Intro Cher can you take us through uh the rushing touchdown there do you feel a little bit like javante as you lowered your shoulder yeah uh everybody kept calling me Lamar Jackson on the sideline uh I got a long way to go for that but uh yeah I just saw an open Lane and just decided to take it and try and get in the end zone it worked out QB competition so yeah Jared uh you've been leading this quarterback competition most of the off season early part of training camp I mean how do you feel it's going now a lot of people think that you know might be the guy right now yeah look I I've can control what I can control and that's uh how how well prepared I am every day um you know my effort and attitude every day and uh you know going out there and executing I mean that's that's all I can do and um yeah I mean I it like I I've always said competition's super healthy I think it's really good um I'm not going to get caught up in what's what or what it is or what it isn't um I'm focusing on every single day what I can do to uh to be the guy and um you know that sort of thing so jar moving Different atmosphere away from the QB competition specifically what can you sense differently this year than last year about this team and you know the atmosphere and everything else environment for sure I I think the main thing um you know Sean is obviously you know he came here last year and he you know he's trying to to pour the foundation I think that was a big part of last year and I think you know finally you have a lot of guys buying into you know what he's teaching what he's trying to do um on a daily basis and um definitely feel so much different about this team um you know at this point and U like like I've said multiple times I mean we're really really close and this is a really close team and um I was talking to Dave Logan on the on the uh radio and people don't see it but like we just went crazy for Tim Patrick in the locker room after the game because he finally you know he scored his first touchdown you know back from the injuries and stuff over the last two years and uh that doesn't happen everywhere so um yeah it's it's a special group of guys for sure Jared can On the interception you take us through the interception were you hit on that then did the ball hit off the helmet seemed like a weird Play No I just it just got tipped up in the air just unfortunate so you you just mentioned the celebration for Tim in the locker room as one of the guys who was around last year when he wasn't what has it been like to watch him be a full participant in training camp and now get to kind of have a game like this yeah it's been it's been great uh I can't speak highly enough about Tim as a person and as a player I mean he's he's a he's a veteran he works his he works his tail off um you know the last two years obviously have been tough for him but to see him come back and be able to do the things he you know he's done and um you know he had a great game tonight you know was was open pretty much the entire time he was out there and uh yeah just couldn't be more excited for him for sure jerck On why the team is so close going back to why you guys are so close do you have any specific examples of of why you think you're closer perhaps this year at this time than last year uh I mean I I think it's Unique um at least from my perspective uh you know I feel like it hasn't been like this everywhere I've been but you know one thing I always talk about is you know I feel like on teams I've been on it's you know you kind of hang out with the offensive guys or you know the defensive guys kind of hang out with the defensive guys but I mean you'll see I mean I I I hang out with offensive guys defensive guys Specialists you know I mean everybody and that just doesn't really happen a lot um if you go into our cafeteria at the facility I mean you see guys you know sitting with other guy it's just it's it's a cool you know community that that Sean's really built um and that that wasn't happening last year not no I mean I I think it was definitely part of it um and again with a lot of guys coming back this year you just naturally get closer and um yeah I mean one thing we did last year uh right after the season was over the next weekend there was I don't know probably 16 or 17 of us that took a trip to Aspen for like a long weekend just hanging out um dinners you know just just being guys hanging out and you know again it doesn't that doesn't happen everywhere jar Sean On penalties mentioned multiple times the penalties and that that has to get cleaned up when you look at it kind of what do you see out there that needs to be fixed how do you get that kind of fixed for next week yeah I mean obviously we got to you know take a look at the film and see exactly what it is but uh yeah I mean in the fil the the penalties are tough because whenever you're moving the ball you know moving it well and then you you have a penalty that brings you back like it's just it's hard to overcome that I mean this League's too good the players on the opposite sideline are too good the coaches are too good so um you know whenever it's you know second and 15 or first and 20 it's always hard to to bounce back from that um so yeah we we'll definitely look at it and see what we can do to get better
