Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: They got liam two joint practices in the books. From
- 0:03Speaker 1: a schematic standpoint, are you satisfied with the direction that
- 0:06Speaker 1: this offense is heading so far?
- 0:07Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 0:07Speaker 3: I thought today was a good step in the right
- 0:09Speaker 3: direction in terms of running the football and getting stuff
- 0:13Speaker 3: targeted and communicated the right way. I was pleased with
- 0:17Speaker 3: the way the backs were hitting the holes. You know,
- 0:21Speaker 3: still tough to evaluate the second and third level, like
- 0:23Speaker 3: if what the yards actually come out to be, but
- 0:27Speaker 3: I was pleased with at least the line of scrimmage
- 0:29Speaker 3: at times. You know, They've got some guys up front
- 0:32Speaker 3: that I have a lot of respect for on their
- 0:34Speaker 3: D line, and I thought our guys played hard.
- 0:36Speaker 4: What do you think just the physicality you got showed
- 0:38Speaker 4: to death. Yeah.
- 0:38Speaker 3: I think that's kind of what we challenged them with
- 0:41Speaker 3: a little bit, you know, to come out and you know,
- 0:45Speaker 3: set a tone and come out and play fast instead
- 0:48Speaker 3: of all right, we got to get punched in the
- 0:49Speaker 3: mouth and then we respond.
- 0:51Speaker 2: So that was nice to see us be able to
- 0:53Speaker 2: come out and start fast. Is it still trending towards
- 0:56Speaker 2: Friday night?
- 0:57Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm nice.
- 0:58Speaker 5: Sure.
- 0:58Speaker 3: I got to see how we came out of a
- 1:01Speaker 3: you know, I want to. I don't want to say
- 1:05Speaker 3: either way yet. I really got to go look at
- 1:07Speaker 3: this tape see how we kind of come out of it.
- 1:11Speaker 2: I'll make a probably a decision.
- 1:12Speaker 3: You know, over the next twenty four hours. Yeah, Like
- 1:16Speaker 3: I don't want to necessarily go out there, you know,
- 1:18Speaker 3: with not your full group, right, Like, the whole point
- 1:22Speaker 3: of it is to try to get more continued continuity
- 1:25Speaker 3: and chemistry and some game experience.
- 1:29Speaker 2: So I'm just not quite sure yet. You mentioned the
- 1:33Speaker 2: Run game. Where did your initial I don't want to
- 1:36Speaker 2: say appreciation, but emphasis for running start as a play.
- 1:39Speaker 3: Caller man, probably as a kid, like growing up in
- 1:42Speaker 3: the Wing to the Wishbone, growing up in that my dad,
- 1:48Speaker 3: you know, when I was young. I mean, that's what
- 1:49Speaker 3: he did. They ran the heck out of it. We
- 1:53Speaker 3: ran the heck out of it in high school. A
- 1:55Speaker 3: lot of schemes actually still carry over. And then you know,
- 2:00Speaker 3: coming up in college too. I mean coach Pacucci, Ryan
- 2:02Speaker 3: Pacucci being oro O line coach at the time, we
- 2:05Speaker 3: were cannon runs oscars alerts kills, so like I had
- 2:09Speaker 3: to be on it, our guys had to be on
- 2:11Speaker 3: the screws, and and it just gave me a appreciation
- 2:15Speaker 3: for what it can do for the quarterback, you know,
- 2:18Speaker 3: and what it can do for the past game. And
- 2:20Speaker 3: so as much as you want to this is a
- 2:23Speaker 3: throw in league, right, you have to be able to
- 2:26Speaker 3: throw the football, protect the quarterback, and finish in the
- 2:30Speaker 3: red zone in two minutes throwing the football. But I
- 2:33Speaker 3: know that as a quarterback it's nice to turn around
- 2:36Speaker 3: and say, like, give me a beat here and let
- 2:39Speaker 3: somebody else do something here. And I think that that
- 2:42Speaker 3: it's always been instilled in me from a from a
- 2:45Speaker 3: young age.
- 2:46Speaker 6: Tanner and Nate made some plays in ye passing game.
- 2:48Speaker 6: What are your impressions just since they've gone here since
- 2:50Speaker 6: May and kind of growth they show.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they've grown for sure.
- 2:54Speaker 4: You know.
