Everybody's always trying to go viral, 22 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 3: for something instead of the respectful thing of giving this 23 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 3: man the respect and honor that he deserved.

I can't do 52 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 4: the beard thing. I did the porn stash thing. Yeah, 53 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 4: you can't do a beard. It doesn't patches, little patches. 54 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: We got to cultivates patches. Who're saying patches, I don't know. 55 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 5: Know. 56 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 3: I had a patchy beard for a while. For a while. 57 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 3: You still get a little patchy. Yeah, that's why you 58 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 3: have to grow down a little bit longer so people 59 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 3: don't notice the patches analyzing my beard. 60 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 5: No to some lotion too. You look at a little ash. 61 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 5: No no, no, no, no, no. 62 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 3: Your boys. If we got here, you know you did important. 63 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 3: I want to see your elbows. Yeah, let's see your heels. 64 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: I could be aware of the fact that it's important 65 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: and not necessarily do it. I do want to ask 66 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: you about the offensive line before we hit the break here. 67 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: So he made a comment earlier in the first hour 68 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: about offensive line playing being terrible trash. 69 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 2: He said, he called it trash. 70 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: I feel like It's a weird thing for me, as 71 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: a guy that didn't play the game to ever call 72 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 1: another player trash. 73 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 2: Would you play against off. 74 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 5: The whole build play? 75 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your take on that? 76 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 4: I think I think there are some individual players that 77 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 4: are really good players in the offensive line, but by 78 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 4: and large, I think offensive line play has diminished. 79 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 5: In the league. 80 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 4: And I think part of the reason, maybe a significant part, 81 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 4: is that you can't I mean, you're limited in terms 82 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 4: of how much contact you can have. I think you 83 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 4: could still while being aware of head injuries and concussions. 84 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 4: You can still practice at a tempo and practice in 85 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 4: a smart way, but you have to have some contact. 86 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 4: You don't have to do what we used to do 87 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 4: back in the day, but anymore. I mean, these guys 88 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 4: over us now a seventeen game schedule, I think they 89 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 4: get fourteen. I think it's fourteen padded practices a year 90 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 4: to where you can have contact. I mean, think about that, 91 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 4: It's less than once a week. So yeah, and I 92 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 4: also think this. I think a lot of what we've 93 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 4: seen in college football is spread oriented, and so you've 94 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 4: got offensive linemen that are learning how to kickstep all 95 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 4: the time and not learning how to rock forward and 96 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 4: get off the ball with proper footwork and proper hand placement. 97 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 4: Those are things that are really important to if you're 98 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 4: going to try to run the ball. 99 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 5: So I don't know. I don't know the answer to it. 100 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 4: I don't think they'll ever go back, but I do 101 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 4: think we've seen overall line play. 102 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 3: Diminished well, just like we've seen quarterback play diminished too. 103 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: And I'm not It's hard for me because being an 104 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 3: active player, I don't want OTAs. I don't want to 105 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: go to OTAs, but they're extremely important for quarterbacks and 106 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 3: old line building, that chemistry with your old line. I 107 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 3: always try to tell people this, the best old line 108 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 3: men does not necessarily mean it's the best old line. 109 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 3: It's about the ones that can work the best together. 110 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: And they might individually be awful, but some teams have 111 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 3: gotten really good at their old line working together to 112 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 3: protect the quarterback. And I think that's still even more 113 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 3: rare now than it was before. It's this o line play, 114 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 3: you know in college, like Day said, all you doing 115 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: is backing up. A lot of guys don't even go 116 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 3: into a stance. Then are two point stance their whole 117 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 3: career to get in the NFL and an old line 118 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 3: coach said to get a three point Hey, coach, I've 119 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 3: never played in a three point Yeah, I was wondring 120 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 3: going to play in it today? 