  Speaker 1: The decision to go for it thirty one twenty seven,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: go for two. What's the analytics and logic?
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Well, it it it analytics is basically, you know, puts
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: you down two and and field go win to get
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: the onside kick, then field go wins the game.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Just wanted to avoid any possibility.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Of overtime, yeah, I you know, and and try to
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: be aggressive there and and just the way the game
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: was going, felt like we needed to, you know, obviously
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: make something happen. And that was that was a good time.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: We had them on their heels at that time, and
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: it was it was a good decision to do that.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: How much does the atrician that you sustained figure into
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: a decision not to avoid or to avoid over time
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: the possibility of overtime.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean I think sometimes that that's the maybe
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: the easiest thing to think about, right but when you're
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: down there and and and your team is you know,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: just scored, we got a little momentum right there, and
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: and for me, it was it was it was a
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: kind of an easy decision to go forward at that time,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: cause then you get a chance to get the ball back,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: you know exactly what you gotta do right, So either
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: way it worked to your advantage is consideration.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: I think one it was fourth to three, maybe three
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and a half or four and a half minutes to
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: go to maybe if you've had all three of your
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: time outs, you're down by seven at the time. Was
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: there consideration to maybe pump there or did you just
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: kind of feel like.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: I think if it was fourth and ten, yes, but
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: fourth and three is a better your better chance percentages
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: to to pick up the first down. So it was
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: it was another one that we decided to go for
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: and got it.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: What was your overall feeling about the just the flow
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: of the game. You guys are playing uphill all day long,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: and it just didn't seem like things were buttoned up early.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think offensively we were a little disconnected,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: you know, Trevor and the receivers were a little off.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: You know, we had opportunities to make plays in the
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: first half, didn't Obviously, the turnovers, you know, are are
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: big and you can't you can't do that.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: We had a little success early run in the football,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: you know, with some of the things we did to
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: keep them off balanced, but just overall just not not
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: enough plays made. You know, too many, too many self
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: inflicted wounds. You know that that kept us from sustaining
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: drives or you know, staying on the field. Trevor worked
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: quite on the same page on a couple of plays
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: a couple of times, a couple of times, and again,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: you know, you know, with without a week of practice
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: two together. You know that that affects that a little bit.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: But but they you know, obviously that's that's not an excuse,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and they would say the same thing. You know, they've
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: played a lot of football together and and all that.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: So we we just got to evaluate the tape and
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: and you know, figure out a way to get back
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: on track. Christian, you know, for the first time.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: Was that impact compounded by the fact that Charter wasn't
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: really able practice much.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: No, I mean I don't I don't think so, you
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: know again, Parker, you know, other than the fumble early
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: in the third quarter there, you know, I thought did
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: some good things. Obviously the touchdown catch was big. But
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: you know, he'll continue to improve, you know, and he
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: and Trevor will continue to work and be on the
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: same page and and you know, just give him some
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: more opportunities and flow out, you know, Obviously we missed
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Christian obviously, I mean, he's he's a big part of
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: the offense. But look, it's you know where we are
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: in the season, you know this late. I mean, it's
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: it's the next man up mentality, right, So we've got
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: to continue to as coaches, you know, prepare our players
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: and and get those guys ready to go, regardless of
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: who's regardless of who's in there. So a lot of
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: confidence and uh, you know, we move forward coaching job.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: It's defense. He's done over there.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I guess I'll start instead the eight team to win again.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Four different starting quarterbacks since in nineteen fifty.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all the three interceptions river how many of those
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: were just over aggressive or or miscommunications?
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: What? What?
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: What did you see on hosting? You know some of
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: it was maybe you know, I think the first deep
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: ball was just an overthrow, you know, the one in
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: the red zone. He and Calvin need to be on
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: the same page and they they weren't, you know, right there.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: And then the one in the fourth quarter again was
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: was a was a play that you know, you hope
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: you put it up to, you know, one of your
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: better receivers and you hope you can at least come
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: down with it or at least incomplete pass. So you
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: know a little bit of everything, uh there. But you know,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: plays that we've made before and and you know, looking
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: looking forward, we we got to make those in a
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: couple evening jokes.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Touchdowns are early for the Browns.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: The defensive was that even we pressured on the first
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: one and you know they got us. So you know,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: credit credit Cleveland there. I mean, they did a good
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: job there. And and then the next one we just
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: met misfit a gap and you know he was he
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: was open across the middle. All things that. You know,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: the second one really is in our control, you know,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: and so we got to look at the film there
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: and and make that correction. And and you know, just
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: check out the communication at the time and see what
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: was going on.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: With Joe Plato regarding him, Yeah, playing playing against it
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: and beyond your bossier on a second, I know he's
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: only been on the range loss that's monboards any surprise
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: or daring that production and get put up today he
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: at an older age.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Or no, you know, listen, he he's a veteran guy.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: He's played a ton of football, you know, he he's
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: he's got some some really good players to throw the
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: ball to, you know, and he did a nice job today.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: And and you know, their offense did a nice job
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: kind of keeping our guys off balance, you know a
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: little bit. And you know, it's no surprise that that
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: he's still playing as well as he is, you know,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: this late in his career. Why you say that, said,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: he's a veteran guy. He's played a ton of football.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: He's smart, you know, and he's just he's just one
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: of those guys that just just takes what the defense
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: gives you, right, and.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: He he was.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: He was accurate today. He threw it away, you know,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: when he needed to throw it away. Just he managed
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: the game, played well, you know, and then when the
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: opportunities were there, he made the most of them, right.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: So got out of some sacks so he can he
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: can escape the pocket, got before he got hurt and enhanced.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: How did that go to anything?
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I thought it went well. I mean there was some
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: pressure there. Obviously, we gave up with four sacks. I
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: think that today, But a lot of them came at
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: the end of the game, you know, when you're in
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: those passing modes. But you know, I thought both guys
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: did a nice job.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Obviously, we we helped them as much as we could
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: over there with tight ends and backs and you know,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: but what I thought, I thought both guys held up good.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: You quite well, uh uh, both of 'em. We'll have
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: to see, I I don't I don't know. I gotta
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: talk to Ferd obviously, we'll we'll do more evaluation when
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: we get home tonight. Thanks, thanks very thanks so thank
