1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Hey, coach, how you doing. What's up?

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 2: Guys? Uh?

3
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: Coach?

4
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 3: I wonder if you believe in the in such a

5
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 3: thing as statement games that. If so, what kind of

6
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 3: statement do you think last night delivered to the rest

7
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 3: of the NFL and to the I guess to the

8
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 3: nation as all about this team.

9
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:22,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think just obviously having an opportunity to play

10
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 4: on prime time is is definitely something that you want

11
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 4: more of as an organization. As a team, you want

12
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,639
Speaker 4: to be able to play in those moments and have

13
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 4: those stages to perform. You know, we're really not as

14
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 4: concerned about the rest of the league in terms of

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 4: how they view us or you know, we obviously want respect,

16
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,919
Speaker 4: but that's ours to take. And you want to have

17
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 4: pride in what you do as as a team, as

18
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 4: an individual, as a coach, a player, as a staff member.

19
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 4: You want to have pride in what you do, and ultimately,

20
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 4: I think when you go out and win those type

21
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 4: of games, you know you can have pride and how

22
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 4: you walk and how you talk, and how you parent

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 4: and how you father and how you do everything you

24
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 4: have pride in what you're doing.

25
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: I think our players right now have confidence.

26
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 4: There's still a lot to clean up, but there's a

27
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 4: lot of confidence in this building right now.

28
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 3: Okay, And do you have anything on Brent and Strange

29
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 3: and Robert Hainsey.

30
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 4: I have not gotten any updates fully yet because we

31
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 4: had a little bit of a later morning.

32
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: I don't have any injury updates as of right now.

33
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: Thank you, Jamal, followed.

34
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 5: By Ryan Coach the Fire Trevor Lawrence Show during the

35
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 5: game last night. I know you mentioned it before. I mean,

36
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 5: how much do you like to see that from your quarterback?

37
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 4: Yeah?

38
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: I love it.

39
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 4: You know, he's so calm, cool for the most party,

40
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 4: very much lives in this kind of level world and

41
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 4: I appreciate that as well. But to see him extending

42
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 4: plays using his legs.

43
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: Competing the way he was competing.

44
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 4: Was the thing that I was very impressed with with

45
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 4: Trevor last night. To really you talk about competitive greatness.

46
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 4: We talk about competitive greatness all the time, and competitive

47
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 4: greatness as being your best when your best is required,

48
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 4: and regardless of what has happened, either you've thrown for

49
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 4: four hundred, you've thrown for one hundred, it doesn't matter.

50
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 4: Being your best when your best is required. In a

51
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 4: two minute drill, to go win the game. He makes

52
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 4: arguably two of his best throws of the game to

53
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 4: be TNDAMMI to put us in a position to go score,

54
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 4: and obviously you know the funk you play at the end,

55
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 4: but he was he willed himself.

56
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: He willed himself to get into the end zone.

57
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 4: He did it all night, using his legs, playing hard,

58
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 4: playing tough, showing some fire. I think our players did

59
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: feed off that and was really proud of the way.

60
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 5: He competed and he talked about the toughness and competitiveness

61
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 5: of this team. How much of that I mean goes back.

62
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 5: So you're trying to build and I mean back to

63
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 5: those offseason workouts.

64
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it started right right away.

65
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 4: You know, our off season strength conditioning program was difficult,

66
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 4: was was hard. Eric Ciano and his staff have really

67
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 4: done a nice job of kind of helping build the

68
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 4: foundation of the way and style in which we want

69
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 4: to play. You know, we had a really physical, tough

70
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 4: training camp, I think, and the guys just kept building

71
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 4: off that and really pouring into that mindset and then

72
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 4: it showed up so far within the first five weeks

73
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 4: of the season. Yeah, we've got to play a lot cleaner.

74
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 4: We've got to cut down on mistakes and communication and.

75
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: Some of that stuff.

76
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 4: But the toughness, the grit, it's just the way these

77
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 4: guys are playing right now.

78
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: When you play this way, typically.

79
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 4: Good things happen to you, like when you run to

80
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 4: the football, when you compete your tail off. Not every

81
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 4: play we know is in the NFL. It's not always

82
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 4: just the way you draw it up on the book.

83
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 4: Guys have to go out and perform and do it

84
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 4: at a high level. And right now, the way that

85
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 4: our guys are playing in all three phases allows us

86
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 4: to go give ourselves a chance to win in the

87
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 4: fourth quarter.

