1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Why did you go so much more single high in

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,480
Speaker 1: the second half when it seems like you're too high?

3
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Was working pretty well in the first up? Okay, was

4
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 1: working well? Or you don't want the last game? Last game?

5
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: Oh um, I mean, I shoot, I can't I can't

6
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: even remember. I mean probably the flow of the game,

7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: just you know, whether we're single high and then move

8
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: the one high or too high whatever it may be.

9
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: But you know, just normally just mix it up, just

10
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: trying to mix it up during the game, just based

11
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: on what we think is best. Your pressure rate was

12
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: really low in that game. How much of that was

13
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 1: what you guys were trying to do and how much

14
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 1: was it just just talking in terms of bringing people

15
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: or you're talking about like or pressure getting to the quarterback.

16
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,919
Speaker 1: You're saying, you know, I'm I'm trying to distinguish oh

17
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: in terms of well went into like what what do

18
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: you look at that and say, Okay, here's why you know, well,

19
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: I mean each week, like when I'm looking at Dallas

20
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: right now, you know, one of the best offenses obviously

21
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: in the league. Right now, you know you try to

22
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: figure out, Okay, who are you gonna try to take away?

23
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: And how you're gonna try to take away or limit

24
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: what they do. So, like the quarterbacks obviously good, they

25
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 1: got good back, they got golfens line, they got good

26
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: skilled people. So any game plan we're trying to work

27
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: and try to manipulate. You know, obviously you want to

28
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: get more pressure here, you want to get more pressure there.

29
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: Whether it's four, bring guys. But you know what we

30
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: try to do is mix it up, you know, mix

31
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: it up. Sometimes it looks like we're not bringing five,

32
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: or maybe we're bringing forward, we're bringing six. But like

33
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: usually if you look at it, you know, from week

34
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: to week, you know we've mixed it up in terms

35
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: of just bringing the you know, we just decide what's

36
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: best for that game, trying to figure out who who

37
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: to bringing stuff like that. Same thing we'll try to

38
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: do this week against Dallas. But yeah, I know this.

39
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta affect the quarterback somehow. You gotta

40
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: affect the offensive line somehow, and that's the goal. Did

41
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: you think you affected to put it back enough? And Newellas,

42
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: I mean, we're wanna keep talking about New Orleans, which

43
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: is cool, But I'm gonna tell you which is cool.

44
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: It's cool but I'm really focused on Dallas and it

45
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: means New York Giants Dallas week. And I know unfortunately

46
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: for you guys the Thursday right now, But like I mean,

47
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: I'm getting text messages from all the guys I know

48
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: that played here, like this is New York Giants Dallas week,

49
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: and I can't be any more focused on them. I'm not.

50
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: I'm just apologizing for that. Like I'm worried about this

51
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: offensive line. You look up here at this depth chart, Cooper, Smith, Williams,

52
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: Martin Steel, Shultz, Lamb Wilson, Prescott, Elliott. Now that's just

53
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 1: the starters. Pollard. Look at all these guys up here.

54
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,119
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a lot to think about right now.

55
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: Most of my focus is on Dallas. Partners is gonna

56
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: be to get more pressure this week against someone like that.

57
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: I just think we gotta we gotta do whatever is

58
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: necessary to affect Prescott this week. I think, like again,

59
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: where you're gonna compare it to last week or two

60
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: weeks before the year before, We're gonna try to do

61
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: us best for the game planning for this week and

62
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: hopefully it's enough to win the game. So you got

63
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: to hit it a little bit you know around here

64
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: there's or now that now is fifteen regular season games

65
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: and two Cowboys games. You know, how how big is

66
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: this one? And you know, can you sense that in

67
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: the building? And that's how the building. I can just

68
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: speak for myself. I'll never forget my first game, regular

69
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: season game as a Giants coach, and it was against

70
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. It was a four o'clock game, and I

71
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: remember JPP standed next to me during the national anthem

72
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: and he said, he said, this ain't this ain't the Jets.

