00:14good quarterback and just making sure we're at the right place at the right

00:21thing going against a pretty accurate QB.

00:24I mean, I think the whole year has been our second half adjustments.

00:28What do they mean, you know, coming out of the half and just being able to attack

00:41of course, NFL-type guys. And I feel like just watching and just how they move

00:55you understand that's really what it takes. And plus more, you think, plus some,

00:59like to get where you want to be in this football.
