• 0:57
  Speaker 2: he's there, is in any way change your strategy and

  Speaker 2: slide to our moves or slide to him.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: What is the process like in terms of the games
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: that you guys work together and building that chemistry? I mean,
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: do you have plenty of time between now and the
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Dolphins game? Does what's the question like in terms of
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: the games that you like will do with Armstead and
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: and all the guys, Yeah, like working off of each other. Yeah, Like,
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: how does that process work in terms of building the
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: chemistry and how long does that take?
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: First and foremost, man, we have to win our one
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: on ones.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: You know, if we could, you know, one on our
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: one on ones, I'd rather do that rush front, rush
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: straight instead of rushing games. But even the games are
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: a switch up for the verses that we've.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Been winning on.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: So you know, if I'm being this guy outside, I
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: know Eric's being this guy inside. So now let's work
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: on the games of work on the chemistry. My thing
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: is when we get to be in that point, he's
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: played a lot of football, played a lot of football, get
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: a communication like, yo, yo, you know we already talked,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: you know, week of to.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Run this game.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: One.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: We're communicating if you're.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: The three we're gonna run this game, you're the two
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: we're gonna yo, yo, yo.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Give me a tap and right there and it's all trust.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I know he's going to sell them inside or you know,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I know he's gonna take it up high and he
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: know I'm gonna do my part. And we just finished
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the top of the quarterback. That's you know, that's that's
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: about it is. It remind you of klayus so a
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: little bit because of his experience and his size and
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: all that. Yes, he's a big, big human being who
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: who who needs space, but who can win also in
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: little spaces as well. And you know with kalay Is,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I think what me and Klay's had, we had great
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: communication when you talk. When you look back at a
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: lot of my games, you know, me and Clay's ran
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: a lot of stunts. That's what you're saying. We ran
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: a lot of games and that was off of yoyo.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. We're not telling them what's
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: going on, like but we know instantly I'm calling it,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: he's calling it, and we're getting off the field with
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: a sack. So if we can vote first, we gotta
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: win on one of ones and I know everyone can
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: win and one to one here, so now it's now
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: we're really gonna start getting to it now we start
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: blitzing and doing all these things.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: But uh, but before we.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Even get to that, it starts in the back end.

  Speaker 2: You know.

  Speaker 1: I love those guys. Those guys are really you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: they help us out. You know, we need to put

  Speaker 1: it back to hold the ball first of romost, so
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: any knot of game is not gonna work. The coverage
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: isn't doing their job. The rush we and we have
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to get home. So that's how we work hand in hand.

  Speaker 1: those guys, laughing with those guys, getting serious with those guys,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: knowing those guys outside the building for years, It's already
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: built that relationship. But now learning together, asking questions together,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: seeing the way you rush together, just doing all these
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: things together just really makes that cohesive group that we
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: need to play for one for one, that we need
• 5:20

  Speaker 3: as you've been in a while.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Right, Is that fair? Yeah? This is right. Now.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: I feel the best I've ever felt being six years

  Speaker 1: last year when he played us. I think he had
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the best of me. But it's okay. I still have
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: my rushes in there, but as a totality of the game,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I feel I could have done more, and uh he
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: did a good job on working his craft. Uh So
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: this time it was just to see how far I
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: came in my preparation and my my readiness, sticking to
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: my plan and also being physical and fast, but also
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: trusting that the DB's are going to do their job
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: in the back end and the linebackers are communicating with
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: us that we can play fast get the linement.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: But it's not about him.
• 6:52
