WEBVTT - Kyle Shanahan on Staying 'Consistent' for Super Bowl LVIII | Press Pass

0:00:00.720 --> 0:00:01.600
<v Speaker 1>That's up guys.

0:00:02.960 --> 0:00:06.280
<v Speaker 2>The practice or injury reports for today, George Kittle is limited,

0:00:06.400 --> 0:00:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Armstead was limited, Ambry Thomas was limited, or in Burgs

0:00:10.000 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 2>was limited, and that was it go ahead.

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:17.079
<v Speaker 1>What kind of status is Kittle and Armstead? Do you

0:00:17.079 --> 0:00:18.959
<v Speaker 1>have any concerns about them at this point in the week. No,

0:00:19.079 --> 0:00:20.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It'll be good to go.

0:00:26.000 --> 0:00:31.400
<v Speaker 3>Hello. Coach Christian McCaffrey had done an historic season this year.

0:00:31.600 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 3>Without any quarterback doing historic season as well, it would

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:38.520
<v Speaker 3>have been an MVP lock in the nineties early two

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 3>thousand and Today, it seems unlactly that you will be

0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 3>MVP during the NFL. W knows. Do you think it's

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:50.040
<v Speaker 3>impossible in the actual NFL for non quarterback to be

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:50.520
<v Speaker 3>m VP.

0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:54.960
<v Speaker 2>I think it's possible, but it doesn't seem like they

0:00:55.000 --> 0:00:56.600
<v Speaker 2>do that anymore. I mean, I just think it's hard

0:00:56.600 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 2>to compare to those positions a little bit. So, I mean,

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:02.680
<v Speaker 2>if anyone's ever been an MVP that's not a quarterback,

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 2>it's definitely a Christian, But I it does usually.

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Go to a quarterback.

0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 2>So hopefully someday they'll be able to balance that out.

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 2>So guys deserve it for both spots. Because they're not

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:14.520
<v Speaker 2>comparable positions.

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 4>Kyle Ryan Dunleavy, New York post a lot of the

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.320
<v Speaker 4>why do you think so many of successful Super Bowl

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:30.400
<v Speaker 4>teams have had trick plays? Aggressive plays, Philly Special, Sean

0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.400
<v Speaker 4>Payton's on sidekick. Is it the extra week to prepare?

0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 4>Why do you think that is?

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>And do you.

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 4>Think that's something that Super Bowl winning teams have to do?

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Be more aggressive?

0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:44.280
<v Speaker 2>No, I think you got to do. I think you

0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:47.200
<v Speaker 2>gotta be strategic. I don't think anyone just says let's

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:50.040
<v Speaker 2>be aggressive. I think that was a good I think

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.120
<v Speaker 2>the Philly Special was a great two point play versus

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 2>man de man coverage, only they're not on that ver

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 2>zone and they had a good man check. They knew

0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:59.120
<v Speaker 2>they played man, so that usually is a really good play.

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 2>And I think Sean Payton, I'm just guessing, knew going

0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:04.880
<v Speaker 2>against Peyton Manning in that offense, he was going to

0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 2>do everything he could to steal a possession. Probably saw

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:10.919
<v Speaker 2>a guy leaving too early on the kickoff team all year,

0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:13.160
<v Speaker 2>and I was probably a risk worth taking knowing who

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 2>they were going against.

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:19.119
<v Speaker 1>Just one more awards question. Patrick Willis has a chance

0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:20.240
<v Speaker 1>to be in the Hall of Fame this year.

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 2>What's your biggest memory about Patrick Willis on the field, just.

0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Him kicking the crap out of us?

0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:28.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't think. I don't remember being in Patrick Willis

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 2>too much. Didn't get a play against him a ton.

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 2>I want to say the last time was probably thirty

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:36.120
<v Speaker 2>one to three game. I think in twenty thirteen when

0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 2>he came to Washington. They had a hell of a

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 2>defense and he was the best guy out there.

0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:45.240
<v Speaker 5>Hi, Kyle, can you talk about your observations the level

0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:47.920
<v Speaker 5>of intensity at practice today and also how do you

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:50.520
<v Speaker 5>balance the messaging with you know, the margin for air

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 5>against a team like the Chiefs, but also wanting guys

0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 5>to play fast and free on both sides of the ball.

