Latest / Seahawks Press Pass / Sam Darnold: "We're Going To Grow From This"
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously a tough loss. You know, I thought, you know,
- 0:04Speaker 1: with that in the first half, you know, being down
- 0:06Speaker 1: thirteen to nothing, the way that we you know, kind
- 0:09Speaker 1: of came back in that two minute drill scored and
- 0:11Speaker 1: then we were able to score right away, you know,
- 0:13Speaker 1: coming out of the second half. It was awesome to
- 0:14Speaker 1: see our offense, you know, do that to be able
- 0:18Speaker 1: to just double them up right there in the middle eight.
- 0:21Speaker 1: It was great. And then yeah, just you know, the
- 0:25Speaker 1: last the last turnover definitely you know on me, I
- 0:30Speaker 1: was just trying to throw it away. I think it
- 0:32Speaker 1: might have deflected off a helmet. Once I saw I
- 0:34Speaker 1: was gonna be hot to my left, I just tried
- 0:36Speaker 1: to throw it away and so I think it deflected
- 0:39Speaker 1: off of off of somebody's helmet. But uh yeah, at
- 0:42Speaker 1: the end of the day, I got to protect the
- 0:44Speaker 1: football in that situation and can't give him a short
- 0:45Speaker 1: field to put the game away like that. But also,
- 0:49Speaker 1: you know, I want to give credit to those guys
- 0:51Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. They're a tough team. I mean, every single
- 0:54Speaker 1: game they're in, I feel like they they fight till
- 0:56Speaker 1: the very end. So you got to give them a
- 0:58Speaker 1: lot of credit. Sanless feel like you guys kind of
- 1:02Speaker 1: you had when you need grasp and you let it
- 1:03Speaker 1: get away. For sure. Yeah, yeah, I think, you know,
- 1:07Speaker 1: being being up late the way that we were, the
- 1:10Speaker 1: ware offense was rolling to and you know, the confidence
- 1:13Speaker 1: I have in our offense in two minute situations even
- 1:15Speaker 1: with them tying it. You know, at the end there,
- 1:17Speaker 1: I felt like we could go down and you know,
- 1:19Speaker 1: put our put Jason Myers in a position to be
- 1:22Speaker 1: able to win the game there. So that was disappointing
- 1:25Speaker 1: for sure, But at the end of the day, that's football,
- 1:28Speaker 1: and we're gonna look at it. We're gonna look at
- 1:30Speaker 1: the tape, grow from it, and just continue to get better.
- 1:34Speaker 1: How's that the late mistake? Do you feel like that
- 1:36Speaker 1: was a leader performance? If because you guys have had
- 1:39Speaker 1: offensively the season, I don't know. I gotta look at it.
- 1:43Speaker 1: You know it was. I think the first half could
- 1:46Speaker 1: have been a lot better. Obviously, the second half we were,
- 1:50Speaker 1: we were rolling pretty good, put some good drives together,
- 1:52Speaker 1: but again that first half, you know, to to not
- 1:56Speaker 1: score until the two minute drive, we got to be better. There.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Got four touchdowns out three in the last two games.
- 2:02Speaker 1: What what makes him a good friend zone weapon for you. Yeah,
- 2:05Speaker 1: you know, Aj is just a good player. You know,
- 2:07Speaker 1: I think flat out he's a really good player. We
- 2:09Speaker 1: just kind of continue to you know, for me, I'm
- 2:12Speaker 1: just going to continue to go through my progressions and
- 2:14Speaker 1: go through my progressions, and uh, you know, the ball
- 2:17Speaker 1: is going to find, you know, whoever the progression you
- 2:20Speaker 1: know tells me to go to. They had no sacks
- 2:23Speaker 1: today in this game on it, and offensive line seemed
- 2:26Speaker 1: like they were really in control of everybody. Those top
- 2:28Speaker 1: bulls likes to bring a lot of extra pressure. So
- 2:30Speaker 1: how'd you feel about the way that those guys were
- 2:32Speaker 1: able to make make make it that you had extended
- 2:35Speaker 1: time back, they're to be able to make plays and
- 2:36Speaker 1: get some of those down steals. John's Yeah, for sure.
