But like, uh, as it pertains 35 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 4: to the passing game, you wanna try to complete the 36 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 4: easy passes first, both for the quarterback and the receiver, 37 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 4: just to get that rhythm going. 38 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 9: You know. 39 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 4: Once I get the ball in my hands on a 40 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 4: on on like a easy catch, I'm ready to go. 41 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 4: I'm ready to I'm ready to light it up.

So ba and forty, yeah, is 49 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 6: a number twenty four staying out when you're watching film 50 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 6: with the Ravens, do you dB, Yeah, he always stands out. Actually, 51 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 6: he he's a great player. And I know last year 52 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 6: was my first year of playing with him. 53 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 4: He didn't play every game, but every time he played, 54 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 4: I noticed him out there one hundred percent. 55 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 7: He kind of left her on bad turns to that and. 56 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: Then at all. 57 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 6: You think any w way in in our locker. 58 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 4: Room or yeah, yeah for you guys, I mean, he 59 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 4: he's not he's no one but a part of the team. 60 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 4: So I don't I don't really see how it's getting 61 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 4: can have a linger in effect and him leaving on 62 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 4: bad terms. That's subjective. That's what thing you said i'd 63 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 4: be so I don't see it. 64 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 7: No, that was that was. 65 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 6: Probably the best game you've had with DeShawn. 66 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 11: How far has your connection kind of come since you. 67 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 9: First got here? 68 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 4: Do you think that's interesting? How much you know communication 69 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: could help do with the wide receiver and quarterback relationship. 70 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 4: Now we just communicate, you know, we're not shying away 71 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 4: from even over communicator cause we just tryna.

We definitely need to have chemistry. 74 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: So it's getting better and better every week. And what 75 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 4: kind of communication goes on?

Also when we uh do some movements out 97 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 4: of empty he's able to understand what for coverage they're 98 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 4: running and things like that. 99 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 6: So it definitely helps of ri. 100 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 10: Did y'all last week praised your communication with him in 101 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 10: the last week's games.

It all depends on what we both need from 109 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 6: the truck. 110 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 9: Really. 111 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 4: With Deshaun, obviously, it's gonna be the case because you know, 112 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 4: kind of getting on and offs with with our uh chemistry, not. 113 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 6: In terms of what's that, what's doing, what's going on 114 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 6: on the field, but in. 115 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 4: Terms of the time he's got here, you know, you know, 116 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 4: him not playing games and then him comes back meeting 117 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: and hurt. So we never really got that opportunity to 118 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 4: just go full speed together that much.

It's a unique scheme really on all all 587 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 9: sides of the ball, but really well coached.

They're doing a lot 592 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 9: of really really interesting tough things to cover in the 593 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 9: back end. And obviously, you know with Lamar always presents 594 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 9: all sorts of challenges for a defense, but really good 595 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 9: players across the board defensively, a ton of respect for 596 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 9: what they do, how they do it, can be aggressive, 597 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 9: can play coverage, they have playmakers really at all three 598 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 9: levels of the defense, really good football players. And then 599 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 9: special teams. You know, you know you're gonna get an 600 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 9: honest day's work versus a coach hardball team when it 601 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 9: comes to team. So really got to be about our business, 602 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 9: but looking forward to the challenge and with that, I'll 603 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 9: take any questions. 604 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 10: Their new offensive seeing achieve what Lamar. 605 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 7: Does or has it really just what he did. 606 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think there's a few big differences, and then 607 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,400 Speaker 9: there's a lot of similarities to what they've done before. 608 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 9: They've carried over certain elements of their offense that will 609 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 9: look very similar, and then there's other elements, especially with 610 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 9: some of the personnel grouping, that are very different. But 611 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 9: he's getting the ball out on time accurately. 612 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 10: Uh. 613 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 9: His completion percentage is very high, and I think that 614 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 9: speaks to uh both the coaching and the player doing 615 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 9: a great job in that scheme. 616 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 6: Marty said, and you see something during the game, don't 617 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 6: tell you that you're calling.