- 2:54Speaker 2: I think obviously for Tanner, being a.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Quasi receiver in college was something thing that we were
- 3:01Speaker 3: excited about seeing and curious to see and and we
- 3:05Speaker 3: we thought, okay, he just wasn't really in some of
- 3:08Speaker 3: those positions. Does he have the makeup and the want
- 3:12Speaker 3: to like that's really what it comes down to.
- 3:14Speaker 2: And you know, they've both done a nice job.
- 3:18Speaker 3: I think we have we need to clean up a
- 3:20Speaker 3: couple of things technique wise, and sustaining getting outside of
- 3:24Speaker 3: our frame a little bit, getting a little grabby.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Bork had the one penalty.
- 3:28Speaker 3: Uh, I know he was trying to be physical, but
- 3:30Speaker 3: just kind of know when to let go and know
- 3:32Speaker 3: when to kind of get your hands refit some of
- 3:34Speaker 3: that stuff.
- 3:35Speaker 2: But you know, I've been pleased with him.
- 3:37Speaker 1: He took something from the red zone game, this second
- 3:40Speaker 1: joint that you've been pretty.
- 3:41Speaker 4: Good in it.
- 3:42Speaker 3: I mean, I thought we were pretty good back half
- 3:44Speaker 3: of the year in the red I think we finished
- 3:45Speaker 3: in the top five in the NFL. But you know,
- 3:49Speaker 3: I think that it also helps when the quarterback can
- 3:52Speaker 3: run that Obviously you don't necessarily see in this setting,
- 3:57Speaker 3: but he did scramble right like he made a couple
- 3:59Speaker 3: off schedule three, And that's what I would attribute a
- 4:02Speaker 3: lot of it too, to be honest, is when we
- 4:04Speaker 3: got better in the red zone last year was when
- 4:07Speaker 3: Trevor started using his legs and we saw that again today.
- 4:10Speaker 3: You know, it's not it's so hard to scheme wide
- 4:14Speaker 3: open or open receivers in the red zone, like it's
- 4:17Speaker 3: so much tighter, there's less vertical grass, and especially versus
- 4:21Speaker 3: like three.
- 4:21Speaker 2: Man four man rush. It's just challenging.
- 4:23Speaker 3: And so you watch the around the league of the
- 4:26Speaker 3: top red zone touchdowns every week and the ninety percent
- 4:30Speaker 3: of them are off schedule. They're just hey man, you
- 4:33Speaker 3: got to buy a little time, find a window, somebody's
- 4:36Speaker 3: got to make a little move and boom touchdown. And
- 4:39Speaker 3: it's not exactly how you draw it up, but it's football.
- 4:41Speaker 3: And so that that's definitely helped in the quarterback run game.
- 4:48Speaker 3: What kind of option, says he added to his point
- 4:50Speaker 3: now that he's been here. Yeah, I mean, Jacobe's just
- 4:54Speaker 3: I hate to use the word reliable, but and it
- 4:57Speaker 3: kind of takes like it I feel like it almost
- 5:00Speaker 3: kind of knocks him down a peg, which is not
- 5:02Speaker 3: the case. It's just he you know what he's gonna do, right,
- 5:06Speaker 3: you know, he's gonna get like have a majority of
- 5:08Speaker 3: the time get opened. He's so quarterbacked friendly and that
- 5:13Speaker 3: he understands concepts I think different than most receivers to
- 5:17Speaker 3: where it's like, all right, maybe I'm not getting the ball,
- 5:20Speaker 3: but I truly understand why my job is so important
- 5:23Speaker 3: to do every single play because it may not be
- 5:27Speaker 3: dialed up.
- 5:27Speaker 2: For me, but I can still get open.
- 5:29Speaker 3: I can still get the ball and the way he blocks,
- 5:33Speaker 3: the way you know him, and the walk through is
- 5:35Speaker 3: like if you could just take a rookie and follow
- 5:38Speaker 3: him around all day and just watch his process and
- 5:41Speaker 3: the way he goes through it, the way he practices,
- 5:44Speaker 3: like it's kind of everything you're looking for.
- 5:47Speaker 2: From that standpoint, Chris said, one of the team models
- 5:49Speaker 2: is jags.
- 5:50Speaker 6: Picking up jags is important to see that part of
- 5:51Speaker 6: the team culture and physical practice like this absolutely.
