But excited to get 16 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 2: back in front of our fans. Excited to be down 17 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: down there, you know, having the support when they're on 18 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: offense and the noise that this makes our crowd makes 19 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 2: it so hard to operate. So it'd be nice to 20 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: be back in front of our fans. So with that, 21 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 2: I'll take any questions. Grahams injury, Yeah, he did something yesterday. 22 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 2: We'll see how it responds really over the next twenty 23 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 2: four hours. Forty eight a knee injury. 24 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 3: The two guys in the protocol Gauge and Jack, Yeah, 25 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 3: are they still in there, working their way. 26 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: Through, working their way through. Both are progressing it as 27 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 2: you know. You just follow those progressions, follow the protocols, 28 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 2: follow the rules, and see where it takes us. But 29 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: I trouble there's a chance, yes, Yeah. 30 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 4: Without David is game and what he means to you guys. 31 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Obviously Dave's a big part of this football team 32 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 2: on and off the field and the energy that he brings. 33 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: So we expect other guys to step up in his absence, 34 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 2: but he'll be there. He'll be there on the sideline 35 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: and he'll provide that leadership that he always does. 36 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 5: Is there any long term conservative patent's injury or just 37 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 5: day to day? 38 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 6: No, day to day. 39 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 3: Just being more blak with David in there, Yeah. 40 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: We have different options. Obviously, Blake's a guy that's played 41 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: a lot for us over the years, and we trust. 42 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 6: How much I mean, you. 43 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 5: Know the forecast. How much do you actually prepare for that. 44 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 6: Weather when you don't know? 45 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, over the years, what I try to do is 46 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 2: I look at it early, so really late Monday, you're 47 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: looking at it Tuesday. Uh, and then you really don't 48 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: do much. You may plan accordingly, but you have to 49 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 2: wait till later in the week because, as you know, 50 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 2: it just changes so often when you're that far out. 51 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: So when you get into Thursday night Friday, that's when 52 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 2: you really take a peek. And and we've played in 53 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: these games. We've played in the cold, we played in 54 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: the wind, rain, you name it. So it does affect 55 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: the football game, and it affects both teams equally. It 56 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 2: affects certain aspects of the game equally. So like I 57 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: said to you guys, and I've told the team, we 58 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: don't control the weather. We just deal with it. Watched 59 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: I did not know. I'm definitely asleep on Thursday nights. 60 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 6: Are we good? 61 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 7: Yeah? 62 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: Obviously, as you know, Tom, you're you're always rooting for 63 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: all of your friends around the league, and that that 64 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 2: really happens in on a lot of teams. But uh, 65 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 2: really mostly focused Uh, on our team and and what 66 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: we got in front of us. 67 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 8: And given how well Joe did play, there's obviously a 68 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 8: lot of talk about again about you know, the decision 69 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 8: to trade 'em, and I just wanted to kind of 70 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 8: kind of ask you again with you this organization talks 71 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 8: about alignment all the time. Were you in alignment with 72 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 8: the front office and ab about that trade. 73 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 6: Where you Yeah? 74 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: R respectfully, Daniel, We're worried about this game. Uh in 75 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: front of us, got to Miami Dolphins coming to town. 76 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 2: That really has all of my focus, all of our energies. Uh, 77 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 2: nothing that's happened in the past. 78 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: Didn't see that version of job. He starts you Joe, 79 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: you got you and it's ployable age two threw over 80 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 3: three fifteen. 81 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, respectfully, I mean, I understand the question, Darryl, but uh, 82 00:03:58,040 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: I really have to keep the focus on our team. 83 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: There's a decent chance that Mike Paul could get out there. 84 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: He continues to get better every single day, so we'll see, especially. 85 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 4: If like Mason can't go. I mean, it would be 86 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 4: nice to have Mike back. 87 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 6: Yeah. 88 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 2: Obviously, Mike's been working so hard, so we're looking forward 89 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 2: to that. Uh A sap. 90 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 9: What has held him back to the most? Is it 91 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 9: in mobility? 92 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: Is it? 93 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? You know I think that was a that's a 94 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 2: real injury, you know, easy for me to say, but 95 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 2: that's a So he's worked very hard to get back 96 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 2: and it's a rehab is a long road and sometimes 97 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 2: there's you know, twists and turns to it. But he's 98 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: every single day getting better, working hard. We just want 99 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: to make sure that we're making smart decisions with Mike. 100 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: Up next, Wide receivers coach Shadowshay discussed how to unlock 101 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: more explosive plays in the passing game. 102 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 4: What are you guys doing to try to minimize some 103 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 4: of the drops that we've been seeing. 