- 0:15Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean, it ain't really too much
- 0:17Speaker 1: you can't do. I feel like anybody really got something
- 0:20Speaker 1: to say about it. I would love for them to
- 0:21Speaker 1: tell me exactly what they would have did when.
- 0:23Speaker 3: You when you saw the replay for the first time,
- 0:26Speaker 3: did it just like did you what was your initial reaction?
- 0:28Speaker 1: I mean, if you really do that, if you watch,
- 0:32Speaker 1: I know they just showed the highlight, but if you
- 0:33Speaker 1: watch like after the play, like after he jumped, I
- 0:35Speaker 1: looked back at him.
- 0:36Speaker 5: I was like, I don't know how he did it, but.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Yeah, it was he touched by God.
- 0:42Speaker 4: Did you see it on the replay board first or did.
- 0:44Speaker 5: You see it on the replay? I say that jump
- 0:47Speaker 5: right over me?
- 0:51Speaker 4: How much respect?
- 0:52Speaker 3: I mean, you guys are a one percent league and
- 0:54Speaker 3: not that many guys can do what you do, But
- 0:55Speaker 3: then he can do stuff that maybe is different.
- 0:58Speaker 4: Than even most of them.
- 1:00Speaker 5: Yeah, I got a lot of respect for him.
- 1:01Speaker 1: I mean that that's the first time that's ever been
- 1:03Speaker 1: done in history. I mean he kind of hurt of
- 1:05Speaker 1: me backwards, you know. So, I mean I got a
- 1:07Speaker 1: lot of, you know what I'm saying, respect for him
- 1:09Speaker 1: because I don't think nobody else in the league can
- 1:13Speaker 1: actually make that play and successfully hurt me. Like it
- 1:15Speaker 1: ain't like I went low or nothing like that. Like
- 1:17Speaker 1: I was standing up tak and he's still hurting meself.
- 1:20Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I ain't not too many people that could
- 1:21Speaker 1: do that.
- 1:22Speaker 3: You're willing to talk about you Look, you're having fun
- 1:24Speaker 3: with it.
- 1:24Speaker 4: It's okay.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't say trip, I mean say, hey, what
- 1:28Speaker 1: else you can do about it?
- 1:30Speaker 5: I mean he said that's all.
- 1:31Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, more extras than those. What do you guys
- 1:34Speaker 4: have to do to stop giving him to so many explosives?
- 1:38Speaker 5: MM?
- 1:39Speaker 1: I think just trust that you know, the other ten
- 1:43Speaker 1: on the field of you know, gonna be there to
- 1:44Speaker 1: do their job.
- 1:45Speaker 5: You know.
- 1:45Speaker 1: I think sometimes uh, I expeaks to myself, I kind
- 1:48Speaker 1: of get caught and try to make the big play.
- 1:50Speaker 1: You know. Sometimes you know, you just gotta trust do
- 1:51Speaker 1: your job. And trusted, you know, the other people in
- 1:53Speaker 1: the field and me be doing their job. So I
- 1:54Speaker 1: think that's a big thing we gotta do.
- 1:56Speaker 6: What do you say on Minnesota's receivers, I know they
- 1:58Speaker 6: all got trusting Jeorgson.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Around, They got a good group, you know, they got
- 2:02Speaker 1: have a good passing attack, and I throw the ball everywhere,
- 2:04Speaker 1: you know, So I think we just got to rid
- 2:06Speaker 1: our keys, you know, and play solotball.
- 2:09Speaker 3: How how much are you guys playing through right now
- 2:11Speaker 3: as a unit, not just you, but in the middle
- 2:13Speaker 3: of the season and and just banged up and toughened
- 2:16Speaker 3: it out.
- 2:17Speaker 4: I think everybody saw.
- 2:18Speaker 6: You know, it's week ten in the NFL, so you're
- 2:21Speaker 6: h We always tell ourselves the first aid campus is
- 2:23Speaker 6: bestially gonna feel all year.
- 2:24Speaker 4: So there's no excuses.
- 2:25Speaker 5: U's what we signed up for. So we just gotta
- 2:27Speaker 5: keep battling through.
