1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Good. How are you guys doing good? Yeah,

2
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: I mean it's not his best obviously, love to have

3
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 1: some of those kicks back. I think the cool part, Uh,

4
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: we love him here, we love what he's done. We

5
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: have say, he's saved us a million times over the years,

6
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: and we get an opportunity the bye. We came in

7
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: a perfect time for him, for me, for everybody, all

8
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 1: our players and coaches, to kind of reset, get back

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: to what you do. Cam strikes the ball as good

10
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: as anybody in the league, and so to get back

11
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: to that. He was able to go home to his

12
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: hometown and in Oklahoma City and and kick on his

13
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: old goal post, and you know, he was able to

14
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 1: kind of reach back and kind of do the things

15
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: he does. And we've had some great conversations. It's been

16
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: really really good. This is part of his process as

17
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: a young kicker, a young specialist. Uh. You know, you

18
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: hate to see it happen kind of this little rough

19
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: patch a little bit, uh, but this is part of it.

20
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: I told him, you're gonna have uh, you know, three

21
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: or four of these probably over your course of your

22
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: fifteen year career. So this is how we got to

23
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: manage it. This is how we got to work through it,

24
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: and and we're gonna work through with him, and so

25
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: it's a uh it's a cool time for him to

26
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: kind of work through it with the bye week, get

27
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: extra time to do it.

28
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: Uh.

29
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: And I'm excited. I'm fired up to see him, to

30
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: see him kick on Sunday. It's gonna be really cool

31
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: to kind of see where he's come. And like I said,

32
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 1: we love him to death.

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 3: To make sure like check on him, to make sure

34
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 3: that it doesn't think shape that he's.

35
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: Very confident and we're confident in him, you know, as

36
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: he should. He's super talented, and then he has the

37
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: right mindset, the work ethic, he does all the right things,

38
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: uh to have that confidence. And so we love it.

39
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's what makes him a great kicker.

40
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: And nothing's nothing wavered with him or with us. You know,

41
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: it's something that you know, the organization starting from the top, uh,

42
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: you know, to to to Liam and and down to me.

43
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: We love them to death, nothing but confidence. We've all

44
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: had plays this year we love to have back and

45
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: and I've had stuff that I'd love to have back.

46
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, even in within that game, you know,

47
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: against the Rams, there's things I'd love to have back,

48
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: and when you know some of our players will save me.

49
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: You know, Monterek makes an open field tackle on something

50
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: that I didn't put the guys in the best position,

51
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 1: but they've saved me, just like Cam. You know, we

52
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: got Cam's back the same way.

53
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 4: The league got a little bit of a history of

54
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 4: guys pulling trig or too early on getting rid of

55
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 4: a kicker who goes into a little bit of a slum,

56
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 4: and then you've always and they go to another team

57
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden they rediscover things. So is

58
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 4: that maybe one of the things in mind with haveing

59
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 4: patience with Cam?

60
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: That's that's football. I think that's all of our players.

61
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: You love them, you work with them, and sometimes you're

62
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: not gonna have your best plays out there, your best kicks.

63
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: But what do we do. We coach them up, we

64
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: work with them, we help them, we love them up

65
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: and get him better at you know, at any whatever

66
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: position that is that's not gonna happen here. I think

67
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: he's a guy that's that puts it, takes as much

68
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: accountability on himself as anybody, and so that the work

69
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: ethic he has, He's gonna be great. Like I said,

70
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 1: I'm excited to watch him on Sunday. He's gonna he's

71
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: gonna have a spectacular game. He's gonna help us win

72
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: a ton of games this year. He's a big part

73
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: of we're gonna do for the next you know, a

74
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: bunch of years. Uh, you know here in Jacksonville, Dude,

75
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: I want to ask.

76
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 5: On the covers teams.

77
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 4: Obviously you know you lost the ingramsamas existence were made.

78
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 5: I guess a couple of the guys were in there.

79
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: Rayon lane, Uh, he's made some big plays on pumps

80
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 4: and everything.

