1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,640 Speaker 1: Hey, Bill Morey, how's it gone. Nice to go and 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: get a win on the road yesterday. Always good to 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: win in this league, talked to win on the road. Um, 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,159 Speaker 1: good to win in Cleveland. Good, good team win. But 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: we've got good contributions from all areas, offensive defense, special teams, 6 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: running game, path and game on both sides of the 7 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: ball was competitive. So it's good to come home with 8 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: a win. Bill. One of the things that I thought 9 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: you guys really did well yesterday is the way you 10 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 1: were able to play the run against the Cleveland Browns 11 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: and basically slow Nick Chubb down in that Cleveland run game. 12 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: What was the biggest thing that now that you were 13 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: able to look at the film that really stood out 14 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: that helped to leading to you guys to be able 15 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: to do that. Defensively, it's two big thanks were team 16 00:00:54,400 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 1: defense and tackling. So we tackled well. Uh. Chub has 17 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: a lot of long plays because they're well blocked, and 18 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: then he has also a lot of long plays because 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: they the defense can't can't tackle them. He breaks tackles 20 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: or makes guys miss and then turns, you know, seven 21 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: and eight yard runs into thirty and fifty. So, Um, 22 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: tackling in the secondary yesterday was was good. And overall 23 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: we played across the front competitively against again a very 24 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: good offensive line, a very good running back, great running back, 25 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: and a team that's very well coached that they do 26 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: a good job with the fundamentals and techniques on the 27 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: offensive line and also uh skiming things up to give 28 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: the defensive problems. They certainly gave us some problems in 29 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: the running game that we had to adjust to, and 30 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: I thought our you know, defensive coaches and defensive players 31 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: did a good job of recognizing those things and you know, 32 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: making some adjustments to make it difficult for Cleveland to run. 33 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: But they're still a good running team and they're they're 34 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: they're tough to stop. You know. That's that's a good 35 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: that's good football team. Um in the running game, on 36 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: the line and at the tight ends and the scheme 37 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: and obviously they have a great back Bill. Congratulations on 38 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 1: tying George Allis with three four wins as a head coach. 39 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 1: What does that mean to you? Yeah, I think I've 40 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: talked plenty of about that. This game. It's not about me, 41 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: it's about our team, and it's a great team win 42 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:34,679 Speaker 1: in Cleveland and it's yeah, unmove off that subject. We've 43 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: talked enough about it. Bill. Statistically, we've been able to 44 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: see Bailey's growth since coming in at Lambeau. But for 45 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: you as the head coach, what's been the biggest point 46 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: of growth that you've you've seen out of him? Oh, 47 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: just getting better at at some of the little things. Um, 48 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: they're important to make fake things happen. There's still a 49 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: long way to go, a lot to learn, a lot 50 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: of things that that we can improve on at every 51 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: position and collectically as an offense. So we'll keep working 52 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: on those. I saw that I saw a video of 53 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: he and Mac walking into the game yesterday together. How 54 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: important and instrumental has Mac Bennett in preparing him for games? Yeah, 55 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: Mack does a great job. He goes a great leadership 56 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: and great presence there for the for our entire team, 57 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: especially offensively, in in the quarterback room. Um, you know, 58 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: Max got a lot of a lot of insight having 59 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: played especially you know a team like this that he 60 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: played last year. Um, you know, he's got a lot 61 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: of great insight and in all the time, whether you 62 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: know where he's playing or in the the last couple of weeks, 63 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: and he wasn't playing. He's still you know, it has 64 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: a lot to us if Mac is one hundred percent 65 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: healthy this week because he's starting Monday night against the Bears. Yeah, 66 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: that wasn't an option yesterday he was he wasn't active 67 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: for the game, so there was really no option to 68 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: play him. Bill, when you look at your defense, I 69 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: think another thing that you know stood out to me, 70 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: and it's kind of been standing out every single week is, uh, 71 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: defensively your ability to create turnovers. Saw a couple of interceptions, 72 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: guys making great plays on the ball in the back end, 73 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: but really some good pressure on the quarterback leading to 74 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: some errand throws. Um, what's the biggest focus that you 75 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: guys are doing weekend and week out to really emphasize 76 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: maybe creating turnovers. Well, I think you hit it where 77 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: you have a team defense. Um, you know, nothing else 78 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: pass coverage weren't a good pass rush, nothing else good 79 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: pass rush better than good pass coverage, nothing that helps 80 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: a good pass rush better than stopping a run. And 81 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: you know, taking the putting a team in a passing situation. 