Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, everybody, Uh, it's fun looking at this TV
- 0:05Speaker 1: screen here. Before we get going, I just uh, I'll
- 0:11Speaker 1: actually make it right from the last couple of media
- 0:14Speaker 1: things we did the last over last day or two.
- 0:16Speaker 1: But just want to shout out our our twelves. Man,
- 0:19Speaker 1: it was an incredible atmosphere. I had some friends that
- 0:23Speaker 1: live in Nashville. They were telling me about the you know,
- 0:28Speaker 1: you know, the downtown scene was just filled with the
- 0:30Speaker 1: Seahawks fans. Everywhere, people flying in, all their plans are
- 0:34Speaker 1: filled with with Hawks fans. And I'll tell you what,
- 0:37Speaker 1: there's some great moments throughout that game where you could
- 0:40Speaker 1: feel the energy generated from our from the twelves on
- 0:43Speaker 1: the sideline, and uh, I know our guys really appreciate it.
- 0:46Speaker 1: And uh, I just want to say thank you for
- 0:49Speaker 1: for making the effort and all the enthusiasm. It was
- 0:52Speaker 1: a it was it was really a sight to see
- 0:54Speaker 1: something something that's pretty rare. You don't really I don't
- 0:57Speaker 1: think I've ever seen that in my career, just that
- 0:58Speaker 1: that amount of fans on on a road trip. So
- 1:01Speaker 1: thank you. Brian.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Yeah, coach, obviously, you've talked about how important toughness and
- 1:08Speaker 2: reliability is for players and value you guys want to instill.
- 1:12Speaker 2: When you've got a player who might be a little
- 1:13Speaker 2: bit hurt and they're adamant that they want to play,
- 1:16Speaker 2: and you've got training staff that's saying, maybe be a
- 1:19Speaker 2: little cautious. How do you kind of balance the line
- 1:21Speaker 2: of allowing them to just demonstrate the toughness and reliability,
- 1:24Speaker 2: but also maybe protecting them from themselves.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great point. It's it's tricky, you know that.
- 1:28Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think what I'm learning is,
- 1:31Speaker 1: you know, it's not like there's a you know, you
- 1:34Speaker 1: get an image or you get a test and then
- 1:36Speaker 1: they all of a sudden, there's some sign that comes
- 1:37Speaker 1: popping up and says yes or no. You know, it's's
- 1:40Speaker 1: it's it's a matter of opinion, and there's you know,
- 1:43Speaker 1: you're operating in gray. In the gray a lot, but
- 1:45Speaker 1: no pun intended. I think I think the way I
- 1:49Speaker 1: see it is, you know, if we've deemed it safe
- 1:52Speaker 1: for them to play, and they're not at like added
- 1:55Speaker 1: risk of you know, putting themselves in danger of getting worse. Uh,
- 2:00Speaker 1: that's kind of the line that we're looking at, you know,
- 2:02Speaker 1: I think that's our responsibility as the club to to
- 2:05Speaker 1: not put our guys in danger. But when they're ready
- 2:09Speaker 1: and willing, it definitely, uh, definitely makes you appreciate, you know,
- 2:12Speaker 1: the effort and the toughness for sure. And there's time.
- 2:14Speaker 1: You know, there's been situations where we've had to make
- 2:16Speaker 1: the decision for guys that have wanted to play, you know,
- 2:20Speaker 1: because it was in their best interest even though they
- 2:22Speaker 1: wanted to give it a go. So it's a it's
- 2:26Speaker 1: a it's a tricky situation, it really is. It's it's
- 2:29Speaker 1: it's really a case by case deal and takes a
- 2:31Speaker 1: lot of trust.
- 2:33Speaker 2: And then are you expecting Julian Love and Eric Sobert
- 2:37Speaker 2: to practice this week?
