00:00Nick is in Plymouth today with Burt Breer.
00:02Hey, Nick.
00:03Hey, guys.
00:04Earlier you were talking about the whole May trying to either know when to run
00:09or know when to throw.
00:10How do you guys think the development of him just trying to throw it away
00:13when he knows neither is available?
00:15It seems like he's trying to make a play way too often
00:17and just getting back to the line of scrimmage
00:19and constantly sliding and possibly putting himself in danger.
00:23I think his sliding's gotten pretty good.
00:25But he's saying he needs to be more cautious about when he should try to make a play
00:31and when he should quit the play.
00:33I thought there was one.
00:34Oh, God.
00:35It's the fumble against the Steelers, right?
00:37Isn't that it?
00:38Well, okay, so he did that a week ago.
00:40Same situation here.
00:41He took the sack this past week.
00:43Just huddle it up.
00:44Kick it away.
00:45Let's go.
00:46Live the play another day.
00:47He's trying to be perfect.
00:50Part of it as a quarterback, like, you never want the ball to hit the ground.
00:53Right.
00:53You don't want to just throw the ball away, just throw the ball away
00:55because I can't see.
00:56You know, because it doesn't look right.
00:58I'm just going to throw it away.
00:59Yeah.
00:59No.
01:00I'm going to push it.
01:03He's playing well.
01:04Yeah, he's playing really well.
01:05It's coming.
01:06It's coming.
01:07Which is, I think, pretty remarkable too,
01:09considering, like, this is his fourth offensive system in four years.
01:13This is his fourth play caller in four years.
01:15Like, there's a lot that you have to untangle
01:17when a quarterback's going through that.
01:19And, I mean, the last time he was a starting quarterback in consecutive years
01:23with the same play caller was in high school.
01:26Yeah, and that's when he told me that's the last time he called a play in the huddle.
01:29Yeah.
01:30This time, last summer, in a production meeting, he said,
01:32last time I called a play in the huddle, I was 17.
01:35Right.
01:35Just try to get used to the huddle right now.
01:37Yeah.
01:37Like, what?
01:38Yeah, and that's sort of where a lot of these guys are coming from.
01:41It's their entry point.
01:42It's what we've talked about at receiver,
01:44where you kind of have to meet these guys where they're at to some degree.
01:47And, yeah, I mean, I think you have to be really impressed
01:50with, like, just the command he has considering all of that.