0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Usually super Bowl practices are you know, they're great. Guys,

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:02.920
<v Speaker 2>got a lot of natural energy. They're all really excited

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.960
<v Speaker 2>for the moment on Sunday, and guys just want they

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 2>want every opportunity to go through that. So they's prepared

0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.040
<v Speaker 2>as well as they can be when you get to Sunday.

0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:12.040
<v Speaker 2>Anytime you get into the playoffs, let alone the Super

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Bowl practices, meetings, everything, everyone's just a lot more alert

0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:20.440
<v Speaker 2>and you want them. I mean, once the game starts,

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:23.079
<v Speaker 2>it's all about cuttings. That's why you go through everything

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.399
<v Speaker 2>throughout the week and you try to be up tight

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.839
<v Speaker 2>about every single detail and cover it all. But when

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.680
<v Speaker 2>that game starts, it's it's not about thinking. It's about

0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 2>reacting and playing. And usually if you've had the right preparation,

0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 2>then you're you can play that way. If you've got

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 2>to start thinking on Sunday, you're in trouble.

0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Coach good after from Mexico.

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:46.480
<v Speaker 6>Coach bigger Kids for you guys, slowing down for is

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.640
<v Speaker 6>Kelsey or stopping Chris Jones. And a second moan, if

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 6>you let me, if you go, if you win, how

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.000
<v Speaker 6>are you going to to celebrate.

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Your first one? Who's hard to stop Kelsey or Chris Jones?

0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:10.840
<v Speaker 1>Is that what you asked it? Bigger Keys? We gotta

0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.280
<v Speaker 1>do both. I can't put one in front of the other.

0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:16.240
<v Speaker 2>Because they are on separate sides of the ball, and

0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 2>they're the two biggest challenges in each side. I mean,

0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:21.400
<v Speaker 2>that's what's so different about football. You don't It's not

0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:23.640
<v Speaker 2>basketball where you're playing back and forth. It's one offense

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.960
<v Speaker 2>for Southern defense and vice versus. So it's two separate

0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:28.200
<v Speaker 2>games going out there, and it's how everything ties together.

0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 2>That's why quarterbacks are never playing against each other. Chris

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Shones is the toughest guy to deal with on their defense,

0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:38.280
<v Speaker 2>and you know, after Pat, I mean Travis is the toughest,

0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:39.560
<v Speaker 2>one of the toughest players to.

0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:40.320
<v Speaker 1>Deal with in this league.

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:43.880
<v Speaker 2>So they're both two huge challenges.

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:48.919
<v Speaker 1>I haven't thought about that yet, but I'll do it

0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 1>for a while. It won't just be one.

0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 7>Night, Kyle.

0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:54.840
<v Speaker 8>In this day and age where there's a lot of data,

0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 8>analytics and film study, how much do you allow your

0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.200
<v Speaker 8>gut to take over and make.

0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 9>A call for you.

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:04.839
<v Speaker 2>I mean film study and I mean film study analytics.

0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:08.440
<v Speaker 2>That's what affects your gut. I mean your gut, not

0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:12.120
<v Speaker 2>just gambling under letter or anything. It's you study, you prepare,

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:12.600
<v Speaker 2>You do that.

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:13.160
<v Speaker 1>A lot of ways.

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 2>You know your own team, You know the tendencies of

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:18.400
<v Speaker 2>what you're going against, from watching film, from watching techniques.

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 2>You get tons of analytics reports that sometimes can really help,

0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 2>sometimes they're skewed. You got to look into all that

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 2>and match it with what you see, and that's what

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.880
<v Speaker 2>affects your gut. Your gut isn't just hey, I got

0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:31.520
<v Speaker 2>a good guts, you've worked out it all week, and

0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:34.000
<v Speaker 2>which allows you to anticipate and do stuff because every

0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:37.840
<v Speaker 2>decision is based off of that. There's not until we

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 2>get robots doing this. There's not just hey, this equals

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 2>this and you go to this. It's it's all about

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.360
<v Speaker 2>that one play, and there's different variations and it's only

0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:46.279
<v Speaker 2>about that one play.