104 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, we've put a emphasis like we always do, on 105 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 9: our fundamentals. We know how important it is for the receivers. 106 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 9: We always say, hey, our job is to get open 107 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 9: and that's through be an outstanding in our route running fundamentally, 108 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 9: and that's to catch the ball. And it all goes 109 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 9: back to fundamental. So whenever we fall short in any fundamental, 110 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 9: whether it's the catch or the route running or blocking 111 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 9: in the run game, we go back and emphasize those 112 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 9: fundamentals and make sure that we prioritize them and our 113 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 9: individual drills that we do at practice as well as 114 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 9: anything else we can do to just emphasize those individual fundamentals. 115 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 9: That's the only way that I have learned or know 116 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 9: to fix it as a coach is just to go 117 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 9: back and emphasize the things that we need to be 118 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 9: better at. And there's obviously a lot of things you 119 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 9: know that the receivers have to do fundamentally just not 120 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 9: catch the ball. So we're always evaluating how we can 121 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 9: be better, and to be better, you have to just 122 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 9: do it on the practice field and really emphasize those fundamentals. 123 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 10: I mean, do you notice guys like Jerry, I mean 124 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 10: they pressing, I mean pressing you see, you know, trying 125 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 10: to do too much and that sort of impacting their fundamental. 126 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think everybody's different. I do think that Jerry 127 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 9: is is takes so much pride and he wants to 128 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 9: help the team in any way he can, and obviously 129 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 9: he knows he helps the team in catching the football. 130 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 9: So obviously Jerry works extremely hard for us. I have 131 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 9: encouraged Jerry to just concentrate on, you know, the fundamentals 132 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 9: of catching the football, and he's done that and he'll 133 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 9: continue to do that. But Jerry certainly proved that he 134 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 9: can do it in this league and do it at 135 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 9: a high level, and that's what we're looking for and 136 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 9: just go back to the basics and fundamentally, we just 137 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 9: have to be better there with. 138 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 10: All the. 139 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 3: I guess the issues in you not issues, but you 140 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: know said getting hurt and the jobs like in it's 141 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 3: a real young room. So what's the conversation in there, 142 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 3: like on a weekly basis for you know, how can 143 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 3: we help this struggling offense get to where. 144 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 6: Feeds to go. 145 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, when you do have some moving parts, which we've 146 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 9: had at the receiver position this year, and you have 147 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 9: youth a part of that, I think it's so important 148 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 9: to focus in on the now and the present. 149 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 11: You know. 150 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 9: Our focus as I came up here prior to this 151 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 9: was having a walk through with the players to make 152 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 9: sure that we are very detailed in what we're doing. 153 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 9: On Friday's practice tomorrow, we'll have great meetings and walk 154 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 9: through and preparation and focus in on that and then 155 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 9: obviously the game. So I think that you can't look 156 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 9: too much forward, you can't look too much back. You 157 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 9: need to learn from mistakes and things you can learn from. 158 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 9: But I think staying in the present is what we've 159 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 9: encouraged our players to do, and that just increases their 160 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 9: chance to learn the information to go out there and 161 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 9: execute it at the level that we needed to be 162 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 9: executed at. 163 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 4: Well, how do you guard against some of the receivers, 164 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 4: you know, getting frustrated at this point, and you know, 165 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 4: Jerry trying to keep his head in the game and 166 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 4: other guys you know, trying to especially when the precision 167 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,679 Speaker 4: isn't there in the passing game for whatever reason. 168 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 9: Yeah, the focus I think always goes back to when 169 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 9: you do, when you do fall short of where you 170 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 9: want to be, whether it's fundamentally or the amount of 171 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 9: catches or those things that receivers all want to be 172 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 9: a part of, I think you go back to the basics. 173 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 9: And that's certainly what we've really focused on, is the 174 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 9: basics of what do we need to do on this 175 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 9: play to be successful. And I always try to encourage 176 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 9: the players to not have too many things to think 177 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 9: about on a play. Let's just do these one to 178 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 9: two things right, the details that we have to get 179 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 9: right on each play to be successful. And I think 180 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 9: if their focus is on that, they'll have a lot 181 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 9: more success than they would failure. And that's what we've 182 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 9: really tried to emphasize is just let's do the simple 183 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 9: things really well and that eliminates all distractions and eliminates 184 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 9: anything else out there that may prevent them from being 185 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 9: at the level that we want them to be at. 186 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 10: Simple, one big game kind of unlocking things, especially for 187 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 10: you know, for a guy like Jerry who's done it 188 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 10: before that you know just just you know, your basketball 189 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 10: shooters just need to see the ball go through the 190 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 10: through the basket. Does he just maybe need to see, 191 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 10: you know, one of those games to kind of, you know, 192 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 10: calm him down. 193 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 6: Absolutely. 