Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Take it. Take us to the interception there.
- 0:02Speaker 2: From the press box, it looked like that was gonna
- 0:04Speaker 2: be wide open.
- 0:05Speaker 3: But the pretty good there. Yeah, you know, I thought
- 0:09Speaker 3: I was gonna get to pick on the spray out.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Uh didn't spray out, so his hinge and then it
- 0:13Speaker 3: saw kind of his eyes open up.
- 0:15Speaker 1: Four had a little scene, was able to make a play.
- 0:20Speaker 1: Just the two turnovers back to back. For you guys,
- 0:22Speaker 1: it wasn't really close that offense.
- 0:27Speaker 3: Yeah, we felt good defensively, you know, we felt like
- 0:29Speaker 3: we were doing good stuff. That first half was great.
- 0:32Speaker 3: They had that one drive, but we just knew we
- 0:34Speaker 3: get the ball. Get our offense is a shorter field
- 0:36Speaker 3: opportunity to just you know, put the ball in the
- 0:39Speaker 3: end zone.
- 0:39Speaker 1: And so yeah, that was good. That stretches. I mean,
- 0:42Speaker 1: that's how we've been this year.
- 0:43Speaker 3: I think we you know, we we chip away, we
- 0:45Speaker 3: work on our process, do all the things, uh, But
- 0:49Speaker 3: end of the day, people just make plays. And when
- 0:51Speaker 3: you make plays, it just creates a spark. What do
- 0:53Speaker 3: you make of Marcus Lawrence, who's supposed to be talked
- 0:56Speaker 3: about maybe.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Even retiring, running down Bryce Young a couple of times
- 0:59Speaker 1: in the open field. He's special.
- 1:02Speaker 3: You know, he he just creates something different for our defense.
- 1:05Speaker 3: I think he gives he's a perimeter killer. Uh. His
- 1:09Speaker 3: his effort as long as he's been playing is is
- 1:12Speaker 3: real special. Uh. And then he's his whole career has
- 1:15Speaker 3: been finding that ball and he hit the punch out.
- 1:16Speaker 3: He's chasing people down on the perimeter. Uh.
- 1:19Speaker 1: We we need him out there.
- 1:20Speaker 3: And uh, yeah, we're a really good defense with d
- 1:23Speaker 3: long the field.
- 1:26Speaker 1: You for half a.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Season, plays really well. Come in, he's flying around.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Say about what he's done this year.
- 1:32Speaker 3: It's been it's been a great story in a great
- 1:35Speaker 3: year for Tye.
- 1:36Speaker 1: He's battling through.
- 1:37Speaker 3: He works, you know, his ass off, obviously feeling in
- 1:40Speaker 3: for me and then you know, right now for being
- 1:43Speaker 3: and he just you don't miss a beat.
- 1:44Speaker 1: You know he's in.
- 1:45Speaker 3: I mean early in the game, he's making his his
- 1:47Speaker 3: presence felt, and.
- 1:48Speaker 1: He making his present felt on the sideline. Uh. A
- 1:51Speaker 1: few of the players mentioning how how well he's playing.
- 1:54Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:54Speaker 3: And so he's done a great job. And I think
- 1:57Speaker 3: he's he's he's a main name for himself for sure,
- 2:00Speaker 3: which I love to see.
- 2:02Speaker 2: How difficult is it too? In that instance where he's
- 2:05Speaker 2: been playing your position. I know there's a lot of
- 2:07Speaker 2: carry over there, but to have to jump in where
- 2:10Speaker 2: Kobe's been at some of the different roles and then
- 2:13Speaker 2: just to be able to just be able to instantly
- 2:15Speaker 2: do that and play both.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Yeah, for Tye, it's it's not easy. It's definitely not easy. Yeah,
- 2:23Speaker 1: he grinds, but he puts in the work.
- 2:25Speaker 3: He's he's at the facility super early every day, taking
- 2:28Speaker 3: care of his body, meeting actually with coaches, doing his stuff.