- 2:28Speaker 3: How much do you get used to that part of
- 2:29Speaker 3: it when you've been in the league for a while,
- 2:31Speaker 3: And then how much respect do you have for a
- 2:33Speaker 3: guy like Anton who's battling that as a young player
- 2:35Speaker 3: in the league.
- 2:36Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, watching the older guys, That's that's when I
- 2:40Speaker 6: got my appreciation, was watching those seven eight years. You know,
- 2:43Speaker 6: ten year old year old guys, you know, fighting through
- 2:46Speaker 6: stuff like that, and that's there's no excuse for me
- 2:48Speaker 6: to ankle injury. I saw them doing it, so I'm
- 2:51Speaker 6: gonna practice through that and keep going. So, you know,
- 2:53Speaker 6: seeing Anton get you know, he went to the tent,
- 2:55Speaker 6: got taped up, and he came back out.
- 2:56Speaker 5: On the field, So it was good to see.
- 2:57Speaker 6: Uh, he's tough and I'm glad he's right.
- 2:59Speaker 4: Bobby.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Yeah, do you do you have that responsibility as an
- 3:03Speaker 3: old guy to kind of share that with the young
- 3:05Speaker 3: guys or is it more lead by example?
- 3:07Speaker 6: Just try to lead by example. You know, I think
- 3:09Speaker 6: people handle pain differently, so I'm not going to tell
- 3:11Speaker 6: you that you're not hurt.
- 3:13Speaker 4: You know people.
- 3:15Speaker 6: People I would say pain bothers people differently. So I'm
- 3:18Speaker 6: saying I'm just gonna do what I can do to
- 3:20Speaker 6: to be out there for whoever, and I know people
- 3:23Speaker 6: will do the same.
- 3:23Speaker 3: Looks like you're playing, well, is it hard to battle
- 3:26Speaker 3: both when you're obviously trying to do your job as
- 3:29Speaker 3: well as you can.
- 3:29Speaker 6: I'm just trying to be ready on Sunday to do
- 3:31Speaker 6: my job, so I'll fight through whatever I can for everybody, anybody.
- 3:34Speaker 5: I'll talk.
- 3:34Speaker 6: What was it to see Cooper, you know, go down
- 3:36Speaker 6: HEAs first start, one of his spirits been like you know,
- 3:38Speaker 6: since you've seen himself good.
- 3:39Speaker 5: I just I just talked to him.
- 3:41Speaker 4: He's in good spirits.
- 3:42Speaker 6: But you know, seeing him go down like that and
- 3:44Speaker 6: hearing him, you know, on the field, he was just
- 3:46Speaker 6: nothing but chipper and you know he's he's gonna be
- 3:49Speaker 6: back better than ever.
- 3:50Speaker 2: What about the challenge of the cohesion now with all
- 3:53Speaker 2: these changes, the trade, the injuries, things going on as
- 3:55Speaker 2: a line, how do you carry that through the rest
- 3:58Speaker 2: of the season.
- 3:58Speaker 6: I think Phil Phil does great job. You know during
- 4:00Speaker 6: campus added different bodies in there and you know, blast
- 4:03Speaker 6: and step in and then do a great job. He's
- 4:04Speaker 6: been in league for six or six years, so I
- 4:06Speaker 6: mean him and Walker are gonna play great together.
- 4:08Speaker 4: And uh, we're excited to We're excited to be out
- 4:10Speaker 4: there on Sunday.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Everybody.
- 4:11Speaker 1: We just got to exque.
- 4:12Speaker 5: We gotta do our job.
- 4:13Speaker 1: Uh that's what we all gotta come closer on the
- 4:16Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball and just say third down,
- 4:18Speaker 1: short yardist, goal line, whatever it is. We just have
- 4:20Speaker 1: to come together and all be on one accurt and
- 4:23Speaker 1: do out one to eleven as a unit.
- 4:24Speaker 4: And then offensive when you run the ball.
- 4:26Speaker 1: I'm sure y'all going yah man, I can't I can't
- 4:29Speaker 1: make a comment on that, but uh, I mean that's nah.
- 4:32Speaker 1: I just stay on my defense side of the ball.
- 4:35Speaker 5: You gotta stop the tushbush twice though.
- 4:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think anybody's doing that.
