1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,559
Speaker 1: Good come out of this scheme against the Ramso and

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: with forward to the Patriots. What is there one particular

3
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: episode of that game or situation or just overall umbrella

4
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: of something that went wrong You really have put the

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: focus in on correcting.

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

7
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 3: I think it was situations more than one thing. I

8
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 3: think it's a culmination. It hasn't really ever been one

9
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 3: thing or one coverage. It's kind of been a culmination

10
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: of things, and and it just hasn't been good enough overall.

11
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 3: You know, it's not one person or one cover, you know,

12
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 3: like I said, it's just kind of been we be

13
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 3: a little better here, a little better there. And as always,

14
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 3: I always look at myself first, and I should. I

15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 3: mean it's my defense and I'm the coordinator, but I

16
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 3: take responsibility of that and I think we just all

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 3: feel that way. That's a cool thing all as coaches

18
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 3: got to coach better and players have that feel that

19
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 3: challenge as well for themselves.

20
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: Maybe. So any update on.

21
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: What's that?

22
00:00:58,720 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 3: Oh, Curtis?

23
00:00:59,440 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 4: Oh?

24
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 3: I yeah, I don't know. Thank you. The loss of

25
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 3: Hartrave due to your defensive line. I mean, he's he's one,

26
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 3: he is a great player, but he was having a

27
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 3: he's had an awesome camp and awesome offseason and really

28
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 3: that game he was playing really really good too. So

29
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 3: it's tough because he's such a good player. I mean,

30
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 3: this is a time when guys have to step up.

31
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: I know it's cliche, but the league is littered with

32
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 3: guys that have been backups and you know, get their

33
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 3: chance and play really well. It's just understanding who we're losing.

34
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 3: He's it's gonna be a tough shoes to fill, but

35
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 3: you guys have to step up, going.

36
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 4: Back and talking about you know, the not one thing,

37
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 4: not one player, not one situation. Is it difficult to

38
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 4: make all the pieces fit together when there are so

39
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 4: many new faces on that defense, a lot of new

40
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 4: personel No.

41
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 3: I think it's a it's a challenge. It's just you know,

42
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: we're close. I think we feel it. You can be

43
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 3: frustrated at times, but you know, we gotta we gotta

44
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: fix it and we will. Which teams out to you

45
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 3: when you watch I'm by replacing our game.

46
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 4: Are you looking at just you know, one person or do.

47
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: You've envisioned that happen to be kind of multiple guys.

48
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: That will Yeah, I think we're looking at a bunch

49
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 3: of guys, and you know, Jordan Ellie has been rotating

50
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 3: in and so does Kevin. So those guys particular, you know,

51
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: you think of it to step up and and then

52
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 3: it goes from there. You know, we've got guys on

53
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 3: practice squad, so I think it's just a matter of

54
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 3: you know, getting guys training. That's why you have practice

55
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,119
Speaker 3: squad so that they're trained up and you know, see

56
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: who can step in and make plays for.

57
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 4: Us or gross Matos moving inside too, or do you

58
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 4: maybe not have enough edge.

59
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 3: Depth he had, He's done that, you know, certain situations

60
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: in his history which we've you know, we've talked about,

61
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 3: and they're.

62
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: Down defense in particular. Why do you feel that's been

63
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 2: an issue?

64
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 3: Just get getting off the field. Like I said, it's

65
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 3: not one thing it's been. It's been tough. It is

66
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 3: frustrating at times. I mean because sometimes it's really good.

67
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: It's just I think stuff's been kind of inconsistent all around.

68
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 3: You know, sometimes the run game, we hit it up

69
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 3: really good, or we get pressure. I think overall, I

70
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 3: just think we have high expations. We all do. The players,

71
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 3: the coaches myself well understand how it's supposed to look here,

72
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 3: and I think it's it's not one thing. We just

73
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 3: consistently got to get better. Move didn't come off the field,

74
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 3: which I think has only happened one another time.

75
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: In his career. Is that a reflection of the edge

76
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 2: depth or.

77
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 3: No, I don't think it's a reflection to edge depth.

