Speaker 1: Yeah, Sam Bradford making the reds in the progressions in
Speaker 1: the way that you'd like him too. Is that something
Speaker 1: that kind of has to come to time in this case?
Speaker 1: Now Sam's making the reads in the progressions, going through
Speaker 1: what he has to do from in terms of ken
Speaker 1: from one to two to three. Here's a sprained knee.
Speaker 1: So well, we're evaluating him this week in terms of
Speaker 1: what he can do and kent do. But Grande, he
Speaker 1: was I'm unaware of any reports. I haven't talked to
Speaker 1: Chris about that. I can check on that, but I
Speaker 1: know he has a sprain knee and I'm gonna see
Speaker 1: what what goes on with that week. No, I don't
Speaker 1: know that either. I just know he's he's got a
Speaker 1: sprain knee. I don't I don't know if he'll be
Speaker 1: out this week into the decision, will leave for New
Speaker 1: Yorker a couple of days or eli? Is that all
Speaker 1: just logistics with getting the players in there the complex
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's supposed to be a lot of people
Speaker 1: coming to town this weekend. There's something going on. So
Speaker 1: how does that change anything preparation wise? It's fine, it
Speaker 1: doesn't change anything. We use the Jets facility up there
Speaker 1: to practice. If you work that out now, that would
Speaker 1: be a little dicey. I think if we were reacting
Speaker 1: at the Jets facility, So what's up, We're going up
Speaker 1: to Mamouth Miles also Miles Yea, the legend was going
Speaker 1: back home. So there's players. It seemed to think that
Speaker 1: the Eagles are not that they know the plays, but
Speaker 1: they are predictable in their offense. I've heard a couple
Speaker 1: of players say that, have you seen that you believe that,
Speaker 1: whether it's a snap count, whether it's the limited number
Speaker 1: of play I think we've been varied in our two games,
Speaker 1: and then then through our preseason and everything. We do
Speaker 1: a different job, change informations and things like that. It's
Speaker 1: you know, when you're not successful, I think guys are
Speaker 1: grassman excuses to be honest with. We still need to
Speaker 1: block and tackles. Yeah, and what I'm saying is that
Speaker 1: we need to execute it. I mean we just like
Speaker 1: you know, when the teams in Tampa two they're going
Speaker 1: to slant the three in the seventh technique, and when
Speaker 1: they do it, it's not a surprise to us. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's there's everybody has predictabilities and tendencies going into every game,
Speaker 1: So I think that's just part of the part of
Speaker 1: the game playing. Did say that he hears calling at
Speaker 1: the police? Yeah, I just asked him about that. He
Speaker 1: didn't he he didn't say that to us, So, you know,
Speaker 1: I just asked Josh that do you think they had
Speaker 1: any of our signals? And he said no, So, so,
Speaker 1: so what's he? Where's he? Where's he coming from? I
Speaker 1: don't know. I just asked him a second ago. I said, Josh,
Speaker 1: so you think that they're picking up on things? And
Speaker 1: he said no. So have you heard that before from
Speaker 1: other players as a team, that that they were No.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's certain things that everybody does
Speaker 1: that's predictable from a tendency standpoint. When you line up
Speaker 1: in this formation seventy five percent of the time, you
Speaker 1: do this twenty five percent of the time to do this.
Speaker 1: But there's nothing I don't think anybody does offensively or defensively.
Speaker 1: That's one hundred percent of the time. You know, the
Speaker 1: team you're playing is eighty percent man coverage in this
Speaker 1: look that, but that doesn't mean you're going to get
Speaker 1: man coverage every time. I mean, that's just everybody kind
Speaker 1: of does what they do. There's a certain percentage that
Speaker 1: everybody does what they do. You're not always fifty fifty,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Self scouting in terms of
Speaker 1: like little little tendency guys spend the same amount each week.
