Latest / Seahawks Press Pass / Cooper Kupp On The Offense's Growth Through Week 3 & Preparing For The Cardinals
Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Got here. You guys, what's I.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Would say, just what's what's the biggest challenge getting ready
- 0:09Speaker 2: for a Thursday game? Is it just cramming everything in?
- 0:11Speaker 1: Is it the physical?
- 0:12Speaker 2: What?
- 0:12Speaker 1: What do you think is hard? Yeah, it's probably a
- 0:14Speaker 1: little bit of a mix of both.
- 0:15Speaker 3: And I mean a lot of it is contingent on
- 0:17Speaker 3: you know, what Sunday looks like. And I think offensively,
- 0:21Speaker 3: guys that came out decently, a few injuries and things
- 0:26Speaker 3: like that, or you know whatever, guys. But yeah, I
- 0:30Speaker 3: think there's probably a little bit of about battle on
- 0:32Speaker 3: both sides. Feel bad for the coaches, obviously they're not
- 0:36Speaker 3: getting much sleep, but you know, for for players to
- 0:39Speaker 3: make man, how much can you take care of your body?
- 0:40Speaker 3: How much can you make sure you're getting turned over
- 0:43Speaker 3: and ready to go and just being able to be
- 0:45Speaker 3: locked in. You know, it's kind of those things where
- 0:46Speaker 3: you you're used to, like a Monday Tuesday kind of
- 0:50Speaker 3: let down, you know, they refocus back in for the
- 0:54Speaker 3: push Wednesday to Sunday. You kind of have to just
- 0:57Speaker 3: keep it going for an extended period of time time
- 1:00Speaker 3: When you go into these Thursday games.
- 1:02Speaker 4: When you're looking at other receivers, what do you what
- 1:05Speaker 4: things do you stand out to you? And you're evaluating
- 1:07Speaker 4: what are the things that you look for and other receivers.
- 1:11Speaker 1: I think there's a lot. I mean there's like I mean,
- 1:14Speaker 1: everyone plays the position differently.
- 1:16Speaker 3: It's an art form, you know, and so seeing guys
- 1:21Speaker 3: use all these different tools, and I mean the position
- 1:25Speaker 3: changes and grows as guys come in and and do
- 1:28Speaker 3: things in certain ways, like man, that's that's a great
- 1:31Speaker 3: way to run this route, a great way to do it.
- 1:33Speaker 3: And then trying to grab some stuff that works for you.
- 1:36Speaker 3: I think that's the thing I'm looking for all the time,
- 1:38Speaker 3: is you know, what can I use? What are some
- 1:40Speaker 3: things that make sense for me? And so like you
- 1:43Speaker 3: watch Calvin Johnson, it's like, Okay, I can't do much
- 1:45Speaker 3: of that stuff, you know, like he's his own animal.
- 1:48Speaker 1: But then you watch other.
- 1:49Speaker 3: Guys that like man, there's there's tools that you can
- 1:52Speaker 3: pull from. Aj Green with someone I love to watch
- 1:54Speaker 3: because I thought he was a technician in terms of
- 1:56Speaker 3: how he ran his routes and set guys up and
- 1:59Speaker 3: you know a little things from him, and you know
- 2:02Speaker 3: Larry fitz was similar to that. But that's what I'm
- 2:07Speaker 3: looking at. I'm not evaluating guys like a scout would
- 2:10Speaker 3: and say oh can he play this level or whatever,
- 2:12Speaker 3: Like I'm looking for things that can help me be better.
- 2:16Speaker 1: When you think.
- 2:17Speaker 4: About like the notion of this mythical number one receiver,
- 2:21Speaker 4: like what do you think that means to you? What
- 2:23Speaker 4: makes them one a number one receiver?
- 2:25Speaker 1: You just gotta be able to I think you just
- 2:27Speaker 1: gotta be able to do all of it.
