1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: Process. It's a process, yeah, and there's a lot of 2 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: different things that kind of come up here and there, 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: whether it be situation, the game play, call, protection, route, running, catching, throwing, 4 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: all there's a lot that comes into play with that 5 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: and it's certainly an area we need to get better 6 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,479 Speaker 1: at and we're continuing to put in the time to 7 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: continue and trust our process with how we game plan 8 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: for these things, how we scheme them, how we rep them, 9 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 1: teach them all that, but it's definitely something we need 10 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:27,639 Speaker 1: to improve on. 11 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 2: You focus on doing what you do better or do 12 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 2: you try to get created and then come up with 13 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 2: different ways to get it. 14 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: There's always a combination of those sort of factors of 15 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: doing what we do doing or things we know really 16 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,279 Speaker 1: well inside and out, but also things that put our 17 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: guys in the position to do what they do well, 18 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: but also attack a defense and how they want to 19 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: play the certain situation because every defense is different, so 20 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: every game plan changes a little bit, and there's sort 21 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: of a give and take of just do what we do, 22 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: attack what they do. Put everybody in the best position, 23 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: So kind of a case by case. 24 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: Christ when you face a team like Buffalo that scores 25 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 2: a ton of points and you know you'll have to 26 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 2: score a ton of points to beat them. 27 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 3: Does that affect how you game plan for them? 28 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: It doesn't necessarily affect the way you game plan really 29 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 1: when you play teams like that or how every single 30 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,759 Speaker 1: game the game changes as it goes. So we always 31 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: go in with the intent we're trying to score every 32 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: single drive, and then even like last week, all of 33 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: a sudden, you're in a seventeen point lead. It changes 34 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: the way you want to play the game. So you 35 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: adjust the game plan within the game based on the 36 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: situation you're in. So a team like Buffalo or these 37 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: high scoring offenses that you play when it's high scoring, 38 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: you know you have to match. You may have to 39 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: be aggressive in the way you play. You may have 40 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: to play a ball control style of game just to 41 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: keep them at bay for a little bit, give your 42 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: defense a little break. So again, it always kind of changes. Obviously, 43 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: you know you're going into a game with the plan 44 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: you're going to need to score, maybe more than you 45 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: play other teams that tend to run the ball, however 46 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: they play offense. 47 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 3: You're coming against the Bill's defense as a great defensive line, 48 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 3: great depth there. How do you game plan for a 49 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 3: defensive line that can rotate and keep guys coming in 50 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: and being fresh game one. 51 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, they do a great job as seven. Pretty much 52 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: kind of hockey subn there defensive line where it's the 53 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 1: whole two unit comes in, the one unit gets a break. 54 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: They're rolling guys in and out, and they've got a 55 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: lot of really good players, be a defensive tackle or 56 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: defensive end. It's certainly something you try to plan against. 57 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: Maybe you have times where you want to change the 58 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: tempo just to keep a certain group on the field 59 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,399 Speaker 1: or keep a certain group off the field. So there's 60 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: certainly different ways you want to attack them when teams 61 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: are doing something like that. 62 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 3: As you go, coach, sounds like von Miller's coming out 63 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 3: to London. How do you prepare for a guy that 64 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 3: we've not got any tape on for the last twelve months. 65 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: We know how special player. 66 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: Is well, either fortunately or unfortunately, we have about ten 67 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: years of tape on them, so we know what type 68 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 1: of player he's capable of being. So he's one of 69 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: those guys that you have to be aware of. He's 70 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: a game wrecker and we would imagine, you know, if 71 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: he's using bits and pieces. It's probably gonna be on 72 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: critical situations where he gets a chance to rest a passer. 73 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: But if he's playing every single down, that's something and 74 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 1: you've got to be aware of as well. So he's 75 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 1: somebody that will pay the respect he's earned. 76 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: Press. What's the value of Walker Little over these last 77 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 2: couple of years for you guys from right tackle to 78 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: left tackle to potentially left guard when that time comes. 79 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's kind of a security blanket for us, just 80 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: within the staff of knowing he can align on multiple spots. 