- 5:54Speaker 3: You know, I thought that that was something that, you know,
- 5:56Speaker 3: when we went out against the Saints, like we were really
- 5:58Speaker 3: trying not to you know, like you're trying to keep
- 6:01Speaker 3: it clean, you're trying to get the work in, but
- 6:03Speaker 3: then you know you're getting thrown around. You can't get
- 6:05Speaker 3: kind of pumped either, and so that's not and I
- 6:09Speaker 3: was appreciative. There's no crazy fights that you know, we
- 6:11Speaker 3: had a couple of scuffles, but I appreciate that guys
- 6:14Speaker 3: kind of protecting one another, protect the team, you know,
- 6:18Speaker 3: and not going to take shit.
- 6:21Speaker 2: N you said that the team really wants to focus
- 6:24Speaker 2: on technique.
- 6:24Speaker 1: How have you seen the team start to hone in
- 6:26Speaker 1: on those details from the first joint practice to today.
- 6:28Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was cleaner from a technique and
- 6:30Speaker 3: fundamental standpoint, at least just from a fall, you know,
- 6:33Speaker 3: from not watching the tape and seeing it all, I
- 6:36Speaker 3: felt like we were a little bit cleaner up front
- 6:39Speaker 3: and not you know, you got a guy sustained or
- 6:42Speaker 3: position blocked and you have him and then technique is
- 6:45Speaker 3: losing him, right Like, yes, it's effort and strained, but
- 6:48Speaker 3: it's also you know, refitting your hands properly, getting back
- 6:51Speaker 3: your leverage and creating angles.
- 6:54Speaker 2: And so I think that.
- 6:55Speaker 3: Showed up a little bit better today. You know, I'd
- 6:58Speaker 3: like to see us, you know, we got to get.
- 7:00Speaker 2: Our hands on some balls on defense.
- 7:02Speaker 3: That's something that I've been a little disappointed with is
- 7:05Speaker 3: you know, not getting any turnovers right now out of
- 7:07Speaker 3: these two joints and so, but I've been pleased with
- 7:10Speaker 3: the technique and fundamentally trying to get to that sharp spot.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Yeah, we need him.
- 7:21Speaker 3: We had a good talk, you know, I you know,
- 7:23Speaker 3: talked to Ezra for a while and with we are.
- 7:26Speaker 3: I mean, it's no secret a little nicked up, and
- 7:28Speaker 3: we need the guys that have set the tone for
- 7:32Speaker 3: us and physically set a tone to do that now,
- 7:36Speaker 3: right Like, there's no you know, trust us and trust that. Yeah,
- 7:40Speaker 3: we kind of have a I don't want to call
- 7:43Speaker 3: it a sickning, like we're we got a little bit
- 7:45Speaker 3: of some guys banged up, a trust that. Hey, the
- 7:47Speaker 3: practice schedule, the way it's set up, like we're gonna
- 7:49Speaker 3: protect you and take care of you. But when we go,
- 7:51Speaker 3: we got to go, and we needed him to take
- 7:54Speaker 3: that step. I was very pleased with his energy and
- 7:57Speaker 3: toughness today. Nick start, Yeah, I mean we got to
- 8:01Speaker 3: continue worker absolutely, Yeah, I thought he did some good
- 8:06Speaker 3: things today. You know, he just came off and not uh,
- 8:10Speaker 3: you know, I think you know, got a little nick
- 8:12Speaker 3: in the game. So it wasn't I wouldn't call him,
- 8:14Speaker 3: you know, perfect, but he was with what he had.
- 8:17Speaker 3: I mean, sometimes when you got limitations up front, like
- 8:21Speaker 3: you know, that's really challenging when you're now working with
- 8:24Speaker 3: a group of guys that you know, haven't played a
- 8:26Speaker 3: lot of football up there and definitely haven't played a
- 8:29Speaker 3: lot of football for.
- 8:29Speaker 2: The Jags, So uh, that's challenging.
- 8:32Speaker 3: I thought he had a beautiful pass the Josh Cameron
- 8:34Speaker 3: down the left sideline over here, like when he's got
- 8:36Speaker 3: time and and there's in you know, things happening in
- 8:39Speaker 3: rhythm for him.
- 8:40Speaker 2: Things are good.
