Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Get back on get back on the track after after
- 0:03Speaker 1: it's been a pretty tough two weeks for you guys. Yeah,
- 0:06Speaker 1: I think just stay true to the vision. Understand that
- 0:09Speaker 1: the vision gonna take care of all the work. When
- 0:10Speaker 1: you understand where you're going, you know what roles won't
- 0:12Speaker 1: take you there. So I think for us, it's just
- 0:14Speaker 1: about you know, keeping the vision in mind and not
- 0:16Speaker 1: letting you know a loss here, lost there, take completely
- 0:20Speaker 1: off track, stay disciplined, and you know it's it's it's
- 0:23Speaker 1: a simple game. You know, when you do things right.
- 0:26Speaker 1: You know, you over complicate things when you you know,
- 0:28Speaker 1: put yourself in positions that you don't practice, things that
- 0:31Speaker 1: we don't coach and then don't communicate it. It makes
- 0:34Speaker 1: things like yesterday happened? What's that game? Tough to rewatch? Yeah,
- 0:38Speaker 1: it was tough. It was tough to turn it on.
- 0:40Speaker 1: I think watching it wasn't as bad as I expected,
- 0:44Speaker 1: just because you know, you on the field, it just
- 0:46Speaker 1: seems like the worst thing in the world. And people
- 0:48Speaker 1: always say it's never as good as you think or
- 0:49Speaker 1: bad as you think. So you watch it and it's just
- 0:51Speaker 1: like we really beat ourselves, Like genuinely, I know, for me,
- 0:54Speaker 1: I had some technique errors. That's just uncharacteristic. And I
- 0:57Speaker 1: think a lot of guys could say the same thing
- 0:58Speaker 1: about themselves. Like I said, he thinks guys are pressing.
- 1:03Speaker 1: So how do you kind of get out of that
- 1:06Speaker 1: pressing mode? Pressing in what way? Like like you said,
- 1:10Speaker 1: let the tu pressing to make a play instead of
- 1:12Speaker 1: laying the plays coming out. Yeah, I mean, uh, it's
- 1:15Speaker 1: it's a game where you wanna be the guy. Every
- 1:17Speaker 1: week you go out there, you expecting I'm gonna make
- 1:20Speaker 1: this play for my team. I think we were like
- 1:22Speaker 1: we always pray before the games, and one thing that
- 1:23Speaker 1: we brought up during that was talking about sometimes when
- 1:27Speaker 1: your counterpart, your peer makes a play, that's you making
- 1:30Speaker 1: a play as well. Me being in my right gap,
- 1:32Speaker 1: me covering my assignment to the best my ability, opens
- 1:35Speaker 1: up the way for somebody else to make a play.
- 1:37Speaker 1: So I think it's just being letting it be a
- 1:39Speaker 1: team sport. You can't make every play on the field.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Got an assignment, you gotta do it by yourself. You
- 1:43Speaker 1: can't cover other other guys. And uh, that's think that
- 1:47Speaker 1: that's the best way to process. Is that the snowball
- 1:50Speaker 1: a little bit if you don't stop it, you know
- 1:53Speaker 1: what I mean. But I'm talking about like they leads
- 1:55Speaker 1: over the next week, which then leads over to the following.
- 1:59Speaker 1: I think that's a possibility. But you know, with the
- 2:01Speaker 1: right conversations and things that have already gone on, I
- 2:04Speaker 1: think we're already moving in the right direction. Like I said,
- 2:05Speaker 1: it's all about the vision and keeping that in mind.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Does this one feel anything like what that one after
- 2:11Speaker 1: the Lions game was last year, because that one kind
- 2:13Speaker 1: of sparked you guys down the runes? Does today feel
- 2:16Speaker 1: like maybe the day after that at all? I think
- 2:19Speaker 1: tough losses kind of do have a way of reminding
- 2:22Speaker 1: you of a certain game. I wouldn't say the lines
- 2:25Speaker 1: one for me, I didn't play that game one, but
- 2:27Speaker 1: two as well as just for the team overall. I
- 2:30Speaker 1: think each one is just so different because of the
- 2:32Speaker 1: situation at hand. I think right now, we know, you know,
- 2:35Speaker 1: it doesn't take us out of anything, but we do
- 2:37Speaker 1: have to change our mindset slightly and just understanding, like
- 2:40Speaker 1: you know, every Sunday's a different challenge, and it starts
- 2:45Speaker 1: on Monday. On Monday, you gotta come in with the
- 2:47Speaker 1: mindset of, like you know, it doesn't matter who we're
- 2:49Speaker 1: stepping across from. You just got to do your job
- 2:51Speaker 1: and execute our plan, or it doesn't matter who we're playing.
- 2:54Speaker 1: You think maybe some of the outside noise started to
- 2:56Speaker 1: leak in the hearing of the expectation, the hype got
- 2:59Speaker 1: to some of the at the locker room a little.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I personally, I think that's something that happens naturally. I
- 3:06Speaker 1: mean ESPN's on all day twenty four to seven. You'll
- 3:08Speaker 1: see yourself on TV at random moments. I for myself,
- 3:11Speaker 1: I don't think it affects me too much. Everybody handles
- 3:14Speaker 1: it differently, and I think anybody who I can't say
- 3:17Speaker 1: I've been walking around the locker room and see a
- 3:18Speaker 1: guy get big headed over it or anything like that,
- 3:20Speaker 1: because it's part of the part of the game. I mean,
- 3:22Speaker 1: if you've made it to the NFL, you've had a
- 3:24Speaker 1: ton of spotlight already, so being able to handle those
- 3:27Speaker 1: expectations it is a little bit different being in the NFL,
- 3:29Speaker 1: but we've had we've had a lot of guys that
- 3:31Speaker 1: have had a ton of success in the league.
