1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Uh, Mark's my guy. Where is Mike?

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 2: I don't want to see him look excited to get

3
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 2: back out here. The guys are working hard, I know

4
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 2: a lot of times. You know, everyone wants to see

5
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,720
Speaker 2: everyone get better every day. But remember, it's just not

6
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 2: a straight shot to being a good football team. It's

7
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 2: a process which we have been preaching for a long time.

8
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 2: One thing I will say is, and this has been

9
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: you know, historically, the defense will always be ahead of

10
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 2: the offense. The defense will always be ahead of the offense. Now,

11
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 2: the offense, obviously they're still gelling together. And we have

12
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: a lot of guys on defense that already know the scheme.

13
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 2: So you know, it's hard to jump to conclusions.

14
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: You know, are these guys gonna be good? Are they bad? Like?

15
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, And I don't think you guys know either.

16
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 2: I don't even think you know the guy the coaches

17
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 2: out there know. But one thing I will say, it's

18
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 2: about competition, and it's about getting better, uh, each and

19
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 2: every day, not only on the field, but also off

20
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 2: the field.

21
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 3: You were walking up Sorry, yeah feel the h is

22
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 3: tweeted out that the team in Jabriel Peppers are finalizing

23
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: a three year extension.

24
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 4: Just want to see if you could confirm that for us.

25
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't confirm it. I'm the head coach. I

26
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: can confirm it, all right, So hey, I will say this.

27
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 2: I will say this. I'll confirm it. But I am

28
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: very happy, uh, you know, for Peppers and for his family,

29
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: and also for our team and organization. He really embodies

30
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 2: everything that we want on the field. You know, he's

31
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: very selfless. He's out there flying around all the time,

32
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: and it's good to get that deal done.

33
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: How much do you enjoy his passion? I love it.

34
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: I love it. I will be honest with you.

35
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: When he first got here, it was a little bit

36
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 2: much for me, you know, a little bit much for me.

37
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: But you know, I do appreciate it. You know.

38
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 2: He brings that passion, he brings that energy each and

39
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: every day, and he's one of our best communicators on

40
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 2: defense along with Doug. And I feel pretty I feel

41
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: very good about that safety room as a whole.

42
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 5: On the flip side of that, there was an incident,

43
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 5: not an incident, but but Matthew Juno was with us

44
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 5: the other day and he expressed a level of dissatisfaction

45
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 5: with the contract. I know you've addressed it earlier in camp,

46
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 5: but do you have anything new to add in the

47
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 5: wake away.

48
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: Look, we're still you know, we're still kind of working

49
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: through that stuff. Judean is a huge piece of the puzzle.

50
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 2: He's another guy who you know, he brings leadership, he

51
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 2: brings obviously the playmaking ability, but also just that energy

52
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 2: of wanting to go out there and dominate the man.

53
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: Across from him. So, you know, hopefully we get something done.

54
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 2: He understands the business side of it as well, and

55
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 2: hopefully he understands that we really like him. You know,

56
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: we really like him as a player and as a person.

57
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: Want the mire.

58
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 6: Participated in day one yesterday, we didn't see him until

59
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 6: midway through, came up from the backfield. Didn't seem to

60
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 6: do anything.

61
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: Is that contract related?

62
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 2: No, not at all, not at all. It has nothing

63
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: to do with the contract. He had a little bit

64
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 2: of tightness. But he's another guy who, you know, you

65
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 2: want to reward the players that embody or encompass what

66
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: we're trying to create here from a cultural perspective, and

67
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 2: also you know, at the end of the day, it's

68
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: all about wins and losses, and he helps with that.

69
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,839
Speaker 6: Drake is a couple of times during practice and team

70
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 6: and Steven on seven where he takes off running and

71
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 6: it's it just seems like a quick decision. Do you

72
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 6: like that or would you prefer him to stand in there,

73
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 6: even if it's going to be like an airsack and

74
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 6: just go through your reads and make a throw.

