1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: I'm going to start with Evans R. Fall by Mike Greece,

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: a coach. I just wanted to ask you about what

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: you've gotten out of Coach Popovich and coach Priscilla so

4
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: far and and just the work that they've done with

5
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: the offensive line through this point. Yeah, I think, um,

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: you know, Carmen Cole have done a great job there.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: UM you know, it's the biggest position on the team

8
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 1: in terms of number of players. UM so, Uh, there's

9
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: a lot of and we have a lot of different

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: levels of players there. Some guys with a lot of

11
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: planning experience and um you know, other guys with not

12
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: so much. So the combination of um you know, a

13
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: number of players and the experienced levels and all that,

14
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,240
Speaker 1: it's really um you know, a lot of there's a

15
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 1: lot of coaching going on there, and they've they've done

16
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: an excellent job of um you know, working together managing

17
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: the needs of the position, UM and um you know,

18
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: mixing in both fundamentals and the scheme adjustments that we

19
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 1: have to make in our um in our offensive system. UM.

20
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: So it's been you know that they've done a really

21
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: good job there. Are you sure? One other hand, raise

22
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,080

23
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: but sweet this morning. Your thoughts on what you saw

24
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: last night from the Chiefs. Yeah, another impressive performance like usual. Um,

25
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: they're really dominant in the first half. You know, basically

26
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: scored thirty one points there. Um, you know, and a

27
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: half of football on the road, so against a good

28
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: football team. So they're they're a very explosive group. Um.

29
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: You know, played played to Ravens well defensively. Um, so

30
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: you know they're They're a good football team, very talented,

31
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: well coached, played with a lot of poise and discipline.

32
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: So you know, we know we're gonna have our work

33
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: cutout for us in Kansas City's championship football team, and

34
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: you know we're gonna have to play our best game

35
00:01:55,160 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: and coach it. A quick followed Bill Patrick mahomes, Um,

36
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on him as a player? I mean,

37
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: all the superlatives have been said about him, just be

38
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: repeating them all that's trustly been volin fall Back Hillery.

39
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: Good morning, Bill, the Chiefs. You played them several times

40
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: the last few years, Uh, do you have do you

41
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: feel like you have a good familiarity with them as

42
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: an opponent. And um, do you see them progressing? I mean,

43
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: this is now Mahome's third year in the offense. Do

44
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: you see them building and adding onto the offense from

45
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: what they've had year to year? Oh? Sure, Yeah. Andy

46
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: continues to you know, expand his scheme. Um. And you

47
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: know they've they've always had a pretty broad attack. They

48
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: continue to have that. Um. Certainly, you know, Edwards has

49
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: given them a you know, explosive player in the backfield

50
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: and that's um, you know, more more than what they

51
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 1: had last year. Uh So you know, that's that's why

52
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: they drafted him and and he's delivered that for him,

53
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: you know, in the three this year. But yeah, they

54
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: have an excellent they're very well coached, They have an

55
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 1: excellent attack. They have a lot of good players, they're

56
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: very experienced in their system, and they can do a

57
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 1: lot of things, no question. And what are some of

58
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: the characteristics of the defense being run by Steve Spagnol

59
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: over there? Yeah, when they mix it up, Um, they

60
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: mix a combination of man's zone, blitz zone and and

61
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: some you know man blitzes, pressure blitzes. So they're not

62
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: afraid to call them. They they make you offensively deal

63
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: with everything. Uh, so they really test your execution and

64
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: again have have some pretty experience and savvy players back

65
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: there to linebackers of course, Matthew Um, and you know

66
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: Jones is a very very disruptive player up front, you know,

67
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: along with Clark. So, uh, they got the guys at

68
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: every level that are a problem and and they have

69
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: a you know, a pretty extensive scheme. Uh kind of

70
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: like they have an offense. So the goodest lot to

71
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: prepare for. Thanks question Phil Perry, followed by all Billy

72
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: You mentioned they have an extensive scheme offensively, and it

73
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: looks like last night they had sort of new to

74
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,679
Speaker 1: me at least um formation where they had four players

75
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 1: sort of been single filed detached from the formation. Is

76
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: Andy Reid's offense? Is it one where you sort of

77
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: have to expect to see things that you haven't seen before?

