Yeah, how about you? Who'd you come 5 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: up in? I'm gonna be a Draco malfoy Harry Potter character? Nice? Nice? 6 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 1: I was, Bill Belichick. I stole the whole neighborhood and 7 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: feel love it great? All right? How we doing it 8 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: here today? Good questions? Bill nikkiel Harry? How is he 9 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: responded to the workfloading practice? It works hard. He just 10 00:00:53,800 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: worked hard at everything. Special teams roll offense, so you know, 11 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: see how it goes here for the weekend. You envision 12 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: activating him for the game. We'll see Bill, with all 13 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: that turnover that you guys have had a receiver, how 14 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: do you think Tom is playing? And how do you 15 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: think he's handled? But there and I guess the additions 16 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: I've tied end too. Uh. I mean, look, I think 17 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: Tom's done a lot of good things. There's always going 18 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: for improving for all of us. So I know he's 19 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: working hard to do the best he can to prepare 20 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: and have a good week. Um, like everybody else's Is 21 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: he doing a good job working with with those guys? 22 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: I know, you know in some cases he has had 23 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: that long to bring him up to speed, but he 24 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: always does that that Ky do just defensively. All when 25 00:01:54,680 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: you know that you're going to fancy kicker like Justin Tucker, Uh, 26 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: well you take it into consideration. Yeah, definitely, Yeah, you 27 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: have to take it into consideration. So playing a little 28 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: shorter field than you are normally, yep, do you consider 29 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: him best you're going for right now? He best kicker 30 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: in history of the league, right, Yeah. You know, we 31 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: were fortunate to block one against him the last time 32 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: we played them, but it's not easy. So he's a 33 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: good player, good kickoff um, you know, good athlete, good 34 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: place kicker and a good kickoff man. How we are 35 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: is Maky's bronze acceleration in verse. He's fast and he 36 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 1: can really track the ball too. Um, you know, speed's good. Um, 37 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: you know he's seen fast guys before, he's one of them. 38 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: But I'd say his ability to track the balls is 39 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: very good. So that really makes him Let's say that's 40 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: the difference between the good and the great deep receivers 41 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: is not just speed, but the ability to track and 42 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: catch and play the ball. It's you know, some unusual 43 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: angles and so forth. So he's done a good job 44 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: of that. Lamar is a very good deep ball thrower. 45 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 1: He really has a nice touch on those throws. He's made, 46 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: made a lot of good throws forty fifty yards downfield. 47 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: Just dropped the ball right on a dime so and 48 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: Brown tracks it extremely well. So yeah, that's a big 49 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: you know, they do that very well. Bill. You guys 50 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: finally released Josh Gordon yesterday. I remember initially he said 51 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: it's a discussion for another time. It's curious what went 52 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: into the decision to have partways with him. Were released 53 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: him because he was healthy, past physical What was it? 54 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: What was it like just having it here last year 55 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: and this year? What was your overall experience like, Yeah, 56 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: it's all in the past. When looking to Baltimore at 57 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: this point and a lot of guys that have been 58 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: here in the last year and a half, How valuable 59 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: is it to have guys like Slater in Bethel and 60 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: Editor on the team that contribute mostly just a few 61 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: for you guys. Yeah, Well, it's always good to have 62 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: a good core group a specialists, and then you know, 63 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: core special team players, and that's not enough. See, you 64 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: need to you should supplement that with some other either 65 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: handful of guys or maybe it's a number of players 66 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: that have one maybe the play on one or two 67 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: possibly two teams to you know, fill it out. But yeah, 68 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: you always want to have a few core guys to 69 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: do that. We've been very fortunate to have a very 70 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: good group through the years and this year, you know, 71 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: Brandon Bolden's does a great job. You know, he's certainly 72 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: one of our leaders in that category as well. Bill, 73 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: When you talked a little bit about Brown and his speed, 74 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: there's similar views with Tyreek Killed and just that special 75 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: kind of speed. Or are they that's the only thing 76 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: they have in common in autolatz and they're both fast, 77 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: And do they do more than just deep stuff with 78 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: with Brown? Do they across the field as well? Yeah? 79 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: They were in there. They're passing gain their RPOs um. 80 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: That's certainly. I mean they get a chance to hit 81 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: him in the deep part of the field and post 82 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: routes go routes inside fades um shorter and obviously people 83 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: play off them. So underneath routes and hitches and science 84 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: and things like that are hard to cover because people 85 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 