- 2:29Speaker 3: I guess I think the best the best ones have
- 2:35Speaker 3: been able to play at every level, you know, whether
- 2:37Speaker 3: you know the short game and the intermedia and being
- 2:40Speaker 3: able to get get over the top on people as well.
- 2:43Speaker 3: If you can do that, I think you give yourself
- 2:45Speaker 3: an opportunity to be someone that can be activated in
- 2:48Speaker 3: every part of the game plan. And I think the
- 2:52Speaker 3: best one is ever block as well, right because you're
- 2:57Speaker 3: like you don't want them off the field, the ones don't.
- 2:58Speaker 3: The ones stay on the field for the majority of
- 3:01Speaker 3: the game, and they'll be they'll show a willingness to
- 3:04Speaker 3: be involved in the run game because off of the
- 3:06Speaker 3: run game comes all of your play action stuff as well.
- 3:08Speaker 3: So if you want to be in on the play actions,
- 3:11Speaker 3: you got to be in there for the run game.
- 3:12Speaker 2: On the Thursday games usually you guys are playing division
- 3:15Speaker 2: opponents and all that, who you know pretty well. Do
- 3:17Speaker 2: you notice that there's a lot of different like if
- 3:19Speaker 2: you play Arizona on a Sunday, that it's gonna be
- 3:21Speaker 2: way different what you might see on a Thursday kind
- 3:23Speaker 2: of thing because of that.
- 3:24Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe some stuff there, But I think these coaches
- 3:31Speaker 3: are too good. They're too dialed in, and they're too
- 3:34Speaker 3: impervious to lack of sleep. It seems like to be
- 3:36Speaker 3: like they're gonna find a way to get in what
- 3:38Speaker 3: they want to what they want to do, And there
- 3:42Speaker 3: might be a few things that maybe they carry over
- 3:44Speaker 3: a few more things game plan wise from the week
- 3:47Speaker 3: before and trying to like defensive coordinators and like, man,
- 3:49Speaker 3: these are some pressures maybe you might see. And but
- 3:53Speaker 3: I mean historically that's it's like, man, you go and
- 3:55Speaker 3: do it expecting that they're gonna bring their best stuff.
- 3:58Speaker 3: And and that's just kind of what it seems like
- 4:02Speaker 3: this league is. Guys are just too good, coaches too
- 4:04Speaker 3: good yea to just prepare that way on a short
- 4:09Speaker 3: weekend and deal with it.
- 4:10Speaker 5: Have you seen this offensive grow from you know, start
- 4:13Speaker 5: of the season Week.
- 4:13Speaker 2: One or maybe it wasn't as smooth as you wanted
- 4:16Speaker 2: to what you've been able to do the last two games.
- 4:18Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean, I think the big part of
- 4:20Speaker 3: it is just execution, you know, it's it's our own
- 4:22Speaker 3: stuff as players. Being able to grasp the concepts and
- 4:27Speaker 3: be able to get just more and more reps at
- 4:29Speaker 3: it against different looks and being able to have answers,
- 4:31Speaker 3: being able to adapt and move and things aren't the
- 4:34Speaker 3: picture that we thought we were gonna get, and being
- 4:36Speaker 3: able to have an answer for it as players and
- 4:38Speaker 3: be able to make it come alive. And there's still
- 4:41Speaker 3: so much there's still so much that we can do better.
- 4:43Speaker 3: I mean, even this last game, and you know, whatever
- 4:45Speaker 3: the scoreboard says, whatever it does, but you know, play
- 4:49Speaker 3: by play, like man, there's a lot to improve on,
- 4:52Speaker 3: a lot that we can do better, and a lot
- 4:54Speaker 3: that's left on the table. And so you know, we've
- 4:58Speaker 3: we've taken that approach and it's gonna continue to get
- 4:59Speaker 3: better as kind of go through the year and sack
- 5:01Speaker 3: these reps again different looks, and it should just be
- 5:04Speaker 3: something that we just continue to get better and better at.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Do you think you and Jackson are getting better at
- 5:08Speaker 1: working off one another.
