How do, how do you guys show that they are the toughest guys on the team when they can't be touched?
Billy FesslerGUEST
So if we wanna show we're the toughest guys on the team, you know, we can do that by showing we're the hardest working guys on the team.
Billy FesslerGUEST
Uh, we can make sure that we don't ever get too high or too low, and we, you know, play with passion and emotion, um, without letting that emotion and passion play with us and, and affect us.
Billy FesslerGUEST
And, you know, we talk a lot in the quarterback room about moving on to the next most important thing.

And I come to college and it's, "Well, everybody's fast, everybody's big, so you gotta find new ways to get open, and just really gotta force yourself to, uh, higher IQ."
Billy FesslerGUEST
Um, so I've seen that growth from Lincoln and, and that's, that's really exciting.
Billy FesslerGUEST
Um, as for Julian, um, you know, last year going into the year, he, he was competing for a job and, you know, ended up d- not winning the job.
Billy FesslerGUEST
And, you know, he could have turned it down and been bummed out and, you know, um, not attacked it the right way.
Billy FesslerGUEST

Billy FesslerGUEST

Billy FesslerGUEST
And, um, you know, this winter is so big for all three of them, just really to set the standard and, and to understand the intangibles that playing quarterback is all about, right? 'Cause there's so much more than just picking up a football and throwing it when it comes to su-s-succeeding on Saturdays.

Wow
Billy FesslerGUEST
Um, you know, and, and, you know, the one thing that's pretty cool is those guys are very competitive, and they push each other hard, and they're, you know, they're ultimately really good for each other because they both make each other uncomfortable because, you know, they're both very good players.
Billy FesslerGUEST
Um, you know, and, and Tavion's right there with them, um, included in that mix.
Billy FesslerGUEST
And, and above all of that, they're still friends, you know? I think what's pretty cool right now is just, you know, you walk into that quarterback room and you got a bunch of really, really good guys, um, that all get along well and, and, you know, are willing to help each other out and give each other pointers and tips if they see something.
Billy FesslerGUEST
And, um, you know, it's, it's a, it's an enjoyable environment to be around every day, but, but ultimately those guys are competing, you know? Um, they're going out there and they're trying to win the job, and I think y- they realize that every moment is important and, and, every period's important and they're going out there trying to get it done.

um so if i have you know a play where you know maybe i made the wrong read or screwed something up you know i've got you know about a half a second right to kind of be bummed out about it right but i've got to learn from and i've got to move on to the next most important thing because so many guys let that first play affect the next play um so we're really working to to continue to grow from that um but as far as you know showing that we're tough i i even tell our guys that hey if i'm I don't know, Austin Sarabelle, and I'm watching film, and I see in the back of that film that Julian is up or Tavian is up, but Lincoln and the opposite of Julian and Tavian are standing in the back doing a mental rep.