- 8:40Speaker 3: I thought he had a great progression on an inbreak
- 8:42Speaker 3: as well. The CJ and you know, I trust Nick
- 8:47Speaker 3: on the.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Top of good foot the offensive Lineer news team, and
- 8:49Speaker 1: on state acquisition of Daniel Filele this morning. Outside of
- 8:53Speaker 1: the injury bug, of course, What is it about his
- 8:55Speaker 1: game that inspired you to want to go out and
- 8:56Speaker 1: get a guy like him?
- 8:57Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 8:57Speaker 3: Just continuing to bring depth and guys that have played
- 9:01Speaker 3: meaningful reps in this league.
- 9:03Speaker 2: H That's something that you can't have enough of.
- 9:06Speaker 3: We came into the camp with sixteen and got down
- 9:10Speaker 3: to about nine the other day. And so when you
- 9:13Speaker 3: have some of those things occur and you want to
- 9:15Speaker 3: continue to find, you know, guys that have done it,
- 9:19Speaker 3: guys that have played in this league at a high level.
- 9:22Speaker 3: You know, he's got he's got some big size and
- 9:24Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to get to know him.
- 9:26Speaker 2: But the experience is really what matters.
- 9:29Speaker 6: I've noticed I've noticed that families aren't always here after practice.
- 9:33Speaker 4: Why is that important for you to have.
- 9:35Speaker 3: These Yeah, yeah, that's what we're like. I haven't seen
- 9:39Speaker 3: my son in a few days. Basically, you know, he's
- 9:40Speaker 3: in the went to the hospital, came back. He's okay,
- 9:44Speaker 3: but it's like I haven'ty you know, we haven't seen
- 9:45Speaker 3: our families hardly, and so to get our kids, our
- 9:49Speaker 3: families around each other when we can, Like this is
- 9:52Speaker 3: no skin off our back, right, Like it doesn't affect
- 9:55Speaker 3: or impact us in any way besides letting our players
- 9:58Speaker 3: and our staff and co just be able to have
- 10:01Speaker 3: some moments and some time. And I hope that it
- 10:04Speaker 3: brings some some levity to the days. I hope that
- 10:06Speaker 3: it brings some joy to their days when uh, they
- 10:10Speaker 3: don't get to see him very often. And uh, that's
- 10:13Speaker 3: something I've learned after having kids, is how important that
- 10:16Speaker 3: is and how important the actual family dynamic is. You know,
- 10:22Speaker 3: for so long I'm a single guy going through the
- 10:25Speaker 3: profession and you're caring only about this and now that
- 10:29Speaker 3: that that tree branches out and you've got to make
- 10:32Speaker 3: sure that you're pouring into people when you can. And
- 10:35Speaker 3: these are some of the moments that we're allowed to
- 10:38Speaker 3: thank you guys were doing good. How is Buster Brown
- 10:44Speaker 3: being teammates with him over the last few years.
- 10:46Speaker 1: How cool has it been from your perspective to see
- 10:48Speaker 1: him grow as a corner.
- 10:50Speaker 4: It's been really cool.
- 10:51Speaker 5: You know you came in, Uh what draft pick was
- 10:54Speaker 5: he like, A yeah, he was a later draft pick,
- 10:56Speaker 5: came in and just since he got here, it's a
- 10:57Speaker 5: super hard worker, very scrap be competitive. Like I think
- 11:01Speaker 5: since the first time we practiced againstim, I always thought
- 11:03Speaker 5: he's a really really good player, and obviously he's gotten
- 11:06Speaker 5: better every year, just as he's learned more and gotten
- 11:09Speaker 5: more and more confidence. And to see him have to
- 11:11Speaker 5: step up in some big moments throughout his career when
- 11:14Speaker 5: maybe he wasn't expected to be the starter, but he
- 11:16Speaker 5: had to go play because we had guys hurt, and
- 11:18Speaker 5: he's just rose to the occasion every time.
- 11:19Speaker 4: So it's just a guy that you can trust.
- 11:21Speaker 5: I feel like he just always does his job and
- 11:24Speaker 5: makes plays and big moments when the ball comes to him. So,
- 11:27Speaker 5: you know, really great teammate and I'm glad he's on
- 11:29Speaker 5: our team.
- 11:30Speaker 2: To get out of today, did you get a lot
- 11:33Speaker 2: at it today?
- 11:34Speaker 4: I felt like we got a lot out of today. Yeah.
- 11:35Speaker 4: I felt like it was really productive. Was it perfectly clean?
- 11:39Speaker 3: No?