1: give him space. How was Isaiah why look in his 86 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: first week back at practised back out there? Yeah? Good, 87 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: my increase. So I know you're focusing more on ravens 88 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: than horses. I was curious if you knew that there 89 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: was a horse named in your honor running in the 90 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: Reader's Cup Juveniles today. Yeah, seven other three Right, you're 91 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: a horse. Well, a little interest in that one. Yeah. 92 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: What do you think of the horse? It runs fast? 93 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: Do you like the name? Uh? Yeah, yeah, I'm good 94 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 1: on that. You mentioned this morning on another radio interview 95 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: that you broke out some Carl Banks film to help 96 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: teach your guys how they defend or run play. That's 97 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: something you do a lot, to break out a whole 98 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 1: film from you know, the eighties or whatever nineties that 99 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: can still help you today. I'll do anything I can 100 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: to help our football team, whatever that is or something 101 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: that I think can help us then, because you know, 102 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: my job, my responsibility to coach our players the best 103 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: I can. Is that something that happens often. I mean, 104 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: it teams pretty rare that the team could have that 105 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: much you know, knowledge, the film library, things of that nature. 106 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if you talked to Rabel and Pruski, 107 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: they would tell you that it happened too often. So 108 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: it seems like the reasons are kind of unique in 109 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: that they run out of a pistol. Um just like 110 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: with having Lamar Jackson the quarterback, what's kind of what 111 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: makes that maybe some of the benefits of that, And 112 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: then from defensive standpoint, like, how does that affect how 113 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: you prepare for that? Oh? Well, I think the the 114 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: advantage of the pistol is that you can go either way. 115 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: Once the back off sets, you're limited in the number 116 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: of plays that you can run de VOTs. You know, 117 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: you have certain plays to decide he's on, and then 118 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: you have certain plays away from him. You can kind 119 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: of make some of those work by you know, running 120 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: them back to the middle and then back to the 121 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: same side. But it's I don't know if it's quite 122 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: the same. People don't do a lot of it. When 123 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: he's in the pistol. You know, both sides are the 124 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: point of attack, So I think that's the advantage to it. 125 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: You know, obviously from that position, you know, the backs 126 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: as further ago get involved in the passing game and 127 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: does when his offset Baltimore does both. They put him 128 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: behind the quarterback most of the time in the pistol formation, 129 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: but he's offset a decent amount of the time too. 130 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: It's not like he's never offset. So, um, it's kind 131 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: of the same same deal with the running shoot and 132 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: the run and shoot the quarterbackers under center. But it 133 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: was the same same idea, so that back could get 134 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: to either side and attack either side. It wasn't a 135 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: big part of the passing game in that offense for 136 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: the reasons I just articulated. So that's but I think 137 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: that's one of the things they get out of it 138 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: a lot as it they kind attack both sides. They 139 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: attack one side as sesil it is the other side 140 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: es no was Henry. How do you think, Sonny, Sonny 141 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: Michelle's vision is progressing. I think it's improved a lot. Yeah, 142 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: there's improved a lot. Can you kind of share how 143 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: how that shows up in the game. The game, it's 144 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: more play to play, look at the look at the 145 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: play and yeah, we've gone over the reads. We've gone 146 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: over um you know, how he read it? How he 147 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: you know? Again, you want to try to understand what 148 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: what a player sees, and there's a lot to see 149 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: some guys focus more on one thing than another. Um, 150 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 1: But you know, we've talked to him a lot about 151 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: you know, what his keys are, what his reads are, 152 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: what the progression of the reds are as. You don't 153 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: just read one guy. After you get past that guy 154 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: or get you know, after you deal with that particular 155 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: block or that particular defender than you, there's somebody else 156 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: to deal with. So um, you know, we've talked a 157 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: lot about that, and I think he's I think he's 158 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: improved a lot. But you know, each plays a little 159 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: bit different and each keys a little bit different, so 160 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: you know, it's no different than a pass play. Each 161 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: pass plays. Guys don't know the same route on every play, 162 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: so the progression is different, the spacing is different, and 163 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:35,599 Speaker 1: so forth. So but yeah, no, I think he's I 164 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: think he's done a good job improving on that. He's 165 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: worked really hard at it, and I think the results 166 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: are have been very possitive. Kind.
