00:09 >> No, I think I've said it in here before,
00:11 just the comfortability of what's going on around him now is way further along
00:17 than it was.
00:18 Knowing not only what his particular assignment is, but
00:21 being able to direct traffic around him, all that makes everybody else's job
00:26 a lot easier, so I think that's something that's definitely-
00:29 >> I don't know specifically, but
00:31 I think he's improved on every facet of throwing the football and
00:33 to who he's throwing it to and feeling more comfortable in the way he's doing
00:36 that, I think when you know where someone's gonna be, when they're supposed
00:41 to be there, there's a lot of comfort in a quarterback that can just let it loose.
00:44 And I think that being here year two in the system/having a really good
00:49 off season with these guys and a good training camp, I think I would have to say,
00:53 I would have to agree with that.
00:55 The biggest thing with DJ, one,
00:57 he's a great team in the quarterback, so when you have that, that gives you a little
01:01 bit more freedom to the creativity/comfort plays that you can lean on whenever you
01:08 need to, and then the biggest thing for them, I think it just gives confidence to
01:12 the group as when they're in the huddle or when they're in that receiver room,
01:15 I think he's helped boost that room as an entire group.
01:19 It's more about the fact that he's in year three, playing in the league,
01:24 being with his teammates, having gone through a lot of experiences.
01:29 It obviously helps to know the opponent who's on the field, those players,
01:33 their tendencies, what they're good at, what they're not good at,
01:36 all that kind of stuff.
01:37 That all helps as a player, so your instincts are a little bit sharper.
01:42 But as far as the defensive coordinator part of it, I think, I don't know if that's
01:47 gonna differentiate.
01:48 Like I said, every year's a little bit different,
01:50 players are a little bit different.
01:51 But I think it's most important to lean on the experiences that he's had now that
01:56 he's heading into a third time doing this.