78
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: And if that is the case, how difficult is it

79
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: to try to just prepare your team for that? H Well,

80
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: I think Andy yeah continually comes up with, um, you know,

81
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 1: little wrinkles here and there. Um, that's that's you expect

82
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: that a couple of plays a game. But that's you know,

83
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: not really the you know, the core of what they do. Um,

84
00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: those gadget plays and those you know formations that are

85
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: a little out of the ordinary. Uh, you know, that'll

86
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 1: pop up from time to time. But you know, they

87
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: really win with good fundamentals, good execution and and uh,

88
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: you know, the core things that they do. But yeah,

89
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: they obviously put things in there that um to mix

90
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: it up and give the defense a little bit of

91
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: a different look. So you know, those are definitely coming

92
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 1: in every game, a different one, you know, ones that

93
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: we haven't practiced. But that's you know, we'll have to

94
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: follow our rules and and handle those situations, you know

95
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: when they come up. But it's really their their core,

96
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: their core stuff and their core execution and their good

97
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: execution doing those things on their ability to you know,

98
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: do do quite a few of them and hit the

99
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: defense in number of different ways. You know. I think

100
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: the way that they spread the ball around is um,

101
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: you know, that's obviously a problem. So those are the

102
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: things that are i'd say the biggest things we got

103
00:05:54,640 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: to contend with. Goat, I think stay Um, the words

104
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: that you keep hearing with Kansas City receiving Corps is speed. Speed.

105
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: Does that alter the way do you have to get

106
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: ready for the team when speed is a key weapon overall,

107
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: or do you just have to keep to the way

108
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: you think you do things anyway? Well, they yeah, I

109
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: mean I think you definitely have to take it into consideration.

110
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: There's they can they can out leverage Janu hurry and

111
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: once they get behind you, there's not not too many

112
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: guys on that offensive you can catch. So, um, you

113
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: know we're gonna have to do a great job of um,

114
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: you know, maintaining our our leverage and our discipline and

115
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: in respect. Then we play against fast guys every week,

116
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: but I would say they have you know, a lot

117
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: of them on the field at the same time, and

118
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: that that just puts more stress on the defense. And

119
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: the quarterback's very good getting the wall and and the

120
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, uh Andy was a great job of you know,

121
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: stressing the defense and putting them in spaces that you know,

122
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 1: force the defense to stretch and create you know, openings

123
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: for other guys so if you don't let them get

124
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: behind you. So that's you know, they do all those

125
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: things well. They're very well balanced and um, the executions outstanding.

126
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: They really know what they're doing. They have you know

127
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: a lot of good players and a good coaches that

128
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: can put the defense in a lot of compromising spots

129
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: and just a good photo up on that. Does that's

130
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: the fact that you have to stretch a little bit

131
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: when you when you were going against the stiege. Does

132
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: that make it easier? Not that it could be easy anyway,

133
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: but does that make it a little bit more moving

134
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: for Travis Kelsey to get open, who was a great

135
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: tight end and in any way, Yeah, they have five

136
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: good receivers out there on almost every place, so um,

137
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's hard to match up, you know,

138
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: with two or three or four of them, but they

139
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: got five and a great quarterback and and a great

140
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: offensive system. So if they maximize the amount of pressure

141
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: they put on you. And then again, they do a

142
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: lot of different things. It's not not just one route

143
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: or one guy or you know, a couple of concepts.

144
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: They have a multitude of ways to attack the off

145
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: the defense and they do them all every week. So

146
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: you you know, sooner or later you're going to get

147
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: tested and you just got to be rated to handle it.

148
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: Make the final question, Doug Connie don Bill, you guys

149
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: have four wide receivers on your practice squad, elected to

150
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: call it by Zaiah Zuber last week. What have you

151
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: just seen from from all four of those guys, including

152
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: the two that you didn't really get to work with

153
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: over the summer. Yeah, I think our numbers at receiver

154
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: are are good. We have good, good depth there. Um

155
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,559
Speaker 1: and the young players, um, you know, including Gunner who's

156
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: on IR now, but I would include him in that group.

157
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: Those those guys are all young and and getting better

158
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,800

159
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,599
Speaker 1: you know he'd fall into that category as well, so um,

160
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 1: nikkiel two for that matter. So you know we've got

161
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,760

162
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: know some experience with Julian and Demir. So uh, it's

163
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: a group that's continuing to get better. We'll evaluate them

164
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,760

165
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: who we feel like, and you know it is moving

166
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: ahead of other guys that might be able to help us.