Speaker 1: That's the first thing we start talking about. We've self
Speaker 1: scout ourselves and by down and distance, by area on
Speaker 1: the field, be zone, coming out, going in, all that
Speaker 1: other stuff. So everybody who wills ready today, Michael with
Speaker 1: his hamstring, and then um Ceter Thornton and Taylor Hart
Speaker 1: they're both not practicing today. Jeff, What did the Jets
Speaker 1: do defensively that impresses you? Especially in their front four? Well,
Speaker 1: I think they're sound at every level. Sal You know,
Speaker 1: they've got an outstanding secondary, you know with Kramari and
Speaker 1: Revs and gil Christ and prior back there they got
Speaker 1: two really talented insideline backers, and then obviously the front
Speaker 1: you know, with with workers in and Leonard Williams added
Speaker 1: to it, and then you got pace in couples. So
Speaker 1: you know, I think they're sound at every level, you know,
Speaker 1: and and have really good playmakers at every level. But
Speaker 1: the one thing that stands out with them as a
Speaker 1: whole defensively, is just the turnovers that they've created. They've
Speaker 1: created the ten in the first two games of the year,
Speaker 1: so you know that's that's five a game right now.
Speaker 1: And um, they're doing a great job of taking the
Speaker 1: ball away, whether it's from strip, fumbles or interceptions, it's
Speaker 1: a combination of all of them. So um, you know
Speaker 1: they kind of all playing and sync and they're doing
Speaker 1: a really good job. But they're they're talented at all
Speaker 1: three levels on the defensive side of the ball. When
Speaker 1: the team is that aggressive with the takeaways, and you
Speaker 1: can't practice not ter fall over, but it is a
Speaker 1: point of emphasis. How do you go about it? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's always a point emphasis. You know. I think our
Speaker 1: defense has done a good job in terms of going
Speaker 1: for strips and things like that. It's been an emphasis
Speaker 1: for us since last April. So, um, you've got to
Speaker 1: be conscious sick about it because you've got a team
Speaker 1: that's really good at it and will continue to train
Speaker 1: it and drill it. Here in these next couple of days.
Speaker 1: What's the process been like? HA learned that the system
Speaker 1: to Sam's strength, does he have a lot of input
Speaker 1: in that? How do you feel like. I think it's
Speaker 1: the same with every quarterback. You know, you're always getting feedback,
Speaker 1: whether it's Michael or Nick, or Mark or or Sam.
Speaker 1: You know what, they feel more comfortable. One guy likes
Speaker 1: to maybe, you know, throw this route to the left
Speaker 1: better than that guy like to throw that route to
Speaker 1: the left. So, no matter where I've been or whoever
Speaker 1: we've had at quarterback, you've always always taken input from
Speaker 1: those guys. And Sam's a real student of the game,
Speaker 1: spends a lot of time watching take is in this
Speaker 1: building a lot, so um you know, he'll come in
Speaker 1: and sit down a visit with us and talk about
Speaker 1: really situational football, what he's seen on third down, what
Speaker 1: he's seen in the red zone, and then we collaborate
Speaker 1: on that thinking things next center. Do you think he
Speaker 1: had any correlation to him trying to compensate for the
Speaker 1: guys that are next to I think that's a great
Speaker 1: question for Jason. How did you see anything on film
Speaker 1: that makes you believe and that's what he's doing. No,
Speaker 1: what do you said yesterday to us was that there
Speaker 1: were all these things in the game plan that he
Speaker 1: was trying to keep in mind rather than just hitting
Speaker 1: the guy in front of him. How do you address that?
Speaker 1: Do you just simplify what you do this week? It
Speaker 1: just it all depends on who you're playing and what
Speaker 1: they're doing. You know, Dallas was a big movement team
Speaker 1: up front, you know, in terms of moving the three
Speaker 1: and the seven had a lot of tendencies on them
Speaker 1: that he knew when they were in certain coverages and
Speaker 1: certain looks that they're doing. You know, there's a predominant
Speaker 1: amount of time they're going to do that. So that's
Speaker 1: just part of every game plan you go through. You
Speaker 1: don't just say, hey, forget about it, and we know
Speaker 1: they're slanting out of this front and this coverage, but
Speaker 1: let's not talk about it. I mean, you still have
Speaker 1: to address it and present it to himself. Forge he's
Speaker 1: done a good job, I think. The one thing, and
Speaker 1: I don't know if people realize that fits he played
Speaker 1: a lot for Chan when Chan was a head coach
Speaker 1: at Buffalo, So he's just really comfortable. It's not a
Speaker 1: traditional new quarterback new coordinator getting together and where they are.