- 11:39Speaker 5: I mean there's a lot of stuff to work on
- 11:40Speaker 5: and we got to improve on. I got to improve on.
- 11:43Speaker 5: But as far as just the the competition, the competitiveness,
- 11:47Speaker 5: the back and forth. I mean that felt that always
- 11:50Speaker 5: feels game like the ebbs and flows where you get
- 11:52Speaker 5: some momentum and then the defense, you know, they make
- 11:54Speaker 5: a couple of plays. Then you got to set it
- 11:55Speaker 5: out and get back on track. And I thought we
- 11:57Speaker 5: did a good job with that today. Just got to
- 11:59Speaker 5: find some more consistency, you know, limit some of the penalties,
- 12:02Speaker 5: some of the negative plays. Obviously I had the one turnover,
- 12:05Speaker 5: So there's a couple of things that we need to
- 12:07Speaker 5: work on just to be consistently better. But I thought
- 12:10Speaker 5: there was a lot of great things. I thought we
- 12:11Speaker 5: ran it really, really well, and we made some big
- 12:13Speaker 5: plays in the passing game too.
- 12:15Speaker 4: Hug, this is in the books.
- 12:16Speaker 1: From a schematic standpoint, Are you satisfied with the direction
- 12:19Speaker 1: this offense is going so far?
- 12:21Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 12:21Speaker 5: I mean satisfied is is? I'm not satisfied with I
- 12:25Speaker 5: said where we're at, but where we're heading. I really
- 12:27Speaker 5: believe that we're getting better. I think we were a
- 12:30Speaker 5: lot better today than we were last week when we
- 12:32Speaker 5: went against the Saints. I thought we had a lot
- 12:34Speaker 5: more energy we got after it. I thought just brought
- 12:37Speaker 5: the juice every play we ran it really good. We
- 12:38Speaker 5: were really physical, so there was some big improvements. But
- 12:42Speaker 5: there's football is such a I mean, there's such a
- 12:45Speaker 5: fine line. There's so many details, so I think that
- 12:46Speaker 5: there's going to be plenty on the tape to learn
- 12:48Speaker 5: from and I know, you know, I need to get better,
- 12:50Speaker 5: So it's not necessarily satisfied, but definitely believing. And I
- 12:54Speaker 5: know that these guys, all our guys out here, are
- 12:56Speaker 5: getting better every day, and that's what we're working towards.
- 13:00Speaker 4: Getting the fans kind of excited over there.
- 13:02Speaker 1: How much confidence does it give you seeing the rookies
- 13:05Speaker 1: and the draft picks already so confident and comfortable.
- 13:07Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I just seeing those guys make plays. It
- 13:11Speaker 5: is really cool, and I think it comes from as
- 13:13Speaker 5: they get more and more comfortable with the system and
- 13:15Speaker 5: they can just go play, and that's when their talents
- 13:18Speaker 5: can show, is when they're not thinking. So I think
- 13:20Speaker 5: all those guys are are getting there every day, and
- 13:23Speaker 5: you know, it's not the easiest system to learn, so
- 13:25Speaker 5: it takes a little bit of time. But I love
- 13:26Speaker 5: where those guys are head and I think our tight
- 13:28Speaker 5: end room is awesome and really all of our offensive
- 13:31Speaker 5: guys that have come in as rookies have done a
- 13:33Speaker 5: good job at receiver, O line tight ends the backs.
- 13:36Speaker 5: I mean, they've done a really good job. So just
- 13:38Speaker 5: got to keep getting better.
- 13:39Speaker 1: How much you think miss McQuinn for the rest of
- 13:42Speaker 1: the camp and how how other guys have to step.
- 13:44Speaker 5: Up in that role.
- 13:45Speaker 4: Other guys really got to step up.
- 13:46Speaker 5: I mean, I feel like I've talked about him a
- 13:49Speaker 5: lot with you guys, and you guys always ask kind
- 13:51Speaker 5: of what, you know, what's his deal? Why is there
- 13:53Speaker 5: if I love the guy so much and we've talked
- 13:55Speaker 5: about just the energy, I mean, he knows his job.
