00:00And then that first touchdown you had, it looked like Philip kind of ran around and
00:03threw almost a backwards pass.
00:05Was that planned or did that?
00:07No, I just feel, he's on the move throwing the ball today, I guess on Sunday.
00:12Found Pope running the bar, scrambling as well.
00:16Then he was scrambling with me, kind of acting like he was running and
00:18threw it down the line.
00:19Yeah, I wasn't sure if it was forward or backwards if he was in front, but
00:22he still ended up finishing in the end zone.
00:23So that's always a plus.
00:26But no, he's a playmaker, man.
00:27He's a playmaker, maybe not with his feet, but with the ball for sure.
00:31And just his creativity and how he can get it out, yeah, absolutely.
00:35Now you said that he doesn't make plays with his feet, but
00:37the last couple of weeks that hasn't actually been true.
00:39He has made those plays.
00:40It's not typical, I'll say that.
00:42I won't say that he can't make plays with his feet, but yeah, it's not typical.
00:45I think that run he had last week was the longest in so
00:49many years or whatever like that.
00:50It's just not typical.
00:51So you're calling your quarterback out on not being able to run more?
00:55I wouldn't say I'm calling him out, I'm just saying how it is.
00:58He just doesn't run the ball very often, that's just how it is.
01:02He has us do that for him, so.
