Transcript

00:00 You have to evaluate what's going on and you have to adjust and adapt.

00:04 That's this business.

00:06 It's a business of winning.

00:09 You gotta win.

00:10 If you don't win, then changes are made.

00:12 >> I know you guys are heading up to watch the tape, but before you head there,

00:15 what kind of goes in your mind of why it hasn't been consistent in stopping the run

00:19 here over the first four?

00:21 >> I'd say really it's execution of our defense.

00:25 Staying in our gaps, really dialing in on that and making tackles.

00:30 That's really it, fundamentals.

00:32 Missed tackles kind of hurt us last game.

00:36 We had guys in position, but we just missed them, myself included.

00:41 >> Attention to detail, what fixes that?

00:44 >> I'd say attention to detail and just, that's really it,

00:47 attention to detail and execution.

00:48 That's really what it boils down to.

00:51 >> When you're watching tape like that, can you become overcritical of things or

00:56 how critical do you have to be of kind of what you guys are doing right now?

00:59 >> I mean, you, of the run game?

01:03 >> Run game or just in general?

01:05 >> Just in general?

01:06 >> Yeah.

01:06 >> I mean, you gotta critique yourself.

01:10 I mean, that's really what this business is, especially when you lose.

01:15 You gotta go in, watch the film, critique it, take the constructive criticism and

01:21 learn from it and move forward.

01:22 But yeah, you can't be too critical, for sure.

01:27 I mean, it's always something that you can learn and grow from.

01:31 >> Count on that.

01:32 People with everything that's going on, you're two and two.

01:35 If you get this one against Baltimore, you're back tied for the first.

01:37 Does that mindset also play into the room or as you guys prepare for this week?

01:42 >> Yeah, for sure.

01:43 >> We've been here six minutes.

01:45 >> Our goal before last game was to be three and one.

01:48 We didn't get that done.

01:51 But we're two and two, we're here now.

01:53 So now the goal is to be three and two.

01:55 So that's where we're at.

01:58 We're gonna learn from the film and we're gonna press forward and get this one.
