1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: All right, thanks Stacy. UM, good to uh, you know, 2 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: really good to have a uh, you know, the exposure 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: we had yesterday to the Giants, it was certainly a 4 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: great learning experience for all of us. We we you know, 5 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: did a lot of things. UM. You know that that 6 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: can really benefit our team going forward, both fundamentally and 7 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: and some schematic things. We'll we'll get into a little 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: more situational football UM today, which you know we haven't 9 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: um obviously had very much of in the preseason games 10 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: and probably won't in this last game, but it'll be 11 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 1: very important during the season, so it'll give us a 12 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 1: good chance to work on that. UM. But now, I 13 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: thought our our players came out and competed well yesterday. UM. 14 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: You know, the Giants gave us some problems. There's some 15 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: things we definitely need to correct and and learn from. 16 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: All the way across the board. We had a couple 17 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: of coaching good coaching situations come up as well that 18 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, we need to do a better job on 19 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: and I need to do a better job on. So UM, 20 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 1: there's really a you know, another good day for us 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: in terms of moving our team forward and and getting 22 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: some valuable experience and and um, you know against the 23 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: quality team. They're very well coached obviously Joe on special 24 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: teams and Jason pat you know, they'll do a great 25 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: job and their assistants and so they're they're you know, 26 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: a team that has, um, you know, some some tough 27 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: schemes and and do some things that you know, create 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: some problems for us that we haven't seen, need to see. Uh, 29 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: and we'll we'll definitely learn from so um you know 30 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: looking forward today, uh as well as and agem in 31 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: terms of pushing our team forward. And um, you know, 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: we'll have a lot of good film to look out 33 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: this afternoon and tonight we'll open up questions. We'll serve 34 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: still need it? Ben? Thank you. Here's all right, We're 35 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: gonna go to Mike Reeves. Fall by means still we 36 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: got penalty on Ben. What are we assessing fifteen? Yeah? 37 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: I think that's a media that's a media decision media too. Okay, 38 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: all right, all right, UM, So Mac's heavy workload stood 39 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: out yesterday just so you had a lot of seemed 40 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: like he had a lot of snaps, a lot of 41 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: learning experience with Cam expected back today. How does that 42 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: affect sort of what Mac will do? Today. Yeah, all 43 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks all good, all get work today. I mean 44 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: I think everybody got work yesterday. I think all the 45 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 1: players that were out there. Um, I don't think Quinn kick, 46 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: Nick kick yesterday. I think Quinn will kick today. But yeah, 47 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: we you know, all the players that are out there 48 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: that all get work. H m hm, especially still fall 49 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: by horn of Bill Horrier. Oh goody good. Um will 50 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: Cam be back out there today? Yes? And um, you know, 51 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: with his absence so to speak, he said it was 52 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: a good opportunity for mac Jones. You said it certainly 53 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: was in the in person press conference. How did you 54 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: see him take advantage of the extra role in the 55 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: extra snaps that he got. Yeah, Well, as I just 56 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: got through saying, I think that all the all the 57 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: players and the coaches for that matter, that participated yesterday, 58 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: Um learn, you know, I had good learning experiences. Um. 59 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: You know, we did some things well, there's certainly some 60 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: things that we need to correct and a couple of 61 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: chase cases just make adjustments too. Um and so that's 62 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, that's part of football too, like that that 63 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: comes up a lot. So, um, you know, there there 64 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: are a number of things we need to do better. Um. 65 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: But hopefully we can learn from some of the mistakes 66 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: that we made yesterday collectively as a team. UM. And 67 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: you know we all we all had some so that 68 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: includes everybody that we can correct those and and not 69 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: repeat him again today and I go out and execute 70 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: things a little bit better. The next question and feel 71 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: very followed by Mike Chrias. Hey, Bill, I just had 72 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: a question about something that James White told us yesterday. 