00:03 >> When you look at the specifics, the biggest one for
00:07 me is the pass game and the receiver play, and
00:10 they kind of go hand in hand to a degree.
00:13 They've got to get this part of the game rolling.
00:15 And I'm not saying they got to come out and throw for 300 yards a game, but
00:19 it has to be a greater weapon.
00:20 And when we get specifically into the matchup of Pitt,
00:24 tomorrow, Thursday, we'll dive in a little bit today.
00:28 We'll dive in that even more because if you can't throw the football on Pitt,
00:33 you're gonna have a hard time scoring points against Pitt.
00:36 I mean, it's as simple as that.
00:38 >> Especially efficiency in the passing game.
00:41 >> Right, and big plays in the pass game, which obviously,
00:44 that's gonna be part of the second half, the final stretch adjustments.
00:49 But pass game wise, they've got to find ways to do three things.
00:52 Number one, Ryan, is you've got to find some sort of rhythm in the pass game,
00:55 number one.
00:56 >> Yes.
00:57 >> Number two, you've got to do a better job, in my opinion,
01:00 of building concepts that fit with the players that you wanna have on
01:03 the football field.
01:04 Again, we'll dive into how players are handled, who was handled this way,
01:10 that way, right or wrong, good or bad, whatever, and more in the offseason.
01:15 Right now, this is just who they are, we're gonna evaluate who they are.
01:17 You wanna play Rico Flores more, Jaden Greathouse more, Chris Tyree,
01:22 Jordan Faison, Jaden Thomas, okay.
01:25 That's, it is what it is, but you can't keep running the plays you've been
01:29 running with those players because that's not who they are.
01:32 So you gotta figure out how you want to use them.
01:35 You've got this tight end depth chart.
01:38 You've gotta find better ways to use it all in part of your pass game.
01:41 And you've got these really dynamic running backs
01:44 that are a big play waiting to happen.
01:46 Find more ways to get them involved in the pass game,
01:48 because you've got to do a better job using the weapons you have
01:53 to get the pass game rolling.
01:56 >> Yeah.
