Honestly, 27 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 3: it's a we're in our installation phase. It's it's the 28 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: off season, it's ota, so we're going to keep the 29 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 3: focus there. Once you get into training camp, of course 30 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 3: you're getting ready to play games and ultimately getting ready 31 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 3: for playing the season, but right now that's not our focus. 32 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 7: So do you think that changes, Like they want a 33 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 7: training camp, Kevin, that you get back into rotation means 34 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 7: more you have a depth chart in. 35 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,919 Speaker 2: Your Yeah, I think we're using this off season. 36 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 3: I think this is the we got one more practice 37 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 3: to go, so we'll use all these practices like we 38 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: have for every position, to learn about our players and 39 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 3: learn what guys do best and those type of things. 40 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, like for a wide receiver, want to 41 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 3: find out what routes he's comfortable with. For the quarterbacks, 42 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 3: find out what concepts they're comfortable with. So that's really 43 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: what this off season has been about. Of Course, your 44 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 3: mentality changes a little bit as you get into training camp, 45 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 3: but that's really not our focus right now. 46 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 8: Kevin Dylan was talking initially about trying to fight the 47 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 8: Amazon lifestyle or the Amazon lifestyle. 48 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 6: I think he said, where we all just expect everything. 49 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: To happen in the and be with your feed are 50 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 3: given the way like coverage. 51 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 9: Has changed with the league since you've been like, how 52 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 9: can you empathize with these guys who are trying to 53 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,679 Speaker 9: They just have more to battle on that front. 54 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 4: As they go through a composition than maybe. 55 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 3: Guys used to. Pat Yeah, I think probably the biggest 56 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 3: difference nowadays is social media. I would expect to listen. 57 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: The news cycle is three and sixty five days a year, 58 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 3: and there's a lot of content and there's a lot 59 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 3: of hours to fill, as you guys all well know. 60 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 3: So we and also we understand how popular our sport is, 61 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,679 Speaker 3: how interested our fans are in our sports, so we 62 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 3: embrace that. 63 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 2: We like that part. 64 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 3: Having said that, once we get inside the building, we 65 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: really do focus on where our feet are.

But also, uh, we we try 177 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 3: to have fun while we're there while we're in there 178 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 3: as well. 179 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 15: So why did you do that? 180 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: We are start We started to introduce some two minute 181 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 3: into the sis into the uh offense and defense last 182 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 3: week and then started to work a little bit today. 183 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 5: What do you what do you look for in the 184 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 5: quarterbacks on differently to make a higher uh like keeping 185 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 5: the mets all. 186 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 3: That, Cause, Yeah, we've done a lot of red zone period, uh, 187 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 3: for a bunch of different reasons. Number one, it's so important, 188 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 3: uh Obviously it's a scoring portion of our field. But 189 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 3: number two, it's a nice way to take care of legs. 190 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: So if you do a tight a red zone drill 191 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 3: or you're not running fifty yards if you will, so 192 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 3: you try to incorporate some red zone into what we do. 193 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 3: But the game does change down there. The field becomes 194 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 3: wider than it is long, a lot of those windows 195 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 3: become extremely tight. Obviously we're not working the run game 196 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 3: right now, but in the run game, those running backs 197 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 3: have to sometimes bring their own blocker. There's not that 198 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 3: we're gonna have a safety that we can't block. So 199 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 3: the game really does change down there. 200 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: Installs. 201 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 9: How many installs offer and stan think that. 202 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 3: You've gotten so far, we've gotten through the whole system, 203 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 3: which for us essentially amounts to about seven installs. 204 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: So that's about normal. 205 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 3: That's about normal. Yeah, games, you know, he's had a sorry, 206 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 3: he's had a really strong spring. Is here all the 207 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 3: time working on his body. Very utilian player can line 208 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 3: up in multiple positions, which I think is valuable. 209 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 2: And then he showed up. 210 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 3: He's caught the ball well, and the you know, the 211 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,719 Speaker 3: quarterbacks like how he gets open.

