  Speaker 1: And what was the movie last.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think today obviously we're back to work.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: You know, we're getting ready to try to go win
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: a game this Sunday against New England. Obviously last week
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: was what it was, and you just have to be
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: able to move on quickly. In this league, you know,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: it's wins or losses. So for us, it's you know,
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: we've turned the page and we got to put our
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: best foot forward and try to go beat New England
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: this week. So that's where we're at, and I think
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: part of it is keeping the spirits up. And I
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: mean obviously you stay focused and you stay locked in
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: now more than ever, but you also got to have fun.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: You know, it's still a game and we're still out
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: here get to do what we love and trying to
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: just enjoy it and not let the pressure of obviously
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: we need to win a game, but not let that
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: take away the joy of the game, because I think
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: that helps you play better, honestly. So that's kind of
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: been what we've been talking about and some of coaches messaging,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: which has been good.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Boy, is that love made the play so well here
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: and you were hoping to kind of event get back
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: to the wind that you do here this weekend.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: You know, I think we always enjoyed the opportunity to
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: come out here and play. It's something different, it's a
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: change of scenery during our kind of breaks the season up.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: You know, it gets seasons long and it can get
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: a little monotonous as the year goes on. So I
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: think we've always just honestly kind of enjoyed the change
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: up and didn't play well last week, so we got
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: to get on track this week. But you know, typically
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: I feel like we've we've handled it pretty well. So
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: I think still we handled the travel, we handled everything well,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: and obviously we didn't get there was what we wanted,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: but we got the opportunity this week. So, like I said,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: we enjoyed being out here and get a little fall weather.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: We don't get this in Florida. It's a little a
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: little cooler for us, so it's kind of nice. I
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: know some of the big guys like that instead of
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: being in that heat in Jacksonville.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: What did you do with your day off?
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: My wife's here, so I went and visited her in
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: the city for a little bit, just kind of relaxed,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: walked around. Uh, you know, ate at some different spots
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and got to explore a little bit. So it was
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: it was great to see her and spend a little
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: time with her.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Is pre buff at all? Do you learn anything about
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: the city or even that here at the grove the
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: grounds here?
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I don't, I mean I do. I say, I'm not
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: a history buff at all. I do enjoy history and
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: learn about things. I don't know a ton about the area,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: to be honest, I feel like usually when we're here,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: it's pretty busy and we're kind of focusing on the
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: game and trying to win that. But I am intrigued
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: and I think it's cool just you know everything here
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: want the grove, but also just in London is so
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: so much older than in America, so the history behind it,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: you know, you pick up kind of bits and pieces
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: as you go. I don't know a ton, but it
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: is interesting here and hearing the different things about it.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Try I just want to past this game for a second.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: But in relation to this game, so following this game,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: you guys have the Packers, Eagles, Vikings lines and then
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the Texans. How important is it that you get to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: win this week? Considering that you have that hard rhis
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: just coming up.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: To be honest, you know, I've played long enough to
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: know it doesn't really matter how you play every team.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Every team in this league is a good team and
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: can beat you. It doesn't matter what their record are,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: or what the record is, how well they played in
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: the past. It's any given Sunday. So for us, it's
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: taking it one week at a time. And yeah, we
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: do have to just just find a way to win
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: this game this week because we have to. We have
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: to get some momentum going in the right direction, and
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: we can't let this just keep going in the wrong
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: direction and keep losing. You know, the season is moving
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: quickly and we need to win some games to get
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: ourselves back in position. So we understand what we have
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: to do. But you can't jump ahead, and we got
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: to just try to take care of business this week
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: and then next week we'll move on to whoever you say,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I guess Packers next week, So that'll that'll come when
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: it gets here. You get in trouble when you start
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: looking ahead. You know, I just think that it's too
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: hard to win in this league to look ahead and
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: think about who you got to be, what's coming up,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: how many games you gotta win to get there or whatever.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: You just got to try to win one every week.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Is there a specific specific part of the offense that
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: you're looking to kind of improve the rest just game
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: to be aheaded.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Restens just everyone, you know, I think being more consistent,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: including myself. And that's that's kind of been what we've
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: struggled with, you know, quite honestly the past couple of
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: years when we haven't played well, is just the inconsistency,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: whether it's for me or anyone at any given moment.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: You're never going to be perfect, but just consistently doing
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: your job, communicating, having having the details down. There's some
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: just some little things out there that keep showing up
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: and we got to correct them. So playing cleaner, taking
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: care of the ball, you know, try to have a
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: turnover free game on Sunday, and I think that's a
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: big step. That's I mean, that's the biggest part of
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: this game is taking care of the ball. Honestly, that's
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: the biggest indication of winning or losing is if you
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: how many how many turnovers you have, how many turnovers
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: you got as a defense. Both of those things go
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: hand in hand, and we got to control that better.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: As an offense. Okay, just just on.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: You've got another young quarterback making a second start. Wouldn't
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: want to give him any advice go into the game.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: But after the game, when you talked to Drake May,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: what advice would you give him as he starts his
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: career in the NFL.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I've met Drake before. I like him, you know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: I think he's a he's got a lot of talent,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: he's got a bright future. I know what it's like
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: to be obviously a young quarterback in this league not
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: too long ago, and I wish him the best. You know,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: it's a challenge and every week is a learning opportunity
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and you just have to use it to make you
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: better moving forward. And that's even still going on my
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: fourth year. I'm still doing that. You learn something new
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: every week and it's challenging. And I think he's got
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: all the tools to be successful. So I'll definitely talk
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: to him after the game, and I wish them the
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: best of luck, obviously, like I said last week, not
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: on Sunday, but you know, I do wish him the
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: best of luck, and I've heard great things about him
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: many else Trivia.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: We saw some nice moments from Evan Ingram at a
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: weekend when he came back or he left the team
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: in receiving your arts, what does he give this offense
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: in terms of being able to turn a corner and
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: really find your feet again.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a you know, he's a huge part of
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: our You see what he was able to do on
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Sunday just in his first game back. I mean it's
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: pretty impressive being out what five games or what's it four?
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: I think it's four games, being out four games and
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: then coming back and playing that well. So he's a
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: spark for us. It just opens up everything else in
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: our offense having the thread of him on the field. Obviously,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: when when he touches the ball, he can turn it
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: into a big game just because he's so good after
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: the catch. He stretches the field vertically, and he's a
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: really good matchup for us on whether it's safety, linebackers, whoever,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: it's a really good matchup. So I think it does
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: add a challenge to defending our offense when he's on
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: the field. So I mean, I'm just gonna keep using
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: that to our advantage like we have in the years past. Awesome,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Thank you all appreciate it.
