- 0:00Speaker 1: Jordan type yonda dip. Your win today sorts one.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Now, Oh, it always feels good the winning this league. Oh,
- 0:06Speaker 2: leased to clean some things up, but uh, it was
- 0:08Speaker 2: a really good win for him for both both sides
- 0:11Speaker 2: of the ball, well, all sides of ball. Special teasts,
- 0:13Speaker 2: you know, offensive defense. So played commary footballing and got
- 0:16Speaker 2: a really good win. If it's got to pick Uh,
- 0:19Speaker 2: it was really good man, God Man, I put me
- 0:21Speaker 2: in the right position. Man, I just knew my got
- 0:23Speaker 2: Rico with my gon Rico game you won. He told
- 0:25Speaker 2: me at the UH game, like, Man, I gave you
- 0:27Speaker 2: wanna take grass man cause I I recommend I recommended
- 0:30Speaker 2: him a good spot to eat at yesterday. So I
- 0:32Speaker 2: think he gave me one on purpose.
- 0:34Speaker 3: Georgian technic example with a mentality that she would get
- 0:36Speaker 3: in turn herby even though you weren't here. Turn herbys
- 0:38Speaker 3: were tough to come by. Last year, that didn't get
- 0:39Speaker 3: very many. Put it that gonna be the mentality of uh,
- 0:42Speaker 3: the way you played out.
- 0:43Speaker 2: I thintally that's the that's the stable of a really
- 0:45Speaker 2: good defense. What a great defense getting the ball back.
- 0:47Speaker 2: So we we pride ourselves on getting the ball back
- 0:49Speaker 2: and being physical. So we did a really good job
- 0:51Speaker 2: today getting the ball back. But uh, hopefully those come
- 0:55Speaker 2: in a bunch of so but like I said, we
- 0:56Speaker 2: thought we got a lot of things to clean up,
- 0:57Speaker 2: you know, but it was good.
- 0:58Speaker 3: Evince so much talked about here knowing adversity and you
- 1:01Speaker 3: got funny out of it today.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Right, tell me between maybe a short field or the delay.
- 1:05Speaker 2: I mean, how do you guys think you handled some
- 1:07Speaker 2: of those movements really good? Like I said, we just
- 1:09Speaker 2: played our our game up then we just just you know,
- 1:12Speaker 2: fell back on our training and did a really good
- 1:14Speaker 2: job with those little situations. So coach Liam, he touched
- 1:17Speaker 2: on it. We did a really good job with that.
- 1:19Speaker 2: But that's just a testament to our preparation, you know,
- 1:21Speaker 2: in the training camp and and late leading.
- 1:23Speaker 4: To this week.
- 1:24Speaker 2: So I feel like if we did a really good
- 1:25Speaker 2: job with those those stoppas, I'm glad we got to work.
- 1:28Speaker 3: What do you do during the delay?
- 1:30Speaker 2: We just stretched and we looked at film, We looked
- 1:32Speaker 2: at some plays that we got to clean up at
- 1:34Speaker 2: different things like that, but we stayed ready.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Sordan moves some mentality there as far as coming out
- 1:39Speaker 3: of the delay, The defense gotta stop the offense put
- 1:42Speaker 3: ten points on the board. So it's the whole idea
- 1:44Speaker 3: to come out fast.
- 1:45Speaker 2: Absolutely, come out fast, get a turnover. So the office
- 1:48Speaker 2: go out there and put some points on the board.
- 1:50Speaker 2: And that's what we did. And it felt really good
- 1:52Speaker 2: going going out there and executing our plans. So it
- 1:54Speaker 2: felt good to see that we can play complimentary football,
- 1:57Speaker 2: get some stops, and then the office can run o'clock
- 1:59Speaker 2: and you know, get some school. So it really felt
- 2:00Speaker 2: good today.
- 2:01Speaker 4: The way we play.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Is this the type of defense that you want to
- 2:04Speaker 1: show each Sunday?
- 2:06Speaker 3: Absolutely?
- 2:06Speaker 2: Absolutely, But like I said, it's always things that if
- 2:09Speaker 2: we can improve on, but it's always that standard. So
- 2:12Speaker 2: we started to set the standard pretty high and we
- 2:14Speaker 2: gotta k keep the standard every week.