0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 8>Kyle jam Alexander with three Old Talker. Media's quick to

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:58.280
<v Speaker 8>make narratives sometimes about careers, and there might be one

0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.080
<v Speaker 8>if you don't win this game, that you can't win

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.520
<v Speaker 8>the big one. How are you prepared to deal with that?

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.680
<v Speaker 8>If that would be the case, that that might be

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 8>the narrative coming out of this game.

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 1>If you guys don't win, I deal with it the

0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:11.080
<v Speaker 1>same way.

0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 2>If we win, I celebrate with our team, I celebrate

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:16.839
<v Speaker 2>with my families, and I move on with the rest

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.440
<v Speaker 2>of my life, which is being a father, son and

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:21.200
<v Speaker 2>coaching and working and doing all that.

0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:24.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, narrative, good or bad is just a narrative.

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:26.800
<v Speaker 2>And that's my biggest thing with everything, Like when you

0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.080
<v Speaker 2>go into these games, what makes you prepare? I just

0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:31.440
<v Speaker 2>don't want to regrets. I just don't want to do

0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:33.840
<v Speaker 2>everything that makes sense to myself, that makes sense for

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.120
<v Speaker 2>our team. And when you do that, that's what I

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 2>have found. No matter how hard something is or good

0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:42.320
<v Speaker 2>something is, you always keep perspective of what it really

0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 2>is if you want to. If you want your perspective

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 2>to be someone else's narrative. Good luck being happy in

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 2>life or successful.

0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:56.279
<v Speaker 6>Kyle, I have a pretty important question always, yeah, absolutely.

0:06:56.279 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Can you discuss the smoke alarm affected you?

0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:02.200
<v Speaker 8>Were you able to get back to sleep?

0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 10>How a little affect you?

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 2>On Sunday we were already up so and then getting

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 2>into the coaches and we're in the basement, so we

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.640
<v Speaker 2>didn't actually hear it. But by the time I saw

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:14.040
<v Speaker 2>the players at seven and asked them how their night was,

0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:17.280
<v Speaker 2>they're all were complaining about the fire alarm and all

0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 2>having to go outside and everything. So I didn't realize

0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 2>how big of a deal it was till I met

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:23.120
<v Speaker 2>them and they showed me the video, and so I

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 2>think it was a pain for them. Just no one

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:26.440
<v Speaker 2>wants to get up at six and have to go

0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.560
<v Speaker 2>outside when we don't have meetings till eight.

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:30.080
<v Speaker 1>But it is what it is.

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.320
<v Speaker 4>Hey, Kyle, how do you reconcile the fact that everything

0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 4>you do throughout the season and even through the off season,

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:39.000
<v Speaker 4>how do you kind of sit with the fact that

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 4>it all boils down to this one moment, these three

0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:42.360
<v Speaker 4>hours on Sunday.

0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 2>I think that's how it boils down to it for everybody.

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 2>I think if I look at my whole NFL career,

0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 2>like I feel like the only time that you ever

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 2>in the season satisfied without a Super Bowl is maybe

0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 2>people's first year as a head coach.

0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:58.880
<v Speaker 1>If you exceed over.

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 2>It, over exceed expectations, if you do that more than

0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>people think and you're just short of the playoffs, it's

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 2>like the only time that you haven't made the playoffs

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 2>and you're not just feeling like you completely failed after

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.640
<v Speaker 2>that if you don't make the playoffs in this league, like,

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:18.320
<v Speaker 2>no one's happy. If you make the playoffs and you

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 2>lose your last game in the playoffs, no one's happy

0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 2>when you get to the super Bowl. If you lose

0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:26.040
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl, you're not happy. I got told this

0:08:26.120 --> 0:08:28.640
<v Speaker 2>a long time ago. There's usually only one team that's

0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:30.559
<v Speaker 2>happy at the end of the year. And so whether

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:33.160
<v Speaker 2>it comes down to the Super Bowl, it's a playoff game,

0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:36.040
<v Speaker 2>it's all the same, Like we're going for the big one. Yeah,

0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:37.680
<v Speaker 2>it hurts when you get that close to it because

0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:40.600
<v Speaker 2>it is so hard to get there. But I mean

0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 2>there's lots of big games in this league. I'm very

0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:46.160
<v Speaker 2>fortunate our team's been able to get here twice.