194 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 9: I mean these guys obviously, we know how important it 195 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 9: is for anyone professionally to have confidence. And with one 196 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 9: game you can turn the level of confidence with a player. 197 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 9: And we see it in all sports. I've certainly experienced 198 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 9: it in my career with players that may not be 199 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 9: playing up to the standard that they know they can 200 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 9: and then they have, let's call it a breakout game 201 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 9: and have a lot of success in one game, and 202 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 9: it really does. It's like momentum in a football game. 203 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 9: It's no different momentum within each individual, Uh, you kind 204 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 9: of get on a roll. So obviously that's what we're 205 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 9: looking for, is for all of our players to go 206 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 9: out there and have a lot of poss that things happen, 207 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 9: and then create some momentum both individually and as a 208 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 9: team that ultimately leads to the wins. 209 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 12: Kind of See, Jerry, you have a really young room. 210 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 12: So how have you seen guys like Isaiah engage and 211 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 12: I know he just at the bone, but kind of 212 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 12: go through their rookie season so far and find their 213 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 12: roles in this first stretch of games. 214 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 9: I've been very pleased with our young players that we 215 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 9: have in the receiver room. They've done such a good 216 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 9: job of coming in here and working hard, and you know, 217 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 9: I think that we have some good leadership on this team. 218 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 6: I really do. 219 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 9: And I know that Tommy Reese has done a great 220 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 9: job with the young players of really teaching, coaching those 221 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 9: guys and trying to get them to help us win games. 222 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 9: And that's certainly the attitude that they've had. They do 223 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 9: everything that's to help the team, and I'm really excited 224 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 9: to keep seeing these guys play. 225 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 6: I really am. 226 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 9: They've done everything we've asked from a preparation standpoint, and 227 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 9: I think with increased opportunities, they'll have success. 228 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 5: You know, he kind of wears his emotions on his 229 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 5: sleeves a little bit. I know we saw it to 230 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 5: that one play he was kind of yelling at somebody 231 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 5: do you have to rain that in or do you 232 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 5: just kind of let Do you have to let him 233 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 5: be who he is? 234 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 6: It's a good question. 235 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 9: I think that there's a lot of aspects that we 236 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 9: have to be really good at on game day, you know, 237 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 9: obviously physically mentally with knowing our assignment, and I do 238 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 9: think there's an emotional part of it. And I always 239 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 9: think my best advice to the players is to be 240 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 9: right down the middle. You know, Let's not get too 241 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 9: high on the highs, not too low on the lows, 242 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 9: and be right down the middle. And that's what we encourage, 243 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 9: you know, both Isaiah and our other players to do, 244 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 9: and myself, I remind myself of that a lot on 245 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 9: game day as a coach, you know, just to make 246 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 9: sure that that we just again don't get too high 247 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 9: on the highs, too low on the lows. Let's just 248 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 9: stay right in the middle. Let's stay neutral and we'll 249 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 9: be able to do our job a lot better. So 250 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 9: a lot of times with young players, they they have 251 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 9: to put together those three things, the physical, the metal, 252 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 9: and the emotional part of it. And when they can 253 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 9: put those things together, they have a good product. 254 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 1: Linebackers coach Jason Tarvar talked about the early development of 255 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: Carson Swessinger. 256 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 10: Notice out of Devon this year because it seems like 257 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 10: he's really playing it what you what you would hope 258 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 10: you get out of him. 259 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 6: You know when you signed it up. 260 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 13: Devn's just gotten better and better and better and knowing 261 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 13: the system and getting his alignments and his eyes right 262 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 13: in the system, and it's been really beneficial. So just 263 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 13: since he's got here until now, he's good at being 264 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 13: ahead of motions and ahead of plays and being in 265 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 13: the right spot and you're seeing his speed come to life. 266 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 7: But he's been real physical. He's really good. 267 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 13: He's doing a nice job communicating with everybody else excited 268 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 13: for what he's doing, and we're gonna need him. 269 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 7: We're gonna need him this week. This team has some 270 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 7: speed that when you. 271 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 8: Look at the way that the Dolphin us a chan 272 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 8: as a receiver, I mean you look at your your 273 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 8: position room, Like who really stands out to you in 274 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 8: the coverage aspect at the linebacker position. 