- 5:10Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's Uh, I think that's something that
- 5:13Speaker 3: I think all the guys it's like how much can
- 5:15Speaker 3: we play for each other? And there's and and there's
- 5:18Speaker 3: there's part of it is also understanding when that comes
- 5:21Speaker 3: to life. You know, you have a concept up and
- 5:25Speaker 3: it's like, hey, everyone's running their route to win, and
- 5:29Speaker 3: then there's there's like a very small amount of times
- 5:32Speaker 3: where it's like, yeah, you're running your route to win,
- 5:34Speaker 3: but you're also running a route to get someone else open.
- 5:37Speaker 3: You're understanding when that comes up, because it's not all
- 5:39Speaker 3: the time. It's like when you can't just be trying
- 5:42Speaker 3: to get someone open when you're the throw, you know,
- 5:44Speaker 3: and understanding when that when that needs to be activated,
- 5:47Speaker 3: when those little nuanced when those little things can come
- 5:49Speaker 3: to life. And I think everyone's kind of learning that
- 5:52Speaker 3: and figuring that out and also understanding Sam, what are
- 5:54Speaker 3: the things that Sam wants to see? How does he
- 5:56Speaker 3: see the offense going and and his progressions and things
- 5:59Speaker 3: like that, because uh, you can work really hard to
- 6:01Speaker 3: get someone open, but you know Sam's looking the other way,
- 6:04Speaker 3: you know, and so understanding the timing of that we're
- 6:09Speaker 3: getting there and I think it's gonna be sound like
- 6:10Speaker 3: schame to continue to get better.
- 6:11Speaker 4: You guys have the most explosive passing offense in the
- 6:15Speaker 4: NFL so far. How why why is that working?
- 6:19Speaker 1: Guys have made plays when it's come up.
- 6:22Speaker 3: We've also been able to you know, Clint's done a
- 6:24Speaker 3: good job activating plays against some coverages that allow the
- 6:28Speaker 3: ball to go over the top. We've had some opportunities
- 6:32Speaker 3: where we're you know, activing underneath throws and being able.
- 6:36Speaker 1: To run for explosives.
- 6:38Speaker 3: There's there's a mixture of both those things, and I
- 6:41Speaker 3: think it comes back to just guys playing fast, decisive
- 6:44Speaker 3: and you know, I certainly being able to have some
- 6:48Speaker 3: where you have times where like man the run game,
- 6:50Speaker 3: where we're trying to get it going, trying to get
- 6:52Speaker 3: it going, but Clint's commitment to that and saying, hey,
- 6:55Speaker 3: we're going to continue to run the ball even if
- 6:57Speaker 3: it's not feeling explosive right now now helps soften up
- 7:01Speaker 3: all the other stuff that we've got going on as well.
- 7:03Speaker 3: And yeah, I think that I think it's just guys
- 7:07Speaker 3: making most of those opportunities when they come up.
- 7:09Speaker 5: From the Cardinals defense, when you put on tape.
- 7:12Speaker 3: You know, it's really really, you know, similar to what
- 7:16Speaker 3: it's been like.
- 7:17Speaker 1: You know that defense.
- 7:19Speaker 3: Uh, You've got Buddha who's kind of you know, he's
- 7:22Speaker 3: gonna fly around. You've got matches energy, if not exceed it,
- 7:25Speaker 3: and he's got the you know, Janet Thompson's there, have
- 7:28Speaker 3: been with him, been with those guys have been there
- 7:30Speaker 3: for a while and playing off each other and both
- 7:32Speaker 3: kind of a body that same thing that the kind
- 7:33Speaker 3: of relentless mindset to be around the ball, play physical.