- 2:16Speaker 3: New defense for you. How do you feel like you
- 2:17Speaker 3: could at an.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Uh I d I I. I had a l I
- 2:20Speaker 2: had a lot of mistakes, uh passing the ferience car,
- 2:22Speaker 2: I don't know, kind of iffy, but Morfo was good
- 2:25Speaker 2: at call, you know, getting those calls. But it's some
- 2:28Speaker 2: things that I need to clean up. Absolutely, but I
- 2:31Speaker 2: feel like I did a really good job, you know,
- 2:33Speaker 2: just getting the ball back and being aggressive. So that's
- 2:35Speaker 2: all I can ask for in my play, just you
- 2:36Speaker 2: know and watch the film and see what I can
- 2:38Speaker 2: you know, clean up.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Finally seeing Travis Hunter offense and defense in an actual
- 2:43Speaker 1: regular season game, just as you know, what are his
- 2:45Speaker 1: I see those friends, you know, leader in the red
- 2:47Speaker 1: more was that like.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Uh, it's good to see him get his feed wet.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Hopefully you know he can he can a you can
- 2:51Speaker 2: build on that and uh see what he can do
- 2:53Speaker 2: with that and uh and see where he fits on
- 2:54Speaker 2: offense and defense. Uh, where he can make plays on
- 2:56Speaker 2: both sides of the ball and affect the game. So
- 2:59Speaker 2: I'm I'm excited. You know, he got his first win,
- 3:01Speaker 2: so that that should be a h and he got
- 3:03Speaker 2: the ball in his hands, and then that should be
- 3:04Speaker 2: a you know, a confidence booster for me.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Is it a confidence space now to start winning out
- 3:09Speaker 1: the Absolutely?
- 3:10Speaker 2: But we got a really cold up challenge, you know
- 3:12Speaker 2: away going going to Cincinnati, and I feel like, uh,
- 3:15Speaker 2: we just gotta you know, watch the film, see what
- 3:17Speaker 2: we did good, and see what we did bad? Clean
- 3:18Speaker 2: up and we gotta we got a really good challenge,
- 3:20Speaker 2: you know.
- 3:21Speaker 5: Difference that first off, the grass troup man talk to us,
- 3:23Speaker 5: walk us through the big run, nice moves on it,
- 3:26Speaker 5: like take us through it.
- 3:28Speaker 4: Uh So, first off, there was the my first officer
- 3:30Speaker 4: player after the uh rain delay, so I felt like
- 3:33Speaker 4: I really should have stretched a little more before I
- 3:34Speaker 4: got out there. But now, uh, I remember Strange coming
- 3:38Speaker 4: across getting a great block for me. I just kind
- 3:40Speaker 4: of set that up. Then I've seen the safety kind
- 3:41Speaker 4: of made a move off of him, and then I
- 3:43Speaker 4: was just running and I had the ball in my
- 3:45Speaker 4: right or which all I had in my left arm.
- 3:46Speaker 4: But I've seen Dianmi coming with a great block. Uh.
- 3:49Speaker 4: I slowed down a little too much cause I I
- 3:51Speaker 4: ain't had a long run in forever, so like you know,
- 3:53Speaker 4: I should look up at the score, the clock, the
- 3:56Speaker 4: the jumbo, trying to see where the finish was at.
- 3:58Speaker 4: I kind of lost track of the I could just running.
- 4:01Speaker 4: He was just running and then just got my out
- 4:03Speaker 4: on Yambie and uh he did a great job, great block.
- 4:06Speaker 4: He really got me from me a couple more yards
- 4:08Speaker 4: and I gotta I gotta get twenty more yards on
- 4:11Speaker 4: that man. I've seen I got a twenty miles power,
- 4:14Speaker 4: but clearly that's not enough, so I gotta get in there. Monday,
- 4:17Speaker 4: hit some ten eighties. Keep working on my speed because
- 4:21Speaker 4: we can't have that no more. We gotta finish those runs.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Man.
