Okay. Now, first segment today, I did 98 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 4: want to talk about the injuries BB coming back this week. Brow, No, 99 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 4: that's not what I want to talk about. I don't worry, 100 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 4: but I actually want to talk about linebacker. I want 101 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 4: to talk about linebackeruse the owner and general manager brought 102 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 4: up linebacker this morning. I thought it was very interesting 103 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 4: the way that he called them out. This is what 104 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 4: he said. He says, we need to basically have better 105 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 4: play from the linebackers, maintaining the integrity of our gaps 106 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 4: which the linebackers have to fill. The linebackers have to slide. 107 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 4: So they did a good job against us talking about Denver, 108 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 4: and we did a poor job. That being said, how 109 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 4: significant do you think it is that Jerry spoke specifically 110 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 4: about a position, which he doesn't tend to do a lot. 111 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 4: He doesn't tend to call out specific players or positions, 112 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 4: even necessarily, especially when he's giving a critique. How significant 113 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 4: do you think that is? 114 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 5: Man, don't you know, I don't want to come on 115 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 5: his radio station and all this these paid for all 116 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 5: these microphones and things like that, and saying he's a 117 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 5: couple of weeks later on that, but boy, missus. 118 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 4: Jones, a couple of weeks later, we've been talking out 119 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 4: on the break for a minute. So if you want 120 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 4: to look at it indirectly, you. 121 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 2: Don't listen to us whatever. 122 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, don't people that he pays talking about it. 123 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 4: So it's it's been addressed. Yeah, didn't address it till today. 124 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 5: But gap integrity, y'all, that's that's the name of the game. 125 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 5: When you run defense, look decent, your gap integrity was, 126 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 5: you know it was, it was solid. When your run 127 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 5: defense is horrific, nine times out of ten, it's somebody 128 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,119 Speaker 5: playing hero ball and nine team ball, and the gap 129 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 5: integrity is not always there. Well, we've saw plenty times. 130 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 5: Me and Brian broke broke down a little bit of 131 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 5: film on it. I showed twice. It happened like seven is. 132 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 5: Sometimes your end doesn't stay outside, you know. And what 133 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 5: happens is if your in don't stay outside, then running 134 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 5: back goes outside. If you're a linebacker, you don't feel 135 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 5: your b gap, nine times out of ten, somebody gonna 136 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 5: go right where you left off at Most of these 137 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,679 Speaker 5: offensive run systems are based on the running backs eyes, 138 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 5: what they see in them finding grass. So not only 139 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 5: if you didn't hit your gap, but if you far 140 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 5: missed your gap. 141 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: I think it's something on film. 142 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 5: Also, I can't prove this because I ain't Sean Payne 143 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 5: number Brian do, and I'll let you know when ever 144 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 5: he texts us back. I think that they're seeing on 145 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 5: film that our edges get caught inside too much, and 146 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 5: that makes the linebackers get caught inside too much. So 147 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 5: what happened is these teams will confidently crack your linebacker 148 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 5: with a wide receiver and they'll just put your tight 149 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 5: end one on one with your edge guy and just 150 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 5: pin everything to the inside. And that happens a whole bunch. 151 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 5: I wonder if that's something that these past few coaches 152 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 5: have saw from you. 153 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 2: But Jerry ain't wrong. 154 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 5: Jerry and his people that's feeding him and the lynx 155 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 5: and information, he's absolutely right. 156 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this question real quick on that 157 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 4: before you go, Brian. When you talk about the defensive 158 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 4: ends getting caught inside, and I brought this up yesterday, 159 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 4: and I can't quite figure out which I think it is. 160 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 4: It's happening a lot, as you said, You see it 161 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 4: on film a ton, particularly with Sam Well. He crashes 162 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 4: down hard and takes that inside gap. It makes me 163 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 4: wonder is he being coached and is it his responsibility 164 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 4: to take that inside gap, in which case, really it's 165 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 4: not him that's the problem. The problem is the linebacker 166 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 4: again is not scraping and getting to that outside gap 167 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 4: where that is his responsibility. Which do you think it is. 168 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 8: It's called the run blitz and what it is is Sam. 169 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 8: And we've talked about this before. If we remember when 170 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 8: Tank Lawrence, remember how instinctual Tank would be Abu to 171 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 8: be third and three and you're playing the Seahawks and 172 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 8: all of a sudden he's reading formation and he sees 173 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 8: wing to his side and he's thinking like, Okay, they're 174 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 8: coming this way. I'm gonna go hard inside charge and 175 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 8: see if I can make a play. I think Sam 176 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 8: is doing it because Sam is told that, Hey, we're 177 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 8: going to run blitz this this this particular play and 178 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 8: when you go down and like Vox was talking about it, 179 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 8: and I thought, very well, the where the fills come in, 180 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 8: where it's a A gap, it's an A gap charge, 181 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 8: it's a B gap fill, it's a C gap fill. 182 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 8: And there's been times where we've seen and again watch 183 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 8: and I broke it down this morning where you do 184 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 8: see herd inside charge and then you don't see Murray 185 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 8: get over the top or you don't see James get 186 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 8: over the top. So the design is your The whole 187 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 8: idea is to replace all the gaps. So if you 188 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 8: have a guy playing sea gap going to a gap. 189 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 8: Now you've got to replace the B gap and the 190 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 8: sea gap all in the defense to make it make 191 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 8: it a solid front. Dallas hasn't been able to get that. 192 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 8: You know, they've had unfortunately, they've had plays where all 193 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 8: of a sudden, a guys, say, like an outstanding run 194 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 8: defender like Kenny Clark is on the ground. 