75
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

76
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 2: Look, all those guys are are taught and told to

77
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: continue with the play. When you look at the good offenses,

78
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 2: you know, take Casey for example. You know they have

79
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: the what's on the piece of paper, but a lot

80
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 2: of that stuff is just improvisation on the field and

81
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 2: so being able to continue that play, you know, you

82
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 2: never know what's going to happen. You could have a

83
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: free runner, he misses the sack and now everyone has

84
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: to get to a spot where you can find him.

85
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: You know, it's not just Drake, I would say that

86
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: entire quarterback room. They operate under the same same rules.

87
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 1: What you said before.

88
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 3: About the offense, How do you feel where they're at

89
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 3: just coming back from the summer and picking up where.

90
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 1: You try to lie. I feel good. I feel good

91
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: about it. You know.

92
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 2: Obviously Jacoby leading the way there at quarterback, he's been

93
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: in the schame before, and he's really displayed a lot

94
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: of leadership not only in the quarterback room, but also

95
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: just amongst the entire offense because he is familiar with

96
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: the scheme.

97
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: But I'm I'm I'm happy where they are.

98
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: They're out here, they're working hard, and that's really all

99
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: you can ask for and the you know, the progress

100
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: will continue to go.

101
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: Question a long way from any competitive games. Were contacts

102
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 3: involved in any of that? But will you encourage Drake

103
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: to run? How do you feel about that as a

104
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: as a head coach where you know, a guy who's

105
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: playing the most important position on the field might be

106
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 3: putting himself in harm's way, but it is one of

107
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: his strengths.

108
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: That's how do you feel about that? To me?

109
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 2: Especially now early in training camp, it's really about the progressions. Right,

110
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: your reads, you read left or right, or you read

111
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: the single. You know, those are the most important things.

112
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 2: With that being said, you know, as we continue to go,

113
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 2: like all right, take off and let those guys kind

114
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 2: of freestyle, and you know there are offenses. Like I

115
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 2: said earlier that it's very tough for a defense when

116
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: you're you're trying to you know, anticipate the route concept

117
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 2: or the offensive concept, but then all of a sudden,

118
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 2: the quarterbacks outside the pocket, and so those are things

119
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: that will happen down the line.

120
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: Ladies first, ladies, first.

121
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 7: Team activities. Can you just provide a little detail on

122
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 7: why that is?

123
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 2: And kind of he's kind of he's kind of working

124
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 2: through something right now, but nothing serious, so you know,

125
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 2: day to day, all right, Yeah, sticking with the same rotation.

126
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 2: You know, I think all those guys are getting, you know,

127
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 2: good reps. But at the same time, I would say

128
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 2: it's about the quality of the reps, not the actual count.

129
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 2: You know, I'll let you guys count the reps.

130
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: I'm taking reps before yesterday. And is that part of that?

131
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, continue, I guess yeah, Look that will you know,

132
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 2: I won't say it will continue. You know sometimes, you know,

133
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 2: maybe you have Joe get more reps, Maybe you have

134
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 2: Zappi you get more reps.

135
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: The one person I.

136
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 2: Would say is gonna get a lot of reps is

137
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 2: you know, obviously Jacobe knows the offense, but Drake is

138
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 2: gonna have an opportunity to go out there and compete. Look,

139
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: all four of those quarterbacks do have a skill set

140
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 2: that that we like, we'll just see how it plays out.

141
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,679
Speaker 4: To the players have talked a little bit about the rotation.

142
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 4: Every day is going to be different on that offensive line.

143
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 4: Kind of what you're looking for there and what's that

144
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 4: progression gonna be like in your mind.

145
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 1: As you go forward.

146
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I'll just say this with the offensive

147
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: line that the best five, right, the best five will

148
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 2: play now, not gonna get into who's playing guard, who's

149
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 2: playing tackle, But as we continue to go, you know,

150
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 2: throughout training camp and start to put on the pads,

151
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: we're gonna put the best five out there.

152
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 3: Yesterday, you have a players lounge in there, pull table

153
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 3: some games. Obviously, you came up in an environment when

154
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 3: you're here to work and work only.

