1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Obviously it wasn't your unit's best performance and just come 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,519 Speaker 1: out of nowhere for you. 3 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 2: No. 4 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I think gave up some critical plays of 5 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: critical situations. That's the thing I took from them more 6 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: more than anything. A couple third downs there. We didn't 7 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: make plays where perfect world would make. Those plays were 8 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 1: off the field give us a shot. Thought we battled 9 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: in the run game. I know there were a few 10 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: two or three that went for ten plus, but I 11 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: thought we battled overall under four per carries pretty good 12 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: winning football in terms of stopping the run. If you're 13 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: under four usually this got eliminated explosives on that end. 14 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: That's the other thing that just keeps showing up, the 15 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: explosive runs, making sure we keep those down. But I 16 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: think that the biggest thing that came away from that 17 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,599 Speaker 1: game is just when the time comes we got a 18 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: critical situations, we got to be able to execute and 19 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: make the plays and not let them make the plays 20 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: and not really don't get it to them. Right, We've 21 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: got to make sure we don't give it to them. 22 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: And you are in the right spots and next to 23 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: you a high level. 24 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 3: Why do you think interceptions have been so fear and 25 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 3: far between, and how. 26 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: Do you get more of them? One more time one interceptions? 27 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 3: And why do you think that's the case, And how 28 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:14,639 Speaker 3: do you get. 29 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: More of them? 30 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we got to do a good job. 31 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: It starts with making sure we stop the run. We 32 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: gotta get them in some passing situations. 33 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 2: Get in some. 34 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: Favorable situations for us where we can rush, where we 35 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: can cover, play with vision affected quarterback, continue to make 36 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: the plays that are there, hopefully get some balls tipped 37 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: in the air that we can catch. It's got to 38 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: create those opportunities for ourselves. And when they present themselves, 39 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: we got to be able to make them. 40 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 2: Are they presenting themselves? Like, do you feel like you 41 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: had chances for interceptions? I don't think not enough, not enough. 42 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: I think we need more. 43 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: And again it's something we got to continue to work 44 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: at and we got find ways. 45 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: The tricks means the suprising because like people always say, 46 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 3: pass rushing second year. 47 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 2: To go handle it. You lead the league in sacks, yep, 48 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: I should be. 49 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: Rushing quarterbacks in your laugh and interception. 50 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, And I would say I mean a 51 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,959 Speaker 1: big emphasis for me is we're back there on the 52 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: quarterback and we don't get the ball off them, right, 53 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: Like quarterbacks are the number one bumblers in the NFL. 54 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: So there's got to be an emphasis that we're able 55 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: to get back there and we're able to get to them. 56 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: Let's let's try to attack the football stripsack is a 57 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: sack just the same. So I would say that's that's 58 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: a major point of emphasis, and I mean i'd agree 59 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: with you. 60 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: You would think if you're able to affect. 61 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: But again, those quarterbacks, if you're getting the sack numbers, 62 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: they're not putting it up in there either, right, So 63 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: hopefully we can take advantage of those times when we're 64 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: able to get some pressure, get them off the spot, 65 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: make them uncomfortable back there. If there are opportunities that 66 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: aren't great throws, we can take advantage of them. 67 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 3: How can you get the pass rush back to where 68 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: it was after this past weekend? 69 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: Keep working? 70 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: I mean, uh, I mean teams obviously they know what 71 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: we know and they know what you know. I mean, 72 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: we've had some success with those eyes. 73 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 2: Those guys have been. 74 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: Able to win some one on one. So they're keeping 75 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: some guys in the chip in on the edges. They're 76 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: sliding where they need to slide, So we got to 77 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: continue to counter that. And again goes back to a 78 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,519 Speaker 1: little bit at one point earlier, like we got to 79 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: make sure we do a good job on early downs 80 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: and stopping the run, putting them in some past situations 81 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: where we can go to where it's not always run, 82 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: play action pass. 83 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 3: How do counter chips and what is the answer to that, 84 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: because it seems like anything. You guys don't have a 85 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: lot of sacks, as they say, they chip me all games, 86 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 3: So how do you. 87 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's tough, it is. 88 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: I think I think their awareness of of where they are, 89 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: how they attack those guys, right like you Nussen's got 90 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: to be two guys. You've got to have a plan 91 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: for the first guy. Then you've got to have a 92 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: plan for the second guy. You can't just go in 93 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: there and say they chip me and I'm done, right, Like, 94 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: we got to keep working at it, continue to coordinate 95 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: some things between the edge the inside. What we're able 96 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: to do there to try to change a picture on 97 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: them in regard to that. And and again, if if 98 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: they got three guys out in the route, we got 99 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: some bodies, we got some vision, we can do some 100 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: things and find ways to get off the field in 101 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: those situations. 102 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: What's missing up front in and running game run? I mean, 103 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: I don't. 104 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's anything one thing in particular, 105 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: I really don't. I think the XPlay runs or what's 106 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: been showing up, and it's been across the board, it's 107 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: been mistackles here or there, it's been potentially misfitting some 108 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: things at times, not being in the right spot. I 109 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: mean you look and you go through all the all 110 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: the runs and you look back at them, and there's 111 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: some there's some really good clips in there, and you're 112 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 1: you're just like, how can we get to the point 113 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: where those other twenty twenty five runs look like the 114 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: five that were giving up to ten plus? 115 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: Right? So just finding ways to do that. 116 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: And I think a big part of that too is 117 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: is making sure if they do find a crease or 118 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: it does break some form of fashion, like let's make 119 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: sure it's ten to fifteen. And we've had a few 120 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: of those fifty forty yard ers too that play into 121 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: that too. But just continue to focus on it, continue 122 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: to make sure guys are doing their job. Technique and 123 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,239 Speaker 1: fundamentals across the board, eyes come into play. 124 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I think there's a aread of reasons. 