195 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 4: He's on the ground. 196 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 8: Now guard's up on the linebacker, so the linebacker can't. 197 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 4: Get over to make a fill. So now you have an. 198 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 8: Inside charge, no fill, and then the other fill is 199 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 8: too wide, having to take two gaps. We saw that 200 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 8: with the situation with with Elam. You know, Elom is 201 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 8: in the in the play, but he's too wide to 202 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 8: make the play. The ball goes up inside of him. 203 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 8: So it's it's to answer your question, it's Sam being 204 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 8: told to play, but they're getting hurt when it comes 205 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 8: to the execution of actually where everybody needs to fit 206 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 8: to make the run be defended. 207 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 5: Also to his ways, you can actually tell the very 208 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 5: first player of the game, Marsha and kneeling when you 209 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 5: saw him, he didn't immediately go inside like he was 210 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 5: outside a little bit and tight end took him inside, 211 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 5: like like that's that's one of us to tell. Yeah, 212 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 5: And then there's another way to tell, you know, coaches 213 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 5: will tell you to cheat a little bit, like if 214 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 5: it's your job to get the B gap, then you 215 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 5: can kind of pre snap, just cheat to be gap, 216 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 5: to just make it easy for you to get there. 217 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 5: It happened to Dante Foule. It ain't men called him out, 218 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 5: It just kind of happened a little bit. Dante Foulers 219 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 5: started off real wide. I'm like, man, why would you 220 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 5: start so wide if it's your job to be in 221 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 5: be gap. Turn Out it was in his job to 222 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 5: be in begap. I think he felt something. He felt 223 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 5: the run go away, so he crashed real, real hard, 224 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 5: and the running back went right off of him, and 225 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 5: it was a one on one with the Elam and 226 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 5: Elam wasn't expecting to be the only one on the 227 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 5: island with the running back, and bad things happen after that. 228 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 7: So your question about, you know, is this unusual or 229 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 7: this is unusual for Jerry to single out a specific 230 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 7: group position group. I did find it interesting one. I'm 231 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 7: okay with him doing that. That's totally fine. We've been 232 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,359 Speaker 7: talking about the linebacker position. I like the accountability. 233 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 4: I like that. 234 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 7: Okay, they're saying what we're saying, you know, not that 235 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 7: they're not, but it's always better to hear it that 236 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 7: they are also kind of on the same page. But 237 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 7: I did find it interesting because after the game, Brian 238 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 7: Schottenheimer one of the things that he emphasized was the 239 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 7: culture of the team, and he's like, Okay, when you 240 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 7: have adversity, that's good. It's good. It's what you do 241 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 7: with it. Though it's either gonna make your team or 242 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 7: break it. It's how you respond to it. And he 243 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 7: said something about the culture that he's building on the 244 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 7: team is that right now there wouldn't be anyone that 245 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 7: starts finger pointing and saying this person did that or 246 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 7: that person did that. And that's something that he was 247 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 7: very proud of voicing and being that's when kind of 248 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 7: everything can start to go downhill when you start singling 249 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 7: out people. And the fact that then Jerry makes that 250 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 7: calm man, I just thought it was kind of, you know, 251 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 7: it's a contrast there. So I did find the kind 252 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 7: of interested in that sense. 253 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 8: I think when you've listened to and this is one 254 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 8: of the advantages that I do have working with one 255 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 8: O five to three is that we have the opportunity 256 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 8: to talk to Jerry Jones and to Brian Schottenheimer and 257 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 8: to Stephen Jones. I think this week from all three 258 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 8: of those gentlemen has been a different tone. There has 259 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 8: been a different tone. It's not that, well, hey, we're okay, 260 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 8: we just got to execute better and we've got to 261 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 8: No this week. This week was a I think it 262 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 8: was a real slap in the face, pardon the expression 263 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 8: of reality of what this football team probably is. And 264 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 8: there the tone of Jerry Jones now saying linebacker play has. 265 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 4: To be better. 266 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 8: And you know he could have he could very easily 267 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 8: said our defensive line play has to be better, our 268 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 8: secondary has to be better. But when you look at 269 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 8: overall some of the things that they've struggled with in 270 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 8: the running game, it has in the linebackers. I think 271 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 8: he gave you a very honest answer. But I think 272 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 8: overall the tone of your top, your coach, and your 273 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 8: executives has really changed. You know that that game was 274 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 8: very eye opening and Stephen Jones is right, three four 275 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 8: and one is not going to get you into the playoffs. 276 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 8: I mean that is just not and you know, usually 277 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 8: it's like, oh, we just need to play better. You know, 278 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 8: well we're about no and you know, put our heads 279 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 8: in the sand kind of thing. 280 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 2: I didn't. 281 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 8: I didn't detect that in the last couple of days 282 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,239 Speaker 8: when listening to them talk. I since there is a 283 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 8: sense of it is not good enough and we damn 284 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 8: need to do something about it right now. 285 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's interesting, Brian, even though it's starting on Sunday. 