1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,320 Speaker 1: Those are those are tough decisions. You know, those are 2 00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: hard conversations. There's certainly a human element that goes along 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: with really all the parties involved, and so those aren't easy. 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: I'd say Drusier remained the backup. He remained the backup, 5 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: and I have full confience and Drew. He's done everything 6 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: we've asked him. He's done a nice job. So if 7 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: he has to go in there, we have full confidence 8 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: and he'll be able to do that. I'm excited for 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: Tommy and his opportunity within the offense and continue to grow, 10 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: get better and and take advantage of those opportunities that'll 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: have And uh, you know, again, like I said, these 12 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: are tough conversations. This is this is you know, tough 13 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: to talk about these times of the year. But things 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: that we're excited about with Tommy and the offense will 15 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: continue to look out and improve. I really have nothing 16 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: else to add other than what Dave's talked about, kind 17 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: of the how, when, where, why? All those things kind 18 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: of came up from what he talked about earlier this week. 19 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: So our main focus is on Tampa and whether it's 20 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: the offense that and the defense that we're about to play. 21 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: Those are the things and those are the details that 22 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm you know, mostly thinking about or that on my 23 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: mind at this point in the week. So if anyone 24 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: has any questions about Tampa, I'd gladly take those. 25 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: And if I could just ask you if somebody who's 26 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 2: played the position before and probably been a part of 27 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: some of those difficult conversations as a player, how difficult 28 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: on Daniel is this and your opinion as a guy 29 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: that's been working closely. 30 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I do. I want to speak for Daniel on this. 31 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: I know you guys have talked to him, and I'm 32 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: sure he's expressed his feelings about it, but are you 33 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: know are my main focus is on Tampa. What what 34 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: do you expect to see from Tommy in terms of 35 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: his development from the last time we saw in the 36 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: regular season game to where he's at now. 37 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 3: How is he? 38 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he'll see some growth. I think he'll 39 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 1: see a lot of growth. He's certainly another year in 40 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: the system, another year in the offense. He's getting better 41 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: at just the little things, those details, talking about protections 42 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: as you know, uh, demonstrating at the line of scrimmage 43 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: with his hands, you know, setting the defense, getting guys 44 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: lined up, talking to those guys, communicating notches on the field, 45 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: but then off the field on the sideline of between series, 46 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: all that growth. This has really been picking up and 47 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: you can see it happened in the meeting rooms as 48 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: he's talking to guys this week, he's happening on the 49 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: field in the practice field, and that'll just continue to 50 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: get better. 51 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: Like, how do you allow the relationship between the Week 52 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: and Tommy now to kind of flourish and really starting 53 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: from square one and bringing up right? 54 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think, you know, they've been 55 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: teammates here this whole season, so it's not like the 56 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 1: first time they were talking to each other it was yesterday. 57 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: And I think they're good friends. I think they're good buddies. 58 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: So I think as they just continue to talk more 59 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: on the field, talk about now kind of certain routes, 60 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: and the time into those things where they're talking about 61 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: it or wrapping it out on the on a different field, 62 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: I think all those things will add up and we'll 63 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: continue to that up. And that factor is grating. 64 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 4: I mean the fact that Tommy really didn't throw, he 65 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 4: didn't work with the first team at all, and that 66 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 4: it would be different. You know, you'd have to get it, 67 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 4: you know, time on task with those guys. 68 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's that's the importance of practicing. So this 69 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: week is get on the same page with everybody and 70 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: talking about it. You know, we talk about it all 71 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: year about you know, ball placement and timing and rhythm 72 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: and all those things, and tying it, tying the pass 73 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: game together with the quarterback, receivers and really the whole 74 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: skill group. And then that's you know, been the emphasis 75 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: this week in practice. 76 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: You've had ten games of film that you could watch 77 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 3: on Tampa. Do you expect them to change things just 78 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 3: because you've changed quarterbacks. 79 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: There's certainly an element of kind of the unknown where 80 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, Todd has been coaching this league a long time. 81 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: I was with him in Philly when I was a player. 