155
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 5: What was the reason behind that change for you?

156
00:05:59,160 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: Yeah?

157
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 2: To me, it's a look, this is their place, and

158
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 2: that's their lounge, and that's their locker room. I think

159
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: it's important that you have those spaces. One thing I've

160
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 2: noticed over the past, let's say, you know, five years,

161
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 2: is a lot of times when guys get a break,

162
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: they just go into their locker and they get on

163
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 2: their phone. They're scrolling through social media and there's really

164
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 2: no interaction, and I thought it was important, I should say,

165
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 2: we thought it was important that those guys had a

166
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: safe space to go and really like that's also a

167
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 2: time where they build camaraderie. You should see some of

168
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: the ping pong games in there, or some of the

169
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 2: you know, some of the even the PlayStation you know,

170
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 2: we have a PlayStation Xbox in there as well. But

171
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: it's really to like bring these guys closer together and

172
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: have those guys want to be here. These days can

173
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,799
Speaker 2: be long, but we just thought it would be important

174
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 2: for those guys to have that space. I don't know,

175
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: because you know, just like I told you, that's the

176
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 2: player of space.

177
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: And I'm a coach, so I don't go in there.

178
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: I don't go in there.

179
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 2: But Goskowski used to be a great It used to

180
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 2: be a great ping pong player.

181
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: Nah.

182
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: Nah, we work. We work before training camp.

183
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,159
Speaker 4: A couple weeks before, I think a bunch of receivers

184
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 4: and some quarterbacks got together on their own to frow.

185
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: Did you know that they were going to do that

186
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: in their off time? Yeah, you know, I don't know.

187
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: They put it together.

188
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 2: They you know, obviously they want to get those extra

189
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 2: reps in to make sure everyone's on the same page.

190
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: And as they continue to learn and grow throughout the

191
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: you know, throughout the playbook. Let me say, then their

192
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: real true athleticism can start the show.

193
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: And those reps are important.

194
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 2: And once again I'll go back to what I say

195
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 2: every day is the reps out here are one thing,

196
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: but there are also the mental reps in the classroom,

197
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 2: and there are also those walkthrough reps that you spoke about.

198
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: Like to see them having that sort of I love

199
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: to hear it. I just learned that from you, so

200
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: I love to hear it.

201
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 5: Madden ratings.

202
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: When you were a player, what was your highest team?

203
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 2: I think my highest was like a ninety one or

204
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 2: something like that was in the nineties. I always bust

205
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 2: these guys, you know, it's like, oh man, you know,

206
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: they get so upset when Madden gives them like an

207
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 2: eighty two or something like that. It's fun though, because

208
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,559
Speaker 2: really we all grew up wanting to be on that game,

209
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 2: and you know, we became huge fans of other teams

210
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 2: by playing the game. You always want to get the team, so,

211
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 2: you know, I think it's I think it's fun and

212
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 2: I think Madden then EA sports, they they understand and

213
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: they're kind of capitalized on it a little bit.

214
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 3: I'm serious, just because obviously the first time in this

215
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 3: role when you have something like what's going on with

216
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 3: with Juda on here and he's here talking to us

217
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 3: from Moost ten minutes the other day about his contractor

218
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 3: do you worry at all about his concerns or his

219
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 3: disgruntled nature if if that's a way to describe it

220
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 3: right now, it might impact others on the team.

221
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: You know, we have a great relationship. But I hate

222
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: that you use the word disgruntled because I would say

223
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 2: he's out here, He's out here working every day. His

224
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: attitude is great in the classroom, his attitude is great

225
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 2: on the field, and you gotta see him flying around here.

226
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 2: Obviously there is a business component, uh to this, to

227
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 2: this sport, and he understands that.

228
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 1: You know, we want him here.

229
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: He's a very good player for us and he does

230
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 2: everything that we want him to do.

231
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: So hopefully it works out. Undermining at all.

