Excited about the opportunities, certainly, 19 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 5: but try not to think of it in those terms 20 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 5: like we have a job to do as a staff, 21 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 5: myself players included, like focus really on having a great 22 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 5: week of preparation, making sure that we're putting our best 23 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 5: foot forward, using the bye week to improve some you know, 24 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 5: some areas where we really need to improve on. And 25 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 5: you know, ultimately then you know, call a good game 26 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 5: on Sunday. 27 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 6: Obviously, on Sunday it change your you know, your role 28 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 6: and stuff changes. But from Monday through Saturday, how much 29 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 6: does that change? 30 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 7: What? 31 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 6: What what you have to do and and kind of 32 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 6: what's you know, what's. 33 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 7: Asked to do. 34 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think we're fortunate to have a really good 35 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 5: staff that you can collaborate with, uh lean on obviously, Kevin, 36 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 5: this week has been great. The rest of the staff 37 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 5: has been great, you know, Bloom and CEO and some 38 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 5: of the guys that you lean on throughout the week. 39 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 5: You know, your job changes a little bit, right Like 40 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 5: you're having final stamp power on the game plan and 41 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 5: where you see things falling and what's going to make 42 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 5: it to Sunday. So that certainly changes, but the collaborative 43 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 5: nature of it does not. Ultimately you're making the final decision, which, 44 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 5: like I said, changes things a bit, but but process 45 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 5: goes on as normal outside of that final part. 46 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 3: The conclusion you drew after the bye week about the 47 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: passing game. 48 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, Look, there's a lot of areas there we need 49 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 8: to improve. 50 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 5: And in the passing game, like we've said from the jump, 51 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 5: takes all eleven. Certainly we want to stress defenses in 52 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 5: probably some ways that we have not yet been able 53 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 5: to or not able to connect on, you know, feature 54 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 5: the guys that we can lean on and make our 55 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 5: quarterback feel comfortable. 56 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 8: So, you know, the bye weeks are always great. 57 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 5: We could we needed the reset to kind of look 58 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 5: at things, make sure that we're doing the best things 59 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 5: for our players, best things for our quarterbacks. And I 60 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 5: feel like we have a good plan moving forward. 61 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 9: I think you'd learned when you're calm plays Notre Dame 62 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 9: in Alabama, and do you think calling them in the 63 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 9: NFL will be any different? 64 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 5: Look, you learn every time you call plays, right, you know, 65 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 5: I started calling plays the last game of the season 66 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 5: in twenty nineteen. You know, had a handful of years 67 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 5: there in a row calling them, called them in big games, 68 00:02:58,919 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 5: call them in games. 69 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 8: Field, and everywhere in between. 70 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 5: Worked for two head coaches that are pretty intense on 71 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 5: game day. So obviously you learn how to block out 72 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 5: some noise, some friendly fire there. But I think you 73 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 5: get into a groove, you get into a comfort level. 74 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 5: So much of it is about learning your own team, 75 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 5: learning your own quarterback. 76 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 10: You know. 77 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 5: Fortunate for me, I've been able to be here, sit 78 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 5: with Dylan, be with the offense. I know kind of 79 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 5: what helps him, what makes him click. I think, you know, 80 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 5: got a good feel for our personnel here. That's so 81 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 5: important when it comes to calling games. And then you know, 82 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 5: you get into a rhythm throughout the game of figuring 83 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 5: out what from the plan works, what you need to adjust, 84 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 5: what they're doing, to try to take some things away, 85 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 5: and then you're just looking to build counters and things 86 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 5: that can compliment. 87 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 8: What you've already tried to set up. 88 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,839 Speaker 5: But I think every time you call a game, you learn, 89 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 5: every time you even for me in the role I've 90 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 5: been in, like you learn as you're putting yourself in 91 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 5: the shoes to call a game again, you know, as 92 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 5: you're listening and observing and helping, you know. I think 93 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 5: those were critical moments for me to move forward on. 94 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 5: So I like the NFL part. I think the last 95 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 5: couple of years, just being in the position I've been 96 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 5: and seeing it firsthand, I don't have a whole lot 97 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 5: of concern there. 98 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 11: I mean the fact that you've got some so many 99 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 11: young skill players on offense, and you you know, have 100 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 11: this experience calling plays in college and these college concepts, 101 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 11: Like how how much of an impacted is that to 102 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 11: these days? 103 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know if it is. 104 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 5: I really look at it as calling a game and 105 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 5: like you're gonna shape it to who you have. You know, 106 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 5: I think we have a good blend of young and 107 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 5: vets right now, and we got to get the most 108 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 5: out of them. 109 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 8: You know, I. 110 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 5: Wouldn't say like solely because I called games in college. 111 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 8: It gives me a leg up. 112 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 5: I think calling games gives you the perspective of how 113 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 5: you utilize your personnel and how you utilize putting guys 114 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 5: in the right spots. Certainly, like you see a lot 115 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 5: of things from college transfer into the NFL as of late. 116 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 5: You know, like you watch Denver play, they have a 117 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 5: lot of stuff there that that makes their quarterback comfortable. 118 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 5: So I think finding the right blend of again, maximizing 119 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 5: your personnel and who you have is important. 120 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: New England game, you mentioned that you got to make 121 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 3: Gabriel comfortable. Yeah, and then he went out and did 122 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 3: what he did. You only threw eight ball to the receiver. Yeah, 123 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 3: how do you make him comfortable? 124 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 8: Yeah, we got to put receivers. 125 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: We got to put the receivers in the right spots. 126 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 5: We got to ask him to do the right things. 