1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: I feel like through three games, we haven't we haven't

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: done the things we've felt like we would be able

3
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: to do in certain games, whether that be setting guys

4
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,960
Speaker 1: up for certain things, finishing plays, executing plays. You know,

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: we just we haven't achieved the standard we expect for ourselves,

6
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: and so that's something we'll continue to chase and that's

7
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: that's an ongoing process forever and always. I think if

8
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: you have a little bit of success early in those

9
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: games where maybe we stalled out in certain situations, it

10
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: changes the feeling, It changes the rest of the game

11
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: as you go. But you know, we're gonna keep keep plugging,

12
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: keep chipping away at it and until we get the

13
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 1: same turnin.

14
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

15
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 1: No, I don't get that that sense just talking to him,

16
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,319
Speaker 1: the way he works, observing him, haven't been together now

17
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 1: for a couple of months and things like that. Uh,

18
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like he's a guy that just

19
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: continues to put his head down, continues to work. And

20
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: I think a couple of those plays that maybe didn't

21
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: come up with, he'll get an opportunity to come up

22
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: with here pretty quickly and that'll kind of turn the

23
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: tide for a lot of that and maybe change the.

24
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: Narrative less than down so far this year.

25
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: Improve You know, there's a lot of things when you

26
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: look through it, whether it be protection, batted balls here

27
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: and there, catching here and there, making decisions here and there.

28
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: So you know, I think as we look into it,

29
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: everybody's had their hand in this. So as a unit,

30
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: there's not one certain person group that has kind of

31
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: let us down where you'd think you could make this

32
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: certain change right here. I think it's just everybody kind

33
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,639
Speaker 1: of in some way, shape or form, doing the best

34
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: at their job at that given time, whatever that may be. So,

35
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: you know, I think especially early on in season three

36
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: games in small sample size, you know quickly you have

37
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: one successful game in there and it flips the numbers.

38
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 2: So I understand the rankings and.

39
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: All that, but we go in, we watch every play individually,

40
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: we try to diagnose what was the issue with that play,

41
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: what happened, why was this not successful or not efficient,

42
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: and go through the entire game with that to provide

43
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: context for each situation. And so it's not something we

44
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: feel like there's one glaring issue or this change will

45
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: fix all of that. It's just something everybody just continue

46
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: to put their head down do their job at the

47
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: best best of their ability, and.

48
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: We'll come out on the other side of this. You

49
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: had some key.

50
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: Drop passes in the first couple of weeks that probably

51
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: and better positions down the field.

52
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: Do you just look at that as some of those

53
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: small mistakes.

54
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: That kind of add up to problem.

55
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: I think so.

56
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: And I think that's part of you know, obviously, not

57
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: sustaining a drive, whether it be a battered ball, a sack,

58
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: inefficient run, whatever that may be. You know that that

59
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: keeps you out of getting that rhythm within a drive,

60
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 1: getting more plays here and there. It's where you really

61
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: get flowing when you're in first down, second doun, first down,

62
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: second down. That's a lot better than going first down,

63
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: second down, third and one, first down, second down, third

64
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: and two. You know, just that that routine of a drive,

65
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: or that momentum of a drive. We haven't been able

66
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: to really sustain that at this point in time. But again,

67
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: we don't feel like there's any one major issue that

68
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: it's that right there. It's just everybody doing their job

69
00:02:51,800 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: a little bit better. Early run, yeah, I think so.

70
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: I mean we established a physical tone I think to

71
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: start that game with some of the runs we hit,

72
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: came back to the second half, had a variety of runs,

73
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: kind of got that drive going and then you know,

74
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of the game kind of gets away

75
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: from you. You play the game a little bit differently, but

76
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: we were encouraged with what we saw in the run game.

77
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing with this league is, you know,

78
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: it's a play to play basis.

79
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 2: So because we had success at.

80
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: Some point in time in that game run on the ball,

81
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: that doesn't carry over to this week. You play a

82
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 1: different team, different scheme, different personnel, and you got to

83
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: do what you need to do to execute against that

84
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: look each play. I think it's been hit or miss

85
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: here and there. There's been some things we've done well.

86
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: There's been some things we need to get better at.

87
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: You know, we've played some pretty good fronts. I feel

88
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: like as we've gone through there's always going to be

89
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: in this league. There's always somebody on every single defensive

90
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: line that's a problem one, maybe two as you get

91
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: into it.

92
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 2: But it's been up and down.

93
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: I think as an entire unit, we need more consistency

94
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: across the board. And I think everybody in that room

95
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: would agree, coaching staff, we'd all agree with that as well.

96
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: We need to do our jobs better than we've done

97
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: to get ourselves out to the other side of the.

98
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 2: Full game.

99
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: You have to find that I guess, uh yeah, I

100
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: mean it kind of just it's an ebb and flow

101
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: with within a drive within a game as things are working,

102
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: you know, we certainly we spend Monday to Saturday coming

103
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 1: up with a plan of attack. We kind of try

104
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: to execute that plan in the first quarter of games,

105
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: and then you kind of play off the adjustments in

106
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: the second quarter, you play off the halftime first half

107
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: adjustments in the third quarter, and the fourth fourth quarter

108
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: just kind of go win whatever that looks like.

109
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 2: It may be.

110
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: You're in four minute mode, two minute mode, desperation mode,

111
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,559
Speaker 1: whatever that is. So kind of the game is always

112
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: kind of changing, but you're trying to certainly establish that

113
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: flow and find that flow within it.

114
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: Yes, such a thing as trying.

