00:00 >> I think he's just comfortable.
00:01 I think the thing we learned the first time around was,
00:05 it's not like they're closing the playbook on him.
00:09 He's got the full range of everything.
00:11 He feels confident.
00:13 He's spreading it out to a lot of people, especially his running backs.
00:17 I think Nixon and Brown are doing an amazing job.
00:20 I think since the last time he played,
00:23 he's got like 12 to 15 balls just out of the backfield.
00:26 So we got our work cut out for us.
00:29 And I think one play that really sticks out to me is the last game.
00:33 We had already had the game at AM, but they got a screen.
00:35 And then again, it was like a 40 yarder.
00:37 And I feel like ever since then,
00:38 they've just been really featuring the backs and receiving it.
00:42 >> Do you feel like it's different this time?
00:44 I mean, last time you played them, you really didn't know anything about them.
00:47 >> Mm-hm. >> As a player.
00:47 Is it different now that you've played them?
00:49 Well, not only have you played them, but there's four games on tape.
00:51 Do you play them?
00:52 >> Yeah, there's four games on tape.
00:54 Guys know how to play with them now.
00:57 They feel comfortable.
00:58 We were coming off a game where last time we played,
01:01 he had only seen the second half of the Baltimore game.
01:04 So he's definitely more confident.
01:07 You can build a bigger plan because you know what to expect with him a little bit
01:11 more, but man, he's doing an amazing job.
01:13 Beating T Higgins, beating Jamar Chase, really featuring the tight ends as well.
01:19 But I definitely, you gotta keep your eye on those running backs.
01:23 Cuz last time we played them here, they got off with the running backs.
01:26 They did an amazing job in that, mixing.
01:28 P Ryan last year, but now it's Chase Brown.
01:31 So it's a multitude of guys, but they did a good job.