125 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: You had lots in that subpackage, rush pack in the decks, 126 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: and then the two edge guys a little bit. 127 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: He's only been here a short time. What is he 128 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 2: showing you? What about his game? Were you trying to 129 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 2: mix in there? I thought did a really good job 130 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: in there. 131 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: I think he won a few and he has some 132 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: opportunities and sweat he's showing out here in practice. I mean, 133 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: that's what we tell these guys. You earn your opportunities. 134 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: Nothing's going to be handed to you. Again, it's week 135 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: to It's a week to week league across the board, 136 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: so you got to prove it every week. Guys come 137 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: out here in practice they do something, we see something like, 138 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,359 Speaker 1: we're gonna get him opportunity to go see if they 139 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: can do it on Sunday. Keeping the competition healthy, continuing 140 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: to kind of build on that and make sure these 141 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: guys are competing day in and day out, and hopefully 142 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: they make the most of their opportunities come to day, 143 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: which I thought he did for the most part. 144 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: How do you a lot of roles to you guys inside? 145 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,119 Speaker 1: Sloane could play safety, personal started five games. 146 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 2: How do you replace them? 147 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we got guys that again appreciate Nick, 148 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: Appreciate how he carried himself, Appreciate that role that he 149 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: had here. I thought he he was the ultimate pro 150 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: in that regard. Really appreciative of him and what he 151 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: was to our unit, to this team and his time here. 152 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: But we got guys like the NFL, it happens, happens everywhere. 153 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: So looking forward to some of these other guys that 154 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: are gonna have some opportunities and hopefully they can make 155 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: the most of it. 156 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 2: As the next guy. 157 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 3: And Nicole, he was the guy who was stepping with 158 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 3: Dreven out the other day, Like, who is that next 159 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: guy there? 160 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, we got a few I mean between obviously flats 161 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: played there, between Stroman between Za, Like, we got some 162 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: pieces there that that we feel comfortable with that we 163 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: can we can mix in there if we need to. 164 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: How do you get back to playing the level that 165 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: you guys wanted to be at. I think day in 166 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: and day out, staying on them, coaching them hard, finding wins, 167 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: small victories out on the practice field, continue to gain confidence, 168 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: continue to make plays on the football in practice. I 169 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: think that carries over the game. I thought it is 170 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: some good things Sunday. Obviously there's a few plays he 171 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: probably wants back. We probably won't went back just the same, 172 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: but I thought he did some good things, showed up 173 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: in the run game. I think that's a step that 174 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: he's continuing to take for us. Been an emphasis there 175 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: as well. So I think just the day in and 176 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: day out, the grind of an NFL season at practice, 177 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: like we gotta we gotta be able to do in practice, 178 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: all eleven of us, Like, we gotta be able to 179 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: do it in practice if we expect to do it 180 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: on Sunday with day you mentioned confidence, did your sense 181 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: that he maybe had lost. 182 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: A little bit? 183 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: No, no sense, no sense of that. I think it's 184 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: more just that's some vision ourselves. Let's go out here 185 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: and make these plays in practice, and then the game. 186 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: Is going to happen. Second age. Does that make sense? 187 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 2: How much how much new warning, how much different or 188 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: more confident? 189 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 3: Do you see Bryce Young after he came back and 190 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 3: was put back in the lineup or. 191 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: Or what do you see the different? Oinion? 192 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, he made they made some plays down the field. 193 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: He had a nice little back shoulder throwing a little 194 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: wheel route like got the got the ball in guy's 195 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: hands and they made some plays. Tight end another tight 196 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: end hurtling down the sideline. Seems like we see one 197 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: every week. But I thought he was decisive, found ways 198 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: to get the ball of his hands, get them to 199 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: their playmakers. They got they got really good catch and 200 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: run guys. Like if they're able to get the ball 201 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: in their hands in space, they're big, they're strong and fast, 202 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: they're tough to bring down, so utilizing that, I think 203 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: they're run game. They're doing a really good job run 204 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: the football, especially in early downs. So just making sure 205 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: they're going to have compliments off of that to help him, 206 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: to help everybody, to help the offense. So we got 207 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: to make sure we do a good job on early 208 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: downs and then hopefully we can make them uncomfortable and 209 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: and go from there. 210 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 3: It's tackling in your mind right now as a matter 211 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: of fundamentals, is it is it will and focus and 212 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 3: how are you? 213 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I do. I think some of the space 214 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 2: ones are hard, and uh. 215 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: I think our guys understanding of like there's no bad 216 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: tackle when you're in space, right, get them on the ground. 217 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: I think the understanding like it's gonna be times you 218 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: might it might not look good and you might end 219 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: up on your back, Like that's the nature of the beast. 220 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 2: Like it's tough to get those. 221 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: Kill shots when when there's space, right, So I think 222 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: it's twofold continuing to constrict space right, so we're not 223 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: having some of. 224 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 2: Those creases where where it gives the running back some 225 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: two way goals. 226 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: And at the same time, when we do find ourselves 227 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: in those positions, let's make sure we stay on our feet. 228 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: We're not too wide with our base, we're not hopping, 229 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: we're not stepping under ourselves, we're stepping the contact, we're 230 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: wrapping up like eyes angles. I mean, there's a there's 231 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: a million things fundamentally I go into making a tackle 232 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: that I think we've got to continue to see and again, 233 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: like we pointed out every day in practice, like those 234 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: are the little things in practice like you can't you 235 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: can't disregard and and we've got to make sure that 236 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: we're focused on them players and coaches throughout the week.
