| 0:00.0 | Everybody ready? |
| 0:02.0 | Okay, I talked briefly about our last game. |
| 0:05.0 | I was proud of the way our offense responded. |
| 0:08.0 | What really stood out to me is zero turnovers. |
| 0:10.0 | I don't think we punted. |
| 0:11.0 | We did have the one penalty that we got to clean up. |
| 0:14.0 | We only had a few negative yards. |
| 0:16.0 | So I thought that overall was a big key to the game. |
| 0:20.0 | You know, I think we got better from the week before. We got to continue to improve this week. Questions? Brennan? With the offense being as efficient as it was, was there like a common theme, a thread that you guys were able to do to continue moving the ball? And it wasn't as explosive, I guess, as normal. Right. Yeah, and you got to give them credit. They had a week, you know, off, two weeks to |
| 0:41.6 | prepare. You know, they were keeping things in front of them pretty good. That is what they |
| 0:47.5 | presented to us. We were fortunate enough to stay ahead of the sticks for the most part. That was |
| 0:52.1 | really part of the plan with that. |
| 1:11.2 | But yeah, I mean, we're at our best when we're an explosive place. There's no doubt. But overall, just the way the game unfolded and everything, I like the way that they took care of business, especially in the second half. How did Jacob Rizzi and Andre Otto perform the call? Yeah, it was good. You know, we had some guys banged up. that's what happens this time of year. |
| 1:12.6 | Both those guys went in there, |
| 1:13.4 | answered the call. |
| 2:01.1 | Obviously, Rizzy, You know, we had some guys banged up. That's what happens this time of year. Both those guys went in there, answered the call. Obviously, Rizzi, you know, we feel like he's another starter too. He's played a lot of football. And, you know, Otto was good for him to get in there and do his thing, too. Howard? You talked last week about having to examine what you do when you go on the road because of the last couple games. When you've had teams that have had success on the road throughout your career, like is there a commonality about those teams that are able to do that? Yeah, I think so. I mean, you can always look at experience and all that, but I just think, you know, just mindset and our approach. I mean, we've got to do a better job offensively. Got to come out the gate faster and play a little more free, too, you know, and obviously short week, you know, a short week's usually, you know, you're maybe a little or simpler, you know, which on the road to let our guys play fast and not think about so much, I think that'll be a big key too. Liam? You coached a lot of good receivers, but just the ability that he has. He's closing earn a thousand yards. What have you seen? Yeah, he's a real guy. I mean, I mean, he's a difference maker. You know, he's a guy that we need to try to find as many ways we can in one-on-one situations to give him the ball. But I've been real proud of him. |
| 2:53.6 | You know, he had another big game. And he's been playing without the ball better too. Brendan? Is Tommy starting as he's gotten further removed injury, more confidence in some of his movement? Yeah, he did look a little quicker, you know, at times. There was a couple times he took off, kind of looked like, you know, he had the fresh legs back in the, you know, the first year. So we're strategically trying to get him fresher to the games. I mean, he's taking a lot of hits like we talked about a couple weeks ago, but he is a very durable guy. He's a very tough guy, and he's moved around pretty well this week, too What stands out about it is he staying on defense? You know, they play extremely hard. You turn the film on, they play extremely hard. |
| 2:58.6 | You know, I think they're really good against the run. You know, they've given up some passing yards and all that, |
| 3:04.6 | but, you know, I think they've got some good players and I think they've got good coaches. Now that you're seeing the San Singleton get more and more carries, are you seeing him take strides in those carries? Yeah, there's no doubt. I mean, if things are starting to slow down, he's starting to press it a little bit, a little bit longer and make his cuts, but he's done a really good job just to a true downhill back. And, you know, him and ooze right there really come on, you know, the second half the season. With the offensive line, obviously all five will not be, if the starter will not be here next year, who have you seen from the backup group, the young guys, and you think have a chance to be able to. You know, I think if you look at all five of those guys in our second unit that have played significant numbers of snaps, you know, compared to probably most, I think all five of those guys, you know, have done a good job. |
| 3:53.2 | They've grown, you know, and excited to work with those guys. |
| 3:57.3 | With those Sam Andrews who's getting getting, I think double digit carries. |
| 4:01.7 | Who's that? |