81
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 6: What do you like about that kid?

82
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: Ray has been unbelievable. He's he's had an exceptional year.

83
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: His ability to to cover kicks, not only on the

84
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: punt and kickoff group is spectacular, whether he's facing a

85
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: double team and advice, his contact balance, his speed, his strength,

86
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: his toughness, and I think the probably the best thing

87
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: about him his his He's an animal on Sundays that

88
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: you know, the guy we see in the meeting rooms,

89
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: the guy we see out here, you know, in the

90
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: halls and on practice field is not the same guy

91
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: that we get out on the game and Uh. You know,

92
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: he's a he's a he plays at a motor, a

93
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 1: relentless effort and speed and and that you don't see

94
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: a lot of players play with the knack to get

95
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: to the football. It's it's he's having an umble little year.

96
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: And he's a special player. He's exactly what we were

97
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: hoping he would be UH when we drafted him, and

98
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: he maybe even better. He he is an exceptional player

99
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: UH in the coverage groups. But I think what really

100
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: kind of separates him to UH is his ability in

101
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: the return game. He is a key part of some

102
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: of those key blocks. Anytime we have a big return,

103
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: whether it's Parker or kick return guys, he's a big

104
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 1: part of it. He always has great matchups UH, and

105
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: and he wins a lot of them. He wins most

106
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: of them. So he's a he's a special player, a

107
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: talented player that that works at it with with great effort.

108
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 6: Parker's here as a decision wise.

109
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: You know, obviously you know he had the big return

110
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: against San Francisco. Love to have that one against the Rams.

111
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: But he's been he's been a great player, whether he's

112
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: catching the ball clean, making great decisions back there and

113
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: then he's a he's a dynamic returner that you know,

114
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: opposing teams have to be aware of. But uh so

115
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: he's been spectacular and the guy's blocking for him that

116
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: you know, I want to give a lot of credit

117
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: to those guys. We have a bunch of uh, you know,

118
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 1: young players that have played unbelievable. You know, we have

119
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: a ton of rookies and young players that have stepped

120
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: up that are that are a big part of our

121
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: core group, you know, besides you know, ray On, But

122
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: we have a bunch of them. You know, Danny's been

123
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: a big part of it. Uh bj has been Jack

124
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: has been good. So we got a bunch of good

125
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: players that have kind of stepped up at that wrong

126
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: young role as a core group and really bonded together,

127
00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: you know, as a great group. What did he mean

128
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: to you and your transition to coaching all that time?

129
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: So with the uh pee coach, Carroll's a is a

130
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: great mentor of mine. I mean, I think he's a

131
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: guy that I learned a ton of you know from

132
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 1: as a player. Uh and then obviously working under he

133
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: kind of you know, he took me under you know,

134
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: under his wing that first uh you know year in coaching.

135
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: And I was out there for two years, and a

136
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: lot of the stuff my coaching philosophies and and and

137
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: techniques that I teach now it comes straight from Coach Carroll. So, uh,

138
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: it's a guy that I respect. Looking forward to seeing him, uh,

139
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: you know, pregame or post game again. I love him

140
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: to death. I think he's an exceptional coach. The motivation,

141
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: the teaching, that everything he did as far as philosophy

142
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: and details. Uh, it was such a big part of

143
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: what we did out there in Seattle.

144
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 7: Uh.

145
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: And and and I incorporate a lot of my coaching

146
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: of what I learned from him.

147
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 4: He was one of those coaches he's never who thought

148
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 4: special teams were just equally as important as the other

149
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 4: two units. That you know, there was an intention to

150
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 4: detail in that regard, wasn't wasn't it?

151
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 7: Yeah?

152
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: I mean Coach Carroll sitting sat in a lot of

153
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 1: those meetings. It was very, very important. I believe you'd

154
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: probably have to ask him, but I believe I was

155
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: probably uh it was out there as one of those

156
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: guys of just hey, uh, he's here just to play

157
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: special teams. I played a little bit of linebacker, but

158
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: I was there to play special teams and and to

159
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: be a leader, and it was important to him. Uh,

160
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: you know, it was a big part of what we did.