- 2:39Speaker 1: Yeah, we're We're still working through Julian situation and same
- 2:43Speaker 1: thing with with Eric so Well. We'll see on Wednesday
- 2:46Speaker 1: what the what the plan is right now, we don't
- 2:48Speaker 1: really have a clear enough plan to report. Okay, Thanks John.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Yeah, Mike, when we talked to Clint Kubiak last week,
- 2:58Speaker 3: he said he was seeing a lot of growth in
- 3:00Speaker 3: the run game and another solid game I think five
- 3:02Speaker 3: point seven yards of care for you guys, just where
- 3:04Speaker 3: are you seeing the improvement there and how does that
- 3:07Speaker 3: help you guys offensively as a whole.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Yeah, this is to your point. This is something that
- 3:14Speaker 1: we've talked about for really the length of the season,
- 3:18Speaker 1: and we felt like the effort was there, but the
- 3:21Speaker 1: detail we kept wanted to chase and we felt like,
- 3:23Speaker 1: you know a lot of these runs were a block
- 3:25Speaker 1: away and that either that's uh, you know, it's either
- 3:28Speaker 1: at the second level the receivers, you know, blocking, it's
- 3:30Speaker 1: hitting our targets, going to the right people, initial movement,
- 3:35Speaker 1: you know, get being in and out of the right plays.
- 3:36Speaker 1: There's kind of a reason on every play. But it
- 3:39Speaker 1: also felt like we were doing the right things and
- 3:41Speaker 1: we're on the right track and just we got to
- 3:43Speaker 1: keep keep firing away at it and and staying the course.
- 3:47Speaker 1: And our guys have done that. I felt like everybody's
- 3:50Speaker 1: really improved, including the running backs, and I think you're
- 3:52Speaker 1: seeing you know, the results of that of that process,
- 3:58Speaker 1: and our coach is doing a great job scheme in it,
- 4:00Speaker 1: and you know, we expect to stay on this track.
- 4:02Speaker 1: This is going to be really important for us to
- 4:04Speaker 1: be able to run the ball end of November and December.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Jen on the flip side of that, coach, when you
- 4:12Speaker 4: look at run defense. It has been a long time
- 4:14Speaker 4: since we have seen a one hundred yard rusher. When
- 4:17Speaker 4: you get to this point in the season, how demorlizing
- 4:20Speaker 4: is that when you know you can count on the
- 4:22Speaker 4: defense to come through in those moments.
- 4:25Speaker 1: Well, it's a catalyst for the rest of the things
- 4:27Speaker 1: we want to be able to do on defense and
- 4:30Speaker 1: putting these offenses in, you know, exclusively passing situations, and
- 4:36Speaker 1: when we do get in those situations, what we learn
- 4:38Speaker 1: from this game is we have to execute it, you know,
- 4:41Speaker 1: execute better rushing coverage, working better together. But speaking of
- 4:45Speaker 1: the run defense, the guys are playing really hard, they're
- 4:48Speaker 1: playing sound when we do run pressures. I think our
- 4:50Speaker 1: pressure execution right now is probably the best it's been
- 4:54Speaker 1: in the last two years. And there's some really great
- 4:58Speaker 1: stuff going on communication wise and making sure everybody's on
- 5:02Speaker 1: the same page. And so that's a tribute to those
- 5:04Speaker 1: guys preparation and being bought in of how we want
- 5:07Speaker 1: to operate as well. So that's something that we need
- 5:10Speaker 1: to be able to continue to do.
- 5:13Speaker 5: Bob, Yeah, my first any updates on the guys who
- 5:17Speaker 5: were heard yesterday, Tie or Chaz.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Or George Hawney, let's see. Yeah, those guys, Uh, I
- 5:28Speaker 1: really don't know what to say. I mean that they're
- 5:31Speaker 1: they're banged up, they get you know, they got their
- 5:33Speaker 1: respective injuries. I would say that I ours, you know,
- 5:38Speaker 1: part of the equation with those guys something we have
- 5:42Speaker 1: to decide. And it's really going to be a function
- 5:44Speaker 1: of how that some of these tests come back and
- 5:45Speaker 1: how they progress throughout the rest of the week. Uh,
- 5:48Speaker 1: we'll see what their availability is for this Sunday, but
- 5:51Speaker 1: they probably have to turn a corner to be to
- 5:52Speaker 1: be available this week.
- 5:55Speaker 5: If if ties out then And with Julian with say
- 5:58Speaker 5: with the safety depth, is that I.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Was gonna play with one safety and put everybody else
- 6:04Speaker 1: in the box. I'm just kidding. I don't know. We're
- 6:06Speaker 1: gonna we have to figure something out.
- 6:08Speaker 5: And one more for me. What did you think of
- 6:11Speaker 5: Sam Darnold today yesterday when you looked at it on film?
