<v Speaker 1>with Jason Peters will be day to day. Some kickers,

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:05.640
<v Speaker 1>uh this week, just in case, just in case, Yes,

0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>when you were your running game when Carson was on

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 1>a center, You're to open up a running game a

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 1>little bit more and seeing the hope the play action

0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>as well. Was that body design going into the game

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 1>or did it in the full as a game of

0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 1>fo Yeah, it's it's something that we looked at, Uh,

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 1>you know in the off season for our offense. Um,

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Carson a little more under center. Um, I think it does,

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 1>especially on first and second down. Uh, run game, play

0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 1>action pass so you know, we got our big chunks

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:33.080
<v Speaker 1>in the passing game came off of that. So those

0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:36.399
<v Speaker 1>are things that we'll continue to look at as we go. Uh,

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Carson under he's also comfortable under center as well. Um,

0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>but uh, but we gotta we gotta be careful as

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:45.199
<v Speaker 1>far as uh, you know what we're doing under center.

0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>So it's not an indicator to to our teams. There

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>was a there was a report on NFL Network that

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.240
<v Speaker 1>four to six weeks for for Derby. Are you saying

0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>that that's I have Well, obviously before this I haven't

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 1>seen that yet. Uh, just talking with our doctors, were

0:01:57.880 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 1>gathering more information before we make a full statement. What

0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 1>did you see from rasseul Um? Do you feel like

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>if he is up that he's ready for Yeah, I

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 1>mean he you know, he's put himself in a good position.

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.720
<v Speaker 1>I thought he he came out of camp better than

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:15.840
<v Speaker 1>than he improved from from OTA's into training camp. He improved,

0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:18.320
<v Speaker 1>So I got a lot of confidence in him. Uh,

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:22.040
<v Speaker 1>if if that's the direction we go on defense couples,

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:26.079
<v Speaker 1>you weren't able to connect with him. I wasn't. But yeah,

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:30.239
<v Speaker 1>but what does that do to the mindset of the

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 1>quoting defense even if you're not connecting on those places,

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.880
<v Speaker 1>but they see that. Yeah, you know, it's it just

0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:38.880
<v Speaker 1>goes without without saying. I mean, you've got to take

0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.800
<v Speaker 1>those those opportunities. You gotta you gotta take those shots,

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>you know. And you just see sometimes when you're when

0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>you're maybe you're struggling offensively or or um maybe you're

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:52.880
<v Speaker 1>not moving the ball something like that, the run game's

0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:56.120
<v Speaker 1>not really clicking, defenses begin to kind of crowd the

0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:59.000
<v Speaker 1>box and you start seeing more eight and nine guys

0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:02.359
<v Speaker 1>sometimes around the box, and and you know, we've got

0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:04.800
<v Speaker 1>to we've got to continue to take shots and and

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and do that. And we had them, we had them

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:08.800
<v Speaker 1>there yesterday. They you know, we got in behind the

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.000
<v Speaker 1>defense a little bit and and just miss so um

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>it and then by doing that, it just shows you can.

0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:17.639
<v Speaker 1>Number one, you can do it offensively, but two, um

0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>it backs them up just a little bit more and

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.080
<v Speaker 1>it opens up some other things underneath. You're only ran

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>the ball to all times in the first three quarters,

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think the running backs average two point eight

0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>yards pro tempt. What do you have to do to

0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:29.600
<v Speaker 1>get better than it? Is it a matter of just

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 1>sticking it out and and even if it's not working,

0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:35.160
<v Speaker 1>running the ball more or what do you need to

0:03:35.160 --> 0:03:37.080
<v Speaker 1>do to get more balancing and give them time? Yeah,

0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>obviously at the end of the day, it's not good enough.

0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, the running game is not good enough. We

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>pride ourselves on on running the football here, and we've

0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 1>got backs in linemen and tight ends really and that

0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>can help us do that. And you know, watching the

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 1>film last night on on the way home and then

0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 1>again this morning, a couple of times, we're just we're close.

