1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: I won't ask you how you're doing. I'll just say hi, Pill,

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: welcome to the show. Best way of doing it all right?

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: So you you you ran through it at the end

4
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: of the game bad in all facets of the game.

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: There was nothing that worked out well, including the opening

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: kickoff in yesterday's game. So how do you sit here

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: and digest what happened yesterday? Especially when it happened in

8
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: week ten? We've seen this team have difficulty in games

9
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: like this earlier in the season. Usually by game ten

10
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: they're a lot more polished. How do you look at

11
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: this one? Yeah? I always have to go back to

12
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 1: work here and accomplish some things this week and then

13
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: get ready for the Jets. So we'll see that goes.

14
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: It's a different that it happens later in the season

15
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: than earlier in the season. To you, well, there are

16
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: always things that work on, and do you have an

17
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: opportunity to work on and which we do now, well,

18
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: that's all we do. But we do the same thing

19
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: no matter how yesterday is the game turned out. We have,

20
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: we got six ams left. We need to make the

21
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: most of those opportunities. You know, a lot it's been

22
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: made of the you know, the I guess the past distribution,

23
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: you know, like Josh Gordon getting twelve, you know Edelman. Um,

24
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: how does a guy get himself more opportunities? How does

25
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: a guy like Hogan or Dorset work his way into

26
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: being more of a part of the offense. Is it's

27
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: something that he does in practice? Is it something that

28
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: maybe they do during this this uh this bye week

29
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: where you maybe you reevaluate everybody and what they're what

30
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: they can help you out doing on offense. Yeah. I

31
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: think everybody just uh, whatever position they play, um needs

32
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: to god to their assignment, do it well and be

33
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: consistent at it, and uh, you know, usually those things

34
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: will even themselves out somewhere along the line. Has Dorset

35
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: or has Dorset earned more looks? I mean it seems

36
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: like every time he's out there, not a lot, but

37
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: he's coming up with a big catch. Yeah. We have

38
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: confidence in all our receivers. We really all five guys

39
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: have played and they've all been productive and a little

40
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: maybe different ways, a little bit with CP but with Doorset, Hogan,

41
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: Edelman and Gordon always got production from all those guys.

42
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: So I'm sure they'll each will have some games where

43
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: they're more and get more targets and then maybe some

44
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: other get less. So just see that goes a week

45
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: to week bill. So Gronk makes the trip and I'm

46
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: wondering is that was that a game time decision or

47
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: was he just making the trip knowing he wasn't going

48
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: to play? Uh? Well, I mean we took we took

49
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: him down there because um, you know, he was doing better,

50
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: but in the end he wasn't able to wasn't able

51
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: to go. So do you factor in that the following

52
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: weeks a bye week as far as health goes, saying

53
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 1: he could go, but we got a bye week, let's

54
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: get him one hundred percent? Does that factor in it all?

55
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: H No, not really. So if you see, if he

56
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: can play, he'd be out there no matter what. Well,

57
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: he wasn't able to play yesterday, so he made him active.

58
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: Trent Brown was out during the course of the week

59
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: with illness. Did you have something running rampant within your

60
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: locker room this week? Sickness? I think we had a

61
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: couple of guys dealing with a couple of things, and

62
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: a couple of guys last week. That's the time of year,

63
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: So we had a player, a couple of players, a

64
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: couple of coaches, two or three guys a week last

65
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: two or three weeks, because you were rotating a lot

66
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: in the guard spot and I saw Trent Brown coming out.

67
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: Was that Did that have something to do with the

68
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 1: fact that maybe he was a little winded because he

69
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: was on the sidelines all week. I don't think so,

70
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: because I think it was actually Gilmore. I think after

71
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: the game I had said he had dealing with some

72
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: kind of illness as well, that thig factor into his

73
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: game because he's he's been outstanding all year long, but

74
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: it seemed like that wasn't maybe his best yesterday. Yeah, well, look,

75
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: it's uh, we're in the middle of November, Harritts, a

76
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: week ten of the football season, so sure everybody's not

77
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: feeling perfect right now. You know. One of the things

78
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: that h I guess there's there's a lot of X

79
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: players on that team, obviously Bravel and just you know

80
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: the guys that are on there. Dean Lewis, I don't

81
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: know if you've heard any of this stuff. It always

82
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: surprises me when guys say certain things when they leave

83
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: an organization. He said. They asked him if it was personal.

