00:27 Yeah, a lot of good plays by him today.
00:30 Of course, he can rush the pass, so we know that for sure.
00:33 But the one thing that D-line's gotta know that we gotta make sure we're on sides,
00:36 cuz it was a third and four down there, and we jumped off sides, and
00:40 now it made it third and two.
00:42 So that's harder on the play caller, because in third and four,
00:45 you're thinking high percentage pass.
00:48 You can set your defense up that way, and
00:49 as soon as it went from third to four to third and two on the two,
00:52 then it's either or.
00:54 So we gotta do a better job.
00:55 But yeah, he's done a really nice job of rushing the pass.
00:57 Yeah, I knew that was coming.
00:59 So the reason he's here is because of that, because of his length and
01:04 because he's physical.
01:05 And you saw that today.
01:06 He made a lot of good tackles, crack replace tackle, open field space tackle,
01:12 even the tackle on the sideline.
01:13 I think we'll have to go look at that, but I thought that was good technique.
01:17 We'll have to see where it is.
01:18 He's gotta lower his target a little bit maybe, but overall physical.
01:24 And just he's been wired.
01:25 >> Man, it felt real good.
01:27 We came to have a family fest, and I'm gonna be honest,
01:29 that wasn't one of my best practices.
01:30 So I came in with my hair on fire today looking to redeem myself,
01:34 especially for the fans and especially for myself.
01:37 And I just left it all out there on the court, man.
01:38 >> Honestly, man, I've been down it my whole life.
01:40 I only came out of college, or came out of high school with one offer.
01:44 And that's what carries me.
01:46 That's what carries the chip on my shoulder.
01:47 That's what carries my pride and courage, honestly.
01:51 We did a good job getting to the quarterback, but not only that,
01:53 we created some turnovers, man.
01:55 That first play, I thought it was a heat-seeking missile.
01:58 I didn't know what happened.
01:59 And Kyler, he plays hard, works hard, and he came out, and he set the tempo.
02:04 So I think that really brought our team together and got us ready for the day,
02:08 honestly.