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:56.240
<v Speaker 1>We're close. I mean, we just have to finish blocks,

0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:59.720
<v Speaker 1>sustained blocks. There's uh, there were a couple and this

0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>is always happens going into week one. There's always a

0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:06.120
<v Speaker 1>few unscouted defensive looks that they present that that gave

0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 1>us some problems. Early UM made made the corrections during

0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the game, and um, you know had some success later

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 1>in the game on some of the same runs. So

0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:19.040
<v Speaker 1>it's close. We gotta keep detailing. I keep working it, um,

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.599
<v Speaker 1>and just just continue to get better getting back along

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>the feet balls. Um. Carson worked a lot on that

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.279
<v Speaker 1>this all season. As to the offense, looking at the

0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>film over some of the things that were that weren't clicking.

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>He underthrew one man, he overthrew well the first play

0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:36.279
<v Speaker 1>of the game was was his front foot slipped and

0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:37.600
<v Speaker 1>he couldn't get everything on it, so it was a

0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 1>little underthrown, um. And so because of that, in the

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:42.360
<v Speaker 1>back of your mind as a quarterback, you said, the

0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:44.040
<v Speaker 1>next time I get that opportunity, I don't want to

0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:47.160
<v Speaker 1>underthrow it. So that was the reason for the overthrow.

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 1>But obviously he made the great scramble deep throw on

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:53.080
<v Speaker 1>the run to uh to Nelson early third down play

0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:55.640
<v Speaker 1>for the for the touchdown. And then and then a

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:57.159
<v Speaker 1>couple of times all Shan, you know, we had a

0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:58.960
<v Speaker 1>couple he had his hands on the ball a couple

0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 1>of times right before on one and then and then

0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:04.359
<v Speaker 1>later in the game. So you know, Um, we just

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:07.159
<v Speaker 1>gotta keep keep keep drilling it, keep working it, um,

0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:11.040
<v Speaker 1>keep throwing it, and um, you know, uh, it's different

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 1>from practice than than game. Obviously game speeds a lot different,

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>but these are plays that our guys definitely need to make. Mention.

0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:20.240
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned with the run game, the blocking and you

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 1>certain guys assignment handling their assignments. Do you feel that

0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:25.520
<v Speaker 1>it was and I know the run game is about

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the blockers and the running backs, but did you feel

0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 1>like it was more on the blocking than the backs

0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:32.880
<v Speaker 1>or I think I think it's it's shit. It's a

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 1>shared Um, you know, it's a it's shared responsibility. Some

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:39.080
<v Speaker 1>of it's the running back hitting the hole exactly where

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.719
<v Speaker 1>we would we need it, and then other times it's

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:44.600
<v Speaker 1>just sustaining blocks and combo blocks. We do a lot

0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>of you know, zone schemes in this offense, so it's

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.920
<v Speaker 1>just it's a timing thing too. So those are things

0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:52.600
<v Speaker 1>we continue to work on each week and and get better.

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 1>The guys will look at this film and see the

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:57.800
<v Speaker 1>see the good and the bad, and obviously fix it

0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:00.480
<v Speaker 1>and move forward to get away from the a little

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>earlier than would probably be ideal. Yesterday, you know, it

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 1>was funny because in the middle of the part of

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:07.360
<v Speaker 1>the game, I felt like we were going backwards just

0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. We had some negative we had some sacks,

0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 1>we had negative rushing plays, we had some penalties in there,

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 1>and so it felt like, yeah, probably a little bit

0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:16.400
<v Speaker 1>felt like we were getting away from it. But at

0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:18.520
<v Speaker 1>the same time, we've got to do better on first

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>and second down to stay positive so that we can

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 1>continue to run the ball a little later, to get

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.760
<v Speaker 1>some timing from rhythm going Yeah, you're so short of

0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:30.520
<v Speaker 1>tackle can chase house the week you've been Have you

0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:33.560
<v Speaker 1>given any consideration to moving Isaac out there and maybe

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>plugging stuffing in a card? No, but those are all

0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:40.159
<v Speaker 1>considerations based on what we did last year. Um. You know,