121 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: Yeah right, I was wondering how much coaching, you know, 122 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: factors into this, especially with what you guys were both 123 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: talking about the amount of padded practices you can get. 124 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: Are we still kind of in an era or period 125 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: where they're trying to figure that out because it was 126 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: only fifteen twenty years ago that you had more padded 127 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: practice you could do two a day's Well, they're not. 128 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 3: Going to add more padded practices because they're trying to 129 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 3: add more games, and so you're going to find I 130 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 3: wouldn't be surprised they dropped the padded practice to try 131 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 3: to entice the PA to accept their you know, eighteen 132 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 3: game proposal. 133 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: That's a great point. 134 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're going to you know, the NFL is not 135 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 3: you know, they're complicit in this too, like they they 136 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 3: have gone about this the complete wrong way because they 137 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 3: use the physicality to use the pattern practices as a 138 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: negotiation tool. So it's not necessarily about the best product 139 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 3: that we can get, and we know it's you know, 140 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 3: through practice and repetitions. But this is all just negotiation 141 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: tools for the next CBA. 142 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 2: On the coaching side of the Dave, just for a moment. 143 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: I mean, he's right. 144 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: It's not like we're going to suddenly realize that offensive 145 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: linemen need more time on the field and pads and 146 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: you need more time to be able to develop that 147 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: and if anything, it's going to get less. 148 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: So what do you do if you're a position coach? 149 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 2: In essence, I. 150 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 4: Think you just have to do the best you can. 151 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 4: I mean you have to. You got to maximize the 152 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 4: time you have. You've got to change sort of how 153 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 4: you do, what, what drills you do, how much time 154 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 4: you spend on those not now again with limited time, 155 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 4: you're trying, you're trying. There are plenty of NFL coaches 156 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 4: that honestly do not view themselves as coaches that should 157 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 4: have to work on technique a lot. 158 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 5: Maybe a little bit, but not a lot. 159 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 4: And I think that that's the best coaches that I, 160 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 4: again different era, but ever played for were guys that 161 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 4: were technicians that worked on techniques of whatever position they 162 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 4: were coaching, and you worked on them almost every day 163 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 4: in training camp, You worked at them in mini camp, 164 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 4: and you worked at them to a certain degree even 165 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 4: in the regular season. But a lot of coaching nowadays 166 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 4: in the NFL is, to me at least, is concepts. 167 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 4: You got to teach concepts. Hey, on this one, you know, 168 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 4: you're lined up in the slot, You're in a nasty split, 169 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 4: your four yards from the tackle, all right, snap the 170 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 4: ball free safety in middle of the fields closed. I 171 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 4: run this route in middlefield open, then I'm gonna run 172 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 4: a bender at twelve you have three or four so 173 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 4: and you have, like, I can't even begin to tell 174 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 4: you how many concepts to teach. So most of their time, 175 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 4: I won't say most of it, A lot of their 176 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 4: time is spent on making sure their room, their position 177 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 4: room knows, Hey what we call dragon. If you're lined 178 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 4: up here here, what do you run? What's the adjustment? 179 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 4: All right? 180 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 5: If you get this. 181 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 4: You know, there's just all of that instead of the 182 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 4: technique of. 183 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 3: That we used to work on all the time. No 184 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: attention to detail, honestly, And that's no time for detail exactly. 185 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 3: And I don't necessarily know what the fix will be 186 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 3: because the one thing they're not going to do is 187 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 3: give back that time that we've gotten to ourselves and 188 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 3: so there's really no other option right now for us 189 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 3: to figure it out. 190 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: That might be exception, like there're a whole a halftime show. Yeah, 191 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: I think I might be tuning in for that. Sorry 192 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: is whatever it is, I Daryl hall is is pretty awesome. 