1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: All right, honey, happy Friday. That's a business great good Okay.

2
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: Great ability to run, He's kept some plays alive and

3
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: move the chains. How much has that been, Um, I

4
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 1: don't want to say a revelation, but is that something

5
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: that has grown since he's been here or is it

6
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: something that was always said? Think he's got a pretty

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: good feel for that. A lot of that's just really

8
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: feel and decision. I just sign its athletic ability too,

9
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: but you know, a lot of it's just I'm seeing

10
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: it to the right time. You know, I'm doing a

11
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: good job of that. He didn't run very often, but

12
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: when he did, like last year against us, you know,

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: he got us on a third and four or whatever

14
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: it was. So yeah, Manning, same thing. Didn't run very often,

15
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: but he catches it at the right time. Those guys

16
00:00:54,920 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: can hur are you. So that's the guys that are

17
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: really good runs, you know, about the guys that aren't.

18
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: Decisions and recognition of the situation sort of in the

19
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 1: middle of those categories. Still in terms of I feel

20
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: like your runs fairly well, like he was more left

21
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: sub five in the forty Yeah, yeah, I mean again,

22
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: there's varying degrees of all that size, speed, athleticism, quickness,

23
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: running skill. A lot of shades are great in there.

24
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: I don't know it could be a candidate for Silia's question,

25
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: but in watching our people do elements of the wishbone,

26
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: they're thinking like the pre impost snap decision making a

27
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: quarterback right at the line of scrimmers to the ball

28
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: in his hands in terms of three options, that's exactly

29
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: what it is. Sometimes it's two, sometimes it's three. Right,

30
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: So in the wishbone, you had the fullback, a quarterback,

31
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: the pitch. Now you have the dive the quarterback, and

32
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: instead of the pitch, it's some type of pass pattern

33
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: to a guy in the flat or a bubble screen

34
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: or that type of thing. Sometimes it's run or throw,

35
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: but then there are times when it's run. Quarterback reads

36
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: the end as part of the run and then either

37
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: he runs or he throws. So there is a dual

38
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: element to the RPOs. And sometimes there's you know, really

39
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: a three way decision. And so teams are doing the

40
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: inside outside where they're doing the suite to one side

41
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: and RPO or keep or whatever counterplay back to the

42
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: other side. And then you know teams like Baltimore, you

43
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: know we did with a camp two where you have

44
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: the outside play and the quarterback keeps it inside you

45
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: know as an outside inside and said inside outside just

46
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: reverse that or or who your RPO and or Europe

47
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: on the end or your RPO on the three technique.

48
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: So there's multiple versions of that, you know, and then

49
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: you know teams that are trying to another element of

50
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: that in the RPO is the hidden behind the coverage, right,

51
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: So you can RPO it inside outside or the blocker,

52
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: or you can run a play and then have somebody

53
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: coming in behind them, so if the linebacker comes up,

54
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: you throw it to the guy behind them, If the

55
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,839
Speaker 1: linebacker drops off, you hand it off. That kind of thing.

56
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: So there's there's multiple multiple varieties of that UM and

57
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: so the Colts have run really they shown all of it.

58
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: I mean it was only one week, but they did

59
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: it all against UM Washington. They had the three option

60
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: plays and they had multiple two option plays. You know,

61
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: the player scored on was the was the sweep right,

62
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: But then they also had the shovel pass. So had

63
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: the defense the defense widened, then they would have shoveled

64
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: it inside to the tight end, you know, which we

65
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: saw that from Pittsburgh that they did similar thing multiple times.

66
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: So so it doesn't only involve the quarterback running right,

67
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: So he either gives it to the sweep or he

68
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: catches it into the shovel guy. So yeah, two and

69
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: three options. How much growth have you seen from Jonathan

70
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: Jones now that he's as a leader, now that he's

71
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: grown into one of the longest tenured guys in the

72
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: secondary on the team. Yeah, John's always been He's been great.

