1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: We'll start with Nico Marley. Hey, Brian, I want to

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: first of all, how's it going. How's it going? Good

3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: to see. I want to ask about the the sort

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: of evolution of the safety position in general, because you know,

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: for such a long time, the terms free safety and

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: strong safety, those are like the terms, and when I

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: was think of that, I always think of the archetype

8
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: of like a Eugene Wilson free safety, Rodney Harrison strong safety.

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: For me, in my head, that was like the archetype

10
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 1: for a long time. But obviously that's just changed a lot,

11
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: change a lot. Now how much do those archetypes still

12
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: apply and how much has it evolved from those days?

13
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: Like what's the safety position like these days? Yeah, I

14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: also grew up with eug and Wilson Rodney Harrison, so

15
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: I know what you mean. But I'd say that's a

16
00:00:53,200 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: bit of a system question as well, where um, you know,

17
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: sometimes the players can determine how that's handled, you know,

18
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: when you have you know, we we have a lot

19
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: of good players at the position and like to move

20
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: them around because they all have, you know, high quality

21
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: skill set at doing a number of different things, and

22
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: so that's an advantage for the defense when the offense

23
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: can't count on someone being in one place all the

24
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: time or whatever. So um, when you know, obviously we

25
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 1: have a guy like Devin who's been in the deep

26
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 1: part of the field for a lot of his career

27
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: and he's excellent at it, so it's hard to say, yeah,

28
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: let's take him out of the middle of the field

29
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: and put someone else back there. But it's also great

30
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: because he's he's you know, good a player at doing

31
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: other things as well, and we have other players who

32
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: are good at playing in deep part of the field.

33
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: So that's part of it. And then I think part

34
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: of it is this the defensive system in general. You know,

35
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: when some teams play they're too safety, Like for some

36
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: teams they play a lot of too high shell, a

37
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: lot of cover four a lot, so they play them

38
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: pretty similarly all the time. So it doesn't really matter

39
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: what you want to call them strong or free or whatever,

40
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: they a lot of times do a similar job. Or

41
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: you know, if a team plays a lot of man

42
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: coverage and a lot down safety, then maybe one one

43
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: safety is gonna be bigger who's down and the other

44
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: one's deep all the time. Then you know, then it

45
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: looks like the Eugene Wilson and Ronnie Harrison. Well, so

46
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: say it's a little bit of the system, the play

47
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: calls and the players think at all factors on, but

48
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: you can be successful doing it. Yeah, any number of

49
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: way was awesome. Thank you. Thanks. Next question Bob Socie

50
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: Fallow by Chris Ryan. Thanks Stacy. Good morning, Brian. How

51
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: are you? I want to ask about the Jets two

52
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: position groups, running back and tight end. I'll start with

53
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: James Robinson at the running back spot along with Carter.

54
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 1: Very productive game for them two weeks ago against the Bills.

55
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: What did you see, if anything that was different about

56
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: the usage of Robinson in particular, I know he had

57
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: just joined them before your first game. Yeah. I think

58
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: they they obviously were trying to figure out the way

59
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: to use the backs once Bruce went out, and they've

60
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: had productive and successful backs, you know, not only this

61
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: year taking Bruce out of it, and also years passed.

62
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: So I think they had no trouble even though they

63
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: lost a really good player putting these other players in that,

64
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: you know, it's the same run scheme and they're they

65
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: have good runners. Both of them are really good runners.

66
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson's another good back and they you know, roll

67
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: them through there and they can all be useful. Um.

68
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: And they showed that. We suppose in your thoughts on

69
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: Im Conklin having seen him in person, you know, in

70
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: that first meeting, and then how he potentially in his

71
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: zoomah could be you know, very productive players in their

72
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 1: offense that they've been in spots. But it seems like

73
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: those are two guys that you have had some success.

74
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: There are very productive players. Um seeing um, seeing Conflin

75
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: in person, I was kind of struck by how much

76
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: bigger he was than I expected, I guess. Um, but

77
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: he's you know, they're good. Not that you don't see

78
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: him on films, just you know sometimes when we see

79
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: a gun in person, looks a little different. Um, But

80
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: they're yeah, both good players, good sound um. Fun of

81
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: all football players who are productive you know, run game

82
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 1: and pass game. Um, you know, they're one of the

83
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: things that makes us such a great chan on to

84
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: us long with the facts like you mentioned, and then

85
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: we had a whole whole nother cannon worms with their

86
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: receivers and quarterback. So um, there's problem solve over the place.