But 651 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 9: uh he he's you know, playing really well for us, 652 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 9: big part of what we do. But being have having 653 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 9: the versatility to play inside and outside. Uh, so he's uh, 654 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 9: we're excited to get him back. 655 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 3: That the communications you want us a more cosmicating silence 656 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: and are as. 657 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 6: Helpful as that to continue to go to. 658 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, I I think there's so much nuance to offensive football, 659 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 9: and I think there's so many details when you're talking 660 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 9: about route running, and Amari, for my money's the best 661 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 9: in the business it when it comes to route running. 662 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 9: And for him to explain to the quarterbacks why he's 663 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 9: running a rout a certain way and what he's gonna 664 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 9: do at the top of the router or what he's 665 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 9: gonna do to set up a a a defensive back. 666 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 9: I think that goes a long way to put comfort 667 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 9: in the quarterback that he can know when to let 668 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 9: the ball go. 669 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 7: Mm hmm. 670 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 12: What would be trying to watch more scans on football 671 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 12: when it's its face or. 672 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 8: Whatever while the numbers might not see all that and 673 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 8: press Just from a coaching. 674 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 12: Perspective, how do how do you feel that that is 675 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 12: is going. 676 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 6: And what he's trying to do. 677 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, I would say it's game three, So there's certain 678 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 9: things that you wanna grow, there's certain things that you're 679 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 9: trying to set up for later. You're trying to uh 680 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 9: make yourself hard to defend. But ultimately we think very 681 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 9: highly of number eight. And like I've told you guys before, 682 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 9: I think he's good outside, in side, backfield, really anywhere 683 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 9: you put 'em. Uh So, just a player that you know, 684 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 9: when you're going into this week, you know that Baltimore 685 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 9: is somebody wearing number eight jersey and following 'em all 686 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 9: around the formation. Uh So, and they'll have certain calls 687 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 9: when he's here and when he's there. So just always 688 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 9: kind trying to grow those packages, but also recognizing that 689 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 9: things evolve over the c over the course of a season. 690 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 7: Yeah. 691 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 9: I think uh JD the entire front very very disruptive. 692 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 7: Uh. 693 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 9: They do a really nice job mary kay in the 694 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 9: run game. Uh on the edges. 695 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 7: Uh. 696 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 9: Being penetrators inside past game, they can give you a 697 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 9: variety of different looks. So uh they have a bunch 698 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 9: of different guys that can hurt you. But he's doing 699 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 9: a nice job. 700 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 7: Category of we always have something to complain about. 701 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 9: So Okay, at two point five yard Russian Georgion, you 702 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 9: con of the thirty times in different ways? Is that 703 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 9: at all study sources from this last game, it was 704 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 9: two point five. That's a very good run front. We 705 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 9: knew that going into it. Uh Ay, that's kind of 706 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 9: where I put it. I didn't even know what the 707 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,719 Speaker 9: number was. But uh y, you're trying to be balanced 708 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 9: you're trying to find ways to move the football. But 709 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 9: each game is different and UH. There there's games you 710 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 9: go in and and you say, Okay, this is gonna 711 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 9: be a challenge. We're gonna stick with it. Uh. We 712 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 9: like our matchups here. We like this type of run. UH, 713 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 9: but every game, every game plan calls for a different 714 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 9: uh set of uh schemes. If you will first game 715 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 9: shove the adjustment to the whole rounces well, I think 716 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 9: any adjustment would be gradual. We ran our plays. UH. Again, 717 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 9: when you're going up against a front like Tennessee, Uh, 718 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 9: I think there were number one against the run last year. 719 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 9: I know what their numbers are this year. But there's 720 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 9: certain things that you're you're gonna do and then there' 721 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 9: certain things that you're not gonna do. 722 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 6: Uh. 723 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 9: And I think that goes without saying. This week, I 724 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 9: think this Baltimore defense is really, really tough. I think 725 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 9: coach McDonald does a great job of tying in Russian coverage. UH. 726 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 9: There's a variety of things that you have to be 727 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 9: very aware of. So it's our job as coaches to 728 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 9: look at it and say, Okay, where where do we 729 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 9: want to what do we want to lean into. Who 730 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 9: do we want to lean into from a personnel standpoint, 731 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 9: those type of things. 732 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 6: When it comes a little bit of slow start to catch. 733 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 11: The kind of world and kind of a person kind 734 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 11: of whatever world. 735 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 13: Yeah. 736 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 9: Again, i'd say early in the season for making looking 737 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 9: at it in terms of catches. But he's made a 738 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 9: huge impact for us already. I think when we're having 739 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 9: success on offense, he's very close to why we're having success. 740 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 7: Uh. 741 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 9: He gets a ton of attention from defenses. Uh In 742 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 9: the past game, he does a great job competing in 743 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 9: the run game. I can think back to a few 744 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 9: plays in the last few weeks that are are only 745 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 9: having success because he's at the point of attack. 746 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 2: Uh. 747 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 9: So he's a very very complete tight end in terms 748 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 9: of number of catches and those type of things. I 749 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 9: think all that comes over the course of the season. 