I go home and I 121 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 3: have some equipment at home that I could use. So 122 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 3: it's really twenty four to seven, just trying to stay 123 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: on top of it, do the best I can to 124 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 3: get back as fast as possible. 125 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 5: Do you feel like. 126 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 6: This affected the competition and do you like feel like 127 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 6: it's been a setback. 128 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 4: You can have had to miss time. 129 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, if you're like I said, if you're not 130 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 3: out there, I think it's a setback. You know, you 131 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 3: have to be out there playing and competing to win 132 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 3: a job. And I fully fully understand that. That's why 133 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 3: I'm pushing to get back, you know, as fast as possible. 134 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 7: It is possible be a silver lining. I know you 135 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 7: mentioned some of the positives, but could there be a 136 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 7: silver lining for you just in terms of what you 137 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 7: have to learn. 138 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 3: Mentally or could this have a Yeah, I'm happy it 139 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 3: happened early in camp, you know, and not three or 140 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: four weeks in, So I think that's a that's a 141 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: positive way to look at it. And like I said, 142 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 3: just getting the mental reps, you know, working more from 143 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 3: the pocket, so trying to spin in all those positive 144 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: ways that I could really come out better on the 145 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 3: other side of it. 146 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 5: Kind of off of. 147 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 10: That, is it a positive that you know, you've been 148 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 10: into the league now this is your fourth year that 149 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 10: it happened. You know, you have experience, you've been through 150 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 10: this a few years then compared to be it happened 151 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 10: like a rookie as a rookie, is there a difference there. 152 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say that too, you know, having experience 153 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 3: and having you know a lot of game snaps, you 154 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 3: know under my belt, a lot of practice reps under 155 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 3: my belt. I think it's definitely better that it happened 156 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 3: to a more veteran, a guy that has a little 157 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 3: bit more experienced versus a rookie. 158 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: Uh. 159 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 3: You know, that would make life even harder as a rookie. 160 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 3: But I'm glad I do have that aparents I can 161 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 3: kind of fall back on. 162 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 6: So you haven't been told when you can't go back 163 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 6: to King Jills, No, not yet. 164 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 7: In terms of your mobility that we already talked about 165 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 7: a little bit, But when you have a hamstring issue 166 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 7: as a more quarterback and that's kind of your superpower 167 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 7: in those competition, it seems to me that makes it 168 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 7: even trickier than if, say, like Joe. 169 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 3: Suffering has Joe can move a little bit, give me 170 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 3: give him some credit. No, yeah, it's like I said, 171 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: it makes it tougher. But that's the you know, it's 172 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 3: the game.

You know, training camps 190 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 11: the time where you're supposed to be bonding with everybody 191 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 11: and like getting to know all the young guys. But 192 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 11: then also you like you go out there and you 193 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 11: gain respect your like, you know, you earn that respect. 194 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 11: You know, you're watching people run full speed, making plays 195 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 11: and and it's just it's a time where you really 196 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 11: get close to your teammates. And that's really I think 197 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 11: the main part. Obviously, you want to get in shape. 198 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 11: But this is the main part of training camp is 199 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 11: really just building that bond with your teammates. 200 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 6: Shelby, what do you with the defense you have to 201 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 6: do to be better overall as a unit. 202 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 5: Than it was. 203 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 11: I say, eliminate the big play. You know, we would 204 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 11: like I look at a specific game like that Chargers game. 205 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 11: You know, you have a bunch of positive plays, and 206 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 11: then you have a couple where it's a big, big, 207 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 11: broken play and they scoring those and and that's the 208 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 11: difference between win and losing. So for us to take 209 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 11: the next step of the defense and to get back 210 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 11: on track, we got to really eliminate the big play. 211 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 11: But then also just you know, leaving each other go 212 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 11: out there play. You know, it should look like there's 213 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 11: thirteen guys on the field even though it's eleven. You know, 214 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 11: d line getting out of stack, running to the ball, 215 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 11: linebackers cleaning it up, and just everybody just you know, 216 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 11: playing a part. 217 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 5: Shelby, I'm sure you remember when you were a rookie. 218 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 10: As you're looking at Mason, what do you notice out 219 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 10: of him that you know he's picked up maybe faster, 220 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 10: you know than than the average rookie, and where do 221 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 10: you feel like he's at right now? 222 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 11: You know, I think there's a learning curve for anybody 223 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 11: that hasn't played this type of defense. You know, Mason's 224 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 11: coming from a redefense, and so what I and what 225 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 11: I do appreciate about him is he's putting in the 226 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 11: work to make this more of a second nature of 227 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 11: this coming off the ball, because it takes a lot 228 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 11: of work coming from a guy like me. 229 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 5: I was in a three four for eight nine years 230 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 5: of my career. 231 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 11: I come here year ten, and I have to teach myself, 232 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 11: you know, the differences and the nuances of this defense. 233 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 11: I think Mason's doing a good job staying in the playbook, 234 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 11: asking questions, you know, coming out early, getting the extra work, 235 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 11: you know, just pretty much just being a sponge and 236 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 11: taking everything you know, in his year and really just working. 237 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 9: There's sort of been I mean, I guess you've got 238 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 9: a little bit of a youth movement on that defense, 239 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 9: so you sort of embracing you being that leader and 240 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 9: helping helping these young guys come along. 241 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 11: Man, I'm young too, Like you know what I mean, 242 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 11: and you know what I'm thinking about, Like at the 243 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 11: end of the day in life.