- 6:14Speaker 1: Well, I thought there was a lot of there's several
- 6:17Speaker 1: situations where he's working through his progressions and getting the
- 6:19Speaker 1: number three, including the backs to keep the ball moving forward.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I thought those were great plays for us and then
- 6:25Speaker 1: you know, identifying opportunities to throw it downfield that you know,
- 6:28Speaker 1: obviously the man covers the jacks to really spark the
- 6:31Speaker 1: day was was great and I thought he made some
- 6:34Speaker 1: great decisions in the red zone. I mean, even even
- 6:36Speaker 1: the play at the end of the half out of
- 6:38Speaker 1: Jack's right there in the on the back line, I
- 6:40Speaker 1: thought was a great play call and great execution by
- 6:43Speaker 1: our guys and we're you know, inches away from you know,
- 6:45Speaker 1: scoring a touchdown there at the end of the half
- 6:47Speaker 1: and with the ability to double up going to the
- 6:50Speaker 1: second half. Mobs veta a Mike, why.
- 6:56Speaker 6: Is how is such an important element for your team?
- 7:00Speaker 4: This morning?
- 7:00Speaker 1: You talk why? Why? What power? Power?
- 7:04Speaker 6: Yeah, you talked about like the power generation of when
- 7:07Speaker 6: you're tackling and then the power to finish. Why is
- 7:10Speaker 6: just anal fundamental to your team and how you want
- 7:14Speaker 6: them to do well?
- 7:14Speaker 1: I think, I think, I mean, our guys are powerful
- 7:17Speaker 1: in their own right, but I think it's gonna come
- 7:18Speaker 1: from like multiple people at the point of attack. You know,
- 7:22Speaker 1: I can be the strongest man in the world, but
- 7:23Speaker 1: if I'm one on one with you in the open field,
- 7:25Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard for me to knock you backwards
- 7:27Speaker 1: and get you on the ground. Like it's just guys
- 7:29Speaker 1: in this league are two are too uh too talented,
- 7:32Speaker 1: and so it's really a team game. You got to
- 7:34Speaker 1: make every tackle of ice tackle. You got to restrict
- 7:36Speaker 1: space in the box. Offensively, you have to be able
- 7:40Speaker 1: to sustain blocks and uh use the proper angles and
- 7:44Speaker 1: and really just have the resolve to keep moving forward.
- 7:46Speaker 1: So it's simple and not easy. You know, it's not
- 7:50Speaker 1: easy to do that on a down end, down out basis,
- 7:52Speaker 1: and I think that's what separates the great teams in
- 7:55Speaker 1: our league.
- 7:57Speaker 6: And then on your red zone, what are you seeing
- 7:59Speaker 6: there in terms of the needing to finish. I mean,
- 8:02Speaker 6: you can't score touchdown every time, but you better score
- 8:05Speaker 6: more than nine.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we need to improve in both both phases,
- 8:08Speaker 1: offense and defense. It's the same things. It's it's you
- 8:12Speaker 1: got to keep the ball moving forward. You know, you
- 8:14Speaker 1: can't go backwards. So when we've done that as an offense,
- 8:18Speaker 1: we scored touchdowns. Saw that with the with Zach's touchdown
- 8:22Speaker 1: there on the left side, uh in the second half,
- 8:27Speaker 1: So that's a positive, you know. And defensively, you got
- 8:30Speaker 1: to be able to stop the run and then when
- 8:31Speaker 1: they're forced to forced to throw it, you got it.
- 8:34Speaker 1: You can't let them scramble and extend plays and throw
- 8:36Speaker 1: it past the sticks. I mean it's really the same formula.
- 8:39Speaker 1: It's just you got it. You can't let them do
- 8:42Speaker 1: like a like a four yard play on the ten
- 8:44Speaker 1: yard line. Is you know of the distance to the
- 8:49Speaker 1: end zone. If you get a four yard play on
- 8:50Speaker 1: the minus forty you're looking at it's no big deal,
- 8:53Speaker 1: you know so yards you're at a premium down there.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Thank you, ery.
- 9:00Speaker 4: Oh. When you watch back the tape, what did you
- 9:02Speaker 4: think of Byron Murphy's game that he had?
- 9:05Speaker 1: Uh, that was one of Byron's best games. I thought
- 9:07Speaker 1: he was dominant.
- 9:08Speaker 7: Uh.
