01:27utilize more moving forward oh you're saying like his leg yeah yeah like his ability to you know whether

03:04defensive side you know uh knowing knowing things and playing safety you know linebacker you know
03:12helping out with us and i feel like that's that's that's uh that takes another step in that leadership
03:18role as a you know head coach pop when you look at the offense and josh mcdaniels how much similarity
03:25is there from when billy o'brien was there because you know they obviously coached together for a long
03:30time in new england with brady is is there some similarities that carry over from when billy o was
03:36offense coordinated might make things a little bit easier especially for you understanding the uh the
03:42offense yeah uh that's how i knew you know some things but you know uh definitely change you know
03:51some things up just you know it's a it's a faster game i think but you know some people could think
03:57you know something else you know uh so and it's a different different schemes now so it's it's pretty
04:04you know some things were are the same but something you know different pop variable called week one a game
04:11of missed opportunities speaking for yourself what were those opportunities that were missed and how do you
04:16fix it um you know you know week one is for like you know the games what the team with the you know
04:23most of the fakes will lose you know um i feel like you know we just had the most mistakes uh you see
04:30around all games you know with the week one it's it's it's it's come up to the team with you know the
04:37less mistakes and they they had the less mistakes and you know uh i feel like that that was a good thing
04:43for us you know because we could have won the game and had so many mistakes and could have walked over
04:48those mistakes and um i feel like as we lost this game we could go to those mistakes and come change