161
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: You know, we had some great, fantastic players, some Hall

162
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: of Fame players on some of those teams on offense

163
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: and defense. Uh. But those special teams groups were some

164
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: of the top in the NFL over the years. And

165
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: you know it's you know, we had some big time

166
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: plays and big time games.

167
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 6: Uh.

168
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: You know, whether it's fake punts in in the in

169
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game to the Super Bowl kick return

170
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: with Percy Harvin. So we had some great plays. There

171
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: was just as important to the offense and defense was

172
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: that special teams groups.

173
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 6: After him for a second, did he have to change.

174
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 8: Anything play form wise or did you have n't speak anything?

175
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: No, that's the best part. I think. I think the

176
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: best part is get back to what he did, what

177
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: he does strike in the football. Uh. And then the reset,

178
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: I think just going with a clean slate, get back

179
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: do we do watching film, getting details and then and

180
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: then the break. You know, we all needed a break,

181
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: and we come back and we'refreshed, we're ready to go.

182
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: We're excited about this week. It's gonna be a great matchup.

183
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're so I'm excited to watch him. What

184
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: do you like about best Slitch did it great? I

185
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: thought he did a great job obviously with the rams

186
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: and their ability to kind of put the ball on

187
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: the ground. Uh, you know, their kicker did a really

188
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: good job with that. I thought Diame would handle the

189
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: ball really well, especially with the wet game down out

190
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: there in London. Uh, And he handled it well. And

191
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: I love the way he hit the return was able

192
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: to break some tackles. He's a he's a talented returner,

193
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: just like the rest of the rest of our guys.

194
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: We got two young rookies that have been filled in

195
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 1: nicely and and they're coming along great. They're improving each week.

196
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: You know those guys are you know, they're bought into

197
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: special teams and and and and they're a part of it.

198
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: So we got a good group. Uh, you know, besides Parker,

199
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: we've got a good group you know that that all

200
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: can return and we'll kind of rotate them through as

201
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,319
Speaker 1: we see matchup fit So herb and a radio show.

202
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 4: Where Logan was getting criticized a little bit for not

203
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 4: being is is he kind of the victim of the

204
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 4: standard he set over the last seven or eight years,

205
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 4: because his stats are kind of in the top eight

206
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 4: or ten still. But you know, everybody's used to seeing

207
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 4: Logan right at the top. So, uh, you know, do

208
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 4: you have as with Cam Do you have the same

209
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 4: amount of poutfus with Logan?

210
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 1: Absolutely? And I think you're right. I mean, is he

211
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: you know, he'd probably love to have a few of

212
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 1: those punts back as well. And that's that's part of

213
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: a uh, you know, part of football. I think the

214
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: best part is we've got a lot of season left.

215
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: H At the end of the day, we're all going

216
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 1: to get better as this season goes on. Logan will

217
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 1: be fine. Logan'll kick great, you know, he'll ben he'll

218
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: punt great, and he'll end up being one of the

219
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: top punters in the league. We'll keep covering for him.

220
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: Our guys are doing a really good job covering. So yeah,

221
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: there's not a concern learn about Logan. It's a he's

222
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: right where he should be. We'll be We'll be okay.

223
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 9: What's been the challenge?

224
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: What's been the challenge?

225
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 10: I guess with the new kickoffs not necessarily new, but

226
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 10: it seems like more teams are deploying different types of kickoffs.

227
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: You mentioned the rams. What's been the challenge this year, not.

228
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 10: Only for the return game but also for your kicking

229
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 10: game to just figure out pretty much.

230
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 6: A sweet spot.

