  Speaker 2: Trayvon? The first two games with the with the plays
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: that have been made on the up front and the
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: turnovers that the team has produced.
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Is this the defense that division of the defense that
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: uh that Anthony brought to this team starting in in
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: the preseason, and has has this evolved in what you
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: think it could it is and what it can be?
• 0:30
  Speaker 5: I feel like we've made a lot of great plays,
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: especially with the way Campernelly came in off season. His
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: mindset was all about stopping to run and then everything
• 0:39
  Speaker 5: else will take take care of yourself. I feel like
• 0:42
  Speaker 5: we've definitely put out some some pretty decent tape of
• 0:45
  Speaker 5: what we want the authenticity of this team to be.
• 0:47
  Speaker 5: We just have to continuously do that weekend and we
• 0:49
  Speaker 5: gotta evolved.

• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Ryan O'Halloran, Hey, Trayvon. The books that camp gives teams.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you're lining up next to Wingard, other times it's foy.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: What kind of advantage are you see? Do you see
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: yourself getting with the pass rush when teams are still
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: guessing who's gonna blitch right at the last moment?
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: Oh, Yeah, like you say, it's a lot of disguise.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: A lot of the times we try to make everything
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: look the same so that way, you really won't want
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: to be able to tell who's coming to who's dropping out.
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: So I feel like he does a great job with
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: kind of marrying up the cause and making it look
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: that way for us to go out there and execute.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: Thank you, We'll go to d.
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: Rock then to John Chipley.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Ravon.
• 1:36
  Speaker 7: Is the feeling in the locker room after the game
• 1:38
  Speaker 7: yesterday and today different than after like a disappointing.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Loss last year?
• 1:45
  Speaker 7: How much more positive is it this year?
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: You can definitely feel the positive energy. Obviously, nobody wants
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: to lose. That's the whole mindset in the locker room.
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: But as far as we know, it's still early in
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: the season. We know the things that we can clean up,
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: and that's just something you can't We all play NFL ball.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: We know how it is in the NFL.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: It's hard to win games.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: It's just we have to continuously come together in moments
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: like that and pick each other up and just continuously
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: finish the way we started. That's that's the main thing.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Finished the way we started.
• 2:16
  Speaker 7: Were you glad to kind of see that because obviously
• 2:18
  Speaker 7: that some you know, you guys have talked to us
• 2:20
  Speaker 7: last year.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: About some of that was kind of missing a little
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: bit last year. So were you glad to see it?
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: You know, this week is.
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: A great thing to see. Everybody's everybody's just continuously growing together.
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: It's a great thing to see.
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: Thank you, John Shipley, Hey Travon, thanks for doing this.
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: We talked a lot this offseason about the impact of
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: Eric playing inside and what it can do for you
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: and Josh. Now that you're through two games of it,
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: what kind of impact has he had on you and
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: your game.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Eric on the inside, he's me personally. I can't speak
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: for Eric, but he seems like he's much more natural
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: on the inside. He's a great player on the edge
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: or on the inside, but the push that he brings
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: on the inside obsolutely it helps the guys on the
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: edge a little bit. It's still a little bit more edgier,
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: but he's a great player or whatever position that he's
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: put in. I feel like he's going to come in
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: and take advantage of it regardless of where inside and outside.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: But he's doing a great job on the inside right now.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: Thanks Charan Hey, how we doing good?
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Hey, you and Travis were on the field a couple
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: of times together yesterday. What kind of dimension can that add.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: To this offense?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Because of your guys' skill.
• 3:27
  Speaker 8: Sets, I think it brings a great dimension to the team,
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: to the offense. We're both explosive players, so being able
• 3:34
  Speaker 8: to have us both on the field to you know,
• 3:37
  Speaker 8: go line up, you know as a wide receiver in
• 3:39
  Speaker 8: the backfield. Just having you know, the both of us
• 3:42
  Speaker 8: on the field definitely helps the offense a lot.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: The last one for me, did you get to be
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: able to keep the football yesterday from the first touchdown?
• 3:49
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I was able to keep it, Travis de Diami.
• 3:51
  Speaker 8: Actually they caught it when I threw it up, and
• 3:54
  Speaker 8: so they bring it to the sideline, give it to equipment,
• 3:56
  Speaker 8: so I have it.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I got you. Thanks man. Thanks.
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: We'll go to d Rock then to John Chipley.
• 4:05
  Speaker 9: Because when you guys are leading the league and rushing
• 4:08