88
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: Coach, Thank you, Ryan, followed by Mark Hey leeam got

89
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 1: two for you.

90
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 5: First one, going back to start his practice, what did

91
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 5: Trayvon Walker tell you guys about how the how the

92
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 5: club felt and maybe hit expectation for him moving forward

93
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 5: this week?

94
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean we just he had some swelling still,

95
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 4: you know, in there, So it just wasn't the right time.

96
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 4: It was only seven days whatever, it was, seven days

97
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 4: out of the surgery, so it wasn't something that any

98
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 4: of us felt comfortable being able to go put him out.

99
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: There last night. Not sure what that'll look like this week.

100
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 4: Yet he was definitely feeling better towards the last night,

101
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 4: like towards yesterday, but it just wasn't.

102
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: The right thing to do putting him in that game.

103
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 4: So so hopeful, you know, for this week, and we'll

104
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 4: have to see what that swelling does and based on

105
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 4: when the stitches can come out, you know, I think

106
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 4: some of that will help us know his availability will

107
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 4: be sure. And then last for me is after you

108
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 4: win a game and you run into the locker room

109
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 4: to meet your team, do you know what you want

110
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 4: to say or is it an out of body experience

111
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 4: at that point? Yeah, I quickly, you know, gather some

112
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 4: thoughts with with some of the guys before I go

113
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 4: in and talk to the team. Last night was one

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 4: of the weirder ones, just because you're, like, you know,

115
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 4: the roller coaster of emotions. You had to settle in

116
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 4: for a moment, talk to Shane Waldron, Tony Basseli, James

117
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 4: and get a little bit of a grasp on what

118
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 4: just occurred. And but yeah, you're you're really kind of

119
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 4: working off raw emotion for the most part. You have

120
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 4: a couple points and people that you want to make

121
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 4: sure you acknowledge for the games.

122
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: That they played, but a lot of it. Yeah, it's

123
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: just kind of raw emotion. Gotcha, Thanks, Thank you.

124
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 5: Mark, followed by d rock Alum.

125
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: I have two as well.

126
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 4: What was the play gonna be before Trevor's trip play there?

127
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: And was it open?

128
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 4: It was a similar concept that we ran against Cincinnati

129
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 4: when Diami scored on the.

130
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: First drive of the game.

131
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 4: I think it was so Travis goes in a fly

132
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 4: motion into the flat and we had run crossers against Cincinnati,

133
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 4: and we faked crossers and went to the corners. You know,

134
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 4: he may have had a chance to throw to one

135
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,599
Speaker 4: of the guys in the back on a scramble, but

136
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 4: they played zone.

137
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: We're hoping for man. They played three deep, which kind

138
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: of they had been doing.

139
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 4: We were hoping for man or zero, which you know

140
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 4: that was kind of been his identity in some ways.

141
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 4: He played cover three, it might have been a chance

142
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 4: to find one of the guys in the back of

143
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 4: the end zones or just throw it away and play

144
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 4: the next NAF. But man, I mean he trips twice literally,

145
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 4: so I mean twice, and I feel like they kind

146
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 4: of lost him right, Like it's almost like what happened

147
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 4: when he goes down and they don't see him, and

148
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 4: he goes out the back door and just makes an

149
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 4: unbelievable play. And so you know, but it's really that

150
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 4: you want to finish that game with a well executed play, right,

151
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 4: that's what you want as a coach, but as a

152
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 4: player or for us moving forward to know we'll shoot. Yeah,

153
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 4: that was wild, but at least they took it. He

154
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 4: took it in his own hands. Sure, took it upon

155
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 4: himself to go and and fix a wrong, if you will, right,

156
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 4: not making a negative a double negative. He went and

157
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 4: made a negative a positive. And that is so much

158
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 4: about players, not us, right Like, it shows you that

159
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 4: the design truly meant nothing, and he's able to go

160
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 4: and make a play, which was huge for us in

161
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 4: that moment.

162
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: And then and then the go take it mentality motto

163
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: was that did that come?