- 4:38Speaker 5: Uh.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that was very the more allising for them. Uh,
- 4:42Speaker 1: once we did it. That's why I I wanna say
- 4:44Speaker 1: it was it was another fourth and short that they
- 4:46Speaker 1: was about to go for it, they caught a time
- 4:48Speaker 1: out or something blew it dead. They was about to
- 4:49Speaker 1: run a the quarterback on the outside. I mean, I
- 4:52Speaker 1: think that was very more allied for for them on offense.
- 4:55Speaker 6: Uh.
- 4:55Speaker 1: That's why they kind of got away from it on
- 4:57Speaker 1: that uh late fourth down in the game where Jaylen
- 4:59Speaker 1: Hurt strambled a little. Yeah, man, Devin got the pressure
- 5:01Speaker 1: on him, so I got him out of that comfort zone.
- 5:03Speaker 4: So what did you guys do?
- 5:04Speaker 5: Maybe that other teams had you done.
- 5:06Speaker 1: To stop that turch man. I mean, I wouldn't say
- 5:09Speaker 1: that other teams didn't do it. We just put a
- 5:11Speaker 1: little bit more interest on that played throughout the week
- 5:15Speaker 1: and then we came out of execute who runs who
- 5:17Speaker 1: runs Jalen's role during the week. Uh so we got
- 5:22Speaker 1: a lot of got a lot of great guys. Sometimes
- 5:23Speaker 1: they could could be Mac or it could be the
- 5:25Speaker 1: other quarterbacks that we have, but I feel like our
- 5:28Speaker 1: everybody that's on ours sh roster haves the athletic ability
- 5:32Speaker 1: to go out there and be able to run the ball,
- 5:34Speaker 1: run around and you know what I'm saying, just be
- 5:36Speaker 1: free at quarterback. That kind of how Jalen is And
- 5:38Speaker 1: uh that's what they did.
- 5:40Speaker 4: Show me switch this week.
- 5:41Speaker 5: What do you think about him?
- 5:43Speaker 4: I love him.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Now we gotta get a win in 'em.
- 5:46Speaker 2: We got her a little late, but you've been that
- 5:48Speaker 2: lineup over Cam much. But having him coming back, I mean, what,
- 5:52Speaker 2: it's a little little lot right.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Uh yeah, most definitely I wanna give a huge shout
- 5:56Speaker 1: out of Cam. Uh he was one of those ones
- 5:57Speaker 1: that was definitely coming in as a rookie. It's a
- 6:00Speaker 1: great player. But him being on the opposite side of
- 6:02Speaker 1: the ball, I know it to be fuel fuel to
- 6:05Speaker 1: the fire for him being on that side of the ball.
- 6:07Speaker 1: Coming back to Jacksonville just like it is for us
- 6:09Speaker 1: being on the losing side of things. Uh, we wanna
- 6:11Speaker 1: get this pressure off of our chest. So I think
- 6:13Speaker 1: it's gonna be a great battle and looking forward to it.
- 6:17Speaker 3: How do you think your athleticism has really kind of
- 6:20Speaker 3: helped you develop into past.
- 6:21Speaker 4: Rush of the players worn Now.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Me personally, it's just the way I'm wire my mindset. Uh,
- 6:29Speaker 1: my athletic ability has a lot to play playing and
- 6:31Speaker 1: uh my speed obviously that's something that you really can't coach.
- 6:34Speaker 1: But for me, it's more so my speed, my mentality
- 6:37Speaker 1: d and the love that I have for the game
- 6:39Speaker 1: in general. Like I don't just play football for the money.
- 6:42Speaker 1: I actually play the game just for the love of football.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Been doing ever since seven years old. So that's just
- 6:47Speaker 1: something that I've been working on since seven years old.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And like I say, I live by the cold. If
- 6:51Speaker 1: you get one percent better every day, and if I
- 6:53Speaker 1: do that, I've never been in the same position. I'm
- 6:55Speaker 1: always elevating.
- 6:56Speaker 7: So when you you know I'm just gonna do what
- 6:58Speaker 7: I do. If you see what I do in film,
- 7:00Speaker 7: didn't you know expect to stop that? But I know
- 7:03Speaker 7: again if I stick to my process, stick and take care.
- 7:06Speaker 4: Of my body. I could come out there a hundred percent.
- 7:09Speaker 7: I'm'na do what I do and uh, we'll see see
- 7:13Speaker 7: see see who's ready?
