00:00I think it's a couple of things.
00:02Number one is just flawless in the run game.
00:05The mechanics of everything we're doing in the run game.
00:10We've got to make great exchanges, make great fakes,
00:14put ourselves in position to be successful.
00:17That one position can make 10 people right.
00:21And our quarterback plays a big role in that regard,
00:25verbally and otherwise, in the run game.
00:29Secondly, in the passing game,
00:31is be true to our progression reads.
00:34If you read progression and you get into the progression,
00:37you're going to have a lot of times
00:39that your ball's going to get out of your hand
00:42and you throw the ball to an open receiver
00:44before you get into trouble.
00:46So just throwing the ball on time,
00:48going through our progression reads,
00:50will prevent late throws or some form of force
00:55or taking risk with the football.
00:58So we got to play faster.
01:00We got to play within our system.
01:04And if we do those things,
01:05we will reap the benefits of a really good offensive team.
