WEBVTT - Press Pass: Doug Pederson

0:00:04.440 --> 0:00:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh, did you see what you wanted to see off?

0:00:06.680 --> 0:00:10.479
<v Speaker 1>Desinitely for the first team, and then I did. I did.

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 1>I was pleased with uh obviously the way the way

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 1>they played. Um again, um got great work uh for

0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:21.600
<v Speaker 1>two days against the Dolphins. Uh, you know, Monday and Tuesday,

0:00:21.640 --> 0:00:23.720
<v Speaker 1>and and uh we got a couple of scores. You know,

0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Tory and all Sham both so happy to uh get

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.080
<v Speaker 1>them in there and get them out the joint sessions

0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of scale back what you wanted from the first team.

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Didn't feel like you had to play as much. Yeah,

0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:37.520
<v Speaker 1>they got a lot of a lot of great work

0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:40.040
<v Speaker 1>for two days and and you know, you think about it,

0:00:40.080 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 1>we don't really play full football games on forty eight

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:44.720
<v Speaker 1>hours rest. And uh, you know they they Monday Tuesday

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:47.959
<v Speaker 1>was was pretty intense for for for both teams. Um,

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:50.280
<v Speaker 1>I felt like we got some good work. So uh

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:51.920
<v Speaker 1>that's that was part of the reason why why I

0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:54.320
<v Speaker 1>was able to pull them out soon. Doug, assuming this

0:00:54.360 --> 0:00:56.720
<v Speaker 1>is in for Carson and the starters for the preseason,

0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>do you feel good enough what you've seen, especially with

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 1>receivers you know, getting touchdowns today? Yeah, I do. I do.

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel real comfortable with where they're at um. You know,

0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>their focus obviously now is is uh in in a

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks and um, you know they can get

0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>some get some really good work, you know, one on

0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:14.440
<v Speaker 1>one work and in the in these next few practices

0:01:14.480 --> 0:01:16.959
<v Speaker 1>and and um, you know, kind of get ready for

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:19.520
<v Speaker 1>for the regular season. So happy to get both those

0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:21.800
<v Speaker 1>guys tonight in the end zone and uh kind of

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 1>kind of catapult the offense. Uh, you know into the

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:29.119
<v Speaker 1>regular season, the offensive line obviously the Carson as well

0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 1>as you like about the thing, what was it? What

0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:34.560
<v Speaker 1>were the problems? Uh, you got a lot of a

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>lot of pressure. Yeah, there were a couple of unscouted blitzes.

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Um again you know a preseason game, things that they

0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't show obviously even and uh because we didn't do

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:45.840
<v Speaker 1>any blitz periods in our in our sessions, uh the

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 1>other day and and um, you know, a couple of

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>unscouted looks. But you know it's it's no excuse. We've

0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 1>we've got to be ready for for for everything and anything.

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 1>And uh, just a lot of quick pressure on Carson.

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Um a couple of times he was able to make

0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.640
<v Speaker 1>some make some tremendous plays and get the ball out

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 1>of his hand. But at the same time, we got

0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 1>to do better obviously in that situation and learn from

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:07.440
<v Speaker 1>it and move on. Would you have bet for going

0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:11.840
<v Speaker 1>to play water and um, I don't think so. I

0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>think I would have made the decision at that point.

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:17.360
<v Speaker 1>At the same time, Yeah, how tough is it to

0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 1>choose the running back position. But the way it looks

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:25.960
<v Speaker 1>like the finals of guy guys might find you know,

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I think that first of all, we're I

0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>was excited to get Windel out there obviously, get some

0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 1>get some touches and and get him back, you know,

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 1>working with the with the first unit and um la,

0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:39.280
<v Speaker 1>Garrett had a had a fine game and the touches

0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 1>that he got and and and really, um you saw

0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of kind of you know, the style of

0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.119
<v Speaker 1>runner that that he is as well, and and there

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>and they're two different guys. I mean. The thing is,

0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:50.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's the that's the beauty of the run

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 1>game is you can you can mix and match your

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.800
<v Speaker 1>run game with the personnel that you have, so um

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and then and then you throw in Darren, you know,

0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Sprowls and um you know, it's it's great to have

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.680
<v Speaker 1>those three guys I think it really gives us, UM,

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 1>I think a little bit of a from from a

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:08.200
<v Speaker 1>game planning standpoint obviously, UM an advantage to get those

0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>three guys on the field. You choose between they're making

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 1>it tough. I challenged the challenge the young guys tonight

0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:18.160
<v Speaker 1>after the game that you know this next week is

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:20.760
<v Speaker 1>going to be important, and uh, I want them to

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:22.799
<v Speaker 1>make it hard on us as as a coaching staff

0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:26.359
<v Speaker 1>and a personnel department. Um. And and that's that's all

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>we can ask is it is make it tough on

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:30.320
<v Speaker 1>us and and uh but at the end of the day,

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:33.640
<v Speaker 1>we've got to select the fifty three that uh uh

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 1>is gonna gonna travel to Washington three games now without fools.