- 9:09Speaker 1: The playing then on fourth and short was just an
- 9:12Speaker 1: incredible play. Really took on three defenders, set the point
- 9:16Speaker 1: of attack. I thought he rushed really well. There's some
- 9:19Speaker 1: there's some times where we have to augment our communication
- 9:22Speaker 1: with him and up front of what we intend to
- 9:24Speaker 1: do and how we intend to work together. But he's
- 9:27Speaker 1: playing at a really high level right now and happy
- 9:30Speaker 1: to see it.
- 9:31Speaker 4: And then with Jackson, do you ever have conversations with
- 9:34Speaker 4: him about the kind of season that he's having and
- 9:36Speaker 4: how impressive it is what he's doing.
- 9:40Speaker 1: No, now, I just normal conversations and he I guess
- 9:45Speaker 1: what's understood, doesn't doesn't need to be spoken. It's just
- 9:48Speaker 1: like just keep being you, brother. I mean, just same
- 9:53Speaker 1: thing with the rest of our team. I mean, he's
- 9:55Speaker 1: playing a really integral part of what we're doing right
- 9:57Speaker 1: now offensively and as a team. But but he's still
- 10:01Speaker 1: part of the team, you know, he's and the way
- 10:03Speaker 1: that he approaches every day and the way he practices
- 10:05Speaker 1: and prepares helps our team, you know, the best it
- 10:09Speaker 1: can go in into games. So but yeah, it's no
- 10:12Speaker 1: special conversations. I mean, he one play at a time.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Michael Sean, Mike, you said after the game you felt Ken.
- 10:23Speaker 6: You've used like felt as your scripture before just yesterday specifically.
- 10:28Speaker 4: What did you see to make you say that?
- 10:30Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, well I think I think he was decisive,
- 10:33Speaker 1: running the football on his tracks and making making fast decisions,
- 10:36Speaker 1: which was great. He took got us out of a
- 10:39Speaker 1: couple of tough situations. And then I felt him in
- 10:41Speaker 1: the past game. You know, I got to talking about
- 10:43Speaker 1: earlier when Sam got you know, uh later on his
- 10:45Speaker 1: progressions and getting finding Ken lay in the down to
- 10:48Speaker 1: created a couple of explosives for us. Which is and
- 10:50Speaker 1: Zach for that matter. But we got to keep doing that,
- 10:54Speaker 1: you know, find him in the past game in and
- 10:56Speaker 1: keep the running game going. But he played fast, some
- 10:59Speaker 1: great plays on the sideline, some plays on the sideline.
- 11:01Speaker 1: We want to play a little bit better and finish
- 11:03Speaker 1: plays a little bit in a better position. But but
- 11:07Speaker 1: on the right track for sure.
- 11:09Speaker 3: And you had said, you know, he had earned more opportunities,
- 11:11Speaker 3: and the snap counts and the usage reflect that. Would
- 11:14Speaker 3: you like that to continue, maybe not the specific numbers,
- 11:17Speaker 3: but just kind.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Of yeah more. Yeah, I think we're I think we're
- 11:21Speaker 1: I think we'll stick to a similar plan. But I'll
- 11:23Speaker 1: tell you what, when Zach went in there, he made
- 11:25Speaker 1: some big time runs for us. He made you know,
- 11:27Speaker 1: the two minute run that got the got us the
- 11:28Speaker 1: first down there on second long really ensured that we
- 11:32Speaker 1: were going to end the end the half of the ball,
- 11:34Speaker 1: which was great. We talked about the red zone all
- 11:36Speaker 1: the time. I mean, that was a heck of a
- 11:37Speaker 1: run that he had that scored a touchdown, had to
- 11:40Speaker 1: make the corner miss. So Zach's playing at really high
- 11:42Speaker 1: level now as well. But but Ken's also playing at
- 11:45Speaker 1: a really high level. Thank you. Curtis.
- 11:50Speaker 7: Yeah, Mike, what'd you think of Patt O'Connell's day when
- 11:52Speaker 7: you went back and watched it again and saw.
- 11:53Speaker 3: What it looked like?
- 11:54Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm happy for for for Pat, He's again
- 11:59Speaker 1: we've talked about, you know, hes prepared, all the work
- 12:01Speaker 1: that he's put in. But I thought he played a
- 12:03Speaker 1: really good game. I mean, there's the one play that
- 12:05Speaker 1: he jumped on the first drive. I think that play
- 12:08Speaker 1: actually I think actually like making mistake early probably helped
- 12:10Speaker 1: him like calm his nerves a little bit. So probably
- 12:13Speaker 1: a cost of doing business on that play. But I
- 12:16Speaker 1: thought he was poised. I thought he played physically, played square,
- 12:21Speaker 1: executed really well. Just really just felt like we could
- 12:26Speaker 1: call our whole defense with him out there and be
- 12:28Speaker 1: able to execute a high level. So attribute to him
- 12:31Speaker 1: being ready to go.