- 13:58Speaker 5: He plays with passion and the just the intensity, the
- 14:03Speaker 5: love for the game, all those things. So it's hard
- 14:05Speaker 5: to kind of match or replicate that. But as far
- 14:08Speaker 5: as guys taking over that role, as far as you know,
- 14:11Speaker 5: protection stuff and third down and just knowing all the
- 14:14Speaker 5: checks and you know, we got to step up and
- 14:16Speaker 5: I know those guys can do it, but it's got
- 14:18Speaker 5: to happen. So we got to get everybody on board,
- 14:19Speaker 5: and I know guys will be ready to do that.
- 14:21Speaker 5: But definitely gonna miss le quint for for the next
- 14:23Speaker 5: little bit.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Wet, still figuring out playing kind of playing situation for Friday?
- 14:28Speaker 1: Was today gamesh enough to feel like you're you got
- 14:31Speaker 1: that out of the week.
- 14:32Speaker 5: Its meaning yeah, I mean, I think the joint prices
- 14:35Speaker 5: are really really good, just because they do feel more
- 14:37Speaker 5: more like a game of Sari than always going against
- 14:39Speaker 5: your same team, and you get to see different looks
- 14:41Speaker 5: and guys come in and uh, just that competition. It
- 14:45Speaker 5: feels a little bit more like a game. But obviously
- 14:48Speaker 5: I'm not getting hit still, so that's the one part
- 14:51Speaker 5: that's still not quite like game.
- 14:52Speaker 4: Still wearing a red jersey. But I think as far as.
- 14:54Speaker 5: The other ten guys, we treated it as a game,
- 14:57Speaker 5: and guys did a good job of taking care of business.
- 14:59Speaker 5: And I thought, like I said, we did some really
- 15:01Speaker 5: good things.
- 15:01Speaker 4: So who knows.
- 15:02Speaker 5: I let coach make those decisions, but I do think
- 15:05Speaker 5: that we've got the most out of to day and
- 15:06Speaker 5: we got better.
- 15:07Speaker 6: What does it say to you when you see the
- 15:08Speaker 6: offensive line and the running backs kind of come out
- 15:10Speaker 6: the energy that they had.
- 15:11Speaker 4: Today, It's great.
- 15:13Speaker 5: I mean, especially when you can run the ball and
- 15:15Speaker 5: that's that's such a momentum boost for your offense and
- 15:18Speaker 5: for your team. When you can run it and run it,
- 15:20Speaker 5: run it and stay on schedule. And I thought we
- 15:21Speaker 5: did a really good job of that, and not only
- 15:23Speaker 5: just staying on schedule, we had a few really big
- 15:25Speaker 5: runs that if we were playing full tackle probably would
- 15:28Speaker 5: have gone for twenty thirty, you know, maybe even scored
- 15:30Speaker 5: on some of them.
- 15:31Speaker 4: So that's huge. I think it's been It's a testament.
- 15:35Speaker 4: So one.
- 15:36Speaker 5: Our defense is really good against the run, so we're
- 15:38Speaker 5: seeing that every day and sometimes it's like running your
- 15:40Speaker 5: head into a brick wall and you're trying to but
- 15:43Speaker 5: you talk about all the little details and how important
- 15:44Speaker 5: the are because when you're playing a defense that's so
- 15:47Speaker 5: stout against the run, all that stuff matters. And then today,
- 15:50Speaker 5: when you come out with that intensity, all the details
- 15:52Speaker 5: are on point and you come off the ball. Now
- 15:54Speaker 5: we're seeing these creases hit a little bit more. So
- 15:56Speaker 5: I think it's just that iron sharpening iron and practice
- 15:59Speaker 5: that's really paying off. And we've still got a lot
- 16:01Speaker 5: of work to do, but it was much better run
- 16:03Speaker 5: game today.
- 16:03Speaker 4: It was awesome.
- 16:04Speaker 1: We're here obviously last year, this time you're learning who
- 16:07Speaker 1: Liam is and what he's like.
- 16:08Speaker 4: Are are there things now?
- 16:10Speaker 2: You're still learning about him that you don't know.
- 16:13Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sure, Yeah, I'm sure. I mean, I
- 16:16Speaker 5: guess it's been about a year and a half, so
- 16:18Speaker 5: I definitely know that there's stuff that I'm still learning.
- 16:21Speaker 5: I think as far as our relationship, it's really good.