231
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the sweet spot is the is

232
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: probably the best word for it. It's a matter of

233
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: if we're on kickoff, is that it's obviously great to

234
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: put the ball on the ground. Uh, you're kind of

235
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 1: playing with fire because all of a sudden you leave

236
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,959
Speaker 1: one short and and you and you're getting a penalty

237
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: before the play even starts. And then also if they

238
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: catch it clean right off the bat and it's a

239
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: short kick, that's also a problem. So there's kind of

240
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: a mixed bag of do you do some missile kicks?

241
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: Do you just you know, do the old drive balls

242
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: butt to the you know, inside the five is ideal?

243
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 1: But that's kind of something Those are those decisions and

244
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: those are those game time game plan decisions we have

245
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: to make of what is best fit, how is our

246
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: matchup for each week? Uh, but that's yeah, that's the

247
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: sweet spot of it is what do we think is

248
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: we're our best way to cover and to pin them deep?

249
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: To pin them deep and then in the kickoff coverage

250
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: group or a kickoff return group to to to get

251
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: those short fields. How valuable was that value just for

252
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: you to sort of get the sense.

253
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 11: Of where deep is.

254
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's uh, it was super valuable.

255
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 7: I think just in a lot of ways, you know,

256
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 7: physically for our guys was recovering. And then for us

257
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 7: to kind of collectively as a staff every year, that's

258
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 7: a great opportunity to sit back and look at what

259
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 7: you've been doing well, what you haven't been doing well,

260
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 7: where you got to improve, and then where you can grow,

261
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 7: like where you can add on from stuff that you're

262
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 7: already doing.

263
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 5: So it was really super valuable for us.

264
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: Uh.

265
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 5: I thought our coaches did a great job.

266
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 7: Just coming back with the reports and you know, as

267
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 7: a staff, for us to sit down and look at

268
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 7: every little nuance of our system and where we can

269
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 7: improve it was it was useful.

270
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

271
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 7: I mean you always do without giving away a competitive advantage,

272
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,319
Speaker 7: what you definitely do you uh, you know, you look

273
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 7: at where you got to improve. I always kind of

274
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 7: lean toward that more than anything. You know, where do

275
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 7: we have to improve? How can we improve there? And

276
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 7: I said a few times in here, like, because it's

277
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 7: a long season in this league, you really start to

278
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 7: learn right about this time. I always say, you know,

279
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 7: as you start to roll in through November, what your

280
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 7: team really does do well?

281
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 5: And you know this is really when real football starts.

282
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 6: With uh with followers come back Mentry. You look at

283
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 6: his tape from early you're how impressive.

284
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 7: Is Yeah, what we did with him also is we

285
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 7: really did a deep dive even last year just watching him,

286
00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 7: he's an elite level player. He's really really explosive obviously

287
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 7: for a guy at that position, but I think his

288
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 7: acceleration after the catch is really impressive. So just top

289
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 7: the bottom as a player, as a tight end, he

290
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 7: really gives them a lot of Honestly, he's got a

291
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 7: lot of skills that some guys at deposition don't have.

292
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 5: I think he's an elite level player.

293
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 10: A bunch of you missed Trayvon Walker being full in

294
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 10: your defense and how long until you suppose.

295
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: You have your back?

296
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's He's gutted it out through.

297
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 7: You know, Trey had a surgery there and played I

298
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 7: think about as fast as you can get back from

299
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 7: a surgery. He's a total team guy. And is trying

300
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 7: to contribute as best he can. But I thought he

301
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 7: had a really good week this week. You know, it

302
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 7: looks a little bit different to me, you know, just

303
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 7: kind of flying around and getting closer back to his

304
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 7: normal self. So he had a really good practice yesterday,

305
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 7: which you're excited about. So, like I said, appreciate everything

306
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 7: he's done. He's given us great effort for all the

307
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 7: reps that he's in there, but he's pounced back pretty quick.

308
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 4: Oh as the rotation on the second hear to the town,

309
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 4: the Eric and Murray banged up new somece new Buster

310
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 4: Brown just got healthy traps out to rotating between offense

311
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 4: and defense.

312
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, anytime you have injuries, obviously in this league, it's

313
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 7: gonna happen.

