00:00You know, a lot of change here really this past month or so, and so

00:04he's kind of dealing with all that.

00:07But I know guys are excited about TB and what he brings, obviously from the offensive

00:11side, we've seen what he can do for us, kind of leading us the past few weeks.

00:16But I know the guys have responded well so far.

00:21It's a lot, I'm not gonna lie, it's tough.

00:22And obviously, you understand that there could be a lot of change coming,

00:29we'll kind of see what happens there.

00:31But I think the challenge is not necessarily focusing on that,

00:34but focusing on the week and the prep ahead.

00:37So I think that's been my kind of challenge.

00:39And I'm looking forward to getting out in the field,

00:42kind of doing a trip as a team out west and going out there and playing Sunday.

00:47We haven't upheld our standard totally of that throughout the year, and

00:50I'll put myself definitely in that category.

00:52And so we as players, I myself haven't been good enough, and

00:56that's kind of why the results are where they've been at.

00:58And we definitely need to change that for the results that we want.

01:02Yeah, I will say that, yeah, I think there is a little bit of an exhale to it.

01:06I think the exhale for me kind of happened yesterday,

01:08just kind of finally moving on from it.

01:10When you finally get on the grass and go practice, it kind of, for me,

01:13always signifies moving on to the next week.

01:14And so I think for me, that's kind of when that happened.

01:17And look, yeah, there's obviously been a lot of frustration.

01:20I think the frustration happens just because of what we see in the locker room

01:24we have, and we feel like we should be better at this point.

01:27And you look at the three division games we've played, and

01:30you tally up all the losses of that, it comes out to seven points.

01:33So you're not far off, but obviously the record is where it's at right now.