115
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: Probably, yeah, I don't know. I couldn't tell you. If

116
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 1: guys are trying too hard, not trying hard enough, then

117
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: that's something everybody themselves would tell you. But I think

118
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: there's there's a certain time where things aren't going your way,

119
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: and maybe it build is.

120
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,679
Speaker 2: A frustration do you get out of character?

121
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: Do you execute the way you know how to execute

122
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: the way we've trained them to next cute like I

123
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: think that comes out, But I think that's a case

124
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: by case, more personal situation.

125
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 2: We do. Absolutely, Yes, Yeah, I believe so.

126
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: In Tank, just like anybody, we're all gonna learn from

127
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: every single experience we go through. So you know, you

128
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: want each of your players to learn from every play

129
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: that happens. You love it when they learn from plays

130
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: that happen to other people and continue to grow. And

131
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: that's something we feel like we've seen out of Tank

132
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: as we've gone on. But all our guys just learn

133
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 1: get better every single rep as we go into.

134
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: This thing, a little bit rushed, sometimes second or second earlier.

135
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: Than he really wants to Chris again, I don't know.

136
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: Maybe it's a case by case thing. I think in

137
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of that game the other day, we're

138
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: in a drop back desperation mode and things change a

139
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: little bit, and I think there were probably time he

140
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: would tell you, maybe I could have hung in there

141
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: another half second on a read, whatever that may be.

142
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: But in terms of the way we expect things to

143
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: operate and things like that, outside of that fourth quarter

144
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: where the game, the complexion of the game is different.

145
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: I don't know that i'd sense that.

146
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 2: How would perform two three games. His numbers suggest that

147
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 2: it's okay.

148
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 1: I think it's been similar to the rest of the unit.

149
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 1: I think just more consistency across the board. I think

150
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: that that's all of us. That's myself, that's the offensive staff,

151
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: that's every position group you could think of, just being

152
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: more consistent every single down doing doing your individual job

153
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: at the highest possible level. Again, again, that goes to

154
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: every person in our offensive room. To something you guys

155
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: have been trying to figure out, dating all the way

156
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: back to last year. How is it maybe script plays

157
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: differently to start the game.

158
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 2: Is it getting guy or is it guys just take

159
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: a little while to kind of get into the flow

160
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 2: of the game.

161
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: Is it?

162
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: Have you guys figured out why? Not? Necessarily?

163
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we felt like we had an opportunity to

164
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: the day in the game, we had created a good matchup,

165
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to make a play, didn't make a play.

166
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: So I think again, it's it's all case by case.

167
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: It's easy to.

168
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: Say one certain thing has been an issue, but when

169
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: we watch it and we put context every play and

170
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: why things happen, why things don't happen. I think that's

171
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: more of what you're trying to diagnose as a coaching staff,

172
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: and then how do we fix that big picture. But

173
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: I don't know that it's necessarily Like I think we

174
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: have the ability to start fast. The other day, we

175
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: didn't make a play and then it comes down to

176
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: you missfield. But then now the whole dynamic of the

177
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: game certainly changes after that first drive. If you maybe

178
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: if you catch the ball in score, we call something

179
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: different early on and get somebody an opportunity early on.

180
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: I mean that's something we're always trying to search for

181
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: as a as an entire unit. I know you're more

182
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: interested in for you, but league wide offenses down.

183
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: And all the teams would offense supposedly had.

184
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: Their moment.

185
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 2: Against Miami's. You only want to have it. But uh,

186
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 2: theories why, I don't know.

187
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: I don't no, I've really just kind of been focused

188
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: on us. Honestly, I've maybe kind of game here or

189
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: there as have gone on, but I really have it.

190
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 2: Couldn't tell you've paid attention. I think.

191
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: I think again, it's easy to make general statements about everything.

192
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: But I think watching everything play by play, understanding why

193
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: things are happening, why they're not happening, what somebody's plan

194
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: of attack.

195
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 2: That's the other thing. It's hard to say if you do.

196
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: Watch another offense, like as we watch offenses play against

197
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: our opponents that we're watching, it's hard to say what

198
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: they're being asked to do. And if you don't know

199
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: what they're being asked to do, it's hard to say,

200
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: this is why they're struggling, that's why someone's so struggling,

201
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: or that's what's making a play difficult. So we try

202
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: to focus in on us putting our players in the

203
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: best possible position to attack the opponent we're playing that week,

204
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: or that give and play based on the situation we're

205
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: in there.

206
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 2: They're physical.

207
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: They do a really good job of being a physical unit.

208
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: They got a big physical interior front seven. I think

209
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: on the outside they're doing a good job of being

210
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: physical with receivers. You know, they brought in a couple

211
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: of free agents that have really added to their team

212
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: personnel wise. We had the opportunity to practice with them

213
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: last year, so we have a feel for some of

214
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: the people. Personnel wise, but now they're obviously playing in

215
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,599
Speaker 1: a different scheme. You know, adding Jesse Bates to the

216
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: back end has been a big thing for them. He's

217
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: got i think three picks already through three games. You know,

218
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: he changes just the complexion of the back end based

219
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: on how rangy he is as a safety, how instinctive

220
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: he is, and they're letting him make plays. But then

221
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: bringing in you know, Bud depre Kalays Campbell, having Grady Jarrett,

222
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: you know, that's a physical unit that makes the game

223
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: hard and kind of want to turn it into a fistfight.

224
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: And then on the outside there have been aggressive and

225
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: physical and coverage that you know, the way they played

226
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: Detroit making it hard to get off into speed and

227
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: space a little bit so