314
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 5: That's always a challenge.

315
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 7: But the guys have done a great job with UH

316
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 7: with the rotation, you know, and then obviously great coming

317
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 7: in UH two games ago, and he's done a good

318
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 7: job stepping in and starting to learn the system and

319
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 7: more and more, I think he's becoming more and more comfortable,

320
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 7: you know, with the more opportunities he has out there

321
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 7: in practice. And then like you said, with Buster being

322
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 7: out throughout pretty much the entire camp and then coming back.

323
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 7: I woun't want to say, look what week three really

324
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 7: getting back rolling again. He's done a great job too.

325
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 7: But it's a great atmosphere in that room. Those guys

326
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 7: have a great collective spirit about pushing each other and

327
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 7: you know, next man up.

328
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 5: So it's been a lot of fun working with those guys.

329
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 8: Sometimes that I guess the trust all in the field

330
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 8: take a little bit more time since different pieces.

331
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I wouldn't necessarily say that.

332
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 7: I think just getting used to playing with each other

333
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 7: and communicating together, you know what I mean. I think

334
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 7: Eric is a really good communicator, and I think Antonio

335
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 7: Johnson has done a really good job stepping in when

336
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 7: he had to come in for Eric last week.

337
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 5: I thought he did a really good job.

338
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 7: If you watch him in the game against the Rams,

339
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 7: he had a pretty good game for us, and he's

340
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 7: done a good job stepping in.

341
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 8: What stands out about Jen t and just the fact

342
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 8: that they're willing to put so much of their offense

343
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 8: on him.

344
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 5: As a rookiet. Yeah, he's a tough kid.

345
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 7: I mean he runs the ball hard as hell, you know,

346
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 7: and you watch him just he brings it running through

347
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 7: contact you know, he runs a great pad level and

348
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 7: I think he has really good contact balance. That's the

349
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 7: one thing that jumps out to me. It's really got

350
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 7: to be a team tackling mentality. You know, you got

351
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 7: to clamp the guy because you see guys sliding off him.

352
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 7: You can't just go throw in there and cut tackling.

353
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 7: It ain't gonna work against this guy. And he's had

354
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 7: a lot of runs where you look at him this

355
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 7: year and obviously through college, it's impressive. So I'm not

356
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 7: shocked that they put a you know, a load on him,

357
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 7: ask him to carry the load because he's a tough,

358
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 7: physical kid.

359
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 6: Clicked on third down two games to force three out

360
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 6: of twenty two.

361
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 7: I think anything a lot Like you were asking about

362
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 7: your self, scout and all that, and as the season

363
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 7: goes on, you're constantly looking at those things and what

364
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 7: are we good at, where can we take advantage of it?

365
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 7: I talked about I think the week before maybe when

366
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 7: we play Kansas City, we had a lot of third

367
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 7: and two situations in that game. There was maybe five

368
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 7: of them, I think third and two's and it being

369
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 7: really more third and defensively manageable situations is critical. So

370
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,479
Speaker 7: winning first down, wanting to get back on track situations,

371
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 7: getting yourself to an advantageous position on third down, and competing.

372
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 7: I know we may not have had a ton of

373
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 7: production in terms of sacks and the rush, but guys

374
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 7: have gotten a bunch of hits on the quarterback and

375
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 7: I think that's changed some of the trajectory as some

376
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 7: of the throws on third down as well.

377
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 5: So really just rushing coverage working together.

378
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 11: What has been a challenge with the sacks or is

379
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 11: other concern?

380
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 5: I wouldn't say it's a concern.

381
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 7: It's something you're always working at and part of what

382
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 7: we were looking at during turing the break. You know,

383
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 7: how we can get better there, how we can generate

384
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 7: more pressure. I think people have said, like we've had

385
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 7: a bunch of pressures. Yeah, that's great, But at the

386
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 7: end of the day, I agree. You want to get production,

387
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 7: you want to get sacks, want to get guys on

388
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 7: the ground, and that's really just working at it. I

389
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 7: think our guys are doing a really good job of

390
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 7: being aware of where we can get better with that.

