Young answered questions about his first start and how he’s growing from his mistakes before Monday Night Football.
The price I'm sorry after watching the Film Um was it easier to see some of the good Things you did on Sunday and kind of Having some time up away from it yeah um You know we've we've obviously we've Turned the page and you know it's been Just about how we can be constructed From it um so yeah there's there's good Stuff on film that we have to continue To do Um and then there's stuff that obviously Um you know we have to learn from I had To learn from and we're in the process Of getting it cleaned up so um you know I think it's again you now you know we You know we're playing New Orleans so Obviously all our attention you know we Need all of our attention to be able to Do what we want to do and you know it Takes us being locked and engaged on That so you know you got to push what Happened on on Sunday aside and it's Been all about about growing and getting Ready for Monday Take against You know just just higher execution you Know just want to execute a higher level Um you know uh just you know make sure We're you know we're still working a Good operation and you know making sure That again we're executing we're Finishing um especially with drives Again I think it was there's good stuff
On film as well just as a team and as a Unit and you know it didn't you know There's for for one reason or another Again we didn't you know I don't think We executed when it you know when it was Important we didn't do all the things we Wanted to that we needed to do to win The game so I think just you know Tying everything together and executing Is definitely going to be a you know Something that is area focused for me And for the entire team Yeah you know that's something that Again it's my first it's my first Opportunity to do that you know we have A plan as far as what we're going to do Um you know just schedule wise and what We're going to do with with Team stuff But you know I'm going to try to do all I can to take advantage of it against an Extra day so um you know adding to kind Of that routine I have from week to week You know trying to find a healthy mix of Adding and you know taking advantage of An extra day and trying to find you know Trying to look for other things but not Just you know not just doing things that Are counterproductive and going on you Know while goose chase is just down Rabbit holes that aren't you know Relevant you know I think you have to Manage you know what you know what You're going to pay attention to what You're going to go into the game with
What you're going to expect and react to And things like that and then also have A good manage of making sure that you're Not trying to account for every little Thing because again they're a great Defense they have you know great players And great coaches that there's going to Be stuff we have to react to and we're Not going to be able to account for Everything so I think you know still Trying to take advantage of the extra Day but still not not go too too far Down down a rabbit hole and keep that Healthy balance Frank was just in here he talked about How on those interceptions that Bates Really wasn't supposed to be there in Those spots that he kind of broke off From where you know he's Designed to go How do you did they talk about how to Take advantage of that Moving forward if players do that yeah Um yeah I mean you know on there are Some stuff that you know if you look at Again coverage rule is not supposed to Be there but at the end of the day again It's my job to make sure that you know Those you know people are aware they're Supposed to be or you know obviously It's not like obviously it was for a Reason but you know just making sure That Um you know that you know you cross all
Your t's and you know I still want me to Make sure I see that stuff but Um you know that's definitely something That we've talked about and we have and You know our working towards is making Sure that again that we have the ability And capability to take advantage of that And I think it was a good experience to See it Um you know for me I'm again now looking Back at it's a learning experience and Then we're going to have stuff obviously To build on that and you know take Advantage of things like that and things That happen like that in the future so Again it's all me to decipher it and Again it doesn't by any you know stretch That means excuse what happened they're A great place and again it's all me to Not make you know make the decisions That I made but definitely moving Forwards learning experience and you Know we have stuff and move forward and Make sure that we can take advantage of It Yeah when you don't have those expect Plays a part of your offense yeah um you Know I think again it just boils down to Execution Um and you know of course that starts With me making sure that you know I'm I'm executing I'm doing my job and then Making sure we're on the same page to Execute and you know again it didn't
Didn't happen you know we had Opportunities Um you know we didn't take advantage of Them being capitalized and you know of Course it's it's you know you want to You know we want to be explosive you Know you always want to have explosive Plays and Um you know have stuff that that you Know you want chunk plays but you know We it wasn't what we were able to do and Again it's in the past now so you know There are opportunities Um there are things that we can take Advantage of now we have to figure out How we you know put ourselves back in a Situation where we have those Opportunities and then work throughout The week so that we can execute um you Know when that time comes so that's Really the process that we're in now You're a pretty cool guy I mean that's What everybody says or even killed Collected I would assume that there's Some sense of anxiousness going into Your first regular season game now that That's a to the side and that's over is There a sense of maybe relief that you Can go ahead and get into the flow of Maybe a regular season yeah I think it's Really cool just to have it you know now It's kind of just becoming a routine and A week to week thing and Um you know you have such a long build
Up for your first game like you know First real game is something that you Know the moment you declare again it's Not in the Forefront of your mind but It's like it's another one of those you Know milestones and boxes to check and It's you know you start it's the first Thing that happens for for months and Again it's not always what you're Thinking about but it's always there and Now you know we're now it's back to a Normal stable weeks week mode of um you Know now it's just you know you focus on This week Um and then again it's gonna it's a Quick reset you know now I have the Amount of days I have to focus on New Orleans and it's not a huge Um you know it's not months it's not so I think that's I think you know there's It's definitely good to just be in that Rhythm Um but again you still have to have that Hyper Focus um you know we play a great Opponent on on Monday so we have to make Sure that you know we're locked in and We're taking advantage of of the time That we have but I think it is good just To be able to have that routine and you Know now that you know you find it it's You know it'll be stable instead you Know kind of be the same process for the Most part Lord willing going forward First Monday night game is that
Something you kind of like dreamed about Growing up is that does that get you Excited um yeah I think it's a great Opportunity of course um you know it's Definitely a you know it's it's a great Opportunity a blessing to have that that Type of platform for us as a team um you Know I think you know it's great and It's really cool but the same day you Know it's still we're still playing on The same field we would have if it was On Sunday you know we're still gonna Have to execute against a great team I'm In New Orleans um so you know it's Really cool it's a great opportunity but At the same time you know it's it's Still you know it's still football you Know it's still going to be the same Plan and same thing we would have done If it was Sunday Um so you know it's really cool probably In a retrospect when we move past it It'll be kind of a cool tidbit to look Back at but you know right now it's not Really something that's I don't think on The Forefront of anyone's mind it's more Making sure that we do what we need to Do throughout these days to be in a Position where we we want to be in and You know do what we have to do on Monday Um and you know at the end of the day Again it's still you know regardless of The day you know we have a big challenge Ahead of us so um you know I think we're
Really all the focus is just making sure We're ready for that everyone When you're in the Huddle but how Important is it to get Adam you know Feeling and he's brought in here to be You know How important is it to get him more Involved in the passing game yeah well I Mean as far as you know as far as the X's and O's you know we have we have Great coaches um that you know that Obviously that account for that and do a Great job of that um so you know I think You know Adam obviously brings brings a Ton he's he's great um you know he's Great on the field great in the locker Room great teammate great guy Um so you know obviously Um you know we you know we want him to To do well just like we want all of our All of our guys um and you know I for me You know it's just I'm listening to Coaches going through my reads doing all I can to you know to go you know really Take the ball where he needs to go and Again it's I know the coaches are going To do a great job of Um getting him and whoever else it needs To be I'm open so as far as x's and Those go you know that's kind of above Of my above my level Playing in the NFL Adjusting that Back within the division how much of
