- 4:14Speaker 4: excited every game day, So it's a fashion of the
- 4:16Speaker 4: game day for me, the better for me. So I'm
- 4:19Speaker 4: just super excited to just be able to play again.
- 4:21Speaker 2: You know something I noticed.
- 4:22Speaker 3: When you guys break the huddle before you guys got
- 4:24Speaker 3: are Indeed you go and wrap up a lot of
- 4:26Speaker 3: the offensive guys like you get to as many as
- 4:28Speaker 3: you can.
- 4:28Speaker 4: Why do you do that? Is there a reason behind it?
- 4:30Speaker 5: Uh?
- 4:31Speaker 4: Just power of touch, you know, just try to roll
- 4:33Speaker 4: off on everybody, you know, try to give them the
- 4:35Speaker 4: energy that I bring every day. So uh, just a
- 4:37Speaker 4: power of touch to make sure you know, I'll lift
- 4:39Speaker 4: as many guys as I can.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Liam, I said, like even with the four and one start,
- 4:44Speaker 1: you guys aren't content with that standard.
- 4:45Speaker 6: You wanna keep getting better.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Why is that an important mindset for you guys to have?
- 4:48Speaker 4: Uh, because it's a it's a long season. You know
- 4:52Speaker 4: we can start four and one and we just gotta
- 4:54Speaker 4: continue to take that mindset. Uh, just going one to
- 4:56Speaker 4: know each week. You know that's our record right now.
- 4:59Speaker 4: But we're really on and on right now. You know,
- 5:01Speaker 4: we gotta go one and know this this Sunday, and
- 5:04Speaker 4: we gotta continue to go one to know.
- 5:06Speaker 2: I know, you just do what coaches are are telling
- 5:08Speaker 2: you to do. But how does the Tyson trait kind
- 5:10Speaker 2: of affect you?
- 5:12Speaker 3: Uh?
- 5:13Speaker 4: It was a brother, you know, he was a brother here.
- 5:15Speaker 4: You know I could talk to him, aks him whatever
- 5:16Speaker 4: I needed to. Uh, But it's all in God's playerformance
- 5:21Speaker 4: and God's works for him. So I j you know,
- 5:23Speaker 4: just God bless him and I hope he you know,
- 5:25Speaker 4: get to a mindset of it's just another step.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Are you did you think you'd have a touchdown at
- 5:31Speaker 1: by at this point in the season?
- 5:32Speaker 3: Are you starting to get like a little like anxious,
- 5:35Speaker 3: like when's it gonna happen at all? Or not?
- 5:37Speaker 1: Uh?
- 5:37Speaker 4: Those type of things you just gotta leave up to God,
- 5:39Speaker 4: and you just gotta continue just be faithful, and you
- 5:42Speaker 4: know the time is it's gonna be right when it's
- 5:44Speaker 4: when it's time. So you just gotta continue to just
- 5:46Speaker 4: go off for greatness every day and continue to just
- 5:49Speaker 4: be blessed and continue to just go out there and work.
- 5:51Speaker 3: They trap to just talk to VT about kind of
- 5:53Speaker 3: getting that down bill passing game going. It seems like
- 5:55Speaker 3: all you guys are making some of those explosive plays.
- 5:58Speaker 3: Uh one, how great is it to finally kind of
- 5:59Speaker 3: get that role a little bit more consistently into How
- 6:01Speaker 3: infectious is it when you know you make a player
- 6:03Speaker 3: kind of boost everybody else up?
- 6:05Speaker 2: Uh?
- 6:07Speaker 4: You know, we we gotta prove the coach that we
- 6:09Speaker 4: can make those plays. So him giving those those us
- 6:11Speaker 4: those shots and we capitalize all those shots and just
- 6:14Speaker 4: give him more of a Okay we could do this,
- 6:16Speaker 4: let's go do it. So you know, we just gotta
- 6:18Speaker 4: continue to do our job when he call our memory
- 6:20Speaker 4: answer what we having them?
- 6:21Speaker 1: Though? Is there something too like it's winning those games
- 6:25Speaker 1: when it's not perfect, Cause you still wanna like it's
- 6:27Speaker 1: good to learn from the winning tape, right?
- 6:29Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 6:30Speaker 5: I think that's really cool to be learning and wins
- 6:32Speaker 5: right now, because uh, when you do put it together,
- 6:34Speaker 5: you know it could look really special. But that's what
- 6:36Speaker 5: we're striving for, having to look well, having looked real
- 6:39Speaker 5: good and the winning as well.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Is it tough to go from being the hunter to
- 6:42Speaker 1: the hunter that you do that on Monday Night football?
- 6:44Speaker 5: Me personally, I'm always a hunter. I don't even care like, uh,
- 6:47Speaker 5: I got a lot to prove in my career, got
- 6:48Speaker 5: a lot to prove every year, every game I'm out there.
- 6:51Speaker 3: Uh.
- 6:51Speaker 5: I think most people in the locker room kind of
- 6:52Speaker 5: feel that same way. Coaching staff feels that same way
- 6:55Speaker 5: being a uh a new coaching staff. So I'm always
- 6:57Speaker 5: trying because I feel like I got a lot I
- 6:59Speaker 5: wanna put out there for the season.
- 7:01Speaker 6: You got a quartermaer Sam Darnold whose extends plays.
- 7:04Speaker 5: What kind of stress can that put on a defense?
- 7:06Speaker 5: You know, you got a plaster, but we got keep
- 7:08Speaker 5: him in the pocket, really finish the rushes, make sure
- 7:10Speaker 5: we bring them down when we get our hands on them,
- 7:11Speaker 5: and then the in the coverage part, making sure that
- 7:14Speaker 5: when they he does break, contain staying in the plaster.
- 7:17Speaker 1: We call it.
- 7:19Speaker 5: Yeah, we experienced some of it. Last game, but we
- 7:22Speaker 5: could do better at it for sure.
- 7:23Speaker 1: New Spot. But y'all played him last year. How much
- 7:25Speaker 1: can you take for maybe what you're.
- 7:26Speaker 4: Able to do to frustrate him the year ago?
- 7:30Speaker 2: What do you think?
- 7:31Speaker 5: No, I mean, for sure, watch a little bit of that.
- 7:33Speaker 5: I mean, he's in a new scheme himself somewhat. You know,
- 7:37Speaker 5: he's grown as a player since then. But you know,
- 7:40Speaker 5: I'm not gonna tell our game plan and stuff, but
- 7:43Speaker 5: definitely the things that we feel like he struggled with,
- 7:45Speaker 5: maybe implement some of that to our game plan.