82 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: So it's a lot of complimentary football and good team defense. Um. 83 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: You know, when when you're getting corrective plays out of 84 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: you know, all levels of your defense, the front, the linebackers, 85 00:04:54,680 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: the secondary. Then that's that's when those things happen. So, um, 86 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: you know, it's get a lot of guys you know, 87 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: playing well together, communicating well, and you know, working with 88 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: each other, and we're playing with good fundamentals that those 89 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: are really the keys to it. Bill Isaiah wins false 90 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: start was his eighth penalty of the season. How do 91 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: you balance giving guys opportunities to get back into the 92 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: game and make up for something and then also taking 93 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: them out when it doesn't seem like they're they're improving. Well, 94 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: we have too many penalties offensively, period, so we've we've 95 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: got to cut those that back. Um, it's just it's 96 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: too many of everything. So we just got to do 97 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: a better job of coaching it. Um, we have to 98 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,679 Speaker 1: make better decisions on the field. We've got to stop 99 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: going backwards with the penalties. That's just it's we have 100 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: good production offensively, but then we you know, we played 101 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: like that we put ourselves it's such a disadvantage that 102 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: it's it's just sometimes too hard to overcome. So we 103 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: gotta we gotta coach it. Better, and we've gotta play 104 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: it better. Um, gotta you know, be more conscious of 105 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: that and execute better on the field. A lot of 106 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: those penalties are really unforced airs. There are faults, you know, 107 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: delay a game and you know fall stars and things 108 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: like that. We have multiple penalties yesterday and so as 109 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: a team, we've got to coach and play better. Bill. 110 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: How exciting is it to see Taekwon Thornton's explosiveness, Uh, 111 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: take effect right away in game one there as he 112 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: had two touchdowns yesterday, right yeah, you know, Um, we 113 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: had him last week to bud. He's it's good to 114 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: have him out there. It's good to have everybody out 115 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 1: there that we have. We're missing some guys that are 116 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: working hard to get back and it'll be good to 117 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: see them back out there. You know. I'm sure that 118 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: back as quickly as they can. But that's nice to 119 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: have taiquon there and it made a couple of big 120 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: plays for us yesterday. Um. But it's good to have 121 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: all the healthy players that we have on the field 122 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,239 Speaker 1: all the way. Is there a memo going out today 123 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: about not trying to hand you the game ball during 124 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: the game, waiting till afterwards. Well, it's always exciting to 125 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: for guys and make plays and and uh exciting for 126 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: all of us. So we're happy when we when we 127 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: make them. But yeah, gotta he's gotta move on, Bill. 128 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: One of the things that Zappy did really well yesterday 129 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: was spreading the ball around to a bunch of different receivers. 130 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: Going into the game, it seemed like Matt Patricia put 131 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: together a good game plan, a good balanced game plan. 132 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: Uh what is it that maybe Zappy does well when 133 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: it comes to spreading the ball around to other players 134 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: and making sure that you know, he doesn't lock in 135 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: on one player. Oh well, yes, you know, unless it's 136 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: a screen pass, there's no one design player to get 137 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: the ball. The ball goes to the player that has 138 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: the best matchup or that's open. So um, and a 139 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: quarterback's job is to find the best matchup, find the 140 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: open receiver and getting the ball and less it's a 141 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: one man play than which there aren't very many of those. Um. 142 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: Everybody's alive on the route and just depends on what 143 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: the defense is in and what the matchup is where 144 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: it all goes. So you know, that's all all a 145 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: function of the play and the way that the defense 146 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: gets called and and who's where on the you know, 147 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: when the defense deploys and and declares their matchups. So 148 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: sally the decision making process after the snap, we don't 149 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: know who the ball is going to and the other 150 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: it's the quarterback until the play begins. So that's that's 151 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: really how that works out. There's no set designed to 152 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: throw two passes to every player. We can't control that. 153 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: We we don't know what defense they're going to be in, 154 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't want them to do that anyway. So 155 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, we've got to you gotta take where attack 156 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: the defense where it's most vulnerable. Bill, you've said multiple 157 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: times that it's a hypothetical question that you're not interested 158 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: in addressing regarding the quarterback situation. But is Bailey Zappy 159 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: competing to have that job or is it Mac Jones's 160 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: job whenever it is that he becomes fully healthy to 161 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: return to the field ocause every player's job to be 162 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: ready to go, that's their job. So Mac was an 163 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: active yesterday, So there's nothing to really talk about. Bill. 164 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: You brought up decision making, right, Zappy is not a 165 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: tremendous job of making the right decisions, Whether that's you know, 166 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: finding like you said, the open receiveral or you know, 167 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: not throwing it into an area that could potentially lead 168 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: to a turnover. As was that something that you notice 169 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: from him coming out of college was his decision making 170 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: because we know he said a bunch of records at 171 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: the college level. Is that just something when you watch 172 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: him play you knew that this guy had that? Well yeah, 173 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: I mean I think he did a good job of that. 174 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: But again, as you know, doing that at one level 175 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: and doing at the NFL level is two different things. 176 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: So you know, players can do some things in college 177 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: and then when they get to the NFL, those things 178 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: don't really manifest themselves. And sometimes vice versa. Maybe they 179 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: didn't get a chance to do some things in college 180 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: and then get a chance to do him in the 181 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: NFL and they're really good at him. So yeah, I 182 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 1: think the big part of any any rookie players you 183 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: take the skills that he has to decide whether or not, 184 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, you think that those skills would transfer positively 185 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 1: to your team, And then look at the players approach, 186 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 1: work ethic, etc. And try to gauge how much he'll 187 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: improve and what roomy has improve and how much you 188 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,319 Speaker 1: will improve, and so that's all all the rookies improved. 