73 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: This may sound like a stupid question, but we'll ask 74 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: it anyway. He said something along the lines of, you know, 75 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: Max has done a good job of controlling the huddle, 76 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: and I just want to ask you what does that mean? 77 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: And as a coach, how do you engage that? How 78 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: important is that to see from players play in that position? Uh? Yeah, well, 79 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: I mean I think that's really something that James could, 80 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: you know, expand on a little bit. I'm not sure 81 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: exactly what part of that he was referring to, So 82 00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: I don't want to put any words in his mouth, 83 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: um or speak for him. I certainly wouldn't do that. 84 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: But you know, all the signal callers, whether the quarterbacks 85 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: or defensive signal callers or the personal protector on the 86 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: punt team or you know, whoever that is, and whatever 87 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: the play is or a situation, you know, there's a 88 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: responsibility that comes with that in terms of getting things organized, 89 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: being aware of the situation, you know, making sure that 90 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: on certain plays there are might be one or two 91 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: guys in particular that um, you know, have a key 92 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: role in that play, just by the way that it's called, 93 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: by the play that it's called, and so you know, 94 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: as a signal call, you want to make sure that 95 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: that that person for sure knows what the call is 96 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: or maybe it's an added tag or an added word 97 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: that changes things a little bit, and make sure that 98 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: the people that are involved in that, you know, get 99 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: it and you know, and maybe there's something that we're 100 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: looking for and that's why we've tagged it, and you know, 101 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: as a reminder and things like that. So all those 102 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: things come with that position. Um, you know, awareness, communication, 103 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: and clarification sometimes of things that are that are happening 104 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: that everybody you know should be familiar with or in 105 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: some cases most of them might be aware of, but 106 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: sometimes it's good to remind everybody or like I said, specifically, 107 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: make sure that the key people involved in something, you know, 108 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: have it right, because that's really where the focus of 109 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: the of the call is. M Thanks Bill, Yep, you're welcome. 110 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: I'll go back to make these. So I think you 111 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: might agree that over the years you've had your players 112 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: mostly play in the preseason with the idea that playing 113 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: is what gets you prepared for playing games, like the 114 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: way to prepare to play football is to play. And 115 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: I'm curious if there's a where that came from, Like 116 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: where was there a coach in your past that you 117 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: know imparted that on you or where did that approach 118 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: come from? Pretty much all the coaches I worked for, 119 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: I would say I saw that, you know, and go 120 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: back to Marchabrota for Zano um Per coach barselves, you know, 121 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: in many other coaches that I talked to, you know, 122 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: we I talked to other coaches about that and just 123 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: kind of get what they're you know, kind of what 124 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: they're thinking is on on things like that in preseason 125 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: and so forth. So again, every situation is a little 126 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: bit different. When you practice against a team for a 127 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: couple of days, that's a little different than not practicing 128 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: against them U or going back to a scrimmage and 129 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: scrimmage is that we had back in and that was 130 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: a long time ago. It's no point you're talking about that, um, 131 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: But it's you know again, it basically it's doing what's 132 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: best for the team and doing what's best for each 133 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: individual player. Sometimes that's a conflict. What's best for the 134 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: player might not be best for the team or vice versa, 135 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: and so then you have to make a decision as 136 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: you know, how to manage that. But that's yeah, that's 137 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: that's really what it comes down to. But as you said, 138 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: you prepare to play by plane if you can and 139 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: if it's the right thing to do. Sometimes, um, there 140 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: may be other considerations that would override that, and and 141 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: that's maybe you don't feel that's the best decision, but 142 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: generally speaking, that's I think that I agree with that. 143 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: I think that's what he should do. And then, um, 144 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: I know this isn't directly tied to today with the Giants, 145 00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: UM colleague writing a story on Dean P's just and 146 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: I said, if the time is right, I'll try to 147 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: jump in and ask your background with Dean and what 148 