• 0:03
  Speaker 1: today and kind of just the first.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Half, and yeah, it was great to be back out
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: there for one. You know, I thought the guys around
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: me played their butts off. It was fun getting into
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: getting into a game with kobs, you know, and training
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: game practice to get a couple like nonscripted periods. So
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: it's fun to kind of get in the flow, get
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: in a rhythm. Maybe we did a great job on
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: that first drive, got to take care of the ball.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: But shoot, we I feel like we handled our business
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: out there. We drove down, got points I think it
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: was it was it sixteen or seventeen in the first half.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Guys were making plays. We were able to run the ball,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: which just huge.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Uh man. We just we played. We played pretty well
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: in the first half.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Guys were making the plays and when the opportunities came
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: to them, And that was you know what you preached
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: everybody in pre season, the guys that haven't played or
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: getting their first couple of games, like, you're gonna get ourpportunities.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: It's just what you do with them when when they
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: come your way. And I thought guys were making the
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: best of them.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Neat I feel about the how'd you feel about the
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: protection that you had in front of you guys out
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: there like great that are playing in their first game,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: But it seemed like those guys are really controlling the
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: line of scrimmage.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: They did a fantastic job.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: You can kind of get a tell on how you
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: know protection is when you see the run game happen,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: busting out big runs and in return, when you know
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: I got to drop back and pass, I had a
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: pretty clean pocket, makes it easy for me. I appreciate
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: those guys up front. It was cool to be back
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: out there with the ABE. Cool to be out there
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: with Gray, and It's been a couple of years since
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I've been with ABE. It was it was fun to
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: be back out there with familiar faces and guys that
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: you once played with. I thought those guys up front
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: did a great job.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Coach mentioned a play early on where they brought down
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: a safety and a look. You guys hadn't repped a
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: ton yet and you guys were able to handle that
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: ankles on a run play. But to kind of see
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: that group work out of the situation like that in
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: the preseason, get that blocking eggs dudes might have been
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: the one to get across beyond that play too. Would
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: you think of the the work of that group as
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: they kind of mixt pieces come.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Together for it being able to you know, to be
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: a group that doesn't necessarily always go together. Right, You're
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: throwing different tackles in, different guards and different centers in
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: and you go out and like you said, Max was
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: out there, Chen was out there. They got some good
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: players out there in those first couple of drives for
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: us to be able to run the ball like we did,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: for them to communicate upfront on different fronts, different looks.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Then you know, you're going off of last year's preseason
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: games in the year before preseason games and getting a
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: couple of different looks up front for them to be
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: able to communicate and you know, keep the run game alive.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: It's I mean, that's really impressive.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: You mentioned that run line it up under center or
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: eye formation of the full back behind you. Maybe that's
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: when we see a ton in the NFL there is
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: what what do you like about that?
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Look?
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Ah? Man, it's.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: In a way I mean you get under center and
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: you can pound the run like he did and in
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: return gets some play action out of it and returns
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: some under center drop back. He knows how it used
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to be played quite often, and us being able to
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: do that, it just it's got to be, you know,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: tougher defense is a we're under center, it's not always run.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: We can pass out of it. It's not always play action.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: We're gonna drop back, it's not always passed, we're gonna run.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: It's just it's a good, complimentary football and it definitely
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: helps us.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: What do you make out a Tory's night? Scan him
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: out there? I mean, it seems like he's got a
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: little something to his game and kind of skiing it
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: play out like it did. But what is it about
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: a skill set that leads an impression with you?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you hate to say it this early,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: but what he went out and did tonight was everything
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: I expected of him to go out and do based
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: on how he's been performing in training camp. Just a
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: really really solid player, runs the right routes, goes up
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: and gets contested catches, and when the ball gets in
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: his hand he makes the place.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: You know, it's high praise for rookie.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: He still got a long way to go, but man,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: he's on the right track and works hard. If he
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: keeps working hard and keeps doing what he's doing, is
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: he can be a really good football player.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: I know, Pete and Gino are guys who's meant a
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: lot to you in your career.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Was like getting to seat both him before it was
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: really cool, really cool.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: I got to spend some more time in this off
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: season with Gino, throwing in Miami with him, so it
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: felt like it hadn't been too long since I'd seen him,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: get to be around him, but cmp was really cool. Yeah,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: like I've mentioned before, he's meant a lot to me
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: and you know, building the confidence back after being traded.

• 4:43
  Speaker 2: my football journey. Would you think of Ja, Yeah, he's fast,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: He's really fast, really fast, and you know, you definitely
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: saw that tonight. Made great decisions with the ball in
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: his hand as far as passing goes. Like I mentioned,
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: you know, when you get into I mentioned this to him,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: you know, getting into those fourth quarter preseason games, it's
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: all about still m making the right decisions, right footwork,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: right reads, and I I from the sideline, I felt
• 5:17

• 5:19
  Speaker 2: and you know I was proud of him.
• 5:21