- 2:38Speaker 1: I think you know, the times that they did pressure,
- 2:41Speaker 1: I felt like our offensive line, you know, tight ends,
- 2:43Speaker 1: running backs did a really good job picking it up.
- 2:46Speaker 1: I think. I guess that's why I'm you know, so
- 2:48Speaker 1: disappointed in the last play, because you know, I saw
- 2:51Speaker 1: that look during practice a couple of times, you know,
- 2:54Speaker 1: had an opportunity to do something else with the protection.
- 2:57Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, like I said,
- 2:58Speaker 1: that's football. But uh, yeah, you know, I always give
- 3:01Speaker 1: a lot of credit to, you know, whenever we go
- 3:03Speaker 1: against Tampa, you know, coach Bowles and his staff and
- 3:06Speaker 1: those the players on defense man, they do a really
- 3:08Speaker 1: good job of making their scheme kind of come to
- 3:10Speaker 1: life with all the pressures and the coverages they played
- 3:13Speaker 1: behind it. In terms of doing something different during the
- 3:16Speaker 1: final player, you're saying is not necessary what happened post
- 3:18Speaker 1: snap pers and you could have done something different pre snap. Yeah, yeah,
- 3:21Speaker 1: I feel like I could have you know, changed the
- 3:22Speaker 1: protection and just yeah, been aware of if they're you know,
- 3:28Speaker 1: bringing it to the other side. You know, I had
- 3:30Speaker 1: a good answer to that side, and I think Tory
- 3:33Speaker 1: was open as well on the right side, So I
- 3:35Speaker 1: just got to be a lot better there pre snap
- 3:37Speaker 1: and yeah, leave it that down, yeah, uh, you know, fourth,
- 3:44Speaker 1: fourth and uh, fourth and short. I think just you know,
- 3:48Speaker 1: love love the aggression there by you know, Coach Mike, uh,
- 3:52Speaker 1: you know, and obviously Clint, you know, just going through
- 3:56Speaker 1: my progression and kind of laying the down, just scrambling,
- 3:59Speaker 1: you know, Tory tore ended up being wide open and
- 4:01Speaker 1: I was trying not to try not to throw him
- 4:03Speaker 1: out of bounds. Trying to put on his back shoulder
- 4:05Speaker 1: a little bit so he can turn up and and
- 4:06Speaker 1: get in the end zone. Was the protection in the
- 4:08Speaker 1: play he went with on the last and now yep,
- 4:11Speaker 1: was that one of the plays one of the protections
- 4:13Speaker 1: you've had practiced during the week, Yes, you yeah, No,
- 4:18Speaker 1: I I feel like that was a bad quarterback play
- 4:21Speaker 1: on that uh that last that last snap. Let's just
- 4:25Speaker 1: kind of key for you guys. That but this will
- 4:26Speaker 1: behind the abouncement, Yeah, I think that. You know, we
- 4:29Speaker 1: gotta we gotta look at the tape, grow get better.
- 4:31Speaker 1: I mean, it's the same thing I would say after
- 4:33Speaker 1: a win. You know, we just got to continue to
- 4:35Speaker 1: to look at ourselves in the mirror and see how
- 4:37Speaker 1: we can grow get better, how our process can be
- 4:40Speaker 1: a little bit a little bit better throughout the week,
- 4:43Speaker 1: and uh, move on and get ready for Jacksonville. Between
- 4:47Speaker 1: this Arizona and the Niners, you've had three game winning
- 4:50Speaker 1: or game potential winning opportunities. Just looking at all those
- 4:53Speaker 1: threes or anything that just stands out to you. No,
- 4:56Speaker 1: I think, you know, like I said after the Arizona game,
- 4:59Speaker 1: I think we practic to sit so much. So I
- 5:01Speaker 1: think with all that practice. You you you have all
- 5:04Speaker 1: the reps and you have all the different looks, especially
- 5:06Speaker 1: going against coach Mike's defense throughout camp, through through out
- 5:10Speaker 1: as you know, he's he's going to give us so
- 5:12Speaker 1: many looks in two minutes. Uh so we're ready for everything.
- 5:15Speaker 1: And yeah, just uh like I said, got to be
- 5:18Speaker 1: better than that last drove. Appreciate it, guys, Thank you