- 12:33Speaker 6: And what do you think the outlook is for Tyree's
- 12:34Speaker 6: and Ernest this week?
- 12:35Speaker 1: Did?
- 12:35Speaker 2: Do you feel like they have a chance to get
- 12:37Speaker 2: back for you here?
- 12:38Speaker 1: Yeah, hopeful for both. It looks like Tyras is on
- 12:40Speaker 1: track to practice on Wednesday. We'll see, you know, EJ's
- 12:44Speaker 1: normal like rep load throughout the week. We take care
- 12:48Speaker 1: of him a little bit on Wednesday, So we'll take
- 12:50Speaker 1: that as it goes. But I know he's he's easy
- 12:52Speaker 1: itch into play, So we'll see how the knee feels
- 12:55Speaker 1: throughout the week. Greg, Mike, we're in.
- 13:00Speaker 7: A hermetically sealed press box. We didn't hear did Barnard
- 13:04Speaker 7: do a hard count or.
- 13:05Speaker 1: I have no idea what that means? What does that mean?
- 13:09Speaker 6: We couldn't hear that.
- 13:10Speaker 7: We couldn't hear the snapcout. Did barnar do a hard
- 13:12Speaker 7: counter or they just jump off side?
- 13:15Speaker 1: We had we had cadence on that play and they
- 13:17Speaker 1: ended up jumping off sides.
- 13:19Speaker 7: Yeah, when did you add cadence to the barner repertoire
- 13:22Speaker 7: on them?
- 13:23Speaker 1: We've actually we've actually done that. We've actually done that
- 13:25Speaker 1: throughout the season. We haven't got anybody to jump yet.
- 13:28Speaker 1: So but that was the first time that it worked.
- 13:33Speaker 7: And then after the game they're stay in the locker room.
- 13:36Speaker 7: Grey's Abel told us he was pretty much humbled by Simmons.
- 13:39Speaker 7: He thought that Simmons really took it to him from
- 13:43Speaker 7: what we were watching a little bit, maybe not, So what.
- 13:45Speaker 4: Do you think?
- 13:46Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Simmons is a premier player on the league,
- 13:49Speaker 1: and like anytime you're going against a guy like that,
- 13:51Speaker 1: he's gonna get He's going to get his place. You know,
- 13:54Speaker 1: it's right, but it's a matter of competing and fighting.
- 13:57Speaker 1: And I thought Gray can during that played a great game.
- 14:01Speaker 1: There's some there's some plays where you know, Gray sustained
- 14:05Speaker 1: a block or was it in a combination block on
- 14:08Speaker 1: Simmons that really helped us spring a run. I'm thinking
- 14:09Speaker 1: of the run against uh Sharps down on the red zone.
- 14:13Speaker 1: So just really proud of his effort and his competitiveness.
- 14:16Speaker 1: I mean, the guy's not backing down to anybody and
- 14:18Speaker 1: won the opportunity to go against him, and uh it's
- 14:22Speaker 1: a great experience for him too. Probably probably to Gray's
- 14:24Speaker 1: point is this is uh as bad as good as
- 14:27Speaker 1: the NFL has to offer, and and it's a good
- 14:29Speaker 1: measuring stick for where his game.
- 14:30Speaker 7: Is and where because he's gone against that, We've been
- 14:34Speaker 7: talking about how and you've been talking about Grady's been,
- 14:37Speaker 7: but how against Simmons. Is he there yet or that's
- 14:41Speaker 7: just where he's trying to get to.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I think I don't know. I don't
- 14:46Speaker 1: want to like put a grade on where his game is,
- 14:48Speaker 1: but I think it shows you where he can go
- 14:50Speaker 1: and where you know that that the progress and the
- 14:52Speaker 1: and the growth that's available to him and knowing Gray
- 14:55Speaker 1: and how he works and seeing you know, how he
- 14:58Speaker 1: operates up to this point. I you know, I don't
- 15:00Speaker 1: expect nothing less for him to you know, keep growing
- 15:03Speaker 1: to a premier guard in our league. Thank you, Brian.