275 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 13: Well, they they as an offense blur the lines all 276 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 13: they use all their humans to run all their routes, 277 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 13: and that's what they do. They run the same plays, 278 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 13: but you don't know where people are going to be, 279 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 13: so they for for us, it becomes a rules game. 280 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 13: So our matchups, we got to know how each each one, 281 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 13: regardless of position, how they run their routes and what 282 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 13: they do or in their run plays. You know what 283 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 13: their amy points are, where their keys, and we got 284 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 13: to have our eyes right in our alignments. And then 285 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 13: it's knowing where our help is. So that's what we've 286 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 13: been working all week. Because the matchups are going to 287 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 13: be what they are. There's going to be times that 288 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 13: that any of our players can be on any of 289 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 13: their players, and so we got to use our help 290 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 13: and be under control and get our eyes in the 291 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 13: right spots to know when we're passing things off or 292 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 13: locking things or what kind of zone we're in. 293 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 14: Looks like maybe a couple times on Sunday last week 294 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 14: that Aaron Rodgers maybe caught Carson maybe once or twice, 295 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 14: and know the one play it looks like maybe the 296 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 14: undercut something like, how much of a learning experience is 297 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 14: that when it's a quarterback that reads things as well 298 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 14: as Aaron does and gets the out so quickly for 299 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 14: a rookie linebackers in the middle of the defense. 300 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 13: Well, like we say, there's only one ball on the field, 301 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 13: so we got him and he does a really good 302 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 13: job of knowing where that is and going there. There's 303 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 13: one play where somebody else needed to lock something and 304 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 13: Carson tried to fix it. 305 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 7: There's one of those. 306 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 13: And there's some times where in games like that where 307 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 13: there's gonna be something that the ball comes out really 308 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 13: fast and you got to find a way to get 309 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 13: it in the ground. I will say this the last 310 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 13: drive where we got a three inter out where Carson 311 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 13: made the two tackles on the flip play where they 312 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 13: flipped it behind the line of scrimmage, and then that 313 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 13: was a pick route there trying to pick him, and 314 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 13: he knew that, and he dropped his weight because you're 315 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 13: allowed one yard from the line of scrimmers to pick. 316 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 13: He knew the pick zone, he moved back, he dropped 317 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 13: his hips down and then went and wrapped the backup. 318 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 13: Those aren't good plays. Those are great plays. So if 319 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 13: you get him, he learns really quickly. Keep it up cars. 320 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 3: I know it was Jerome a lot of early because 321 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 3: my Mood was coming back. Right now, they're kind of 322 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: it feels like they're both split times. So how do 323 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 3: you figure out who's going to play what numbers games? 324 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 6: Well? 325 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 13: Both We feel like right now our rotation is all 326 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 13: four of the linebackers, and we really like Easton as 327 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 13: he can continues to learn. Of the five guys that 328 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 13: are active right now on the roster, we really like 329 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 13: Easton as well. Right now, my Mood and Jerome are 330 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 13: pretty solid pros that are both doing a good job. 331 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 13: We talked a little bit about aligning wider to see 332 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 13: like both with dev and against this team, and both 333 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 13: of them are continuing to improve on that. So it 334 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 13: depends somewhat on what the offense does, how what personnel 335 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 13: groups for us, what coach Swartz picks for the game. 336 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 13: But they're all going to play, and those two right 337 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 13: now are are playing sometimes the same spot and sometimes 338 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 13: they're all in together. So we're just going to continue 339 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 13: to roll them because we like what all of them do. 340 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 4: Miles expressed some frustration with how the Browns continue to 341 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 4: lose the same way every single week after that Steelers game. 342 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 4: So just wondering, you know, you guys have a basically 343 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 4: championship caliber defense. How do you think the guys are 344 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 4: handling it? What do you think the mindset is of 345 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 4: the defenders in terms of just how this. 346 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 3: Is going this year? 347 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 2: Well? 348 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 7: I think this. I think the one thing that we 349 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 7: can do is we're not promised to anything. 