00:00 One thing is what I found out is just, you know, you, everybody in this office,
00:05 all of the halfbacks need to be able to do everything.
00:09 So they need to be able to do everything and
00:10 then we'll let everything sort of step out from there.
00:12 So, you know, Clyde, I'm not, he's not gonna be pigeonholed and
00:16 then the eight minutes guys are third down backer.
00:18 This guy's this, this guy's that.
00:20 He's gonna take on everything that the offense has and
00:22 then we'll let the chips fall where they may.
00:24 Same thing with Darwin, you know, it's gonna be an opportunity for him this year.
00:27 Another guy I'm very excited about.
00:30 He, you know, he had a whole lot of things last year that didn't necessarily work
00:35 against him, it was just the fact that he was a rookie.
00:38 He had some limited opportunities.
00:40 He did some things that was good.
00:41 He did some things he needed to improve on.
00:44 And he took, you know, inventory of the things he needed to improve on and
00:47 he's ready to come out and do those things.
00:48 So, again, a room full of great competitors, a bunch of great players,
00:53 guys that can do a bunch of things.
00:55 And the beauty of this is once we're able to get back on the field,
00:58 you know, we're gonna be able to start sorting out where guys fall.
01:01 But in the meantime, every man in that room is preparing to do everything.