78
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 3: I think, you know, and talking to Nick, we'd like

79
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 3: to spell him more. I mean, if you really look

80
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 3: at the first three games, you really have a lot

81
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: of plays and I think he was kind of into

82
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: the game, and you know, it was felt good. And

83
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 3: you know, because Serak has always connected with him and

84
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 3: he likes to rotate the guys and take care of Nick,

85
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 3: and there just haven't been as many defensive plays I

86
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 3: think so far in the first few games, and you know,

87
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 3: Nick was into and I think we just, you know,

88
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 3: we got to protect him and be smart about it

89
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 3: so that we keep him as fresh as possible for

90
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 3: the longest period of time. But I think he just,

91
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 3: you know, felt like he was he was good. If

92
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 3: Nick's good, then he's going to get a lot of reps.

93
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 4: And watched the Patriots offense on the film, what what

94
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 4: stands out to you about them?

95
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: Well, they can they can really run the ball. I

96
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 3: mean they're they're aggressive, they're physical, they have a very

97
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: good plan, they're very well coached, two really good running backs,

98
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 3: a line that knows how to block. They have good scheme,

99
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 3: and then Brissette really is a good fit in that

100
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 3: system and how he performs and how he plays, and

101
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 3: you know he sees the game right. He protects the ball,

102
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: he can make the throws that he needs to make,

103
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 3: and he can move really well. I think they're just

104
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: a tough team, reflection of the coach and the coaching

105
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 3: and respect for those guys. I mean, they're really big

106
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 3: backs that can cut, they can run. It's just overall

107
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 3: physical team.

108
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 4: When you got a rough patch like this, do you

109
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 4: do you sit back and think we're going to try

110
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 4: some new things and shape things up, or you have

111
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 4: to guard against that.

112
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: It's better.

113
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 3: I think it just it depends depends on what you're

114
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 3: doing good. You got to look at yourself and then

115
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 3: also it's that week who you're playing, so you got

116
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 3: to evaluate what are we doing, what can we be better.

117
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: At a lot of times you can pinpoint that you

118
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 3: don't want to just go off the reservation because you

119
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 3: know you know who you are, you know what you

120
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 3: want this defense to be. But then also how does

121
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 3: that tie into who we're playing? You know, the most

122
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 3: important thing is how do we win this game? So

123
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: it's not so much you know, you're looking at what

124
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 3: you've done and what needs to be better, and you

125
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 3: identify it, and I think we talk about it, We

126
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 3: identify it, and then all right, is that going to

127
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 3: affect How much does that affect this game? What do

128
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: we need to do specifically to win this game and

129
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 3: beat this team?

130
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 4: Drake may do you watch just in case they decide

131
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 4: to make the quarterbacks?

132
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you watch them both. I mean we've seen a

133
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 3: lot of tape. I mean there's only been a few games,

134
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 3: and those guys did play in the preseason, so you know,

135
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 3: you look at the scheme and of what they've done

136
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 3: in the past. But he's a talented quarterback too.

137
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 2: Can you talk about the process of calling defenses in

138
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 2: a game when you're doing for the first time and

139
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: how you prepare to do that in the difference? Is

140
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 2: it faster? Is it?

141
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 3: I think a lot of guys a lot of the

142
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 3: preparation is done now, it's done during the week, and

143
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 3: you kind of prepare for the situations. There are tweaks

144
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 3: that you do have to Sometimes you can pre think, okay, this,

145
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 3: if this happens, we're ready to go to this that

146
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 3: you might have some tweaks in game. That's why you

147
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 3: always hear people talk about halftime adjustments. Sometimes you have those,

148
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 3: sometimes you don't. Sometimes you don't need them necessarily, or

149
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 3: you decide that you don't, you know, need to have

150
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 3: something called that you have on the sheet based on

151
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: what they're deciding to do, and you're just kind of

152
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 3: figuring each other out and seeing how it's working within

153
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 3: the game. But I think primarily most of the work

154
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 3: is done throughout the week, you know, and.

155
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 2: It replicates it like before you get into a game,

156
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 2: is there anything that the.

157
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 3: Oh not really preseason games are cool and then me