- 7:14Speaker 4: Did last week remind you of who you are as
- 7:17Speaker 4: a player? Good question?
- 7:27Speaker 7: You know, remind me I always knew, you know, who
- 7:30Speaker 7: I was each week against the opportunities right there was
- 7:34Speaker 7: to keep finishing. You know, DB's did a heck of
- 7:37Speaker 7: a job on holding 'em.
- 7:39Speaker 5: Uh.
- 7:39Speaker 7: And that for my first sack, DVS did a heck
- 7:41Speaker 7: of a job on you know, I think that was
- 7:43Speaker 7: a cover sack. Uh, cover sack. So I think the
- 7:46Speaker 7: DB's part of that. But I continued to rush. And
- 7:49Speaker 7: then that second one, Eric did what he was supposed
- 7:51Speaker 7: to do. I started getting chip after that play. I
- 7:53Speaker 7: was getting chipped every play after that. So then we
- 7:56Speaker 7: sitting Eric over there. Eric takes both the guys and
- 7:59Speaker 7: I get chipped. Egg shoots it. I've fallen under him.
- 8:02Speaker 7: So you know, uh, remind me who I am? Man.
- 8:05Speaker 7: I'm always gonna play fast, play relentless, and you know,
- 8:08Speaker 7: try to dominate my match ups.
- 8:10Speaker 4: Uh. Just what I do, man?
- 8:11Speaker 7: And the numbers is there, you know, I I don't
- 8:14Speaker 7: think I think the only thing for me that slip
- 8:16Speaker 7: is my sack numbers, right, but I think eight games left,
- 8:19Speaker 7: I'm still in the middle of it and I didn't
- 8:21Speaker 7: get those up. But two two sacks, that was a
- 8:23Speaker 7: good That was a good. Like, Okay, you know, I'm
- 8:25Speaker 7: back in the mix of of of you know what
- 8:29Speaker 7: I'm supposed to be sort of say, but pressure hits hers.
- 8:32Speaker 7: You know, I think I'm up there, and you know,
- 8:34Speaker 7: if I could just again stick to my process, continue
- 8:37Speaker 7: to play with that competitive excellence that I know I
- 8:40Speaker 7: can and you know, rely on Tray, rely on the DBS,
- 8:43Speaker 7: and rely on my my guys to allow me to
- 8:46Speaker 7: go out there and play fast and physical. Again, great
- 8:48Speaker 7: matchup this week, left can but trying to go what do.
- 8:52Speaker 3: You guys have to do to stop the explosives or
- 8:54Speaker 3: slow down that? I mean, explosives have been.
- 8:56Speaker 5: Really a killer.
- 8:58Speaker 4: I mean I think it starts.
- 8:59Speaker 7: You know, Oh, that would probably be a better question
- 9:03Speaker 7: for like you could see where we begin to beat.
- 9:05Speaker 7: I don't wanna be too technical or tool analytical or whatever,
- 9:09Speaker 7: but you know, if it's in the past game upfront,
- 9:12Speaker 7: how can we affect the pass or you know, what
- 9:14Speaker 7: are they doing for us to allow that to happen.
- 9:16Speaker 7: You know, for us upfront, they've been done a lot
- 9:18Speaker 7: of max protection. So just having that relentless rush in
- 9:21Speaker 7: the middle and the outside. And then you know, in
- 9:24Speaker 7: the back end, do we have good eyes? Are we
- 9:27Speaker 7: in the right place where we need to be? Are
- 9:29Speaker 7: we one of those woner ones in a match up?
- 9:32Speaker 7: Cause those are all things that we need to do.
- 9:33Speaker 7: We rely up front to win our one ones. In
- 9:35Speaker 7: the back end, we rely on them to win their
- 9:37Speaker 7: wonder ones. The walls in there, we go get it.
- 9:39Speaker 7: It's a one on one against me and this dude,
- 9:41Speaker 7: they expect me to win, and so like, just keep
- 9:44Speaker 7: playing with that trust, keep playing with that excellence, and
- 9:46Speaker 7: make sure we're on the same page in the upfront.
- 9:48Speaker 4: In the run game, you know though explosive.