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:43.560
<v Speaker 1>with the Baltimore game, having Isaac out there, obviously you

0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:47.159
<v Speaker 1>know a big v I thought stepped in and you know, um,

0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 1>with really limited reps, it tackled during the week. Um,

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, did did well? You know did well? Was

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.920
<v Speaker 1>a perfect no. Um, So those are those are conversations

0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:59.279
<v Speaker 1>we'll have these next couple of days. Can feel. What's

0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:01.400
<v Speaker 1>your sense of how Andrecks graded out? He seemed to

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:04.760
<v Speaker 1>make himself apparent on the opportunities he got. Michael, Yeah,

0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I thought, he thought, he again, you know, sort of

0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 1>uh kind of picked up where he where he left

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:12.239
<v Speaker 1>off in training camp. Had had a solid game. Um,

0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:15.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, was was around the ball, flying around close

0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>to the quarterback a couple of times. I mean, it's

0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 1>just it's just Michael and um, I thought, I thought, overall, Um,

0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:24.120
<v Speaker 1>pretty good, pretty good day for him. You know, he's

0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>getting he's getting comfortable in the scheme. Went against the blitz.

0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Was that a point of emphasis during the off season

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 1>heading into year two? And what did you see went

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 1>against the blitz? Against the blitz? And was that a

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:40.400
<v Speaker 1>point of emphasis for for you guys heading into year two?

0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:42.480
<v Speaker 1>And what did you see? Yeah, well, you know, as again,

0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 1>it was an emphasis on on our part as coaches

0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that we um present you know, in

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.880
<v Speaker 1>the off season, um, and spend time working the blitz.

0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Again yesterday first game of the year, there was there

0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.600
<v Speaker 1>were there were a couple of un scouted blitzes that

0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 1>that what picks. There were pick stunts and they pick

0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:02.960
<v Speaker 1>our guard and rapid tackle and got us early in

0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.800
<v Speaker 1>the game. And and um, you know those are things

0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:07.800
<v Speaker 1>that we can we get. We just got to see everything,

0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:09.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, and and put our guys in that position.

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Carson's got to see it. And um, you know there

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 1>were some times too yesterday where where he could have

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>he could have, you know, maybe made a quicker throw,

0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 1>get the ball out of his hand. Those are things

0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>that he'll continue to get better at, um, and then

0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll get better in the protection as well. Yesterday was well,

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:31.880
<v Speaker 1>actually the second play of the game after the shot

0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:35.240
<v Speaker 1>was actually designed to go to uh seventeen, and what

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:37.480
<v Speaker 1>happened was twenty four. Josh Norman actually played on his

0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:39.880
<v Speaker 1>outside hip and took away the post corner that we

0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:42.959
<v Speaker 1>had called, so that was played. Number two was actually

0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:47.079
<v Speaker 1>designed for seventeen. And then just really as the game unfolded, Um,

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, I was I was trying to be real

0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:52.120
<v Speaker 1>conscious of of trying to I don't want to say

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:54.719
<v Speaker 1>forcing balls, but trying to get seventeen involved getting eighty two,

0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:58.679
<v Speaker 1>involved getting eighty six involved along with the runners, and um,

0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, once once we got seventeen, a couple of touches, uh,

0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:04.160
<v Speaker 1>and then he made another big catch late in the

0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.680
<v Speaker 1>game to really end the two point conversion, which was huge.

0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:09.160
<v Speaker 1>So um, he did exactly what we had asked him

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 1>to do. And then we'll continue to grow. Conversion was

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 1>because a lot because of Caleb at that situation. Um,

0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't uh, I didn't feel comfortable. Um. You

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.559
<v Speaker 1>know again, obviously he had to kick off after that,

0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 1>but I wanted to just limit limit the number of

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.520
<v Speaker 1>number of kicks he have to just I mean, did

0:09:27.520 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 1>you have to go to him just gut it out

0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.400
<v Speaker 1>for the kickoff? Would we think about Donnie Donnie in

0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:34.679
<v Speaker 1>that situation. No, just he was he was okay to

0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:36.400
<v Speaker 1>to gut it out on that on that last kick,

0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:38.079
<v Speaker 1>and that's why it was a mortar or sky kick

0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:42.960
<v Speaker 1>in that situation. Um. And so but yeah, he'd admiraal

0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 1>job of finishing that game. What happened? Yeah, yeah, it was.

