1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: I built. I just wanted to ask you about Antonio

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Brown right off to that, as the team made it

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: officially yesterday. What kind of work does he have to

4
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: do to get ready? It's a two part question. What

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: kind of work does he have to do to get

6
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: ready and assimilate him himself to the program in the offense,

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: and what kind of work does the coaching staff have

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: to do to help him and prepare him? Right, Well,

9
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: we'll just take it day by day. We haven't practiced yet,

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: and so we're going through information with him like we

11
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: was any new player, like we did with offensive lineman

12
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: last week, and let's take it day by day and

13
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: see how it goes, you know, on the practice field

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: after Wednesday, talk about Thursday, and let's go through the

15
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: week to see how it goes. And Bill, does it

16
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: help that you had a player and Josh Gordon who

17
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: went through kind of a similar process last year, you know,

18
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: joining the team for five against the Colts, The fact

19
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: that the team has experience and integrating a new player

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: like this, especially an offensive weapon you know, in in

21
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: mid season, as it were, Again, each situation is different,

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: each players different. The game that he's coming in for obviously,

23
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: as a different game plan. So we'll just we'll just

24
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: have to take it on a case by case basis.

25
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 1: We've we've had every year, we've had players come onto

26
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: the team that weren't with the teams that started the

27
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: season at various points in the year. In all three

28
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: phases of the game, it's basically the same process. The

29
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: what the role is, how fast the process goes, and

30
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: all that just depends on each individual situation. So we'll see.

31
00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: Thank you, Bill, Next question Mike Greece, followed by Doug Kine.

32
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: Thanks Bill, Just to follow up on that, just what

33
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: is it about him as a player that you know,

34
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: what traits does he have that you'd like to work with? Well,

35
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: we think we will help our team, but until we

36
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: start working with him, that's part of that is actually

37
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: having a hands on opportunity to work with a player

38
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: and see exactly how everything fits together and what we

39
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: can develop. So we'll just have to see how that goes.

40
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: And then looking ahead to this week, how much of

41
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: a link would would you draw to this game Week

42
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: two in Miami against one of your former defensive coaches,

43
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: Brian Flores, and then last year's Week three game in Detroit,

44
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: against one of your former coaches in Matt Patricia, just

45
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: in terms of the challenging dynamic of going against a

46
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: former coach who knows you guys very well, you know

47
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: how to though, How does that situation create a challenge

48
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: for you? Yeah, I don't know. It's two totally different games. Obviously,

49
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: the players are a lot different, which definitely affects any coach.

50
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: And last year was last year or so we're really

51
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: just focused on this year's game. I'm sure it's an

52
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: interesting story to look at that. I really don't know

53
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: when and I guess to follow on that, just when

54
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: you're going up against someone that I maybe has more

55
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: knowledge of the personnel just from having been with them.

56
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: Does that affect you, guys in terms of maybe going outside,

57
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: maybe maybe doing things differently just to keep it unpredictable

58
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: based on maybe their knowledge of you or is that

59
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: overthinking it? Do you think I would put it in

60
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: that category? I mean, we played teams every week that

61
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: have players and coaches that we're here, and we have

62
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: a lot of times players and coaches that we're on

63
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: that team that we're playing, So that's pretty common in

64
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: the NFL. I think every team goes through that. Um,

65
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: but we'll we'll have him every week. Uh, you know

66
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: you can write that story certainly in the coming weeks.

67
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: So it's it's all, it's the same every week. I

68
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: think that's way overrated. Yeah, our next question Doug Kaite,

69
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: followed by Tom Curran and Bill. It seems like you

70
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: guys have John pretty heavy on the wide receivers this season.

71
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: Seven eight players on the active roster and then uh,

72
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: Harry and merediths on the reserve list. How is Joe

73
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: Judge handeled coaching such a big position group since his

74
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: first year of the position? Yeah, Jo joson outstanding job. He's,

75
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,559
Speaker 1: you know, very good coach. He understands the game well. Um,

76
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: works very hard, very good fundamentals and um, you know,

77
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: Joe picks up things, concepts and coaching points quickly. And

78
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: he and Josh worked well together at that position. Troys

79
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 1: then a great addition too to help us in with

80
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: some receiver with the receiver. So I think all this

81
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: guy has done a good job. Thanks, You're welcome, Hey Bill, Tom, Um,

82
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: what makes you confident that Antonio Brown won't be as

83
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 1: disruptive here as he was with Oakland or Pittsburgh And

84
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: was it difficult for you to reconcile what he was

85
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: coming off last week in Oakland with bringing him aboard? Well,

86
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: I wasn't one of those places, so I really can't

87
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: comment on what did or didn't happen there. Well, it's

88
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: pretty well documented in both places that I'm pretty disruptive.

89
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: What makes you confident that he won't be that way here?

90
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: That's the same thing you said about Randy Moss when

91
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: we got brought him in, So me collectively, Oh, our

92
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: next question, Mike Giardi and if he went else wants

93
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: to ask a question? Hit five star? Now stay, I'm

94
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: all that som just I'll just ask my questions, all right.

95
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: I don't see any other hands raised, Um, I guess.

96
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, coach. Okay, thank you