286 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 4: I think we heard a different tone from coach Shoddy 287 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 4: after the game. It didn't feel like what you typically 288 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 4: hear from coaches that you know. 289 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 8: Yeah, it was there was we'll get on the practice 290 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 8: field and well. 291 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 4: Yeah we got for correct our mistake. It will be better. 292 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 2: You know. 293 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 4: It wasn't that. It was, hey, this ain't good enough. 294 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 4: We got to fix it, and there will be changes. 295 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 4: And my question becomes like, I know he said, you 296 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 4: know there will be changes and kind of alluded to 297 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 4: after the bye, but my question is like, what kind 298 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 4: of changes could even be made that really at this 299 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 4: point would give you faith that the defense can be better. 300 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 4: I mean, I know you're gonna get some players back, 301 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 4: but as I said yesterday, I don't trust you today. Okay, good, 302 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 4: We're gonna take a break. We're gonna come back and more. 303 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 7: Than fine taking it to break right now, we will 304 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 7: do that. 305 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 4: Well, we'll be back.

I hate her 375 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 4: to know there's no man out there that can take 376 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 4: care of you better.

Hey, let's let's let's jump into the 381 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 4: brain of Brian brought actually segments brought to you by blockchain. 382 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: I was just. 383 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 4: You or not. You forgot all about it too, all right, 384 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 4: going out to braind Brian brought what you got, bron. 385 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 8: If you feel like that, Stephen Jones regrets saying that 386 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 8: the defense was fixed when they made the trade for 387 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 8: Micah the run defense was fixed. 388 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 5: Man, they all regretting that stuff. Of course, he said 389 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 5: it just like that. Boy, I bet they watched Packers games. 390 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 5: They just got to shake their head and just imagine 391 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 5: and play a good old game. 392 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,239 Speaker 8: Or what if you get it wrong, then where did 393 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 8: they Where did they get it wrong? 394 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 2: Where did they get it wrong? 395 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 5: I think they got it wrong thinking that Kenny Clark 396 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 5: was like the one piece that was gonna, you know, 397 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 5: fix it like in that kind of way. And Brian, 398 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 5: what we've learned is that this defense is so bad 399 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,719 Speaker 5: as a whole. Even if your run defense is solid, 400 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 5: then team will still find a way to throw the 401 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 5: ball against you. You know, if you do deal with the 402 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 5: with the pass, then then we'll just running around and 403 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 5: we'll just do it like that. Brian, I think this 404 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 5: uh now where they still have a little hope. Stephen 405 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 5: maybe spoke a little early shouts out of brother Steve, 406 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,719 Speaker 5: me and Himku. I think you know where they may 407 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 5: have spoke a little too soon. The run defense may 408 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 5: not be better this year, you crack, because the run defense. 409 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 5: For me, this is a true blue. The run defense 410 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 5: may not be good this year, but after they trade 411 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 5: or they draft some kids or whatever come up here, 412 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 5: then they'll be like, well, well I never told y'all 413 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,239 Speaker 5: that the run is gonna be good this year, but 414 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 5: the run's good next year with Kendy Clark and draft 415 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 5: picks or Kenny Clark and some miscellaneous can't do we 416 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 5: can go trade for the coming of the run defense. 417 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 8: How about you amber this Stephen Jones, you think he 418 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 8: regrets saying that he felt that the run defense was 419 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 8: fixed when they made that trade. 420 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 7: It didn't prove for a little bit. We saw a 421 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 7: little bit of improvement there. But I think I think 422 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 7: that regardless of the trade and I'm gonna go further 423 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 7: beyond just the run defense. I think the defense would 424 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 7: be exactly what it is right now. Maybe not exactly 425 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,959 Speaker 7: the same obviously if you have a pass rusher, but 426 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 7: at the same time, you I truly feel you would 427 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 7: be getting similar results as to what you are having 428 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 7: right now. And I hate criticizing coaches and certain players 429 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 7: because you develop a certain type of relationship, so it 430 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 7: makes it difficult for you to come on here, get 431 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 7: on the mic and then start talking about their job 432 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 7: and how bad they're doing and this and that. So 433 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 7: I hate that. But at the same time, I think 434 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 7: it goes beyond the player's ability. We keep talking. Yes, 435 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 7: it is a combination there, but it comes back to 436 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 7: coaching and what is currently happening with the defensive coordinator. 437 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 7: And I don't want to say, oh, pack your bags 438 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 7: and leave. 439 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 2: They don't know me. 440 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 5: I'll say it, man, if you if you don't figure 441 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 5: something out, it's happening fast. 442 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 7: It's just it's just unfortunate that it's going to this 443 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 7: point of the season so far along to where you 444 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:54,719 Speaker 7: haven't actually seen true improvement or some sense of hope. 445 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 7: We saw it. 446 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 4: What was it? 447 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 7: Who did we play the Was it the Panthers two 448 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 7: weeks ago? No, watch Washington. We saw there and there 449 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 7: was a little bit of hope that you started feeling, 450 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 7: but you knew you had to see it happen back, 451 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 7: you know, back to back weeks and have some kind 452 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 7: of consistency there. But not enough has happened to where 453 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 7: you think, yeah, that trade made any difference. 454 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 2: Derek, how much better does this defense have to be? 455 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 5: And how fast before we start to feel better about 456 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 5: about flues? 