Transcript
00:00How'd it go tonight?
00:01I think it went pretty well.
00:02It started off a little slow, you know, just as an offense, like as a collective, and I
00:08think we picked it up in that little second half, and you know, had a good little run.
00:11Do you think you were limited by the lack of live play, like in terms of moving your
00:15legs and stuff?
00:16Not necessarily.
00:17I'll say that was definitely one of my skills, but I wouldn't say it was necessarily limited.
00:21If I ask you a little about this, just throwing inside the stadium, you know, with the wind,
00:25have you noticed any idiosyncrasies, or do you even notice?
00:29Nah, I mean, I don't.
00:30Yeah, I didn't see none of that shit.
00:33Do you think that you felt change in the second half that kind of gave you a little bit more
00:37feeling under your legs?
00:38No, I would say I was just trying to give our offense a little more light, you know,
00:42a little more juice.
00:43Trying to pump everybody up, just lifting everybody up.
00:45I know you look for everybody out there, but it seemed like you kind of formed a connection
00:49with Keith Reynolds tonight, like you hit him three plays in a row, and I hadn't seen
00:53that all night.
00:54Tell me about you and him.
00:55Oh yeah, that's my guy, you know.
00:57He's doing that extra work all the time, so, you know, I definitely have a lot of trust
00:59in him.
01:00You know, earlier in practice he kind of fell down on a rod that he would have been open
01:02on, and kind of got down on himself, you know, I came up to him and kind of just picked him
01:06up and went from there.
01:07Does he tell you he used to be an old quarterback?
01:08Nah, I didn't know that.
01:09That's crazy.
01:10Oh yeah?
01:11Yeah.
01:12How much of a second nature of force is it for you to know to throw first and not always
01:15have to run, even though you always have that element?
01:17Yeah, I mean, I would say just development is like super key.
01:22Just being able to know when to run and when to pass, and just know like you're always
01:25a passer until you're a runner, until you pass on a scrimmage and then you turn into a runner.