350 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 13: All we get is one game a week and sixty 351 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 13: plus minutes, and we don't control what falls out of 352 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 13: the sky which might be fun this week, and we 353 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 13: don't control any of that. 354 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 7: All we can control is when that ball is put. 355 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 13: Down wherever it's put down, twenty yard line, fifty yard line, 356 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 13: doesn't matter. That's all you can control is a defense. 357 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 13: Defenses have two jobs. Players hear this from me all 358 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 13: the time. At the start of the off season program, 359 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 13: we got two jobs, okay, And coaches have two jobs. 360 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 13: Help the players get better, to make plays and get 361 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 13: the ball back to the offense. That's it, and that's 362 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 13: all we can think about. So every day, when when 363 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 13: we get started, that's how we start. We start with 364 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 13: put the ball down, and then it's our job to 365 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 13: stop you. And we can't think past that, and we 366 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 13: have to do better as a defense as all of 367 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 13: us at having that mindset right there. I have to 368 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 13: I'm lecturing myself as I talk to you to get 369 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 13: our minds right to no matter what happens. And you've 370 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 13: heard this from me before, the next play is my 371 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,360 Speaker 13: best play as a coach. I'm my job to help 372 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 13: anything that happens. We talked about, Carson, anything that happens, 373 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 13: it's our job to find it, fix it together, and 374 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 13: do it better the next time, which we've been we've 375 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 13: been able to do at times. We got to do 376 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 13: it more consistent, unpredictable for Sunday and thirty mile an 377 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 13: hour wins chance of brain. 378 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 14: I guess just looking at it and the potential for 379 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 14: a lot of stuff to happen on the ground, Like 380 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 14: what's the mindset for you guys to get a chance 381 00:17:58,520 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 14: to maybe. 382 00:17:58,920 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 5: Buck some things up there? 383 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 13: I think weather forecasting, and since I've been here, which 384 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 13: been fortunate to be for a while now is a 385 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 13: really hard job here, and I think, you know, whatever happens, 386 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 13: we gotta we gotta be ready for it, you know, 387 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 13: we we and what I mean by being ready for 388 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 13: is just what I talked about, where hey, it may 389 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 13: bounce funnier, Well anytimes on the ground, we got to 390 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 13: scoop that ball up. 391 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 7: Those little things come come huge when you get weather games. 392 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 12: About Carson's ability to let the gree God has his intelligence. 393 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 12: But just through these first six games, how have you 394 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 12: just seen him grow in that?

We gotta take 667 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 6: more chances where is around? 668 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 14: Are you probably righting the frustration and using it as 669 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 14: a motivator versus I don't know, letting it almost become 670 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 14: a distraction, Like have you learned how to balance that 671 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 14: over your career or anything. 672 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 6: I don't think it's ever become a distraction before, so 673 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 6: I won't let it out. 674 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 4: So when you look at the offense, do you see 675 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 4: a reason to be hopeful that you guys that on 676 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 4: that side of the ball they can start to score 677 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 4: some points? Or can you just not even worry about 678 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 4: that at all and you just have to do your 679 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 4: own job, or is there anything that you can do 680 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 4: about that. 681 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 6: I try to focus on my side of the ball 682 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 6: mostly at the end of the day, I I have 683 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 6: no say so and what happens on the office side, 684 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 6: So no, I stick to what I can do and 685 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 6: what I can't control, and that's the defense and how 686 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 6: we can improve. But one thing that does make me 687 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 6: award is to the guys who are all over there 688 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 6: especially the young guys who are hungry and ready to 689 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 6: go and wanna make plays and whore urgent. That makes 690 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 6: me helpful. 691 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 2: A game and a game like that. 692 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 4: Where you guys didn't necessarily run the ball as much 693 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 4: as you could have, or some people think that you 694 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 4: guys might have. I mean, is that does that get 695 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 4: frustrating when you know that you got quin Shawn and 696 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 4: he's not used as much necessarily. 697 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 6: I would have liked to see us stick to the 698 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 6: run a little bit, you know, especially with a dynamic 699 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 6: playmaker like Quinn sewn uh help even Dylan and both 700 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 6: of them getting the ball and both of them have 701 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 6: different styles but effective runners in their own right. So 702 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 6: would have liked to see it, but they saw differently. 