sorry we're good all right KJ we just heard from Gus he said it's a little bit more difficult with you in a scrim because you're not live and a lot of things that you do well is kind of you know making plays with you know you're rolling out everything and you can't be touched so how do you kind of how did you evaluate today's scrimmage for you uh we did some really good things on offense and we did like coach said I mean we got some things that we need to clean up for as penalty wise not hurting oursel uh have explosive play and then it's coming back because of a penalty so just making sure that we hone in on the little details that's going to make us effective and explosive uh moving forward so just make sure that we clean up those details and those mistakes KJ what have you seen from the the rest of the quarterbacks in your room de the fresh oh those guys I mean they like I said in our quarterback room I mean we all love each other it's iron sharpen iron I mean we all grow and learn together uh so me just being a veteran guy just making sure that I spread some knowledge that I know from the game and just me having that experience and making sure I'm feing pouring to

and making sure those guys are coming along KJ you've heard stuff here um either from coach or from Rookie about trying to get more hard edged play uh this year before and how this year may have been more physical at this point you know with the scrimish practice in the past is that something that you were looking to help your offense achieve is that something that's yeah you know with me coming in the building that's what needs to happen happened how does that make that you feel that that's achieved that that's been achieved to get that hard Edge uh that hard Edge I mean it's contagious I mean once uh you like me coming in just me being able to just come in and just work uh just earn the trust and respect from our teammates and then just also having that Competitive Edge I mean it's

young guys on the team who made play toess you a lot of guys a lot of the young guys I mean I can't just sing anyone out cuz of all of them all of them stepped up in a very big way today and I mean
