The conversation explores the player's accountability and his perspective on Taylor's transparent and vocal coaching style.
I mentioned the three catches.
You mentioned taking care of the ball.
Obviously, everyone saw the fumble.
What's that like when you have the fumble, you go to the sideline,
the penalty as well, Zach Taylor,
someone yelling at you, all those things.
Just, you know, what's that like?
Honestly, it's really different.
I've never been in this.
I've never been, like, yo, by the coach like that,
besides, like, missing a block or something.
But it was my first stupid penalty like that.
I didn't intend for it to be egregious,
but it was just one of those little quick walk-by things
that you didn't think that, you know,
nobody was looking at you, and it just, it looked bad,
and it was stupid, and, you know, it's just,
you just go to the sideline and tell coach, you know,
it'll never happen again, and whatever he has to say,
you gotta, you know, just, you know, respect
it, because you just messed up, so you gotta wear it on the chin,
and, you know, hope that they still
trust you, and can put you out there on the field,
and know that you won't do anything like that
again how unique is that for Zach I know after
the Jags game we heard him in the locker room I'm sure
you've been asked about it I know everyone it
seemed like after that game was asked about it
his speech because we could just hear it
because we were on the other side of the wall and that's
rare certainly in a loss to hear him that vocal
and then I've always seen him adamant or animated
excuse me with officials not necessarily
with players on the sideline is it have you seen a
shift in him at all from that honestly
um to me Zach like I just I look at Zach as that type of
coach that's you know he's very transparent he
um he'll tell you how he feels and and you know
it just it kind of surprised me here
and i'm surprised he hasn't done that with people in
the past but and maybe we haven't seen it okay i
don't i don't know i mean i haven't i just been
here i just got here so i don't really know too much
but i know that zach's a great coach and
and if he wants you to get better
and well obviously he's going to want you to get better
he's the coach but if you know if he sees something
that he doesn't like or he wants
that you want you to fix he'll voice it to you whether in practice game
cameras on it doesn't matter and that's what i love about it
