1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Good morning, Bill. I want to ask you a couple

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: questions about the COVID protocols. Um. The NFL they sent

3
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 1: out a memo this week seeing all teams starting this

4
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: weekend have to go to the intensive protocols for the

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,239
Speaker 1: rest of the season. Is that going to be a

6
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: big change for you guys on where we're going? Uh, well, yeah,

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: it'll be it. Well, it'll be a change. Um we

8
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: as you know, we were in those protocols earlier, so

9
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 1: we've you know, worked through some of that, so we'll

10
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 1: um yeah, well, we'll obviously be compliant and and um,

11
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: you know, do the best that we can to um

12
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: maximize the functionality of you know, what we're trying to

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: do given the protocols that will be in place. So, um,

14
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: there'll be some there'll be some adjustments, but hopefully we'll

15
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: be able to stick with our basic routine as much

16
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: as possible. You know, this sport, football has built so

17
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: much on camaraderie and together and it's some teamwork. What

18
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,839
Speaker 1: are as you found? We're just some of the challenges

19
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: of not being able to be in the locker room

20
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: together and just not being able to be around the

21
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: guys again. Well again, for the for the last few weeks,

22
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: it's been pretty pretty close to normal. So you know,

23
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: the intensive protocol just it changes that a little bit,

24
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: are distancing and so forth, but hopefully we'll be able

25
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: to maintain the bulk of um our routine. And last

26
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: one for me, these intensive protocols are something the NFL

27
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: kind of develops on the fly in response to what

28
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: you guys and the Titans we're going through. Because I

29
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: feel like coming up with these protocols, maybe you have

30
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: helped save the season because it's helped manage the spread

31
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: of the virus. Yeah. I don't know, it's that's to

32
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: be a medical question. Then it's way way over my head. Yeah,

33
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: that's all I got. Thanks, Okay, Sorry, next question Mike

34
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: Greece falled by Karen Greeky. Bill, you've had Rex Burkin

35
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: for four years now, Um, is what he's done this

36
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: year as well as you've seen him play and maybe

37
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: what has stood out to you about his year in totality? Well,

38
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 1: I think Rex has always played well for US. I

39
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: don't think that's really ever been an issue. Um. You know,

40
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: there have been times where he's hasn't been available, but

41
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: you know, his play has been been good. He's been

42
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: a plays in the kicking game. It's been productive offensively, um, blocking,

43
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: picking up the blitz, running, catching, whatever we ask him

44
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: to do. So, um, you know, he's been very, very

45
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: good and very productive for us and I'm glad we

46
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: have him. He's a very versatile player. Next question, Karen

47
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: Greegan called Chris Ryan. Good morning, coach. Morning Karen. Hi.

48
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: First off, I'd like to say, as a member of

49
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: the Armenian community, I just wanted to thank you for

50
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: your remarks and support of Armenia. It means a lot.

51
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: Thank you. You're welcome. Secondly, I was wondering, secondly, you

52
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: have a layup question for me. Yes, given his injury

53
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: history and his age, I was wondering if you saw

54
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: any difference in the effectiveness of JJ Watt and what

55
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: kind of a challenge he's going to present from Michael

56
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: on my new Yeah. Yeah, a big challenge. And I

57
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: think honestly, the experience that JJ has is um, you know,

58
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: very valuable for him. Um. You know, JJ knows obviously

59
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: he has a lot of skill, he's long, he's strong, powerful,

60
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: very quick, um, but his experience and anticipation is outstanding

61
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: and going up against a player who doesn't have as

62
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: much as JJ does and hasn't played against him. Um,

63
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: you know, I think you really have to be mindful

64
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 1: of the tricks that JJ has up as sleeve. He

65
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 1: doesn't do the same thing every time. He does a

66
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: good job of taking advantage of opportunities or changing his

67
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: technique based on the situation. Um. And he's a he's

68
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: a tough guy to play against. So I think his

69
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 1: spirit experience is a big asset for him. Uh. And

70
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: you know, I know Mike studied him hard and uh,

71
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: you know, be ready to go. But you know, until

72
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: you actually face a guy like JJ, it's, um, you know,

73
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: it's hard to replicate him in practice or um, you know,

74
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: or what it's really going to be like during a game.

75
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: So that's but I mean, look that's true of you know,

76
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: Merciless and and they got you know, there's a lot

77
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: of players that are problem um. So, but he's certainly

78
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: a big one. Thank you and thank you again. You're welcome, Karen.

79
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: Next question Chris Ryan, followed by Andrew Callahan. Morning Bill, Hey, Chris,

80
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: how are you wanted to get your your take on

81
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: where the league is heading in regards to the quarterback position.