193 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: Five six six nights zeros are Kawa commis prettell text line. 194 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: So you bring up something a moment ago, Dave that 195 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: I want to come circle back to it. You're talking 196 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: about what these position coaches are specifically doing, and I 197 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: was thinking about this in terms of we found out 198 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: today that Carrie Colbert is signing with the Ravens and 199 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: Sean Payton ostensibly interviewing the next wide receiver coach. What 200 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: is Sean Payton focusing on in the next wide receiver coach? Like, 201 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: what differentiates one wide receiver coach from the next. It's 202 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: always been interesting thought in my head. 203 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 4: At the NFL level, sure, I think I think attention 204 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 4: to detail, what your coaching style is, what's your reaction 205 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 4: to I mean, if I was the head coach, I'd 206 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 4: want to know at that level. 207 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 5: So if you get a guy that. 208 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 4: Is bitching publicly after a game getting the ball, walk 209 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 4: me through the two or three things that you're going 210 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 4: to do to help remedy the situation. I'd want to 211 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 4: know what that receiver coach is thinking. I think you 212 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 4: have to. I mean to me. Players in the NFL 213 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 4: want want to be coached, but they want to know 214 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 4: that the guy coaching them knows what he's talking about. 215 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 4: So if the coach can stand up in the room, 216 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 4: and I've said this before so many times and say, listen, 217 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 4: I can help you get better and if you let 218 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 4: me coach you, but you have to let me coach you. 219 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 4: If you don't want me to coach you, just tell 220 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 4: me now and I won't waste my time with you. 221 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 4: I'll move on because there's seven, eight, nine, ten other 222 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 4: guys sitting in this room. 223 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 5: I'll coach them, right. So I'd want to. 224 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 4: Know the disposition of the coach. I'd want to know, honestly, 225 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 4: how competitive he is. I don't want to coach. You 226 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 4: can have a coach that loves his players. I ain't 227 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 4: trying to find a coach that like, these are my boys. 228 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 4: No they're not. 229 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 5: No, they're not. 230 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 4: You might be eight ten years old or they're they're 231 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 4: not your fellas. You ain't running with them. You ain't 232 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 4: hanging with them. You have to have a relationship that 233 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 4: maybe they'll tell you a few things that they might 234 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 4: not come to me on. But they are not your boys. 235 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 4: You are the coach, they are the player. You have 236 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 4: to be demanding. You gotta love them. You got to 237 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 4: know what you're talking about. But most importantly, you have 238 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 4: to convince them, like I can help you get better. 239 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 4: There's little things. If you get better, you know what, 240 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 4: You're gonna make more money and we're going to be 241 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 4: better as a team. 242 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 5: But you got just let me know if you're gonna 243 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 5: let me coach you or not. Well, most of the time. 244 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 3: Well especially now with the i'm not gonna say egos, 245 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 3: but with the way that a lot of players are today, 246 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 3: you don't get the hard coaching anymore. You have a 247 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 3: lot of coaches are more buddy buddy. 248 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 5: Absolutely like why I said what I said. 249 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: We're guys like we're friends here, Like I'm not gonna 250 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 3: yell at you, but you know what you did. It's 251 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 3: really more hands off and more of like out of 252 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 3: the coaching nowadays is if you're a pro player, If 253 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 3: you're a pro if you do everything how you're supposed 254 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 3: to as a pro. You'll be fine. But the young 255 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 3: guys that come in and do need a little bit 256 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 3: of coaching, do need do need some guidance? You won't 257 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 3: get that. And that's why you see a lot of 258 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: young players falling out the league more than more frequently 259 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 3: now than before. It's because, like I always tell people this, 260 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: my I would not still be here today if it 261 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 3: was not for Bill Colar and Diver and I. Ninety 262 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: percent of the d lineman today would not be able 263 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 3: to play for him because he's gonna, he's gonna m few, 264 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,719 Speaker 3: he's going, he's gonna yell at you, but at the 265 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 3: end of the day, he just wants the best for you, 266 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 3: even if you don't want to get it for yourself. 