73
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: It's really been. You know, He's started off in the

74
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: kicking game, worked his way into roles defensively, and now

75
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: it's on the field, you know, a lot defensively, But

76
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: I mean it's been since pretty early, you know, maybe

77
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: his third year. He always had leadership in the kicking game,

78
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: you know, and then defensively that's kind of grown as

79
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: his as his playtime, as his role has grown. But yeah,

80
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: he's great. It's tough, well repaired, smart kid, motile positions

81
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: inside and outside. It's also played safety for us, played

82
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 1: in every except the field goal team. He has been

83
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: on every special team unit. Um, big for a field

84
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 1: goal rush, good rusher off the edge. So yeah, his

85
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: playing strength for his size is good, speeds, very good instincts, quickness,

86
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: good tackler, and a good player and really good and

87
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: off the field of preparation communication. And Miles has done

88
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: a good job inside there too, which is that's helped

89
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: allow John to play more on the perimeter, you know,

90
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: with the emergence of Miles as an inside player. But

91
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: I know you've got a few former players on your

92
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: staff right now. Is there anyone in the current roster

93
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: that kind of jumps out to you as a future coach? Yeah?

94
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, a lot of that's what

95
00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: the player wants to do, so and honestly, most of

96
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: our players right now I probably think about playing sure

97
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: and then yeah, when the time comes, then you know

98
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: see where that where those paths take some of those

99
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: our family related, location, lifestyle and so forth. So so yeah,

100
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: so I don't know. It's a good question. On Monday,

101
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: Matthew Slater was talking about your communication skills as being

102
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: one of your major strengths and the ability to communicate

103
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: with the different generations of players as you've obviously gone

104
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: through your career. What do you see as being kind

105
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: of the key to changing and meeting players you know

106
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: where they are while maintaining a kind of the consistency

107
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: that we see from you on a daily basis. Yeah,

108
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a flattering comment, but look, I

109
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: just try to help the players and team however I

110
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: can't so whatever that is, that's my job. So I

111
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: try to do so, whether it's a technique thing, whether

112
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: it's a awareness thing, whether it's a situational thing, whether

113
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: it's some type of training or professional football lifestyle or

114
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it could be a I mean, yeah,

115
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: I have seen a lot of different examples of all

116
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: different aspects of professional football, coach a lot of different players, positions, situations,

117
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: you know, start a career, mid career, and career injuries.

118
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: It's you know, I mean, it's not not too many

119
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: that I haven't seen. So if I can help a player,

120
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: then I'll try to help them. Are the key differences, sorry,

121
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: the key differences now? And how you coach this generation

122
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: of players versus previous generations of players? Yeah, what do

123
00:07:54,840 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: you think? It's no different than society and we just

124
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: have you know, that slice of those players on the

125
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: football team. So, but in the end, the most important

126
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: thing is the importance of football and the commitment to football.

127
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: You're in the NFL and you want to be a

128
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: good football player and you want a football career, and

129
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: that's a high priority for you. Then and a lot

130
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: of the football things come to the front. Different personalities,

131
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: different lifestyles, different things going on socially with kids at

132
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: age now then from ten, twenty thirty, whatever, how many

133
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: years ago. But once you get the football, there's a

134
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: lot of football that's a lot of it's the same.

135
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: That's changed too, but a lot of it's the same.

136
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: But again, my jobs is to try to help them,

137
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: help the players, help the team anyway I can with it.

138
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: It's a coach, a player, group of players, and whatever

139
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: aspect of that is. If I can help them, then

140
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: I try to help. It's good for the team. You see,

141
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: technology and full and just chased the change the dynamic

142
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: in the locker rooms or meetings order be with you know,

143
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: the way people interact or of course ten spans. Yeah,

144
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: it's a little different than what we deal with outside

145
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: of football, that part of it. Yeah, it's totally different.

146
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: We're all all different there, all right, all right, thank you,

147
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: Thanks See Sunday
