1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Josh, I hope you're hanging in there. Um. You know, 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Cam talk last night just about how frustrated he was 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 1: because he's putting in so much time and just not 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: getting the results that he was hoping for. Um, what 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: do you see from him in terms of what he's 6 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 1: putting in and how much he's investing and and how 7 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: can you sort of keep him? I guess upbeat? Given 8 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: the situation. Cam's done. Um, He's done a tremendous job. 9 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: You know, he studies, He works extremely hard, as hard 10 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: as as any player that I've coached. And he, you know, 11 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 1: he's key, comes in prepared each day. He prepares hard 12 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,480 Speaker 1: for um, every practice, every session we have, and he's 13 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: ready to go each week at the game. And he 14 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: gives us everything he's got. And so to me, UM, 15 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, you can't you can't attach your person um, 16 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 1: you know, and all that stuff to to the result 17 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: of a game or you know, one certain season. And 18 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: Cam's done a lot for UM a long time and 19 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: he's given us everything he's got and there's nothing else 20 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: I could ask for as a coach, you know. I mean, 21 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: have there been mistakes made? Uh, yeah, that's across the board. 22 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: There's no question about it. Our our whole group we 23 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,199 Speaker 1: need better from and um, you know, and that's my job. 24 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: So we need to do a better job of of 25 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: figuring that out. But in the positions to be successful 26 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: coaching him properly and and obviously being able to make 27 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: more plays and score more points. But as far as 28 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: Cam Newton is concerned, UM, he's obviously earned the respect 29 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: of this entire building, organization, every coaching player in here. UM, 30 00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:00,559 Speaker 1: the way we feel about him won't change. Next question, 31 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: Mark jenis Okay, Obviously this has been a different year 32 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: for everyone. It's going for you Just how challenge of 33 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: a year you know, has has it been considering you know, 34 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 1: everything that's gone on and obviously you know the results 35 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: this year, it's been challenging for everybody. UM, you know, 36 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: we're no different than any other team. UM, you know, 37 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: we've all dealt with the circumstances that the country's dealing with, 38 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: that the world's dealing with. I think the NFL has 39 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: done a great job of doing that. I think organization 40 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: has done a great job. Our players and coaches have 41 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: really done, um, a really good job of compartmentalizing that 42 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: and handling that. UM, the season itself. You know, this 43 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: is we we we we we do this to to 44 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: compete and win, and uh, that's certainly what I do 45 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: it for. And the relationships we build along the way 46 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: are wonderful. Um, but you know, we're we're all in 47 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: this to do one thing, and that's to succeed and 48 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: win and and try to win championships. And so um, 49 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: we obviously haven't done that this year. And uh, you know, 50 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: so we we we have one more week. We have 51 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: six more days here to pour in a bunch of 52 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 1: work and and try to finish with our best effort 53 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: on Sunday against the Jets and then figure out what 54 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 1: we can do to make it better. And so one 55 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: more just and just because we won't talk to you 56 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: again this season, do you do you still have aspirations 57 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: to to become a head coach again? Absolutely definitely want 58 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: to do that. Um. You know, I'd love to have 59 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: an opportunity if it presents itself. Thank you, Josh yep 60 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: A right, next question, Andrew counting him big jobs. I'm 61 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: wondering for you, as a play caller and obviously the 62 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: guy running the offense, what are the challenges in your 63 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: mind that have chiefly led to the struggle that these 64 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: just just the toughest part this year that have you 65 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: led out of the locker of result. Well, good offense 66 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: is the product of you know, many things being done right, 67 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: you know, and UM start planning, UM, preparation, practice, fundamentals, techniques, UM. 68 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: And we we have to have eleven guys on every 69 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: play do those things right, UM on offense in order 70 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: to have success. And that's just it's the way it's 71 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: always been. It's the way it's always going to be. 72 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 1: And it's a great challenge to build your group each 73 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: year from you know, from wherever it starts to wherever 74 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: you finish, and and try to improve in those areas 75 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: and be able to execute play after play after play 76 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: against good teams, good coaches, good players on the other 77 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: side of the ball. UM. You know, in order to 78 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: together eight ten plays in a row that result in 79 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: a touchdown drive or a scoring drive, you know, it 80 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: takes a lot of really good things to happen. A 81 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: lot of people have to be able to do their 82 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: job as well. And we'ves it's really not one reason. 83 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: It's a lot of different things. You know, here and there, 84 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: we've had stretches where we've played well and moved the 85 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: ball fine, and we've had stretches where we've certainly struggled. 