- 9:50Speaker 7: Runs that they had the third and situational awareness, uh,
- 9:53Speaker 7: being aware of the situation obviously third and forever. You know,
- 9:58Speaker 7: we know that that's a sh green quick game. Just
- 10:01Speaker 7: tryna get back and field goal range or whatever. Just
- 10:04Speaker 7: tryna get some easy yards. And you know, for us
- 10:06Speaker 7: to see the back set, see oh he's the level three,
- 10:09Speaker 7: that's not a really past set, you know, So for
- 10:12Speaker 7: us to be more situationally aware in those situations. Uh,
- 10:16Speaker 7: that can allow us to okay, check to a run
- 10:18Speaker 7: for it, or have our mindset okay, we need to
- 10:21Speaker 7: play a little bit more thicker and not allow us
- 10:23Speaker 7: just to jettle flub because it was third down.
- 10:25Speaker 4: So we just have to be more aware.
- 10:28Speaker 7: And and that starts with me, and I take ownership
- 10:30Speaker 7: to that seeing these things. You know, I have a
- 10:33Speaker 7: lot of experience, and you know, I can help put
- 10:35Speaker 7: my guys in a better position moving forward, and I will.
- 10:38Speaker 4: What do you think about the white helmets? I like 'em.
- 10:40Speaker 4: I think they're dope. I wish you was gonna we're
- 10:42Speaker 4: all white with it.
- 10:43Speaker 7: But the white black white, white is a is a
- 10:45Speaker 7: great combination. Uh, something that the team you know, thought
- 10:48Speaker 7: about together. You know, something new, very special. Hopefully it
- 10:54Speaker 7: gives us, brings us, brings us positive luck.
- 10:56Speaker 4: You're you're thought you uh you guys an't play hurt.
- 11:00Speaker 3: But when you see the guy like Sriff and some
- 11:03Speaker 3: of those guys battling through what they do, I he
- 11:05Speaker 3: is their respect?
- 11:06Speaker 5: Is it just normal? It's like you know that this
- 11:08Speaker 5: is what we do.
- 11:08Speaker 4: Man, it's a lot of respect.
- 11:10Speaker 7: I remember talking to his wife, you know, well, we
- 11:12Speaker 7: were all talking together and uh, his wife mentioned and
- 11:15Speaker 7: he's like, man, this is like when we first met
- 11:17Speaker 7: each other. They yeah, Sheriff, Yeah, like you talking about
- 11:20Speaker 7: her husband. Like he's gonna end up play. He's gonna
- 11:22Speaker 7: even finish in the game, no matter what it look
- 11:24Speaker 7: like or how it feels, He's gonna finish it. So
- 11:26Speaker 7: every time he falls down, I'm like, alright, SHARE's down,
- 11:29Speaker 7: and then I see him go back in it.
- 11:30Speaker 4: Just it brings me back to that mem It brings me.
- 11:32Speaker 7: Always back to that, Like, you know, we always play hurt,
- 11:34Speaker 7: but you know we're gonna finish what we can for her,
- 11:37Speaker 7: for each other, and uh, we're very competitive, everyone is,
- 11:40Speaker 7: and we're gonna fight to the end. But I love
- 11:42Speaker 7: to see when Sheriff comes back out there and just
- 11:44Speaker 7: keeps fighting for us and still play at a high level.
- 11:48Speaker 4: But we all play nicked up. I feel like they say,
- 11:51Speaker 4: the only time you're not.
- 11:52Speaker 7: A hundred percent is is day is day is day
- 11:54Speaker 7: after they want to try to count hum after that,
- 11:57Speaker 7: everybody's dealing with something.
- 11:59Speaker 4: So but how well do you take care of your
- 12:01Speaker 4: body throughout the week, how well do you prepare throughout
- 12:04Speaker 4: the week? Is gonna allow you to play fast if.
- 12:07Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you guys are all athletic freaks.
- 12:09Speaker 4: But I've never seen that. That was crazy. That's crazy
- 12:15Speaker 4: daring that he's like he's gonna be born that man's
- 12:17Speaker 4: highlight reel forever. I mean, but.