457 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 8: Two more stops a game, two more stops again, two 458 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 8: more stops again? 459 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 5: Like it is that enough to make you go, all right, Louis, 460 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 5: next year we're gonna run it back. 461 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 4: I'm just this, you know. 462 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 8: To me, That's why I think I'm still really gung 463 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 8: ho about making a trade, because I'm interested in finding 464 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 8: a way give this offense two more possessions a game. 465 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: So give them two more possessions. 466 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 8: A game and see what happens. And I think that 467 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 8: I think you'll be out of harm's way a lot more. 468 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 8: You know now, now teams are chasing, but teams have 469 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 8: thrown the ball well against you too, But I would 470 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 8: rather them try and you know, maybe you can. We've 471 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 8: seen them get pressure. You just haven't seen him get 472 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 8: the sacks. But I'm thinking two more stops a game 473 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 8: handing the ball back to your offense. It worked in 474 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 8: the Commander's game. They got plenty of stops in the 475 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 8: Commander's game. And what Dallas do. They took advantage of 476 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 8: the offense, took advantage of that, put up a lot 477 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 8: of points. That's all I'm asking, Man, if you give 478 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 8: me two more good stops a game, I could be 479 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 8: okay with what this team's doing. 480 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I honestly, I look at I'm a little bit 481 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 4: disheartened by what I've seen from the defense from the 482 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 4: standpoint that they're giving up chunk plays in the run 483 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 4: game and the pass game and against poor competition. That's 484 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 4: the part that really bothers me. And it's it's really honestly, 485 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 4: there's only been one team that didn't gash them like that, 486 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 4: and they had some moments too, and that was Washington. 487 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 4: And so you basically the only team that hasn't gassed 488 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 4: you to that level had no players. Yeah, they were 489 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 4: down their top three wide receivers and and so I I, yes, 490 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 4: I look at it, and I'm like, I've gotten to 491 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,199 Speaker 4: point now, I'm not sure that you go out and 492 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 4: get me that stud player that we've been talking so 493 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 4: much about on this show. Sure, I don't know that 494 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 4: it's going to change a ton because I would say right. 495 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 8: Now, change going back to the years the next year, yes, yes, 496 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 8: And by the way, if you get the right back 497 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 8: to your original question, I think Kenny Clark may be 498 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 8: more valuable. 499 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 4: To you if you get more players in this defense. 500 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 4: I just think right now, like there are so many problems, 501 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 4: and a lot of the problems I've been saying forever, 502 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 4: I still believe it reside with the linebacker position, and 503 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 4: because the linebackers are not being in that will expose 504 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 4: so much about your defense because they have responsibilities in 505 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 4: a run game and the past game and them being 506 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 4: out of position can affect both in some very profound ways. 507 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 4: We've seen plays down field. We've seen plays downfield this 508 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 4: year where linebacker was out of position and play ends 509 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 4: up behind them and it's yeah, touchdown. So I think 510 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 4: right now the biggest challenge just the linebackers. But I 511 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 4: think there's so many issues right now going on, I'm 512 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 4: not sure that one player solves it. And so for me, 513 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 4: that's where you do have to say, Okay, coaches, y'all 514 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 4: got to figure out a plan with this group of players, 515 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 4: because all the players can't be bad. You got to 516 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 4: figure out a plan now to use the skills of 517 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 4: the players that you have in order to make this 518 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 4: defense decent and workable. 519 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 5: I think even if Michael was here, things look weird 520 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 5: on defense. 521 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 4: Yeah that's my point. Yeah, that's my point because guess 522 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 4: what he would be crashing down just like Sam Williams doing, 523 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 4: and that linebacker still wouldn't be feeling and you still 524 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 4: have that forty yard touchdown. 525 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Barr Mike could be playing corner some. 526 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, Coach Schottenheimer. 527 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 8: Coach Shottenheimer addressed changes with the lineup. Give me one 528 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 8: you'd like to make? 529 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 7: Lay Satagan. 530 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 8: Coach Schottenheimer addressed changes with the lineup, Give me one 531 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 8: you'd like to make? 532 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 2: Can I get a boys credit? 533 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 5: While she's thinking, Sam and Fouler got list got less 534 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 5: reps this week? I thought that was important shut out 535 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 5: to them. It ain't helped nothing, but I did notice 536 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 5: that they had list reps and clowney and kneeling got more. 537 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 5: Still got to figure out a little bit, But that's 538 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 5: a change. So shouts out to them for. 539 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 8: Doing that right offense your defense, you can make it. 540 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 7: Well, there are two things. No, it's because I don't 541 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 7: want to say it. I don't want to say say. 542 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 5: It, write it down, I say no, sign it. 543 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 2: Well, it just. 544 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 7: Goes back to the previous question and what I was saying, like, 545 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 7: I don't like talking. No, I don't like talking about 546 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 7: people's jobs, you know. But if there was a change 547 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 7: to be made, there would be two. One I'm meet 548 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 7: the trades, like. 549 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 4: I don't want to say it, but I got two 550 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 4: more than what you asked for. 551 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 7: It don't One is a trade. I'm making a trade happen. 552 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 7: I don't care what you guys say about the pigs 553 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 7: next year and all that. I want someone that has 554 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 7: the experience already. I don't have time to develop players. 