He's doing 74 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 4: everything he can to get ready, and he's played through 75 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 4: a lot this year in particular, you know, his wrist, 76 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 4: his knee, everything. 77 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 3: He's a great dude. I know I've said that a 78 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: million times up here. 79 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 4: But he's he's what we really want to be on 80 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 4: this team, what we want to be about. You know, 81 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 4: the tough guy, does his job, loves his teammates, plays 82 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 4: with emotion. I think one of the things that jumped 83 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 4: out to me about Trey the other day was him 84 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 4: turning and running to the ball. You know, perimeter plays 85 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 4: him turning and you know, trying to strike somebody, you know, 86 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 4: as hard as he can within the confines of the 87 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 4: rules and you know, play good, clean football. But he 88 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: sprints around every play and we value that tremendously. 89 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: What do you like about the times that you guys 90 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: have been able to put inside kind of What do 91 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: you like about the snaps? 92 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think with Trey moving him around, he's one 93 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 4: of those guys where he's got so much flexibility. Because 94 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 4: the thing about Treyvon and you could play him anywhere 95 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 4: from a three technique out to a nine technique. 96 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: You see, like we dropp him in coverage. 97 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 4: He's about his talented as guy, a guy as I've 98 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 4: ever been around. You know, he can play defensive tackle. 99 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 4: He plays Ford technique and does a great job on 100 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 4: the tackle. He could play head up on the tight end. 101 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 4: And you feel like you got an advantage there, and 102 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 4: he can play as wide as a nine technique, So 103 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 4: moving him across the front has been something that's really 104 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 4: helped us, not only in the past game, but in 105 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 4: the run game this year, and certainly in the pass rush. 106 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 3: We feel like he can create matchups for us, and 107 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 3: we can get. 108 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 4: Him, you know, aligned with Josh or aligned with Eric, 109 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 4: or align with somebody else where. 110 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 3: Maybe we can manipulate what we want With the protection. 111 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 5: Episode makes a play on the very first player from 112 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 5: scrimmage or defense talk about the instincts as a linebacker. 113 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 3: For him to come out here and do something like that, 114 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 3: this is a great word because that's exactly what he has. 115 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 3: He has really good instincts. Man. 116 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 4: He You know a lot of that though, I would 117 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 4: say for Devin comes from the work he does. 118 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 3: It's pretty tedious throughout the week. 119 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 4: You know, even if you if you watched him and 120 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 4: walk through his footwork, his hand placement, where his eyes are, 121 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 4: they're not really bouncing around, so you know, if you 122 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 4: were to stand behind the offense and watch him, I 123 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 4: think his eye progression is really really good. Every play 124 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 4: that jumps out to me in preparation. You know, if 125 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 4: he's entering into a block, he's entering near foot, putting 126 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 4: himself in a position to be hairlined under chain and 127 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 4: strike with his hands, you know, so he can come 128 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 4: back and finish the play and tackle the football. So 129 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 4: he's repping those things at all times, whether it's the 130 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 4: individual work to walk through, going into practice in the 131 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 4: live setting, and then he's been able to take that 132 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 4: out there on Sunday. So it's really, yes, it's he's 133 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: got tremendous instincts, but he's building that every day in 134 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 4: the film room and out in the field. 135 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 3: So it's great to see him be rewarded for that. 136 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 5: Murdered back this week, got it and made a huge 137 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 5: force fumble right there.

Very impressed. 177 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 4: I would credit Matt Edwards, Derek LeBlanc, those guys who 178 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 4: have worked with him, and I think Danny was was 179 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 4: well coached when he came in here from college. 180 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 3: But to me, guys like that, it's so much about 181 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 3: your mindset. 182 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: You know, he is unrelenting on himself to get it right, 183 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 4: and you see that. That's kind of what jumped out 184 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 4: in camp watching him and in the off season. You know, 185 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 4: he's a guy that wants to get it right, gonna 186 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 4: do everything he can to get it right through the 187 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 4: extra and it's dividends for him. 188 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 3: But so much of that is. 189 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 4: I don't want to say how hard he is on himself, 190 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 4: but how much he demands from himself's probably a better 191 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 4: way to say that. 192 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 3: Shuffle of the secondary. 193 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: Last week he was getting here at Murray back but 194 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: not having Dewey. 195 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 4: What does it say about I mean the guys you 196 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 4: have in the safety and cornerback room that be able 197 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 4: to kind. 198 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: Of shuffle pieces and everybody kind of keeps the standards. 