0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:54.479
<v Speaker 1>It was early in the game. Um, and it's just uh,

0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 1>it's it's lower body as hip. So we just again,

0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:58.880
<v Speaker 1>we just got to get more information and we'll have

0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 1>something probably full you you guys, it seemed like Patrick

0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Robins and Jane will Watkins played well when when Darby

0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:07.840
<v Speaker 1>went out, allowed Jim to keep up blitzing, keep pressure.

0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:12.240
<v Speaker 1>If this is a long haul thing, not having Ron Darby,

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:15.280
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna face Tyreek hill Odell Beckhama Fee's back. Is

0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.240
<v Speaker 1>it going to be a little bit more problematic though,

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:19.120
<v Speaker 1>to to be as aggressive as you want when you

0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.040
<v Speaker 1>face those kind of guys, those speed guys, well, those

0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 1>guys are always going to give you problems. You know,

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>they're they're tough to defend, you know, speed guys, quick,

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:28.720
<v Speaker 1>shifty guys. And you know, um, you know we're we're

0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:32.760
<v Speaker 1>we're as we look at it, you know, if you know,

0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.360
<v Speaker 1>if if Result's in there, if Jalen's in there, Watkins

0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:38.600
<v Speaker 1>is in there. Um, you know, try to keep Patrick

0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Robinson um possibly at the Nickel spot as much as

0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:44.959
<v Speaker 1>we can. I think it's beneficial for guys to learn

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:47.679
<v Speaker 1>one spot. And he's been comfortable in there. Can he

0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:49.959
<v Speaker 1>get you out of a game at corner? Yes he can.

0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>He did it yesterday a little bit. Uh and then

0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:54.560
<v Speaker 1>and then uh, you know with the three safeties that

0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:56.959
<v Speaker 1>we have, obviously we know Malcolm can can play nicol

0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.400
<v Speaker 1>and then Corey Graham comes into game. So yeah, it's

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:03.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna be you know, um, it's gonna be one of

0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.000
<v Speaker 1>those situations where it's gonna take all hands on deck,

0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:08.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, these next few weeks to to uh to

0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 1>to really get the job done. If they would targeting there,

0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:12.760
<v Speaker 1>they were really going to try to attack you. Yeah,

0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:14.840
<v Speaker 1>teams are gonna look at it, and and uh, you

0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.640
<v Speaker 1>know they're gonna study your Tennessee are gonna get injuries obviously,

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:20.160
<v Speaker 1>and and uh you know as we do and try

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:24.440
<v Speaker 1>to focus on those spots with the report. In respect

0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:28.040
<v Speaker 1>to uh, the Jim Schwartz, did you feel the need

0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 1>to to clear the air and where does that stand? No,

0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I did not. I mean Jim and I have always

0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:38.559
<v Speaker 1>had a great relationship and and um, you know it

0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:44.560
<v Speaker 1>was Um it's I don't want to tell you. I

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:46.439
<v Speaker 1>mean Jim and I have always had a great relationship

0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:51.480
<v Speaker 1>and and um um even yesterday. You know, the communications

0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:54.600
<v Speaker 1>always there. Um, we we talked quite a bit actually

0:11:54.679 --> 0:11:59.640
<v Speaker 1>during the week. And um, I love his enthusiasm. I

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.360
<v Speaker 1>love his swagger. I think our defensive guy's feed off

0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:06.240
<v Speaker 1>of that. You know, most decordinators I've ever been around

0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 1>have that and and and he's no different. And that's

0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:11.880
<v Speaker 1>what I one of the things I like about Jim

0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>and the fact that he has it and his guys

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>are the guy's feed off of that, and that's the

0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:19.839
<v Speaker 1>way they play. You lose guys like Darby and Jason

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Peters drating course of the game and stuff, and how

0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:25.480
<v Speaker 1>how are you as coaches, you know, able to adjust

0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:27.400
<v Speaker 1>on the fly, you know, the way he did. Do

0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you change anything at all? You the next man up mentality?