- 12:20Speaker 7: Again, you know Jarring, the spotlight Jarring had this year. Man,
- 12:22Speaker 7: he's been, he's been, He's he's a hell of a player,
- 12:25Speaker 7: you know, as a rookie. So it's not like, you
- 12:28Speaker 7: know he has a bad player. You know, there's there's
- 12:31Speaker 7: there's great guys on that man's highlight tape who he's
- 12:33Speaker 7: done that too, So you know, you know, just reminded like, yeah,
- 12:37Speaker 7: you probably gonna see it. But also again when they
- 12:38Speaker 7: look at who was that player, they're gonna see he's
- 12:41Speaker 7: a shutdown slot you know, slot down, shut down slot guy.
- 12:45Speaker 4: Who uh whoo who a lot of people don't throw
- 12:47Speaker 4: the ball to.
- 12:48Speaker 7: So you know, try to keep giving that confidence to
- 12:50Speaker 7: him and keep playing with that slagger that he does,
- 12:52Speaker 7: and it happens to the best of us. I mean
- 12:54Speaker 7: when I mean, when I got stiff arm, you know, now,
- 12:56Speaker 7: let me not say that, let me not bring that
- 12:57Speaker 7: up for somebody looks that up and I had a
- 13:00Speaker 7: fine look at that, but yeah, i'd have made somebody
- 13:02Speaker 7: highlight tape before, you know, but somebody's also to make
- 13:05Speaker 7: my highlight.
- 13:06Speaker 4: Tape, you know what I mean. So that's just the
- 13:08Speaker 4: way the games go.
- 13:09Speaker 7: But regardless of whatever, I've never seen that before, and
- 13:13Speaker 7: that was kind of crazy. I couldn't appreciated to after it.
- 13:16Speaker 7: I could not appreciate it. But it was like after
- 13:18Speaker 7: the game, I was like, damn. During the game, I
- 13:20Speaker 7: was like, I don't even think about it. But after
- 13:22Speaker 7: the game, I was like, Damn, this dude really just
- 13:25Speaker 7: jumped through.
- 13:26Speaker 4: It's crazy. But he's a Heppa player. Though.
- 13:29Speaker 8: You always say, you know you're not taking the first snap,
- 13:31Speaker 8: but you could take every other snap, so you just
- 13:33Speaker 8: gotta be ready. And that's the mentality I always have
- 13:36Speaker 8: when you've been on the sideline.
- 13:37Speaker 3: What's the biggest thing you've seen that this offense maybe
- 13:40Speaker 3: is struggling with.
- 13:40Speaker 5: What's the biggest area of gross Yeah, I think we
- 13:43Speaker 5: watched the film.
- 13:44Speaker 8: There's definitely things to clean up each week, but it's
- 13:46Speaker 8: really just a mentality and everybody playing together and we've
- 13:48Speaker 8: done that well. Sjosh is screaming, but yeah, we've done
- 13:54Speaker 8: that well. I felt like we played together and it's
- 13:55Speaker 8: just gonna click one of these days, and we just
- 13:57Speaker 8: gotta keep bringing the juice and execution. And once you
- 14:00Speaker 8: do that together as eleven people, then good things will happen.
- 14:03Speaker 8: And you can't really chase it. You can't drink a
- 14:05Speaker 8: magic potion or something. You got to just do the
- 14:08Speaker 8: hard work and trust each other and that will happen.
- 14:11Speaker 4: It's a challengeable week like this one.
- 14:13Speaker 2: You may go, you may not.
- 14:14Speaker 4: You got to.
- 14:14Speaker 2: Practice more, but they're not sure, right, I mean how challenging.
- 14:19Speaker 8: I mean as a backup quarterback in the NFL, that's
- 14:21Speaker 8: your job. And I've done a great job sticking to
- 14:23Speaker 8: my schedule as a starter and just going through each
- 14:26Speaker 8: week and preparing like a starter and learning from Trevor
- 14:29Speaker 8: and the coaches and watching how.
- 14:31Speaker 5: Guys move and how they block and all that stuff.
- 14:33Speaker 5: So it's been good.
- 14:34Speaker 8: You know, you can learn a lot of different ways
- 14:36Speaker 8: from watching, whether that's on the sideline or at practice
- 14:39Speaker 8: or in film. So been fortunate to learn from some
- 14:42Speaker 8: good guys, some good veterans, and definitely feel like it's
- 14:45Speaker 8: a good group from.