127 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 5: We got to make sure that we're giving him the 128 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 5: looks during the week. You know, certainly they did some 129 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 5: things there to take some some looks away, but getting 130 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 5: him to progress and feel confident in those things. And again, 131 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 5: it's it's all that work has done throughout the week, 132 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 5: and then when a team's doing something that's gonna take 133 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 5: it away, you got to have counters and answers for that. 134 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 8: I will, Yeah, why do you like to do it 135 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 8: like that? 136 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 5: It's a great vantage point to be able to call 137 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 5: the game. It's a great environment to be able to 138 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 5: call a game, and it's where my comfort's been. I 139 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 5: have called games from the field. I prefer to call 140 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 5: him from the booths as times progressed on, but want 141 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 5: to keep the same rhythm that we have. 142 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 2: Like Dylan or whoever's quarterback. 143 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 11: Then we'll have to feel Musgrave. 144 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 2: Right there as like boots on the ground right next 145 00:05:58,839 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 2: to him. 146 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, we've had good We've had a good throughout the 147 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 5: entire year playing on how to communicate from the box 148 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 5: down through bill through the phone. 149 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 8: So there's plenty of ways to get that across, and 150 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 8: you talk. 151 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 7: About getting the most out of it. 152 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 6: So Jerry, obviously it's been a tough first eight eight games. 153 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 6: How do you balance trying to get him involved, especially 154 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 6: early in the game, with not trying to force the 155 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 6: game playing to you know, to one player or something 156 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 6: like that. 157 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you got to be multiple in what 158 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 5: you do so that way you can't just let them 159 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 5: hone in and take something away. But that's a good perspective, right, 160 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 5: Like there's a balance between hey, feature these guys get 161 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 5: him easy touches, also understanding that could happen in the 162 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 5: rhythm of the game. But look, we're better when our 163 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 5: best players are playing well, we're better when our best 164 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 5: players are touching the ball. So I think that's an 165 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 5: area of focus for every team, not just us, and 166 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 5: so our job as coaches is to find ways to 167 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 5: not allow them to take that away. 168 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 3: It's comfortable out a little shotgun at Orgon. Gabriel was 169 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 3: comfortable playing most shotgun. Ye or you need you think 170 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: you need to go to that to make them more comfortable. 171 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 5: I think there's a lot of things we can do 172 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 5: to make them comfortable. I think there's great communication between 173 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 5: Dylan and the staff on what gets him to that 174 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 5: point the decision was made. I think just the bye 175 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 5: week gives, you know, some perspective. Certainly we want to 176 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 5: play better. I'll say this, like I came to Cleveland 177 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 5: to work for Kevin. That's really the reason I took 178 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 5: this job two years ago. Like think the world of them, 179 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 5: still think the world of him. Really, like fortunate for 180 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 5: the support he's given me over the last week, the 181 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 5: support he's had for me over the last couple of years. 182 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 5: Like I wanted to come to Cleveland to work for Kevin. 183 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 5: You know, I think the timing of it. You know, 184 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 5: you have a bye week, you have some time to 185 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 5: step away and look at things through a different perspective 186 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 5: and want to create a spark for the offense. And 187 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 5: you know, again, like how I feel is whatever they 188 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 5: want me to do, whatever's asked me to help us 189 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 5: win games. That's what I want to do at the 190 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 5: highest level. So again, working really collaboratively with Kevin and 191 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 5: really appreciate you know that part of it. So it's 192 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 5: his decision and you know, want to make the most of. 193 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: It yesterday that you will have final say and latitude 194 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: over most things that he really wants you if you 195 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: have to put your stamp on this, But also when 196 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: it comes to maybe whether. 197 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 11: Or not to go on it for it. 198 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 2: On fourth down, he's going to retain some of that. 199 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 7: How do you feel about how. 200 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 8: He's the head coach. 201 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 5: Every head coach makes the decisions on game day management, right, 202 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 5: It's your job to call the play when the situations 203 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 5: come up. It's their job to head coaches job to 204 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 5: make sure that they're putting the team in the best position. 205 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 12: Receiving more heavily involved than make. 206 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 8: Bad in recent weeks. 207 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 11: Then also too, you know how much of maybe the 208 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 11: inconsistency involved and do you think has led to some 209 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 11: of the drop passes? 210 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think just maximizing what they do really well, 211 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 5: not allowing a team to kind of bear down on 212 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 5: certain things and make sure you have enough multiplicity there 213 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 5: to move guys around, put them in the right spots. 214 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 5: And then yeah, I mean I think you want to 215 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 5: get guys into a rhythm. The more success they have, 216 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 5: the more confident they play. You get him into a rhythm, 217 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 5: you're going to see better play I think, and higher 218 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 5: percentage of things going the right way. So it's our 219 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 5: job again as coaches to build that in. 220 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 7: And Gabriel's four starts. 221 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 3: Do you think defenses are trying to hem them into 222 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 3: the pocket to keep them in the pocket and make 223 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 3: it more. 224 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 7: Difficult for him? 225 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think every defense you play at certain rush 226 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 5: patterns where they try to take away what a quarterback's 227 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 5: comfortable with. You know, you see a lot of times 228 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 5: with the right handers, they try to use a flush rush, 229 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 5: get them out to the right, and then the'll loop 230 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 5: somebody and show up as a quarterback tries to get 231 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 5: out to their right. You know, you see guys who 232 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 5: may be retreat in the pocket, they want to push 233 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 5: the inside. So I think, you know, defensive coordinators do 234 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 5: a good job of studying quarterbacks habits, and we got 235 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 5: to make sure that we're doing enough in our protection 236 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 5: scheme to allow him to have different answers. 