Getting ready for the Colts. We have 0:00:26.160 --> 0:00:29.200 great respect for how hard they play, how young they are, 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:32.320 new staff, a lot to get ready for. So what 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:33.080 questions you have? 0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:38.240 Something he's about our daias, Just update us on what 0:00:38.400 --> 0:00:40.159 the injury is, what the status and. 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:45.600 Yeah, the injury is upper body muscle. Deal Will he's 0:00:45.640 --> 0:00:48.560 being evaluated. I'd say this week just to see whether 0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:49.600 what the term. 0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:50.040 Of that might be. 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:52.440 It'll be it'll be multiple weeks and we'll see where 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:52.760 it goes. 0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:58.000 You probe have a. 0:00:57.920 --> 0:01:02.760 Lot of emotional big daies before after those games. Do 0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:04.600 you ever have a feeling where do you have you 0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:06.560 ever knew or playing from right now, Will addressed the 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.160 team to maybe a void of that quote on post 0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:11.200 letdowel after all or win like that. 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.679 Yeah, I'd never used that word. I'm not even sure 0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.880 how to applies really in that sense, but we uh 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:21.680 we we I think we have a mutual understanding right now, 0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:25.040 kind of a vision for how we want to approach 0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:27.399 wins and losses and everything else in between. You know, 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:29.120 we talk about that. It's not just all of a 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:30.360 sudden we've got to come up and say, hey, we 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:32.600 want a game now. Now what you know, this is 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.560 something that we were here together every day, you know, 0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:37.240 and from the off seasons training camp. These are the 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:38.959 kind of topics that you have when you when you're 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.480 building it, when you're building together as a football team. 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:43.720 And so you know, Patrick Queen be one of the 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:45.920 captains this week, he spoke to the guys and he 0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:48.720 brought that up in the UH, in the UH, in 0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.560 the post practice a little talkie gave there and and 0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:53.000 did a great job of it. But it wasn't anything 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.320 anybody wasn't thinking about. You know, we've it's one week 0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:56.560 at a time. You got to be want to know 0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:58.640 every week and that's what we're trying to do and 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.840 really want to know every day, want to know every drill, period, play. 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:03.080 That's what we shoot for. 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:15.560 One thing, it's doing the project to pay the taxi Thompson, 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:16.200 is there any. 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:17.200 Planers what kind of. 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:22.200 Well, I mean, there's some familiarity, but it's really more about, 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:24.760 uh how similar they are. Maybe the teams you've played 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:28.120 in the past, they actually have some similarities to Houston defensively, Uh, 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:31.079 the kind of the same family tree defensively, scheme wise. 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.640 So uh, that's something that we you know, we we 0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:36.360 can we can use to our advantage in some respect. 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:37.960 And there's it's kind of how it works around the league. 0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:41.600 I mean, certain it's kind of San Francisco Seattle Tree defensively, 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:45.360 So you you certainly you learn to understand how those 0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:47.239 different kind of groups of coaches operate. 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:53.519 Familiarity obviously Kennon drink back in the building, what was 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:57.120 behind that decision? And secondly, is there any injury issue 0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:58.840 or concernative maybe justice up. 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:00.960 Yeah, I'm just gonna leave all up to the injury report. 0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:02.760 It's not any to our advantage to talk about any 0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:04.120 of that stuff right now. So we're happy to have 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:07.720 Kenyan back, excited about him right now and everything plays 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:08.600 out the way he plays out. 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.640 What is he praying for? They don't other familiarity? 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:13.520 Oh yeah, I mean you know, he's talented. I mean 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:15.080 you've seen him. He had he was he was in 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:16.040 camp in pre season. 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:16.400 There. 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.360 Uh, he's fast. You know, he's an athletic guy, catches 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.079 balls out of the backfield. Probably a real good fit 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.080 in this offense. You know, it's funny. I was watching 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:26.720 the Bengals tape last week again from last year as 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.600 we were kind of preparing, and he was on the 0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:31.000 tape and he had had good games in those two 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:33.160 games he played, and I was saying, man, can you 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:34.640 drink really look good in those games? You know, It's 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:36.720 kind of like that, And then next thing, you know, 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:38.600 here he is. I mentioned that to him this morning 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:39.200 when he came in. 