- 14:46Speaker 2: Your view from the sideline. How do you get a
- 14:48Speaker 2: faster start on offense, how does that? Is that a
- 14:51Speaker 2: full team thing? How does that go?
- 14:53Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 14:53Speaker 8: I think it's just you know, just running the show,
- 14:56Speaker 8: going out there, being confident, going up, playing with pace
- 14:59Speaker 8: and and we've been doing that, so just got to
- 15:01Speaker 8: get it together. And Trevor's been doing a good job,
- 15:03Speaker 8: you know, being prepared each week and I always try
- 15:05Speaker 8: to help as much as I can if he ever
- 15:07Speaker 8: needs anything, and he's done a great job. So I've
- 15:09Speaker 8: learned a lot from him. And starting fast is a mentality.
- 15:13Speaker 8: So you just got to have your mindset to it
- 15:15Speaker 8: and don't chase it, like I said earlier, and let
- 15:17Speaker 8: it come to you.
- 15:18Speaker 2: And then from last one, for me, a bunch of
- 15:20Speaker 2: guys injured on this team on the offense, guys stepping
- 15:22Speaker 2: up and playing key roles here, that's huge for the
- 15:25Speaker 2: mentality of this team.
- 15:26Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 15:26Speaker 8: I think Coach Peterson talked about that in OTAs and
- 15:29Speaker 8: that's why we we all get reps throughout the off season,
- 15:32Speaker 8: you know, being here, it's been nice. You know, you
- 15:34Speaker 8: get reps and guys have had to step in and
- 15:36Speaker 8: play and it's not just one position, it's multiple and
- 15:38Speaker 8: I think everyone's done a good job. So I think
- 15:41Speaker 8: it's the next man up mentality for those guys and
- 15:43Speaker 8: they've all done a good job.
- 15:45Speaker 3: Sorry Mike jumping in late, but yeah, what's your mentality
- 15:48Speaker 3: this week with it?
- 15:49Speaker 4: Obviously Trevor digged up, not.
- 15:50Speaker 5: Really sure of his status.
- 15:52Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm same as every every week. I was telling
- 15:53Speaker 8: them it's NFL football and as a backup quarterback, you
- 15:56Speaker 8: gotta be ready, and you know, you plan out your
- 15:58Speaker 8: week like a starter. So I've been fortunate to kind
- 16:01Speaker 8: of adjust that each week and figure out what works
- 16:03Speaker 8: for me.
- 16:04Speaker 5: To feel confident on Sunday.
- 16:06Speaker 8: And whether you're taking the first snap, you're taking ten snap, zero, fifty, sixty, seventy,
- 16:10Speaker 8: it doesn't matter. But you have to have that mentality
- 16:13Speaker 8: of hey, I did all the work and I feel comfortable,
- 16:15Speaker 8: and I feel like I've gotten the reps visually or
- 16:18Speaker 8: however I get them, and then from there you.
- 16:20Speaker 5: Just go let it rip.
- 16:21Speaker 3: How much if you get called the preseason stuff and
- 16:26Speaker 3: and the practice reps that you do get paid off
- 16:28Speaker 3: with this system, And.
- 16:29Speaker 8: Yeah, for sure, like I said, I was, you know,
- 16:31Speaker 8: you just came up. But I was talking about earlier,
- 16:33Speaker 8: just in OTAs and preseason, the reps are divvied up
- 16:36Speaker 8: really fairly, and you.
- 16:37Speaker 5: Get a lot of experience.
- 16:38Speaker 8: And I was fortunate, you know, to have those mini
- 16:41Speaker 8: camp days where I was the only quarterback and go
- 16:43Speaker 8: through the offense, and you know, you look back on
- 16:45Speaker 8: those reps in the preseason and how we were operating
- 16:47Speaker 8: as an offense, and that's I pride myself, and that
- 16:50Speaker 8: is how the quarterback leaves the unit. And Trevor's done
- 16:53Speaker 8: a great job of that, and I've learned from him.
- 16:54Speaker 8: And I also, you know, no, you're good. Josh's screaming
- 16:58Speaker 8: over there, yelling paragraphs metion, but uh yeah, I mean
- 17:02Speaker 8: I I've learned a lot from Trevor and and like
- 17:05Speaker 8: I said, we'll just we'll see how it goes.
