00:00 - Winning at home.
00:00 - I just, listen, I just, you know what?
00:02 I just told him I'm tired of sitting at the podium,
00:06 talking to you guys, not playing well at home.
00:08 So yeah, yeah, it's time.
00:11 I mean, we've got a good home field event.
00:13 We got great tradition at home, crowd noise,
00:16 all of those things that can help us
00:18 and we need to take advantage of it.
00:19 Now this crew that's officiating this weekend is right,
00:22 you know, of 17, they're second
00:24 and fouls called, line of scrimmage.
00:27 You, I could go on and on.
00:28 So we got to be smart at the line of scrimmage
00:31 and take advantage of the noise.
00:33 - And is there, I guess, a reference?
00:34 - Russ is relentlessly positive.
00:36 But how have you--
00:37 - I like that.
00:38 - How do you think he's responded?
00:39 His last couple of weeks have been a little rugged.
00:41 - Yeah, listen.
00:41 - How do you think he's responded this week?
00:43 - Fantastic.
00:43 Early morning notes, all, you know,
00:47 he prepares like, like all of the top guys do, you know?
00:53 And I, if you ever did like a work week
00:57 in the life of a quarterback, it's pretty,
01:00 not exhausting, but it's long.
01:03 Well, he's athletic, you know,
01:05 we never talk about a quarterback's threat with their legs
01:08 if they've just pocket passers.
01:09 So you answered the question already, you know,
01:11 it's the third down.
01:13 When you choose to play man and your eyes are on players,
01:18 as opposed to zone,
01:20 you got to be on point with your rush plan.
01:23 You know, if you're playing zone, your eyes are through,
01:26 but if you're, you know, he's not the type of player
01:29 you're going to play two man against, you know,
01:31 where everyone's eyes are on the routes.
01:33 Now there's some quarterbacks, you're comfortable with that.
01:37 So your third down, that comes to mind, you know,
01:42 rushing him properly comes to mind.