267 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 5: And he knows how to help you get better. 268 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: So are you saying young players are soft? 269 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 3: It's because an il era in college and the transfer portal. 270 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 3: Oh you better yell at me, I'll transfer. Oh don't 271 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 3: who are you talking to I don't have to be here. 272 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,599 Speaker 3: I can leave next year now. All that does is 273 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 3: ruin you for the NFL. That's all it does. 274 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: Fascinating coaches. 275 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 4: Some coaches are I won't stay scared but reticent to 276 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 4: really coach a player hard because the player in the 277 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 4: big picture might be more important to the team than 278 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 4: the coach. So if you coach that player hard and 279 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 4: you challenge him, and that player wants to spit the 280 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 4: bit on you, and if he's the wrong type character, 281 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 4: you know the team's gonna sooner or later take him over. 282 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 4: You easy to replace a receivers coach than your star receiver. 283 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 3: It's not bad on the it's not bad on the years. 284 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: Not bad at all.

Okay, So, so Dave was talking 322 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: about that, like the things that Sean Payne is going 323 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: to be looking for for a wide receivers coach. What 324 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: has jumped out to you and you said being coached hard, 325 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: that's one thing that differentiates. 326 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 2: But from maybe an nex is a no schematic standpoint? 327 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: Is there anything that differentiates or a they usually getting 328 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: their marching orders from a defensive coordinator from the head coach. 329 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 3: Well, I've had some crappy coaches, and what I can 330 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 3: say is, you know, we talk about attention to detail, 331 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 3: and especially on the D line. You know, if you 332 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 3: just tell me to go up there and do my thing, 333 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 3: I'm not assuming you don't know what you're talking about. 334 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 3: But if you want to tell me, hey, put your hands, 335 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 3: you know, put your hands on them, you know, put 336 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 3: your hands on the inside plate, shed them and then 337 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 3: you know, using your hands and if we can talk 338 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 3: about the specifics. And that's why for me, I am 339 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 3: a fan of coaches that played my last D line 340 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: couple of my D line coach now or whatever, last 341 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 3: or now in Cleveland, Jocktures, he played for the Chargers 342 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 3: for ten for nine to ten years, you know what 343 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 3: I mean. So he's not going to tell you to 344 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 3: do something unrealistic, which in the defense that we play 345 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 3: in an attack for three, you do get some unrealistic 346 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,959 Speaker 3: things that people try to tell you to do. And 347 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 3: so especially I know, especially myself and a lot of 348 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 3: the positions, if you're going to have a coach that 349 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 3: kind of knows the ends and out of your position 350 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 3: and has played your position like you respect that way 351 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 3: more than anything because you feel like you have a 352 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 3: soundboard to bounce ideas off of and to talk shop. 353 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 3: And I think that's that's getting rare and rare around 354 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 3: the league. And it's all just because once again, coaching 355 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 3: is just about who you know, just like life, it's 356 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 3: the buddy the buddy system. It doesn't matter if you're 357 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 3: a good coach or not. If we're best friends, You're 358 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 3: coming with me to my job and I'm going to 359 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 3: give you a coordinator job and you may not even 360 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 3: know what you're doing. And we go back to this 361 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 3: Pete Carrolton in Vegas. Just because you know them and 362 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 3: just because your family or friends does not mean they're 363 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 3: the best choice to be a coach. We need to 364 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 3: get back to the days. I don't even know if 365 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 3: there ever was the days, but the days of I 366 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 3: want to hire people on merit, not just because of 367 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 3: who you know, who you know. 368 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 4: No, we've never the league league is head coaches want. 369 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 4: I mean, you have to have a certain football sense, 370 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 4: a certain amount of football acumen. But they also I 371 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 4: mean guys that they can trust that, guys that are 372 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 4: accountable to them, Guys that they are familiar with in 373 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 4: terms of how they coach, They know that they're they're 374 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 