1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Jeff, I'm just wondering what it's been like to work 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: with with Jared. We see him Julian and all the 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 1: other receivers, and how has he kind of accepted what 4 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: he's his role right now? You're talking about jared'stid him. Yes, yeah, 5 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: I mean it's Um. It's done a great job since 6 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 1: he got here. UM. You know, he's a great kid 7 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: and loves the game of football, works really hard. UM 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: has put a lot of time and effort into his craft. UM, 9 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: and he's really an unselfish guy. So UM, you know, 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: he competed his butt off this whole year trying to 11 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: learn and improve as a football player. UM really continues 12 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: to work really hard and prepare just as he would 13 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: if he was starting, UM, which is what he did 14 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,319 Speaker 1: last year as a rookie. And you know, he's an 15 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: unselfish guy. He'll do anything to help the team practice 16 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: as well, practice as hard, prepares every week, UM to 17 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: be ready to go. And UM, you know, I have 18 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in Jared and I see a 19 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: lot of growth in him each week that he's here. 20 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: Next question Mike Greece, followed by Evan Lazar. Good morning, Josh, Um, 21 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: what have you observed from Cam Newton that had that 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: reflects his motivation to maximize you know, this this season 23 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: here in New England. Good morning, Mike. Um, Cam's been 24 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: very consistent since I first met Cam. Um, you know, 25 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: he he loves the game of football, and he also 26 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: loves working really hard, and I have a great respect 27 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: for how much time and effort he puts in to 28 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: prepare himself each day for what lies ahead. Um. You know, 29 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: he's here early, he's here late. Um, he doesn't cut 30 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: any corner. He you know, is a tremendous um leader 31 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: and he does a lot each day to make sure 32 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: that he's at his best the next day. And so 33 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, I don't you know, to me, his motivation 34 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: is performing well and getting his group to perform well 35 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: along with him. Any other motivations you'd have to ask 36 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: him about. But honestly, I mean he you know, he 37 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: comes into work and he pushes his teammates. He continues 38 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: to keep keep our group loose and we have a 39 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: lot of fun, but we work really hard. And um, 40 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: I just I just know he's an unselfish guy that 41 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: wants to do whatever we ask him to do to 42 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: help our team win. And I don't think there's anything 43 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: else we could ask of him. Next question everyone was 44 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: our fall by Phil Perry. Hey, Josh. In the first 45 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: three games, we've obviously seen you guys use three very 46 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: different ways to move to football and u offensively at least, 47 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: And I was just wondering what it was that the 48 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: kind of the game plan going in or more in 49 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: game adjustments, and what's it said about the players that 50 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: they're able to, you know, learn different game plans and 51 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: then also adjust on the fly like that to you know, 52 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: whatever you guys need to do to move to football 53 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: that day. Well, they were, They prepare really hard, um, 54 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: you know. And our philosophy has always been the same, 55 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: which is, you know, to try to take, um, you know, 56 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: our guys that we have on our side of the 57 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: ball and the strengths that they possess together and try 58 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: to maximize those each week against the opponent that we're playing. 59 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: It's a pretty simple philosophy, um, But it also incurs 60 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: some you know learning each week of possibly some new 61 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: things that we want to try to do that may 62 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: give us the best advantage to have success. And again 63 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: it goes back to their their work ethic, the way 64 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: they study how intentional they are with their the time 65 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: that we have in the meeting room with them, the 66 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: walkthroughs we put in, UM, you know, they use every 67 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: minute of the day, and they deserve a tremendous amount 68 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: of credit for being able to execute UM. You know, 69 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: different styles of offense. UM. You know, from from one 70 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: week to the next. I mean, it's not like we 71 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: reinvent the wheel every week. There's a few things that 72 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: are maybe a little new for each team, and and 73 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: we try to try to do the best we can 74 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: to execute those things when they're called. But UM, you know, 75 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: whether it's an adjustment we make in the middle of 76 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: the game or some portion of the game plan that's 77 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: a little different than than before. UM, they got a 78 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,119 Speaker 1: great attitude, a great mindset about it to work really hard. 79 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: They understand why we're doing it, and they do everything 80 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: they can to execute it the way that we ask 81 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: them to go. Phil Perry Fall by Karen Groui. Josh, 82 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: how's it going good? Phil? How are you doing good? Thanks? 