555 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 7: I need one that has the experience to come in 556 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 7: here and stay for here next year. 557 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 8: Okay, a word with you, please, No, I've. 558 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 7: Seen it happen already. Okay, enough, it's enough. And then 559 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 7: the other one, I would change a voice. I would 560 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 7: change a voice. 561 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 2: That's a polite way to say it, boy, because I want. 562 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 7: To hear some other different type of inspiration some other 563 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 7: different type of ideas. Let's brainstorm in there and just 564 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 7: hear it from somebody else. And that's all I would 565 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 7: say on that point. 566 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 5: That's classy as hell, and that's a great way to 567 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 5: say fire today the Fens coordinator, I. 568 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 7: Don't want you to translate to reward. 569 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 4: What I was. 570 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 2: I need a new voice. 571 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 5: Oh that's fantastic, Ahead Brow, I'm sorry. 572 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 4: I think I'm changing the right tackle. I think I've 573 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 4: seen enough there. I think Nate Thomas. I think Thomas 574 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 4: might give me a little bit better, a little bit 575 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 4: better production consistently, because I will say this, I thought 576 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 4: at least and maybe it may take a little while 577 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 4: for them to get back to it. The right side 578 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 4: of the offensive line earlier in the year, I felt 579 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 4: like was giving you a really good push in the 580 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 4: run game. This last game that wasn't happening. And maybe 581 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 4: it was the opponent. Maybe it was going to take 582 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 4: a while for Bookering him to get back on the 583 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 4: same page. But I just feel like that was the 584 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 4: part of Steele's game that I actually was appreciating, was 585 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 4: he was giving me something in the run game. If 586 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 4: this last game is an indication of where we're going 587 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 4: to be then I would say, let's let's get Nate 588 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 4: out there. Maybe you can get a little bit more 589 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 4: out of one or the other. But right now, I 590 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 4: just feel like that's that's the weakest link in my 591 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 4: opinion on the offensive line right now, outside of getting 592 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 4: your center back. When you get your center back, I 593 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 4: think that'll shure that up a little bit more. 594 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 5: Brian, I think we should find a new Green Die guy. 595 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 5: I think we should find a new Green Die guy. 596 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 5: And if the biggest problem is communication, then you can 597 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 5: kind of go to the nucleus of the defense. I 598 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 5: will say, which is our Green guy. I'm just man 599 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 5: as nice as I can say it. Man, you know 600 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 5: he fantastic Washington game. You had a fantastic Giants game, 601 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 5: but you've had more. You know, if you have like 602 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 5: a great game and maybe like a cool to average 603 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 5: or a bad game, I think there's a you know, 604 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 5: you can I can hang around and I can hang 605 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 5: with you, I can defend you publicly. But if you 606 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 5: have like a fantastic game and the worst game I've 607 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 5: ever seen and another worst game I've ever seen, then 608 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 5: maybe there needs to be changes at Green Doyck guy, 609 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 5: what we often see is they'll rotate linebackers out, but 610 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 5: they'll rotate the opposite guys, but they'll keep green Dock 611 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 5: guy in there. I'm trying to be nice like Ambar, 612 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 5: but but but they'll keep green Dock Guy. 613 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 7: I'm in my head right now, I'm like anything, you 614 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 7: ain't say nothing. 615 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 5: I said it. I think this team could benefit. I 616 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 5: think Mary's lee if I would be a fantastic green 617 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 5: dock guy. It may not be the best linebacker that 618 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 5: you have right now, but he is smart. And if 619 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 5: your biggest problem is communication, as long as you run 620 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 5: in the right direction, you may overrun it. But as 621 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 5: long as you run in the right direction and you 622 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 5: can at least get everybody else on the same and 623 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 5: maybe call some things out, I think that'll be a 624 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 5: little bit of a benefit. 625 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 4: Can I say some real quick and this is to 626 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 4: the point that you were making Amber, I would say 627 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 4: even a better way to look at that is before 628 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 4: you would say because I don't love the idea of 629 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 4: changing the actual person in season. I don't think good 630 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 4: things typically come from that. What I would say might 631 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 4: be a better option is if I were, if I 632 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 4: were the head coach, maybe I would go to him, 633 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 4: and I would say, look, man, I'm not saying the 634 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 4: scheme don't work. I'm saying the scheme isn't working with 635 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 4: this set of players. What I need you to do 636 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 4: in the bye week is I need you to come 637 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 4: up with a set of plays. And maybe it's not 638 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 4: a different scheme, but I need you to figure out 639 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 4: the plays in that scheme that best fit these players. 640 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 4: If you keep asking this defensive end to crash down, 641 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 4: you want your linebackers scrape part to the outside, and 642 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 4: they're not doing it effectively. Do something different. Let the 643 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 4: defensive end stay outside and have outside contained versus having 644 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 4: him crash down. Maybe that's a better way to do it. 645 00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 4: I would just say, don't change the say I need 646 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 4: you to flip We've tried it for nine weeks. At 647 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 4: that point, if it ain't working, it ain't working. It's 648 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 4: time to say it ain't working, try something different. That's 649 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 4: where I would be making the big changes is change 650 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 4: change the script. Like whatever you're doing is not working. 