237 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 9: Definite point, But just from a I guess aesthetics how 238 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 9: it looks because it's the same playbook, because it's still collaborative, collaborative. 239 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 9: Do you think, like just watching the game, the offense 240 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 9: and how it operates is going to look much differ 241 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 9: than it did the first eight week. 242 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 8: I'll ask you next week. I guess you know, I don't. 243 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 5: I would think every play caller is going to have 244 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 5: a different feel, a different spin on things. They're gonna 245 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 5: have things that they value, things that they want to 246 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 5: get to. Kevin and I are not the same person. 247 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 5: Although to your point, we have enough in our offense 248 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 5: to make it look different in spots. We have enough 249 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 5: depth in what we're asking those guys to do to 250 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 5: make it look different. But I think some of the 251 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 5: core principles continue on. We just have to do them 252 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 5: at a higher level more. 253 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 7: Obviously, fans are. 254 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 13: Familiar with the Tommy Reeves offense, so without getting. 255 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 8: Anything away with the Ohio state country, Yeah, what. 256 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 7: Do you think they think you can expect. 257 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 8: I'm not going to put any labels on it. 258 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 5: We want to go out there and play sound football, 259 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 5: put our players in the right spots, and have success. Like, look, 260 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 5: we got to score points. We got to stay on 261 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 5: the offense. To sit here and say a bunch of 262 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 5: stuff that it's going to look like, you know, we 263 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 5: want to maximize the guys we have and that's looked different. 264 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 5: First year I called plays at Notre Dame looks different 265 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 5: than when I was at Alabama. It's just you're trying 266 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 5: to maximize the guys you have on the roster. 267 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 3: Trying here for the offensive line in general. But do 268 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 3: you feel it's it's stabilized now? 269 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 5: It feels like that, right, I mean, you get a 270 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 5: couple of weeks here being healthy, you know, you feel 271 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 5: good about where those guys are at, where the tackles 272 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 5: are at. So yeah, I think as the year goes on, 273 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 5: the more continuity you can have up front, you know, 274 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 5: the better off you are and pass pro, the better 275 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 5: off you are in combination of the run game, all 276 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 5: of those things. 277 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: As the tight ends coach last year, do you have 278 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 2: you know, do you have some favoritism? 279 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 7: Yeah? 280 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 10: Do you for tight ends? 281 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 2: Do you think that you might you know, just lit 282 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 2: the tight ends. 283 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 7: Cook a little bit more? 284 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 8: I don't know about that. 285 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 14: Yeah, looking for Brian, then Nick and now Kevin as 286 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 14: a coordinator, maybe a play card where do you feel 287 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 14: like you've evolved or maybe changed throughout everything. 288 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a really good question. You know, I think 289 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 5: when you go into it as a coordinator is like 290 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 5: I was twenty seven when I got that job in Notreed, 291 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 5: and you have an idea of what you want your 292 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 5: offense to look like and you try to shape it, 293 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 5: and I think you learn pretty quickly it's really not 294 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 5: about what you want it to be. It's about what 295 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 5: your players can do and what puts them in a 296 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 5: position to have success. So certainly learn that young in 297 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 5: the career. And then I think with you know coach 298 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 5: Saban and Alabama, you just one you learn how to 299 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 5: have compliments, how to have counters in that league at 300 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 5: that level, like you better have that stuff built in 301 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 5: or you getting exposed pretty quick. And then I think 302 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 5: you learn the ability to anticipate and have some foresight 303 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 5: into what teams are going to try to do to 304 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 5: stop you, and then have a great plan there. I 305 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 5: will say with with Nick as well, like you better 306 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 5: have a core belief on on what your guys can 307 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 5: execute at a really high level and continue to ask 308 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 5: him to do that, which like he challenged you to 309 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 5: be simple and execute those things at a really high level. 310 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 5: And I think again, like you have all these ideas 311 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 5: of what you want to be, it's important to remember, 312 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 5: like put your players in a position to execute the 313 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 5: same thing over and over again, and they can be 314 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 5: pretty good at that and definitely learn that throughout that year. 315 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 5: And like I've had great mentors, great people to be 316 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 5: surrounded by this my entire coaching career, and certainly along 317 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 5: the way, they shape how you call plays, shape how 318 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,199 Speaker 5: you coach and coordinate. 319 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 3: That. 320 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 7: How do you how do you know? 321 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,359 Speaker 15: How does a coach. 322 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 16: You're may be working under know when you're ready for 323 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 16: that elevation to become. 324 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 7: A play caller and offensive coordinator? 325 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 8: Like it's is it? 326 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 7: Is it more of like a just trial by fire? 327 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 10: Yeah? 328 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 8: I don't know. 329 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 5: I you know, I haven't had the opportunity to do 330 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 5: it up from the other side. 331 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 8: You probably don't. 332 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 5: You just put in the work and you try to 333 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 5: put your players in the right spots. The first game 334 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 5: I called was a bowl game. You know, at the 335 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 5: end of a year, and you know, you work towards it, 336 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 5: you try to start visualizing it and anticipating it, but 337 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 5: you know at some point you got to go out 338 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 5: there and do it. And you know you you rep it, 339 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 5: You practice it, You work exercise throughout the week to 340 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 5: put yourself in that spot, and then you lean on 341 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 5: the people around you, and you have confidence in what 342 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 5: you're doing. 