83 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: This is sort of building off of Evans question, But 84 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 1: I'm wondering how you define balance offensively and if it's 85 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: a week to week thing, if you can show it 86 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: over multiple weeks and if that's important to you, Is 87 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: it important to have balance even I just sort of 88 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: curious how you would define that that word. Yeah, I 89 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: think it's important to try to be good at all 90 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,119 Speaker 1: the things that you want to do on offense, which 91 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: obviously is you know, starts with running the football, protecting 92 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: the passer, and throwing the football. So I think it's 93 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: important to be good at those things and to work hard, 94 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: and we've worked hard in training camp in the first 95 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: few weeks of this season here to try to be 96 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: good at at multiple different facets of our offense. I've 97 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: never been I've never been too attached to the idea 98 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: that every series, or every game, or every quarter has 99 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: to be you know, fifty fifty right down the middle, 100 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: because I think once we get to the game, the 101 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: most important thing is is that we're doing the right 102 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: things that give ourselves the best chance to win. So, 103 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: you know, that might mean, as we've talked about in 104 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: the past, running it more, throwing it more, based on 105 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: the look the defense has given us, because they get 106 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: to say too, you know, they can put eight nine, 107 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: seven six, However many guys they want to put down 108 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 1: near the line of scrimmage. They have the choice to 109 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: do that, and they certainly they will and they can, 110 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: and they've they've tried a lot of different things. We've 111 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: seen a lot of different looks this year, and they 112 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 1: can they can play you know, they can pressure us, 113 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: they can play split safety zone, they can play me 114 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: in coverage, and a lot of those things, you know, 115 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: will kind of determine the way we want to try 116 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: to continue to play in that game, some of which 117 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: you don't know until Sunday. And I would say, you know, 118 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: this week is a team that you know, they do 119 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: a lot of different things, and they do a lot 120 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: a lot of things well, and so it's going to 121 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: be an interesting week of preparation. Got to prepare for 122 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: a lot this week, and our balance again will probably 123 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: be dictated by, you know, how the game flows and 124 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: what happens when we get to you know, the middle 125 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: of the first quarter or the beginning of the second quarter, 126 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: will kind of have a better idea of what the 127 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: game is kind of unfolding. Like, Thanks Jo. Next question 128 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: Karen Gregan follower Dan Roach. When Josh, how are you good? Karen? 129 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: How are you doing good things? I was wondering about 130 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: Cam and his ability to take coaching and how you've 131 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: found that and how you find working with him in 132 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: that regard correcting mistakes and so on. Uh, very very enjoyable. 133 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: UM for a coach. UM, he's he listens, he's a 134 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: he's a really good listener. UM, he communicates well. If 135 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: he has a question, you always hear the question. UM. 136 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: He doesn't hold anything in UM. You know. And and honestly, 137 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: those are the things you you if you could ask 138 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: anything of a player. UM, it's that they would communicate 139 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: when they don't understand something clearly, or if you want 140 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: to try to correct something, that they listen to you 141 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: intently and try to make those adjustments and changes. And 142 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: I've been I've been super impressed with his humility. This 143 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: guy has, you know, and he's accomplished a lot in 144 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: his career, you know, and being ten years in the 145 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: league and doing all the things he's done and coming 146 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: here and having no familiarity with our coaching style or 147 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: our system or the way we do things. UM. I 148 00:08:54,840 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: have been incredibly impressed with the way he's embraced it, UM, 149 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: looks forward to it. UM, you know, and really really 150 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: wants to be coached, wants to be great, wants to 151 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: improve and um, you know, it's a great example for 152 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: a lot of our younger players. UM. I feel very 153 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: comfortable coaching him, whether it's practice meetings, games, walk throughs, 154 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: because he's such a good listener and he takes nothing personal, 155 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: which really there's no no part of coaching that is personal. 156 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: It's just about trying to correct and improve. And he's 157 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: really done a nice job. Thank you. Next question Dan 158 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 1: roach Fallow by Bob Socie Well to Josh good Money.

