00:00 >> No, I haven't actually, I haven't.
00:04 It's hard to explain, it's a real life shootout.
00:06 >> Yeah, I mean when you're scoring like that,
00:09 you always think you're gonna have the best shot in the ball.
00:11 So when you got to play, how do you do it?
00:13 >> Every opportunity, test the ball, you know we need to score.
00:16 We tried to take half, but we didn't put a point.
00:18 That's unacceptable from my standpoint, from the whole office standpoint,
00:21 because we said every time we took a ball, we were supposed to score.
00:24 >> How does a play look at today?
00:26 Do you have time, do you have time to play?
00:29 >> I mean, at the end of the game, obviously everybody's in the end zone.
00:33 When I scram around, hopefully somebody caught the wide open and
00:36 just give them a playmaker chance to go make a play.
00:38 So that was it.
00:40 >> Sorry, how much do you think those couple penalties kind of hurt there?
00:42 You guys really got off to a great start on that drive and
00:44 built up to a good performance in your game.
00:46 And kind of went back from there,
00:48 just how you think that kind of affected the last five games?
00:50 >> Yeah, I mean, just throughout the whole game, penalties, kill drives,
00:54 just a couple of penalties throughout the whole game.
00:57 And just mistakes around for everybody.
00:59 As close as we played on offense, we could have played a lot better.
01:05 >> Brian talked about this team needing to be pissed off after a game like this.
01:08 And resetting the season, I guess, is something.
01:11 As a team leader, how do you feel about picking up the pieces after such
01:14 a crazy afternoon?
01:16 >> Yeah, I mean, just how do we approach this next week?
01:20 We can either go right or we can go left.
01:22 Going out there, me being the captain and leader of the team,
01:26 I'm a full guy with you.
01:27 I wanna finish my last year off strong, game by game.
01:31 I just wanna enjoy my last year and I want you guys to enjoy it too.
01:35 >> Brian Thomas is kind of emerging as a key piece for you guys offensively.
01:38 What have you seen from his game and
01:39 just kind of reaching that next level for you guys?
01:42 >> Yeah, I mean, he's been putting in the work on the practice field.
01:45 Day in and day out.
01:46 He's a very intelligent football player.
01:48 He makes plays.
01:49 So if I give him a chance to make a play, he's gonna make a play.
01:51 >> How easy does it make it for you kind of having another guy alongside Malik
01:54 neighbors and opening up the offense a little bit more in the passing game?
01:57 >> Very easy.
01:58 If defense wanna go in there and try to keep their eyes on the team to leap,
02:02 we have a one on one with Brian Thomas.
02:04 It makes it real easy.
02:05 >> What does the rally of the troops message look like this week?
02:08 Obviously, you guys are in the hole.
02:09 You're gonna have to play perfect going out.
02:11 >> Yeah, we gotta finish strong.
02:14 Do your job day in and day out.
02:16 People that wanna be on, be on.
02:17 People that don't, pop off.
02:19 Go figure out something else, go do something else.
02:23 But I don't want 11 guys off it, 22 guys.
02:26 I'm gonna go out there and give it all, play with the heart.
02:28 >> What about the team aspect of this?
02:30 The defense obviously is struggling, they're going to struggle.
02:32 Like you said, the offense is gonna need to do it as well.
02:35 >> Yeah, we just do the job.
