00:00Hey, up at Flowery Branch on the show, as we always do on Thursday.
00:03It's a great 15-minute conversation.
00:04If you missed it, check it out.
00:05Find it on the Odyssey app or subscribe to the Indy and Randy podcast.
00:08It'll be there for you every single day.
00:10Here he is talking about how to make sure they keep having games like they did last week.
00:13Yeah, it's not just a one-time only thing.
00:15I think, you know, for us, just got to play our brand of ball.
00:18And there's so many different ways to try to win in this league.
00:21And there's different philosophies of how you play offense or how you play defense,
00:24how you play special teams.
00:25And we always got to focus on what we've kind of decided we're going to look like
00:28and try to be true to that both during the week, be true to that on Sundays.
00:32And I think when we've done that over the course of this season, you know, we're playing good ball.
00:37If we stray from that or we don't do it, whether it's, you know, for whatever the reason,
00:41give the other team credit, too.
00:42Here, it's not like this is in a vacuum.
00:44You're playing teams.
00:44So that's what we're always going to try to do.
00:46And it's true every single week.
00:48Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, I mean, the identity, it can be a week-to-week thing.
00:53You know, there's always that thought process.
00:56You're always going to hang your hat on something.
00:57I was looking at it, sometimes you've got to hang your hat on your personnel.
01:00And what does your personnel do best?
01:02And then you go from there.
01:04And the biggest part about that is if they take it away, what's your plan B?
01:07You're trying, you're starting to try to, you're starting, like the great question you asked about
01:11what defines a franchise quarterback.
01:13Franchise quarterbacks win with a plan B.
01:16You know, they can win with a plan B.
01:18Good football teams can win with a plan B.
01:20Yeah.
01:21And so the plan A is always number seven, period, when you're the Falcons.
01:24It's got to be, right?
01:25It's got to be.
01:25He is plan A.
01:26But if they get bottled up like he did last week, what is your plan B?
01:30And I thought they didn't go away from the run, but instead, we talked about it earlier this week,
01:35they used those passes as an extension of the run.
