00:25personally to help this team uh win this game uh i just i just need to do my 11 do
00:33my job do what i
00:35need to do you know to help this team pop you're listed as 5'8 on the roster to be
00:40able to show
00:41that you can do what you did when it comes to blocking last weekend against two guys who are
00:46far bigger than you what what does that do for your confidence to be able to showcase that
00:54uh i think it just adds on to it you know uh i think it just adds another level to
00:59my game
01:01i have to ask did you ever get those pancakes from travion on monday
01:06no no he never gave me the pancakes
01:11um are you uh i mean i feel like i have to ask this are you uh if you could

01:17waffles or french toast
01:20i'm going pancake
01:23disappointing
01:27yeah gray's a french toast guy i'm a french toast guy all day every day
01:34pop i robert splain was on with us and he said that the only thing he would tell drake may
01:40is to
01:41stop beating himself up about the bad throws uh do you share that sentiment
01:48yeah i mean he's good you know it happens you know uh that this is not easy you know uh
01:56you got
01:56a lot of dogs coming towards your way you know you got a lot of decision making a lot of
02:00things to do
02:01so i mean i think i believe it comes with it pop one of the things that people always talk
02:07about
02:07with the offense you know whether or not it's stagnant or you know a guy like romeo dobbs is able
02:12to get it as people are always talking about that it's so difficult to learn from your perspective
02:17when you look at josh mcdaniel's offense do you feel like it's a difficult offense to learn
02:25uh i i don't know honestly because i was kind of ended my rookie year so i i kind of
02:31learned the
02:32terminology my rookie year so i i honestly well my rookie year was hard but honestly it was from a
02:40different you know playbook and stuff like that so i couldn't i couldn't honestly tell you
02:48do you oh i was gonna say do you look at this offense like it hasn't changed um you know
02:54you
02:54from kind of like what you saw from your rookie year to now has there been some new stuff that
03:00josh has implemented oh yeah you know it's always gonna uh be two with two different coordinators
03:08you know it's gonna be something different you know uh well i picked up on it pretty smooth
03:12you know uh i think it's just you gaining your confidence and running those routes and you know
03:19with them decision making routes has have things changed at all post aj brown going down did did
03:26josh have to to kind of reboot everything once once he was ruled out uh i'm no i don't think
03:35so i
03:35honestly don't know what they you know what they do when they get together but for like uh some of
03:41the
03:41plays the same just a lot of movement moving around i mean like we in different positions
03:48well pop one of the things that i really that i really love and i said this last week so
03:52i i know
03:52josh probably looking at a little bit i love when you guys line up and empty i think it really
03:57creates
03:58a match-up problem it makes things easier for drake may to see and then a guy like you has
04:04that
04:04shiftiness it allows you to kind of work on some of them option them snow routes there and get open
04:09quickly how would you like to see more empty in the offense being called uh yeah anything to you
04:19know i can well i can work you know i i'm loving it pop uh your teammate last year step
04:28diggs has been
04:29phenomenal with the commanders in washington were you disappointed when he didn't come back
04:38i mean a little bit you know that's my that's my guy you know uh a great leader you know
04:44uh he's
04:45hooping right now so i mean he's probably feeling good right now for sure pop you look at um your
04:52team
04:52and where you guys are the importance of this game in jacksonville knowing that you're obviously on the
04:58road it's against a conference opponent um and offensively you know especially when it comes
05:04to your pass game what do you feel like you guys have to do collectively as a group to be
05:09able to
05:10go out there and beat a good jacksonville team in jacksonville yeah i just feel like we all just need
05:16to do i want 11 you know don't don't worry about doing an extra job or like going out of
05:22going out
05:23our way you know i feel like we just need to do our 11 do your job and i feel
05:28like all the pieces
05:29that come together it's a it's just week two you know we just got to build our confidence together
05:33we got a new group of guys working together so you know uh for like once we gain that confidence
05:40and
05:40we keep pushing man i feel like we're going to be good we move the ball we just you know
05:44we just got
05:45finished very similar philosophy that that i run on this show although ours is the 7-11 just so you
05:52know
05:557-11 you're always open i mean i'm trying pop i mean just i'm trying here pop when you bring
06:03up
06:03the confidence for this offense does that start with drake may do you feel like he's confident right
06:08now uh i think honestly it starts with us we have to um i think it really honestly starts with
06:18all of
06:18us feel like we got to help him you know build that confidence too you know i think it's not
06:22just
06:23a him thing you know i feel like i mean all the pieces gotta all of us gotta do what
06:28we need to do
06:28for him you know to be confident in what we're running pop one of the things that vrabel talked
06:35about with drake may was obviously decision making and you know you understand from playing this game
06:40for for a while right now the importance of making good decisions but how important is for you guys
06:47the receivers the tight ends the running backs the guys who are running the routes to make sure
06:51you're getting open or putting yourself in a position where his decision making can become
06:58a little bit easier because you're able to create the space you need good luck thank you oh that was