343 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz discussed how justin fields his mobility 344 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: can change a game. 345 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 9: Of the game he had right the five sacks, the 346 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 9: lay frustration he showed, Like just what did you take 347 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 9: away from his performance and then his reaction to be taken. 348 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 10: Out at the end of that game. 349 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 17: Yeah, I like the competitiveness with it. You know, you 350 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 17: want guys and and the thing is for him like 351 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 17: there's there's sometimes you get taken out of a game 352 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 17: because it's like a blowout win and you're protecting your 353 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 17: guys at the end of the game. 354 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 13: And we had that at the end of the Miami game. 355 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 17: You know, and guys guys want, you know, sacks and 356 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 17: interceptions and things like that, and they're fairly well, they're 357 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 17: easier to get at that time at a game than 358 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 17: other times. But this was the point that we were down, 359 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 17: and I appreciated the competitiveness of him wanting to figure 360 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 17: that out. I also one percent see where Kevin was 361 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 17: with it of you know, the game's over, let's let's 362 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 17: protect our players. Outstanding performance, you know, I think I 363 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 17: think the thing and I told him this The thing 364 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 17: I was probably most proud of his play was was 365 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 17: not the five sacks. 366 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 13: It was the way he played the run. 367 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 17: In that game, and he did a really good job 368 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 17: there set in edges and you know, and and chase 369 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 17: him from the backside and things like that. Obviously, in 370 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 17: a losing effort, there's really no silver linings, but it 371 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 17: was a good individual performance. 372 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 18: We know how important Miles is to your defense on 373 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 18: the field, but when you're going through these and you're 374 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 18: trying to clean things up, how important is he off 375 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 18: the field in the efforts that you're trying to make 376 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 18: across the team. 377 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 13: Yeah, you mean just. 378 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 7: The him being vocal and open and that. 379 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean you want all their all your guys 380 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 17: to be honest and to be yeah, to be honest 381 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 17: with their feelings and things like that, but you also 382 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 17: you also want to frame it the right way, and 383 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 17: I think Miles has been good that way. I mean, 384 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 17: you know, I think that you guys that deal with 385 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 17: him on a daily basis, I mean, you know, having 386 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 17: frustration at the end of the game is not something 387 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 17: that it normally shows with him. So he's done a 388 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 17: good job of being consistent and working. I don't know 389 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 17: if you guys noticed, but like the week before that game, 390 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 17: he took every single practice rep, every single and he 391 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 17: had told Jacques, I don't He had told Jacques, hey, 392 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 17: I wasn't happy with my performance the week before. You're 393 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 17: not taking me out of practice in this during this week. 394 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 17: And I think that goes you know, like that kind 395 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 17: of statement speaks speaks loud too, and he ended up with, 396 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 17: you know, a good performance in the game. So you know, 397 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 17: you know, I don't want to, you know whatever, call 398 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 17: that out too much, you guys. You guys aren't out 399 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 17: there and see the reps, but usually d Lineman because 400 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 17: particularly the way we go, we'd like split reps in practice. 401 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 17: But I think that sends a strong message. And you know, 402 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 17: it's a difficult thing to do during the week to 403 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 17: take every single rep, but I appreciated him doing that. 404 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 17: I think it showed on that Sunday again, no silver 405 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,239 Speaker 17: linings and a loss, but you know, we'll put it 406 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:36,959 Speaker 17: behind us and move on to the jets. 407 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 2: If a person's going to be able to play or not. 408 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 2: But with how well he's been doing, just in terms 409 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: of calling your defense back there and managing the whole thing, 410 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 2: what will that be like for you guys, if he can't. 411 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 17: Go, well, we have some experienced players there. My mood 412 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 17: got a lot of his starting experience last year. Devin 413 00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 17: Bush has played in there, you know, Bay has played 414 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 17: in there. You know, So we have a lot of 415 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 17: different ways that we can go with it. And you know, 416 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 17: we'll practice that way and just see where it see 417 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 17: where it lands. But yeah, Carson means a lot to us. 418 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 17: He's not just from his play on the well his 419 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 17: not just his play, but also his communication and you know, 420 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 17: things like that. And I think he's also stepping into 421 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 17: some leadership things. We've said a lot of times it's 422 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 17: just a matter of time before the. 423 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 13: Ball found him, and it did on that play. 424 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 17: And you know, I think, you know, we'll get him 425 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 17: back on the field, whether it's this week, next week, 426 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 17: the week after, whatever it is, I think you'll continue 427 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,719 Speaker 17: to see a lot of those same positives from him. 428 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 19: You're a side of the ball directly, But with Kevin 429 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 19: handing off play calling to Tommy, just what type of 430 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 19: message do you think that sort of sends and what 431 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 19: does it saying about Kevin as the leader of this 432 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 19: team that he's wanted to do something like that that 433 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 19: this junction sees. 434 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 17: Yeah, you guys know Kevin, He's all about the team, 435 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 17: and he's extremely humble and doesn't overreact the things. So anything, 436 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 17: any decision he makes is going to be a very 437 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 17: measured decision. And if he thinks that's what's best for 438 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 17: the team, then we trust him for that to be 439 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 17: best for the team. 440 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 13: And like you said, like that that's that's. 441 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 17: Really the only thing that comes out of it. Like 442 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 17: who's calling the plays doesn't affect us on defense. But 443 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 17: I think from a leadership standpoint, from you know, Kevin's standpoint, 444 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 17: you know, with you know him being humble enough to 445 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 17: make that move and then also measured and you know 446 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 17: it's not I mean, you guys know Kevin. He doesn't 447 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 17: make any set of the pants. 