Yeah, it would 9 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 2: be at least a month, probably longer. We haven't could be. 10 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 2: We haven't decided whether do it or not. Though get 11 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 2: hurt during the game, had a bruise on his knee. 12 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, you guys have to say whether they're questionable today 13 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 4: because it's Friday, or. 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't think so. That's someone messed up with just 15 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: Ron bergendi this thing. 16 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 5: So a lot of people make a lot about McDonald's 17 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 5: defense and what happened last year on Christmas. What can 18 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 5: you tell us about McDonald's scheme and and what makes 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 5: it special? 20 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: I mean, does a real good job mixing all the 21 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,479 Speaker 2: schemes up fronts coverages as players play real hard, their 22 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: coach well, their techniques are good, good tacklers, and they 23 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: mix up the looks. 24 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 4: Different between that Seahawks squad and a Pete Carroll Seahawks squad. 25 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: I mean the schemes have changed. They run different schemes. 26 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 6: Like you know, Smith is throwing the ball probably, I 27 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 6: think maybe more than some people. 28 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: He's throwing it more than any quarterback in the UNFUS. 29 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: So how is he doing and how much. 30 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 5: Of their offense maybe calls it more around him than 31 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 5: their running game. 32 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: Uh, it's so early, so you never know, but they 33 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 2: definitely started out that way. I think Gino's doing a 34 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: hell of a job. He's got three big weapons in 35 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 2: the past game, including his tight ends. Also, his running 36 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: back is as good as it gets also, so uh, 37 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: they got some talent over there, and they can stretch 38 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: the field and Gino can get hot. 39 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 4: Do you have a reaction to Robert Solid's dismiss a 40 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 4: lot of you guys changed texts? 41 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 2: Then I have a yet, just because of how backed 42 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: up we've been. I might send him a text, but 43 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: I haven't got to talk to him. And yeah, I 44 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 2: was pretty shocked. You know, that stuff throws you off. 45 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: Especially I think they're competing for first in the division 46 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: this week, and I think they're up there on defense 47 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: and got a pretty good team and a chance to 48 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 2: have a hell of a year. So that was pretty surprising. 49 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 3: What has Malleton's job done well so far and how 50 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 3: has he been in the sort of communication aspect of 51 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 3: his job. 52 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 2: I think communication is one of the hardest things, especially 53 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: for a young guy coming in. I think he's been 54 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: getting better at that the more he's been out there. 55 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 2: I think, you know, just as lack of not has. 56 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 2: I think I saw that a little in preseason, just 57 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 2: with some of the hits he had, especially he saw 58 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 2: a couple in that Tennessee game from what I remember, 59 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: and when he's coming he's done the same stuff. I 60 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 2: think he gets faster each week, just recognizing things and 61 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: not breaking down and trying to run through his tackles. 62 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 3: You have the same volume of plays and the same 63 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: size of a playbook on a Thursday game as you 64 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 3: do for a Sunday game. 65 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd say the same size. 66 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 2: You don't try to put it in as much new 67 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 2: stuff for things that take a while to get down. 68 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes we overwhelm. 69 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: Guys on Wednesday, but you can repeat it on a 70 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 2: Thursday and Friday and come back to it and eventually 71 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: it sticks. So you try not to do that with 72 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 2: new stuff, but volume wise is much different. 73 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 6: Kay, I do no harm approach to special teams, which 74 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 6: can be read as like, well, why would you want 75 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 6: to make it as great as possible and make a difference? 76 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 6: Is that an accurate reading and kind of what is 77 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 6: your philosophy? As far as I guess we want referring 78 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 6: to it, sometimes you said, you know, we don't want 79 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 6: them to screw it out. 80 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 81 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if I always had the right words 82 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 2: for that, But what I'm trying to say is you'd 83 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: like to build a team to where you don't feel 84 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: you have to return a kick a punt or have 85 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: a fake kick or a fake punt, or you don't 86 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 2: have to rely on something like that to get a win. 87 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 2: I like to feel that you feel like you can 88 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: do it between the offensive defense of just beating someone. 89 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 2: And I think in this league one of the best 90 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 2: ways to win games is to not lose a game. 91 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: To not find a way to lose it. 92 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: I mean a lot of games are given away, and 93 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 2: when it comes to special teams with amount of touchbacks 94 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: there are and stuff just extra points, getting a punt off, 95 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 2: those are opportunities to lose it with any of those 96 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 2: are blocked. There's only so many special teams plays that 97 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: go into a game, and so you don't want to 98 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: be overly risky on trying to win it there when 99 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 2: you're only going to have ten to fifteen plays. You 100 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: take out all the touchbacks and stuff. It's even less 101 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 2: than that, So you don't want to go out of 102 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: your way to to be risky to try to get 103 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: your stuff there. You'd rather do it with people who 104 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: are out there for seventy straight plays. 