- 15:11Speaker 2: Yeah, coach, I'm sure you get questions all the time
- 15:13Speaker 2: from people that are interested in getting into coaching in football. Yeah,
- 15:17Speaker 2: what advice do you give them for getting started? And
- 15:20Speaker 2: is there like a book or you know, anything else
- 15:23Speaker 2: that you kind of recommend for people that are kind
- 15:25Speaker 2: of getting going in there.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Oh? Man, Yeah, I've been I've been really fortunate to
- 15:31Speaker 1: have like opportunities come as as I've been younger, and
- 15:35Speaker 1: so I think people, I think people, it's really it's
- 15:43Speaker 1: really important to be an asset for what the job
- 15:48Speaker 1: is being asked for you for where you are in
- 15:50Speaker 1: that moment. So it's about providing like value for your team.
- 15:56Speaker 1: And it could it could be something as simple as
- 15:58Speaker 1: like I just got to make sure that inter set
- 16:00Speaker 1: up every day at six thirty, Like that's a win,
- 16:02Speaker 1: you know, and then stack that and then what happens
- 16:05Speaker 1: is is if you're a guy that or a girl
- 16:07Speaker 1: that keeps that keeps hitting those marks and showing that
- 16:11Speaker 1: they can add value and take things to another level
- 16:15Speaker 1: no matter what the person's asking you that's that you're
- 16:19Speaker 1: working with, They're going to keep adding responsibility to your
- 16:21Speaker 1: plate and at some point someone's going to recognize that
- 16:24Speaker 1: at some point, whether it's someone that organization or on
- 16:27Speaker 1: that team or another on another team. Coaches, we all talk,
- 16:31Speaker 1: and you don't get jobs by telling everybody how sweet
- 16:36Speaker 1: you are. You get jobs by coaches recommending people for
- 16:39Speaker 1: you that have put so much invested in time into
- 16:45Speaker 1: you know, helping really that the that the coach ahead
- 16:47Speaker 1: of them succeed and we respect that and the people
- 16:51Speaker 1: that have done that, in my opinion, have earned the
- 16:54Speaker 1: right to kind of have their careers progress and that
- 16:58Speaker 1: What that also does is it really you learn the
- 17:00Speaker 1: game and really go about it so you have a
- 17:02Speaker 1: solid foundation so when you do get those opportunities, you
- 17:06Speaker 1: can make the best out of them rather than just
- 17:08Speaker 1: this quick ascension and all of a sudden you're in
- 17:10Speaker 1: a position where you're not ready for it, and that's
- 17:13Speaker 1: really not the best thing for for anybody involved. So
- 17:16Speaker 1: that would be my advice.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Thanks coach.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Bob.
- 17:26Speaker 5: Sorry there one more on the oppotential line. What kind
- 17:30Speaker 5: of season do you feel like Anthony Bradford has had?
- 17:32Speaker 5: And then and then going to a couple of we've
- 17:33Speaker 5: had a couple of weeks now with Olu, how you
- 17:35Speaker 5: felt like he's played there as well?
- 17:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, look, Abs, he's playing really, he's playing hard.
- 17:41Speaker 1: He's playing he's playing hard, he's playing physical. I think
- 17:46Speaker 1: the right side of our line has really developed over
- 17:48Speaker 1: the course of the season. I include Abe and that
- 17:49Speaker 1: conversation as well. You know, Abe's coming off an injury,
- 17:53Speaker 1: gaining confidence with his play, kind of getting back to
- 17:58Speaker 1: his old form. I think Ab is the same thing.
- 18:00Speaker 1: And then and uh, I'll tell you what, ol Ola
- 18:03Speaker 1: did another really nice job yesterday. He played hard. I
- 18:07Speaker 1: think he made some a lot of like unsung blocks
- 18:09Speaker 1: that don't really go noticed, and I deserves a lot
- 18:12Speaker 1: of credit for that. I felt like our targets were
- 18:14Speaker 1: on point for the majority of the game, especially in
- 18:17Speaker 1: the run game. And uh, you know, Ola is the
- 18:19Speaker 1: one running the show on that front, so he deserves
- 18:21Speaker 1: credit for that. Okay, thanks everyone, We'll see you Wednesday,
- 18:27Speaker 1: all right. Thank you