73
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: He said, he said something to me, right, he said,

74
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,119
Speaker 1: like because I was in New England for my whole time.

75
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: And I was like, I said, it's a little different,

76
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: but it was a little different. So I always remember

77
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: that moment and how cool he looked. He looked at me,

78
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: he was so cool about after the national anthem, he said,

79
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: a little different, that's what he said. He said, a

80
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: little different, isn't it? I said, a little different? And

81
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: then then you know, we won the game at the

82
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: end of the game and he had a great game.

83
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: I just remember that and I looked at him. I

84
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: was like, I said, you're a little different back he said,

85
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: I told you just Cowboys Giants week. So I mean

86
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: I remember that that stands out to me, and that

87
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: was a good memory. That was a good memory, that

88
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: first one. So I'm looking forwardunately. Um, you know, I

89
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: know it's important to the people around here. I know

90
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: it's important to the fans around here. So you know

91
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: it's important for us to prepare and get ready for

92
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: the game. And I'm looking forward to the challenge. You

93
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: said you're getting about the money is really telling you

94
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: that you know better win. Luckily, for me, I have

95
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: friends and mentors that are very honest with me. So

96
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: I get I get you know, they're good luck. Sometimes

97
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: I get some criticism, sometimes I get some advice. So

98
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: I mean the people involved with football, yeah, I mean

99
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: I got I got a lot of people that are

100
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: really honest with me, and I appreciate it. I appreciate

101
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: that about them. So I've always to start on defense.

102
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: You gotta stuff to run. I mean, let I don't

103
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: want to go back to last week, but can you

104
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: afford to give up to und a hundred and sixties

105
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: something like yards or whatever. I have an old line coach.

106
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: That's never what we're looking to do. I promise you that.

107
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: So obviously. You know, we got a lot of stuff

108
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: to work on. Um, that's what we're gonna work on

109
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: today out there on the practice field. You know, got

110
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: pads on today, Gonna work on that. So it's about

111
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: you know, getting off a block, you know, getting a

112
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: good edge and stuff like that. So like, no, no,

113
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: you can't afford to do that, and you know you

114
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: can't make a living doing that. Let's do it that way.

115
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: So we got to do a better job stopping the run.

116
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: Does Julian just go in for peppers if you can't

117
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: play or you gotta talk to Joe about all that stuff.

118
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: I mean, again the injury thing, I don't really get

119
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: into that. But like in terms of people, we got

120
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: so many guys out on the field working at are

121
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: interchangeable at the different spots. So you know, I can't

122
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 1: I can't give you any idea on that right now.

123
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: This is really that first day of really getting after today.

124
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: So that is it so far ago? I mean you

125
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: just went back to the two sixteen but last year

126
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,799
Speaker 1: in Dallas, the way that game ended, Uh, I remember

127
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: back then your guys felt like he gave one a way.

128
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: Do you have to remind your guys about what happened

129
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: there are you definitely watched that game. I mean you

130
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: see the Evan floor of the game. I think it

131
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: was seventeen the three. Then they get the ball and

132
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: you really saw like again I know coach McCarthy from

133
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: my time at Green Bay, and you really saw him

134
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: like okay, let's get the ball, is like and then

135
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: that drive like he bust like we we had the

136
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: formation leverage, but then like he snuck through for about

137
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: eight yards and that really got them going. And all

138
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden in the seventeen ten and I think

139
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 1: they made a play on deep like however, the floor

140
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: of the game went and that's you know, so to me,

141
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: like when you get back to the question about the

142
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: run game, this team they go as the offensive line

143
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: and the running back go you I mean, I get

144
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: all the skill guys and stuff like that, but the

145
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: challenges up front. So yeah, that game is a great

146
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: game to go back to and learn lessons from because

147
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: once they got the run game going, that's when they

148
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: were able to get back into the game and then

149
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: they eventually ended up winning the game. How how you

150
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: slowing down? Um? You know, mix of mix of coverages,

151
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: mix of affecting the quarterback. But I mean the thing

152
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: about them, they moved. They're moving those guys around. You know,

153
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: whether they're in the slot, they're out number one. I

154
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: think one thing that's um that could help us is

155
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: make sure take care of the deep part of the field.

