1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: I just wanted to ask you about John Jones and

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: what his skill set allows you guys to do when

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 1: you play him at safety and kind of just what

4
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 1: you guys see you, Um, that makes him a good

5
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: fit there some of the time. You know, John's really

6
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: worked hard since he's been with us, and and we

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: started off primarily in a special team's role and then

8
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: that expanded to some situational things on defense to really

9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: our nickel corner to safety. So he just continue to

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: expand his role force defensively, which is giving us more

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: flexibility and we've been able to find more opportunities to

12
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,240
Speaker 1: get him on the field. Um, he's a smart d

13
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: that he works hard and has good instincts and you know,

14
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: has a good good understanding of our defensive systems, so

15
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: it allows him to do a lot of different things

16
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: for us. Thanks question, Yeah, you're welcome. Next question Mike Greece,

17
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: followed by Tom Current. Right. Thanks, stim So you guys

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: have had a lot of moving parts on the offensive

19
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: line already. M really going back to the spring guys

20
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: in and out, how do you feel like that offensive

21
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: line group has been handling those that situations? Well, I

22
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 1: think everybody's trying to do the best they can. As

23
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: you said, there's some moving parts there and some of

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: them UM anticipated or you know, had a chance to

25
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: plan for. Some you know, happen rather quickly and you

26
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: have to react to those. So UM. But yeah, that

27
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: grews a hard working group and they communicated well together,

28
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: tried to UM. You know, the guys are more experienced helping.

29
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: Some of the guys have less experience. But overall we've

30
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: just tried to and it's take a day by day

31
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: and do the things that we can do. And we

32
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: can't do everything, but we can do the things that

33
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: we feel confident and very little practice and prepare for,

34
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: and you know, hope that we can go do a

35
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: good job of those as we're starting to expand overall

36
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: with that group and the follow up on that. UM.

37
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: Given that situation, it's how valuable is a guy like

38
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: Joe Tuoney UM with the ability to play multiple spots

39
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: really all five spots when I when you think about it, yeah,

40
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: very valuable. UM. Somebody has to have versatility on that group.

41
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: Take preventive team. You can't can't have a backup for

42
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: every position, so somebody has to move either one of

43
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: your starters has to move or your two backups have

44
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 1: to cover all five spots and some combination of that.

45
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: So um to have we need somebody that can do that.

46
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: And Joe's our most versatile alignment on the team, so

47
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: that that, you know, is an important role for us

48
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: to have in maintain in our depth with the group.

49
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: Thank you. Next question me Tom kernfall by Nera Princeati. Hey, Bill,

50
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: I'm curious about with your coaching staff having gone through

51
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: such a transition in the offseason personnel wise, and we're

52
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: talking about the games as they unfold and what the

53
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: players are doing. But there's guys who are wearing multiple hats,

54
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: there's guys in new spots. You're probably doing more. Is

55
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: it invigorating as well as maybe all exhausting to have

56
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: a new group, And how do you how do you

57
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: feel about the progress made so far and the work

58
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: that has been done, because it seems to me like

59
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: it's pretty outstanding so far. Yeah, well, thanks Tom, Dah.

60
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: We're just trying to prepare a week a week and

61
00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: get ready to play the Jets in this case, UM,

62
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: and we'll do it. We thanks us this week and

63
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: try to put our players in a in a competitive

64
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: position where they can have a fair have a fair

65
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: chance against you know what the Jets are doing, so

66
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: and accounting our players to you know, to be good

67
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: football players, which they are, and try to give an

68
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: opportunity to do that. So whatever that takes for us

69
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: to do, then we want to try to do it.

70
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: However that unfolds might be a little bit different from

71
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: week to week, but um, you know, all the money,

72
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: that's where our goal is and just a quick fall.