Speaker 1: I think he's got a a real comfort level with Chan.
Speaker 1: Bob mcnell, our wide receiver coach, is actually on staff
Speaker 1: with them there in Buffalo. So Um had a great
Speaker 1: command of that offense when when he was running up
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, and I think he'd It's probably been the
Speaker 1: easiest transition for him in terms of anybody else because
Speaker 1: he's his familiarity with Chan and what he wants to do,
Speaker 1: how he's gonna call things, and the offense they're running
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, I mean in New York right now is
Speaker 1: similar to the one that Cham was running when they
Speaker 1: were in Buffalo together. So sure do you know Todd
Speaker 1: both much? And is his fingerprints on the Jets improven defense? Yeah,
Speaker 1: his fingerprints are on that. I don't know much. I
Speaker 1: talked to Todd when I first got here. He was
Speaker 1: on his way out, he was headed to Arizona with
Speaker 1: with Bruce, But you know, I know him from just
Speaker 1: a coach of Circle. So he's done a really good
Speaker 1: job in a short amount of time in New York.
Speaker 1: But what he's doing defensively is what he's done, you know,
Speaker 1: similar to the scheme he ran when he was in
Speaker 1: Arizona for those two years and did a really nice
Speaker 1: job with the Arizona defense the last two years, and
Speaker 1: they're running a similar type system. Some of the players
Speaker 1: are slightly different, but it's a similar system in terms
Speaker 1: of what he was doing in the Cardinals. Did you
Speaker 1: have to keep Todd Bowles here? Who was he already doing?
Speaker 1: I talked to him when I first got here sal
Speaker 1: and then Bruce got the job. I think his familiarity
Speaker 1: with Bruce was part of it. But we were gonna
Speaker 1: He had known we were going to interview a couple
Speaker 1: of defensive coordinators. Um but I never got a chance
Speaker 1: to ever get him back here, but I did visit
Speaker 1: with him for a while when I first came first
Speaker 1: got into those first couple of days. This is a
Speaker 1: turnover issue. How much have you addressed that with the
Speaker 1: team this week, especially with your quarterback? I know we
Speaker 1: had a bad staff in one where the intercepts you
Speaker 1: went through the receivers. We addressed it every week, regardless
Speaker 1: of anything. I think. You know we're always trying to
Speaker 1: be zero in the turnover category on the offensive side
Speaker 1: of the ball and create him on the defensive side
Speaker 1: of the ball. So we talk about him all the time.
Speaker 1: We've talked about him since we've been our April twentieth.
Speaker 1: It's been a big emphasis for us both ways. So obviously,
Speaker 1: if if you're losing the turnover battle, um, you know,
Speaker 1: the statistics will tell you, you you know, you don't have
Speaker 1: a real good chance to win of the games. So
Speaker 1: we've it's been a big emphasis for us. This is
Speaker 1: three f four like LU and one run down. They
Speaker 1: strictly two gaping where they allow like someone like wil
Speaker 1: person to kind of kind of treat They do everything,
Speaker 1: so I mean, there's not a I mean they do it.
Speaker 1: You know, Todd runs a very diverse package, so he
Speaker 1: does it all, so they're gonna you'll see all sorts
Speaker 1: of looks out of him in his three down package
Speaker 1: and his four down package. They have a three down
Speaker 1: three linebacker package. They got a lot of different packages
Speaker 1: they're running right now, and they're really spread across the
Speaker 1: board in terms of how they're um deploying that whole thing.
Speaker 1: So it's not there's not one thing where he's just
Speaker 1: sitting in one thing. So Sam was not the number
Speaker 1: four all time in lowest interception percentage before the year began.