- 16:23Speaker 5: We communicate, we talk a lot, but yeah, there's definitely
- 16:25Speaker 5: things we're still learning about each other, and that's just
- 16:28Speaker 5: going to grow and grow the longer we're together. And definitely,
- 16:32Speaker 5: though you know how people operate, and then we get
- 16:33Speaker 5: in the heat of the moment, we're both competitive. I've
- 16:35Speaker 5: talked about that a little bit, so you know what
- 16:37Speaker 5: to expect from each other a little bit and if
- 16:39Speaker 5: we go at it a little I think that's the
- 16:41Speaker 5: cool part is that we're both passionate about we both
- 16:43Speaker 5: care about it, and we're able to bounce back from
- 16:45Speaker 5: stuff like that really quickly because we both just want
- 16:47Speaker 5: the best for this team, this offense.
- 16:50Speaker 4: I think he don't bring that out of you a
- 16:51Speaker 4: little more. Is that kind of figgered? Yeah, for sure,
- 16:54Speaker 4: I've talked about that a little bit too.
- 16:55Speaker 5: I think he's his intensity has definitely risen my intensity
- 16:59Speaker 5: just from must snap to snap basis and just talking
- 17:02Speaker 5: with the guys and trying to get energy going. And
- 17:05Speaker 5: I think that that's important and help me play a
- 17:07Speaker 5: little bit more of that edge. And I think our
- 17:08Speaker 5: offense takes that as well, and we're all able to
- 17:12Speaker 5: do more of that.
- 17:13Speaker 3: It's power today to.
- 17:14Speaker 1: Develop a sense of urgency.
- 17:18Speaker 2: S Is it hard to develop a sense of urgency?
- 17:21Speaker 4: You know?
- 17:21Speaker 2: Just in general, it's hard to like.
- 17:23Speaker 5: Fake in no I mean in camp, there's days where
- 17:28Speaker 5: I think there's always days where you know you don't
- 17:30Speaker 5: necessarily have the most sense of urgency as a collective team,
- 17:33Speaker 5: and you got to be able to push the guy
- 17:35Speaker 5: next to you and say, let's go, man, like this
- 17:37Speaker 5: is where we have to grind through it and we
- 17:39Speaker 5: got to bring it every day because that's what it takes.
- 17:41Speaker 5: And that's so it takes to get better and to
- 17:42Speaker 5: be a great team and offense, and you have to
- 17:44Speaker 5: bring that. And so it is like you notice it
- 17:47Speaker 5: more and more as you get older, just how intentional
- 17:50Speaker 5: you have to be with your mindset when you step
- 17:51Speaker 5: out here every day. Because it's gonna be hot, guys
- 17:54Speaker 5: are gonna get tired. You're gonna have to push past
- 17:56Speaker 5: a certain comfort level where guys don't want to go,
- 17:58Speaker 5: and I thought today we did a really good job
- 18:00Speaker 5: of that. And really has camps gone on, we've gotten
- 18:03Speaker 5: better and better. Maybe a couple of days early we'd
- 18:05Speaker 5: have some huge swings as far as we come out
- 18:08Speaker 5: flat one day. I think that's starting to level out
- 18:10Speaker 5: as it should towards the end of camp, and we're
- 18:13Speaker 5: understanding more and more where we need to push, where
- 18:15Speaker 5: we need to stay on guys and keep them going,
- 18:17Speaker 5: and where we also need to just take it on
- 18:20Speaker 5: ourselves and be ready to go. And I think guys
- 18:22Speaker 5: have done a good job.
- 18:23Speaker 6: Cleveland and Anton Harrison stepped up with all the shifts
- 18:26Speaker 6: in the offensive line, done.
- 18:28Speaker 5: A great job. I mean, those guys just bouncing around.
- 18:31Speaker 5: Obviously Anton's slip sides. Ezras played both guards and some tackle,
- 18:36Speaker 5: and you know he's moved around a lot. I think
- 18:38Speaker 5: just showing that flexibility and versatility of those guys up
- 18:41Speaker 5: front is really important. And guys just I mean, it's
- 18:43Speaker 5: the most selfless group in football.
- 18:45Speaker 4: Just it really is.
- 18:46Speaker 5: Those guys move everywhere, do whatever the team needs, even
- 18:49Speaker 5: if it's not the most comfortable thing for him. And
- 18:52Speaker 5: you don't hear, you don't hear any complaints about it.
- 18:54Speaker 5: So I'm just happy those guys are able to do
- 18:56Speaker 5: that for one, but willing to do it all right,
- 19:00Speaker 5: guys appreciate it.
