• 0:26
  Speaker 1: seeing a lot of similarities between each week. So and
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I got some good vets and good coaching, So the
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: game is slowing down real well for me. Getting your
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: first shot today or I guess your first official sc
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, my first first sack. Uh that
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: felt good. You know I was hoping I was getting
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: my first act uh last week gets the Commanders, but
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: you know I was real close. So it was my
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: whole point this week, uh to get a sack. And
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I've been working with AD and Hones and CP and
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: uh just my uh blis techniques and uh how to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: get the dude down, so I knew, uh uh Jacobe
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: he was he wasn't really much of a scrambler, so
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: I knew how the chance to uh for like a
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: second chance to uh sack or something like that. So
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: some of the like round recognition, their tendency picking up.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: You just mentioned it when you think you had uh
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: so many plays and cover sit mm. I think it
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: was just as as far as just watching film and
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: uh uh the coaching staff being ahead of the players
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: and you know, we we do a great job too
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: out there talking, you know, so Spoon's out there talking
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: to me and uh we're talking every job about like
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: what to look for, what they what formations and uh
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: so it was just team team, team defense. You so
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: you can about the field with the brisks or whatever
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: for a second. What what happened too? Yeah, it was
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: just a little banged up. I'm not sure. I gotta
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: really watch the tape what happened, but I think he
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: just kind of like ran into my wrists and I
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: you know, I tried to stay out there, but uh
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: it was just a little a little painful, but uh
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: it was checked out. I'm I'm good they you have
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: you had four pass break ups today. I had of
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: ten for the team overall to kind of have that
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: collective effort I thin you were talking about in a
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: second ago. But they have the group you kind of
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: come through like that. What'd you kind of make of that?
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: On your side of old they? Uh, I think that's
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: just the standard we you know, we gotta uhh we
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: hold ourselves to, you know, in practice. Uh every day
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: we know we going there and uh we say, uh
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: we didn't we don't want we don't want nothing. You know,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the offense can't catch no balls and practice so we have.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: But mindset is a secondary. Uh. Mindset is the defense
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that you know when a rush and cover, uh put
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: us in coverage and uh, I think we'll lock our
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: dudes up. I did I guess for you know, you
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: score multiple touchdowns on defense, getting big stops on the
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: thirty fourth downs. How much fun are you guys having
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: as a un when the things are going with that?
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: U we having super fun. Uh having a lot of fun.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: You know, like two touchdowns on defense, two sacks by
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: the same two guys, which is crazy. You know, It's
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: like that's just so it's a testament to our defense.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: And how uh, how much work we put in, like
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: you know, uh score fourteen points. We were trying to
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: get twenty one. But uh, you know it's it's great,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: It's it's fun ouh all the time. You know, dudes
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: stepping up in different roles. I think I was ten
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: nights first start at MIC. So it's like, you know,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: just so it's how how much dep we got into
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: defense in terms of like the style you wanna plays?
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Do you guys talk? But what does that show up
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: for you? So you guys are playing style that's hard
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: for myself, but just the whole of the defense, the defense,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: what do you see? Uh, this is our style? Uh
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: you know they uh the quote we got is a
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: style that nobody wants to play. Uh. That's kind of
• 2:52
