Paul CalvisiHOST
all right so 7-7 game at half and then the unlucky bounce to start the second half on the kickoff what did you like and where does the defense need to improve going into week three

Zaven CollinsGUEST
Yeah, you know, when they get the ball, I mean, I think we had like two short fields there, we gave up 10 points, right? In that aspect, if they get the ball in that kind of that field goal range already, you're kind of live, call it Murphy's Law or football law if you want, like they can have the three points there unless they're on the fringe and you knock them out.

Zaven CollinsGUEST
But once they're inside their field goal line, you want to kind of only hold them to three and then try and force them to make a long field goal.

Paul CalvisiHOST
As a former first rounder yourself, tell us about expectations when you're a young player.

Paul CalvisiHOST
Eh, what did you like, and where does the defense need to improve going into week three?

Zaven CollinsGUEST
Yeah, you know, when they get the ball, and I mean, I think we had like, what, two short fields there, we gave up 10 points, right? Um, in that aspect, if they get the ball in, in that kind of that field goal range already, you're, you kind of live with, call it Murphy's Law or football law if you want.

Zaven CollinsGUEST
Like they can have the three points there, unless they're on the fringe and you knock them out.

Zaven CollinsGUEST
But, um, once they're inside their field goal line, you want to kind of only hold them to three and then try and force them to make a long field goal, right? Um, so them having 10 points there, we did it on one, they got three points out of one.

Zaven CollinsGUEST
Um, so whatever it may be, you just can't have that as a defense, um, allow them to get in the, the paint on those situations, whether it's on the one or wherever it's at.

Paul CalvisiHOST
As a former first-rounder yourself, tell us about expectations when you're a young player.