232
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 3: To people in leadership positions, wh there's ju or Elliott

233
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 3: to be talking about it in that way at this point,

234
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 3: so sorry, does it does it undermine it one's authority?

235
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 3: For both you and Elliott are new positions right now,

236
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 3: and he seems to be very open that we're just

237
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 3: not used to that.

238
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: No, no, look, I'm good with it. I don't want

239
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 2: to put a cap on. You know, if the guy

240
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 2: feels a certain type of way, he has that privilege

241
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 2: to come out here and tell you guys how he feels.

242
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: That's I mean, I have to respect it no matter what.

243
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: At some point in time, there's gonna be a player

244
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 2: that comes up here and says, you know what, I

245
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,719
Speaker 2: hate Coach Jirot, I hate Mayo, and look, that's how

246
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 2: they feel, and I respect that. And you know, I

247
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: know we want to keep as much stuff, you know,

248
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: in house, but there will be times where they come

249
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: out here and express themselves and I think it's good. Look,

250
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: they listen to the interview here, and I listen to

251
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: their interviews as well. Like I'm not talking to you guys,

252
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 2: I'm talking to the players, really, and that's how I

253
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: think about it. So, you know, as the season continues

254
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: to progress, I want the relationship with the media from

255
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 2: the coach's perspective and also from the player's perspective, to

256
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: be a good relationship. And I'm not saying to write

257
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 2: all the positive articles, like you write your opinion, that's

258
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: what you're paid for.

259
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 3: Jealous or nb of seeing some of the other players

260
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 3: in the team getting new contracts.

261
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 4: Are you guys cognisant of that during the offseason when

262
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 4: deciding who depend pay and how would play in the

263
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 4: locker room?

264
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 2: You know, honestly, Like, I mean, he's entitled to feel

265
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: that way. And once again, you know, we always talk

266
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 2: about checking the ego at the door and things like that,

267
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 2: but they wouldn't even be here without some type of ego,

268
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 2: And so I understand where he's coming from there. At

269
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 2: the same time, we're gonna do what's best for the

270
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 2: organization and really what's best for the players to.

271
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 7: Yea, we saw Marcus Jones and Christian Gonzales kind of

272
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 7: taking some reps during wide receiver drills yesterday. Is that

273
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 7: like a plan going into the season, Like, what kind

274
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 7: of what's the thought process there?

275
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 1: That's too early to tail right now.

276
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 2: What I will say is, you know, the fundamental of

277
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: catching the ball, whether you play offense or defense, is

278
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 2: something that those guys will continuously work on.

279
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 4: When it comes to the offensive line, players have just

280
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 4: harped on consistency and chemistry being next to the same guys.

281
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 4: So how do you balance as a coaching staff wanting

282
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 4: guys to be comfortable with who they're next to with

283
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 4: also the competition especially we've seen a right tackle in

284
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 4: one new guys home.

285
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, as we continue to progress through camp, obviously we'll

286
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 2: start to and now see how it kind of takes

287
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 2: shape At this given time, though, I would say, you know,

288
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 2: those guys are willing to like swing to any side

289
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 2: that we ask them, knowing that we're gonna put the

290
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 2: best vive out there, and that's part of the competition.

291
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: We saw playing a lot more free safety last year.

292
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 6: How do you think that win and do you think

293
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 6: that can improve with moving forward.

294
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: Down Look, Honestly, when I look at our safety room,

295
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: I see a room that is full of playmakers, a

296
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: room that you know, there are some similarities as far

297
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 2: as skill set, but there are also things that each

298
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: one does just a little bit better than the other.

299
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 2: We always talk about versatility and being able to move

300
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 2: to different spots, whether it's strong safety or free safety,

301
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it. I think that entire

302
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: room can do pretty much both of those. Is very

303
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 2: important look, he's one of those guys that you know,

304
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 2: if he gets a one on one pass rush, he's

305
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: probably gonna win. And its our job as coaches to

306
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 2: put him in a position to go out there and

307
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 2: make those plays.

308
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 1: Appreciate you, guys,