87
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 1: Thanks Brian, thank you, Thanks Christian, Chris Ryan, followed by

88
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: Karen greeting, Hey, Brian, how are you good? Good? I

89
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you at about Dev And obviously he

90
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: is such an incredibly valuable player for the team in

91
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: many different ways. But how do you see his his

92
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: productivity at thirty five? Is he as good as he

93
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 1: ever been? Is he able to offset maybe some depletion

94
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 1: of skill in certain areas with intellect? Like how do

95
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: you how do you see where Dev is at? I

96
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: see him, you know, as a very productive player for us,

97
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: and I've not seen any any drop off recently. He's

98
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 1: been playing at a high level. He's been you know,

99
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: his speed is good, he's tackling well, um, his coworge

100
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: is good, and he's you know, he just continues to

101
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: work on his craft. Um. And whether you want to

102
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: frame that as him you know, working to get better,

103
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: working to be at the same level, whatever, it's all

104
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: kind of the same to me. He's working to try

105
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: to improve every day and that's, um, that's why he's still,

106
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: you know, such a good player and has been for

107
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: a long time. But yeah, of course his intellect helps

108
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: him be the good, productive player that he is. Um,

109
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: it's not at all physical but um, that's that's how

110
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: he's been for a long time and lucky to coaching.

111
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: And how would you describe Mikayle Dugger's growth as well

112
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: as a person came in you kind of kind of

113
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: raw and ma get a big jump obviously from where

114
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: he was in college to the pro game. Um, what

115
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: have you seen from him over the last three years

116
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: and how much has it benefited him to have Dev

117
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: Dev's brain and uh and AP's brain to to get

118
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: him to where he needs to go. It's great. I

119
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: think he did come into a good situation in the

120
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: room where he could learn from guys like Devin an Ap.

121
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: And you know, he's always been really smart, hard working,

122
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: you know, obviously talented, but more so just as a

123
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: player as you know growing in the NFL. Has always

124
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: been a smart and hard working guy at Doug has

125
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: and that's you know that hasn't changed since he's got here.

126
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: And his commitment you know every day and every week too,

127
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: putting in the work to learn the system or on

128
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: the call, learning the opposing offense, whatever it is, has

129
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: been great. Those older guys being in the room has

130
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: been able to guide him a little more. You know,

131
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: in the talk and the meeting room and stuff like

132
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: what are they looking at? I think to make him

133
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: a little more effective with his preparation and in turn

134
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: with his performance on Sundays, just making you know, confirming

135
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: some of the ideas he's already had about preparing or

136
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: playing and adjusting on the field, stuff like that. And

137
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: so that's been great for him. You know, it's always

138
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: good to get those confirmations or new ideas on how

139
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,679
Speaker 1: to prepare stuff like that. So, yeah, it's been excellent

140
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: and Doug's not a great job. We appreciate. Thanks you.

141
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: Two final questions Karen greg Get and Nicomelli. Hey, Brian,

142
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: how are you good? How are you karing good? Thanks?

143
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering if you consider Zach Wilson a mobile

144
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 1: quarterback or do you have to defend against the possibility

145
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: of him running the football? Sure, yeah, you definitely have to,

146
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: you know, be ready for him to run. He's an

147
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: athletic guy. He probably more scrambles to throw than he

148
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: does scramble to run, which is probably kind of what

149
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: you're asking. But he can, you know, he just picked

150
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 1: up a first down against Buffalo U a couple of

151
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: weeks ago. I mean, he can he can run for

152
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: a first down if you give enough for him? So, um, yeah,

153
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: certainly something that's a factor. Do you want to keep

154
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: him in the pocket or I mean it was almost

155
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: an advantageous the last time you played him to have

156
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: him kind of scrambling around and trying to find people

157
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: and making Aaron throws. Yeah. Um, you know that's probably

158
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: a better question for um, yeah, for DeMarcus or draw

159
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: it or something. But I think as a as a

160
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: pass rushing team, you know you want the plan is

161
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: to go in there and get the quarterback. It's not

162
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: to you know, want him to scramble and have to

163
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: chase him down. Um most of the time. But you know,

164
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: there's any number of ways you can be effective against

165
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback. Could be you know, him in the pocket,

166
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: could be him scrambling. Just depends on the week, I

167
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: would say, depends on the plan. Great, thanks a lot, Brian,

168
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: Thank you. And the last question Nickomelli, Hey, Brian, just

169
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: a quick question about the bye week. Did you get

170
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: a chance to watch any football this past weekend, particularly

171
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: any pregame coverage on CBS. UM. I did not get

172
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: a chance to watch the pregame coverage on CBS. But

173
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: I do know they had a very good um guest

174
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: analysts on board. Um. I saw some of the you know,

175
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: saw some of the clips, heard some of them, heard

176
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 1: some of the analysis, and sound like he did a

177
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: good job, which is you know, as expected. UM. I

178
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: think if I was in any position, I would hire

179
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: Devon for anything, any type of job he was available. UM,

180
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: which is fine because in reality he should probably you know,

181
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna be the one looking for a job

182
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: from him at some point. He's that impressive. UM. But yeah, no,

183
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: I didn't see a lot. I spent the spent the

184
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: bye weekend hanging with UM, with my wife Kelli and

185
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: our dog Bella. And that was, you know, not all

186
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: off football, which is what you know bye weekends for

187
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: for the most part, exactly. Any ribbing from teammates in

188
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: the DB's room after coming in this week after that, um, yeah, yeah,

189
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: there was a little talk, a little talk. You know

190
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna go out TV. You know you're gonna get

191
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 1: a little you're gonna hear a lot of something when

192
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: you have you know, certain amount takes or whatever. MH awesome,
