Spencer Rattler talks his performance | Saints-Titans Postgame | 2024 NFL Preseason Week 3

you feel like you handled that kind of notal yeah no doubt I mean uh just trying to keep your Rhythm throughout the game uh you know going quarter by quarter you know I felt like as a group we did really good on you know I think we scored on every Drive um couple touchdowns and and and some uh you know field goals so as a group we converted on third down much better and uh finished in the red zone and had more explosive plays you know ran the ball well threw the ball down the field and um you know it was thought it was a good efficient game can you walk us through that touchdown to BR that zone they were yeah they they zoned it out you know the ball wasn't supposed to go there but um he made it he he ran a great route I trusted him you know put it where where I needed to and he made a heck of a play so you know that's that's how you know we're taught play the play but when you got to go above X's and O's you got to you know improvise sometimes Spencer you think you did enough to be the number two guy here you know I I just put my best foot forward you know I wanted to come out here and play well play clean protect the ball and and and Lead our lead our team to to scores um you know I'm controlling what I can you know that's not up to me to decide but you know just putting my best foot forward how do you think you've grown through the preseason games and TR yeah I think tremendously I mean um you know obviously still a rookie still learning um you know definitely want a few plays back from today just on a couple underthrown balls but um you know I feel like I've taken steps where I need to and obviously not anywhere near where I want to be so continuing to strive for Perfection every day D talking to you after that touchdown pass what was he telling you following the drive oh he's just you know he's always he's our biggest fan out there which is why I love him you know great dude you know I was in he was in my ear all game you know telling me what he saw you know what type of situations we're in so to have a a guy like that in the room you know you know is great so he's awesome how much different is it coming off the bench as opposed to starting I mean you kind of just got to do what you got to do um it's really not a big deal to me just whenever you step on the field give your best foot you know put put your best foot forward and and go make plays so um you know I love to love to be on the field as much as I can but um you know when we're out there we got to execute have you figured anything out about like how to stay sharp or ready or you know I'm assuming like the preparation's a little bit different than not like you're going yeah I mean just you know keeping keeping your legs warm and then just having somebody to throw with on the sideline it's what I've done since youth football you know my dad's always like you need to throw on the sideline you need to throw on the sideline so if you seen me do that just know I'm I'm getting loose what do you think of kab's he had a great day you know that's a guy that's been working his tail off all Camp you know I'm really close with with kabot um happy for him you know happy we uh he got two touchdowns today he ran the ball really well you know protected well and and was running through some people so I'm I'm happy for him any difference were you having CL down on the sideline versus up in the bo um I I liked him on the sideline you know um I thought he caught a great game you know uh I thought I thought he did a great job kot's day we know that having an effective Run game obviously helps the passing in but just for you when you're in your position how does that help you mentality wise when you have this run game that's you know kind of cooking throughout the day yeah I mean if you look at it on you know first and second down if we could be in second and manageable third and short from Those runs I mean it's a lot easier to convert on third down I feel like we didn't have too many you know third and Longs today and if we did I feel like we converted you know at a pretty high rate but when we're in those third and manageable because we're running the ball so well that opens up quick game play actions boots I mean you know QB runs all that stuff so if we can run the ball that makes it a lot easier to get first downs Spencer where are you at in in the offense right now how comfortable do you feel with the Playbook and you I'm sure you've been through it now multiple times yeah very very comfortable you know out there uh thought our operation was really clean you know up front the guys did a great job today um you know in the o line running backs receivers made plays everybody did well as a group today our operation was great our EX was great and our communication was was Elite I thought if you had play a regon game you feel confident going in I would never say I'm not confident I'm always confident you know but U again I'm going to sit in my role do what I need to do and keep learning and getting better have you thought it all about how you're going to kind of attack the season and you know try to develop it all yeah just develop as much as I can you know learn from the guys in the room obviously it starts with Derrick he's our guy um great player um so staying in his ear you know working with him and Jake and our coaches and just continuing to improve every day and get closer and closer with the team this something that that's like hard for I mean not everybody who comes from college their starter at College be a starter in the NFL like get to adjust your mindset I guess kind going into this situation no I mean I I think this is a you know awesome situation to be behind somebody like Derek I mean he's a great guy again a great vet who's proven in this league you know I was in a situation similar at Oklahoma when Jaylen Herz was the starter so very comfortable learning as much as I can and trying to help get guys better yeah um I think just controlling what you can that's what it comes down to controlling the controllables um like I said you know earlier playing your best ball when you have the opportunity to helping your team um so that's that's all I try to do for real so just going out there and putting my best foot forward what did you think of playing in the dome it was awesome great environment fans are awesome energy was high um you can feel it it was great speaking of playing in the Bild what can you tell me about just the whole process of transitioning from college to the NFL over the course of the Min camps and training camp yeah I mean you know obviously you know speed of the game um Playbook wise I mean obviously there's going to be Transitions and learning curves and stuff like that but at the end of the day football is football and uh you know you got to roll the ball out and and make plays and execute um so you can't overthink it so dis play ball is there like one or two things from like day want a rookie Camp to now that you feel like like I really got better at this or I learned this or this was eye opening or anything like that um I think just you know communication I think that's one of the biggest Parts because you got to get out the Huddle first very cleanly and and and get up to the to the line and and operate and then just handling situations in the game you know two minutes um key critical situations to get us points I think that's where you take steps as a player um and credit to our coaches and how how we work at practice because we work those every day so when you get in the game you can't Flinch do you get a sense at all of the fan base and your kind of phenomenon if you will right now you run into people in the city since you go back yeah I mean fan base is awesome here obviously um kind of reminds me of South Carolina you know just loving fan base not the biggest Market but they they die for their players which is an awesome feeling you know I try my best to stay out the way you know social media and all the buzz and all that stuff so I just I work here you know uh I'm new I'm a rookie I'm just trying to get better improve help the team guy always I I got to keep it secret you know anything else thank you guys