82
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: You're seeing obviously Shaun Watson this week and Tyler Murray

83
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: next week, and Flamar Jackson previous and it seems like

84
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: that type of a skill set is what we're seeing

85
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: more and more in the league. So what do you

86
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: like about that skill set and do you see that

87
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: as being in the direction of the league moving forward,

88
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 1: that type of a quarterback as opposed to a drop

89
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 1: back password. Yeah, well, you know, I don't know. There's

90
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: there are a lot of good quarterbacks in this league,

91
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: and they all have different styles of play, and so

92
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: you know, I think if you, you know, if you

93
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: have a good quarterback, then you adapt your your offensive

94
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: system them to that player to a degree. So, um,

95
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: but Watson, Watson is as good as anybody we face. UM.

96
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: He's he does a good job at everything. You know,

97
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: he can make all the throws. He's very um, very

98
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: good with his decisiveness. Um makes good reads, uses his

99
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: outlet receivers, gets to a second and third option. UM

100
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: was obviously mobile, He's a hard guy to bring down

101
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,679
Speaker 1: in the pocket. He's strong, he's you know, his legs

102
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: get him some some third down conversions and touchdowns. But

103
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 1: they also buy him some time to work down the field.

104
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: But he can stand in the pocket and throw and

105
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: read coverages and make good decisions and put the ball

106
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: accurately on the receivers um, you know, as well as anybody.

107
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: And he's very UM doesn't give the defense as many

108
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: chances to get the ball. He doesn't turn it over much.

109
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: Uh so is decision making and ball security is is

110
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: good in addition to having you know, a lot of production.

111
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: So when you combine those two elements with a quarterback,

112
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: it's that's that that makes them you know, hard to

113
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: defend and and they don't they don't have many bad

114
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: plays that that ever hurt their team. So that's really

115
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: really the kind of guy you want play in that position.

116
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: A second question on you're talking about the ethnic cleansing

117
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: in Armenia and obviously a lot of athletes and UM

118
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: coaches have taken stances on human rights issues. One of

119
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: the determinants in your view in how you go about

120
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: using your platform in order to speak out on various issues. Yeah,

121
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: I'd really try to focus most of my attention on

122
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: coaching football UM. But you know, there was a very um,

123
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: you know, very nice comment made air and so it

124
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: really is you know, kind of a lot of the

125
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: lines of the comment that Um the secretary made. So

126
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: thanks a question Andrew Callahan following good Kite Bill. Obviously

127
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: he's not very treager that we see step bilmore to

128
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: sit out a few games here. I'm wondering, you know,

129
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: you can take us maybe behind the scenes. We talk

130
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: so much about how he performs on the field and

131
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: it has worked out. Think what has he been doing

132
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: the last few weeks, you know, when it's become clear

133
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: he can't play that Sunday, but maybe to help the

134
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 1: mother corners or be to other parts of the defense. Yeah, Steph,

135
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: you know Steph was um, you know great on that.

136
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: Obviously he has a lot of experience and you know

137
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: has played against um, you know, the players that we

138
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: played against the last last few weeks, UM, Buffalo, the

139
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: Jets and and Baltimore. So UM, you know he's he's

140
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: very good. Uh. He prepares um and like he's going

141
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: to play and helps the other players that are going

142
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: to play with things that um you know that that

143
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: he's familiar with, and uh can can give guidance and

144
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: um you know, can can teach from So UM Steph

145
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: works hard. He works hard to prepare himself. But he's

146
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: a good teammate and he works hard to you know,

147
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: help those um in this case that we're playing in

148
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: his place, or the help those guys that are you know,

149
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: playing with them when he's playing that maybe he's you know,

150
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: done something that they're doing, or cover the guy that

151
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,959
Speaker 1: they've covered, and you know, can can help implement um

154
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: his consistency and his performance and preparation and and really

155
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 1: knowing not only our game plan and what we want

156
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: to do, but knowing our opponent and what they're either

157
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: individual or kind of team tendencies are, you know, including

158
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks. So you know, the defensive back, especially a

159
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: corner really needs and he's the receiver, he's covering the quarterback,

160
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: who's who's handling the ball, and um, you know the

161
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: keys that come with the scheme and formations and splits

162
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: and so forth, things like that that they they're involved with. UM.

163
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: You know that that that offense, that particular offense uses

164
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: and he really does a good job of all that.

165
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: I know he's injured came up really late in that

166
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: ball the week, but he's now missed three games. So

167
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: was there any thought at the time that he might

168
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: be a candidate Fraser knowing could have freed up a

169
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: roupter spotter. Was there any setback that might have caused

170
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: him to miss an extra game and originally anticipated? Yeah, well,

171
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 1: I think if we had known he would have been

172
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: out for uh, you know, a certain period of time,

173
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: then then that would have been an option. But um,

174
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: you know, as I said, he's he's worked hard to

175
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: get back and and uh you know, he's making good progress.

