00:00 >> How is the team handling the lead up to this game?
00:03 >> I think fine, just business as usual,
00:07 this week practice prep, study all that.
00:11 Nothing in that order.
00:14 >> You've got a lot of guys that have never played a Monday night game,
00:16 obviously.
00:17 Is there anything specific you talk to them about, about whether Monday or
00:22 today or anything like that?
00:23 Do you, nothing just like- >> Last time I checked,
00:25 it was still 60 minutes.
00:28 We put it on a team, we kick it off, and we play football.
00:30 So sometimes we make it bigger than it really is.
00:34 And listen, it's a big to do, I think, to play on Monday night.
00:40 It's exciting for everybody, but at the same time,
00:43 it just boils down to just doing your job and a football game.
00:47 And do everything you can to try to win.
00:50 >> Does that put a little stress on the staff though,
00:52 because the next week they have a game, it's the short week,
00:54 like a Thursday type of thing, same thing?
00:56 >> No.
00:56 >> What do you see from the Bengals, what stands out for you about them?
01:04 >> Offensively, you look at them, and they do a little bit of everything.
01:10 They're gonna spread the field, give you some empty formations,
01:14 they'll try to simplify some reads, possibly from the quarterback that way.
01:18 Obviously, you utilize the run game, screens have been a big part of this
01:23 offense, TK obviously is trending towards playing.
01:29 And if they get him back, we got two big weapons to get the ball to,
01:35 obviously, and big playmakers, and you're seeing that show up in these games.
01:41 Defensively, it's a solid unit.
01:46 You're seeing a blitz package that we haven't seen this season from teams.
01:53 So we've got to be prepared for that.
01:54 They're gonna mix coverage,
01:56 got a really good couple of edge pressure guys again.
02:01 And so it's just a solid team, it's a real solid team.
02:06 It's obviously unfortunate with the quarterback being down,
02:11 but it's still a good team.