- 2:31Speaker 1: He's just a true pro.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Like he's before the game, he's with a pen and
- 2:35Speaker 3: the call sheet, going through, writing notes on some stuff
- 2:37Speaker 3: before every series.
- 2:38Speaker 1: You know, if you hear him, I'm sure you probably
- 2:40Speaker 1: hear him the press box.
- 2:40Speaker 3: He's he's calling out what personnel they're in down in
- 2:43Speaker 3: distance situation.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Like he's doing everything.
- 2:47Speaker 3: Off the field to be successful, and so it's no
- 2:50Speaker 3: surprise why he can fill into a role and do well.
- 2:52Speaker 3: What's the biggest difference between the two safety positions. Yeah, yeah,
- 2:57Speaker 3: so so far he's been able to play the boundary safety.
- 3:00Speaker 3: He filled it for me, and today I filled in
- 3:02Speaker 3: pretty much played the field for.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Cob and I don't know, you might be in the fit.
- 3:06Speaker 3: There's a little bit more action this year in the boundary, uh,
- 3:09Speaker 3: in terms of the run fit some past kind of
- 3:12Speaker 3: tough schemes.
- 3:13Speaker 1: UH.
- 3:14Speaker 3: And for us, you might be in coverage, you know,
- 3:15Speaker 3: more often, and so as that in the field, you
- 3:18Speaker 3: gotta be the quarterbacks.
- 3:20Speaker 1: Kobe has been a great quarterback for us all.
- 3:22Speaker 3: Year because you're communicating across the ball to the nickel,
- 3:25Speaker 3: to the linebackers, to the near corner, to me on
- 3:28Speaker 3: the boundary, and so it's a little bit different. But
- 3:31Speaker 3: in this defense, the special thing is that Kobe played
- 3:35Speaker 3: corner in college.
- 3:36Speaker 1: I played corner in college. I play a little corner
- 3:37Speaker 1: in college.
- 3:38Speaker 3: Like everyone's pretty multiple, everyone could do whatever. So let's
- 3:41Speaker 3: just you know, have different looks.
- 3:43Speaker 1: Just be one game away from you know, the number
- 3:45Speaker 1: one seed. It's exciting.
- 3:48Speaker 3: I mean, you take a step back, you know, it's
- 3:50Speaker 3: a it's a big game next.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Week and all that stuff. Like I've never been in
- 3:53Speaker 1: this position before, Like you gotta kind of love it.
- 3:57Speaker 3: You gotta just approach this next week just like I
- 4:00Speaker 3: don't know, love in your heart was just gratitude of like, man,
- 4:03Speaker 3: we're in a position to really to really punch our ticket.
- 4:05Speaker 1: In a great way. And so yeah, I just think
- 4:08Speaker 1: the whole team is fired up. We're excited.
- 4:10Speaker 3: We know that across the ball is gonna be you know,
- 4:13Speaker 3: trying to do the same thing. But this is these moments, man,
- 4:17Speaker 3: we we just want to seize. And I haven't had
- 4:19Speaker 3: too many of these moments in my career, and so
- 4:20Speaker 3: I'm ready to just take it. You guys, Honestly, it's
- 4:29Speaker 3: a great It starts with Mike, but it's support staff.
- 4:32Speaker 1: You know, we strength coach, uh, Mark.
- 4:34Speaker 3: Phillip, It's Nico Easy, he's referred to. It's a bunch
- 4:40Speaker 3: of guys. Like the music is over loud. Uh, we
- 4:44Speaker 3: all depart super early for these games, so nine thirty
- 4:46Speaker 3: everyone leaves.
- 4:47Speaker 1: For certain games, there's it's layered approach.
- 4:49Speaker 3: But for these games, like everyone leaving earlier though music
- 4:52Speaker 3: is so loud, they like forces you to wake up.
- 4:54Speaker 1: And this is the support staff.