Uh, they seem to be pretty comfortable. 279 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 17: They've they've been able to relax themselves, come out here 280 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 17: and have good practices. Find completions uh there that they're 281 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 17: they're mostly not forcing the ball and things like that. 282 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 17: You know, maybe some of the times those completions, maybe 283 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 17: they could have put the ball somewhere else. But I 284 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 17: think for young quarterbacks to be able to to not 285 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 17: try to force things and and sometimes just take the 286 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 17: check down and take the low guy can show a 287 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 17: lot of growth. 288 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 15: It can can show some maturity.

I 297 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 17: think with the type of zone run game that we 298 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 17: do in this offense and how that's paired with the 299 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 17: with the passing, you know, with our play action game, 300 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 17: I do think it's just good stuff, you know.

We 512 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 17: were nothing in We were you know, in nothing but 513 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 17: shotgun and pretty much all no huddle. But back then 514 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 17: you were kind of like in these camps, you were 515 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 17: forced like coaches really forced you to kind of adapt. 516 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 17: And these days it's kind of, you know, more of 517 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 17: that college style is kind of leaked into the NFL 518 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 17: a little bit, but you hit certain teams where you're 519 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 17: still doing those things, and I think it's it's questions 520 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 17: related to that, you know, uh, call and plays, the 521 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 17: bulk of the like the volume of the offense. 522 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 15: How do you kind of manage those things? And you know, 523 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 15: stuff like that. 524 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 12: Under center shotgun. 525 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 17: I think everybody likes being a shotgun, but I I 526 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 17: love being able to go under center in this league 527 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 17: because you cannot live in the drop back world. 528 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 15: I don't care who you are, you know. 529 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 17: Because even the guys that are in shotgun all the time, 530 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 17: they're doing RPOs and they're doing other things to kind 531 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 17: of mix and match and get easy completions and things 532 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 17: like that. 533 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 15: If you're just living in three. 534 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 17: Step and five step drops and you're letting the defensive 535 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 17: line pin their years back and come back. 536 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 15: You're gonna have a tough time. So I love the 537 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 15: fact that we can go under center and kind of 538 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 15: marry the run in the past. I think that's just huge. 539 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 17: I think teams do it in different ways, and for us, 540 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 17: it's just getting under center a little bit, and I 541 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 17: love it. 542 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 8: At least they don't have two days. 543 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 15: Every now and then those stories come up. I remind 544 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 15: them of that. 545 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 17: My first three years before that CBA hit and John 546 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 17: ran hard camps as it was. 547 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 15: I think he learned from Andy Reid. 548 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 17: I told him we had one hundred and ten hundred 549 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 17: and twenty plays scripted. We would runt a two minute 550 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 17: period and it'd be like ones, twos threes, ones, twos threes, 551 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 17: all right, twos, let's go, you get one more. And 552 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 17: it was like whoa, Like we just did a forty 553 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 17: five minute, two minute period, and like, listen when I'm 554 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 17: telling the stories, of course I. 555 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 15: Am, I embellish a little bit. 556 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 17: I probably had a half hour to each practice but 557 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 17: it was different, you know. And the difference was that 558 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 17: even if even when it got easier in like eleven, 559 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 17: twenty eleven, I think everybody that it was playing at 560 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 17: that point had been through two days at some point 561 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 17: in their life. Guys that come in the NFL now 562 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 17: have never done it. They've never done it. We're out 563 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,719 Speaker 17: there for an hour and fifteen minutes, and guys think 564 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 17: it's hard, you know, like our OTA's were over two 565 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,239 Speaker 17: hours for sure in Baltimore, you know, like when I 566 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 17: was younger. Yeah, pre pre embellishing. I'm not embellishing on that. 567 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 17: It was legit. When in twenty eleven we came back 568 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 17: from the CBA and you could you could do a 569 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 17: max of three hours on the field, we did a 570 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 17: max of three hours. We did that three hours on 571 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 17: the field of horn blue. No no, no stretch of 572 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 17: horn blue. We all we were all ran on the 573 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 17: field and then the horn blew at the end of 574 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 17: practice and we all ran off. 575 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 15: And it just doesn't it's not like that anymore. 576 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 17: I do tell the guys, I do tell the guys. 577 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 17: I don't want to go back to that, but there 578 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 17: is value in doing that every now and then.