176
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: And you know, we'll see how how things go here

177
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 1: this week and next week and so forth, and let's

178
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: see see where it takes us. And then we'll do

179
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: three final questions to kind follow my field. Perry Bill,

180
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: You've had a couple of days to work with Jordan Thomas. Now,

181
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: just curious what you your takeaways of working on tame

182
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: I've been so far. Well, yeah, well, he's you know,

183
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: he's worked hard here. Um, you know, we were able

184
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: to you know, meet with him virtually and and um

185
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: start to get him caught up with some of the

186
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: terminology and so forth. But it's been good to work

187
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 1: with him on the field. We'll just keep taking a

188
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 1: day by day and let's see where see where that

189
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: takes us. But um, he's engaged, he's all in, he

190
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: wants to do well, and we're trying to catch him

191
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: up as quickly as we can. And I just want cootball.

192
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: I use tourist Hall as an example, but not specifically

193
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: on him. Do you sometimes not know exactly what you

194
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: have making a practice squad player like Torres Hall until

195
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: you actually see um in a game scenario, like he's

196
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: game able to play over the last couple of days,

197
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: for the last couple of weeks. Yeah, I think that's

198
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: true of any player. Um. Unfortunately, you know, practice is

199
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: not a perfect picture of what a player is gonna

200
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: gonna be in the game when you bring in contact

201
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: and instinctiveness and just awareness and all the things that

202
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: come from you know, real football. So sometimes players perform

203
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: better in those situations and sometimes maybe not as good. So, UM,

204
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 1: it's always interesting to see how how those things play out.

205
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 1: And you know, I try not to, you know, make

206
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: up my mind on that how it's gonna go. Although

207
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: you have to go buy what you see, which is

208
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: what you see in practice. But you know, again, sometimes

209
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: in games that's the same as practice, and sometimes it

210
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: could be you know a little better or or maybe

211
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: not quite as good. That's something you just have to

212
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: you know, find out through none of the actual game snaps.

213
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: The last two questions, Bill carry my crease. They build

214
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: the Texans Um obviously have some pretty fast guys playing

215
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: receiver for them. I think they three guys that are

216
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 1: into the port grease Um. How have you seen them

217
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 1: trying to make the most of that speed, whether you know,

218
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: in the roads they run or maybe even some of

219
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: the run plays they'd call that would have be seen

220
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 1: from them in terms of trying to maximize that aspect

221
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: of their office. Yeah, they do a good job. They

222
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 1: they do a good job of taking their shots down

223
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: the field. They they also use those guys at times

224
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: to clear out, which defensively you have to respect to

225
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: open up intermediate type throws. And they've also used those

226
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: guys as you know, shorter, you know, catching run players

227
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 1: like uh, you know, like the play Cook's head in

228
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville game where he you know, took a little

229
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: quick diagal and it was sort of an a little

230
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: bit of a wall play and you know, it took

231
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: it sixty yards for a touchdown on the second play

232
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: of the game against the Jaguars. So it's you know,

233
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: it's not all goes and posts. Um, there's some intermediate

234
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: routes in there as well, and then there's some catching

235
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: run plays from tear screens to under routes, UM you know,

236
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: to you know, wallplays things like that that if those

237
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: guys get a little bit of space, they can they

238
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: can gain just as many yards as you know throwing

239
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: a go route. So they it's a very difficult group

240
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: to defend. And and a quarterback that's very good at

241
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: you know, finding the open man getting on the ball

242
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 1: and no one who is um weapons are and what

243
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: is receiver's gonna do and trying to get the ball

244
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: to them situation where they can really be productive with it. Hey,

245
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: you're welcome. Last question, this is just going a little

246
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: deep on the roster, but just based on the limited

247
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: time that we are at practice. UM, just checking in

248
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: on jeep Bert, the local guy on the practice squad

249
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: who I know came off of practice squad I are

250
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: on Wednesday, but I don't think we saw him yesterday.

251
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: And Zuber are those guys okay, uh yeah, they're um

252
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: uh yeah, well, as you mentioned, uh you know, zuber

253
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: Um has been out there, um, you know, and Burt

254
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: missed a few weeks and came back out there. Um.

255
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: As I'm sure you're well aware, Mike, they're there's no

256
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: injury report on the practice squad players. So, um sometimes

257
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: things come up with those guys from time to time

258
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: and that causes them to you know, miss a day

259
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: or you know, something like that. It's really fairly common that,

260
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: you know, when you have a sixteen man practice squad

261
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: that you know, over the course of a period of

262
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: time that you know, somebody might come up with something

263
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: that would you know, have them not practice. So I

264
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: would put those two guys in that category. Thank you, coach,

265
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: Thanks everyone, great, Thank you