164
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 4: Did that was organically come out of Cincinnati game like

165
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 4: feeling like you guys got robbed there? Or is this Yeah,

166
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 4: it's just like, look, we can't rely on anybody else

167
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 4: to come and look for help, right like, when we're

168
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 4: out there, when we're prepara, when we're in preparation, when

169
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 4: we are getting our minds ready to go play a

170
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 4: game in this league. We've been trying to just talk, well,

171
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 4: it's about us, It's about us in this room. If

172
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 4: you're looking for help, look to the guy next to you,

173
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 4: look to the other guys in this room. Because it's

174
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 4: not going to come elsewhere, and we can't leave it

175
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 4: up to anybody else, whether we win, lose, or draw.

176
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 4: We've got to take ownership and accountability for it. You know,

177
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 4: we can't put it in anybody else's hands. Don't look

178
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 4: for somebody else to go and make a play, don't

179
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 4: look for somebody else.

180
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: To bail you out. Just we got to go take it.

181
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 4: And I think that's been something that the players have

182
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 4: really voiced and talked about, is you know, they're the

183
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 4: ones playing, they're the ones out there, and so they

184
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 4: do have to go and take what they want in

185
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 4: terms of pride and respect.

186
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: Thank you you Rock, followed by Shipley.

187
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 5: Hey, Liam, Devin Lloyd maybe more than anybody else, is

188
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 5: he sort of embodying this franchise and kind of turn around.

189
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 4: Very much so Devn has been I think I said

190
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 4: this last week, Devin has been in this building with

191
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 4: these defensive coaches. I would say more than any other

192
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 4: player in this organization, especially on the defensive side of

193
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 4: the ball since we got here, Like how much he

194
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 4: poured into and the guys Tim and Campy have poured

195
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 4: into Devin, and Devin has poured into himself, has poured

196
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 4: into the coaches. He had a phenomenal summer, came back

197
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 4: in great shape, had a good training camp, and he's

198
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 4: been playing with a chip on his shoulder. You know,

199
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 4: he's been playing with a chip on his shoulder to

200
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 4: prove not just to us and to his teammates, but

201
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 4: I'm sure to a lot of other people, but really

202
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 4: for himself, for self, respect, for pride. He's a talented

203
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 4: player that we know going back to college, has been

204
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 4: somebody that has always been around the ball, has made

205
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 4: plays as a rusher, dropping in coverage ball skills.

206
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 1: I didn't think he had the move, but he has on.

207
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 4: A few of his interceptions made people miss and he's

208
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 4: got some skills.

209
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: Man.

210
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 4: So really proud of Devin because of the time that

211
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 4: he has put into this, both individually and with the coaches.

212
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 3: And Jonah comes in after hands he gets hurt.

213
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 5: What kind of job did he do?

214
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 4: You should have sat on the BT completion down the

215
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 4: right sideline. He had Chris Jones one on one and

216
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 4: he was holding his own and Lea Quinn Allen came

217
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 4: in and ended up chipping through, which really also helped it.

218
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 4: But he wasn't getting beat. He held his own. He

219
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 4: did a nice job. Everybody's got a lot of confidence

220
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 4: in Jonah. He's earned it there. There really was no flinch.

221
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 2: You know.

222
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 4: Those guys got a couple snaps on the sidelines, communicated.

223
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 4: There was no issues with Jonah at all. I don't

224
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 4: think that there was anything that you could take away

225
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 4: that he heard us or wasn't ready for the moment

226
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 4: or the stage. He's got a lot of respect from

227
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 4: from the players in this locker room. Thanks, thank you.

228
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 5: Last two Shipley followed by Mia Liam talking about Jonah

229
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 5: and Lequent now having two seven round rookies out there

230
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 5: on a big drive. What does that say about your

231
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 5: guys being able to develop and.

232
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: Being you know, willing to let these guys play it.

233
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 5: Then James scouting finding two guys in seven brown and

234
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 5: go in that and help you.

235
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, huge, you know, James, I think and his staff

236
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 4: did a really diligent job when it came to our

237
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 4: draft preparation with with obviously the picks, but also the

238
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 4: guys that we were trying to acquire late later on,

239
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 4: whether it's in the seventh round.

240
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,119
Speaker 1: Or in free agency.

241
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 4: You know, you got two seventh round rookies playing on

242
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 4: the last final drive of the game on Monday Night

243
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 4: football against Kansas City Chiefs, and those guys are helping

244
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 4: us win.

245
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: They're not. We're not winning in spite of them, which

246
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: is a pretty cool deal.

247
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 4: And I told the staff really going back to the spring,

248
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 4: but especially reiterated it when we came back as a

249
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 4: staff for training campos, guys, we are going to play

250
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 4: young players.