4: they're good with the grind. Those guys are going to 375 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 4: get the first opportunities to be on the staff. Now 376 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 4: if you can't, you know, fill every single position with guys. 377 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 4: When then you look at you you look to bring 378 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 4: some young coaches in that can sort of living up 379 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 4: your staff, your staff from a youthful standpoint, but you 380 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 4: want guys to that are going to grind. They're gonna work, 381 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 4: and they're gonna work the way you want them to work, 382 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 4: and they're going to handle players the right way. 383 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 5: They're not going to be a pain in the ass. 384 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 4: And you're not going to get a call five in 385 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 4: the morning and say, well, three of the receivers just 386 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 4: to use that illustration, UH just got caught doing blankety 387 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 4: blank blank can blank. The first thing the head coach 388 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 4: is going to say or think is what the hell right? 389 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 4: And he's going to look at the receiver coach and 390 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 4: say so you had no idea that this is now. 391 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 4: He's going to not completely blame him, but you're in 392 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 4: charge of the room, and so the head coach wants 393 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 4: guys that he's familiar with, that that he's confident can 394 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 4: do the job. 395 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: So what you say, coaches are head coaches or maybe 396 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: a little risk averse when it comes to two new 397 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 1: guys like like, for example, we were talking about you know, 398 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 1: Davis you know now being the offensive coordinator, but he 399 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: was hired as the quarterbacks coach. 400 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: Sean Payte didn't have experience with him. 401 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 1: That was a little bit of a risk to bring 402 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,719 Speaker 1: him on, but maybe a quarterbacks coach a little bit 403 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: different than there, like an OC or something like that. 404 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 4: Plus he saw how he interacted with the most important 405 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 4: player in the team. And that's to me, that's as 406 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 4: much I'm not saying Davis Webb isn't a good coach, 407 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 4: because I think he is how he presents himself. Sean's 408 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 4: had a chance over the year to see is he 409 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,959 Speaker 4: a worker? What times he what times he here? I mean, 410 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 4: you can tell guys are going to get in when 411 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 4: you tell them to get in, they're going to get in. 412 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 4: But you can tell are they getting in, are they working? 413 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 4: Do they get their work done? Are they the first 414 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 4: one out the door? Do they leave as soon as 415 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 4: that meeting ends? Are they you know, if you're supposed 416 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 4: to be here, Let's say Sean's a little bit of 417 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 4: a late morning guy. 418 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 5: But if you're supposed to be here, let's say at. 419 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 4: Six thirty, do they walk in at six thirty or 420 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 4: when you get there at ten after six do you 421 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 4: already have three or four of your assistants that are 422 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 4: already there working. I mean, so it's all of that 423 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 4: stuff matters. But head coaches, I think have so much 424 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 4: to do nowadays that they they Yes, I think it's 425 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 4: important for them that they hire guys that they have 426 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 4: that confidence in, Like, Hey, if this thing, if it's 427 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 4: about to go down, you know, I got three or 428 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 4: four of my guys, and we're going to go back 429 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 4: to back, right, I mean negatively speaking, but I know 430 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 4: they've got my back. I know there won't be a mutinty. 431 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 4: I know that if other coaches, the two young coaches 432 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 4: that I brought in start to kind of get out 433 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 4: of the line, I know one of these two veteran 434 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 4: coaches will take them aside and say listen, man, that's 435 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 4: not how it's not how we do stuff. You got 436 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 4: to have sort of second lieutenants and maybe two or 437 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 4: three of them. 438 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 3: And that's why the coaches who consistently, you know, just 439 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 3: hook up their friends and when it doesn't work out, 440 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 3: it will never work out because you're when you get 441 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 3: a second job, you're going to bring the same guys around. Yeah, 442 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,959 Speaker 3: you know, when I was here with the Broncos at 443 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 3: first and they hired vic I don't know if you 444 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 3: guys remember, but it was rumors that Gary Kubiak was 445 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 3: supposed to be the offensive coordinator. That wasn't a rumor 446 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 3: that that was happened. It was supposed to happen. They 447 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 3: did not want the on line coach and another coach 448 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 3: to come back with him, and that that's true too, 449 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 3: because they didn't like the way they worked. But even 450 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 3: though they had won the Super Bowl, they weren't they before. 