 It wants to lead off Well, I don't think Past success or failure is gonna is gonna impact this football game. It never has I don't think it ever will A lot of respect for them their team their organization their coaching staff You know they seem to always be very consistent And we have had some some good, you know battles against them since I've you know been in Tennessee You know and think the emphasis for us is just you know being able to put the the cold scheme behind us and You know get back to work, and I felt like we did that and You know coming over here will be a great opportunity to to try to get back to three and three Heading into the buy. I think that's where the emphasis has been You know trying to get back to to that point and then see what happens just trying to find ways just to You know again, it just is a different schedule and You know give those guys an opportunity to have some fun and let the players You know enjoy it and I think it nobody got hurt. That's the only good thing that came out of it Certainly was a very good one survived the ground Got body part in and the guys enjoyed it and showed them again this morning a part of Friday tape and It certainly got the biggest Ovation, yeah, I thought really really well appreciate our ops staff How smoothly everything ran our ability to to get in here early to have breakfast ready and Meetings and everything ready to go I thought that there was a little law at the beginning of practice, which is probably was expected and After we started stretching and moving around a little bit. I thought it was exactly what we needed And our players responded and I thought we had a good day. How much what is it? I mean, I don't you know, I don't think we were less prepared last time. We just didn't convert a two-point conversion And I don't even know how many guys were even on that team that are here now There can't be too many I'd say probably less than ten five. There you go. Thanks, Paul So, you know, I mean just to that point. There's so many new players But but I think that they Again, just the way that they we traveled the way that we prepared the work that we got in here today and And hopefully we'll be ready to go, you know tomorrow through our meetings And then Sunday at 2 30, I don't you know, I don't think coach is sleep much So if you get three or four hours on the plane, that's probably about what you normally get You know, I think everything was was pretty much planned out You know, I think that the you know, we'll try to get them through here today and go to bed at a normal time And and be on schedule. That's kind of what we did last time Well, the one thing that I've always said is we're never going to be able to eliminate distractions It's just how we handle them. So instead of You know, for example that they go to the city on their own provide buses. We provide, you know, security want them to go experience it but Make it somewhat organized, right have a four o'clock bus have a five o'clock bus Have people with them have our security staff with them Asked that they go in positions So some of those things like we provide some of those things because if you know, if you don't and they're gonna They're gonna go do and hang out and do things that people would normally do This is a Friday for us So they're gonna do the things that they would normally do on a Friday as they prepare for the football game Yeah, I mean we have to continue to work Tajé in there and he has to have Touches because when he gets it and catches it or we hand it to him You know, he's been able to do some really good things with it and You know, so we'll have to continue to Work both of those guys in and see how that's going But also know that Derek will continue to be a focal point of our offense But but Tajé is gonna have to have opportunities as well No, I mean, I'll probably have dinner. You know, I mean, I'll probably go have dinner somewhere and Take stretch and Jen and Frank out I had an individual period I don't know. What do you I mean, what are you asking me? Okay, well, I mean, I don't know what to tell you like I I Apologize but you know, I mean like I Didn't know that that was you know, I'm sorry Absolutely, so I think that that's probably one of the coolest things have coming over here Was just the amount of different NFL jerseys and that the people that choose to to wear the that their favorite players Jersey and being in the stands and seeing other teams jerseys the then then the opponent or ours I would say the same thing that I say to everybody that that we're gonna try to put a product out there that You know plays hard that cares about each other, you know and has a semblance of you know Coordination to him that that we're not sitting there and you know, we're not disjointed and again We we're not gonna win every game. We obviously strive to do that But you know, we always say that they'll cheer for you based on your effort And playing hard and playing for each other and celebrating as a team. Those are all things that we try to do And we'll take as many fans as we possibly can get but I do enjoy the Just seeing everybody in the love for football that that I've had since As long as I can remember And and I'm glad that we can share that With the fans over here the the instincts that he has his ability to adjust to the football his body control Whether it's man or zone His route craft things like that being able to help the younger players Our conversations about him, you know, he may not need as much work as younger players And so his practice, you know, he's gets exactly what he needs to be ready for the football game and You know when we've needed him, you know, he's come through for us No, I don't because I'm not playing on it But I do think that the most important thing for us is the the health and safety of our players