You know, I got no no doubt in my
mind that that's what Dorsey will do.
He'll he'll find whatever is best suitable
for us and try to apply it to our game plan.
But it's ultimately when we're in the field,
we gotta go out there and execute.
I mean, actually we'd love to love to
get everybody the ball I think of today.
You know, Dawson's doing what
he's asked to do, you know,
whether it's blocking an end or getting
out for check downs or running routes.
And I got no, no doubt that
those will eventually pop.
You know, there's there's gonna be times
where he's asked to do a lot for us.
There's gonna be times where he's
not not asked to do a lot for us.
So that goes with everybody else
on the football field as well.
And I know he's staying patient and
he's just ready to to do his job,
whatever that is.
But yeah, I'd love to love to find
ways to get him the ball and get him,
you know,
more involved because he is such
a weapon and asset for this team.
Your level apart, is that the thing?
Yeah, it was a. It was a.
You know, we were, I think everybody
here was pretty tired, you know,
just the energy that that one took.
But, you know,
we were back in the building on Monday,
obviously our off day yesterday,
just trying to catch up on rest and
guys getting in the training room,
whether it's in the messages,
are going through rehab, hot tub,
cold tub, sauna, steam room,
all that stuff that, you know,
professional football players need
to do to get ready to go on Sunday.
And you know, we got a lot of real,
real professional football players
in here that understand what's asked,
asked for them or asked of them,
I should say.
And you know,
they're just trying to do their job
and and feel the best that they can
feel for Sunday and you know, to.
Mr Grind each and every week and
that's why it's leaking so hard.
You know,
you gotta play through some pain sometimes.
And we had a lot of guys that are doing that.
So I got a lot of respect for our guys,
for, you know,
handling the business the right way.
They're stacking the line of scrimmage.
See that man coverage touchdowns that way.
Do you see it in the crowd?
Yeah, whatever's asked,
you know, of us on offense is
what we're trying to do now.
We gotta be better in some
critical areas of that game and
play better situational football.
And there's some things that we
missed that we'd like to have back.
But you know,
it's on the Baltimore and we'll be
able to use whatever we learned on Sunday,
you know, for this upcoming week,
week and in weeks to come.
You know, I never, never like losing games.
Especially the way we lost him.
But there's still a lot of good
that we can take out of that
game and a lot of learning
opportunities that we can take out.
So guys got in there,
looked at the film,
and you know,
we've turned our attention
and focus towards Baltimore.
Getting the running game going
is something that talked about.
How important do you think that
that is you guys success on
offense and how do you think they
can spark the running game here?
Yeah, I say just just trusting it,
trusting, obviously the guys
have the ball in their hands,
trusting our, our 5-6 guys up front,
tight ends included.
You know, just sticking with it,
you know, it's not going to be perfect
every single time we call run play and
we're not asking for it to be perfect.
We're just, you know, we're asking for.
You know it to be ID the right way
and guys giving Max effort and you
know making sure that I'm putting us
in the right calls and situations
to go out there and run them.
So that's that's really all it takes.
You're pretty sore.
Do you have any lingering effects of that?
No, we're, we're ready to go
and I know there's some, I said.
There's guys battling some soreness and
some some minor things that, you know,
they're, they're written through.
Like I said, we got a lot of professional
guys on this team that are handling
the right way and staying in late
and getting extra work in the in the
training center and you know, hot tub,
cold tub and all that, like I said.
So you know, we gotta find ways to to
get back on the field stand with field.
At the end of the game.
Frustration.
Are you sharing some of that?
No, I don't think it was
that frustration at all.
You show me someone that's OK with losing,
I'll show you a loser, you know,
he's he's passionate about
his job and and what he does.
We all feel the same way.
We just want to win football
games and that's it.
Every game is different situation.
Obviously we gotta find ways
to to win them, but you know,
we're working through that and
we don't see that as a problem at
all. Josh, your first day was involved.
What do you remember about that first game,
Baltimore having had back there now?
Well, it's looking like it's gonna
be similar weather to that game,
and it was torrential
downpour and that first one.
And actually going there at halftime,
I remember the how the bowl felt.
It was kind of a weird tacky ball.
And again, it was just.
Torrential downpour. So, you know,
just gotta make sure that we're ready for
that and the crowd's gonna be pretty loud.
Obviously again with with their
coaching staff and and coach our ball,
he seems like he's got those
guys to ready to go every single,
every single year, every single week,
but every of every single year,
it's no different with this team.
They're playing hungry right now and they
got some, some ball Hawks on defense.
So we got to find ways to,
you know,
get our film makers the ball on making plays.
Yeah, again. I can say this for the money.
He's he's an extremely hard worker,
you know, as am I and.
You know, guys respect him and love
how he plays the game of football
and he has a lot of fun doing it.
I have a lot of fun doing it.
I mean, he's, he's playing as good as
anybody in the league right now and,
you know, making sure that, you know,
points are priority this week,
the ball's priority this week and you know,
we gotta go find
a way to win the game.
Are there questions about your accuracy?
More than answered them now,
but that was the kind of question
about what have you seen from him,
quarterback to quarterback.
He just does his job.
I'm, I don't really evaluate,
you know, quarterbacks too much.
Just trying to focus on on what I can do but.
I mean again, he's he's won an
MVP and he's playing that NDP
level right now and you know,
given all the the drama and the
details that that are going on
with all that contract situation
that you know he's got going on,
he's just like, you know,
I'm going to bet on myself and.
I'm pretty sure it's gonna pay off.
You talk about.
Yeah, I think obviously being better
in situational football and again,
every game presents its own
opportunities and obstacles that we
gotta find a way to fight through.
And you know, this last one being
being in critical situations,
you know, right before the half,
making sure that, you know,
I get the snap cleanly and find
a way to to snap those, you know,
spike the ball, allow ourselves to.
To kick a field goal there,
or if it's a mindset or decision that we
can change throughout the game and make
sure that we're all on the same page.
But again, you're gonna have to have
games like that where you do have
mishaps in order to clean them up.
You know, we're just happy that
it happened in week three and not,
you know, week 17.
When you go through such a grueling game
like that, mentally, physically, how do you
put the script to the next week?
You gotta get ready for another.
That's why we played the game.
So we get paid to do what we do and
trust in the leadership on this team.
And the guys in the locker room to go out
there and look at business, I think guys.
