1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Coach, look like, get a little breakdown in that second touchdown, Johnson, 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: could you explain. 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, this communication, we got to get the 4 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 2: check and they went empty and caught us. 5 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 3: We didn't get it justin quick enough. 6 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: What do you think when you hear that Lamar Jackson's 7 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: mom wants him to run more. 8 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's a he's a special player. Played 9 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 2: against him a lot in my time in Tennessee. Is 10 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 2: always a headache throughout the week and even more so 11 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 2: on Sunday. Special player MVP candidate every single year continues 12 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 2: to get better and better and better each year, playing 13 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: at a really high level. Right now, the legs are 14 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 2: always in play right and that's the one thing he 15 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 2: can run it. He can hurt you with his legs. 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 2: Obviously he's throwing the ball really well right now. So 17 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 2: the X players are showing up in the run game, 18 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 2: in the pass game for them, and then just the 19 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 2: ability to create right whether he's taking off with it 20 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 2: and gaining yards or he's buying time and in the 21 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 2: backfield and then letting those playmakers they have out there 22 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 2: uncover and he finds ways to get him the ball 23 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:05,679 Speaker 2: down the field. 24 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 3: You you hit Derek in Tennessee. What stood at stood 25 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 3: out about him to you? 26 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the first thing is is 27 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 2: just the size, right, He's he's an outside linebacker playing 28 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 2: running back. It's two hundred and fifty plus plus bounds, 29 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 2: runs hard. It's gonna be tough if if you let 30 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 2: him get downhill tough to bring down one on one, 31 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: you gotta get hats to the ball, and it's going 32 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: to take more than one guy. Probably the best stiff 33 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 2: arm guy ever, Like he uses it as a weapon. 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: I mean, just in my time there, seeing some of 35 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: the things he was able to do with with the 36 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: stiff arm gives me nightmares this week. But he's a 37 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: special player, and we gotta make sure we do a 38 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 2: good job of hopefully keeping bottled up. And the thing 39 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: that's unique about him is if he has increase and 40 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: he's rolling like he takes to the distance, like he 41 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: makes your pay and and guys don't catch him. And 42 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: and that's showing up this year as well. You've talked 43 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: about your tackling the that what's the key for you 44 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 2: this week when you face a guy like him in 45 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: regards to that, Yeah, I think you I think on 46 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 2: the perimeter. You got to understand that the stuff arm's 47 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 2: probably coming. You gotta know what's what's we with that, 48 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: especially the DBS as he's out there in space, and 49 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: hopefully we can limit some of that space. And then 50 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: from there, I think on the inside, you gotta get 51 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 2: hast to the ball like he's going to fight for 52 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 2: every yard. He's going to run through arm tackles. You 53 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: got to be able to put your body on him. 54 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 3: You can't. 55 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 2: You can't think you're gonna be able to reach and 56 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: not get off a block and stick an arm out 57 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: there and bring him down. 58 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 3: He's gonna run right through that. 59 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: So we gotta do a great job shedding, getting off 60 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: blocks and finding ways to get to the party. 61 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: I understand that every coach the guys say like injuries 62 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: are part of the game, But do you almost feel 63 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: like you're like meeting guys and then saying, hey, go 64 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: start for us at this point. 65 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 66 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: I mean again, it's happened in my experience in the NFL. 67 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 2: It happens every year. And we brought some guys in 68 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 2: this week, and brought a guy in last week that 69 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 2: went out and. 70 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: Played, So I think everybody faces it. 71 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: You kind of become a not accustomed to it, but 72 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: you have a plan in place, and we got to 73 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: do a good job as a coaching staff making sure 74 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: we get them up to speed and not overload them 75 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 2: and give them the best chance to go out there 76 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: and Sunday and play and show what they can do 77 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: without having to think so much. 78 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: To that degree, what do you think of the way 79 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: the interior defensive line played last week, because I think 80 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people thought they were going to get overwhelmed, 81 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: and box score wise. 82 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 3: They did not. 83 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, they did a good job, I think. I mean 84 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 2: the technique and fundamental showed up. Like I think those 85 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: guys did a great job attacking the line of scrimmage, 86 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 2: playing with their hands being vertical on the front side, 87 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 2: creating some knock back where they couldn't really get downhill 88 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: on us immediately. I mean, I thought across the board, 89 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: all eleven guys, they were flying around. They were flying around, 90 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: showing up in the run game, tackling Trey Hawkins obviously 91 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: had a great hate to lose him, but had a 92 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: great great game for us showing up on the primur 93 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: and tackling as well. So I mean, I think it 94 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: was a concerted effort, and I was I was proud 95 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: of the way they played. Probably more play style, like 96 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: we talked about a little bit last week. It's it's 97 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: more play style than it is necessarily scheme and what 98 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 2: we're asking him to do. How much of the losses 99 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 2: Kyler and you been in just the rookie season, Yeah, 100 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 2: I mean he's he's one of our leaders back there, 101 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 2: Him and j Penn, they kind of run the show, 102 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 2: especially with Bobby being out here these last few weeks. 