251
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: We're going to play rookies.

252
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 4: We're going to play young players, and we cannot be

253
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 4: afraid of that. We cannot be afraid to say we're

254
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 4: going to go and we have to live with some

255
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 4: of the youth, and some of those mistakes may occur,

256
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 4: but we do have an opportunity to mold them and

257
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 4: reach them at this moment when they're so impressionable. And

258
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 4: sometimes as a coach, you always want to defer to

259
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 4: the vet. You always want to defer the VET because

260
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 4: of the experience. It's like, no different than high school

261
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 4: when you want to defer to the senior and not

262
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 4: play the freshman or the sophomore.

263
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: It's no different.

264
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 4: But that being said, when those young guys can step

265
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 4: up and help you, they've brought energy to us, They've

266
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 4: brought a little swagger to us, and Laquin specifically, you know,

267
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 4: really proud of those guys and the guys that have

268
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 4: helped develop them as well.

269
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: Thanks, thank you.

270
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 2: Kind of building off of that, Liam, if you could

271
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 2: evaluate the pass rush, especially opposite Josh heinz Allen with

272
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 2: Smoot and Ogba stepping in, I don't really know if

273
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 2: did Bj get much run off the edge, and I

274
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: know Gard it got a little bit of run too

275
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 2: opposite Josh.

276
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think we were great, you know, I

277
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 4: do think we were at times effective.

278
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: The frustrating thing was we let them get out too

279
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: many times. You know.

280
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 4: I do think that there was some moments like when

281
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 4: we did when we were able to pressure them. I

282
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 4: think we were able to get a little bit more.

283
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 4: But I did think Smooth was active in the rush.

284
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 4: I thought he might have got grabbed a few times

285
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 4: when he had maybe some clear lanes to the to

286
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 4: the quarterback where he was going to go make a play.

287
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 4: I do think they played their tails off up front.

288
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 4: We just didn't really affect him maybe as much as

289
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 4: we would have liked to going into the plan.

290
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: It's a double edged sword with with Mahomes where you're like,

291
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 1: you want to.

292
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 4: Make sure you have vision on him, especially when he

293
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 4: was getting some scrambles, and it's hard as a rusher

294
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 4: against him because you have to be so disciplined at

295
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 4: times it takes away from their ability to just go

296
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 4: because they have to be so disciplined within their rush

297
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 4: lanes and balancing the rush. Sometimes that slows rushers down

298
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 4: and actually can be a negative. So when we did

299
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 4: blitz and we you know, obviously we got to pick

300
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 4: six and we you know, did cause a little confusion.

301
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 4: But he can also spit it and get out of

302
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 4: his hand pretty quick against blitz. You know, it's a balance.

303
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 4: And I think that those guys are getting better.

304
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: Each week and one more for me, just to Travis's usage,

305
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 2: the idea of getting him down feel more. Was that

306
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 2: a point of emphasis this week this past week during

307
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 2: practice and knowing full well and you've been transparent with

308
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: us in terms of what you guys are putting on

309
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: his plate his rookie year in terms of which wide

310
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 2: receiver positions he will play. Is that expanding as we

311
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 2: progress throughout the season.

312
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look, he made some unbelievable plays last

313
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 4: night that not a lot of you know, we just

314
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 4: haven't seen a ton of yet. And we that play

315
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 4: that those two connected on on a great catch that

316
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 4: Travis made. They literally stayed after practice.

317
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: On you know, I don't know what even day we.

318
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 4: Are in, but the after our red zone day, our

319
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 4: last practice, and they through that five times after practice.

320
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 4: Five times we missed it, missed it, missed it, made it,

321
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 4: missed it, and.

322
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: Just wanted to get it down right.

323
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 4: And so you know, you look at Travis taking the

324
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 4: time with Trevor after practice to go and get something

325
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 4: right and then for it to come to life in

326
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 4: a huge moment in the game kind of just speaks

327
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 4: to what he's kind of doing for us in so

328
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 4: many ways. And then being able to make people miss

329
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 4: in space, getting them the ball in space is something

330
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 4: that he's pretty creative doing, and yeah, we want to

331
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 4: keep upping it. I thought him BT definitely stepped up

332
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 4: and took a step in the right direction in the past,

333
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 4: game last night, and I do believe that Travis's only

334
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 4: getting better and better