Is it something injuried precautionary? 505 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, just. 506 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 5: Taking care of him. 507 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 8: Not yet, yes, more of what he did yesterday? 508 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 10: And can you comment on the offense in general yesterday 509 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 10: and in particular Gabriel A day as sloppy as it. 510 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 8: Uh, you know, it's is the old adage that it's 511 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 8: never as bad as you think, or never as good 512 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 8: as you think. As a coach, when you go in 513 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 8: to watch the tape, I would tell you, with any 514 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 8: of our players, in particular Dylan, who's wants to be 515 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 8: great and wants to be great at practice, there's times 516 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 8: that you're gonna go through a tough period out here 517 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 8: at practice, a tough seven on seven, a tough team period, 518 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 8: whatever it may be, and then you really try to 519 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 8: learn from those reps. 520 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 10: Kenny, how did you just in general, see you know 521 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 10: everything kind of see the answer this one in you. 522 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's pushing himself to get back to full team 523 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 8: periods as soon as possible. We're also going to be 524 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 8: you know, smart and and be appropriate with where he is. 525 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 5: But I thought he did a. 526 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 8: Nice job yesterday and we'll continue to, uh, you know, 527 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 8: work that day to day. 528 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 5: Kevin looked like. 529 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 4: Jerome might have rolled the ankle in there. One is okay, 530 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 4: he's okay. 531 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 6: Would your try and Troyka, I know he's switching from 532 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 6: the three four to four to three thin. 533 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 4: What do you guys think that can unlock it? 534 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 5: Yeah? 535 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 8: I think you see the skill set Scott, you see 536 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 8: big long speed. I mean he can really run, he 537 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 8: can really bend, and he's got great length. 538 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 5: So, uh, those are great traits. 539 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 8: To have when you're talking about coming out of a 540 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 8: three point stance or a two point stance. But I 541 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 8: think it's for us as just understanding the player, understanding 542 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 8: where you can move him around to maximize him. But 543 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 8: football's football, whether you're in a three four scheme or 544 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 8: a four down scheme. 545 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 5: He's really he's a good football player. 546 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 12: What do. 547 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 8: Yeah, great, he's you know, he's around a lot in 548 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 8: the spring. Teammates really like him. You know, he practices 549 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 8: very very hard, which I appreciate. Doesn't say a ton, 550 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 8: he's quiet, but uh yeah, it gets along really well. 551 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 5: With this group. 552 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 4: Carolina. 553 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 8: It's hard to say, Jeff, I'm really just focused on 554 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 8: today with a guy like Carold fan And. 555 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 4: Do you learn more about him once the pads go 556 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 4: on and what's guys concerned him a little bit? 557 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 8: I think you honestly, Dan, I think you learn about 558 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 8: everybody when the pads go on and there's and it's 559 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 8: more physical. Like we've talked a lot, in the offseason, 560 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 8: you have to take everything in the offseason with a 561 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 8: huge grain of salt because there's no contact. And then 562 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 8: once you finally get out here and you can have contact, 563 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 8: I think there's you make better evaluations of your players. 564 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 8: But also, for instance, Harold, you had a lot of 565 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 8: college tape to go off of, so you know what 566 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 8: the player is, uh, and then you want to see 567 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 8: how that translates to the to the field. 568 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 4: Because Harold's so young and it's still new to the position. 569 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 4: Would you say he's a head of schedule. Really hard 570 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 4: for me to say. 571 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 8: He's right where where I need him to be, right 572 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 8: where he should be, and we'll continue to grow, you 573 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,959 Speaker 8: know with him, he'll earn, he'll earn a role. It's 574 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 8: we're not giving those things out just yet. 575 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 4: Like most scene for this world camera, just in general offensive. 576 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 8: Again, I think it falls under the category of the 577 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,239 Speaker 8: guys are doing everything we're asking them to do. I 578 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 8: think they're practicing hard. I think they're understanding some of 579 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 8: the nuance in our scheme. They're certainly understanding some of 580 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 8: the new techniques that are being taught by their coaches. 581 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 8: So really have a pretty narrow focus when it comes 582 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 8: to where we are as a football team, just in general, 583 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 8: but certainly offensively, just focusing on making sure that they're 584 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 8: getting in understanding of the schemes and the techniques. In 585 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 8: the pastry guys on the fifties bradies, going back to. 586 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 5: That this year, I have no idea. 587 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 8: I think we're too far away to think about that. 588 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: That does it for today's from the Podium podcast.