- 4:24Speaker 5: A lot of off works, a lot of excuse me,
- 4:26Speaker 5: a lot of work this offseason. Talk to us about
- 4:28Speaker 5: the moment today, finally coming to pay dirt hundred yard
- 4:31Speaker 5: game in a while, just walking through that, how were
- 4:33Speaker 5: you feeling?
- 4:35Speaker 4: Uh, just just just locked in, just let my preparation
- 4:38Speaker 4: from this off season just kind of just prepare me
- 4:40Speaker 4: for and uh, just knowing that I put the work in,
- 4:42Speaker 4: just was out there, was able to just play free.
- 4:44Speaker 4: And uh that's just that's just just a testament to
- 4:47Speaker 4: the work that I put in this offseason. And uh,
- 4:49Speaker 4: and it just showed up when the breakfast life was
- 4:51Speaker 4: on to see the stay coming. I always see these
- 4:55Speaker 4: days coming, man, you know, just be a being a competitor,
- 4:58Speaker 4: being a football player.
- 4:59Speaker 1: I made.
- 5:00Speaker 4: We don't we don't work hard to come out here
- 5:02Speaker 4: and not put our best foot forward. And with my
- 5:04Speaker 4: little brother on the other sideline, I have little extra
- 5:06Speaker 4: motivation just kind of want to show him how to
- 5:08Speaker 4: run the ball, show him how it's done. So, Uh,
- 5:10Speaker 4: this is a great feeling just being able to shut
- 5:13Speaker 4: a feel with him and here to come out with
- 5:15Speaker 4: doing Yeah, is that.
- 5:16Speaker 5: Moment like at the end, I mean, you got his
- 5:18Speaker 5: jersey obviously in your hands.
- 5:20Speaker 4: It's still it's still kind of crazy.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Just here eat on the punt return.
- 5:23Speaker 4: I'm looking like I know I am out there, you know.
- 5:25Speaker 4: And then it was just kind of weird just kick return.
- 5:27Speaker 4: I almost stood up and was like, man, let me
- 5:29Speaker 4: see him this something. And I was like, nah, I
- 5:31Speaker 4: gotta chill. You know, we're playing against him. But I
- 5:33Speaker 4: was just just it's sciting to see him and just
- 5:36Speaker 4: to show to feel with him, have a conversation my
- 5:37Speaker 4: BT after the game, and I just just to know
- 5:41Speaker 4: that he put all the work in to get to this,
- 5:43Speaker 4: to get to this level, and for him, I just
- 5:45Speaker 4: wanted to see him keep going his rookie year. I
- 5:47Speaker 4: just want to see him keep going, keep taking advantage
- 5:49Speaker 4: of opportunities and know him great things are gonna come.
- 5:52Speaker 3: The big play aside and spread the ball around at
- 5:56Speaker 3: a few jet tweets, But at the end that one
- 5:59Speaker 3: series where you got I wanted to run clock and
- 6:01Speaker 3: you ran the ball kind of impose your will on them.
- 6:04Speaker 3: So is this an offense that also can you know
- 6:08Speaker 3: get the third and shorts get the fourth and shorts
- 6:10Speaker 3: score in the red zone and be punishing. I guess
- 6:13Speaker 3: when you want it to be.
- 6:15Speaker 4: I mean, if you want to be a great team,
- 6:16Speaker 4: we have to continue to continue to get better at
- 6:19Speaker 4: the run. If you look at all the teams in
- 6:21Speaker 4: the past years who has been good in the playoffs,
- 6:23Speaker 4: they all have a great running game. So for us
- 6:25Speaker 4: to continue to prepare for it.
- 6:26Speaker 3: We know what Trevor look do.
- 6:27Speaker 4: What he do. He's he's great, He's a generation of talent.
- 6:29Speaker 4: But we got to help him along. And I feel
- 6:31Speaker 4: like offten line did a great job. I feel like
- 6:33Speaker 4: without them, I'm not able to do what I did today,
- 6:35Speaker 4: So hats off to them. And we just got to
- 6:38Speaker 4: continue to just win upfront, and we continue to win
- 6:40Speaker 4: the upfront. Great things going to happened for us.