84
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: He said, that's what happens. When you're cheap, you get

85
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: your ass kicked. I was just curious. Are you surprised

86
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: that he would, I guess take a cheap shot like that. Yeah.

87
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: I don't really see or hear the comments, so I'm

88
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: not sure the context of it. But yeah, you don't

89
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: have to ask him about that. I don't know any

90
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: of that stuff ever bug you. And knowing that, you

91
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: know what it's like. If you win a game, you

92
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 1: got bravado, you're feeling really good about yourself. And then

93
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: if you worked for another employer beforehand or whatever, it's

94
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: your opportunity that you can stick it to them. So

95
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 1: it's kind of common human nature maybe that people do that.

96
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: But does it ever bother you? And you look back

97
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: and said, yeah, I helped this kid out. I know

98
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: it's undrafted, gave him an opportunity, made him a lawful

99
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: lot of money. Does it ever bug you? Yeah? Well,

100
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: I mean, look, Dean has made plenty of positive comments

101
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: in the past. I'm not really sure about this one.

102
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 1: But look, whatever it is, it is, and right now

103
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: we need to worry about what we're doing and our

104
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: football team and that's really where our focus is. So um,

105
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: whatever else anybody says or doesn't says out our control,

106
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: and I'll think we're going now it's gonna affect us

107
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 1: too much one way or the other, whether it's good

108
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: or bad. Um, how's the rex burkhead doing? Saw that

109
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: he practiced last week? Um? Yeah, it's good to say

110
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: him out there. Umah, We'll take a day to day

111
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: and see how it goes. Is that a is there?

112
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: Do you have a deadline as far as when you

113
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: can declare whether or not he's going to be part

114
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: of the active roster or not three weeks after he

115
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: starts practicing. Okay, so this will be a week one

116
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: coming up on. It was Wednesday, So last week obviously

117
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: a big challenge with guy like Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, I

118
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 1: know you talked a lot about that contain you know,

119
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: the pass rush and containing a guy like Rogers. Marcus

120
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: Mariota did did you feel like you did a good

121
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: enough job against him? Did you feel like he did

122
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: a similar job or or not as good as maybe

123
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: you did the week before with Aaron Rodgers? H? Well,

124
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: Mariota got us on uh you know, on a run

125
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: or a running to catch the passing run. I think

126
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: he only ran once and for a couple of years

127
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: high Tiwer tackled him, but he uh no, you know

128
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: that really wasn't the yardy twice as big of a

129
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 1: problem as the running game? And um, the yardy say

130
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: completed throwing the ball? So, um that's in the end.

131
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: Who wasn't it? Just it wasn't good enough. We have

132
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: to play better team defense, team offense, and special teams

133
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: and coach better than anything else. Did you guys run

134
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: that that pass to Brady on that third down play?

135
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: And then the next time Tennessee gets the ball, Mike

136
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: runs the exact same played up to Mariota. Did you

137
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: did you feel like that was just the timing of it?

138
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: Did you did you chuckle at it? Did you feel

139
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: like it was a shot at you? Guys? Oh? Shot

140
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: at what? Just he ran the exact same play like

141
00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: minutes after he commented about it after. Yeah, Look, when

142
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: you're on defense, your job to stop the other team.

143
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: So that's that's what your job is. You don't control

144
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: the plays I call you mentioned special teams. Um, three

145
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: of their first six possessions they started on your side

146
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: of the field. Um, obviously never a good sign. A

147
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: little concerned about field position, and some of these on

148
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: special teams. Now again, Glenn, there wasn't really anything that

149
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: was good enough yesterday, so we're all we're all part

150
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: of it. I think that this morning, the guys asked Brady, Okay,

151
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: if is there not as there as silver lining is

152
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: there's is there anything positive you can take from it?