651 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 4: You need to flip the script and do something very 652 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 4: different that these players actually can execute, because right now 653 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 4: you're not gonna get new linebackers Overstone's coming back but 654 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 4: you're not gonna change all the linebackers, so you may 655 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 4: want to ask them to do something different because what 656 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 4: you're asking them, they're just not capable of doing this. 657 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 2: It's a sad part. 658 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 5: Coach gonna look at you and be like, Coach, I 659 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 5: don't have plays that ask the ends to crash. They 660 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 5: supposed to be outside. He just crash anyway. 661 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 4: Well, I will tell you this if that's the case, 662 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 4: because that was my dilemma earlier in the week when 663 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 4: I was saying that as you said, like seven eight plays, 664 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 4: the same thing was happening. If you got a player 665 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 4: that on seven or eight plays, well, is doing something 666 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 4: that you've told him specifically don't do this? Why is 667 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 4: he still playing? And that's what makes me think this 668 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 4: is not him just freelancing. If he's doing it. And 669 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 4: by the way, this is the first game we've seen 670 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: this throughout the year, because I remember mentioning it to 671 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 4: Nick this last game as we were sitting in the 672 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 4: press box, I was like, have you noticed every time 673 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 4: to get in goshed like Sam's crashing hard to the inside. 674 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 4: I'm like, he cannot be doing this over all these 675 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 4: weeks just on his own and nobody has said Sam. 676 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 4: If you continue to do this, you won't be playing. 677 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 5: Sam got mad on the internet. But we ain't gonna 678 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 5: tell no lies about your brother. If you get cracked, 679 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 5: the technique is to cross face because if they cracking you, 680 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 5: they run on the other side of that crack. Ain't 681 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 5: nothing wrong with getting cracked because sometimes you don't see 682 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 5: the crack. Donvinezerak, who does it real well, if you 683 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 5: crack him, he'll instantly cross face and he'll get back 684 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 5: in the fight. You can't get cracked all the way 685 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 5: to the other sea gap. I ain't made him no 686 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 5: lives about nobody. I could do a film session me 687 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 5: and ambar Win an Emmy on it. I ain't lyning 688 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 5: about nobody. It's the small technical things. You can't run 689 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 5: around with your eyes closed. You gotta find the ball 690 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 5: carry Sometimes it looked like your edge rush are running 691 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 5: around with their eyes closed, or run down the middle 692 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 5: people with their eyes closed. 693 00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 2: You can't win like that. 694 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 8: Here's my last hot take. I know we got to 695 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 8: go to break though, but. 696 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 2: Oh trust me, Darren, I go. 697 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 8: This is everything that everybody's saying is absolutely true. But 698 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 8: there's a bigger, fundamental problem. Was that it's the interview 699 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 8: process of hiring your coaches is really well, sure, and 700 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 8: I say this in this way, and it's unfortunate the 701 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 8: last three years you've had three different coordinators. We've talked 702 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 8: about that, We've talked about the style of players, you 703 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 8: have the players that are currently on the roster and stuff. 704 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 8: But if you have a team that is really good 705 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 8: in one specific area or is built in one specific area, 706 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 8: and you feel like, listen, we can't completely overhaul the 707 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 8: team just for this coach. It's about the hiring of 708 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 8: the coach. It's about the process of knowing when you're 709 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 8: going to hire. Yeah, they have familiarity to the front office. 710 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 8: They have familiarity with Matti Refluce. Matti Refluse is a 711 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 8: good coordinator. He has been in the past. The problem is, though, 712 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 8: if you have a team that's been built a certain 713 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 8: way and then you try to say, Okay, we're going 714 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 8: to bring this guy in because we have some familiarity 715 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 8: with him. And this is what's unfortunate about with Shaddy 716 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 8: as a first year head coach. You know, maybe he 717 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 8: had an idea of who he wanted to bring in offensively, 718 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 8: but maybe he didn't have an idea what he wanted 719 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 8: to do defensively, and maybe he didn't have enough time 720 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 8: to really think about it, but. 721 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 2: Clayton Adams was one of the when. 722 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 8: You when you start to think about like, okay, well 723 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 8: we have familiarity with Matti Eberflus as a coach, Well, 724 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 8: what's his scheme, what does he like to do, how 725 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 8: does he like to play? Well, let's look at the 726 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 8: next thing. Is our team built in a way currently 727 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 8: to play that type of. 728 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 2: Scheme where the defensive I think. 729 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 8: That I think that you have to It's it's really 730 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 8: it's bigger than that. It's bigger than guys coming down 731 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 8: and run a linebacker scraping and all that. You have 732 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 8: a team that was built a certain way for certain coaches. 