199 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, he you know, I thought Antonio did a great job. 200 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 3: He has done a great. 201 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 4: Job, I should say, And he's he's a guy that's 202 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 4: really got a lot of position flex because he's out 203 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 4: there sometimes playing safety, playing nickel, playing dime, and you know, 204 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 4: playing linebacker type roles too. So he's a he's a 205 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 4: bright guy because that's a lot of techniques that that 206 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 4: we ask him to play. 207 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 3: It really is when you go through it. 208 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 4: And he's a guy that's up in here in the 209 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 4: office all the time trying to do extra rayon lane. 210 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 4: I thought jumped in and did a bunch of good 211 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 4: things over that period and even the other day. So 212 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 4: it says a lot about them, But it also says 213 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 4: a lot about the older guys who have prepared him, 214 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. They they kind of embraced 215 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 4: him and brought him in to try and teach him 216 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 4: and get them right and are always working They're all 217 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 4: always working. 218 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 3: Together, is what I would say. It is a huge 219 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 3: part of that. 220 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 2: You run defense has been really strong this year. 221 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 3: But Breest Hall. 222 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 2: Obviously talented back. What type of maybe different challenges does 223 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 2: he bring as a as a runner? 224 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, coach against him before when I was in Miami. 225 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 4: I got a ton of respect for him as a runner. 226 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: He's made big plays in the run game in the 227 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 4: past game, and he's done that through his through his career. 228 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 4: So I've seen firsthand. You know how good of a 229 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 4: player the guy is. H I said this about a 230 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 4: couple of guys previously in weeks prior. But he's hard 231 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 4: to tackle. It's got to be a team tackling mentality. 232 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 4: And their offensive line, in my opinion, has done a 233 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 4: great job this year. They do a great job staying 234 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 4: on the down guys, moving people on double teams. Josh 235 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 4: Myers the center. He was in Green Bay with me 236 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 4: last year, so I've been around him a lot. Know 237 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 4: how talented he is, how capable he is. Both tackles 238 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 4: and guards I think are physical. I think the young 239 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 4: tight end Taylor has done a really good job for them. 240 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 4: And Rucker has always been a guy who's been a 241 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 4: poa guy that's a finisher. 242 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 3: He's a good football player. 243 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 4: So they got a lot of guys, you know, even 244 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 4: when they bring back in as a fullback, they they 245 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 4: got a lot of guys who finished blocks and they've 246 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 4: done a really good job in a run game as well. 247 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: So credit to them. 248 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 4: And it's going to be a challenge out there on Sunday, 249 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 4: and you know, we're just trying to get these guys prepared, 250 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 4: prepared to to meet that challenge. 251 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 3: I appreciate it, guys. 252 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: Trevor yesterday he was talking a little bit about his 253 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 2: growing confidence this in the offense and Liam said after. 254 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: The game that the team's growing in confidence, and he 255 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 3: can give we're back growing in confidence. Uh can you 256 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 3: see that, Trevor. 257 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 5: I mean that would practice field all the game, build 258 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 5: the confidence that that's. 259 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 3: Building and him I like it. 260 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of suspense for that question build up. Yeah, 261 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: that's awesome. Yeah, absolutely, I think you see it in 262 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: practice even in the meeting room. You feel when you 263 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: start communicating with guys and they really have a grasp 264 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: and a mastery of things. You can sense that just 265 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 1: in the communication. But it's awesome to see it materialize 266 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: on the field with some of those plays that we 267 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: all see him, whether it's on schedule or off schedule, 268 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: to play with that type of confidence is really what 269 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: we've been building towards all year long. But it takes 270 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: so much work, so much preparation, so much time on task, 271 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,319 Speaker 1: that you know it's not going to happen overnight. So 272 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: it's great to see some of the fruits of his 273 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: labor really start to materialize. 274 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 2: That's maybe the step over the last four weeks specific. 