• 0:00
  Speaker 1: You know, how did your arm feeling that it was
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: good enough to play?
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: So I wasn't thinking about it, just trying to go
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: out there and win you at all, No, not at all.
• 0:11
  Speaker 3: Like you guys offensively asistency.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: That hasn't been there, I think, uh, you know, it
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: kind of starts with every guy individually really just looking
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: at his own film, look looking at his own tape,
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: kind of looking at itself in the mirror and saying,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: you know, what could I do to help the team.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: How can I be more consistent?
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: How can I be more effective on a down and
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: down basis? And then you know, how can I play
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: better so that we can score more points than we
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: were doing right now? And uh, it directly starts with me.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: But you know, as as you know, we're all connected
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: out there, all eleven and so every single guy's got
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: to look yourself in the mirror, but.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Starting with me, and so you know, we get a
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: time to reflect on this.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: It's tough, but we get a time to reflect on
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: it figure out ways to get better.
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: You know, it's along the same lines. I think you
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: guys have three offensive touchdowns in the last four. How
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: do you find that feel that you had last year
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: to start moving the ball better, getting the end zone
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: when you get down there.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I still believe in the guys that
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: we have. I still believe in our coaches, I still
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: believe in the players. I think it's been a tough
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: stretch for us, but I believe that things will turn around.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: And I think what we have to do is continue
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: to work hard, if not work harder, there is no
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: excuse for it. There is no you know, no words
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: that I can say that will.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Make it better.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: But what what what needs to be done is we
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: need to work harder. You know, we need to find
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: a way. We got a lot of talent. You know,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: we got a lot of good players on this offense,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: and uh, we got the right coaches, and so we
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: gotta believe. We got to continue to stay consistent in
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: our works and then we just gotta work harder and
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: find a way.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: You know, how indicative may not an indicative people think tonight.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Was to say where you guys are us? Were the
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: forty nine already?
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: It's one game. It's one game. We lost one game tonight,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: so they beat us. Hats off to them. They're really
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: good team. They showed it tonight. But uh, you know,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: I don't feel like we need to let one game
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: affect the next one.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: You know, we got more games to play.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: We gotta keep moving forward, and like I said, we
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: gotta work harder, you know, And I'm definitely gonna do
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: that starting tomorrow twenty four.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: There's twenty four ten and the third time pass the
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Sison Chicken and your brother. I don't know if you
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: could see if there was contact there?
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was contact.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: Okay, that's my first question. How how pivotal was that
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: sequence there? Instead of a one score game, still a
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: two school game?
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: How could it have changed his stay?
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: I mean we saw it last week with Spoon right,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: how pivotal though those calls or no calls are. I'm
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: not wanting to get on the rest. I know they
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: have a tough job. I don't know, you know, if
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: they did or did not see it, But from my
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: vantage point, I could clearly see him getting held and
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: it affected him being able to catch a touchdown right there,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: and that affected us being able to get you know, points.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: So that's a four point swing, and in games like
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: this every point matters.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: So tough call, but hey, that's how it is. Sometimes
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: you ran over there.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: It looked like you played your case for a call there.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: What did the official tell you? He had no words?
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: You know, you did four defensive guys Communia They also
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: the same thing. Slow start was the reason for what
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: happened today, same one the offensive side and slow started it.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: So how can that happen for the game of this
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: Magnitude Consist team National.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: TV alls You know, I don't know.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: I don't have the exact words, but what I can
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: say is that it's football and sometimes games go like that.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: But I think that's the reason why they have four quarters.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I don't think you know, when we came into the halftime,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: we felt like we didn't have a chance to win.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: We still felt like we had a chance to come
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: out there in the second half and kind of turn
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: things around. And I felt like we did, but it
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: just wasn't enough. You know, we got the ball moving
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: a little bit in the second half, we got in
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: the red zone, we didn't finish. But I just feel like,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: you know, we got to be consistent throughout all four quarters,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: and like you said, we got to start faster. And uh,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know exactly why it didn't happen the way
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: it should have or we felt like it would have,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: but uh, something we got to correct.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: You know, execution is one thing.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: Uh and maybe it's a question for Shane, but as
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: a quarterback, what would you change in terms of the game.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Plan to get the fallout quick or to.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: To change things the way things are for Na?
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I can't say anything about about the game plan. I
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: feel like, you know, Shane always does a great job
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: and I've got his back one hundred and ten percent.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: He knows that.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: H I feel like it comes down to us executing
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: better as players. No matter what the play is called,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: it comes down to the players making it come to life.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: And so you know, Shane's called some great game for us,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: and uh, He's gonna continue to do that. I just
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: think overall, we just gotta stay confident. We gotta keep
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: believing in what we're doing, keep believing and trusting our process.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: And uh, you know, Shane's Shane's gonna continue to call
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: great plays and we just got to execute him.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: How's your ankle foot? I'm okay, I'm all right.
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: So he fed on work, said on working harder. What
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: does that look like?
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys will be able to
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: exactly see that. But you know, hopefully the results will
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: show on the field on game day. Uh.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: But you know, in.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Terms of just overall everything, you just gotta work harder,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: you know, if you're putting in you know, it feels
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: like I've been putting in twenty hour days lately. But shoot, man,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: maybe I gotta put it in twenty four hour.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Days to you know, get this thing right.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: How do you feel like you play that?
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: You know, I haven't seen the film yet, but it
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: wasn't good enough to get a win, wasn't good enough
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: to score any points.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: So definitely not up to my standard.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: What do you think the games against the forty guys
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: the last four you played have gone this one?
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Uh? Shoot man, they beat us. I mean it's as
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: simple as that. You can't really make an excuse for it.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: You know, it's football, you know sports. Uh, sometimes the
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: team team comes out and beat and beat you. But
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: you know the good thing about it is we got
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: a little chance with uh to go against these guys
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: in a few weeks, and uh, I think everyone's gotta
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: take that personal. You know, I know I am, so
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: we all gotta take it personal. Man, we can't keep
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: coming out here and letting them beat us like that
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: anything else.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and