86 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: And obviously that's you know what. The last few weeks, 87 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: I've been Eric blue and last followed by right Josh. 88 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: I'm sure with Sunday's game plan is because the game 89 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: has no significance as far as the standings going, does 90 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: that give you a little more freedom as far as 91 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: maybe planning well outside of the box that you normally 92 00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: would for a game. I'm not sure what you wining 93 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: me give me a little bit more specific on that. 94 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what you're actually maybe kind of doing 95 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: some things that might not have worked in practices that 96 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 1: you didn't like to do, or running sets that the 97 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: guys struggled with, just trying stuff to see, well, maybe 98 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: this works, maybe we see how this looks. I'm filmed 99 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: now so we can use it for next year. I 100 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: don't think games are really a good opportunity to do that. 101 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: I mean, if you try that something like that in 102 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: a preseason game or something like that, that's fine. I 103 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,119 Speaker 1: think usually if you do it well in the practice field, 104 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: you have a chance to execute it in the game properly. 105 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: If you don't on the practice field. It's been my 106 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: experience that those things are tough to to do well 107 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: against good competition on Sundays in the National Football League. 108 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: So we'll always try to, you know, create the game 109 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: plan with our players in mind, with what they we 110 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: feel like they can do well and they can have 111 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: success doing against the opponent, the opponent's scheme and the 112 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: opponent's players, and so, uh in the box, out of 113 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: the box, whatever, you know, whatever you want to call it. Um, 114 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: we're going to try to figure out a way to win. 115 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: And you know, whether that's you know, straightforward, you know, basics, 116 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: or something a little bit you know, different than that, 117 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: we'll try to figure that out. But normally, practice execution 118 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: becomes game reality, and lack of practice practice execution does 119 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: not lend itself to doing something very well in the games. 120 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: But it's been for all intents and because it's a 121 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, a preseason game for the twenty twenty one season. No, 122 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: absolutely not. No, I mean there's a lot of guys 123 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: that we've worked our ass off all year long. We're 124 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: not going to We're not going to relegate a regular 125 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: season game in the National Football League against it the 126 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: fision opponent to you know, being something like that, that's 127 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: that that would be disrespectful to everybody that's worked butt 128 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: off all year long to to compete, and that's that's 129 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: not what we're gonna do. Thanks, yep, Thanks buddy. Last question, 130 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: Chris Ryan, Hey, Josh. Everybody has talked about the effort 131 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: that Cam has put in throughout the course of the 132 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: year across the board. A teammates have been emphatic in 133 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: their praise, as as the coaching staff. Interview. Why specifically 134 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: has his preparation not correlated into you know, the type 135 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: of success on the field? Interview? Well, there's a lot 136 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of there's a lot of you know, 137 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot of reasons why you have success in 138 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: the passing game, and there's a lot of reasons why 139 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: you don't. You don't, and you know, everyone points to 140 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: the quarterback, and that's fair. He's handled that burden, that 141 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: responsibility and that criticism with tremendous grace and class all 142 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: year long. Um as he should and as I would expect, 143 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: and that's what leaders do. And but certainly there's many 144 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: reasons why we haven't had success in the passing game. 145 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: It's certainly not just a quarterback. And again, you know, 146 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: put it back on me. It's my responsibility to figure 147 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: out how to get this group to be successful in 148 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: the past game, the run game, whatever the situation may be. 149 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: But you know, in order to pass the ball, well, 150 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: you gotta pass block, you got to pick up the blitz, 151 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: you gotta read the coverage properly. You got to run 152 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: the right routes. You got to get open at the 153 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: top of the route. You got to throw the ball apply, 154 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: you got to catch the ball cleanly against type coverage. 155 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: There's a lot of little things that have to happen 156 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: that you have to do well in order to be 157 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: successful in producing the passing game. And I think it 158 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: would be shortsighted to just pump pinpoint, you know, one guy, 159 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: and say that's that's just his responsibility, because that's not true. 160 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: Given everything that has taken place this year, is this 161 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: you're the most kind of rise it frustrating season that 162 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: you've had in trying to figure out how to make 163 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: this work in this type of environment. I think you 164 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: just take each week, you know, as its own. And 165 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: I don't think coaching is a is a profession where 166 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: you can allow yourself to you know, let disappointment lead 167 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: to you know, frustration, uh, you know, and then that 168 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: leads to something else.