And their family, you know when we're always talking about that. So that'll never That'll always be at the forefront of my mind obviously think that that all the surfaces that we we play on our The injury rate in a professional football at some point in time is going to be a hundred percent you play this game long enough You're guaranteed to to get injured just from my own personal experience if you if you play this game that's violent That you're gonna get hurt sometime. You can't go into a game You can't go into thinking or worrying about, you know, having an injury I mean you can count that one. I guess I you know, I think the one in Houston No, it was in the Houston Super Bowl. I'm sorry. It was like 2003. I think it was against the Panthers in Houston, but My son Tyler who's 23 now was like three years old or whatever he was I think he was three and he got to be on the podium with me and Tom and it was it was a cool deal So just to be able to experience that with him and he was in sports illustrated Back when I could hold him Who's that? To your tart he'll be questionable. We've we listed the guys that were out that didn't make the trip Berks Molden and Gifford and we'll see here where we're tart ends up He'll be questionable as we Simmons I would anticipate no designation list is questionable all Those no designation Whenever you tell us we're supposed to play the Titans will be there and I promise you we'll figure out a way to compete and And be there on time. I'm gonna assume that that's a hundred yards long That the end zones are both 10 yards deep and it's 53 and a third wide and the hash marks are you know six yards and 1 6th, so I don't I don't know what to tell you. No, I won't go over there until Sunday It'll be huge. You know, we had a disappointing day against the run last week It's a humbling league, right? We sit there and look about well It's been however many games that you allowed a hundred. You know, I mean, this is a humbling league and If you sleep on it any player in this league Can make plays if you're not doing what you're supposed to be doing So this week is is a great challenge. Is there fourth in the league in the rushing attempts fourth in yards? And and Lamar plays a huge part of that and again his his ability to extend plays whether they're design runs or he sees a dirty pocket and he wants to get out of there, but you know, I just Just see a comfort in his ability in the pocket this year. It's just a calming presence He kind of stands back there, you know progresses and and delivers the football. So it'll be a huge challenge Well, anything that we can do to share This game with with people that that want to Embrace it. I'm all for and the ability to to share this game and grow this game I've played in Mexico City coached in Mexico City. I've played in Dublin of coached in London So I've been a part of those as a player and you know, I Enjoy it and I hope our players do too Thanks Practical is great, you know guys came out, you know, once we got moving a little bit I felt like guys had great energy. We moved around well Executed well. So, you know, I was happy with with how practice went. I don't think the body clock's quite settled in yet You know still working on that, but you know, it's been been a good start for us Yeah, it's fun, you know, it's fun. You know, you always hear the coaches, you know talking, right? they're always talking nonsense especially the guys who played before and You know to see them try to go out there and actually back it up a little bit was a lot of fun You have a guy like Luke obviously played a long time and it made a huge catch there in the end zone You saw how we all reacted, right? It was a pretty exciting moment and definitely brings a lot of juice to practice Big Ben is the best sort of time. Um, I Wish I'd actually seen Big Ben. I don't think I've actually seen it in all my trips over here. I Really need to get out and go check it out, right? But I got to come back when I when I'm not getting ready for a game I'd love to see a little bit more London has to offer my wife and kids are Exploring and they're sending me pictures from Big Ben and then all the hot spots, you know downtown But you know here to to win a game and trying to get, you know mentally and physically prepared to do that Enjoy it, right? Enjoy it do what you have to do to prepare yourself mentally and physically to Win the game, but if you have some time and I want to go check some things out And then that fits with what you're doing and getting ready to win then you know go enjoy it There's there's a lot of a lot of fun things to see. I always enjoy experiencing different cultures, right? You know being out of the country, you know, whether it's here or some other place, you know The more culture you can see the more different ways of life that you can can see you learn a lot and It's always fun to fun to see so you know try to tell the guys first and foremost Get ready to win the game do what you have to do to get ready to win the game But I also enjoy the experience because it's a great experience. There's a lot of buzz There's a lot of energy around the game and I'll soak that up Yeah, you just kind of have to deal with it, right? I don't think there's a Any magic magic trick or anything that you can do to to snap into a different time zone, especially this big of a gap But you know came across last night on the flight try to get as much sleep as we could on the flight hit the ground running today Stay awake throughout the day and just try to you know reset the clock tonight by getting a good night's rest You know heading into Saturday and then the game so It's not an easy process But I do think if you do those things then you give yourself a chance to To feel good going into Sunday. I don't know. I don't know I feel like you know we've I've