391
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 7: You know, where we can finish getting a guy in

392
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,239
Speaker 7: the grasp and finally, you know, getting them down on

393
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 7: the ground, So that's certainly a point of emphasis for

394
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 7: us and something we're working our ass off on.

395
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 5: He's been doing a good job. Man, He's a physical dude.

396
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 7: I know I've said that about him before, but he

397
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 7: gives you a presence in there in the interior, you know,

398
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 7: in terms of especially in their early down run game.

399
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 5: I think he's done a good job. And I thought

400
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 5: he did a pretty.

401
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 7: Good job overall in the past game and the early

402
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 7: down stuff the other day, made some open field tackles

403
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 7: that his break drive technique was pretty dang good when

404
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 7: the quarterback was taking his front of end.

405
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 5: Off the ball and all that stuff.

406
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 7: So he showed up in a bunch of ways for us,

407
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,239
Speaker 7: and I think he's continue to progress for us.

408
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 5: So I think he's done a good job. Great.

409
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 6: Cool, Yeah, I think we all do it in five.

410
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

411
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: I hope you guys did that.

412
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 9: Yeah, great, Just you know, how do you sort of

413
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 9: get the get the run game sort of going again.

414
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 2: Really goes back to the same things Liam's probably talked

415
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 2: about since the spring, and we've talked about since the spring.

416
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 2: It's going to take all eleven and really more than that,

417
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: because it's players and coaches included. So it's a commitment

418
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 2: to the way we practice, the way we prepare, the

419
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 2: way we gain plan, the way we approach our technique

420
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 2: and fundamentals. So it's going to take everybody, all position groups,

421
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 2: all coaches to just commit to doing the things we

422
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 2: do at a high level. And then it's gonna take

423
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 2: us as coaches to try to find those things we

424
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 2: do best and focus more on those, and find new

425
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: and creative ways to do things that are similar, things

426
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 2: that fit within what we do well, and use those

427
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 2: on Sunday.

428
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 3: The things you said about is not always money. Where

429
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 3: do you think they're at right now? To the last

430
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 3: couple of probably workt the offensive performances you wanted, but

431
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 3: as it's still been pretty that set of growth, that's

432
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 3: one disease.

433
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 11: I think in areas now.

434
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 2: It didn't show in the last games of the last

435
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 2: two games from a final result or in total, but

436
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: I think there are pieces that you can see from

437
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: certain individuals, certain groups, or at certain.

438
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 11: Times in the game of progress.

439
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 2: And I think what we ultimately have to get to

440
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 2: is putting all those things together where you don't always

441
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 2: have time to wait for everything to piece together perfectly.

442
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 11: In some games, it's not going to all fit together perfectly.

443
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 2: Where it just so happens that a guy misses a

444
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 2: play on one play and another guy missed a play

445
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 2: on another player, we have put the guys in a

446
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 2: bad situation on one play, and it kind of adds

447
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 2: up to a negative result. But the more consistent we

448
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 2: can be in terms of when guys are on schedule

449
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: doing the things that they're supposed to be doing on

450
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 2: their assignments, on their tasks, on their technique and fundamentals,

451
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 2: the more likely we are to be able to put

452
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 2: together positive drives, and then positive drives turn into positive games.

453
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 2: So I do think that guys are making progress. I

454
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 2: think we need to continue to keep working it and

455
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 2: continue to make that progress and keep pushing it and

456
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 2: keep having a sense of urgency to get all eleven

457
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 2: playing well together at the same time, and that will

458
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 2: ultimately drive that result.

459
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 8: Of like Overully forces season, getting to know these guys

460
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 8: still where you figure out this guy Audio is really

461
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 8: good at something that we found out he's actually really

462
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 8: good at this shift rolls a.

