00:00 Over to the right here, Clay Hall, WSYX, and then Dylan Davis.
00:02 I think it was a career night for Kyle, wasn't it?
00:05 335 yards passing.
00:09 Could Marv ever throw the football, coach?
00:12 Can he throw?
00:13 We're going to leave him just catching, I think.
00:16 He can throw it all right, but not good enough.
00:18 No, I don't think so.
00:20 Game situation.
00:21 I'd have to look at it and see if he can do it.
00:24 He does a good job of catching.
00:26 Over to the left, Cameron Teague, Robinson, the athletic.
00:28 Ryan, you mentioned the double teams Marv got.
00:31 It's been all year, bracketing, double team, triple team.
00:33 When, as a play caller, how much do
00:36 you have to think on a week-to-week basis?
00:38 How creative can I get in getting him the ball in space?
00:41 Yeah, we want to get everybody involved.
00:47 We saw Cade have seven targets, and sometimes you
00:49 design a play where you think it's going to go somewhere,
00:52 and it goes somewhere else.
00:53 I think Julian Fleming's playing really good football right now,
00:55 too, and you just--
00:56 the ball hasn't quite gone a couple of times,
00:58 but it's going to.
00:59 And with Mac, every week he's getting stronger,
01:02 and we know what he can do.
01:05 And then you got Trey and the running backs, Chip.
01:08 And I thought Xavier ran hard today, too,
01:10 and had a couple of plays down the field, which was great.
01:13 But yeah, you try to do everything
01:16 you can to put the guys in position to make plays,
01:20 but ultimately they have to do it.
01:21 And there were times tonight where he was double covered
01:24 and he's looking open.
01:26 One coming out of the half, pretty sure
01:29 that was double coverage.
01:30 He ran right through it.
01:31 And I have to watch the film, but I thought
01:33 Mecca ran a nice route, too.
01:34 I think he was probably open as well.
01:37 But just every time that happens,
01:38 other guys are going to be in one-on-one situations.
01:41 They have to be able to capitalize.
01:42 And Kyle's got to find those guys,
01:44 but I thought that happened tonight.
01:46 Good to see us get off to a hot start.
01:49 And we're playing complimentary football like that.
01:51 That's our-- that's what we can be.
01:54 And this is what we want to be playing our best.
01:56 Over to the right, Dylan Davis, Delaware Gazette,
01:59 and then Austin Ward.
02:00 I asked you on Tuesday what you can
02:01 learn from games like this that maybe mismatches
02:03 compared to bigger matchups.
02:05 I guess, what is your biggest takeaway from this game?
02:07 Is there anything that really--
02:08 I just feel like we're getting all of our pieces back.
02:11 I think you're starting to see our identity.
02:12 Start to forge a little bit what we're doing on offense.
02:15 Here, sometimes it takes a little bit longer
02:16 to figure that out.
02:18 And I think you see us play with more confidence.
02:21 That was-- sorry to cut you off, Jerry.
02:23 I think you guys were asking me this week about the game
02:27 against Rutgers.
02:28 I was a little clunky at times.
02:29 I said a lot of guys played well.
02:31 I felt like one team that was encouraging and it was coming.
02:35 So I kind of felt like something like this
02:37 was right around the corner.
02:38 We were knocking on the door.
02:40 So counting on this to continue to push us forward
02:44 with the momentum to finish the season the way we should.