153
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: And Brady said, didn't throw No no turnovers. I mean

154
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: three games in a run, three games in a row,

155
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: no turnovers, So I guess that's something. Yeah, I mean,

156
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,119
Speaker 1: you know, individually, there were some there were positive plays

157
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: and positive things within some plays, but in the end,

158
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: as a team, our performance wasn't where we want it

159
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: to be where it needs to be. So well, that's

160
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: the most important thing. We'll have to try to find

161
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: a way to improve that. What goes into decision of

162
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: pulling Brady seven and a half minutes Usually guys are

163
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: blowing teams out, We always wonder when you're gonna pull

164
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: him or not. But in this case, here he comes out.

165
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: I believe seven and a half minutes ago. What goes

166
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: into that decision? I felt it was the best thing

167
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: to do at that point. There were a couple of

168
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: the guys have found out that category too, the amount

169
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: of pressure they're putting on him, or the score itself.

170
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: Now the score, yeah, the score as far as just

171
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: and I know this time of year everybody's dealing with something.

172
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: But based on you know what we saw yesterday, a

173
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: lot of guys getting hurt or sick could just buy week,

174
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: not come at a better time, just for everything, regrouping, recalibrating,

175
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 1: getting guys healthy. Yeah, I don't know, Christian. Whenever they come,

176
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 1: they come, So when they schedule them, we show them,

177
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: play them, and when they don't, we don't. So I

178
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: don't really worry about that. Whatever the schedule is, it is,

179
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: and we try to do the best we can time

180
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: with the time allocation that we have. When you look

181
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: at a game like that, how much do you look

182
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 1: at it and come out of it and say, all right,

183
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: we just didn't have the right game plan or they

184
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: had a better game plan than we did versus we've

185
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: got some weaknesses, some holes right now that other teams

186
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: are going to start to exploit in the upcoming weeks.

187
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: I think I said after the game that they we

188
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: were out coached, we were out played. They beat us

189
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,839
Speaker 1: in all three phases of the game. We got to

190
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: do a better job of coaching, playing, executing, and everything.

191
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: So that just it just wasn't a good day for

192
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: us yesterday. I don't know any other way to put it. Well,

193
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: it's as opposed to one day you just didn't get

194
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: the job done and they did. Versus issues that you

195
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: see going forward here, Well, they hit us on some

196
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: scheme things that we're a problem that from a coaching standpoint,

197
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: we need to adjuster get fixed. The players weren't well

198
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: enough prepared for. Are the things that we were prepared for,

199
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: we just didn't do them well enough in all three

200
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: phases of the game. So I think everybody looks at

201
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: that game, I think about the same way that we

202
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: all feel like we came up short and we all

203
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: need to do better. You know, Tom and the past

204
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: has talked about how he's seen so much from different defenses.

205
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: He's seen, you know, he can pick things up. I

206
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 1: think it was I have the answers to the test,

207
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: I think was the quote he had. But the last

208
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: five weeks, compared to the first five weeks, we've seen

209
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: numbers with him versus the blitz that we haven't seen

210
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: ever in his career. Usually tortures him. The last five

211
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: it's been a struggle. Is that not picking up the

212
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: blitz in certain areas or is that other issues as

213
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: far as maybe personnel, wide receivers, offensive line communication. What

214
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: are the reasons why this offense has been struggling in

215
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: your eyes lately about with the blitz. Yeah, it always

216
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 1: comes down to team execution, and so we just have

217
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: to do a better job of that. I mean, there

218
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,839
Speaker 1: hasn't met a lot of pressure on the quarterback this year.

219
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: We were one of the least sect team in the league.

