00:07 Just playing more together and I think that's the biggest thing,
00:12 from the edges, from the interior.
00:14 Even we get some good rushes and
00:16 then we're just not playing complimentary football with our backhand either.
00:20 They'll be playing really good coverage where we don't get as good as a rush and
00:25 then vice versa.
00:26 It's just about playing complimentary football with our secondary.
00:31 And also just being more on the same page with our D tackles, as an edge player.
00:38 >> What goes into getting on the same page with your D tackles?
00:40 You mentioned that, how do you guys work on that?
00:42 >> It's a communicating pre-snap.
00:44 And it's just, I feel like when you're out there sometimes,
00:50 it's just sometimes it just doesn't work.
00:54 Sometimes there's no communication and
00:58 there's a wide open knee gap for the quarterback to go right through.
01:00 So I think communication was a really big thing this week and
01:05 I think that's what we've been working on.
01:07 Me and all these guys, we want it more than anything.
01:09 It was obviously a little frustrating last game, even week one.
01:14 But we're working on it and we'll be better.