- 7:38Speaker 3: I think they got a couple of linebackers that can
- 7:40Speaker 3: run really well and run and hit diagnose things. And
- 7:43Speaker 3: you know, obviously spent some time watching that front. That's
- 7:48Speaker 3: I think been improved quite a bit. And those guys
- 7:53Speaker 3: are getting after getting after the setting edges and getting
- 7:56Speaker 3: after things up front. So I don't know, it's just
- 7:59Speaker 3: been a it's it's a thing. It's a real similar
- 8:01Speaker 3: thing to what we've seen in the last few years.
- 8:03Speaker 3: And I think the coordinator there is done a good
- 8:05Speaker 3: job of mixing a few different things. And you're used
- 8:07Speaker 3: to seeing about three safety rover set. It's kind of
- 8:09Speaker 3: been a different structure than you've seen in the league
- 8:13Speaker 3: for a while. But that's kind of it's still a
- 8:15Speaker 3: part of their identity and but mixing some other things
- 8:17Speaker 3: as well. So they present a great challenge.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Man.
- 8:21Speaker 3: There's how they how they insert safeties into the run
- 8:25Speaker 3: fits and things like that, which makes it up makes
- 8:27Speaker 3: it fun for receivers and offensive linemen to try to
- 8:29Speaker 3: make sure we're targeting things right away when.
- 8:32Speaker 5: When a quarterback is good at offscript or like secondary
- 8:34Speaker 5: plays like Sam has been through, which has I helped
- 8:37Speaker 5: the offense.
- 8:37Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's huge. You obviously want to limit those.
- 8:41Speaker 3: You don't want Sam having to deal with free runners
- 8:43Speaker 3: and stuff like that. But those are gonna happen too.
- 8:46Speaker 3: I mean, those guys on the other side of the
- 8:48Speaker 3: ball get paid to play this game at a high
- 8:49Speaker 3: level too, and so you know those are things are
- 8:51Speaker 3: gonna happen.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Sam's been a great.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Job of being able to escape, and I think you know,
- 8:56Speaker 3: it's a good great reminder for us at receiver, Like, Man,
- 8:58Speaker 3: you gotta keep playing through the down because Sam's gonna
- 9:01Speaker 3: extend plays and those become those become big time plays
- 9:04Speaker 3: for us. And we've done a great job creating explosives
- 9:06Speaker 3: off of those that same the same vein so we
- 9:11Speaker 3: continue to continue to work that, continue to practice it
- 9:14Speaker 3: as well, because it is something that does take practice
- 9:17Speaker 3: to be able to play, you know, extending plays like that.
- 9:21Speaker 3: But Sam's been doing an awesome job with that, makes
- 9:23Speaker 3: some big plays for us last few last few weeks.
- 9:26Speaker 1: Acts about that because it camp.
- 9:28Speaker 5: You know, you're trying to get the timing of the
- 9:29Speaker 5: plays in structure, right. I would imagine same thing with practice.
- 9:32Speaker 5: So how much do you rep scramble and off script stuff.
- 9:35Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm the coaches do a great job of it
- 9:37Speaker 3: and making sure that's in our minds to understand that's
- 9:40Speaker 3: part of it. I mean there's plays that are even
- 9:42Speaker 3: built in you have you know, some of our concepts
- 9:45Speaker 3: are built in to have guys in positions to be
- 9:47Speaker 3: able to be ready for those scrambled drills and things
- 9:50Speaker 3: like that. So we know that's part of it. We
- 9:52Speaker 3: know that's part of our offense and it's part of
- 9:54Speaker 3: this game. I mean, so many explosives are coming off
- 9:56Speaker 3: of guys extending with their legs, quarterbacks, and it's now
- 10:01Speaker 3: just incredibly athletic players that you can't just seems like
- 10:04Speaker 3: you can't just get away with being a dropback bashing
- 10:06Speaker 3: where you got to be able to use your legs
- 10:07Speaker 3: as a weapon and makes it fun as a as
- 10:11Speaker 3: a receiver and a tough on defense.
