Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: How are you doing? Do well, so, just when you
- 0:04Speaker 1: look at the tape and you see Derwin James, I
- 0:06Speaker 1: mean what kind of player is he? How conscious do
- 0:09Speaker 1: you have to be up where he is on every player? Yeah,
- 0:13Speaker 1: I mean first of all, just he's a great player. Um,
- 0:15Speaker 1: just the way he flies around, how many different things
- 0:18Speaker 1: that he does for their teams are great. I mean
- 0:20Speaker 1: he's a great pass rusher. So you look at that
- 0:23Speaker 1: as safe you're doing all that. And then his cover skills, Um,
- 0:26Speaker 1: just his you know football. I Q see he just
- 0:28Speaker 1: sees the play before it happens. Um, I think he
- 0:31Speaker 1: does a great job. So just having a guy like
- 0:32Speaker 1: that and they run so many different personnels and move
- 0:34Speaker 1: them all over the place, you've got to be really
- 0:36Speaker 1: aware of him and a few other players on their defense.
- 0:39Speaker 1: So they got some they got some great players. You've
- 0:42Speaker 1: said before that you grew you grew up more of
- 0:44Speaker 1: a college football fan than an NFL fan. What's the
- 0:47Speaker 1: first office that you can recall really wanting to watch
- 0:52Speaker 1: because he was either entertaining or it was fun or
- 0:54Speaker 1: just I mean, I know. Yeah, well, you know, I
- 0:58Speaker 1: grew up a big pay manning fans. So he was
- 1:02Speaker 1: he was out of college by the time I really was,
- 1:04Speaker 1: you know, knew what was going on football wise. But
- 1:05Speaker 1: so I watched him in the NFL. That's like the
- 1:07Speaker 1: one guy I really watched. So I love watching him
- 1:10Speaker 1: when he was with the colts and the broncos all that. Um.
- 1:14Speaker 1: Other than that, I would you know, there wasn't really
- 1:16Speaker 1: a specific one. Like I was a Tennessee fans. I'll
- 1:18Speaker 1: watched them and then, you know, as I kind of
- 1:20Speaker 1: got recruited, I'd watched the schools and obviously Clemson, as
- 1:23Speaker 1: I got older, was the one that stuck out because
- 1:25Speaker 1: of Deshaun and, you know, Taj Boyd all those guys
- 1:27Speaker 1: that went there when you were in college. Um, do
- 1:32Speaker 1: you recall wanting to specifically watch a certain a certain
- 1:37Speaker 1: a certain quarterback at all? I mean, yeah, because Payne's
- 1:41Speaker 1: already retired and I'm just I'm just wondering, was there
- 1:43Speaker 1: anybody else you picked on the boy I really, I
- 1:46Speaker 1: mean watched this guy? Yeah, there's a there's a lot
- 1:48Speaker 1: of a lot of fun players, especially right now, to watch.
- 1:50Speaker 1: I mean you look at Patrick Mahomes, um, Aaron Rodgers,
- 1:55Speaker 1: Tom Brady, uh, deshaun back then. At that point, you know, was,
- 2:00Speaker 1: I mean him with the Texans. They were it's really
- 2:02Speaker 1: fun to watch. And then, you know, you think about
- 2:04Speaker 1: Josh Allen. The list goes on on, Lamar, all of this.
- 2:07Speaker 1: So I think all those guys are so much fun
- 2:09Speaker 1: to watch and it's really cool. You know, where we're
- 2:12Speaker 1: at in this league with so many young quarterbacks and
- 2:14Speaker 1: it's just it's really fun every every game, every week,
- 2:19Speaker 1: going to the West coach the game. You have a
- 2:21Speaker 1: lot of good memories from the last two trips out there.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Do you like when the schedule of Gott and you
- 2:26Speaker 1: guys are doing it a little bit different? Do you
- 2:28Speaker 1: notice it? You mean like the travel time and stuff
- 2:31Speaker 1: like that? Yeah, I mean we you know, we didn't
- 2:34Speaker 1: really that's not something we talked about necessarily. That's just
- 2:36Speaker 1: the way. You know, coach Peterson does it and Um,
- 2:39Speaker 1: for me, I don't have a ton of experience with
- 2:41Speaker 1: these games. So, Um, he's found success doing that and
- 2:44Speaker 1: I'm all for it. You know, I think that's I
- 2:45Speaker 1: think it makes sense. You know, you don't really have
- 2:47Speaker 1: enough time to adjust anyway, so you might as well
- 2:49Speaker 1: keep your schedule the same go out there. You know,
- 2:52Speaker 1: do you do most of your prep here go out
- 2:54Speaker 1: there and play the game come home. Um. So it
- 2:56Speaker 1: makes sense to me. But now, I mean we're we're
- 2:58Speaker 1: looking forward to this matchup. Obviously it's a great team
- 3:00Speaker 1: that we get a chance to to go play in
- 3:02Speaker 1: L A and, Um, we're excited for that opportunity. How
- 3:05Speaker 1: you played last week and move forward. Can you do
- 3:08Speaker 1: that or is it honest, new week week? Definitely, I
- 3:11Speaker 1: mean there's things, there's things that always that can always
- 3:14Speaker 1: carry over, depending on the defense you're playing, and Um,
- 3:18Speaker 1: certainly things do. But as far as just your mentality
- 3:22Speaker 1: has to you kind of have to flip the page
- 3:23Speaker 1: and you look at more. You know that you don't
- 3:26Speaker 1: just luck into a win like we did on Sunday.
- 3:28Speaker 1: It's the preparation to get there, the focus, all those
- 3:30Speaker 1: things and you just replicate it and that's the biggest things.
