  Speaker 1: Trivor can you kind of walk us through that last
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: drive that you know resulted in the touchdown to Evan
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Just obviously having so many guys out, so many different
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: guys in playing with two tight ends, can you just
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: kind of walk us through it.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, can't even remember all the plays that kind
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: of led to us scoring. Another one we scored on
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: and sorry, Jean's coming in. Another one we scored on.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Evan did a great job with line of scrimmage one
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: early and then just went up and made a great play.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: But yeah, tough day really on all levels. Injuries didn't
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: win the game. It's unfortunate. So uh, definitely bummed and
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: hate it for, you know, some of the guys and
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: we'll see I don't know, you know, it's not my
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: job to do injury stuff, but you know, hopefully we
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: can get them back soon. And just hate it for
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: guys that are battling through stuff and seemed like just
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: guys kept going down today. It's it's part of the game,
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: but it sucks when it all kind of happens in
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: the same day. So just praying for those guys that
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: get quick and can heal up quick. So we'll see
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: but yeah, obviously it's twelve personnel and you're in no huddle.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: It's not something you really practice much. Usually you're an
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: eleven and you got you got your receivers out there,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: and we didn't have any left. We had two left.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: And those guys, hats off to Parker and Tim. I mean,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: they did a great job just staying ready. I mean,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: you never know when something like that could happen, and
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: those guys are an awesome job of making some plays
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: down the stretch and just being ready for their their opportunity.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: So I mean that's a bright spot if there is one,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: just those guys playing well.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Trevor, If you guys have to dip down to the
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: practice squad where you got Elijah Austin, Trammell, Josh Efis,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: did they do enough good things in training, camping and
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: preseason games where you got some level of confidence that
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: they'll be able to step in and perform for sure?
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Obviously, you know, I don't I don't know what's gonna happen.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the future looks like. But those
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: guys have been working really hard. I think they've done
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: a nice job. Obviously, will if if that happens, and
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: we do have to bring some guys up, and then
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: it's about kind of getting that chemistry going again, cause
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: it's been a little bit since, you know, thrown with
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: those guys and and work some stuff. So this would
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: be a big week if that is the case, that's
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: what happens. And but those guys have been working really hard.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: They're prepared. You know. It's something that we preach is
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: just to stay ready, cause you just never know when
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: you're when your number is gonna be called. So who knows,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: this could be the week for some of those guys.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: And I got faith and you know how in those
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: guys and how they can play sure us.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Did you feel like you had the ball a barn.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: Up a wave of endor that you were concerned about
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: movie or on the bubble because you guys hold it
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: away from where he was.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I was just obviously disappointed and turned
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: the ball over there, backed up and giving them an
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: easy touchdown pretty much. Uh, definitely affected the game. So
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: it's disappointing. I thought, you know, honestly thought I was
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: gonna break the tackle and scramble, so I kind of
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: moved it to the other hand to get out of
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: the so I could use my offhand to try to
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: get him off me. And you know, he he, he
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: made a good play and and made the tackle and
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: somehow I don't know what hit the ball. Something hit
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the ball and just gotta take care of it, you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: in that situation. Even if I you know, throw it
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: away or check it down and we we don't get
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: it and we punt, that's still better and puts our
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: defense in a position where they can get a stop
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: and prevent them from scoring. So uh, I didn't didn't
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: help them out there.
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: The motion timing a little bit off.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, some something happened on that I think it hit
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: hit one of our guys and during the motion, so
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure exactly. It's kind of hard to tell
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: exactly what happened to happened quick, uh, but yeah, it's
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: same thing. It's just another another air that we gotta fix.
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's the the timing, if it's
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: my cadence timed up that motion better. Obviously, I said,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: we had a lot of a lot of injuries and
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: we got guys going that are, you know, doing stuff
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: that they haven't done before. And we're we're trying to
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: figure out on the fly. So it's no excuse, but
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: we gotta we gotta play cleaner.