We start a couple of 162 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 1: weeks ago with the dangerous of dangerousness of Bruss Wilson. 163 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: What he does? What does it affect you at all? 164 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: The other side when you when you're going up against 165 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: the quarterback like that, like the Mahomes that you're face 166 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: this week, as far as what you're trying to do offensively, 167 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: not really. Um, you know, that's a that's a very common, 168 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: you know, a very common um you know line. You know, 169 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: so and so play and so and so. In reality 170 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: they'll never be on the field together. Um, you know, 171 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: it's the same thing with us. You know, we we 172 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: have to prepare for the defense and we have to 173 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: prepare to do the right things to be able to 174 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: protect the football. Um, you know, possess it, move the 175 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: football and score points and so as much as UM 176 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 1: you know, there's there's a certain there's certainly a challenge 177 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: for our kicking units and our defense, you know, to 178 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: to compete against their kicking units and their offense. You know, 179 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: our focus is solely on the defense side of the ball, 180 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: and you really it takes some discipline, It takes focus, um, 181 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: you know, to to keep your mind where it needs 182 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: to be, and that's on how to attack the defense 183 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: and how to move the football. We got a great 184 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: channel ahead of us. This is a team that's really disruptive, 185 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: UM on defense, makes a lot of creates a lot 186 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: of negative plays and put you in positions, um, you know, 187 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: to to turn the football over. UM, you know, Jones, Clark, Matthew, 188 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 1: I mean, these guys, Hitchens, these guys are about as 189 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: disruptive as as you get, you know, in terms of 190 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: they're they're in a lot of different spots. They get 191 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: in the backfield, they create penetration, they rush the passer, 192 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: they blitz from everywhere, they tackle well, they run to 193 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: the ball, they change their coverage looks. They're really good 194 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: to Sky's team, probably the best we've played. And I 195 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: know they're well coached. I mean coach with coach Bagnell, 196 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: love coach with Brennan Daly, and these guys are some 197 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: of the best in the league, and so m we 198 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: don't have any time to worry about, you know, the 199 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: other side of the ball, and our defensive staff and 200 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: coaches and players will be worrying about that stuff, and 201 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: our focus will will stay on how to how to 202 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: attack the defense and score points quick all up help 203 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: shrifting years. How proud were you of the offensive unit 204 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: from you know, what happened with James obviously was tough 205 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: for everyone in that running back room, but also to 206 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: watch Joe Tuney step in and go over to center 207 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: and then oh when new step in at guard. Oh, 208 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: probably are you have the entire unit for what you 209 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: were able to do on Sunday. I'm I'm always proud 210 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: of these guys, you know, they we have a great 211 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: group of human beings and they work extremely hard to 212 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: be prepared and ready to go every week. And we 213 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: couldn't ask more of them, and they handle adversity with 214 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: class and grace, and nobody epitomizes that more than James White, 215 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: you know, and in terms of what he what he's 216 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: had to handle and go through, and um, you know, 217 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: he's always been a tremendous example for us. And I 218 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: think our guys, um, you know, the guys that were 219 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: asked to fill different roles on Sunday stepped up, prepared 220 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: really hard and try to execute the best that they could. 221 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: And they our guys really did a good job of, um, 222 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,839 Speaker 1: you know, just trying to be ready to go and 223 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: handle the challenge that was presented to them. And UM, 224 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: you know we've had we've had had some tough things, 225 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: you know, and that's life, you know, everybody goes through them. 226 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: And I think our guys deserve a lot of credit for, 227 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: um continuing to prepare hard while they're also being human 228 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: and helping their teammates, helping their coaches that have gone 229 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: through some adversity here recently. Um, you know, I thought 230 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: they I thought they went out and performed very admirably. 