- 0:01Speaker 1: Good. Good do you plays back at week one to
- 0:06Speaker 1: see the lessons learn or or the matchups so completely
- 0:09Speaker 1: different this time around that that doesn't really happen. Uh nah, honestly,
- 0:13Speaker 1: we you gotta go back, you know, just because you
- 0:15Speaker 1: wanna see how a team attacked you. And you know,
- 0:18Speaker 1: since we played them twice a year, they gonna know
- 0:21Speaker 1: what we do. We gonna know what they do and
- 0:23Speaker 1: they just come down who gonna execute it? But also,
- 0:26Speaker 1: you know those mistakes that we left out there on film,
- 0:28Speaker 1: we gotta make sure we go correct those so that
- 0:30Speaker 1: way when we play them this week, they don't go
- 0:33Speaker 1: and try to attack those spots again. How different do
- 0:36Speaker 1: they look down without an cut into it as well?
- 0:38Speaker 1: You know, with with with everything and shot Honestly, I
- 0:43Speaker 1: feel like they had a great offense without 'em. So
- 0:45Speaker 1: with him coming back, you know, it's it's gonna be
- 0:48Speaker 1: a lot of fun for them. And like watching him
- 0:51Speaker 1: on film, you can tell that you know he has
- 0:53Speaker 1: a uh you know, more vision out there, more clear
- 0:56Speaker 1: reads and stuff like that, because you know he got
- 0:59Speaker 1: uh seven team on the other side too. So with
- 1:02Speaker 1: them together, playing with each other again and building chemistry,
- 1:05Speaker 1: it's gonna be a fun matchup going against some man.
- 1:08Speaker 1: I like the way the offense looks, so it'll be fun.
- 1:10Speaker 1: What does Nikola do well? Shoot, how can I say this?
- 1:16Speaker 1: He ain't really like a fast person, but at the
- 1:18Speaker 1: same time, he does a good job of hiding it.
- 1:21Speaker 1: You know it may look slow motion, but you know
- 1:24Speaker 1: it got a little speed to him. Very aggressive, smart player,
- 1:27Speaker 1: works hard and whenever you got a player like him
- 1:30Speaker 1: that that works hard. You know, he can play many roles.
- 1:32Speaker 1: He can go block a d lionman, he can go
- 1:34Speaker 1: block on a perimeter. He not just a ball catcher. So, uh,
- 1:37Speaker 1: that's what sticks out about him. What's just your been
- 1:42Speaker 1: like for you? Obviously, you know a little different thing
- 1:45Speaker 1: with the injury and stuff like that, and missing and
- 1:48Speaker 1: missing a lot of time in the offseason and stuff. Honestly, shoot,
- 1:52Speaker 1: I take it a game at the time, you know.
- 1:55Speaker 1: I mean, I just go out there and try to
- 1:57Speaker 1: have fun. You know, it's a it's a weird thing
- 1:59Speaker 1: because you know, the season starts off. We started off
- 2:03Speaker 1: kind of slow, and I feel like it's a new
- 2:05Speaker 1: thing to me because you know, every year gonna be different,
- 2:08Speaker 1: and you know, my first year, you go get a
- 2:10Speaker 1: lot of interceptions, you be a pro bowling and stuff
- 2:13Speaker 1: like that, and then the second year or shoot, you know,
- 2:16Speaker 1: you may not have those same opportunities, or if you
- 2:19Speaker 1: don't have those opportunities, whenever you make a mistake. It's
- 2:22Speaker 1: more I feel like on a you know, magnifying class,
- 2:25Speaker 1: you know, whenever I make a mistake. But other than that,
- 2:28Speaker 1: I feel like it's no different. I'm just gaut to
- 2:29Speaker 1: having fun and just go out there and make plays
- 2:32Speaker 1: when they present them. You feel like you have had
- 2:35Speaker 1: fewer shots to get picked this year last year a
- 2:39Speaker 1: little bit, A little bit. I just feel like, at
- 2:42Speaker 1: the same time, it's just a smart thing for qbs
- 2:44Speaker 1: to do. You know, if you see a cornerback the
- 2:47Speaker 1: year before get a lot of interceptions, I feel like
- 2:50Speaker 1: the next year, you're not just gonna, oh, willingly attack
- 2:52Speaker 1: him just because he gets a lot of interceptions. So
- 2:55Speaker 1: I just feel like that's one thing that plays a role.
- 2:58Speaker 1: But at the same time, people expect you to go
- 3:01Speaker 1: out there and do a lot of things and make
- 3:03Speaker 1: hell of plays and stuff like that. But whenever you
- 3:05Speaker 1: know your own game, you be just fine out there.
- 3:09Speaker 1: You just in the phone room, I dropping to one,
- 3:14Speaker 1: oh yeah, whenever a DV dropper in a session, we
- 3:16Speaker 1: gotta joke around a little bit just because you know,
- 3:20Speaker 1: one that's a we know if we get an intercession,
- 3:21Speaker 1: that's a big play. But at the same time, hey,
- 3:24Speaker 1: they come in bunches, so you know, if you may
- 3:26Speaker 1: not get the next one, that one, you get the
- 3:28Speaker 1: next one. And it's all fun just to tease guys
- 3:30Speaker 1: and stuff like that, you know, just part of our jokes.
- 3:32Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, we know we
- 3:34Speaker 1: need those and we know we'll make it happen. Is
- 3:39Speaker 1: that pretty easy for you all to that stuff? I
- 3:41Speaker 1: mean like that, you know, why do you not have
- 3:43Speaker 1: You know, when someone maybe asked why you don't have
- 3:45Speaker 1: as many interceptions as you had last year? Uh, I
- 3:49Speaker 1: mean it's human nature, you be like, okay, well, I
- 3:52Speaker 1: mean you just think about it a little bit. But
- 3:53Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you gotta be a
- 3:54Speaker 1: realistic and you're the only one that's out there playing
- 3:56Speaker 1: a game of football. It ain't like the guy that's
- 3:58Speaker 1: on Twitter doing and all the stats. He ain't the
- 4:01Speaker 1: guy playing football. You playing football. So as long as
- 4:03Speaker 1: you know what you're doing, and as long as you
- 4:06Speaker 1: know what you gotta work on them. I feel like
- 4:07Speaker 1: I just be just fine, you know. I just go
- 4:10Speaker 1: out there and try to get better each week, and
- 4:11Speaker 1: I feel like that's what I've been doing. Okay, thanks
- 4:16Speaker 1: True
