00:00 It's good to work as a different team.

00:02 Bigger receivers, also big guys.

00:04 And it was good.

00:05 It was a good game.

00:06 >> Is that important to get matched up to something different than speed, speed,

00:10 speed?

00:10 >> Hell yeah, I'm tired of that.

00:12 I'm tired of cheating wide on the fastball, bro.

00:15 I need something different.

00:16 But it was taller guys, big body guys, you can get your hands on.

00:19 It was a good day for us.

00:21 >> What do you think of Redder?

00:22 >> Redder? >> Yeah.

00:22 >> What you saying?

00:24 >> Quarterback, does he know Redder?

00:26 >> I don't know who Redder is, what's he like?

00:28 What number?

00:29 >> I'm not, that was cool.

00:46 Tyree?

00:47 >> Yeah, it's definitely different.

00:48 Like I said, it's a bigger frame, so you can get your hands on them guys.

00:53 They also fast guys, they can run also too.

00:55 So there's different techniques to use going against a bigger receiver and

00:58 a smaller receiver.

00:59 >> Gotta warm your chest up more than your hamstrings, right?

01:01 >> Right, right, right.