0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, last one was a tough one.

0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:49.800
<v Speaker 2>I felt we had every opportunity to win that, but

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.200
<v Speaker 2>they made those plays that if we did it at

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:53.559
<v Speaker 2>the end, and I think it's gonna be a real

0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:55.560
<v Speaker 2>tight game this week. We got two really good teams

0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:57.360
<v Speaker 2>and we'll see how it unfolds.

0:08:57.360 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 1>But I like our chances.

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:04.400
<v Speaker 7>Coach Ablo Martine Ridmo. Yesterday, Troy Vincent at an Amazon presentation,

0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:05.760
<v Speaker 7>talked about the impact of.

0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:07.680
<v Speaker 1>AI and data on head coaching.

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:09.720
<v Speaker 7>He said some of the younger coaches would love to

0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:12.040
<v Speaker 7>have that as help because they're not as experienced.

0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 1>The older coaches.

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.280
<v Speaker 7>Don't want that anywhere near the younger coaches because it

0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 7>made even even the field. You've been a young coach,

0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:20.240
<v Speaker 7>you're not a young coach anymore. Do you ever foresee

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.360
<v Speaker 7>having a booth next to you so you can consult

0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:25.679
<v Speaker 7>very quickly or at this point what you know is

0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 7>good enough and the machine won't help you.

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:31.439
<v Speaker 2>No, I mean what anybody knows isn't good enough. Everything

0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:33.760
<v Speaker 2>evolves every day, so I don't care if you're young

0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:35.920
<v Speaker 2>or old, or it's this week or next week. Like

0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:39.200
<v Speaker 2>if you don't stop, if you stop learning, you're it's

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.760
<v Speaker 2>not for long. So I mean, I don't that's pretty

0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:44.199
<v Speaker 2>broad on what AI does and everything, but if it

0:09:44.240 --> 0:09:47.320
<v Speaker 2>can help, I mean we'll use anything that helps. But again, football,

0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:51.840
<v Speaker 2>like percentages and everything can help people have a clue

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:53.560
<v Speaker 2>what happens over a long period of time.

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:55.760
<v Speaker 1>That's why I always related to blackjack.

0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:58.160
<v Speaker 2>If you follow the rules exactly, you should win fifty

0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.679
<v Speaker 2>one percent of the time if you no one sits

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.959
<v Speaker 2>next to you who doesn't know the rules. But football

0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:05.439
<v Speaker 2>is not that way. You didn't you don't get to

0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.040
<v Speaker 2>run that third and one one hundred times and end

0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:10.120
<v Speaker 2>up if you do it the exact way someone next

0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 2>to you, you'll be fifty one percent. So I mean

0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:17.600
<v Speaker 2>sometimes you get a lot of numbers, but people don't realize, well,

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.679
<v Speaker 2>yeah they're a good run team.

0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Well that was pretty bad.

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Did you see that one guy busts and let's get

0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 2>that seventy yarder all of a sudden, But everyone else

0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 2>is going to talk to you about how they're real

0:10:28.559 --> 0:10:30.560
<v Speaker 2>good run teams. So like all that stuff, and sometimes

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.120
<v Speaker 2>it's really good. That's why you got to take.

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 1>It all in.

0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.200
<v Speaker 2>But don't just read a sheet and think it's the

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.439
<v Speaker 2>cliff notes and it'll help you pass the tests. Better

0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:39.280
<v Speaker 2>go verify it in a lot of different ways, because

0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:40.080
<v Speaker 2>it's one decision.

0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.720
<v Speaker 10>Kyle, what do you remember about what your dad told

0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:47.400
<v Speaker 10>you after the last Super Bowl? And then what kind

0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:49.640
<v Speaker 10>of conversations have you had leading up to this one?