220
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: Yesterday was there were times when there was pressure. There

221
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: are times on there wasn't. But the bottom line is,

222
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: well there is there isn't pressure. The overall passing game

223
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: has to execute on time in a smooth fashion, and

224
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: that includes everybody. It's the protection, it's the receivers, it's

225
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: the distribution of the route, it's the quarterback, it's the

226
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: play and the coverage that we get it against. All

227
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: those things are related. Again, I think we all have

228
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: to do a better job than that. Well, over the years,

229
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: we've already talked. We've always talked about Tom Brady as

230
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: a guy who if you're gonna go blitz him. He's

231
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: just going to tear you apart. Christian came up with

232
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: a stat this past week, and I don't know how

233
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 1: valid it is in which Brady apparently is the worst

234
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: against the blitz this year now Michael bart is based

235
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: on his passer rading. Okay, five or more rushing. Michael

236
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: Lombardi disputed it. Your buddy, Michael Lombardi disputed it on

237
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: Friday basically saying he had different numbers and he threw

238
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 1: the numbers out there. So what is your eyes from

239
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: the sidelines tell you? Are you more susceptible to the

240
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: blitz right now your offense then you've been in past years. Again,

241
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: it's so much of those plays or depending on what

242
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: the what the play is that's matched up against it. So,

243
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: if you have five guys in protection, six is too many.

244
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: If you have six guys in protection, seven's too many.

245
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 1: If you have seven guys in protection, eats too many.

246
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: So sometimes it just depends on what you happen to

247
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 1: have called and what they what they have and have called.

248
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: They were six man rush and you pick it up

249
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: because you have six blockers, then that's fine. If you

250
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 1: have five man rush, then you're gonna have to throw

251
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: the ball before the six guy gets there, and that's

252
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: building into the pattern or build into the play and

253
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: vice versas. So it's um, I think really the places

254
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: or really have to be analyzed individually, which they are,

255
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: and we have to handle blitz on every play. We

256
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: covered on every place. So we just have to do

257
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: a good job of trying to be in good plays

258
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: that handle it. But also when we do get it,

259
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: which is you can't always predict that, then being able

260
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: to execute whatever the proper part of the play is

261
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 1: to a little the extra rusher. You know, I've been um.

262
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: You know, get towards November Thanksgiving, you know, your record

263
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: and your playoff opportunities and your seating comes to comes

264
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: a little bit more into focus. And I've had coaches

265
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: that have made a point of putting up the record

266
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: showing guys, Okay, this is what we're playing for. This

267
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: is where Kansas City is, this is where Pittsburgh is.

268
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 1: You know, this is what you guys are playing for.

269
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: You know, don't take these games for granted. And for

270
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: the life of me, I'm sitting there going I don't

271
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: remember what Bill did. I'm assuming you probably never brought

272
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: it up. Period, right, because it's one only the next

273
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: game is the most important. But our guys, I mean

274
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: you're somewhat maybe just aware of the situation that they're

275
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: in as far as you know, just watching what Kansas

276
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: City is doing and you know, trying to make sure

277
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: you have home home field advantage. Is do you guys

278
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: mention that at all or is it just still status quo? Well,

279
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: there's nothing we can do about games after the Jets game.

280
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: I mean, we're not going to prepare for those games.

281
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: We're not going to practice for them, We're not gonna

282
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: do anything about them. We're not going to do anything

283
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: about the games we've already been played. There's only one

284
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: game we're really focused on, and that's a Jets game.

285
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: So we'll do the best we can in that one

286
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 1: and then worry about next week. Next week. When you

287
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: have a guy like Sony Michelle coming back and I

288
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: saw I think it's sixteen or seventeen snaps, is that

289
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: because of the way the game was going or was

290
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: that more of I don't do you have guys on

291
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: pitchcounts to say, oh, snap counts, I would say coming

292
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: back from injury. Yeah, not usually Usually it's usually It's

293
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: based on the situation of the game, and we generally

294
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: have an idea of about how much we think we're

295
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: going to be in a certain personnel group, but never exactly,

296
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: and that can vary during the game, of course, in

297
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: game conditions and as the game unfold. So obviously, yesterday

298
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: we fall behind. We're in a lot of passing groupings

299
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: and passing sets and so forth. So I think he

300
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: was capable of playing more than he did, but the

301
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: game situation dictated some of those personnel groups and some

302
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: of the plays. All right, well, your favorite part of

303
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: the show. Coach things up with our drive of the week.

304
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: Not enough drive? So the week this well, I think

305
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: I know which one he's gonna say. You had You

306
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: had a unicorn out there score touchdown, James Devlin fullback

307