103 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: So I mean it's big. 104 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: But again with anybody, the next guy up right, we 105 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 2: gotta be ready to go. A good thing for us. 106 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 2: Danes played right. Dane's played, He's been involved. He's an 107 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: experienced player. It's not like he's he's super raw and 108 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 2: green and hasn't played snaps, so excited about his opportunities. 109 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 2: Get him out there, go see what he can do, 110 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 2: and and we'll keep moving forward. 111 00:04:58,480 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: Here. 112 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: Shat Micah last week with fat, I mean inside back 113 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: and I have five TFLs. 114 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the speed you know what did you 115 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 3: see that? I think it starts up front. 116 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 2: Like I said, those guys were able to not let 117 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: that guy get downhill get started. There were a lot 118 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: of perimeter things where you're making a bounce behind the 119 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage, and he played fast. He was flying around. 120 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 3: He's always been a fast player, but there was a speed. 121 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 2: Element to his game last week, and hopefully we can 122 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 2: continue to keep that, keep that going. 123 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 3: What did you think of the communication element? 124 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: Obviously good, I mean we had we had the one, 125 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: we had the one down down low. There was another one, 126 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 2: uh where we kind of got caught too. But for 127 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 2: the most part, I thought he was solid with it. 128 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 2: I didn't think it was glaring other than really the 129 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,799 Speaker 2: red zone one where we were a little late getting adjusted. 130 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: In the old days, when you had a mobile quarterback, 131 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: you used to have somebody shadow on. I mean, is 132 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: there something is that out now or is that something 133 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: you can occasionally use? 134 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you can mix it in, I think. 135 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: I mean, anytime you're you're doing that, you're stealing somebody 136 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 2: from somewhere, whether it's the coverage element, whether it's the 137 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 2: rush element where you're only bringing three so and you've 138 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: got to kind of weigh the balances of what you're 139 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 2: able to get out of it, how you're truly able 140 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: to affect them. I think the biggest thing for us 141 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: is just whoever we rush, having the awareness of who 142 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: he is, right if we give them vertical creases, if 143 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 2: we're giving up quick edges, like he's gonna make you pay. 144 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: So doing a good job, doing our best to be coordinated, 145 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 2: making sure we're taking away those lanes because you got them, Like, 146 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 2: unless you blit zero, there's gonna be lanes. So you've 147 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 2: got to be able to cancel them out and hopefully 148 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 2: overlap and do some different things and just making money 149 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: for him where it's not so inviting for him to 150 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: take off and go from what you've seen. 151 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 3: Do you see because edge rush is kind of getting 152 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 3: cut in between when they when they blitzed Lamar. Yeah. 153 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: I mean I would say anybody, anybody on the field, 154 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 2: you go on a one on one tackle with him, 155 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: it's gonna be hard, right like, no matter what it is. 156 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: And then you get a bigger body dude, an edge guy, 157 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: a d lineman, like it's even harder just because of 158 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 2: the athleticism the nature to be skill set wise. So 159 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: I think all those one on one tackles are hard, 160 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: like no different than kind of what we've talked about 161 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: with Derek, Like we've got to make sure we do 162 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 2: a good job and get all blocks, and everybody's got 163 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 2: to get to the party. 164 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 3: Like we can't. We can't have solo tackles. 165 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 2: Like like we have to have assisted tackles this week. 166 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 2: Solo tackles aren't going to do it. They're gonna be 167 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: hard to make one lamar and there. So that's part 168 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 2: of it. And then the thing I think about him 169 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: is you could be rushing, you could have a good rush, 170 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: and then it's he's gone. He's somewhere. He's moving the pocket, 171 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: he's manipulating the pocket, he's stepping up, and he's moving backwards. 172 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: So he's got really good movement skills and feel for 173 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 2: rushers inside the pocket, when he's able to escape, when 174 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: he should escape, when he should slide left or right 175 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: to create a little bit more time. So it's a 176 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: big challenge for those guys. We gotta be real, like 177 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: we got to keep rushing. There's a lot of these 178 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: plays that are probably ten plus seconds that are getting extended. 179 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: They end up being big plays where he's able just 180 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: to elude and escape and find somebody downfield. 181 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: Did you have a good reaction after Trey's interception? 182 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I did. I was excited for him. I know 183 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: he's got to keep the guys healthy after they get picked.
