WEBVTT - Coach Bowles Conference Call (08/30/16)

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, hey Todd, thanks for doing this today. Can you

0:00:03.200 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 1>just um give us the players who aren't playing because

0:00:08.039 --> 0:00:10.720
<v Speaker 1>of injuries in this game that you know wouldn't be

0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:15.200
<v Speaker 1>playing if it you know a good the players that

0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:18.560
<v Speaker 1>aren't planning in this game that would be playing. Decks

0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:22.599
<v Speaker 1>is still banged up. McDougald. Tompkins would play if he

0:00:22.720 --> 0:00:25.759
<v Speaker 1>was healthy. Uh, that would be a wait and see

0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>warm up time. We'll see how he is, a pregame

0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 1>evaluation and see how he's feeling. Ah, maybe almost everybody.

0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 1>Off the top of my head, Bruce Carter, if he's

0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:57.680
<v Speaker 1>healthy enough to play, he'll play. How have you settled

0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:00.720
<v Speaker 1>on a quarterback plan for Thursday? And so what do

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 1>you planning? I settled on a quarterback plan for Thursday. Um,

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:15.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll probably play Petty and uh, well what each get

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>a half? Uh that's on the side of Yet I'll

0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:21.480
<v Speaker 1>try to even it out, and I want to see

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:23.840
<v Speaker 1>how I'm not who was running the ball more. I

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:25.760
<v Speaker 1>like to get him a couple of passes then, so,

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>but I'll try to even And that was the best

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:33.400
<v Speaker 1>I can had the decision to not play Jane on Thursday,

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>I guess goes to the convention I guess, and that plan,

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Uh just just wanted to keep him healthy. I guess, yeah,

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:43.600
<v Speaker 1>I like mostly for you want to keep most of

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 1>you guys healthy, but you still want to take a

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>look at the other two guys as well. So how

0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:59.360
<v Speaker 1>do you how do you characterize the quarterbacks? That was

0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:01.960
<v Speaker 1>the four guy? Is that is there's still competition for

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>spots or you think you're leading quick keeping all four? Now, well,

0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't laying until I letting all four go. When

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:12.200
<v Speaker 1>it started, I said there was a possibility that we

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>might keep them all four good football players. We can

0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>keep all four, you know. I was just a matter

0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 1>of battling with the other positions. So that's still up

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.360
<v Speaker 1>for grabs, and we have to wait till after this

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>game see how that plays out. Do you think Darren

0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Lee will get some time in this game? Let's just

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:44.280
<v Speaker 1>play something? Yeah, all the young guys a player. What

0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 1>do you hope you see from Hackenburg Thursday night? That

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 1>was a second would be a second time plan. Just

0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:55.359
<v Speaker 1>get some comfort level and the command the offense, and

0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, make less mistakes and he made the week before.

0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:08.120
<v Speaker 1>How is there any concern with Brandon's injury at all?

0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>The hips Oh, there's you wouldn't have any any additional questions. Yeah,

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>decision um that Gina wouldn't play on Thursday. I'd like

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 1>to say more of the other two guys. So Lanzina

0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.400
<v Speaker 1>were handed at sance, so I want to know two

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>guys play a full amount of time. So it's to

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>be a perfect up with something to do it. When

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 1>did you decide? When did out of side? Probably after

0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:54.760
<v Speaker 1>the last game. M how can you handle this week

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>in terms of starting the Cincinnati work versus um, you know,

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 1>look at do with the young guys for Thursday. It's

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.760
<v Speaker 1>hard to kind of try to prepare for two games

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:07.640
<v Speaker 1>at once, and you give the vets and a certain

0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:10.040
<v Speaker 1>amount of place, and then you give the rookies and

0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:12.920
<v Speaker 1>the young guys another certain amount of place and trying

0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 1>to move forward from there and other game plans aren't

0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 1>very complicated this week, so they should be able to

0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:19.600
<v Speaker 1>go out and play fast and see what we're gonna do.

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:22.120
<v Speaker 1>At the same time, you've got to make sure those

0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:25.239
<v Speaker 1>guys dance shape the vetrons that are gonna start next week,

0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 1>most of them that are some of them that aren't

0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>going to play, and make sure they're in safe and

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 1>getting an early start on the game next week with

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.800
<v Speaker 1>a quick turnaround in week two. Does the coaching staff

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 1>start looking at Buffalo yet? Or how do you handle that?

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:46.160
<v Speaker 1>We're digually turn around the second week. There was not

0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:48.239
<v Speaker 1>some of that homework while we're in trying to camp

0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 1>as well. Do you guys have tough decisions to make

0:04:57.120 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 1>a wide receiver there? We do? I have a tough decisions,

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 1>might go a few spots, A man swim, Sue plays well.

0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:08.559
<v Speaker 1>Do you think you might get all the cut stuck?

0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:13.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry said it again. Do you think you might

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.159
<v Speaker 1>get them all all the cuts done on Friday? Or

0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 1>do you justicipate a two day process? I mean you

0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.120
<v Speaker 1>like to, but I'm not gonna sit here and say

0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:23.840
<v Speaker 1>we get them all down Friday. There may be some

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:30.719
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday if you don't. Do you see a scenario

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:35.040
<v Speaker 1>TIW where you can keep the three rookie wide receivers Jalen,

0:05:35.680 --> 0:05:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Robbie Atron. I mean it's possible they've all had there

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:49.839
<v Speaker 1>are flashes and games. It's possible Sheldon wouldn't play his game.

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Would you would be an anticipation of his distension to

0:05:54.320 --> 0:06:03.640
<v Speaker 1>get more time? Now? M E.