- 10:13Speaker 4: Well, you know, then one of the knocks on Sam
- 10:16Speaker 4: has been that he struggles under pressure. But last two
- 10:19Speaker 4: weeks we've seen the free grunders you're talking about and
- 10:21Speaker 4: him break out and make.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Some big plays.
- 10:23Speaker 4: Do you think it's a fair critique of his game
- 10:26Speaker 4: how he plays under pressure.
- 10:28Speaker 3: Uh No, I don't think that was a fair critique.
- 10:30Speaker 3: I mean everyone pulls that from you know, two games
- 10:34Speaker 3: last year, when you know, there's a lot of factors
- 10:37Speaker 3: that go into those things.
- 10:39Speaker 1: You know, like.
- 10:41Speaker 3: I watched the games, you know, go watch the games
- 10:44Speaker 3: with a football understanding of what's being called, what's being done,
- 10:49Speaker 3: the positions that Sam's being put in, the positions that
- 10:52Speaker 3: the offense was in, in terms of what the situation
- 10:55Speaker 3: was for the game. You know, I don't think it's
- 10:59Speaker 3: a it's a fair critique for him. And but I
- 11:01Speaker 3: mean owning up to like Sam owning up to and
- 11:04Speaker 3: just saying oh, yeah, I can be better, Like.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Yeah, that's I love that. That's an awesome thing about Sam.
- 11:08Speaker 3: Sam's not gonna sit here and say, oh, well, there's
- 11:10Speaker 3: all these other excuses or things like that. But I'll
- 11:11Speaker 3: sit here and say, there's a bunch of other things
- 11:13Speaker 3: going on for Sam that you know, people don't want
- 11:18Speaker 3: to talk about because it's not like maybe you don't
- 11:19Speaker 3: either either you don't understand it or you're not of
- 11:24Speaker 3: or it's not as fun to talk about. It's not
- 11:26Speaker 3: as as divisive to talk about. But he he has
- 11:30Speaker 3: a plan man, when there's when there's something there, when
- 11:32Speaker 3: there's a plan set up for him, understanding where his
- 11:35Speaker 3: options are in his ability to manage just get through
- 11:37Speaker 3: things quickly and know that hey, there's an issue here,
- 11:39Speaker 3: I need to get to something. He's been he's been
- 11:41Speaker 3: great as long as he's been here. At least he's
- 11:43Speaker 3: been awesome with him.
- 11:45Speaker 5: I believe when you when you first got introduced here,
- 11:47Speaker 5: you've mentioned that you guy talked to Ernest before signing
- 11:49Speaker 5: right what the things that he told you. I believe
- 11:53Speaker 5: you said he spoke highly of the ORG. Have a
- 11:55Speaker 5: lot of those things come to fruition some things that
- 11:57Speaker 5: he's been right about.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean a lot of the guys in
- 12:02Speaker 3: terms of just the people, the mindset that the guys have,
- 12:06Speaker 3: the work that's being done and the intention. It's like, man,
- 12:10Speaker 3: people people want to people want to do things right
- 12:14Speaker 3: here and and it's been really fun for me to
- 12:17Speaker 3: be a part of it and real step in and.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Have guys that are going alongside.
- 12:23Speaker 3: You're like, man, the guys want to work, guys want
- 12:24Speaker 3: to find ways, find edges, and uh makes it a
- 12:27Speaker 3: fun place to be a fun place for having coaches
- 12:30Speaker 3: that want that same thing. It's like, man, as an organization,
- 12:34Speaker 3: does it help us get better? If it does, then
- 12:35Speaker 3: let's let's do it. If there's you know, fat that
- 12:39Speaker 3: can be trimmed, let's trim the fat and be more efficient.
- 12:42Speaker 3: And I've really enjoyed being able to step in and
- 12:45Speaker 3: be a part of this organization.