done this trip this same way, you know several times now, so It's the only way I know and and I think Just based on how we responded today the energy we had the practice that we had going out of practice Executing the way we did that we're gonna be in a good position to go play good football and win on Sunday Yeah, I love I love get Titans fans all over the world And it's always fun when I travel and then see somebody and some Titans gear whether you know it's here other places in Europe Been in Mexico and seen Titans Titans gear So anytime I see Titans gear across the globe, it's fun. And I think it's great for the game To to have a team and support even though you may not be in the same location or same country You know having that support from around the globe feels great as a as a player We love that and I look forward to seeing more Titans fans in Germany. Do what? Yeah, yeah, we did, you know got a got a mom and a son here in London and so Excited to to be able to get them tickets to the game Do what? Oh, it's really hard. Honestly, it's really really hard. Got a bunch of great picks and and if you call them entries I don't know for a giveaway, but yeah, it's really hard, you know scrolling through You know seeing all the different people the Titan supporters That answered in is really a lot of fun all the people that are here from the states for the game within a lot of you know native British people that are supporting the Titans as well. So Really hard, but you know felt like we made a made a good choice and excited to bring them to the game Yeah, no question. They can really open up things for each other Obviously very talented players each of them in their own right, you know Derrick Come on Paul You know both both guys can bring something to the table right Derrick's physical is tough He brings that tough running style and when the running game is is Doing well then it opens up things in the back end for receivers and vice versa. So, you know having both guys It can make plays on opposite ends is gonna be huge for us, you know, especially this week Yeah, we got to get our playmakers involved, you know Not only Derrick and D hop but the other guys you mentioned as well we have a lot of guys that are talented with the balls and with the ball in their hand and Can make big plays for us So the more we can can get more than one person involved and spread the ball around then it's gonna create problems for the defense It all kind of works together. I got to have some protection You know where it starts, you know have some protection our receivers have to to get to their spots and win quickly Then as a quarterback got to get the ball out, you know, so those those three things kind of work together independently then You know if one of them's off, you know, the other two could be right on but the one of them's off then You know, it could have a could have a negative play So all three of those things kind of have to work together in order to be able to be efficient in the past game and get the ball Yeah, I love coming over here. It's a it's a whirlwind for us, right? You know, especially come on over late in the week, but it's a lot of fun. There's an energy around the game There's a buzz, you know in the stadium It's a great atmosphere. It's different. It's different atmosphere than we're used to experiencing back home You know with a true home and a true away stadium and fan base but the energy throughout the The game you can feel it, you know the celebration of good plays, you know both sides of the ball You know that people are gonna celebrate and enjoy good football and good plays on both sides So it's a fun atmosphere and I really look forward to it's playing it. That's a huge honor. It's a huge honor, you know It's not something that I ever really thought about, you know as a kid You know, I wanted to there's always a goal to play in the NFL But didn't really think about that aspect of it and then when I first started seeing people and especially kids wearing my jersey It really just hits home and makes you thankful for the opportunity to go out there and thankful for people supporting you and cheering you on Well, you know back home, it's true home in a way, right? So situationally the crowd is gonna vary in Decibels and how loud they are, you know depending on the situation. It's not quite the same, you know playing here But that that energy is still there that buzz is still there So it's a little bit different like I said, but it's still a lot of fun. Yeah, I mean more Titans fans It's never gonna be a bad thing, right? So hopefully we can make a lot of plays and and You know win the game and anybody who's on the fence can jump on board and become Titans man Yeah, Nick's been awesome and he Came in and in training camp got a locker right next to me So I spent a lot of time to talk with Nick a lot obviously, you know been playing the game a long time Played at a high level and done really well throughout his whole career So thankful to have a guy with his capabilities and you know, you mentioned long kicks, right 40 plus yard kicks Being able to make those when when things aren't maybe perfect on offense And you do have to to try them out there feeling really confident that he's gonna bang it through and get your three points You know gives you a lot of confidence that That if you're not perfect on offense that he's gonna make up for it. I don't remember that I mean, there's always an excitement in a buzz right going to game your adrenaline is going So I don't change up my my routine drastically. I don't remember changing my channel plan to this this trip as well Just that that energy and that excitement to go play the game for me is there You know, even if your body clocks a little off, right? So I'm excited to to get out there and go play no matter what time it is