Speaker 1: He's got four. Obviously they're not all his fault, but
Speaker 1: they have a couple of work been pretty bad and
Speaker 1: he faults. Why no, I mean, we look at every
Speaker 1: interception individually, so I know two of them are tips
Speaker 1: that went through our hands at and that's not the
Speaker 1: quarterback's fault, and that that's, uh, you know, we gotta
Speaker 1: catchup all when it's down there. I know the one
Speaker 1: on Sean Lee, Shan had his back turned, you know,
Speaker 1: when he released the football and then Sean turn It
Speaker 1: was a hell of heck of a play by Bye
Speaker 1: Sean when you really look at it. But when you
Speaker 1: when you look at that matchup, when you're in the
Speaker 1: end zone and the defender has his back turn, you're
Speaker 1: trying to throw the ball before you know. And and
Speaker 1: the fact that the way if you watch it, especially
Speaker 1: from Sam's u from the behind, when you watch it,
Speaker 1: when you see when he released it, Sean still had
Speaker 1: his back turn, and then Sean turned around and located
Speaker 1: the football, and I think that, you know, that's that's
Speaker 1: that's three out of four. So that's you know, you
Speaker 1: got to give the defender credit on that one. So
Speaker 1: a lot of talks about his defender accuracy. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean we were a little inconsistent on Sunday, but
Speaker 1: I thought he was pretty accurate in the Atlanta Falcon game, Yeah,
Speaker 1: when he was twenty one to twenty five minutes second
Speaker 1: Africans Falcons seven past week seven. Yeah, I mean you
Speaker 1: just there was some inconsistency there, there were some rush
Speaker 1: there issues there. You know, it's a combination of everything.
Speaker 1: But I mean it's it's one game. So when you
Speaker 1: go those two, um you've mentioned before what happened to
Speaker 1: me perhaps the forty Niners team last year and then
Speaker 1: then before that and the Giant team, do you go
Speaker 1: back to the draw on board and James things. Do
Speaker 1: you just say, you know what, I think successful too
Speaker 1: one thing games these past years, We're just going to
Speaker 1: say do what we've always done. Now. I don't think
Speaker 1: the record has anything to do with anything. I think
Speaker 1: it's always your game planning for your next opponent. So
Speaker 1: you know, what, what do we have to do to
Speaker 1: beat the Jets? You know, whether we were two and
Speaker 1: oh at this point in time or whether we were
Speaker 1: on two, you don't just say, hey, we're two and oh,
Speaker 1: we don't have to do anything this week. I mean
Speaker 1: every every week for any coach I think at any
Speaker 1: level is it's an entire season. So it's kind of
Speaker 1: how you you look the whole thing out and kind
Speaker 1: of spread it out, But your your focus is on
Speaker 1: I know people make fun of coach Belichick, but I
Speaker 1: think when he said on to Cincinnati, that's what we're
Speaker 1: all kind of about. You're onto your next game and
Speaker 1: your game planning for your next game in terms of
Speaker 1: specifics of what they do, what do they present for problems?
Speaker 1: How do you handle Wilkerson, How do you handle Williams?
Speaker 1: What do you do with Kumari? What do you do
Speaker 1: with Rivus? You know, how do you how do you
Speaker 1: do all that? Your your focus is on your next opponent.
Speaker 1: It's not about, hey, we did this two years ago
Speaker 1: when we played this team, so let's do this again,
Speaker 1: because that's going to change a winning stream, a losing
Speaker 1: streak into a winning streak. It's about what do we
Speaker 1: need to do to put a plan in place offensively,
Speaker 1: defensively and special teams to play the Jets? Jumy, what
Speaker 1: have you seen in sin mentally? Haven't done his ability
Speaker 1: to turn the page after a rough game or a
Speaker 1: rough start, or you talk about his mental makeup a
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, I think Sam's really grounded. I think
Speaker 1: the one thing about him is he's really consistent. His
Speaker 1: approach and his attitude here every day. You know, there's
Speaker 1: he's not a guy that gets really really high, but
Speaker 1: he's not a guy that gets really really low. And
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of a lot to that,
Speaker 1: you know, especially in this game, because you're going to
Speaker 1: have successes and then you're gonna have failures. You could
Speaker 1: have him within a drive, you know, you could have
Speaker 1: him within a game. You know, you certainly have him
Speaker 1: within a season. So I think he's really consistent, you know,
Speaker 1: in terms of his approach of always trying to improve
Speaker 1: and always trying to get better offensive