448 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 13: Decisions. 449 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 17: So I think that you know that that's all, that's 450 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 17: all part of it, and it you know that that 451 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 17: reinforces his leadership on this team. 452 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 9: In that Patriots team looks like they had some success 453 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 9: in the second half running to the outside. 454 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,959 Speaker 10: What did you see and how can you clean that up? 455 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 7: Yeah? 456 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 17: I mean some of it was a couple of misstackles 457 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 17: and we've generally been a really good tackling team this year. 458 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 17: So some of it was that, and then some of 459 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 17: it was the quarterback scrambles. 460 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 13: You know, I mean that game. I mean, when you 461 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 13: look at the. 462 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 17: Rushing stats, it's been so long I can't remember, but 463 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 17: they're obviously bullied by you know, those scrambles, which were 464 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 17: big games. It all counts the same, you know, whether 465 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 17: they're running or passing. But for the most part, I've 466 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 17: been pleased with our perimeter defense this year. We put 467 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 17: a big emphasis into it, and particularly our defensive tackles 468 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 17: have done a really good job of flattening it out 469 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 17: and making plays on things like jet sweeps and cracked 470 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 17: tosses and things like that. This game, I thought we 471 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 17: did take a little bit of a step back, and 472 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 17: we got to bounce back that way. 473 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 7: All really well. 474 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 3: And how much does the presence of a running quarterback 475 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 3: enhance that running game? 476 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 17: Yeah, for sure, it just makes you defend one extra guy. 477 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 17: It's like having an extra blocker out there, because you know, 478 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 17: you have to have availability to handle the quarterback. So 479 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 17: a lot of different ways to do it, but you know, 480 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 17: it certainly adds a different different dimension. You know, Fields 481 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 17: has tremendous speed, he's a four to three type quarterback. 482 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,120 Speaker 13: He's got great size. 483 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 17: They have called quarterback runs, like quarterback sweeps, particularly in 484 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 17: short yardage. They have quarterback draws, and then they have options, 485 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 17: whether it's a zone read or an RPO and things 486 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 17: like that. It just really makes you play a sound 487 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 17: It's like playing the triple option in college, right. You 488 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 17: have to make sure you cover to dive the quarterback 489 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 17: and the pitch, and this makes makes you really play 490 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 17: assignment football and puts an emphasis on that. You know, 491 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 17: we've obviously seen it before. Lamar with Baltimore runs a 492 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 17: lot of stuff like that, and we've seen other teams 493 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 17: that do it. So we have a good plan to 494 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 17: be able to handle it. But sometimes plan is a 495 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 17: little bit easier in theory than an execution. It's one 496 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 17: thing to say, yeah, you have the quarterback on this, 497 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 17: but another thing when you have a guy that's the 498 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 17: athlete that Justin Fields is and the speed that he has, 499 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 17: so you know it's going to take it's going to 500 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 17: take a good team effort to defend that stuff. 501 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 12: Bleak wide story that we're working on. If you've got 502 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:23,640 Speaker 12: a unit to struggle with mistackles, which is fundamental tackling. 503 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 12: How much can that be cured or fixed during the 504 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 12: middle of the season, especially with lack of padded practices 505 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 12: and everything. 506 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 17: I'm sorry, you're talking about us, You're talking about just 507 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 17: in the league to. 508 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 12: Be withles and everything. 509 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean, i'd say I think I've said this before. 510 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 17: I think most of the time misstackle is a result 511 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 17: from poor positioning as opposed to like the technique of 512 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 17: the tackle, right, like you know you're supposed you overrun it, 513 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 17: you take a bad angle. I think it's more missed 514 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 17: bad positioning, And a lot of times tackling comes to 515 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 17: pursuit because there's a there's a big difference. Like you know, 516 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 17: the first guy takes a shot at a guy and 517 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 17: misses and forces the running. 518 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 13: Back to cut back. 519 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 17: That's technically mistackle, but he forces him right into the 520 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 17: next line of pursuit and that guy makes the tackle. 521 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 17: You don't even notice it, like you guys write about 522 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 17: it that you know, you know, you don't even say 523 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 17: it's mistackle, but you miss and then there's nobody there 524 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 17: to clean it up. It stands out a little bit 525 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 17: more so, you know, pursuit positioning. I think those have 526 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 17: a lot to do with it, and then it's the 527 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 17: technique that goes into it. I think just around the NFL, 528 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 17: I know, in particular now with US, coaches have gotten 529 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 17: very creative in a lot of tackling drills that aren't 530 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 17: live tackling, right, because nobody lives tackle live tackles in practice. 531 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 17: And you see it all across with different techniques. I 532 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 17: mean you see every day when you watch our individual 533 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 17: and I think that's a big change. I mean, you 534 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 17: go back twenty years ago, you know there was some 535 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 17: form tackling, but there was nowhere near the emphasis on 536 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 17: tackling with different drills and different. 537 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 13: Bags and things like that that we have now. 538 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 17: So I think that's been a strength of our defense 539 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 17: this year, and I think it comes from a couple 540 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 17: of different things. Our guys play free because they know 541 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 17: what they're doing generally, and we played with good effort, 542 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 17: and then that cleans that stuff up. But I think 543 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 17: the technique certainly has a lot to do with it. 544 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 17: And when it's all said and done, how well you 545 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 17: tackle is probably the number one indicator of how well 546 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 17: you play defense. 547 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 2: So more Miles had mentioned that the Patriots left him 548 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 2: in one on ones. More than he has seen. And 549 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 2: I'm guessing that first of all, was that a little surprising, 550 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 2: and then also I'm guessing the Jets will probably put 551 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 2: two and three guys on him. 552 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 10: Again after that perform. 