: offense going and then and then defensively play play well
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: and you know, again some positives early and you know
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: again all things that we can build on the rest
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: of camps.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Pressure throughout the game with different was the defense. Four
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: sacks I've seen. That's a good sign coming Adams.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Always always when you can put pressure, you know, on
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: our on their quarterback, you know, and and I thought
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: that you know, some of the uh is here, you know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: stood out, had a couple of nice rushes there, you know,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: even the even the first group, you know, getting getting
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: getting some pressure. All good things that we'll look at
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: on tape and uh and build on.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Devon looked like he was in the backfield almost every
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: play that he was in. Is that just a continuation
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: of what you saw last year?
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: And yeah, yeah, no, it's it's it's the way he's
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: way he's.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Uh kind of attacked the season, attacked training camp and
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: and you know, it's really good to see that him
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: that he can you know, definitely push the pocket from
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: from you know, the tackle spot, and and.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Uh, it's just just what we need, you know, is
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: what we need all all season long.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: How much the fourth down early and then the going
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: for two was the long snapper situation or.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Be yeah or unfortunately o Ross got knocked out of
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: the game on that first punt on the on the
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: turnover and so we were we were out of a
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: long snapper for the rest of the game. So a
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: lot of fourth downs that we normally wouldn't do. And
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: then you know, a lot of two point conversions that
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: we normally wouldn't do. So you know, it was good
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: to see, you know, Josh stepped in and and had
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: two punts there punt snaps and you know was effective obviously,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: and and you know, but we'll see where Ross is
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: at this week.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: What'd you see from a tank?
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Saw some good good things from him, I think once
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: he settled in and and really started seeing the whole
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: little bit better.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: He had a couple of nice runs on the perimeter.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: But you know, a tough, tough running back, he's he's
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: somebody that brings up, brings a little punch, you know,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: runs behind his pads as we say, And and again,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: this would be a good film for for him to watch.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Assuming highlighting the bad would be penalties.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with thirteen penalties, I think, I mean, that's obviously
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: something we've talked about. I've talked about with the team,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: you know, and he's pre season game, especially when you're
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: playing a lot of guys, things are gonna happen.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: But it's something we have to we have to clean up.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: You know. It's it's really a discipline thing.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: You know, it'll start with me and this week in
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: practice and making sure that our guys understand that, you know,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: either pre snap or post snap, you know, just can't happen.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: You alsay, have long runs from three different backs, it
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: can take a while to get the running game going.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Do you feel like you're getting good run blocking right now?
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's you know, obviously we look at
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: the tape and and you know, great it that way.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: But you know, there were times I thought we could
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: we could we could stay a little more north and vertical.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: And then there's times when the backs did a nice
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: job of bouncing it, uh, you know to the outside
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: and sometimes too. That's that's where some of your holds
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: and stuff come into plays when the back misses a
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: hole and he tries to stretch a play and the
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: tackle or guard is in a bad position.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: You know. So those are all things we can correct
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: and uh and and fix.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: This week, think of Nathan's this capability in general, and
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: especially on the touchdown point. I mean, it was it's
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: pretty incredible, you know, I mean I thought it, you know,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: toughness and poison to pocket being able to make a
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: play like that and and and have a couple of
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: guys on him to make that throw, you know, for
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: the touchdown is uh, I haven't seen too many I
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: haven't seen too many plays like that, you know, even
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: even in a preseason game.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: So hats off to him.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: He did a nice job leading that group, you know
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: in the second half, and uh I was able to
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: was able to uh you know, put us in the
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: end zone. Then he had the touchdown run too, so
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: he had had a really good second half.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: He was out pretty quick. But any thoughts on how
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Ridley played first game in a.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: While, very excited, He was excited to be out there,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: very appreciative, you know, but for him to you know,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: get a ball or two out there and and and
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: really catch and run and kind of kind of feel
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: the game again, you know, that's that's what he wants,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: and that's what he we we wanted for him, and
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: and you know everything will continue to get better for
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: him and and uh uh you know, as we go
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: last year.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Down the stretch, you guys made a ton of plays
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: play making plays. Today you kind of did it again
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: both sides. I mean, is that what you feel? You
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: have a team that you can obviously make plays on.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Both sides, Well, you know you're you're gonna have to
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: have that at times and and you never know who's
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: gonna make it. You know, I stress all the time,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: like you know, don't chase plays, just make them when
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: they come to you or.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: When your numbers called. And and I think that's today.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: You know what you saw from our young guys, especially
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: when their number was called, they they they made it.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: They made a play, They executed the offense or defense
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: and made a play.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: We had the interception late, you know, which was really
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: good to see. And guys were in the right spot.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: So all things that we can we can build upon
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: as we watch this film.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: All right, thanks guys,