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, imprep what drew you to him when you 149 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: hired him, and just sort of what makes him a 150 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: good coach, that was something you'd entertain this morning. Yeah, 151 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: I'm better if we deal with that separately, Mike, so 152 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: we don't tie everybody else on that, and there's any 153 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: other questions about our current team, I'll handle that separate 154 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: with you on the side. We'll go. Next question, Chriss 155 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 1: gas buff but Dean Shawn is. Hey, Bell, I hope 156 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: you're doing well today. Um, I just want to ask 157 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: you in your mind, at what point do you have 158 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: to sort of transition here from the spirited quarterback competition 159 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: to having a starter, giving them the majority of the 160 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: reps and getting them prepared for Miami and to be 161 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: the starter throughout the rest of the year. Yeah. I 162 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: don't have a timetable on that, Chris, so can't can't 163 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: tell you. I mean, do you feel like I know 164 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: you said you don't have a timetable, but do you 165 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: feel like that's something that's coming up soon here as 166 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 1: we get to the end of a training camp. You'll 167 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: approach that or make that decision at the end of 168 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 1: training camp here? Uh? Yeah, I'm not sure, not sure 169 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: exactly how that will go. Got it? Thanks? Next question, 170 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: Dan Johnson fallback pet winner? All Right, Bill s Dan, 171 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: How are you doing good? Dan? How's it going? Okay, 172 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: I've missed you guys. Um, so if you could just 173 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: help me clear up. I haven't been obviously with you 174 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: guys every day and amaze, this is actually working, you 175 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: can hear me. But let me disunderstanding on the on 176 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: the Newton thing. I don't quanityet. Newton was going for 177 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: you for five days and it was characterized as a misunderstanding. 178 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: Was he told he could go or did he not 179 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: know the rule? Or did you not know the rule? Yeah, 180 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: don't really have anything to add Dan, your release a statement. 181 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: I think that covered as the early as as we 182 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: can without you know, getting into a lengthy thing. So 183 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: let's leave it at that. Okay, it's just for us. 184 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: It allows the possibility that he either went without permission 185 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: or someone didn't know the rule, which is very unlike 186 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: you guys, and I know it's important to be a 187 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: practice and he's a pivotal guy in your team. So 188 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: it just leaves us a little bit out there as 189 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: to the motivation for why he did this and if 190 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: he knew and if you knew, or if he went 191 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: against team rules. No, he didn't go against team rules, 192 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: but there was a misunderstanding, and it's exactly what I 193 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: said it was in the statement, so he was unaware 194 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: he would lose the five days. It's exactly what I 195 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: said it was in the statement. Okay, thank you. Two 196 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: final questions, Pat Minnard and Chris Bryant, he both Hey, Bill, 197 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: when did you first install the hills at practice, either 198 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: here or elsewhere? And what do you think the benefit 199 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: of it is? We saw your judge take his players 200 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: over there and make you speek yesterday. I mean, that's 201 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 1: a training technique that's been used for quite a while. UM. 202 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: I had a hill in Cleveland, um Rand Hills as 203 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: a player, um ran Rand Hills. Where there are hills, 204 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: and yeah, has has certain training benefits. There are there 205 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: are multiple ways to train, UM, but that gives you 206 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: certain benefits. And when that's combined with other things, other things, 207 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: other methods of training, I think it just helps build 208 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: the overall conditioning of the athletes. UM. And there are 209 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: there are multiple ways of training. You know, on a hill, um, 210 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: but you know, ultimately there there are a lot of 211 00:12:54,920 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: different conditioning factors that a team needs. And and I 212 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: think that that helps us prepare in you know, in 213 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: some areas not all, Um, so does that does that 214 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: help with like soft tissue hamstrings, stuff like that, like 215 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: in your legs. Well, it's hard it. I mean, nobody's 216 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: gonna be at top speed running up a hill, so 217 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: there's there's not as much of a speed element to 218 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: it as there is a you know, working against um 219 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: the incline and again running in different directions and so forth, 220 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,839 Speaker 1: the number the incline again, the type of running that 221 