733 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 8: It's not built for this current coordinator to be that way. 734 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 8: And that's why when Derek has to ask the head 735 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 8: coach to walk in there and say, hey, come up 736 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 8: with three things. Come up with three things, the coordinator 737 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 8: look at him and say like, hey, I've been doing 738 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 8: this a long time. 739 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 4: You know if we. 740 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 8: Had players that could do this, That's that's the biggest 741 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 8: disconnect to me that if you want to, if you 742 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 8: want to talk about Dallas Cowboys defensive football issues, it's 743 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 8: you have players that don't fit with this cord. 744 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 7: Well, does that fall under the experience of like, again, 745 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 7: remembering this as far as year year one, you've had a. 746 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 8: Lot of injuries though too, they've had a lot of injuries, 747 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 8: but they but you have a team that you know, 748 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 8: you had a team that was built with that. You 749 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 8: had Dan Quinn players, you got Mike Zimber players. You've 750 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 8: got players, and now you've got a scheme in because 751 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 8: you went and hired a coach. I think because you 752 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 8: had a first year head coach. You had a guy 753 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 8: that probably didn't have a whole lot of time putting 754 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 8: together a staff. And so to me, that's the number 755 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 8: one fundamental issue right now you have players that are 756 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 8: built to play a different way and until you get 757 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 8: players that play but then. 758 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 4: Again, what are we gonna do? 759 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 8: Oh, we're all getting mad at the coordinator and rightfully, so, okay, 760 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 8: now we get rid of the coordinator. Okay, now that's 761 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 8: the fourth coordinator that we're gonna have. And do we 762 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 8: have players that are built for how it's his scheme? See, 763 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 8: this is where the attention to detail when it comes 764 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 8: to hiring coaches is so important because you look at 765 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 8: teams like the Ravens and others that when they lose 766 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,240 Speaker 8: a coach, they have the next one ready that knows 767 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 8: the scheme and knows how to play the scheme and 768 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 8: knows the players. They have somebody ready to go. You 769 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 8: don't have that luxury here right now, and I think 770 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 8: you're paying for it. 771 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 4: All right, We're gonna take our final break. Only come back. 772 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 4: We'll get some questions from you guys. See what you 773 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 4: guys got out there to say?

It is the final segment of the break 838 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 4: Laugh from the SWBC Mortgage studios at the Star. We're 839 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 4: gonna take some phone calls here in the final segment, 840 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 4: we got a call from Brian out in Kansas City. Brian, 841 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 4: what up? 842 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 13: Good morning ladies and gentlemen. 843 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 2: What's that big? 844 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 4: Don't hey? 845 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 13: So my question is really a from a pro scouting 846 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 13: point of view, and I'm not against moving Lea Fou 847 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 13: to Begreen dot guy, but from the outside, is it 848 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 13: realistic in the middle of the season to bring in 849 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 13: a Mike linebacker, give him the green dot and say, hey, Tiger, 850 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 13: go get them. You know, I'm just curious, and I'm 851 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 13: not talking about the oddball guy like Luke Kinkley or 852 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,399 Speaker 13: a Sean Lee. We know that you give that guy 853 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 13: two weeks, you'll have the whole defense figured out and 854 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 13: be teaching everybody else. But from a pro scouting point 855 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 13: of view, is it realistic for most people to bring 856 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 13: him in mid season? Or is edge defender? Are we 857 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 13: kind of boxed into edge defenders kind of the only 858 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 13: thing you can do at this point in the season. 859 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 13: And I'll hang up and listen. 860 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 7: Thank you. 861 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 2: Fantastic question, man. 862 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 5: I think that's that's something that you have to think about, 863 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 5: Like these Mike linebackers are really as good as they 864 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 5: know what's happening. Well, boy, this is the rare situation 865 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 5: of the Cowboys that you have yourself in. It's just 866 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 5: like the linebackers you have right now, just all over 867 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 5: the place. So if you have a linebacker that he 868 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 5: may not know everything about this system, but he's simply 869 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 5: just not just not all over the place, and you know, 870 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 5: maybe he can just read keys a little bit better. 871 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 5: You're just trying to get a little better. And lucky 872 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 5: for us it's still October now. Then maybe he'll know 873 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 5: the system by November December when you're really trying to 874 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 5: make this run. 875 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 8: Yeah. I think there's certain linebackers and I mean, and 876 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 8: I know it probably is not against I mean, we 877 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,320 Speaker 8: saw Roquan Smith. Did you traded him from the Bears? 878 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 8: And I know Roquan Smith is is a is a 879 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 8: rare player that way, But I think there's some linebackers 880 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 8: that you could absolutely bring in here and and and 881 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 8: and they can make a difference right off the jump. 882 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,399 Speaker 8: I know, uh, we can't really talk about names because 883 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 8: they're still on. But there's there's a couple that I've 884 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 8: looked at that I know, uh that if they were 885 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 8: given it, if you traded something for them and brought 886 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 8: them in, I think you can immediately plug them in 887 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 8: and there and they're not named Roquan Smith or anything 888 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 8: like that. 889 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 5: Plush Cover three at the Dallas Cowboys is just like 890 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 5: Cover three at nat Just High School. 891 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 4: You want to expound on that, Uh. 892 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 5: Cover three is basically uh to do was in the 893 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 5: flat and three dudes deep. However you decide to work 894 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 5: that out. It could be two corners and one free deep. 895 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 5: It could be a free and a strong and a 896 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 5: corner deep. As long as it is they got configuration, 897 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 5: you got it, and two guys in the flat got 898 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 5: had that good stuff. 899 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 4: Let's get a call from Carmine in New Jersey. 900 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 3: What's up, Hey, how you doing? I got I have 901 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,720 Speaker 3: a quick question, but I got to tell a story 902 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 3: real fast for three seconds. 