105 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: This would be a galvanizing moment for your team. 106 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 3: I understand it's really early, but you have a short 107 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 3: week at Seattle and then kind of that mini buy 108 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 3: to just get yourselves right before the two home games 109 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 3: before the buyers. 110 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: Like where you're at the schedule, Yeah, and I mean 111 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: so many situations. I mean, losing our last two divisional games, 112 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: haven't won this week's huge. Playing against Seattle is always huge. 113 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 2: Going up, there's always huge, and then always in the NFL. 114 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: It's it's tough to get ready for a Thursday night game, 115 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: but I think everyone enjoys them because. 116 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: There's very rare. 117 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: It's very rare that you get to sit back and 118 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: kind of enjoy that for three days and watch the 119 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 2: rest of the league, and there are a lot more 120 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 2: fun when you win, and when you get to sit 121 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 2: back and be pissed off for three days, it's not 122 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: nearly as much fun. 123 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 4: It's like we've asked these questions with you know, Robert 124 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 4: and with Tamiko early in their ten years as defensive coordinator. 125 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 4: But with did is it kind of a similar thing, 126 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 4: just kind of figuring things out? And you know, how 127 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 4: would you evaluate just the early part of his tenure 128 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 4: as deep asive coordinator. 129 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: I think Nick's doing a real good job. 130 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 2: Then pressed with him since the beginning each week, U 131 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 2: like how he handles the defensive staff, like how they 132 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 2: set up the practices, and I've liked his game plans 133 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: and I liked how he's called it. So I've been 134 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 2: real happy with Nick so far. 135 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 5: Got the red zone? Is it, you know, creating space 136 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 5: in the red zone? Is it more about your personnel 137 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 5: or is it play design? 138 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 3: Is it quickness? 139 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: What? 140 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 5: What's the key to get in that space in that 141 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 5: tight area? 142 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: Everything? 143 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: I wish I could give you guys a theme for 144 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: the red zone. But you know, you get three tries 145 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 2: when you're inside the ten and depending on what you 146 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: do when we run the ball there. I think we 147 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 2: need to be much more effective running it. You know, 148 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: when you run run the ball twice, you'd like to 149 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: get in and not just put one pressure third down 150 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 2: on the the past game. And when you do throw 151 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 2: it more then you got to make sure you come 152 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 2: through with those, especially not having a negative play with those. 153 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 2: So running the ball better takes a lot of pressure off. 154 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 2: Also give some better passing looks. We've tried both and 155 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: haven't been good enough with both though, So it's all 156 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 2: aspects of offense. 157 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: A couple of really productive games against Seattle last year. 158 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: How would you, I guess assess how he's performing specifically 159 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: as a receiver. I think Deepo is doing a good job. 160 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I think you know, he had his best game, 161 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 2: you know, at least statistically, right before he got hurt. 162 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: You know, missed a week and a half and thought 163 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: it was tough for him to come back for the 164 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 2: New England game, but we were he was able to 165 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 2: get out there and play, and I think it involved 166 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 2: a ton last week. But it's usually a matter of 167 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: time with that stuff. That stuff comes full circle and 168 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 2: Depo's too good to not eventually have a big one. 169 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 4: Do you have a timeline on Moody is I are 170 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 4: a possibility? 171 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: It's high ankle sprain. 172 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: So usually with those, I usually say about a month. 173 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: Sometimes they can surprise you and go quicker, sometimes they 174 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: can go longer. So we're not exactly sure yet. 175 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: So ir is an option. 176 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just with the how quick this happened, having 177 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: Hugh in that situation where we got to decide Moony 178 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 2: could be a possible decision. We have a number of 179 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: guys already on it, so we're just trying to weigh 180 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 2: in all that stuff. Talked a lot. 181 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 3: About Rock's ability to create with his feet and scramble 182 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 3: and by time, the fact that he's doing it so 183 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 3: much mean that you need to be doing a better 184 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: job on offense to get the ball out of his hand. 185 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 2: Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. I mean it goes 186 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: both ways. It's you know, most of the ones that 187 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: we're doing that are deeper plays. 188 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: In the deeper plays and they. 189 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 2: Get deep people and it's a three man rush that 190 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: usually cover your checkdowns. Plays we've been pretty effective with 191 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: and when they don't do it, and I think that's 192 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 2: where you see us hit some big crossers, so but 193 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: they have There's times that you want to get rid 194 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: of it quick, but people got to be open quick too, 195 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: which usually has to do with blitzers. If people blitz 196 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 2: and you get rid of it quick, you will get 197 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: rid of it quick you have to. But when they don't. 198 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 2: There's sometimes your checkdowns are covered, and when your checkdowns 199 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: are covered, I'm glad we have another option. 200 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: All right, guess thanks, they
