Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's change for you guys a second half detensively and
- 0:02Speaker 1: what maybe was tough in the first half. Uh, I
- 0:06Speaker 1: think we still settled in. You know, our calls kind
- 0:09Speaker 1: of got a little sharper. Uh we were playing with
- 0:12Speaker 1: a little more chip on our shoulder. I mean, the
- 0:14Speaker 1: main thing that Michael was stressing this game is that
- 0:15Speaker 1: we had to start fast, and we did it, and
- 0:17Speaker 1: so we were just playing catch up the whole game.
- 0:20Speaker 1: When something happens, like losing your quarterback like Gino, how
- 0:23Speaker 1: the leaders of this team kind of banded things together
- 0:25Speaker 1: in that situation. Yeah, it's tough. Gino is kind of
- 0:28Speaker 1: the heart of this thing, and uh, I think, yeah,
- 0:32Speaker 1: the leaders everybody just you know, kind of has that
- 0:34Speaker 1: no flinch mentality. It's tough. But defensively, we know our
- 0:38Speaker 1: let's set up even more for our offense, and offense
- 0:40Speaker 1: guys were just stepping up knowing that they had to
- 0:42Speaker 1: get things going without 'em as we see you know
- 0:44Speaker 1: Sharpernay's touchdown and they makes some they made some plays.
- 0:47Speaker 1: So yeah, it's tough. I hope he's okay. I'm not
- 0:49Speaker 1: sure what happened, but leaders stepped up. Junction you wanting
- 0:53Speaker 1: to start fast, which I'm sure is always an emphasis.
- 0:55Speaker 1: But why do you think it was a struggle to
- 0:57Speaker 1: do that today? I think they had a good plan
- 1:00Speaker 1: and we've been doing such a good job past, you know,
- 1:04Speaker 1: I will say six weeks of stopping the run, and
- 1:06Speaker 1: we just did it early on, and so a lot
- 1:08Speaker 1: of them to open up their game, kind of get
- 1:10Speaker 1: everything going. Yeah, we let you know, a pretty good
- 1:13Speaker 1: running back just get started early, which defensively you can't do.
- 1:16Speaker 1: So there is correct. Obviously we cleaned it up as
- 1:19Speaker 1: the game went on, but just you know, he can't
- 1:22Speaker 1: be that loose early on? Three tough one next week?
- 1:26Speaker 1: What's to keep you guys? Kind of put this behind you.
- 1:29Speaker 1: I think it's it's good that we treat each win
- 1:33Speaker 1: the same as the losses. Obviously they hurt a little
- 1:35Speaker 1: more when you lose all that stuff, But kind of
- 1:37Speaker 1: Wednesday or Monday, we're going in and just we're with
- 1:41Speaker 1: fine tooth comb just going through stuff. We call things
- 1:45Speaker 1: how it is, win or loss, and so that mentality
- 1:47Speaker 1: is the same, and so you don't have to panic.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Nobody has to tighten up just because we have three
- 1:51Speaker 1: games left. Everything we want to achieve is kind of
- 1:53Speaker 1: out there for us, thankfully. And so we're gonna treat
- 1:56Speaker 1: this week just how we treat every week. You know,
- 1:58Speaker 1: detail it Monday, get back after it Wednesday, and just
- 2:02Speaker 1: be ready for the vikings on Sunday. You think schematically
- 2:04Speaker 1: early in the game from the run, game wise, it
- 2:07Speaker 1: was giving you guys some problems today. It was just
- 2:10Speaker 1: a lot of movement. I think it allowed, you know,
- 2:13Speaker 1: kind of Jacob to hit the hole pretty quick, and
- 2:16Speaker 1: it was getting on our safety, getting on me, getting
- 2:18Speaker 1: especially COVID in that first half early I was getting
- 2:21Speaker 1: on them and yeah, I'm not sure kind of what
- 2:25Speaker 1: they saw on what we were doing, but we shifted. Obviously,
- 2:27Speaker 1: Mike uh saw something and we shifted what we were
- 2:30Speaker 1: doing and we were able to kind of bollow them
- 2:32Speaker 1: up going after that, you know, first quarter, first half,
- 2:39Speaker 1: very quick. Appreciate you guys. Thank you