- 12:47Speaker 5: You see, guys want to find edges, guys want to work.
- 12:49Speaker 5: What are you seeing to make.
- 12:49Speaker 2: You say that?
- 12:50Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean I mean one I think you
- 12:53Speaker 3: see I've talked about before.
- 12:54Speaker 1: It's the time. How how are you to use your time?
- 12:57Speaker 3: Everyone's got the same twenty four hours right wake up
- 12:59Speaker 3: in the way, everyone's the same amount of time in
- 13:01Speaker 3: the day, and the at the end of the day,
- 13:07Speaker 3: what you have is how you spent that time. How
- 13:11Speaker 3: did you how did you invest your time during that
- 13:13Speaker 3: twenty four hour twenty four hours? And and and what
- 13:17Speaker 3: was the what was your intent going through it? And
- 13:20Speaker 3: I think guys here they they you know, they uh,
- 13:25Speaker 3: what's the word, they use their time wisely, you know.
- 13:28Speaker 3: And guys are going to be involved in the stuff
- 13:30Speaker 3: that's here, whether it's you know, getting their bodies right,
- 13:33Speaker 3: whether it's you know, diving into the game plans, whether
- 13:35Speaker 3: it's you know, getting extra work in in the weight room,
- 13:38Speaker 3: whatever it is. Like, man, guys are using their time
- 13:40Speaker 3: the right way. And at the end of the day,
- 13:42Speaker 3: the time, the way you use your time is gonna
- 13:44Speaker 3: be a reflection of the goals that you want to have. Right,
- 13:46Speaker 3: you put your head on the pillows, say well, I
- 13:48Speaker 3: spent eight hours playing video games today, right, and it's okay?
- 13:53Speaker 1: What was that reflect was? What do those reflect the
- 13:55Speaker 1: goals that you have for yourself?
- 13:56Speaker 3: Because if they don't, then I'd say you're you're you're
- 13:58Speaker 3: wasting your time now. And you know, we want the
- 14:01Speaker 3: things that we're doing to reflect the goals that we
- 14:03Speaker 3: have for ourselves, and that's to be a really good
- 14:05Speaker 3: football team.
- 14:07Speaker 4: Cooper, we hear about this offense and the other offenses,
- 14:09Speaker 4: and like the Shannan try, is the playoff really being
- 14:12Speaker 4: connected where the run and past games are married up
- 14:15Speaker 4: in your understanding? Is that not the case with other
- 14:18Speaker 4: teams where.
- 14:19Speaker 2: It's more of like a hodgepodge of things that aren't
- 14:22Speaker 2: connected as much.
- 14:23Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you can get Uh, you have to
- 14:27Speaker 3: be willing to establish the run right, doesn't make sense
- 14:29Speaker 3: if you If you don't establish the run, then there's
- 14:31Speaker 3: no point trying to act like you're gonna run the ball,
- 14:34Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So whether it looks the
- 14:36Speaker 3: same or not, if it's not effective, it's not gonna
- 14:38Speaker 3: get out of it what you want. I think there's
- 14:42Speaker 3: been a lot of stuff over the last few years
- 14:44Speaker 3: of guys, you know, token faking things like that, whereas
- 14:47Speaker 3: like again the quarterbacks turning his back to the defense
- 14:49Speaker 3: and acting like he's handing the ball off but nothing
- 14:51Speaker 3: else is happening around you looks like it's a run.
- 14:54Speaker 3: You know it's And that's the I think that's an
- 14:56Speaker 3: issue where you're like, hey, look, no, when we when
- 14:58Speaker 3: you play action, the whole thing, he's to look like
- 15:01Speaker 3: a run. You need the offensive line to come off
- 15:03Speaker 3: with low pads. You've got to need you need your
- 15:05Speaker 3: running back to act like he's really getting the ball
- 15:08Speaker 3: and getting into the line of scrimmage to be able
- 15:11Speaker 3: to hold linebackers or hopefully get him to step up
- 15:13Speaker 3: a little bit, and then being able to you know,
- 15:16Speaker 3: open things up down the field in that regard.
