00:00 And I've got to do a better job of that.
00:02 >> If I could just follow up, do you sense that guys are wearing down?
00:05 Guys have played a lot of snapshots here.
00:07 Do you sense there's any of that late in games?
00:09 >> Yeah, I don't really sense that at all.
00:11 Our guys work really hard, play very aggressive, they play fast.
00:17 They work hard during the course of the week to get their bodies right and
00:19 be ready for game day.
00:20 I don't ever feel that on the field, I don't ever see that.
00:23 I think that I give our players a lot of credit and
00:28 a lot of just admire the way that they come in every single day.
00:33 And they work and they study and they gotta delete all the information from
00:37 the week before, start over, rebuild, go, put the effort into practice,
00:41 understand we're seeing a different offense, we're seeing a different scheme.
00:45 We're putting a new install or whatever it may be for that week game plan wise.
00:48 And every day is pretty regimented,
00:51 whether it's the early down day, the third down, the red area.
00:54 And then just process all that at a high rate and
00:56 then go out and play it on the field.
00:58 It's, for me as a coach, I just look at our players and marvel at how much they
01:02 can handle, it's really fascinating to me sometimes you sit in the front room and
01:07 they're like, clicking through plays.
01:08 And as a coach, you watch the tape all day long,
01:10 you're maybe I've played that meeting in my mind about five times before I got in
01:15 there, and then you sit in there for the first time with one of our players.
01:19 And they're just rattling off the information that you just gave them 30
01:22 seconds ago.
01:24 I understand it's the NFL,
01:25 I understand these are the greatest athletes and the best football players
01:28 in the world.
01:29 But at some point I also sit there and I'm like, it's pretty cool how they can do
01:33 all that.
01:34 It's pretty impressive to watch these guys when they perform at that level.
01:38 Like all of us, we don't always perform at our best all the time.
01:42 But it's that part of the process of what these guys do to prepare and
01:46 get ready and how they play on the game.
01:48 I always admire that a lot.