903 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 5: Well got two seconds, all. 904 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 3: Right, So WoT this is out for you. I'm actually 905 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 3: in New Jersey and I just wanted to let you 906 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 3: know in my meetings. When we have a meeting, I 907 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 3: start out by saying, Man, yes, serious, So just for 908 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 3: the note of it, the whole New Jersey says man. 909 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 2: Now that's all your brother, what you got for? 910 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 3: Yes, sir, all right. My question is, Brian, you just 911 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,280 Speaker 3: said a couple of seconds ago about the player personnel, 912 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,879 Speaker 3: which I agree, But don't you think good coach would 913 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 3: adapt to the coaching style of the players. 914 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 8: Well, I think that's what I'm saying. These coaches are 915 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 8: a lot of them. I know Mike Zimmer, Bill Parcells 916 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 8: allowed him to coach this four to three defense for 917 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 8: Bill's first year and then but he told Mike, he goes, 918 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 8: if you're still going to stay around, you're gonna have 919 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:18,879 Speaker 8: to learn how to coach at three four, And Mike 920 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 8: did to the to Mike's credit, and Mike learned that way. 921 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 8: But I think a lot of it has to do 922 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 8: when you're when you're a brand new coach on a staff. Now, 923 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 8: Matt's been around a long time and every and Matt 924 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 8: has his ways of coaching three coaching. I think there's things. Yeah, 925 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 8: you have to absolutely adapt, but this mean this to 926 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 8: me seems like they haven't adapted well. Enough, and if 927 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 8: there's not a willingness to do that, then Matt was 928 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 8: the wrong hire. You have to have that willingness to 929 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 8: be able to adapt. But to me, this just goes 930 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 8: back to three coordinators in three years. I think you're 931 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 8: asking a lot of I think you're asking a lot 932 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 8: of the coordinator. I think you're asking a lot of 933 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 8: the players. But again, the front off is like, you know, 934 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 8: if we keep having turnovers at coordinator, doesn't it doesn't it? 935 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 8: I think they learned their lesson. Make sure that you 936 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 8: have the coordinator that can can currently coach the style 937 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 8: of play that your players are good at. That takes 938 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,919 Speaker 8: a lot of that. Well, you need to adapt. That's 939 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,919 Speaker 8: that's a big thing for a coach that's been doing 940 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 8: this for a long time. 941 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 4: Well, you know one of the things that I would 942 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 4: think about Brian there you mentioned Zimmer. I think when 943 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 4: you hire an experienced and a really good defensive coordinator, 944 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 4: I think there is an expectation that that guy can 945 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 4: adapt to the players that they have. Because if you 946 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 4: look at Zimmer last year, it didn't start off Rosie, 947 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 4: he said he wish he would have done to his 948 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 4: own way. He said, he goes I wish I would have. 949 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 8: Done what I wanted to do earlier instead of try 950 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 8: and play to the strengths. 951 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 4: What I got. But I guess my point though, is 952 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 4: with an experienced defensive coordinator, whatever you start off doing, 953 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,800 Speaker 4: I think there's an expectation that you have the ability 954 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 4: to be able to adapt as the season wears on 955 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:57,799 Speaker 4: to whatever you need to do, whether that is do 956 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 4: more of this, more of that, more of that, your experience, 957 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,720 Speaker 4: you're good at it, figure it out. That's where again 958 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 4: I get back to that's where I would challenge if 959 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 4: I'm the head coach, I would can't challenge ibra Flus 960 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 4: at this point to say it's not working. What you're saying, 961 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 4: what you're wanting them to do is not working. Now 962 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 4: it's time for you to figure out how to adapt. 963 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 4: And I think that's where that's the difference between hiring 964 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 4: a guy who's had success in the NFL as a 965 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator and has been a good defensive coordinator and 966 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 4: a guy that's the first time defensive coordinator. You may 967 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 4: have had that faith in them to be able to adapt. 968 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:32,400 Speaker 4: I would suggest you should be able to have that 969 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 4: kind of faith in an experienced, high quality defensive coordinator, 970 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 4: and that's where I would challenge him to do that well. 971 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 7: Also, when you talk about the players, and I know 972 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 7: a lot of people want to discuss, oh, well, you 973 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 7: don't have the talent, you don't have the talent on 974 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 7: the field, And to that, I would say, there are 975 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 7: players are our talent and we've mentioned it here before, 976 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 7: we've seen them play at a higher level. But at 977 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 7: the same time, I find it very hard to believe 978 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 7: that even with backup players, that they're unable to play 979 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:04,720 Speaker 7: at a certain level. I mean, there's a reason why 980 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 7: you're in the NFL backup or not backup. You're in 981 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 7: here because you're trusted to have the abilities or capabilities 982 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,439 Speaker 7: for you to be able to do something at least 983 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 7: I'm not saying be groundbreaking and start, you know, getting 984 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 7: interceptions every time, turnovers and all that, but at least 985 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,439 Speaker 7: to be able to cover a guy, be close enough 986 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 7: nowhere to go know what's happening. The amount of time 987 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 7: we're seeing games and that someone is completely open, it's 988 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 7: like what in the world, Like, what is happening? What 989 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 7: is happening? So I think there's something to be said 990 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,399 Speaker 7: with the lack of communication and people knowing exactly where 991 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 7: they should be and who's doing what, who's doing what 992 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 7: job and all that. So all of that to me 993 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 7: personally comes down to the leader in that room. 994 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 4: All Right, we appreciate you guys, join us. We go 995 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,399 Speaker 4: back tomorrow. We don't that was only who we had 996 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:55,439 Speaker 4: for now.