750 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 4: No games, Roget and. 751 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 10: Your support. 752 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 7: Continue. 753 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, It's it's interesting cause you know, they have a 754 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 9: new coordinator, We have a new coordinator, uh s a 755 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 9: lot of new players on both sides of the ball. 756 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 9: So we obviously have our there's coaches that have been 757 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 9: here over those games like you, like you mentioned, so 758 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 9: we talk about it. But I this is a twenty 759 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 9: twenty three matchup Ravens versus Brown. So I don't know 760 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 9: how much you can go back and and look, cause 761 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 9: things are so different on both sides. 762 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 12: Uh. 763 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 9: Having said that, you take every available amount of information, 764 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 9: uh that you previously have going up against these guys 765 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 9: as you put your game plan together. 766 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 6: Yet you talk about kind. 767 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 10: Of off of that, you talk about the aggressiveness this defense, 768 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 10: your defense plays. 769 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 7: He took the front. 770 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 10: He bounce that aggression, aggressiveness with a you know, obviously 771 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 10: needing to be disciplined. 772 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 7: With a guy like Lamar and you know, uh who 773 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 7: is so elusive and he can turn what looks like 774 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 7: a loss. 775 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, I I think you have to play your defense, uh, certainly. 776 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 9: Uh So you have to play your style of defense, 777 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 9: recognizing that Lamar's a great player. He's gonna make plays 778 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 9: on Sunday. 779 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 7: We know that. 780 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 9: Uh, it's just a matter of how much you can 781 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 9: s try to slow him down, try to limit him. Uh, 782 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 9: play your style of defense, be sound in what you do, 783 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 9: but also ultimately recognize that this is a great player 784 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 9: that we're talking about. 785 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,959 Speaker 8: And Lamar talked about the value of those early completions. 786 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 11: You guys said how much can you talk to about 787 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 11: that is with it an adjustment from. 788 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 9: How I'm playing to be earlier For I don't know 789 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 9: that it's an adjustment. I think every game you're going 790 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 9: into your trying to get the quarterback in the rhythm, 791 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 9: trying to get completions. Sometimes they and they can come 792 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 9: in a variety of different play schemes if you will. Uh, 793 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 9: I think a lot of it is match up based 794 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 9: and what we're trying to accomplish early in games. But 795 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 9: every game you're going in trying to get your quarterback 796 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 9: completions if you can. 797 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 2: As this week what you. 798 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 9: Yeah, great player, very very very good ball skills as 799 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 9: we know, can win contested catches, can dangerous with the 800 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 9: ball in his hands. They have a really nice wide 801 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 9: receiver corps. Adding Ze Flowers to the mix of the 802 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 9: guys that they already have. I mean, it's it's an 803 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 9: impressive group and I see more. 804 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 10: How does. 805 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 9: It's a It's it's really tough when you're facing a 806 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 9: running quarterback, and uh, I think teams when they're facing 807 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 9: us understand that there's plays that are they're never over 808 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 9: because these guys can get out of trouble. They can 809 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 9: extend plays they can run, So you have to be 810 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 9: so disciplined in in what you're doing, whether it's man's 811 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 9: own pressure or not. You have to just be ultimately 812 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 9: UH disciplined in your rush lanes, disciplined in in what 813 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 9: you're seeing UH, because he he is a major threat 814 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 9: with the ball in his hands. 815 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 6: Statistically on either side of the ball. 816 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 7: Given the money. 817 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 9: I I don't know. I mean, I think with a 818 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 9: new system, new offense coordinator, that's the biggest differences I've seen. 819 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 9: But I don't know that I could say they've changed 820 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 9: stylistically based on injuries. 821 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 6: A couple one under the number, did you. 822 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 7: Quarterback? 823 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 6: You haven't seen games? 824 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 9: N Yeah, I don't. I don't know. I I think 825 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 9: he played UH at a high level. I see I 826 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 9: see him playing at a high level at practice. You know, 827 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 9: I've seen it in games. So it's just a continuation 828 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 9: of the work he's putting in general. 829 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 6: Like the first half last week that the nables we saw, 830 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 6: is that an example of this? 831 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 9: He played really really well last week. He plays well 832 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 9: for us all the time, but I thought he was UH. 833 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 9: He played as good as I've seen him play UH 834 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 9: in his career. So smart in that play that you're 835 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 9: referencing is a great example of uh that cour Ryan 836 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 9: Tannehill looked completely uh uh the other way did a 837 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 9: great job. You tell quarterbacks t eyes away and he 838 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 9: went hard, eyes away, and Awalk didn't bite, He didn't 839 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 9: buy it. He stayed in his lane and got a 840 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 9: hand on the ball. I think Denzel had good coverage 841 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 9: on that play, but it was a great example of 842 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 9: the quarterback. Young players, you'll see the second the quarterback 843 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 9: puts his head that way, they'll go. And Awalk kind 844 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,399 Speaker 9: of knew what was going on, knew the coverage, knew 845 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 9: where where number ten was for them, uh, and did 846 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 9: a nice job getting his hand in the window sewing 847 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 9: your play. Dot Com, I'm sorry one time, I do 848 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 9: I do. 849 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: That's Today's from the Podium podcast.