• 3:59
  Speaker 7: Instead of right.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: Kind of a tale of two halves. Trevor, you talked
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: about the success late in the game early on. Did
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: Green Day show you something you guys, it just seemed
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: to just struggle to even pick up a first down
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: until midway through the second quarter.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I mean, honestly, they did a few
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: things a little different. I think that's every game though.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: There's gonna be a plan for their defensive plan for
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: us and what we do and what they see on tape.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: You know, they have a plan, just as we have
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: a plan to play them. So there's always a couple things.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't anything crazy. We just didn't execute and
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I missed a couple throws on third down throughout the game.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: There's some other ones where it just felt like the
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: details weren't good enough. Whether that's being on the same
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: page and the perimeter or whatever. It just seemed like
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: some of the details we were lacking a little bit
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: early and some of the third downs. They made some
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: good plays too, but we got to be able to
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: convert some of those third downs. I think we had
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: two or three three and outs in a row to
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: start the game and put our defense in a tough spot,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: and they were playing they were playing great, So yeah,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: we got we gotta be better on third down. We've
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: been better the last few weeks going into this game,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: and we weren't good today.
• 5:06
  Speaker 7: Trevor, you guys were two and semi here. Uh, you
• 5:09
  Speaker 7: guys were two and six two years ago, two and
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: six now here today? Can you draw upon that experience
• 5:15
  Speaker 7: and what's your confidence level comparatively to when you guys
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: were two and six two years ago versus two and
• 5:20
  Speaker 7: six today?
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: You know, I see that's what's you know, kind of
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: sucks as a player, and you know, just being a
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: part of the team is you see the team coming
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: together and where we're at the last few weeks, we
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: really have I felt like, come together and we're playing
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: more complimentary and we're giving ourselves a chance. And obviously
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: there's just too many mistakes today and we didn't make
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: enough plays at the end of the game to go
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: win it. But I do feel the team coming together.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: But we just got to find a way to go
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: three and six. Let's go win next week. I can't
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: worry about what's going to come after that. We just
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: got to go taking one week at a time. It's
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: the only way we're going to get out of the
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: hole that we've we've put ourselves in. So I'm honestly
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: not really thinking about two years ago help you now.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, obviously the experience, maybe guys have a little
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: bit of confidence from that. But it's a new team
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: and we gotta go do it. We can't just say, well,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: we've done it before, it's gonna happen. You know. We
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: got to go find a way to make these plays
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: at the end of the game to go win it.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: So, yeah, you gotta score. I think with one forty
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: eight left in the fourth quarter, seeing how Green Bay's
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: last drive played out, do you think you scored too quickly?
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: Like would you have like to join a little more
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: time off the clock.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: No, I mean it's you gotta score. You know, you
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: try to mess around and you don't score and you
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: don't have a chance. So we were down seven, you
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: got to score. If you got an opportunity, you punch
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: it in. So no, I don't think that we scored
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: too quickly. I think it's ideally, Yeah, of course, you
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: would love to take as much time and you get
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: down inside the five and maybe you can run it
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: around the clock, make them use timeouts, who knows, whatever,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: whatever it may be. But that just wasn't really the
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: situation we were in. It felt like we were playing aggressive,
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: We were moving the ball great, I was seeing it.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: You know, guys are getting open making plays. And then
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: we got our opportunity, our matchup with Evan, and we
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: took it. So I think it's it's not the same
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: as when you're you need to kick a field goal
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: to take the lead or whatever, when you have to
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: score a touchdown, you got to take them when you
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: can get them. So yeah, well the last one.
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: Of you, Trevor, with you know, the injuries, you don't
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: know who's going to be out for how long. But
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: this is when you're facing a reduced lineup like that,
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: the pressure to be even more perfect. Is that going
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: to ramp up? You know, less of a margin for
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: are you guys going forward if you are going to
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: get back in this thing?
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: No, I mean guys just got to step up, including me,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Like I mean, it's the same every week. I mean,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: playing quarterback in this league. If you don't play well,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: you're not probably gonna have a great chance to win.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: So it doesn't really change. And it's any position you
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: got to you just gotta play well, don't matter who
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: you're playing, You got to play together, got to execute
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: in critical situations. Just all stuff that we've talked about,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: and we got to continue to get better at and
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: I think we have in some areas, and it's one
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: thing we just got to mess of stick together, and
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: we can't be totally dejected by the result today. I
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: do think we've come a long way and we are
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: continuing to come together and become a better team. But
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: we gotta we gotta find a way to win, win
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: next week, so you know, all the work is not
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: in vain. You know, we've come a long way and
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: we just got to go find a way to win. Awesome,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Thank you all appreciate it.