451 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 3: They weren't happy with what these coaches had done, and 452 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 3: they weren't a them before. They didn't want to bring 453 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 3: them back again. But that's what happens in the league. 454 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 3: These coaches travel and they bring people with them and 455 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: a lot of times and that's why I have a 456 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 3: hard time believing if it doesn't work out in one place, 457 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 3: it's probably not going to work out another because you're 458 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 3: probably bringing the same staff. And the most important part 459 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 3: of the staff is not necessarily the head coach, it's 460 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 3: the assistant coaches. So if you keep bringing your friends 461 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 3: around and they suck and to just not good coaches 462 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 3: and that they were, and they just don't do their 463 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 3: job to a satisfactory standard, and you keep bringing them around, 464 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 3: you're never going to get the same you know, you're 465 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 3: going to keep getting the same response, the same result. 466 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 3: So that's why I'm a believer of it doesn't really 467 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 3: matter if you're friends with somebody. I just want the 468 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 3: best staff. And obviously I get it, you don't want, 469 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 3: you know, people going against you. You don't want a mutiny 470 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 3: to happen. 471 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 5: That's fair. 472 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 3: But do you want to win games? That's really, for 473 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,959 Speaker 3: me the most important part. And sometimes you might have 474 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 3: to work with somebody you might not get along with 475 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 3: the best, but you have to have a respect for them. 476 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 3: He's the best coach possible. 477 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 4: See, that's the hardest thing I think in terms of 478 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 4: hiring coaches. If you haven't worked with the guy I mean, 479 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 4: if you hired a head coach. Let's just say part 480 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 4: of Clint Kubiak's deal in Las Vegas was, listen, you 481 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 4: can't bring any of the guys that you've ever worked 482 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 4: with before. 483 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 5: I mean, that would be an arduous task. 484 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 4: How does Clint kubiac going to know he wants to 485 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 4: interview Shelby as a defensive line coach. Well, the information 486 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,719 Speaker 4: he has is through the grapevine is what people that 487 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 4: Shelby has coached before have said about him. 488 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 5: It's a coach that me. 489 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 4: Clint Kubiak knows Ryan, who's coach the Dolphins. I call 490 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 4: him say, what do you think about Shelby? Harris, Well, 491 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 4: I've heard he does this. He's good, good, but it's 492 00:24:53,160 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 4: all that networking thing. But if you mean it's Shelby's theoretically, 493 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 4: Shelby's point is true, but I think it's really challenging 494 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 4: to find. It's It's why the cutting edge like offensive, 495 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 4: the young offensive coaches are you know, always coveted because 496 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 4: those veteran head coaches are looking for. 497 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 5: Okay, what is what does Cliff Kingsbury do here? 498 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 4: Because even though he didn't win a lot of games 499 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 4: in his Arizona, you know, put up a lot of 500 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 4: points and what did you do in Washington when he 501 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 4: was there. They're trying, you're trying to supplement your staff 502 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:38,199 Speaker 4: with ideas more than particular coaches and their coaching style. 503 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: Well, and then you're seeing guys like Cliff Kingsbury, for example, 504 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: maybe take a position coach role. They take more of 505 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: an analyst role with it with an organization. 506 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 4: That I think is a smart hire by Sean McVay. Yeah, 507 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 4: I mean, rest assured as bright as Sean is. Sean 508 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 4: will be picking Cliff Kingsbury's brain about hey man, so 509 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,360 Speaker 4: you know, give me all the sort of what sort 510 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 4: of checks do you have when you get too empty? 