553 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean we expect that every week, you know. 554 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 17: They they did have a little bit more opportunity for 555 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 17: Miles and they were counting on the ball coming out quick. 556 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 17: I think, you know, some of those Miles made some 557 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 17: really good pass rushers, but there were a couple in 558 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 17: there that really were result of taking away where the 559 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 17: quarterback was looking and buying us a little bit of time. 560 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 13: Generally, when he gets clean. 561 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 17: Looks like you look at it and you're like, ball's 562 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 17: coming out quick, or it's a screen. 563 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 13: You know, you're just like, they're not going to give. 564 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 17: Him that that one on one and when they do, 565 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 17: you know, you have to make them pay for it. 566 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,479 Speaker 17: And you know, I think that's part of part of 567 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 17: what he did in that game. Again, wasn't enough to 568 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 17: get to win. And you know that's what we judge 569 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 17: ourselves on. But everybody has a plan, you know, whether 570 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 17: it's throwing the ball quick, throwing screens. You know, Miami 571 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 17: chose to throw a lot of screens, and our defensive 572 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 17: line really did a good job of turning and running 573 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 17: and neutralize and not only neutralized on the screens, but 574 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 17: making tackles for losses, turning them into negative plays. 575 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 13: You know. 576 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 17: So everybody's got a plan, we'll just we'll just react 577 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 17: to it. He's he's got a good plan for dealing 578 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 17: with chips. We've moved him around maybe just a little 579 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 17: bit more, try to keep the target off and moved 580 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 17: them a little bit more right and left. You know, 581 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 17: he still wears number ninety five, and you know he's 582 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 17: six four two seventy five, and you know he's easy 583 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 17: to find. But you know, great players can still affect 584 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 17: the game even if they're doubled. 585 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: I guess Special teams coordinator bubbav and Trone spoke on 586 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: the successful on side kick attempt in Week eight against 587 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots. 588 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 7: Remove overpressure, change things up to five pree. 589 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 20: I went back to Indian some my son play football weekend. 590 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 20: So that was good. Now it's it was a good, good, 591 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 20: good week to just you know, reset, get back on 592 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 20: track and refocus for the next nine to nine weeks. 593 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 3: At the New In one game, you tried two on 594 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 3: side kicks there and was successful on the second one, 595 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 3: but started the first one with the horc has yep. 596 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 7: Uh, so you obviously got a few options. 597 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 15: Yeah, we have a few options. 598 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 20: Good execution on the second one with uh with the 599 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 20: kick and got the high hop there and Gauge was 600 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 20: in a good spot. 601 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 15: So give our offense another opportunity with the ball. 602 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 9: What were you look back for games like? What are 603 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 9: your biggest takeaways about your unit? And I guess the 604 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 9: areas of improvement You're trying to make the most. 605 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 10: Of the second half. 606 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 20: Yeah, we started slow, just a couple of mishaps early. 607 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 20: I felt like we got back on track about midway 608 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 20: through the first half of the year. Definitely missed some 609 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 20: opportunities in the return game, both on kor and pum return. 610 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 20: So emphasis on on that moving forward with also a 611 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 20: priority and coverage. I mean that's always gonna be u uh. 612 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 20: A huge thing for us was that. 613 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 7: For you guys, you played a lot of special. 614 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 20: Genes for ye I'm sorry, oh yeah, Joe, for you, 615 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 20: so say, I say kind of yeah, I think, I 616 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 20: mean we've really gotten contributions from a number of different areas. 617 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 20: We have a decent amount of D linemen that are 618 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 20: playing for us don't have a ton of like I 619 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 20: would say, like core type guys, So I feel like 620 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 20: we're pulling from different, uh parts of the team. So 621 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 20: it's it's been a good thing for the for the 622 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 20: D line to give us some contributions there. 623 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 7: Do you practice outside kicks? 624 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 20: What day of the week? We talked through it throughout 625 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 20: the week. We usually typically hit them on Friday. There's 626 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 20: times where well we'll hit them on Thursday as well. 627 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 20: Friday is when I usually do like a I hit 628 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 20: a lot of like situational type things in my meeting, 629 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 20: so you never know. 630 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 7: Whether it's in a game plan or not. So you 631 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 7: practice them anyway. 632 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 20: Yeah, you practice. We practice our on site kick and 633 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 20: we practice our hands in it every week. 634 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 11: Just halfway through the year for Andre and and how 635 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 11: you've kind of seen him come along and obviously work 636 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 11: through some of the misses and skirtles and things like 637 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 11: that that he's had too. 638 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 20: Yeah, and like I said, I feel like early in 639 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 20: the season, you know, first time out there, obviously missed 640 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 20: a couple of kicks against Cincy which are critical, but 641 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 20: then got back on track. Had had a miss at 642 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 20: Detroit on a on a deep kick, missed a kick 643 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 20: at at New England which would have. 644 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 15: Been a big one. 645 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 20: But I feel like he's been really consistent in his 646 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 20: practice reps. 647 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 15: I feel like he's in a good spot, you know, 648 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 15: moving forward. 649 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 7: Tommy before he got here last year. 650 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 15: No, I didn't. I knew. 651 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 20: I knew who Tommy was, but I did not know. 652 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 20: I did not know him changed. 653 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 9: Obviously, Kevin made a change. They played color this week. 654 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 9: Does that do you feel that droughout the coaching staff? 