81 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: Being able to play left tackle and right tackle is 82 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: not as easy as people think. You know, you're now 83 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: your right your right hand dominant on the right side, 84 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: left hand on the left side, so that that's a 85 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: little harder than I think people would realize. And then 86 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: being able to move inside where there's less space, everything's constricted, 87 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: everything's happens faster. A guy that can handle that and 88 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: do that at a high level is really invaluable for us. 89 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: Do you guys feel like you might be on the 90 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: verge with some of the maybe some hidden stuff. I 91 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: think it's three three and outs combined in the last 92 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 2: three games. You get a thirteen play drive at the 93 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: end of that one on Sunday, I think you're sixty 94 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: percent on the other side of the field an enemy territory. 95 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: Are those some of the things that when you're meeting 96 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: you're like, hey, a few more plays and where where 97 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: we want to be? 98 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: All those numbers I had no clue about, so that 99 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: those are great and I appreciate those when that sound good. Yeah, 100 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: it feels like we're starting to string things together. We 101 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: really just want to be efficient. We want to be 102 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: efficient and explosive. That's kind of one of our commandments 103 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: that we talk about a lot. As in offense. We've 104 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: started to gain some traction of being efficient, we're still 105 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: working to be explosive at certain times or when we 106 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: need to be. Like I mentioned earlier, I think the 107 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: dynamics of the game last week changed pretty quickly, where 108 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're up seventeen. A team that was, 109 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: you know, in all honesty, was struggling to throw the 110 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: ball at a certain times. So the game plan changes 111 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: as you get into it, or the way you play 112 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: the game changes, and I thought our guys did a 113 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: great job of that, and ultimately it came down to 114 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: the other day on Sunday. Our players made plays. When 115 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: you think of the first touchdown as Calvin and Trevor 116 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: were hot. Trevor makes a guy miss, Calvin breaks a 117 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: route off, we score a touchdown. Christian had some big 118 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: third down conversions, Evan made some big plays on some keepers, 119 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: even Calvin drawing a DPI late in the game. You know, 120 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: it won the game that we were great running the ball, 121 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: but a lot of things came off the run in 122 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: terms of the movement, some of the play passes we 123 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: had earlier. You know, we kind of it's a full system. 124 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: So you look at it and say, we didn't run 125 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: the ball great, but a lot of the things that 126 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: came off the run game were big for us. 127 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 4: Press. My question was about the run. You got some 128 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 4: traction against Houston. It felt like the last week it 129 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 4: seemed like short yards. The whole thing said, do you 130 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 4: feel like you're getting close there to where you want 131 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 4: to be or how would you assess it? 132 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: Overall? We think so, and again the dynamics of the 133 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,239 Speaker 1: game change where it wasn't. It didn't seem to benefit 134 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: us to be super aggressive and trying to get to 135 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: the perimeter and risking negative yardage plays some of it 136 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: was let's keep going straight ahead, you know, we'll pop 137 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: some of these eventually, which we did or we didn't. 138 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: We probably didn't in that game, but again, some some 139 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: movements came off. We get a thirty yard game to 140 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: Evan rolling off there on a run sell where their 141 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: defense is committed to it. We go into the game 142 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: knowing that's a really good front. You have a lot 143 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 1: of calls that you don't get to just because, again, 144 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: when you're sitting on a seventeen point lead and the 145 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: dynamics of the game change, you play the game a 146 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: little differently than you plan to when it was zero 147 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: zero and you had four quarters ahead of you. So 148 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: there are things we need to continue to get better 149 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: at those. 150 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: Move forward, coach, We saw Blake Knts come in a 151 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 3: lot of the game last last week and kind of 152 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 3: these Jombo packages. Why was that important for the way 153 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 3: you wanted to play? And it's almost the role he's 154 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: carved out on this team. 155 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, And Blake's similar to Walker and Guy that we 156 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: have a lot of trust and can do a lot 157 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: of different things. So whether it be playing guard, which 158 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: he played through training camp, playing tackle, which's kind of 159 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: done for us, and then even being available to play 160 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: tight end there in certain situations, and when you play 161 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: Atlanta and a guy Kalays Campbell sitting there on the 162 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: edge and you kind of want to match some brute 163 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: force with some brute force right there, maybe a little 164 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: better than some of our tight ends give us. So 165 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: we felt like Blake gave us an advantage in that 166 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: particular matchup. Again, it's a case by case, game by 167 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: game basis of when will utilize things like that, but 168 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: we felt like that would give us an advantage or 169 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: a better matchup than we would have had with our 170 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: tight ends doing the same thing makes us for ship