- 15:17Speaker 1: And so.
- 15:19Speaker 3: I think that's some of that in these this offense
- 15:21Speaker 3: that we're in, Like that that's an important piece of it.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Like everyone's involved in that run fake.
- 15:25Speaker 3: It's not about you know, the quarterback just acting like
- 15:28Speaker 3: he's handing the ball off. It's everyone being able to
- 15:30Speaker 3: sell that make it look real and and then being
- 15:33Speaker 3: able to get guys down the field and make the
- 15:35Speaker 3: passing game come alive.
- 15:37Speaker 1: What did you think of A. J. Barner's catch?
- 15:40Speaker 3: It's pretty sweet. It's pretty sweet. Glad he's okay. I
- 15:44Speaker 3: thought I got I thought he was gonna rip his
- 15:46Speaker 3: growing the way he was precarious way of him to.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Get tackled there. I don't know if you guys saw it.
- 15:51Speaker 1: You can go back and look at that.
- 15:52Speaker 5: One Salburt's catching and run where the whole team's pushing
- 15:57Speaker 5: them almost to the goal, and he's like, what was
- 15:59Speaker 5: that for a team when you're making plays.
- 16:01Speaker 3: Like that and that that was awesome and we've talked
- 16:03Speaker 3: about that, but wanting to be even better at that
- 16:05Speaker 3: and more of those plays where you know, we're around
- 16:09Speaker 3: the ball, where you know, eleven guys get to the
- 16:11Speaker 3: ball be on the screen and and that's fun too.
- 16:16Speaker 3: I mean, I think it just shows guys playing for
- 16:18Speaker 3: each other at the end of the day. That's it, Like,
- 16:19Speaker 3: you know, what are you doing when you don't have
- 16:21Speaker 3: the ball? Can you show you showing a willingness to
- 16:24Speaker 3: be able to go and block and and give yours?
- 16:26Speaker 3: You keep guys off the ball carrier, And I love
- 16:30Speaker 3: we all love seeing that.
- 16:31Speaker 5: The work ethic and time management point you were talking
- 16:33Speaker 5: about earlier, that's a lot of stuff we can't see.
- 16:36Speaker 5: Is there anyone coach or player that that stands out
- 16:38Speaker 5: in that regard, like this guy is always working when
- 16:40Speaker 5: I see him.
- 16:41Speaker 3: No, I mean, and I think that's a I don't
- 16:43Speaker 3: think there is. What I think is a good thing.
- 16:46Speaker 3: It's it's like everyone's bought into it. And and the
- 16:51Speaker 3: same way, I wouldn't say there's anyone that's not doing
- 16:53Speaker 3: it either, you know, And that's what we want to be,
- 16:56Speaker 3: you know, as we talked about, you know, the you know,
- 16:58Speaker 3: having been about this idea of being you know, mob
- 17:01Speaker 3: tized being the mission over anything else, that's anything else
- 17:03Speaker 3: that's going on, any o, the BS that's going on.
- 17:05Speaker 3: It's like, you know, we're about the mission, about what
- 17:07Speaker 3: we're doing here, and you know, if you aren't going
- 17:11Speaker 3: to be a part of if you're come in here
- 17:12Speaker 3: and you're not going to be a part of this mission,
- 17:14Speaker 3: you're't gonna be a part of investing the time that
- 17:16Speaker 3: everyone else is and you can't be here. And you know,
- 17:18Speaker 3: and I think guys have embodied that, and that's how
- 17:21Speaker 3: guys want this team to be. And that's what guys
- 17:23Speaker 3: are are creating with their habits every single day.
- 17:29Speaker 1: Awesome, Thank you guys,