73
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: Are you still learning about the guys on your staff,

74
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: what they do well, who works well together? And I

75
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: know most of them have been there and you've got

76
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: playing experience with some of them, but are you still

77
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: learning about them as the season goes along and what

78
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 1: they bring to the people. Well, I think we're all

79
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: learning every day. I am assume everybody else is too.

80
00:04:54,680 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: So just whether that's our specific job or how we

81
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: interact with other people or another group, or handle a

82
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: situation that's must saying it's like new new, but it's

83
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: maybe one that we haven't dealt with recently or with

84
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: this particular group of people. Then you know, there's always

85
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: a little bit of a learning curve there too. All right,

86
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: Thanks well, next question or Prince, hey Bill Um, when

87
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: there's a possibility like with next week, that you could

88
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: be going against a quarterback who has very little in

89
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 1: the way of NFL tape, how do you involve the

90
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: scouting staff and coming in and helping you guys prepare,

91
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: just if they have a lot of familiarity with someone

92
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: like Luke Falk from college. Um So, Norah, this this

93
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: is a situation that comes up every week. We have

94
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 1: to know all the players that are on our opponent's roster,

95
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: including really the practice squad players, because we know that

96
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: they could be moved up at the last moment, like

97
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: what happened in the in the Pittsburgh game in Miami

98
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: last week. So with the offensive lineman for Miami and

99
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: it was a linebacker for Pittsburgh. So those moves can

100
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: happen on Saturday. We have to be ready and anticipate

101
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: those ahead of time. So all the players that are

102
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: on the active roster we have to prepare for whoever

103
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: the starters are at any position, quarterback or any other spot.

104
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 1: It doesn't make any difference. We all know that in

105
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: the National Football League that could change in one play,

106
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 1: So we have to know who the next player is

107
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: going to be in the game at that spot, at

108
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: every position, and that's that's what we prepare for. So ultimately,

109
00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: how the game unfolds, or how our opponents play those players,

110
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: I mean, if they substitute them, I mean, however they

111
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 1: want to substitute or play them in whatever order or

112
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: whatever rotation, that's all out of our control. We just

113
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: have to be ready for everybody. So it's really the

114
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: same process every week. Players that we know more about

115
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: we know confirm that in the games that are available

116
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: to us. The players maybe that we don't know as

117
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: much about, could be like an offensive lineman who's been

118
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: inactive for a couple of weeks and there's an injury

119
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: and now he moves up to the active list, or

120
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: they could move them up without an injury. You know,

121
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: we still we have to prepare for all those guys,

122
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: and then whoever we play against, we're not surprised by

123
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: that player skills and his style of plays. So it's

124
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: really something that we we go through every single week,

125
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: all the way across the board. Of course, the hardest

126
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: place to do that is in the kicking game because

127
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: you're really dealing with, you know, sixty six starters when

128
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: you go through all those teams, but it's still part

129
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: of our preparation, so it really it's it's really the

130
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: same every week, and again we know that whatever it

131
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: is right now or would appear to be right now,

132
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: could easily changed during the game, starting with the first

133
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: play if there was, you know, an injury or a

134
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: decision by our opponents, um to go at a different

135
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: direction something we can't control. Thank you, you're welcome. We're

136
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: Doug Kai fall by Max Max Rulo, be Doug, right, Bill.

137
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: I just wanted to follow up on Evan's question about

138
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: Jonathan Jams When when a player like Jonathan progressively takes

139
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: on a bigger defensive role, how do you balance the

140
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: amount of special team snaps that he can also maintain. Uh, yeah,

141
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: so that's a good question. Um, it's a great question.

142
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: It's again answered on a week a week basis. Um,

143
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: we try to anticipate what the roles will be defensively

144
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: and in the kicking game or offensively, and they contend

145
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: them what the person's position is. We try to anticipate

146
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: what those roles are and we know that during the game.

147
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: As we just talk about in Norah's question that things

148
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: could change, That role could become here or or potentially smaller,

149
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: dependent on how the game unfolds, which personnel groups they're using,

150
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: and so forth. So we try to balance those things out.