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: you do on the hill and so forth. I mean, 222 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: there's a lot of different ways to train, and I 223 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 1: think there's value in uh in in all those as 224 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: long as they're combined with other methods of training strength, power, endurance, 225 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: explosion speed. So it's it's a combination of things. That's 226 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: just one way. Thanks, welcome. That's question Chris Frry, Morning Bill. 227 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: How are you? Chris? I wanted to ask you about 228 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: your linebacking play so far in training camp and what 229 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: you've seen specifically from from Bentley and Jude on and 230 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: how you feel there and their explosiveness, their their reads 231 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: can can benefit you schematically. Well, they're both smart football players, um. 232 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: They both have a good level of experience and you know, 233 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: can do multiple things, can think quickly, communicate well, and 234 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: you have good instincts and a good feel for the 235 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: game along with you know, many other members of that 236 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: group as well. Um, certainly Highs you know is in 237 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: there and Kyle and you know, those guys have played 238 00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: a lot of football and are very very instinct and 239 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: you know have worked well together to try to you know, 240 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: there's a lot of playing off each other at those 241 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: positions as as there is it's safety, uh, you know 242 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: where there are a lot of things going on in 243 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: a in a pretty small area and who fits where, 244 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: who's got who? What happens when they you know, come 245 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: at us from different um, you know, different positions, different leverage, 246 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: different angles, and does that change um the way we 247 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: well it does change it, but you know how it 248 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: changes the way that we fit in the running game 249 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: or cover the receivers and you know things like that. 250 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: So but yeah, those two guys are are good. It's 251 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: really a good group. They they work well together. They 252 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: can handle a lot. Um, they can handle a lot 253 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: pretty quickly, and a lot of times they can make 254 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: an adjustment before you know a coach can. Okay, you 255 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: know it's what we're doing and hey, we got this like, 256 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: let's do it this way. And before you could even 257 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: tell them that, UM, you know, hey, let's do it 258 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: this way, they are already as solved the problem and 259 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, figured out a you know, a better way 260 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: because they can all kind of see the same thing. 261 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: So as long as they all see the same thing 262 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: than that, that really makes it much easier to um, 263 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: you know, make adjustments and make make subtle changes that 264 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: you know, help us perform better. Enhancing the roster, there 265 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: was so much focus on a tight ends wide receiver. UM. 266 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: Obviously Mac in the draft. Do you do you feel 267 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: that the acquisition of Judon and bringing Van Noy back 268 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: have as significant a positional impact and upgrading the rosters 269 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: It's about anything you did in the offseason. You know, 270 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't know about ranking everything, but those players are 271 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: are good players. They definitely are helping us. I'm glad 272 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: we have them. They help our football team in a 273 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: number of ways. And UM, and I'm glad we have him. 274 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: So Judean has been a pleasure to coach, hard working guy, 275 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: really instinctive. UM as his Kyle, I mean, i'd more 276 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: background with Kyle, but you know, Kyle is a very 277 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: instinctive player that can you know, play multiple positions and 278 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: he can handle a lot of volume or responsibilities without 279 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 1: you know, an inordinate amount of repetitions or teaching or 280 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: that kind of thing. Like every player, he needs to 281 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, rep the things that he does. But um, 282 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: he his experience and just overall understanding of what the 283 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 1: purpose of a technique is or a call and how 284 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: to get it done is you know, is very good. 285 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: Um and high Towers and Bentley, I mean they're you 286 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: know right there there too. They those guys are really 287 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: they're really smart football players that understand a lot more 288 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: than what their position is. And sometimes it's might be 289 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: a little harder for them, but they can all understand 290 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: how it makes it a little bit easier for somebody else. 291 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: And and that's a really good, you know, working relationship 292 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: in that in that group. Thanks both, Yeah, you're welcome. 293 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: Christ