275 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: Well, it's a lot of little things. I think you 276 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: there are things that show up on TV or on 277 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 1: tape that are apparent to everybody, like some of the throws, 278 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: like you look at the throw he made to Tim 279 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: Patrick on our sideline, the throw he made to Tim 280 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: Patrick on their sideline, two critical downs, some of the 281 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: plays in the red zone, off schedule, moving around in 282 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: the pocket. Those things are apparent because of how fast 283 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: he's playing, the decision he's making. But it's even little 284 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: things with making certain calls up front, or the way 285 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: he's bringing shifts and motions and time in some of 286 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: those things up that are so you know, the details 287 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: of those things are so minute that people may not 288 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 1: notice from an outsider, but they make a big difference 289 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: to the players that he's playing with and to us 290 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: as coaches, to the scheme and the system and little 291 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: angles being lined up and being executed properly. So those 292 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: things kind of pay, you know, dividends for everybody else 293 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: in the offense that don't always show up on his 294 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: stat sheet or show up with a completion for him 295 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 1: that everyone's clapping for him, but those impact the team 296 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways, are. 297 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 5: Getting the team into the right look at Golige more 298 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 5: now too. 299 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: I think he's done a really good job of that 300 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: all year. I think it's just the speed and the 301 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: comfortability with which he's doing that has continued to improve. 302 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot that we put on guys, and it 303 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 1: is foreign for everybody. It's not just foreign for the quarterback. 304 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: It's different for the wide receivers. The way we call formations, 305 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: the way we change plays, the way we have multiple 306 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: plays in the huddles, or the way we call different 307 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: plays at the line of scrimmage and check in and 308 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: out of things. 309 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: So it was different for everybody. 310 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: So I think he's improved in that, and the wide 311 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: outs have improved. The running backs have improved at that 312 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: because even for those guys, you're up at the line 313 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: and if I'm a guarter, I'm a running back and 314 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, Okay, I got this run, what's the front? 315 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: What am I looking at? What's this block going to 316 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: play out like? And then all of a sudden everything 317 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: changes and I got a totally different play. 318 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 3: When I got to. 319 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: Restart that whole mental process and the balls getting snapped, 320 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: I might not have the time to think back through Okay, wait, 321 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: now I'm doing this run, what's the front, what's the look? 322 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: What's my cut going to be? And you have to 323 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: speed up that process, do all that in an instant 324 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: and we're getting closer and closer and closer to that 325 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: being instantaneous to where guys are processing. We're never going 326 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: to truly achieve automaticity where guys are up there and 327 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: they're just out there playing totally mindless, totally unconscious, but 328 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: that's what we're shooting for, and the closer we can 329 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: get to that, typically the better it is. 330 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 3: If you guys have said aboutch of Kobe Myers, he 331 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 3: says a great feel for the game. What are examples 332 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: of that? 333 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: More coaches stamp there's a lot of different feels. Are 334 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: a lot of different examples that show his feel. I 335 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: think the first one that shows up is kind of 336 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: his feel in space where you see some of these 337 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: teams playing zone coverage, where they have defenders who have 338 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: vision on the quarterback and they have different spots to 339 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: get to and different landmarks, or they're reading off of 340 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: what our routes are to kind of determine what their 341 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: drop's going to be. He has a feel for where 342 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: those defenders are going, where they're trying to get to, 343 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: and then where his route fits off of that, and 344 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 1: that kind of takes a second and third level order 345 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: of processing. Not just to know we tell you to 346 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: get to this spot, but this spot is going to 347 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: open up because we're telling you to get to a 348 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: spot that looks covered. But if you have a great 349 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: understanding of what the defense is doing or what the 350 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: defense is trying to do, then you can run your 351 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: route in a certain way to try to get to 352 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: that spot on the field or to try to dictate 353 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: the coverage to play a certain way. All right, now, 354 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: I run a route this way and I lean out, 355 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: but gets that defender to move out, and I opened 356 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: up my window inside. Little things like that that are 357 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: really subtle show up with him when he's running routes. 358 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: Then you see it in the run game too. With 359 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: my understanding of angles on the block, you see a 360 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: lot of plays that he's making getting down, blocking safeties, 361 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: blocking corners. I mean, he's blocking linebackers on some place. 362 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: And you really can only do that when there's a 363 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: physical mismatch at time. 364 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 3: If you have great. 365 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: Technique, great angles, you have a great understanding where the 366 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: run is going to go, where the blocks inside are going, 367 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: because how those blocks distribute will change how the safety 368 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: or the linebacker is going to trigger on the run. Right, 369 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: because they're keen. He knows, okay, the safety is keen, 370 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: the tight end or the safety is keen the tackle. 