231 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: And I'll apologize to those we don't get too, but 232 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm going to try to squeeze in two final questions, 233 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: Bob Soci and Teras Oullivan. All right, thanks, Stacy, Goodbrnon Josh, 234 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: good morning, Bob. This is related to Dan's question about 235 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: the offensive line, specifically that changing personnel. You've run it 236 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: effectively in different ways, and you've done it with two 237 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: new coaches on the offensive line, at least two guys 238 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: who now have the responsibility and and done that Cole 239 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: and Carmen. I'm curious through three games, what's it been 240 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: like to work with them, whether it's the preparation for 241 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: each game, collaborative Europe oppressions, that's far the way you 242 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: guys are working together in the job they're doing. Our 243 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: staff works really hard, and Carmen Cole put in a 244 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: lot of time and effort in the offseason. They've studied 245 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: at the foot of the best, you know, the best 246 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: offensive coach I've been around, and you know, and and 247 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: Dante taught them very well. But they've also put a 248 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: lot of time and effort into their cells. And you know, 249 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: there's some new things we're doing, there's some changes we've made, 250 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: and they continue to work with our players young and 251 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: old to try to make progress fundamentals are such an 252 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: important part of playing offensive line. Communication is a critical 253 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: element of that as well, and they've really done a 254 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: nice job of trying to stress that. We've had some 255 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: guys play different spots, which is never easy, but they've 256 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: been up to the challenge. And UM, I appreciate the 257 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: way they work, Appreciate the way they communicate with the players, 258 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: Appreciate how hard they work each week to prepare them, 259 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: make sure that unit's ready to go. And they've certainly 260 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: they've done a nice job. And we're going to continue 261 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: to try to work hard to to prepare our group 262 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: as we move forward. Thanks. The last last question to Sullivan. 263 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: Thank you, Stacy. Um, Josh, we love kind of talking 264 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: about your play calling and the prowess and the different things, 265 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: the different game planning through three weeks with Cam as 266 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: your quarterback. Now is it what are you learning about it, 267 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: what you can do with him, how it affects you know, 268 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: how his skill set plays into what you can do 269 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: as a play caller. It's um, you know, it's different. Um, 270 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: there's there's some there's certainly a huge chunk of what 271 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: we've been able to try to do in the past 272 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: that we continue to try to do UM. And then 273 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: you know, you take certain strengths of each player, and 274 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: in this in this particular case, we're talking about the quarterback. 275 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: You take the strengths of the players that you have 276 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: and you try to UM put him into positions to 277 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: be successful that they have the most confidence in. And 278 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: so whether it's some version of a an adjustment in 279 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: the running game, some ability to use his legs, or 280 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: his size and strength, UM, you know, we've we've tried 281 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: to do some of all of that. UM And at 282 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: the same time, the most important thing for us and 283 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: for Cam is to run the offense and really enjoyed 284 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: the process with him because he prepares so hard and 285 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: so UM. You know, there's we run a lot of 286 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: players that have nothing to do with UM deception or 287 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: tricking the defense or anything like that. It's just fundamentals 288 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: and execution. And Cam's adamant about wanting to do his 289 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 1: job really well in those areas, just as he is 290 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: if I asked him to run the ball or throw 291 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: it deep or do something else. And so you just 292 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: try to, you know, you try to try to maximize 293 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: their their strengths each week, and at the same time, 294 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: I'd say I'm probably we're not done learning. You know, 295 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: it takes a while for you to learn everything that 296 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: you could possibly do with a player at a certain position, 297 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: not to mention the fact that we try to improve 298 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: a lot of areas as we go through each week 299 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: of practice. So I think the development, even though he's 300 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: played in the league a long time, I think the 301 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 1: development of this year for him as a player and 302 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: our team is an offense, is far from over. And 303 00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: so really enjoying the process. I'll look forward to every 304 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: day get to coach him and um, you know he's 305 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: obviously he reciprocates that with his effort and uh and 306 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: the time he spends trying to prepare himself for the game. 307 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: Thank you, Josh, Hey, Josh, this is Ben Bull and 308 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: I apologize. I know you've gone for a while.