156
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: Maybe get some hits on them when they're um down

157
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: from at the line of scrimmage. But he changing it

158
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: up on him. I mean, they're pretty dynamic. They're pretty

159
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: dynamic players. So you know, we gotta challenge ahead of us.

160
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: How about Ze how much does he look like the

161
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: running back he was three or four years ago? Now

162
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: that guy. I mean, I've never questioned whether I get whatever.

163
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: I mean. He's a good player. I mean, he's a

164
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: good player. He sees it all Um, the way he

165
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: presses the line of scrimmage and makes his cuts, you know,

166
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,239
Speaker 1: you have to be decisive. He's truly one of thirty

167
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: two when you talk about that. This guy knows how

168
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: to carry the ball. Um, he knows how to manipulate

169
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: his blockers or use his blockers the right way. He's

170
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: he could see you got eyes of me, and again

171
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: he could see the backside. He's running front side. He

172
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: could see the backside if you overlap too much and

173
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: he's cutting back there. I think he's pretty dynamic. But

174
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: the thing I'm noticing about him is how hard he's running.

175
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 1: And he's doing a good job of getting extra yards

176
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: like he always has. But I mean he's a good player.

177
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: Good players to go against. Smart I mean, I don't

178
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: know him personally, and but I know Um, I know

179
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: coach McCarthy and coach McCarthy spoke highly of him. I

180
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: mean smart Um as a play caller. You can see

181
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: he understands defenses. That's what I like. So he's trying

182
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: to attack your weaknesses. So you know, he's playing the

183
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know exactly what he's doing, but

184
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: playing the percentages of what you're gonna be in try

185
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: to attack the weaknesses. You know, he has his coverage beaters,

186
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: he has his stuff intended to, you know, try to

187
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: manipulate the edge. I think he does a good job

188
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: but that stuff, I mean, he does a good job

189
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: of changing it up throughout the field zones, you know,

190
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: whether it's backed up, the middle of the field, fringe.

191
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: I think he does a good job of doing that.

192
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: And then most importantly, like how most offensive coordinators are judged.

193
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: He gets the ball out quickly to the guys who

194
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: make plays. So you know, whether you look at the

195
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: percentage of the quick passing game or how are they're

196
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: getting the ball to Zeke the guys who are productive

197
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: with the ball, that's who he's getting the ball to.

198
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: You know, whether it's based on downing distance basis on

199
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: where they're on the field. I mean, that's that's how

200
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: I measure if a coordinator knows what he's doing in

201
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: terms of that how they get the ball to those guys.

202
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: Put do you put any extra emphasis on tackling after

203
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: a game like Sunday? I think you put an actual

204
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: emphasis on tackling because of the level of skill guys

205
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: they have here, like Cooper, Um, Zeke, all these guys,

206
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 1: I mean even Dak, they're all tough to tackle. So

207
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 1: you gotta put an emphasis on that, no question, no question.

208
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: That time one, what do you see and you're not

209
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: preparing against him, but what do you see from like

210
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: the Parsons, what kind of a player? I haven't I

211
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: mean I haven't. I haven't really watched him. I just

212
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 1: saw I saw him in college. You talk about the linebacker, correct,

213
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: Um I know he's fast, big fast, He's bigger than

214
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: you think he's fast. Um. I heard that he's playing

215
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,199
Speaker 1: different spots, playing on the edge, playing stack, different things,

216
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: can cover, can rush. So I mean happy this. I'm

217
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 1: always happy to see guys have success. You know, met

218
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: him one time at the combine and not at the

219
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: combine at um at Penn State. Good kids, just happy

220
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: he's having success. So