  Speaker 9: after the first two games of the season, I know
• 4:10
  Speaker 9: that the expectation was when Liam Cohen got here, he
• 4:13
  Speaker 9: was gonna fix this rushing attack. But did you ever
• 4:16
  Speaker 9: expect that at this point you guys would be in
• 4:18
  Speaker 9: that position, you know, a top the league after the
• 4:21
  Speaker 9: first two games.
• 4:22
  Speaker 8: I think it's just it all starts by the way
• 4:24
  Speaker 8: we practice. I think, you know, the running backs as
• 4:28
  Speaker 8: a as a group, we all practice hard on, you know,
• 4:31
  Speaker 8: improving in the run game along with you know, the
• 4:33
  Speaker 8: full team, and I think coach Cohen does a great
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: job of collinga runs as much as he does.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: So just taking a routine players from practice and.
• 4:40
  Speaker 8: Going out there and dominating, you know, in a in
• 4:42
  Speaker 8: a big stadium is something that we'd be planning on
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: and we knew was coming, you know, coming out of
• 4:47
  Speaker 8: training camp.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: So it was We're not surprised by how.
• 4:50
  Speaker 7: Much of the run game success too, is confidence. You know,
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: when you guys are are getting those big chunk plays.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of it is confident.
• 5:00
  Speaker 8: So, like I said, we drilled through practice day in
• 5:02
  Speaker 8: and day out, so it's a kind of a field thing.
• 5:04
  Speaker 8: But when you you know, when you get the ball rolling,
• 5:06
  Speaker 8: you got the high end, the confidence definitely plays a
• 5:09
  Speaker 8: huge part of it.
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: Thank you, hey Bachil, thanks for doing this.
• 5:16
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: You know a lot of guys with your speed kind
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: of get a stigma. It's not physical guys, why do
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: you embrace that part of your game and just the
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: ability to get yards out of contact that kind of stuff.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: It's just always been a part of my game since young.
• 5:28
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm a fast running back, but I also like
• 5:30
  Speaker 8: to run between the you know, between the tackles, and
• 5:32
  Speaker 8: I don't shy away from contact. I always been like
• 5:35
  Speaker 8: that since young. So it's just who I am, a
• 5:38
  Speaker 8: part of me. So I take it, you know, as
• 5:41
  Speaker 8: a positive in my game.
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: And then Tony and Liam I've talked about it's like
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: it seems like you never get negative yardage. You're always
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: falling forward. Is that like a conscious thing or is
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: it just you know, something that just happens stance, or
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: is this something you kind of focus on, like, Okay,
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: I gotta fall forward, I gotta get positive yards.
• 5:56
  Speaker 8: It's kind of a mindset that I give myself into,
• 6:00
  Speaker 8: and I think it helps. You know, anytime I get
• 6:03
  Speaker 8: hit behind a line of scrimmage. You know, I'm a
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: powerful guy, so I try to drive forward to get
• 6:06
  Speaker 8: back to the line of.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Scrimmage at least.
• 6:08
  Speaker 8: So it's just on the mindset that that built the
• 6:10
  Speaker 8: routine for me, and it just it goes without thinking.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: Now and then last one for me, well, just what's
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: it been like having a veteran like Travis in that
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: room kind of showing you, you know, the ups and
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: downs of NFL life, how to be your pro that
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: kind of stuff.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: It's been amazing. He's a great He's a great vet.
• 6:27
  Speaker 8: He helps us out a lot, give us the nuances of,
• 6:30
  Speaker 8: you know, how.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: The NFL is.
• 6:31
  Speaker 8: But to expect he's been in for this is fifty
• 6:35
  Speaker 8: year now, so he has a lot of experience. So
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: just give me some of the feedback that he has
• 6:39
  Speaker 8: from you know, game to game or practice to practice
• 6:42
  Speaker 8: that can you know, help us.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: He definitely been on.
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: Thank you, Thank you, Darry.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: And Basebell.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Did scoring your first NFL touchdown feel like you like
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: you imagined?
• 6:55
  Speaker 8: Uh?
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely did.
• 6:58
  Speaker 8: I think it was a great play that I scored on,
• 7:01
  Speaker 8: and then you know, just it was a it was
• 7:02
  Speaker 8: a huge crowd. It was a weight game, but it
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: was a it was a big crowd, which I always imagine.
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: And then just turn around and you know, all my teammates,
• 7:09
  Speaker 8: you know, come and congratulate me along with the sideline.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Uh, definitely how I pictured it. So I'm very satisfying.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Do you enjoy running over someone or breaking ankles like
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: you did the ninety six yesterday.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: I enjoyed both it doesn't mah okay.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: And then finally, uh, Trevor's only been sacked once and
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: that was kind of you know, next to last play yesterday.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: And you guys are leading the NFL and rushing. Talk
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: about your offensive line and what they've done for you
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: guys so far the season.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: They're doing an amazing job.
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: You know, they'd been busting their tails off, you know,
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: all through camp and you know, harping on the small
• 7:42
  Speaker 8: details to make this offense go. Uh, you know, grinding
• 7:45
  Speaker 8: the weight room and condition and all that, and I
• 7:47
  Speaker 8: think it's you know, it's showing off. It's definitely paying
• 7:49
  Speaker 8: off for us. Like you said one second, leading you
• 7:52
  Speaker 8: know in Russian. So just kudos to them. You know,
• 7:55

• 7:57
  Speaker 8: talk about all the details to you know, be successful,
• 8:00
  Speaker 8: to you know, help this offense go, and we definitely
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: do appreciate that.

• 8:19
  Speaker 4: away or carries went up in this week. What does
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: it mean to you to have kind of that confidence