511 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 4: And what do you do against this? And that's that's 512 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 4: just how coaches. Coaches steal from coaches, like all the 513 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 4: friggin time. I can't tell you how much over thirty 514 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 4: three years, as I'm just a high school coach, but 515 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 4: watching college tape and NFL tape, you try to find 516 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 4: things that you can then sort of not dumb down, 517 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 4: but so you can implement them at the high school 518 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 4: level that it's a good concept that you feel like 519 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 4: your team would benefit from do that you spend I 520 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 4: mean a ton of time in the I mean the 521 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 4: next two weeks. For me, I'll bet three hours a 522 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 4: day I will be on the iPad looking at stuff 523 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 4: that the Dolphins did last year in the running game, 524 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 4: or stuff that Indiana this year. In college football, you 525 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 4: get access to all of those, all twenty twos in 526 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 4: zone copies. 527 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 5: You have access to it. 528 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 4: And so I think you do a disservice to your 529 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 4: team if you don't take that time and try to 530 00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 4: find ways to get better. 531 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: Well, I would say you're not just high school coach. 532 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 5: You're damn good high school coach. Everyone is the best 533 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 5: of the country. Appreciate, I think. 534 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 3: But what I will say when it, you know, comes 535 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 3: to that is every week, you know is the flavor 536 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 3: of the week. What is the flavor of the week. 537 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 3: And the biggest thing I guess people need to realize 538 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 3: about the NFL, like what Dave says, is they steal. 539 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 3: They steal everything. If the week before that team sees 540 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 3: a certain type of run happen and it works the 541 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 3: next week, even if that team does not run that play, 542 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 3: you will see that play happen, no doubt, because that's 543 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 3: just how the NFL works. Everybody steals from each other. Everybody, 544 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,479 Speaker 3: you know, takes a piece of what they think they 545 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 3: can use in their offense and they kind of change it. 546 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 3: And I think with Kingsbury going to the Rams, you 547 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 3: will see some tweaks of that Nickveigh offense, and I 548 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 3: think that's a dynamic duo right there. I think they're 549 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 3: gonna be able to come up with some some kookie 550 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 3: things that we probably haven't seen before. 551 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 5: Yeah. 552 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: I mean, at that point, you're you're sort of taking 553 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: two of the best minds in the game in a 554 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 1: lot of ways, right and then being able to and 555 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: I guess that's probably how you stay on the cutting 556 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: edge in a lot of ways, because you know everybody's 557 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 1: borrowing anyways. But this is a way where you could 558 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: take Sean mcvay's offense, which everybody seems to want a 559 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: piece of, and then sort of take it into the 560 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: next level. I like that one last thing on this 561 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: because I think this is a fascinating conversation. And I'm 562 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: sure you guys have examples of this because you kind 563 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: of brought it up about sometimes a coach is trying 564 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 1: to tell you to do something and you're like, that 565 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: just doesn't make a lot of sense. As a player, 566 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: professional player, what are you do in that situation when 567 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: you have a position coach is maybe giving you advice 568 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: because you've had several they are probably all having different things. 569 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: So I remember Garrett Bull's talking about that specifically, I 570 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: had like nine different coaches over the first part of 571 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: his career, and they're all trying to coach me different ways. 572 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 5: What do you do? 573 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 2: What are you supposed to do in that case? 574 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 4: I think coaches, for I mean, I think players for 575 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,719 Speaker 4: the most part, are pretty smart, and I think, as 576 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 4: Shelby said, you've got some I mean this is not 577 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 4: throwing shade intentionally at the NFL, but you have you 578 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 4: have some coaches in the l that I don't think 579 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 4: are very good coaches, and because they're in the NFL, 580 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 4: people think like, okay, that's the ultimate it is. But 581 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 4: you know, how did you get there, and how do 582 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 4: you stay there? And most importantly, how do you make 583 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 4: your players better? I will say this, I played in 584 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 4: the league a long time broadcast. 585 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 3: There. 