371 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: The tackle does this, this is the safety's response going 372 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: to be. And because he's responding like that, I have 373 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: to take this angle. That's a really high level, you know, 374 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: series of thought. To be able to go out there 375 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: and play fast and execute that type of block for 376 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: just a simple run play, but to be able to 377 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: process all that so fast does require really a special 378 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: feel for understanding the game of football and just to 379 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: feel for space out there. I love the. 380 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 5: Concepts speaking on Chick Coote Meyer such down down in 381 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 5: the red song. Oh could you walk us through that 382 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 5: because I see that, you know, without giving away too 383 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 5: much of your stuff. 384 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean it was really that. That's another 385 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: great play. And really he had one in Tennessee the 386 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: week before too, with a great understanding of space with 387 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: those guys where they know, hey, a coverage is going 388 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: to distribute a certain way, let me get to this spot. 389 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: And even the week before in Tennessee, like that one 390 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, he feels a defender drop out and 391 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: you probably notice on there he feels that guy drop out, 392 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: feels that space and let me just sit down right now. 393 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: Where it's tough on those type of routes because you 394 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: give him a certain landmark and say, hey, the open 395 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: space is probably going to be from here to here, 396 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: right like maybe you say it's between the hashes or 397 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: it's from the hash to the numbers. Well, that's a 398 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: lot of space that it could be open. So there's 399 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: some gray area in there, and they got to be 400 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: able to distinguish or on the fly make that decision 401 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: and be decisive and sit down. It's extra impressive in 402 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: the red zone because everything happens so fast down there. 403 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: You'll see Trevor is separating his hands, he's starting the 404 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: process of throwing before Jacoby is actually coming out of 405 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: his break, before Jacoby is looking for the ball. On 406 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: some of these touchdowns he's had, and really even some 407 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: of the deeper plays he had on some of the 408 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: incuts and some of that stuff too, he's counting on 409 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: Jacoby to be at a spot. So the connection between 410 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: those guys and the understanding where they're getting to is 411 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: really the key to what makes those plays so successful. 412 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 2: You have a bad weather game, lots of rain and 413 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 2: there's drops and ball security things. Do you just chalk 414 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 2: it up to that's going to happen in these types 415 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 2: of games, or is there like specific teaching points from 416 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 2: those things. 417 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: Well, the rain and the elements in general will always 418 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: in a sense expose your fundamentals or exacerbate the effects 419 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 1: of your fundamentals or the impact of your fundamentals. So 420 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: if guys are playing with poor footwork, it's going to 421 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: result in guys slipping and ended up on the ground. 422 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: We're in the turf, it may end up in a 423 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: dry turf, it may end up in a slight stumble 424 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: or a slight misstep, or you're not as quick off 425 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: the line, So it kind of exacerbates all the issues. 426 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 3: That show up with poor fundamentals. 427 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: So the first priority is getting us back to clean 428 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: fundamental football. Same thing really comes true with catching the football, 429 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: proper framing of the catch, seeing it all the way 430 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: in the proper tug. All those things you talk about 431 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 1: just come to life. They're always important, but now they're 432 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: just highlighted in those weather elements. Then for our standpoint 433 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: as a coach, we never want to just chalk up 434 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: a mistake and say, oh, well, it's going to happen 435 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: and kind of put our hand up. We're going to 436 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: always try to call the game or dictate the game 437 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: in a way where we stay out of situations where 438 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: we have to put guys in a spot where you 439 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: could have those drops, you could have those plays that 440 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: are a little more difficult to execute in the rain 441 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: and elements. You want to have enough in the game plan, 442 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: especially going into a game where you know it's raining, 443 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: where you can get the plays and say we can 444 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: execute these rain, shine, wind, hail, whatever. We feel good 445 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: about getting these done. Now. Credit to the guys we 446 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: go out there and practice with the wet ball and 447 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: do a bunch of different things to simulate the elements, 448 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: but it's a whole different beast do out there and 449 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: do it in the game, and I thought the guys 450 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: handled it at a high level. 