703 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 2: Well, say two more. 704 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 3: We can asked you about quarterbacks getting the ball out 705 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 3: in a hurry before, but it feels like it's more 706 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,239 Speaker 3: than ever recently they're getting it out quick. First of all, 707 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 3: do you feel that same way like to feel this 708 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 3: is the worst I've. 709 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 6: Uh, it's only gotten worse with time. I mean, the 710 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 6: without the threat of us putting up a lot of points. 711 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 6: You know, they have no fear of you know, running 712 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 6: to score up or punting. So it's like, you know, 713 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 6: if we can punt, we'll get the ball back. Eventually, 714 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 6: we wear them down and uh, you know, we'll start 715 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 6: to we'll start to score eventually, and you know, and 716 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 6: they're in their heads it's like, no, we don't have 717 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 6: to do much. And so we've got to get that 718 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 6: out of their minds. Whether that's by taking more risk 719 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 6: on defense, we'll scoring more points in offense. We've got 720 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 6: to got to dissuade them from that, and that's how 721 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 6: we can, you know, have more effect on the games 722 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 6: as defenders, especially as myself. You know, if they don't 723 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 6: feel the need to hold the ball or to take risks, well, 724 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 6: it's hard for for us to do anything. Especially if 725 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 6: they're not gonna hold the ball. They want to run 726 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 6: the ball, they're gonna get it out quick, gonna play action, 727 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,719 Speaker 6: roll the pocket chip, all this. It's just putting more 728 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 6: obstacles in the way from from us as as playmakers 729 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 6: on defensive side, you know, from from doing what we 730 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 6: know we can do. 731 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 3: Did you mention rushed where he thought, I don't know, 732 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 3: you cut it inside and the running back got you 733 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 3: and the Aaron mound up. I think going back to 734 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 3: your side. Is that an example of you trying to 735 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 3: take a risk and didn't wind up not paying off? 736 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 6: Uh personal risk? Not now? When I say take risks, 737 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, that's that's me getting after it like 738 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 6: scheme wise, And no, that was a true Honestly, I 739 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 6: didn't know how the play was gonna turn down, and 740 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 6: I took a bad angle and a running back clipped me. 741 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 6: And you know, looking at it now, obviously I should 742 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 6: have I should have went high, but you know way 743 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 6: we're taught, and you try to get underneath that, you 744 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 6: know you close tight. So no, now I know for 745 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 6: for next time. But yeah, you gotta take rich to 746 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 6: try to try to make plays, but you can't play 747 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 6: outside of the the scheme of the defense. So I 748 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 6: think I did did both and I know. 749 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 14: Better the run for you guys and teams getting the 750 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 14: ball out, but you can choose it. Defensive weather, I mean, 751 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 14: on Sunday our wins calling for right now, potential rain. 752 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 14: I know you've played in a lot of crazy weather games, 753 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 14: but like, how much can that impact things for you 754 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 14: guys and what their offense way to play? 755 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 6: Well, it won't change what they're trying to do. I 756 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 6: mean their their offense that likes to stay on time. 757 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 6: They want to run the ball, they want to get 758 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 6: on the edge, they want to get out to the 759 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 6: guys on perimeter, and uh, you know, get those those 760 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 6: quick passes over the middle. So their schemes should stay 761 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 6: are very much the same. And you know, if we 762 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 6: can get them away from that, it'll play into our 763 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 6: favor and then we'll have the elements working with us 764 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 6: as well. So you know, we we have to out 765 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 6: the run. 766 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 5: Okay, I just want to say, I mean, there was 767 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 5: some some criticism that went around this week after your comments, 768 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 5: and you know, someone mentioned that you didn't get sacks 769 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 5: or anything. You know, you didn't show up in the 770 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 5: box score necessarily. 771 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 7: Did you Did you hear any of that? Does that 772 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 7: stuff bother you at all? 773 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 6: No? I don't concern myself with the comments of people 774 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 6: who you know, don't play or don't watch the game 775 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 6: enough to understand what's going on or what they do 776 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 6: to they try to stop or neutralize me. No, stuff 777 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 6: like that doesn't really know cross my radar. At the 778 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 6: end of the day, office is a soul game plan 779 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 6: for the most part is how to stop ninety five. 780 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 6: And you know, we have to. We have to do 781 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 6: something to change down them. You make adjustments to get me, 782 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 6: you know, matchups just like other ed rushers around the league, 783 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 6: so that I can have the same kind of effect 784 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 6: because I feel like I'm that kind of player that'll 785 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 6: do it. 786 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: For this episode of the From the Podium Podcast, be 787 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: sure to like an subscribe to the show wherever you 788 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 1: get your podcasts.