82 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's a heck of a football coach 83 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: and they have a great staff, so I know they'll 84 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: be sure. There'll be a couple of wrinkles we haven't 85 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: seen on tape yet. He always kind of has has 86 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: those in his back pocket. But you know, we got 87 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: to be able to watch the tape and study and 88 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: make sure they have them have some core things that 89 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: they'd like to do, and so we have to make 90 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: sure we'll doubt we're dial into those. 91 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: One of the core things the Ton's known for us 92 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: is seven. 93 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: People are Yeah. I mean with the stats, the stats 94 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: are there, with the pressures in the front, you expect. 95 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 2: The particularly with Tommy being there, maybe to more of 96 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: an emphasis on that as Yeah. 97 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know much higher of a pressure. 98 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: If he has a pretty high percentage of pressure, I mean, 99 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: if he's gonna bring more, you know, we just got 100 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: to be dial into it. And I think our guys 101 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: will be prepared. Our coaches are doing a heck of 102 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: a job. We just went through a you know, a 103 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: red zone and third down install that we feel really 104 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: good about, and so we'll go out today and practice 105 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: and rep it and then make any corrections we need to. 106 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what was your Yeah, all those discussions that 107 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: we had, you know, during the bye leading up to 108 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: the week, we certainly talked about him as a staff 109 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: and I'll just keep those in house with Daves. If 110 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: you have any questions, you can hit Dave on them. 111 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: Are there any conversations. 112 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 4: During the bye week about your role evolving, whether it's 113 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 4: getting back involved in play calling or doing something different 114 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 4: anywhere before. 115 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: My role is to stay the same, and I'm going 116 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: to continue to do the best I can to help 117 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: the offense. 118 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 4: Mike of Tyrone the handle of the disappointment of the 119 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 4: fumble and coming. 120 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: From Yeah, that's that's what I love about high Round. 121 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: He's you know, he's really hard himself. He wants, he 122 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: wants to do the right thing every time. And uh, 123 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: you know, obviously he was he was he was hurt 124 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: about it, and he took it personal, and you know, 125 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: I think that was for him. You'd like to see 126 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: that from a young player taking ownership of it. But 127 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 1: when it comes down to it wasn't just one play. 128 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: There's a bunch of players that we'd like to have 129 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: back within that game. And so I know it will 130 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: make him, make him better for it, use him. I mean, 131 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: you know, it's have counsel in the situations you put 132 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: him in. I don't see any change in that. 133 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 3: Did you? 134 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 4: But when you went back and looked at, you know, 135 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 4: the offense in the first half of the season, obviously 136 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 4: you're thirty second in points per game. What did you 137 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 4: come away thinking? 138 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 3: What did you see? 139 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there was a lot of positives that we 140 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: talked about over the bye. You know, ten plus play 141 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: drives or like top three in the league, amount of time, 142 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: like time of possession, doing really well with that. I 143 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: think having drives of standing drives just when we get 144 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: into the red zone, we were just falling short, turning 145 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: the ball over. Those are things that we got to improve. 146 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: And it's not just one position, it's everybody is a 147 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: part of that. 148 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 3: With the change at quarterback and the idea of you know, 149 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 3: now you have a quarterback who's got to get used 150 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 3: to the you know, the line, the receivers and everything. 151 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,679 Speaker 3: Does it also help you guys as a whole group 152 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 3: to kind of I don't want to say start from 153 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: square one, but maybe hit on details that over the 154 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: course of the first ten games that maybe because you're 155 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 3: just practicing for the next game, that maybe you find 156 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 3: certain things that maybe you didn't attack as well or 157 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 3: as consistently as you did. 158 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: I'd say that each quarterback's a little bit different. They 159 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: communicate in a little bit different ways, so it's getting 160 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: everyone on the same page. Sure, there's gonna be details 161 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: that we need to make sure we hit for certain 162 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: plays or certain players and those are things that we 163 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, we looked at and we dug down deep 164 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: during during the byweek to make sure we can get 165 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: those corrections and and show it to the players, you know, 166 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: in a kind of bite size increments so that they 167 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: can understand it and then go and improve on. 168 00:06:59,240 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 4: Thanks you are. 169 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: How do you feel about Canna being four it not 170 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: not for it? Well I haven't. I'll let Daves talk 171 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: about kind of the depth chart on those type of things. 172 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: But whatever, whatever Dave wants to go with, that's what 173 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: we do.