463
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 2: Little, absolutely, absolutely, and I think we're moving closer and

464
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 2: closer to that even over the course of the spring,

465
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 2: things change and evolve because you're finding out what routes

466
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 2: are guy's good at, what blocks a certain offensive lineman

467
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,199
Speaker 2: is good at. And then you get into the games

468
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 2: and you get more live action, full speed reps against

469
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 2: different competition, against different schemes, and you find out what

470
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 2: our guys are good at, what schemes, our guys are

471
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,239
Speaker 2: good at, what formations, personnel groups, shifts, motions, all of

472
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 2: those things. And the more we do of that, the

473
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 2: more these guys grow together learning how to play together,

474
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 2: so they get better playing together, and we get better

475
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 2: at game planning for them. So there's a whole bunch

476
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 2: of things that hopefully we continue to improve if we

477
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 2: all learn, continue to learn each other and learn what

478
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 2: we're all good at.

479
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 6: Heiy grant you guys get into this professional coach guys

480
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 6: and help them improve. How have you found that spot

481
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 6: as a coordinator where if that's your role, but you're

482
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 6: also still able to get on the grass and help guys.

483
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great question because that's certainly been a

484
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 2: learning process for me, and I'm sure everybody goes through

485
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 2: the same thing where you're so used to working on

486
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 2: the day to day with just one position group or

487
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 2: one specific player or one group of guys, and you

488
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 2: kind of get into the routine of just working with

489
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 2: those guys every day and Tuesday I do this, and

490
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 2: Wednesday I do this, and Thursday I do this. But

491
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 2: taking this role and having to work with different guys

492
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 2: at different times based on what's need and having to

493
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 2: adapt to the different situations something that I've continued to

494
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 2: try to evolve over the course of the year, and

495
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 2: being flexible and adaptable, like I said, to be able

496
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: to help whoever needs it, wherever I'm needed, where I'm

497
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 2: most useful.

498
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 11: It's been a lot of.

499
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 2: Fun being able to get to work with the different guys,

500
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,719
Speaker 2: though in a more expanded capacity, where previously you may

501
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 2: only work with the offensive line in small, small situations, like,

502
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 2: for example, if you're working with quarterbacks, you might only

503
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 2: work with the offensive line where you're talking about protections,

504
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 2: but you don't really get to talking about the run

505
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 2: game that much. It's been a lot of fun to

506
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 2: be able to talk to each group about all different

507
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: phases of the offensive game. So I've loved that element

508
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 2: of it. You lose a little bit of the one

509
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 2: on one or individual time that you love, But what

510
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 2: you get back the ability to work with truly everybody

511
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 2: across the offense. What stood out to you about Travis

512
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 2: or his performance on off Well, the great part about

513
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 2: it was you see, first and foremost the effort and

514
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 2: the resiliency. We're down, things aren't going well for the team,

515
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 2: and he's in there still playing as hard as he

516
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 2: can doing his job, competing, attacking the ball, attacking the

517
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 2: run game, attack in the pass game. So that's first

518
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: and foremost what stands out for you, and we appreciate that,

519
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,479
Speaker 2: and that's really who we want to be as an

520
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 2: offense from that identity standpoint of the way we play

521
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 2: the game. Then you see his ability to make plays,

522
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 2: make things happen after the catch, has a great understanding

523
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 2: of space and defense and where guys are around him,

524
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 2: can make guys, can find lanes to run, can find

525
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 2: lanes to get open in the past game. And then

526
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 2: his ability to make plays on the ball. When you

527
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 2: throw the ball and put the ball in the air,

528
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 2: you feel great about his ability to track it, go

529
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 2: up and get the ball and then make something happen

530
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 2: after the Fatcason, It's still he's still working hard with

531
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 2: those guys out there. It's been good to see him

532
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 2: continue to progress and get some opportunities here in that

533
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 2: practice to go in there with that group. I think

534
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 2: that one of the big things for him coming back

535
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 2: is being a rookie already there is a learning curve

536
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 2: not only of the offense, but learning to play with

537
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 2: the guys around you. Offensive line is such a codependent

538
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 2: position where you need to be able to work with.