451 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 5: You do a guy like two be put falling around 452 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 5: last week, make sure that you keep his confidence high. 453 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point about keeping the guy's confidence high. 454 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: We always, whether it's ball security, reads pass protection, we're 455 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: always a process oriented approach. So with that, we cannot 456 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: go too high too low on the results. 457 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 3: Right. 458 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: We know the process will drive the results, but we're 459 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: not going to live and die by those results because 460 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: it's the process, the process, the process for all the 461 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: guys that we control. So knowing that we just have 462 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: toot and just like everyone else, go right back to 463 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: the process. He's got thousands and thousands and thousands of 464 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,719 Speaker 1: reps of proper ball security, and we're going to continue 465 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: to practice those habits over and over and over and 466 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: over again. For the backs, the quarterbacks, the receivers, the 467 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: tight ends. Everyone's going to practice proper ball security every 468 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: single time they catch or touch a football. That's no 469 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: different for him we're going to go right back to 470 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: that process, and I got the confidence in him that 471 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: he'll go out there and continue to do what he's 472 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: done all season prior to that. 473 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 5: Advantages to deploy your tight ends in the run game. 474 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 5: I see, if you have these guys lead blocking, is 475 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 5: this something that you know fundamentally you had already in 476 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 5: your kind of d and as a play caller before 477 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 5: you got here. 478 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: I think the group we have is especially unique that 479 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if any of us on the offensive 480 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: staff have quite had the group that we have here 481 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,439 Speaker 1: where we really have four guys who. 482 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 3: Can do all those things you talk about. 483 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: So I think we all have experience with little bits 484 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: and pieces of guys being able to block on the edge, 485 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: coming back across the line, you know, inserting for blocks 486 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: as a lead blocker, like you say, there's so many 487 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: different blocks. Then they're around the edge going out there blocking. 488 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: DB's what's unique about this group is we have four 489 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: guys that can do all of those blocks. You see 490 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 1: Quintin Morris, you see Breton Strings, you see Johnny Mnt. 491 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: You see Hunter Long blocking defensive ends. Then you see 492 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: him blocking safeties out in space. Then you see him 493 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: blocking coming back and blocking defensive tackles. Then you see 494 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: him coming across and blocking a defensive end. To have 495 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: those guys that are kind of puzzle pieces that you 496 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: can mix and match, and then all of them are 497 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: able to make catches in the past game, run after 498 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: the catch. That versatility is really unique and it opens 499 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: up a ton in the run game first and foremost, 500 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: but then the play play action game, then the pass game, 501 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: quick game, even on third downs. Those guys are weapons 502 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: out there where we're trying to find different ways to 503 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: continue to say, how can we get these guys out 504 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: and routes to be you know, the first read or 505 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: primary because they're such a great matchup at times for 506 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: weeks because of the different positions got to live in 507 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: Yesterday leaves he thinks that. 508 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 5: Covid Land has done enough to be a starter. 509 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: I mean, how much of a weapon is that they 510 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 1: have a guy like that that I mean could basically 511 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: start at a couple of different positions where you need 512 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: being huge, huge In the NFL. We've probably or I 513 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 1: probably mentioned this a couple of times. You know you're 514 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: going to go through the whole year and probably not 515 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,719 Speaker 1: be able to start the same five guys for every 516 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: single snap for the whole year. So it's really important 517 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: that that room specifically to have a unit of guys 518 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 1: that you feel like can go out and start. It's 519 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: awesome to see those guys actually do it and to 520 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: have that confidence grow more and more that not only Cole, 521 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 1: but some of those other guys who have gotten opportunities 522 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: could truly go out there and start and play at 523 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: a high level at those positions because whether you like 524 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: it or not, at some point we're going to need it, 525 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: and we didn't need it. And he went out and 526 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: you know, kind of answered the bell as he went 527 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: out there in multiple positions in different weeks and did it. 528 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: So it's a testament their preparation, their work, and it's 529 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: a huge luxury for us as coaches to have that 530 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: depth in that room, and not only to have that depth, 531 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: to have that cohesion in the room where the guys 532 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: who can start, you know, you got eight guys, sometimes 533 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: seven guys, you can still feel good about starting five 534 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: no matter what the mixing matches. 535 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: That's awesome.