0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:54.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean last super Will did say he was proud

0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:58.559
<v Speaker 2>of me, hurt from me. Those they're tough. That's why

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:00.600
<v Speaker 2>it happens right away, like probably any dad would do

0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:03.199
<v Speaker 2>as it goes by you. I can talk more football

0:11:03.240 --> 0:11:07.079
<v Speaker 2>with my dad than most people can, but not much

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.319
<v Speaker 2>different than any other game. You know, so nothing magical

0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:13.400
<v Speaker 2>to give you guess, Kyle, would.

0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 9>You agree that you know, maybe you guys haven't played

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:19.360
<v Speaker 9>your A game yet in the two playoff games, and

0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:23.160
<v Speaker 9>how have you gone about challenging your team and preparing

0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 9>them so that this game is a more complete game

0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 9>from start to finish.

0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:29.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's I don't think we've necessarily played our

0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 2>A game all year. I mean I think just in

0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:33.880
<v Speaker 2>all three phases. I thought probably in all three phases

0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 2>it was maybe Dallas we got there. I think in

0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.200
<v Speaker 2>the second half of the Philly game didn't start out

0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 2>that right that way. We've been able to win a

0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:44.680
<v Speaker 2>lot of games, and win a lot of them not

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:48.320
<v Speaker 2>very that weren't very close, But I mean we don't everything.

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:49.480
<v Speaker 1>We never have acted.

0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, those two games in the playoffs definitely weren't

0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.319
<v Speaker 2>our best all around in all three phases. But you're

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:57.160
<v Speaker 2>also going to get some better teams too. It always

0:11:57.160 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 2>does get harder. But our team, we haven't sat here

0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 2>and said, what do we got to do these last

0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.120
<v Speaker 2>two weeks. This is what we do every single game,

0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:05.280
<v Speaker 2>even games that people think we're doing real good, and

0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 2>we don't always look at it that way. So we're

0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:10.160
<v Speaker 2>pretty hard on each other. We there's nothing new that

0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:12.960
<v Speaker 2>we're seeing, like, oh, we got to fix it every

0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:15.280
<v Speaker 2>single play, whether it's practice, whether it's walk through, whether

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.719
<v Speaker 2>it's the game, it's it's always accounted for.

0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.240
<v Speaker 1>So we got guys that like football, they.

0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:22.760
<v Speaker 2>Don't mind getting corrected, and we just keep working at it,

0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.320
<v Speaker 2>always trying to have that perfect game, which probably never

0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:27.480
<v Speaker 2>will have but hopefully we can have as good of

0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.559
<v Speaker 2>a one this week, and that'd be our last one

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:29.920
<v Speaker 2>of the year.

0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:32.120
<v Speaker 1>You're right, last one, Kyle.

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:34.600
<v Speaker 10>You when you first took over as the head coach

0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 10>of the Niners, your offense was known for a lot

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:37.839
<v Speaker 10>of under center play action. That was kind of the

0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:40.720
<v Speaker 10>new big thing. Over the last five six years, you've

0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:42.400
<v Speaker 10>been running it less and less and less, but more

0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:45.360
<v Speaker 10>shotgun flash and more undercentered straight drop back. What's been

0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:46.800
<v Speaker 10>the impetus behind that? Change?

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Lots of things? How defense play?

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:51.160
<v Speaker 2>You it to a certain passes you want to do

0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:54.640
<v Speaker 2>out of the shotgun, and then once you do more

0:12:54.679 --> 0:12:57.160
<v Speaker 2>stuff out of the gun, how you I mean regards

0:12:57.240 --> 0:12:58.760
<v Speaker 2>to whether it's in gun or under center. We're still

0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:00.520
<v Speaker 2>trying to be balanced on first and that can down.

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:03.480
<v Speaker 2>So you come up with new runs out of the shotgun,

0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.920
<v Speaker 2>which leads to new play actions out of the shotgun.

0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:08.640
<v Speaker 2>Whatever you do a lot of you usually get stuff

0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:11.520
<v Speaker 2>off of that, and I don't know, if you get

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:13.679
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks that are more comfortable with it, you start to

0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:16.920
<v Speaker 2>do a different play Things just evolve and you just

0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:17.679
<v Speaker 2>keep learning.

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 1>You build inventory,