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:39.120
<v Speaker 1>What's going on with his elbow and what's the plan

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 1>for him this week? Again? Just uh um you know,

0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:44.880
<v Speaker 1>with him, it got a little sore, uh during the

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:46.880
<v Speaker 1>week with with the Dolphins, a lot of throws, you know,

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.600
<v Speaker 1>because he missed so much time early in camp and

0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:53.840
<v Speaker 1>then we're going coming back and and got more more throws,

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>more intense throws against the Dolphins and just got a

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>little little sore on him, and so I just didn't

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>want to push him you know. Just again, the more

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>or rest uh that you can get on that elbow,

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 1>the better. And UM, you know I'm confident with with

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Nick having coached him in the past and being a

0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:11.880
<v Speaker 1>veteran quarterback and understanding our system, so UM, you know,

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>the rest will definitely help him. Would you like to

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:17.560
<v Speaker 1>see him next? I don't know. I haven't made up

0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:22.599
<v Speaker 1>my mind yet where I'm at with that. Um you know, Uh,

0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:24.000
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of where I'm at right now with that

0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 1>one yellow receivers as well, similar to the to the

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:32.480
<v Speaker 1>rotting back position. Uh. Are those guys making a difficult

0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 1>markets price, uh, potentially for that last spot they are? Um,

0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.960
<v Speaker 1>and again it's uh you know, UM, I can remember

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.240
<v Speaker 1>myself being in that situation, even as a third or

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 1>fourth string quarterback, just just fighting and clawing for everything

0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>and and and the exciting thing is these guys are

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.960
<v Speaker 1>making plays when they're in the game, and UM, you

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:52.880
<v Speaker 1>know this this next week is going to be important

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:55.720
<v Speaker 1>for all those guys that that are vying for those positions.

0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:59.360
<v Speaker 1>And and again it goes back to um making hard

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>on us for for those final roster spots, and and um,

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:03.960
<v Speaker 1>it's good to see all those guys you know, it's

0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:05.960
<v Speaker 1>good to see Bryce back out there again and playing.

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 1>And um, you know Greg Ward and Mac and all

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:13.159
<v Speaker 1>those guys. Marcus had a nice touchdown reception tonight. So um,

0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:15.479
<v Speaker 1>it's good competition right there at that spot. You know,

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 1>the sideline offers unliving. But for Darby there were two

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:22.800
<v Speaker 1>big plays game. What should get come better on those plays? Well,

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:24.720
<v Speaker 1>I gotta you know, go back obviously, look at the

0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 1>film and and we can decide and make that decision.

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 1>But um, obviously it was a great catch. The one

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:31.360
<v Speaker 1>over the top of him was a great catch. Felt

0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:34.680
<v Speaker 1>like he was in good position, you know. Um. And

0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:37.520
<v Speaker 1>and just got to track the ball and make that play. Obviously,

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the again the receiver made made a tremendous play. Um.

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:42.920
<v Speaker 1>And and you know these are things in these games

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:46.159
<v Speaker 1>that that uh you know, Um, we'll just go back

0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 1>and look at the film tomorrow and uh, you know,

0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:52.320
<v Speaker 1>make that correction show him, um and and and show

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 1>him how to be better in that situation, um, so

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:58.599
<v Speaker 1>that it doesn't happen again. One to ninety three yard drive.

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.400
<v Speaker 1>The balance that you had is that how you want

0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:02.760
<v Speaker 1>to the offense to look to shoot. I think in

0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:04.520
<v Speaker 1>terms of that now Yeah, you'd love to have that

0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.600
<v Speaker 1>type of balance, you know anytime, um, you know, run

0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 1>and pass and and kind of keep the defense off

0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:12.479
<v Speaker 1>off balance a little bit and and get get the

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 1>quarterback on the move and pocket and it was great

0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:19.120
<v Speaker 1>to go down and score and obviously finish off that drive. Um.

0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:21.600
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, that's a that's definitely a sort of a

0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:23.440
<v Speaker 1>blueprint to to what you'd like to see during the

0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>regular season. Is there anything out of the first team

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:27.479
<v Speaker 1>offense you want to see them have more success with,

0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:30.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, going forward front? You know what you saw

0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:34.360
<v Speaker 1>to not really Um, you know, I think the last

0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:37.160
<v Speaker 1>two weeks, really, our our hurry up tempo offense was

0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 1>was very good. We were able to put pressure on

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the defense and our guys really, um, they practice fast

0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:44.400
<v Speaker 1>that way and then they're used to that and they're

0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.280
<v Speaker 1>comfortable with that, and it gets your quarterback in a

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 1>rhythm and it gets your offense in a rhythm. So

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 1>that was very beneficial something we'll obviously continue during the

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 1>regular season. But you know, we've got to just clean

0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.479
<v Speaker 1>up some things into protection, you know, it goes back

0:06:56.480 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to Howard's question there into protection and um, you know,

0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:03.000
<v Speaker 1>we'll do that and obviously. Now the focus for them

0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 1>is to get ready for Washington in two weeks time,

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:08.880
<v Speaker 1>with one today, just wanting to see him after doing

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:11.240
<v Speaker 1>his camp and after the day's game. You know, he's

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>he's done. He's done a great job, you know, coming

0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:16.320
<v Speaker 1>in there and and uh, really starting camp as our

0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:18.240
<v Speaker 1>third but really playing as our number two here in

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 1>these last few games. And um, he's done a nice

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Jo did a nice job tonight, even after the turnover,

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>to bounce back and go down really against their their

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.640
<v Speaker 1>starting defense and score was exciting for him and for

0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the offense. And um, he's done a nice job. He's

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>done a really nice job. And uh, um again it's

0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's one of those positions where you want

0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:40.440
<v Speaker 1>to see that position play well and he's done a

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:44.240
<v Speaker 1>nice job. Really, how much is his game playing for Washington?

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>How much is it valuating these punchings. Yeah, it's a

0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:49.120
<v Speaker 1>fine line, you know, because we want to make sure

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>our starters are getting a little bit of of some

0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Washington and and uh, you know, getting starting to think, uh,

0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Redskins a little bit. But at the

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.120
