1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Look not good at any phase of the game. Felt 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: like we had a good game ex as those wise, 3 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: we just didn't go out there and execute. And that's 4 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: what it comes down to. Every Sunday, I told the 5 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,879 Speaker 1: guys this is NFL football, this is what it is, 6 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,240 Speaker 1: and we just have to be better. So the guys 7 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: would be off next few days. Told 'em to, you know, 8 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 1: get their minds right, get their bodies right, and then 9 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: come back and be ready to work. Got a bonus Monday, 10 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: got another good UH team that we're gonna go against 11 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: UH next week. UH just gotta be better to rid 12 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: your one from your assessment of the offensive line in 13 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 1: the pretty season, how we can say they ruined since then? 14 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: Yet it all and you never reflect another bone game. Well, 15 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 1: I thought the offensive line today UH had a hard time, 16 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: had a hard time. There were times earlier in the 17 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: game where the pockets looked pretty clean. But as a 18 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: game we're on similar to last week, you know, started 19 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: falling apart as far as the protections. And it's not 20 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: only knowing you know how to do it, it's also 21 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: knowing what to do. And I would also say we 22 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: had some injuries up front that you know, the next 23 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: man has to be ready to go, man to run. 24 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: Is this a mental physical breakdown? What would you contribute 25 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: both tonight? Look, I the first thing, I gotta look 26 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: at myself in the mirror and make sure that you 27 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: know I did everything I could to to get the 28 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: guys ready to go, and you know, base on the 29 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: score today, I need to do more. But going back 30 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: to what I said earlier, just got to hit the 31 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: reset buttons NFL football and we have to get better, 32 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: you know, kind of drink in a piano. I just 33 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: thought it was an opportunity, a good opportunity for him 34 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: to go out there with UH, with the ones and 35 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: and UH put a few drives together. He moved the ball. 36 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: We'll watch the film and and evaluate for the performance 37 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: of the offensive line. Give you any pause when it 38 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 1: comes to putting drink in play situation? Well, like I said, 39 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: in the second half, you know, I felt like our 40 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: offensive line w They just weren't blocking the way they 41 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: did earl at earlier parts of the game. It definitely 42 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: was something that I thought of personally, But at the 43 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: same time, I thought it was too good of an 44 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: opportunity for him to go out there and get some 45 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: experience only only ran the ball five times in the 46 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: first half today. There was a lot of talk this 47 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: week about getting the ball to playmakers. Was the offense 48 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: too concerned about getting the ball to playmakers? I I 49 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that. Yeah, Look, we'll go back and 50 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: look at the calls. What I will say is, you know, 51 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: some of those players are called from the huddle and 52 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: then others. You know, the quarterback has the ability to 53 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: check run our pass and look, I mean, where do 54 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: we have a hundred yards in the first half? None 55 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: of it was good run pass or anything. Fourteen mistackle. Yeah, yeah, 56 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: very uncharacteristic, and it's one of the things I'm very 57 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: disappointed in it. And as a you know, defensive minded coach, 58 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: especially you know, the second level. We we struggled all 59 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: day as far as tackling. Once again, even when we 60 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: ta we hit 'em in the backfield. You know, just 61 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: the lack of fundamentals, the lack of discipline, and the 62 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: lack of just execution definitely, UH continue to show up. 63 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: But that's that was a very uncharacteristic uh for us. 64 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: But once again, you only get one opportunity to go 65 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: out there and perform. But right now, did you call 66 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: me goo sacks five times. You've been in twenty five 67 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: times in the first three games. How concerned are you 68 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: for him going out there? Yeah? You always got you know, 69 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: the quarterback touches the ball every play. We we have 70 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: to do better, uh up front, We have to you know, 71 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: whether it's through scheme or whatever. We gotta Readvalu waiting 72 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: the The good thing is it's Thursday, so it's a 73 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 1: mini bye week where we c we as coaches can 74 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: also reset and look at things that we could do better. 75 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: He gets to that thiege, so he gets up every time, 76 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: regardless of the agreements or not. What what does that 77 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: say to you about It means a lot. It means 78 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 1: a lot for a guy to, you know, continue to 79 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: get up. Toughness is always a a huge piece of 80 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: a puzzle for a quarterback position. But we just gotta 81 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: get better as a team. You said you would going 82 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: to evaluate film based on quarterback performance. Is there a 83 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: possibility to consider a change? I don't know. Look, we 84 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: talk about every single week. You know, you're competing for 85 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: a job. So we'll get together as a coaching staff 86 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: and and see where it goes. Or how much did 87 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: you miss family? Something to get going this one too. 88 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't wanna deal with like hypotheticals, but 89 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: Bentley's a huge piece of the of the defense, communication, 90 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: tackling physicality, all those things. And look, I have faith 91 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: in those other guys. I have faith in Rayquan, I 92 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: have faith in and Jilani and the rest of those 93 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: guys to to get better as a learning experience, once again, 94 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: we have to learn from this law uh and get better. 95 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: Bentley is not coming back anytime soon. And that's and 96 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: that's the message when you more of a surgical clinic 97 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: from Rogers. Do you think when it comes to what 98 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: you did tonight, Yeah, I mean he was getting the 99 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: ball out fast. And I would say one of the 100 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: more disappointing things was that we talked about ad nauseum 101 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,559 Speaker 1: was to keep him in the pocket. And I felt 102 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: like we at too many times let him out of 103 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: the pocket. And this is a guy who could make 104 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: all the tholse When you UH make the decision to 105 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: put Drake in at the end of the game and 106 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: take out Jacobe, is that your decision, is it? Av 107 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: that's my that's my decision, right, just not keeping him 108 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: in the pocket. Is that just a lack of focus 109 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: and discipline. It's a it's a lack of discipline, it's 110 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: a lack of execution. And I wish I could sit 111 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: here and say, well, these are things that have showed 112 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: up you know, in p but they haven't. What I 113 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: will say is there have been little things, not little things. 114 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: There are big things that happened last game that continued 115 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: to show up today and we have to get those corrected. 116 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: And that starts with me. Sure, health concern, no you 117 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: have at house? Sorry? How how concertain are you about 118 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: the offensive line, the health, the past protection. Did you 119 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: believe you have the right personnel to know these good products? 120 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: H it's I mean, look, we just got beat uh 121 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: pretty handily, and I would say, right now everything's of 122 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: of concern. Uh. The offensive line. You want those guys 123 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: to be able to go out there as a unit 124 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: and jail together. But you know, whether through injury or 125 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: through whatever it is, Uh, we just haven't found the 126 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: right combination. Oh, you guys were much more competitive the 127 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: first two weeks of the season. What do you think 128 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: the biggest change was to make I I would say 129 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: controlling the line of scrimmage and not to sound like 130 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: a broken record the last few games. I told you 131 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: guys that I thought we did a good job controlling 132 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and and being a tough football team. 133 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: We just didn't show that today in any phase of 134 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: the game. What do you see happen in the next 135 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: ten days in your mind? Get ready to where you 136 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: are to be beat it and beat the tamper position. 137 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: Uh well, we'll watch the film. Like I said before, 138 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: we'll do a self scout to see where we are. 139 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: But once again, it comes back to fundamentals. I I 140 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: I hate to keep saying that that's what it is. 141 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: And so we can sit there and you know, talk 142 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: about we should do this, we should do that. No, 143 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: it's blocking, it's tackling, it's strong, it's catching, it's running, 144 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: it's it's all those things that we just did a 145 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: poor job. A final question with thanks as me. Thanks,