- 3:33Speaker 1: That's the positive you take from it and you just
- 3:35Speaker 1: try to do it again and again. Um. But as
- 3:37Speaker 1: far as just that result, that's not gonna it's not
- 3:39Speaker 1: gonna winning the game on Sunday. You gotta just stick
- 3:41Speaker 1: to your process and do it, Um, every day of
- 3:44Speaker 1: the week. Don't use the phrase so now like yeah,
- 3:53Speaker 1: that's something he talks about all the time and that's
- 3:54Speaker 1: just I mean that's how football is, that's how this
- 3:56Speaker 1: league is. You you have a seventeen game regular season.
- 3:59Speaker 1: That's the second game this season. Whether we won or
- 4:01Speaker 1: lost that game, we still got a game this week,
- 4:03Speaker 1: and a huge one at that. So it doesn't really
- 4:06Speaker 1: matter the outcome. Obviously you take a lot of confidence
- 4:08Speaker 1: from how we played and that's that's the goal. But
- 4:11Speaker 1: at the end of the day you got another game
- 4:12Speaker 1: coming up this week and by you know, lunchtime on Monday,
- 4:16Speaker 1: you're you're pasted it and you're moving on to the
- 4:18Speaker 1: next to the next week. So that's how we approach it.
- 4:20Speaker 1: That's the march free agency period unfolded. What were you
- 4:24Speaker 1: thinking when you saw Christian Kirk Say Jones, Evan Ingram?
- 4:29Speaker 1: What thoughts started to go through sheriff, that was that
- 4:33Speaker 1: was awesome too. Uh, just just excited. You know, obviously
- 4:38Speaker 1: you're kind of Im I'm with you guys, seeing all
- 4:39Speaker 1: this stuff happening and you know, I was. I was
- 4:41Speaker 1: pumped to see those pickups. Just heard about them in
- 4:45Speaker 1: the past, not only on the field. I obviously I've
- 4:47Speaker 1: seen what they've done on the field, but just the
- 4:48Speaker 1: kind of people they are. I know a lot of
- 4:50Speaker 1: mutual friends of theirs. Besides, Brandon didn't really know many
- 4:53Speaker 1: people with him in Washington, but he's he's incredible. But
- 4:56Speaker 1: just to add those guys, the quality people, to our
- 4:59Speaker 1: locker room beviously their talent is gonna help us, but
- 5:01Speaker 1: it's it's that leadership, the way they come to work
- 5:03Speaker 1: every day. It's been awesome. Yeah, but since you don't
- 5:07Speaker 1: since you don't have any idea about what they're or
- 5:09Speaker 1: don't have much of an idea about what their daily
- 5:11Speaker 1: work ethics, if you're not, just the idea of the
- 5:14Speaker 1: fact that they're playmakers. And Yeah, for sure, I mean
- 5:17Speaker 1: obviously that's when you see that, especially as a quarterback,
- 5:21Speaker 1: that excites you. You You know, get a guy up front
- 5:22Speaker 1: that's a stud, a bunch of guys in the perimeter
- 5:25Speaker 1: that can that can run, they're smart, that can do
- 5:27Speaker 1: a lot of different things. For us to to add
- 5:29Speaker 1: to our already good toolbox of playmakers and just to
- 5:34Speaker 1: to add those guys has been awesome for us. I
- 5:35Speaker 1: think it's changed the whole dynamic of our team, of
- 5:38Speaker 1: our locker room. Um More to like we talked about
- 5:41Speaker 1: when they came here. You kind of saw that more.
- 5:42Speaker 1: But yeah, obviously I was pumped to get those guys.
- 5:46Speaker 1: We already Gonda, we already talked about but just just
- 5:53Speaker 1: the chargers defense. What, what sort of threat do they pose?
- 5:56Speaker 1: What do you have to make sure to watch out for?
- 5:58Speaker 1: They just gotta they just have a bunch of great
- 6:00Speaker 1: players really at every position. You know, you look at
- 6:02Speaker 1: those two guys on the edge, UM, on the edges,
- 6:05Speaker 1: they're just playmakers. They're they're great. I mean Joey and Khalil,
- 6:10Speaker 1: and both those guys great players. So you gotta be
- 6:12Speaker 1: able to manage that. You gotta have a plan. Um,
- 6:14Speaker 1: obviously they're gonna make plays. That's just the type of
- 6:17Speaker 1: players they are, but we got to manage that and
- 6:19Speaker 1: we gotta figure out a way to best attack those
- 6:21Speaker 1: guys in the whole defense. And then you got Derwin,
- 6:24Speaker 1: J C Jackson and Sante Samuel. You got their linebackers, Kenneth, Kenneth, Murray,
- 6:28Speaker 1: Kyle Vinoy, a bunch of those guys. Um, their nickels,
- 6:31Speaker 1: a great player, Callahan. I mean really just talented all
- 6:34Speaker 1: over the board. We gotta just be really disciplined. Um,
- 6:36Speaker 1: I feel like we have a great plan as of
- 6:38Speaker 1: right now, but this has to develop more and more
- 6:40Speaker 1: and we just gotta gotta learn more about them as
- 6:43Speaker 1: we as we go throughout the week. and Um, I
- 6:45Speaker 1: feel like the same thing as last week. Just be
- 6:47Speaker 1: prepared and everyone on the same page and at the
- 6:49Speaker 1: end of the day, it's just about who executes better.
- 6:51Speaker 1: Better Hair match up in the league. They need to
- 6:53Speaker 1: go on. Oh, I guess. Well, somebody. I don't even
- 7:01Speaker 1: feel like answering it, but yeah, I guess awesome. Thank
- 7:07Speaker 1: you all.