189 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: We know that all players get better with experience and 190 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: with opportunity, but some guys improve more than others, and 191 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: some guys you know are able to um, you know, progress, 192 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: they progress a different race. So it's until you actually 193 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: worked with the player. I don't think you know for 194 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: sure how all that's going to turn out. And some 195 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: guys have obviously turned out better than others if you 196 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: look back through the history of rookies here at the Patriots, 197 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: so it's not really a predictable thing. We've got some 198 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: free agents that have improved and thank great players about 199 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: other other guys that were on high draft choice is 200 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: good then proved nearly as much so any exact science 201 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: bill You've said on this show before that you don't 202 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: really know your your team really isn't what it is 203 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: until week five. I think it was what you said 204 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: to us um. So is it fair to compare Max 205 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: Warrants weeks one through three with with Bailey's Appy's performance 206 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 1: week six, I don't look at it that way. Now 207 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: to that same point, do you know who this team 208 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: is now? At week six? It seems like the guys 209 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: seem are right on que jelling at the time that 210 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: you would like them too. I think we've improved since 211 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year, like every team in the 212 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 1: league has. I think we have to continue to work 213 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 1: on the things that we can can do better and 214 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: and take it to a higher level. That's that's really 215 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: what our job is um as coaches, to identify those 216 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: and and to make the adjustments we need to make 217 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: and to get more production out of out of all 218 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: three units and the players that we have have out there. 219 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: Um So that's that's the continuing process that will go 220 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: on through until the final game of the season whenever 221 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: that is. It's not really gonna it's not really gonna change, 222 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: but I think we're getting there. Some things we need 223 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: to address, obviously, and we'll do that. We have to 224 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: make adjutments are changes, which is part of the game. 225 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: We always need to do that. That's what we'll do. 226 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: If we can do some of the things that we're 227 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: doing better instead of changing, then we'll leave him the 228 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 1: way they are and hopefully doing better. Bill yesterday, Myles Garrett, 229 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: he breaks the Browns all time sack record. You know, 230 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: seeing a player like that You've been around a lot 231 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: of great edge rushes. What makes Miles Garrett he had 232 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: to sacks yesterday. What makes him such a difficult player 233 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: to defend? I think he's one of the highest when 234 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: it comes to see him double teams in the NFL 235 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: and is still able to be productive. What about Miles 236 00:13:55,080 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: Garrett makes it so difficult to defend that player? Yeah, Um, 237 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: he's really tough. H That's pretty much everything. He's Long's 238 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: got a high motor, very quick off the ball, so 239 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: he can work around blockers. But he's also strong and 240 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: explosive and can come back inside. I can counter his length, quickness, explosiveness, 241 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: and I would say just general instincts. You know, he's 242 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: he made a number of plays yesterday that I don't 243 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: know if there's too many other guys that would have 244 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: made him. Um, he see's really a special player. Of 245 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: kind of respect for him, and we tried to get 246 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: him as much as we could. Um, they moved him 247 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: around a little bit. We could have done a better job, 248 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: you know, coaching wise, I could have done a better 249 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: job and getting things arrangel differently. But yeah, they got 250 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: us a few times. He got us a couple of 251 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: times and he's Yeah, he's a tough matchup. I know 252 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: when talking to media today, you didn't give any update 253 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: on Christian Barmore, but Kendrick Bourne was seen walking in 254 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: a walking boot after the game. Um, is there any 255 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: update there? No, not yet. Well you always talk about 256 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: depth in how it's next man up. Is it a 257 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: good problem to have when you have two quarterbacks that 258 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: you feel like you can you know, win and go 259 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: a long way with And it seems like what Zappi 260 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: and Mac Jones off of what Mac was able to 261 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: do last year, what type of when you look at that, 262 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: is that something good for a coach? I know there's 263 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: always going to be a lot of questions about quarterback controversy, 264 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: but is it something that you look and go, hey, Lis, 265 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: this is something good that we know that our back 266 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: up can step in or in our stodder could show 267 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: that he can take a team to uh, you know, 268 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: deep deep into the season, in into the playoffs. We 269 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: as a coach, you always want as many good players 270 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: as you can get. So that's that's true at every position, 271 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: with every player and always try to help them improve 272 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: and be better players. So that's that's our job. Yeah, 273 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: we'll keep working at that. All right, Bill, I do 274 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: the short straw this week on this one.