586 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 4: I bet in thirty three years as a high school coach, 587 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 4: I've met a handful of high school coaches that I 588 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 4: think are better coaches than guys I've encountered at the 589 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 4: college level. Now they just are they choose to stay 590 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 4: in high school. But many I'm just telling you, you know, 591 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 4: you sit and get on a board. I mean, if 592 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 4: you want to know what a coach knows and how 593 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 4: he teaches it, take an hour and get on a 594 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 4: whiteboard and start talking concepts, and hey, what do you 595 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 4: do if this, if this is. 596 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 5: The front, what do you do? You'll find out quickly, right. 597 00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 4: But to your point, I think players in the NF 598 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 4: well just have to know that's part of the deal. 599 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 4: You're gonna you're gonna have, hopefully you know, a good 600 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 4: coach or two really good that can help you get better. 601 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 4: You're gonna have a coach that maybe he's trying his 602 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 4: ass off, but you know almost immediately, Okay, you know, 603 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 4: I'm gonna let him coach me, but I don't trust 604 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 4: what he's saying. What he's saying to me, I know 605 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 4: that's not true. Now, in terms of the pushback, you 606 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 4: only to me, at least, you only push back if 607 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 4: he really wants to continue to thrust and say, hey, 608 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 4: you know I've told you about this, we got to 609 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 4: get to this or this depth or whatever. Then to me, 610 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 4: you go in and have a conversation with him, like, listen, 611 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 4: there's no way that that makes sense, you know from 612 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 4: that from that angle at sixteen, I'm gonna be there 613 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 4: before you get you know that, and try to try 614 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 4: to make your point, but yeah, you're not gonna You're 615 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 4: not gonna be blessed with like the absolute best position 616 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 4: coach your entire career. 617 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 5: That just doesn't happen. 618 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 3: And that's what I expected when I got into the league. 619 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 5: Me too. 620 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 3: Oh it's the NFL, We're going to have the best coaches, 621 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 3: and I was. It was a sad moment when I 622 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 3: realized that these coaches don't know anything. Most of these 623 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: coaches really are just here because they know somebody. Like 624 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,719 Speaker 3: I said before, but it was a sad day when 625 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 3: we figured out that, like I know more than the coaches. 626 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 3: And that's not even being full of yourself. That's the truth. 627 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 3: Like these coaches will just will come here and they 628 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 3: will they could be a kicker in the coaching d line. 629 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 5: Or you know what I mean, no kickers coaching. I'm 630 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 5: just saying, what the hell you talking? 631 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 3: What I will say is I did have a and 632 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 3: I had a coach before it was O lineman and 633 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 3: he played D three O line and he ended up 634 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 3: being the D line coach. And I remember one time 635 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 3: he told me, you know, I want you to girls 636 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 3: the ball and I want you to put your hands 637 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 3: up like a triangle and put your hands up on 638 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 3: one part of the shoulder pad and push. I was like, 639 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 3: that makes no damn sense. As a D lineman is what. 640 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 3: I only put my hands on one part of your 641 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 3: shoulder pad. And the next year he was a kicking coach. 642 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 3: It's just amazing story. That's amazing. But like that's the 643 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 3: thing though, It's like sometimes you listen, like they said, 644 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 3: you listen to coaches and you realize it's like he 645 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 3: doesn't know what the hell he's talking about, and it's 646 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 3: a very humbling thing because you have to figure out 647 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 3: and you have to have a conversation with your D 648 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 3: line about, hey, it's really just us in here, so 649 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 3: we have to figure out how we're going to hold 650 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 3: each other accountable, how we're going to work at practice, 651 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 3: how we are going to actually do things to get 652 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,719 Speaker 3: better because the coaches are helping us. 653 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 2: That's fascinating stuff, man, very very cool. 654 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: All right, we'll come back As I mentioned, Adam Schefter 655 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 1: talking about how the free agency and Trey and draft 656 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: are expected to be a bit light, and how some 657 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: teams are approaching. 658 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 2: We'll get to the next