655 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 9: How do you react to something like that? 656 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 20: Not really, Yeah, you know, I haven't really felt anything 657 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 20: different at all. I always tell Tommy I feel like 658 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 20: he's I feel like he's he's younger than me. I 659 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 20: want to say, almost ten years younger than me. I 660 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 20: always feel like he's like my age because we're always 661 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 20: we're always talking and chopping it up and stuff. So 662 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 20: now he's he's a great football coach. He's got a 663 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 20: great mind, very smart. I think he's been really good 664 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 20: for our staff and for our team. 665 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 19: Though obviously doesn't impact you directly that there's a changing play. 666 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 16: Could but what does it say about just Kevin from 667 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 16: a leadership standpoint that he's willing to pass that off, 668 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 16: Like what messages that send to you guys as a 669 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 16: coaching staff, to the team that he's willing to hand 670 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 16: that off just to sort of stify a way to 671 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 16: get this offense the right direction. 672 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean, I couldn't say enough good things about keV. 673 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 20: I think he's I think he's done a great job 674 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 20: with the messaging to our football team, keeping our team connected. 675 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 20: You know, we obviously have a lot of I would 676 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 20: say we have a lot of faith in him to 677 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 20: be able to lead our to be able to lead 678 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 20: this building, and then obviously to be able to hand 679 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 20: it off Tommy. You don't do that unless you trust 680 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 20: the guy that you're You're given that too. So I 681 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 20: think Tommy's, you know, earned that opportunity. So I think 682 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 20: Kevin definitely trusts him. 683 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 7: On side kick. But one last question. Yeah, given the 684 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 7: changes and the rules and having to. 685 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 3: Take Claire, Yeah, how much is about an onside kick now. 686 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 7: It's become luck? 687 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 15: Become luck? 688 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean I think practice execution. 689 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 15: You know, you've got to be able to you have 690 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 15: to hit a good kick. 691 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 20: Yet the formation is going to dictate, you know, how 692 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 20: they are aligned to your personnel. People want to have 693 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 20: other other like avenues and things like that to be 694 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 20: able to like change the play. I always feel like 695 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,479 Speaker 20: you shouldn't if you're losing, in trailing in a game, 696 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 20: you shouldn't have an opportunity to get the ball back. 697 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 15: Like why why? 698 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 20: Like why should we give a higher percentage of a 699 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 20: recovery to a team that's losing. So to me, like, 700 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 20: if you're losing in the game, you should have did 701 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 20: more earlier in the game to not put yourself in 702 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 20: that spot. 703 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 21: Like kicks since it seems like one kickday, how much 704 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 21: because there was there was a play. 705 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 15: Endsday so. 706 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 4: Right, well, and there was a play in Cincinnati, Chicago 707 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 4: on Sunday where the recovering team went up two yards 708 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 4: and it bounced off the guy's foot. How much of 709 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 4: that is a good teaching tool and stuff that let 710 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 4: it go the ten yards, don't don't advance to try. 711 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 10: To get it. 712 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 20: Yeah, I think depending on how your coach in the 713 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 20: play is how those guys are gonna how. 714 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 15: They're going to react, and how they're going to play it. 715 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 20: There's different ways to be able to execute the recovery. 716 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 20: There's different alignments, there's you know, different positions that factor 717 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 20: who are the ball handlers, who are you telling to 718 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 20: recover the ball? Do you have one guy recovering the ball? 719 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 20: Is everyone in our option? So not really trying to 720 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 20: give too much away, but it just depends on how 721 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 20: you're you're coaching those players to do it. But ideally 722 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 20: you don't want to if you're going to block, you 723 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 20: don't want to contact the ball before it hits, before 724 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 20: it gets the returner or before it gets to ten yards. 725 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 21: And then because even on returns and stuff, if you're 726 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 21: going down and it bounces off you, it's still like 727 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 21: ball anyway, too correct. 728 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, Corley, he can returns and kicks last game for yeah, right, 729 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 9: Like what have you seen him overall on your unit 730 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 9: in as a returner? 731 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 20: He's developing, you know, he's learning. I think that he'll 732 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 20: continue to improve the more he the more opportunities he 733 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 20: gets to touch the ball, both in practice any games. 734 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 20: We cleaned up some things from the from the New 735 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 20: England game that I think that we can be better in. 736 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 20: So but I like the kid, hard worker, go with 737 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 20: the ball in his hands, you know he's got to. 738 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 20: He almost has built like a running act. So we 739 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 20: like that about him. 740 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 7: Any special teams coach he was against onside kicks. 741 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 20: I'm no, I'm not against on side kicks, but I 742 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 20: just don't think that like we need to like gimmick 743 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 20: the gimmick the game up and have like a fourth 744 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 20: and like fifteen offensive play to try to get the 745 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 20: ball back or something like that. 746 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 15: Yeah you know, yeah, yeah. 747 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 7: You don't understand why. I mean a chance to come back. 748 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 20: Look, it's a lower percentage, it's a lower percentage recovery 749 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 20: rate because they're i would say, they're trying to keep 750 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 20: the place safe and eliminate the run up to the 751 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,280 Speaker 20: lines to the kick line. 752 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 15: So that's why. 753 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 7: You know. 754 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 20: Now, the one thing that they did do this year 755 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 20: is now you're allowed to have your front foot on 756 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 20: the thirty five yard line, whereas in the past you 757 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 20: would have to have on the thirty four. Hasn't made 758 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 20: that much of a difference. But I'm in no, I'm 759 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 20: in favor of I'm in favor of the on side kick. 760 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 20: But if you're going to try to sustain the same 761 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 20: formation and not have like overloaded formations and run ups 762 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 20: to the line to be able to like they want 763 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 20: to be able to keep the play safe, that's the 764 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 20: way I mean, you're trying to eliminate speed over space. 