151
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: And it also depends to degree on the depth that

152
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 1: we have that the other positions that are involved, so

153
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: that maybe the primary offensive or defensive position the player plays,

154
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: and also the positions that he would play in the

155
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 1: kicking game. What's our potential depth there, and so we

156
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: try to We know, we know that that player could

157
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: be involved in all those but maybe not on every play,

158
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: maybe just on not not all special teams, and maybe

159
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: it's just on certain ponds backed up ponts or plus

160
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 1: fifty punts or whatever it is, or maybe one of

161
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: the four course special teams units, not all four of them,

162
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: and we just all depend on week to week again,

163
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: that player, what the roles are, what the depth is

164
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: on offense or defense, what the depth is on in

165
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: the kicking game at that position, And I would say

166
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: how important we think that role is. You know, for example,

167
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 1: if we were expecting you know, the opponents kicker to

168
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: be kicking touchbacks, you know, maybe the role on the

169
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: kickoff return team wouldn't be as important as a role

170
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 1: on something else. So again, there are a lot of

171
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 1: factors there to consider. Sorry to give a long answer

172
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: here to a pretty short question, but those are all

173
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: the things that we take into consideration and then talk about.

174
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: And of course it's something happens during the game that

175
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: would alter that, which sometimes it does, then you have

176
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 1: to adjust on the fly and try to make those

177
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: decisions again based on your special teams and offensive or defense.

178
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 1: So that's a great question, and it's one that we

179
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:23,319
Speaker 1: constantly have to analyze and think about. And again the

180
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: thing things changed quickly then that just just make it

181
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: that much harder. Much appreciate it, Thank you you alcome.

182
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: My next question next for real, called by Mike the

183
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 1: Tragia Hell you Bill. We saw Matt Slater take a

184
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: few snaps on offense in the goal line situations on Sunday.

185
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: Why did you go with Slater in those situations and

186
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: what made him the right man for the jobs? Well,

187
00:11:55,400 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: Mike's done that before, Matt's done that before, and again

188
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: a similar question to or similar answer to last question

189
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: we had. It just really depends on what we're trying

190
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: to do and what the what the options are UM,

191
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,719
Speaker 1: and we have a couple of receivers that are you know,

192
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 1: fairly new to the team in terms of you know,

193
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: being on the field, like with Antonio and Josh. We

194
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 1: have another receivers, other receivers like Gunner and Phil that

195
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:36,719
Speaker 1: you know aren't aren't the biggest guys physically UM terms

196
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: of putting them on the goal line and you know,

197
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: dealing with things like that. So it's really a combination

198
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,719
Speaker 1: of what they're asking the player to do, what the

199
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: options are, and you know, and again in mass case,

200
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: he's done it before UM in other years and in

201
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: some cases when we haven't used them, he's done the

202
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: backup and we've had three tight ends or we're using

203
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: offensive lineman as a tight end and using tight ends,

204
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,719
Speaker 1: he was, you know, a backup in those situations, so

205
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: he has the most experience doing that. Thanks Pill Yanks,

206
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: welcome back. Next question will finish with Mike and Mike

207
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: here Michael Tragby and the last question will be Mike Read.

208
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: Thank you Stacey. Morning, Bill. I wanted to ask you

209
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 1: about Mike's question earlier height about the offensive line and

210
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: when you're having so many moving parts, how much does

211
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,439
Speaker 1: the coaching staff have to take into account the different

212
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: strengths of those offensive lineman when they're shifting around the

213
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: offensive line when play calling, when considering which plays to call, run, play,

214
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: pass play, and just curious to get your impression on

215
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: how that those moving parts might impact what plays you

216
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 1: might call. Well, that's that's a great question, Mike, and

217
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 1: it's very appropriate it to this game, but really every game, um,

218
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: you know, plays like might look good on on xs

219
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: and os and on the you know, on the film

