00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: where it's at from there.

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 2: Oh uh much do you Uh Is it just based

00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that'll just be a toleration thing with him. Yeah.

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 5: What did you learn maybe about the team during the

10
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 5: bid week when you guys got all got together.

11
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: Well, you know, we took uh we took a dive

12
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: into that right schematically, just to see where we were

13
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 1: and see what we're doing and see what we do well.

14
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: And you know there's some things that uh, I'm not

15
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: gonna get into the whole details of things, but you

16
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: know there's things in the run game that we gotta

17
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 1: get back to, even in the passing game, you know,

18
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: tweaking some things there and and some things that we

19
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: can help our you know, hopefully help our production you

20
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: know the next uh uh in the next six weeks

21
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: and then and ultimately just have some time away. You know,

22
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: we needed and as I said last week, we needed

23
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: uh you know, some rest and get refreshed and and

24
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, see where see where these next six weeks

25
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: ago last week you said, as far as changes go,

26
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: everything was on the table. Did you decide on any changes. Yes,

27
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: you'll share nothing that I'll share it this time.

28
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 4: And I I personally think that.

29
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: Just to be a little bit more clear on that,

30
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's sort of I say that to

31
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: say this that that a lot of these are in house,

32
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: and and these are things that that we we focus

33
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: on as a staff and as a team, and I

34
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: just don't think they need to be in the open right.

35
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 6: Now, you know, But what can you how to do

36
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 6: to get this offense jump started? Even it it travels

37
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 6: unable to go and it's mac a single digits the

38
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 6: last two weeks, And there's some things that you wanta

39
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 6: try that maybe I've tried or or I don't know

40
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 6: what k what can you do?

41
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: I mean, we gotta keep working, We gotta keep we

42
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: gotta keep you know, trying to put ours as a staff,

43
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: put our players in position to make plays on the field,

44
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: and then ultimately the players, you know, execute the game plan.

45
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: And again last week was about, you know, trying to

46
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: find ways to to do that. And and you know,

47
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna implement some things and and really

48
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: kind of get back to some things that I think

49
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: we're successful have been.

50
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 4: Successful for us.

51
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: And you know, uh, whether it's you know, rhythm, tempo, whatever,

52
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: you know, to try to try to get things going.

53
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: But ultimately, we just gotta we gotta focus as as

54
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: a staff, as players and just just continue to do

55
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: our jobs.

56
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 3: What's your assessment on how things have changed in the

57
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: way c J. Stroud?

58
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 5: As ever, but you know, obviously had a great rookie season.

59
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 5: Everybody's thought he was dam this big breakout year.

60
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 2: Then another breakout year this year, but clearly.

61
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 3: Off as some wind protection has been a little bit

62
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 3: of an ishi you So what do you what do

63
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 3: you make of how their offense has sort of been

64
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 3: pretty pretty inconsistent for most.

65
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 7: Of the season.

66
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: Well, you know, it's listen, it's this, this this league,

67
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: this business. Playing the quarterback position is hard, right, Playing

68
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: any position is hard. And he's an exceptional quarterback, good

69
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: young quarterback in this league that the league that the

70
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: league needs. It's a he's an exciting player. I don't

71
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: know everything that goes on down there, you know, I'm sure,

72
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: there's there's been there's been injury. You know, guys have missed,

73
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,119
Speaker 1: He's missed his his his playmakers from time to time.

74
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,839
Speaker 1: And and then there's there's the film. There's the film

75
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: out there, there's there's ways to you know, uh, what

76
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: he's put on film, you know, the explosive plays, things

77
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: of that nature. Defenses have time to to scheme that

78
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: right to play defense against it. So it's just it's

79
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: the it's the natural progression. And he's going to continue

80
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: to to make his plays and lead that football team

81
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: and and and continue to be a great player. And

82
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: he's just going to continue to get better each and

83
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: every game, each and every season. And and you know,

84
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: but I think one thing, if if and I don't

85
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: know CJ, you know personally other than just talking to

86
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: him when we play, but you know, he knows that

87
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: he's he's a piece of that offense, right, He's a

88
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 1: piece of that team, and he's going to continue to

89
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: improve and and get better to help his team, help

90
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: his team win, just like you know, just like Trevor

91
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: is here or you know, Josh Allen is here. You know,

92
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: they're one piece to the to the big picture, to

93
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: the whole pie.

94
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 5: Do you think, do you think in some ways, you know,

95
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 5: let's say Trevor is able to play that.

96
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: A lot of times it just comes down to the

97
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 3: quarterback getting help, particularly for the running game. And I

98
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 3: know your running game isn't where you want it to be.

99
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 5: And that's the Texans are certainly feel the same way

100
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 5: about their If a quarter if a really good quarterback

101
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 5: is not getting help from the running game, how difficult

102
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,239
Speaker 5: does it make it for that quarterback to have success?

103
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it's a challenge. I just think,

104
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's rare that you can just load

105
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: up your entire offense on one person, right, It's just hard.

106
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: It's hard for that person to go out and make

107
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: plays if the other ten guys aren't doing their job

108
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: right and or there's injury you know, within that unit.

109
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 4: So it just it just does make it. It does

110
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 4: make it a little more challenging.

111
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: And the run game is a big piece if you

112
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: if you're not successful running the ball, now they're going

113
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: to force you to throw it and they're gonna put

114
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 1: more guys in the box. They're gonna pressure more. You know,

115
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna get the ball out of your hand, and

116
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: then it becomes it becomes hard, you know, and and

117
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: so you need that piece. You need that element. To me,

118
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: that opens up your play action game, right, it opens

119
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: up the naked boot game, the movement game, the screen game,

120
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: all that stuff just becomes I think a little bit better.

121
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: You know, pieces of your offense.

122
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 7: Dude.

123
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 5: What's your message?

124
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 7: Did the team coming back?

125
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 4: Is it? I mean anything?

126
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 5: Yeah?

127
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: No, And again I I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep

128
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: all that messaging within within house. I I just don't

129
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: think that's a something that needs to be out. There's

130
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: just between me and the players. Yeah, I appreciate the question.

131
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: Did you see.

132
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 6: There were when they came back and you got them.

133
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 4: There together for the first time?

134
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 5: Did you see what fresh approach? Did you see weights

135
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 5: off their minds?

136
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 6: Did you see anything?

137
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 4: Yes?

138
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 3: You know, couldn't you?

139
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 5: Was that encouraging for you to see all left?

140
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 4: Yes?

141
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 5: Why?

142
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 7: It just was stematically? Did you did you guys dive

143
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 7: in on maybe some of the tendancies, just find some

144
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 7: things that you think, you know, hey, we need to

145
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 7: switch this up moving forward.

146
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 4: We didn't.

147
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 6: I know, you don't like you.

148
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 7: Can't get into it, Okay, both sides of the bold.

149
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 4: Yes, you need to make a decision at quarterback.

150
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 2: Do you are you comfortable waiting until Friday or or

151
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,679

152
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 4: Well, we'll find out today.

00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 4: You know, So that's that's positive. Anybody not gonna practice

158

Speaker 1: be a challenge if you let it. And and you know,

170
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: each day I walk into this building, I I choose

171
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: not to let it get me down. I choose to

172
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: be energetic around the football team. I choose a message

173
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: each week that I feel is important that the guys

174
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: need to hear and and and and then of course

175
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,400

176
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: different things that we do throughout the course and things

177
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,320

179
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: around us, and rightfully so, and then we understand that

180
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: around me, I understand that, but but I choose not

181
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: to listen to it, and I choose to go the

182
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: other way and be positive because you only get so

183
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: many days and so many opportunities in this league, and

184
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,080