765 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 15: That's why the kickoff play is what it. 766 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:24,760 Speaker 21: Is now at the midpoint of this season. If you been 767 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 21: surprised with kick return rates and everything, or what's been 768 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 21: your view of the modified. 769 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 20: Rule, No, I mean I told you guys back in 770 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 20: the spring that it's pretty much where I thought it 771 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 20: was going to be. I thought it'd be about eighty 772 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 20: five percent. It's a just under eighty. I think seventy 773 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 20: nine percent. I read that the injury rates are about 774 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 20: the same as a normal play, so the plays proved 775 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 20: to be a safe play. I think you'll still start 776 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 20: to see like evolvement of the play as like the 777 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 20: years go on. I think there's ways to improve it, obviously, 778 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 20: so I think they'll continue to tweak the play. 779 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: Offensive guard Jewel Buttonio talked about how his preparation changes 780 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: with a new play caller. 781 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 22: Fresh cut, like we're doing great new couches. I usually 782 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 22: go with the buzz cut. You know, it takes in season. 783 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 22: I had probably get my haircut two or three times, 784 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 22: but clean it up. You don't keep the beard winter beard, 785 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 22: but uh, you know, shaved down the top a little bit. 786 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 6: Joel Obviously they changed play callers, you know with Tommy 787 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 6: just the direct obviously it's going to impact you, you 788 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 6: know with the plays you run, but directly for an 789 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 6: offensive lineman, how big of a change is that? How 790 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 6: much do you feel that change beyond just on Sundays. 791 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 22: Well, the way we run our meetings and stuff, Tommy 792 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 22: is in front of the room most of the time anyway, 793 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 22: before we even like change plays. He's the offensive coordinator, 794 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 22: so he's kind of the one that runs the majority 795 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 22: offensive meetings. And then in the huddle, Dylan's the one 796 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 22: tell me the plays. So you know, from like a 797 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 22: play calling perspective, like, you know, we just hear what 798 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 22: Dylan tells us to hear. So for us offensive lineman, 799 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 22: it's it's really no different like just getting the plays in. 800 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 22: It's just how how you know Tommy's gonna call the game? 801 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 22: We we don't know really yet, but he, uh, you know, 802 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 22: his mindset and and the way he wants to call plays, 803 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 22: and somebody that I think we're excited to kind of 804 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 22: see what happens. And I think as a coach, like 805 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 22: you want to kind of figure out what's what's working, 806 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 22: what's not working, and maybe if you take a step back, 807 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,959 Speaker 22: you get a bigger picture idea of you know. 808 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 10: Oh this this play could work or this play yeah. 809 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 19: Well had a fly or sale. 810 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 3: They still love their two best defensive players. So it's 811 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 3: the it's the offense field is even more pressure to 812 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 3: get over the humpiness. 813 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 22: Well not pressure. It's our it's our next game. You know, 814 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,720 Speaker 22: it's NFL. So you know, no matter what, every every 815 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 22: team you know has has good players for us. 816 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 10: Even before we heard about the. 817 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 22: Trades on Monday, we were talking about it's about us 818 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 22: on offense, like we have to figure out a way 819 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 22: to play our best, our best game of football. Obviously, 820 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 22: we respect those guys like they're great players. I've played 821 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 22: against you know, Baltimon multiple times and we know they're 822 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 22: great players. But we know anything's gonna be a challenge. 823 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 22: We're really focused on the Cleveland Browns offense and and 824 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 22: what we can do. 825 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 10: Best that you know, I think they put the telling. 826 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:22,240 Speaker 10: I mean, he's a great player. 827 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 22: Like anytime you have to battle the guy and and 828 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 22: they're out or they trade him, like you know it's 829 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 22: a battle, but you know the next man up is 830 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 22: just as hungry and wants to even prove himself more 831 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 22: than a guy that's you know, been established and and 832 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,280 Speaker 22: been an All Pro Pro Bowl player. 833 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 7: So you wouldn't expect that team to be demoral's by losing. 834 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 22: I'm sure there was probably some talk of like what's 835 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 22: going on? But I think if you trust you know, 836 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 22: coach Glenn and and what they're doing, like those guys 837 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 22: are the guys that are gonna be in for them, 838 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 22: are gonna be hungry and want to. 839 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:52,280 Speaker 10: Prove themselves as players. 840 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 22: So I don't think it's just gonna be like, oh, 841 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 22: we're done, we're done for the year, like they're gonna 842 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 22: go out and try and try and win the game. 843 00:38:56,360 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 22: I think football is too violent too, you know, aggressive 844 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 22: of a sport, and it too much for guys to 845 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 22: try and get their next contract or get paid for 846 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 22: anybody to really just like lay down where. 847 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 2: You guys have lost total street No, just like like 848 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,839 Speaker 2: what can you even say about them? 849 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 12: Why do you think that might be? 850 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 19: And what what can you guys do extra trying. 851 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 2: To snap that stream? 852 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 22: Yeah, I knew we hadn't won this year.

But he come to this place from from 940 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 22: somewhere else, you know, and and it becomes part of 941 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 22: your home and and the fans and and your neighbors, 942 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 22: and you know, your kids go to school, and the 943 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 22: teachers and all those people are are part of the 944 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,439 Speaker 22: community that that roots you on, and it becomes part 945 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 22: of your you know, life, and part part. 946 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 10: Of your family. 947 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 22: And you have a lot of experiences here, you know, 948 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 22: for me, like all my kids are born in Cleveland, 949 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 22: like that that's special. And so you become part of 950 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 22: something and it's hard to see yourself, you know, somewhere 951 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 22: else or or anywhere else. And and for me, it 952 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 22: was always trying to get the Browns is as good 953 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 22: as possible, you know, Like those playoff games, those playoff moments, 954 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 22: it was like, all right, we're doing something.
