1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Channel with jolt. It's been doing a lot of years. 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: What makes this guy so special when you look at NFL, Well, 3 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: he's very athletic. I'd say two things. He's very athletic, 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: and he's got a high motor UM and maybe to 5 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: add to add to add a third thing is his size. 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: You know, he's got long reach, Um, he can bend, 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 1: he can accelerate, he can change directions, his motor is 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: always running UM. And then you throw in his experience 9 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: and in instinctiveness. You know, he's really good. I mean 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: he's he's having a good year and I think he's 11 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: he's one of the top players in the league. Youson 12 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: changed their second year? How does it? Yeah, I mean 13 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 1: another great player. I mean he's UM's extremely talented, he's 14 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: got great football awareness. Um. You have to be very 15 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: very careful when you're throwing the ball in his direction 16 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: for a lot of reasons. You know, he's UM and 17 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: he plays with a lot of confidence as you guys, 18 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: as we've all you know, throughout his career. So again, 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: you know we've got to be very very careful throwing 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,639 Speaker 1: the ball that way. Daniel, what are the next steps 21 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: you're looking for for him? Obviously you don't want to. 22 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: You're not expecting a fully developed quarterback in the first second, 23 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: or third start or even the fifth really, but where 24 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: what are his next steps to kind of take that 25 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: next step? Well, you know, we want to win and 26 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: we we we want him to lead us to win. Um. 27 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: But as with any young quarterback, UM, you know, just 28 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 1: the continued progress of making good decisions um consistently uh 29 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: and not making you know, the bad ones. You're gonna 30 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: make mistakes. Um, there's gonna be things every week that um, 31 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: you wish you could do a little bit better. You 32 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: just don't want the ones that that are that can 33 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, God, I wish I didn't do that And 34 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: it really didn't have anything to do with the defense. 35 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: You know those types of things. So uh um but 36 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: uh and then along those lines, um, you know the 37 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: continued m timing, increase in timing better timing and making 38 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: decisions on staying with number one or getting off number one, 39 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: things like that. You kind of referenced the unforced errors 40 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: type thing there. How much of a hurdle is that 41 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: for a young quarterback um to kind of give past 42 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: those unforced errors and kind of get that out of 43 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 1: his head to not forcing things. Well, I think it's 44 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: you know, not just for young quarterback, it's really for 45 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: you know, you watch around the league and even though 46 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: some of the best quarterbacks around the league are making 47 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: you know, we're trying to do things maybe they shouldn't do, 48 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: trying to do too much. And that's the beauty of 49 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: the position. It's one of the you know, most unique 50 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: positions in all of sports. Um, because you've gotta make split, 51 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: split second decisions with guys, you know, trying to take 52 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: your head off, so to speak, um and uh, and 53 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: you want to be on time otherwise you're gonna be 54 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 1: late against good corners that are gonna, you know, in 55 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: set the ball. So I think the biggest thing is 56 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: if you do make one, and then you gotta have 57 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: a short memory move on. Um. But then through experience, 58 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: just say, hey, if I'm in a situation again it's 59 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: first down, I don't need to hold on the all, 60 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: just throw it away. It's okay to throw the ball away. 61 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: Those are the things that that come to mind. His 62 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 1: first his first action for you guys, I remember the 63 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: first play Pat talked about he forgot to motion the 64 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: tight end over those kind of things for a wookie quarterback, 65 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: you can see in practice, you know, next play comes 66 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: up and make some stake. You know, you correct the 67 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: mistake and move on. Is it is it more tangible 68 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: with the decision making that you almost have to just 69 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: see week to week in games and how he grows 70 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: from those situations. Um, you can really coach up. Yeah. 71 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: I think sometimes you have to do that because sometimes 72 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: and this is just with whatever any quarterback, you know 73 00:03:53,800 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: you'll see things in practice and um uh and you 74 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: know we're there. Quarterbacks are making good decisions and all 75 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden it's the same exact situation in the 76 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: game and then they'll maybe you know, do something that 77 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: they didn't do in practice. So um, those are the 78 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: things that uh, you know you just gotta you'd love to, 79 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: you know, simulate as much as you could for for 80 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: every position, but especially for the quarterbacks. The game like conditions. 81 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: You know how fast you got to get it out 82 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,919 Speaker 1: and you know it's easy here when you know the 83 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: line that no one's gonna sack here or hit you here, 84 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: and you can kind of sometimes hang on the ball 85 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: and um, but all of a sudden the game you 86 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: gotta make that decision or um, you know whether not 87 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: to throw it away or or just make a better decision. 88 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: So that does come with experience. Um. And but you 89 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: just kind of coached the heck out of it and 90 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: you don't I think that's probably the biggest thing is 91 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: you don't generalize. You know, hey, if there's a game 92 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: that we could have played better, um, and then don't 93 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: just say, well, you know, wo how and this is why. Specifically, 94 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: then if you get in a situation again, let's do 95 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: it this way. The entries that you guys have to 96 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: go through, still going through with Ingram, Shepherd, Barkley, all 97 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: missing time, tape, missing time at the beginning of the 98 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: year kind of impacted what you've wanted to do on 99 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: offense or maybe how do you have to change your 100 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: play calling. I think that you know that it's part 101 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: of the game, and um, we talked about it a 102 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: lot and in coach Hermer talks about it, and you know, 103 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: you've actually got a plan for that. So ideally everybody 104 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: stays healthy and you get you get to everybody, Um, 105 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: you're working in sync together through a lot of reps together. 106 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: But it does it just doesn't happen. So we really 107 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: spend almost as much time making sure that guys that, um, 108 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: we know we're going to be called upon to step 109 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,359 Speaker 1: up or getting that those same reps physically or mentally. So, UM, 110 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: you know, is it a factor. I'd hate to say 111 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: yes because then it sounds like it's an excuse. But um, 112 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: well we will say this. You know, we welcome those 113 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: guys back when they come back down near the bottom 114 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: of the league. Defensively, what has hurt them? What has 115 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: hurt them? Well, I mean, first of all, you can 116 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: kind of throw that out the window. I think every 117 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: every week in the NFL, it doesn't matter. You know, 118 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: you can throw stats out the window. Um, you can 119 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: throw you know, uh, when you look at your your 120 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: schedule at the start of the season, you can throw 121 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: that out. Um. I think that, Um, you know, they're 122 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: they're they're young on defense and they're still learning. Everybody's 123 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: still learning the system. But you know they made They 124 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: were up last week against a really good offense and 125 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: kept him down until the end against Atlanta, and they've 126 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: been in some really good games. So I would you know, 127 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: we gotta worry about ourselves, but um, you know, uh, 128 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: and that's no matter who we play, and joy that 129 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: Barkley's had I know it looks pretty good so far, 130 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: and said he's doing well this week. Is there a 131 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: lot of nervousness, you think early in the game, trying 132 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: to see like, oh, what does he have? Is he 133 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: going to be fully recover? What is he going to 134 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: be able to give us what he's supposed to give us? 135 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: Do you think about that much? No, I don't think so. 136 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: I think if if he's ready to play, I don't. 137 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: I think we just kind of, you know, treat it 138 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: like he's he's ready to go, and and uh, you know, 139 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: I think coach Sjohnson are running back. Coach he'll he'll 140 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: monitor that as well. Um, but you know, otherwise we 141 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't even you know, if we had any hesitation at all, 142 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: we wouldn't even have nothing if that were the case,
