00:10 I mean, it's a lot.
00:19 Of course, I have to know the most information on the offense, so
00:22 I gotta know what the defense is doing.
00:25 Know the run cans, know the criteria for each play.
00:30 We have a different play, a different check towards a defensive look.
00:34 Gotta take care of that protection wise.
00:36 Gotta tell the whole line where to slide to and stuff like that.
00:39 So a lot goes into it, but
00:41 that's basically kind of what my part is when I gotta focus on it.
00:47 I just know all the adversity I go through is gonna make me stronger, so
00:51 as a person and as a player.
00:54 So just gotta look at the bright side of things and
00:58 think of yourself as going through adversity for a reason.
01:03 That's what happens.
01:05 I mean, yeah, when you have a player like that, you always wanna give him the ball.
01:08 But the defense knows that.
01:10 It's not like they don't know he's probably our best receiver.
01:14 So just like last time, they're gonna put two guys over him.
01:18 They're gonna cloud his side, but of course, when we do get those ops,
01:21 we definitely wanna have, get him in a run.
01:24 You know you're gonna get the ball when it plays for him.
01:27 I mean, I feel like you call a play for DJ,
01:30 y'all say we're not getting the ball to DJ enough.
01:31 And then of course, Moon, and then next is gonna be Chase, and it's gonna be Cole.
01:34 So it's like we have a lot of playmakers on offense.
01:37 So everybody's not gonna be able to get 15 targets a game.
01:41 We gotta spread the love around.
01:42 So yeah, I mean, certain instances where they do put two people on DJ,
01:47 then Moon, Chase, or Cole might get it or something like that.
01:51 So just spreading the ball out.
01:54 And of course, wanting to get the ball in our playmakers' hands when
01:58 that opportunity's available.
02:00 I mean, yeah, it's just the mentality.
02:02 Every day, fight, give your best effort, and put your best foot forward.