0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's always been that way. And uh, you know,

0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you might make subtle adjustments initially for a play or

0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.719
<v Speaker 1>two or a series, but then once you have time

0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:41.680
<v Speaker 1>to sort of digest what's going on, you say, you

0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:45.280
<v Speaker 1>know what this is. Okay, now, Big V, you're going in.

0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:47.640
<v Speaker 1>You got it. You know. JP tried to come back

0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.880
<v Speaker 1>and finish and and uh then we said, hey, big V,

0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:53.240
<v Speaker 1>you take it. You know, in the same way on defense. Obviously,

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Darby was a different situation because he came out immediately, um,

0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:59.520
<v Speaker 1>and and we made it work. And it's just always

0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:02.840
<v Speaker 1>been the next man mentality, you know, in those situations.

0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:06.719
<v Speaker 1>What do you think it'll be like this week? I mean,

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.240
<v Speaker 1>nobody knows Avy like you do. What do you think

0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:13.680
<v Speaker 1>that'll be like down there? Yeah, it'll be it'll be fun.

0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:15.400
<v Speaker 1>It'll be fun to see him over there, big Red

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:17.680
<v Speaker 1>on the other side. Um, you know, But at the

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.679
<v Speaker 1>same time I know that that he wants to kick

0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:22.680
<v Speaker 1>my tail and I want to kick his and uh um,

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:25.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, listen, Andy Reid teams are well prepared as

0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:27.440
<v Speaker 1>we know, and uh you know, we got to do

0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:29.280
<v Speaker 1>the same thing this week. We just got to be

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:31.400
<v Speaker 1>ultra prepared. That's a tough place to play now, I

0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:34.079
<v Speaker 1>mean it is a loud, loud place and and we've

0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:36.400
<v Speaker 1>got to be able to handle that crowd noise. We've

0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:39.240
<v Speaker 1>got to do it through communication, nonverbal communication, all of that.

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:41.880
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be on point this week in practice.

0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>But um, it'll be fun. It'll be fun to get

0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 1>out there. But again, once we once we tee it

0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 1>up and kick it off, it's all about it's all

0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>about the business and all about the game. Can you

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:55.079
<v Speaker 1>give your team your team about playing in that type

0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:57.920
<v Speaker 1>of environment that right there, Just it's tough, it's loud,

0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:02.240
<v Speaker 1>it's uh um, it's a it's a great atmosphere for

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.600
<v Speaker 1>the fans are right on top of your. Arrowhead Stadium

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 1>is right on top of you, and uh um, it's

0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:09.560
<v Speaker 1>a great place to play. The biggest thing you learned

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:14.120
<v Speaker 1>in all your years around Andy from him consistency, being honest,

0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:19.800
<v Speaker 1>being open, being fair with the players. Um, teaching, coaching, Um,

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 1>probably the biggest things. Um and just uh, you know,

0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's the attention to detail that that he

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>uh he uh has with his players and his coaches.

0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:34.400
<v Speaker 1>And that's some of the big biggest things I've learned

0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:39.280
<v Speaker 1>from him. Just who was that supposed to be a

0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:41.840
<v Speaker 1>hord passed? Agogue was Carson supposed to hold it a

0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:45.320
<v Speaker 1>little longer? Supposed to? Yeah, just a little little Again,

0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:47.240
<v Speaker 1>it was a it was a it was a run,

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.880
<v Speaker 1>a design run, and then that was just an advantage throw.

0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:52.880
<v Speaker 1>And um, it looked on film Nelson was a little

0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:55.760
<v Speaker 1>bit deeper than uh, than he should have been obviously

0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 1>because it was a lateral. But uh, um, you know,

0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:01.040
<v Speaker 1>in practice during the week, that's uh, that was never

0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:02.680
<v Speaker 1>the case. So we had to just clean those things up.

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Thanks Gay,
