feels great it's exciting guys are just ready to get after it preseason all that's fun but it's time for the real deal and it's what we've been working towards so it's it's great that it's finally here it's great that it's football season it's going to be back how long how long have you studied them and maybe what what do you see when you watch take for their defense no very impressed you know they look really good on all levels um you know Line's ready for a big front up front with what they got going on there um good rushes on the outside good strong penetrating rushers inside um and then you know they performed as well as they did especially towards the end of last year for a reason uh you know you see the turnovers you see the ball disruption the um you know lack of rush yards that they're they're giv up so it's a great challenge for us to get out there and kind of see what we can get done in this yeah it's that mindset every day it's it's even in practice we say we we win the day uh you know in practice during the week or win the game in practice during the week so it's coming out and starting fast on these days and having that same um standard for us in everything that we're doing not just for the game so that we know that when it's time to go we can't ease ourselves into it we got to be you know all systems go right away so we got to make sure that we go out there and you know have the openers down pat and know we're going to go out there and be running with those first set of plays and uh just attack them and be physical and be fast so I know that our guys can to be right for it and just looking forward to getting that fast start yeah know he's he's a great player and he was a great leader for us and did a lot of great things for his team and I'm excited to see him and uh yeah he's we got to make sure we know where he's at on the field he's he's going to be the general out there for that secondary and make sure that he's got his guys in the right spots and he knows you know just defense and coverage and spacing really well and he's able to make plays on the ball when he sees fit um so yeah just got to make sure that I'm smart the ball where where he's at and just kind of trust in what I'm seeing in that respect what's the belief that the group you have pretty good and can go show something no we worried about what's going on in this building and like you said we know that this group is good enough to go out and beat anyone in this league so we're going to let people talk about whatever that they want to but you know we're going to talk to ourselves and ourselves only let well what's and all of that I don't know if that had a huge factor in it but uh no I didn't have any or I didn't anticipate changing my numbers like when I chose it for for the pros it was going to stay that way and I love number eight
