00:00Yeah, I mean first is mine, but they are still really good from the last two games.

00:09Obviously Kevin haven't changed a whole lot.

00:11We added a couple of different wrinkles.

00:12So just trying to figure out ways to continue to provide answers every single step, but

00:16also for it to adapt and adjust based on what we did in the first game.

00:20Obviously had some success, but took it later in the fourth quarter, having those 17 points

00:24to kind of come back and give us a shot that wasn't a football game, but it's been off

00:27to a good start.

00:28I think it's having answers.

00:29I think this defense tried to dictate the flow of an offense, which makes it really

00:33hard when it comes to what you call, when you call it, having to always make alerts.

00:37So having built in answers within a play, but also picking and choosing our spots to

00:41take some shots.

00:42Yeah, I would say that.

00:43And also he's not playing scared.

00:44So he's ripping some footballs in tight windows.

00:46I think it's probably even more impressive.

00:48It's not like sitting back there, not taking opportunities or taking chances down the field.

00:52We always talk about trying to find ways to be aggressive, like not reckless is a fine

00:56difference between the two of them, but I think his progression when it comes to understanding

01:00the offense operation wise, but also just let it rip has been positive for us.

01:06When I was a part of, but also inherited, I'm trying to find some ways to kind of put

01:10some different wrinkles in here and there, but also just overall fundamental development

01:13when it comes to under center play, to the play action game, to reading defenses.

01:18But I mean, his natural God given ability is why he's here.

01:21So I can't coach that.

01:22Nobody can.

01:23So I'm trying to find ways to build with the skillset and the fundamentals and put them

01:27together to be the best he can be.