539
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 2: If I'm at guard, the tackle, if I'm at tackle

540
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 2: the guard, if I'm at center, I'm working basically with everybody.

541
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 2: So him learning the way those guys communicate, those guys work,

542
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 2: the way they take their footworker, they take their past

543
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 2: sets is such a huge part of his progress, and

544
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 2: I think as we are able to continue to get

545
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 2: him back, that will continue to grow and grow, and

546
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 2: that will help his ability to grow not only as

547
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 2: a player, but with this unit or this group, this

548
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 2: offensive line group, specifically.

549
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 9: An individual player like Max Crosby sort of alter how

550
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 9: he a game A ton a ton He's a guy

551
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 9: I probably have said this for probably one or two

552
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 9: players each week, but he's another guy who can impact

553
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 9: every single play.

554
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 11: He's all over the field. You see the effort.

555
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 2: You see him in the past game effect in the

556
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 2: quarterback or affecting the ball, tipping up, and he's i

557
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 2: mean making plays on the ball. You see him in

558
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 2: the run game, plays blocks in a bunch of different

559
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 2: ways and has a great way of finding his way

560
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 2: to the ball. He's never out of the play. So

561
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 2: he's a guy that likes some of these other guys.

562
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 2: Even though he might be on one side on one play,

563
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 2: on another side on another places to one side, you

564
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 2: have to really account for him across the entire offensive

565
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 2: play because even if he's on the left, he could

566
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 2: be making plays on the right. He's on the right,

567
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: he's making plays on the left. So his effort, his range,

568
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 2: and his ability make it make it a challenge to

569
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 2: attack a faster start. Well, I think, like like we

570
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,679
Speaker 2: talked about the run game, it starts with how we

571
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 2: prepare and how we practice.

572
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 11: And making sure that we things that we feel really.

573
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 2: Confident and really good about, and then putting those together

574
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 2: in a sequence where we're able to go out there

575
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 2: and execute and stay on track. I'm sure Liam talked

576
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 2: about it a little bit, where the results of the

577
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 2: offense when we're off schedule and is it's first and

578
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 2: twenty make it a real challenge on the play caller

579
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 2: to find something to go to at that point and

580
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 2: to stick with whatever plan you may have set out.

581
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: Now.

582
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 2: You try to prepare for everything, but if you have

583
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 2: repeated penalties or repeated negative plays, it makes it much

584
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 2: more difficult to stick to that plan. So if we're

585
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 2: able to execute those things early at a high level,

586
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 2: I think that will pay dividends throughout not only that drive,

587
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 2: but throughout the rest of the game, because you're able

588
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 2: to set up sequences of plays, sequences of drives, and

589
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 2: different things that you want to get to that you

590
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 2: might not get to when you're always behind the changes

591
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 2: or off schedule.

592
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 8: There's certain guys that you also learned what payed early

593
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 8: in the game to help and get going earlier.

594
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 11: I think so.

595
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: I think that that's always part of the process on

596
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,959
Speaker 2: figuring out what guys do well earlier. Excuse me, what

597
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 2: guys really need early to do well through the rest

598
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 2: of the game. I suppose what I'm trying to say,

599
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 2: like you're saying, certain guys get into certain situations and

600
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 2: they feel really comfortable with certain schemes or certain alignments

601
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 2: or certain spots on the field, and if you can

602
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 2: get them into that, that gets guys into a rhythm.

603
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: As much as people like to say, you know, there's

604
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 2: not really such a thing as getting into the zone

605
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 2: or getting into you know, certain feeling like they're in

606
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 2: that state where like they can't miss. We want to

607
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 2: get them into that true flow as much as possible.

608
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 2: So what's the way to get that. It's it's getting

609
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 2: them do something they do well, getting them to do

610
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 2: something they're comfortable with or have confidence that they're gonna

611
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 2: be able to go out there and execute correctly.

612
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: Thanks