220
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: where you you know, just look at blocking angles and

221
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: things like that, but then you actually look at who's

222
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: blocking who and how difficult is that block and is

223
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: that a block that we're you know, confident and that

224
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: we can execute or are there better offen So, um,

225
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: personnel definitely fits into it. I mean, we're not going

226
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: to run a new offense just because you know we

227
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: have a new player on the offensive line. I'm not

228
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: saying that. But you definitely take into consideration the matchup

229
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: of of your blocker and the anticipated defender because you

230
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: don't always know for sure where they're going to line up. Um,

231
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: they could they could stun or they could line up

232
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: and you know, every team usually has a couple of

233
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: different fronts. Um. Certainly with the Jet they don't line

234
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: up in the exact same spot every time, so that's

235
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: not one hundred percent predictable. But generally you know where

236
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: they're going to be more often than so, Yes, you

237
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: definitely have to take that into consideration. And again it's

238
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: not to the point where we you know, would change

239
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: an entire game plan, but UM, some plays, if this

240
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: player was in there, we might want to run that,

241
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: but maybe heat not available this week, so you know,

242
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: we'll go with something else. And that's that That frequently happens,

243
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: no question about it. That's that's a consideration. Um, you

244
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: have to ultimately it comes down to matchups and and

245
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: if you are concerned about a particular matchup, then you

246
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: got to really decide how how much you want to

247
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: want to run that play. Great, thanks Bill, Yeah you're

248
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: waking the last question. We Mike Reas, go ahead, Mike,

249
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: thanks am I unmuted here you got me yea, yes, okay, great, okay,

250
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: thank you, m Bill. In twenty years now as head coach,

251
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: and um, you've made a lot of trades. I think

252
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: you had me to trade with every team in the

253
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: league prior to the Jets, I'm sorry, instead of the

254
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: Jets prior to last week. And with that in mind,

255
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: I was curious just how did the dynamics of that

256
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: situation unfold and did it surprise even you to be

257
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: in conversations with the Jets just given that history? Uh no, no,

258
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: there was Ilet's say, there was a certain period of

259
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: time when there's no way this transaction would have happened.

260
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: But you know during other periods of time, Yeah, we

261
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: have a Again, we don't want to help the Jets,

262
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: they don't want to help us. We're in the same division,

263
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: so they're not the easiest traits to make. So you know,

264
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: if a player can, it's a trade good for both teams.

265
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: And ultimately we're trying to do is improve our team,

266
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: and we're trying to you know, we have fourteen other

267
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: games to play besides the game against the Jets. So

268
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: do we want to help them? Do they want to

269
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: help us? No? And no, but um, in the end,

270
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,959
Speaker 1: if it helps the other four team, it helps us

271
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: in the other four team games and helps our team, Um,

272
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: then it's something that's worth considering. And so um, yeah,

273
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: I think you know, look, we're well, we'll try to

274
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: help our team in any way we can, UM. Not

275
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 1: saying that those trade within the division you don't have

276
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: to analyze a little bit more closely. But you know,

277
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: we've done it before with you know, certainly with Miami

278
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: and U with a player like Welker, or Buffalo with

279
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: a player like Bledsoe. I mean, those weren't insignificant players

280
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: UM at that time. So in the end, I want

281
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: to do with us to help our football team, UM

282
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: and and I don't want to try to help our

283
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: opponents that much. But you have to give up something

284
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: and get something. So that's you know, you have to

285
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: look at your situation try to do it best for

286
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 1: your team. But that's a great question. It's you know,

287
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: sure that's when you look at the beginning of each

288
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: year in interdivision trading, it's probably not something that's you

289
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: would think it's gonna be at the top of the list.

290
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: But you know, we traded with Buffalo this year or too,

291
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: so we made two division trades um in thin a week.

292
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: So never know. All right, thank you, thank you, Yeah,

293
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: you're all Mike, thank you