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:41.960 So you guys haven't allowed his first down in the 0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:42.760 first quarter yet. 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:44.680 No encourage are you about the pepa starts? 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:45.720 The defense has gotten out. 0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.680 Yeah, very encouraged, Very encouraged by the fast starts. That's 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:50.680 that's that's something we work on every day. We have 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:52.400 a fast start period in practice every day. We want 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:54.360 it to be good. I feel like the guys are 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:56.040 just locked in. But you know, you know, every every 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.000 every game is different. Sometimes you start, sometimes you finish. 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:00.920 I think we're trying and you know, just to take 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:02.760 it one series at a time and do the best 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:03.119 we can. 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.800 John, with guys like Ricari and you know Stone who 0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:08.960 for multiple years in a row don't come in as starters, 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:10.560 but then when you have to call on them, they 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.600 play like starters. Do you see a common trait between 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:15.280 those guys who are able to do that or. 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:18.960 That's a great question, childs. I mean, I guess you 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:22.159 can talk in terms of, you know, professionalism and tension 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:25.720 to detail and character and intelligence and toughness and all 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.159 those kind of things probably are the traits for guys 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:29.520 to be able to do that. Guys who are ready 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:31.400 because they get ready every day. It's not like all 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:32.960 of a sudden, all I gotta get ready to start now. 0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.679 You know they've been They've been considering themselves a starter 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:38.800 every day in practice from day one and preparing as such. 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.080 And then therefore when the time when the opportunity comes, 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:43.160 you know, they're ready. What's the old saying, when when 0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:46.440 preparation meets opportunity, that's the formula for success, right. It's 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:48.360 kind of a it's a truism, you know, and I 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.080 think those guys have shown that. 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.400 John, the entertainment sort of league question, and as a 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:56.960 Thumber special teams coach, do you see that play for 0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:00.680 Patriots ram to block the kid with the sort of 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.960 sideways going to see the shirt and and have you 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.920 ever seen a play like that if you think that could. 0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:08.400 Be something that they take out. 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:10.279 I haven't seen that. 0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:12.720 I thought it was a really great play, really really 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:13.520 well executed. 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:13.960 Uh. 0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:17.520 They were able to time up the uh the snap 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:19.320 operation perfectly. 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:19.640 Well. 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:21.880 Uh, it doesn't need to be ruled out because all 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:23.719 you have to do is change the temple of your snapcount. 0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:25.920 So it's more of a surprise play. I think now 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.320 people that you know for that to if that's something 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:29.839 they think a team might do against them, then they'll 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:31.719 just kind of change up the timing of the snap count. 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.160 But what a good idea that was, nig got it. 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:36.160 It was a great, great play, very I thought it 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:41.840 was brilliant in their their run backers. Yeah, that's the 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.479 number one issue for sure, Mike. I mean that front 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:46.680 is outstanding. The two tackles are two of the best 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:49.839 in the league. You know, uh, you know, Buckner obviously 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:54.200 pedigree guy, slippery guy, long plays hard and all kinds 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.440 of stuff. Then Stewart we loved him in the draft. 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.599 He's just a load in there, and he's and he's explosive, 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.120 talented guy to defense events coming off the edge. One 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.480 of the Michigan guy Quid he pay. You know, they 0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:06.479 play kind of classic to that style. And then inside backers, 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:09.760 I mean, you know, you've got forty four is flying 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.800 all over the field making plays left and right. And 0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:15.279 then Leonard, of course he's fifty three, he's he's we 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:16.800 all know about him. You know, he's been good for 0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.359 a really long time. And and so yeah, that's the 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:20.919 heart and soul of their defense right there. 0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:24.920 Jock's challenges are preparing it for two quarterbacks in the game. 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:28.960 The Prince style was whether Gardner or Andrew or coach and. 0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:31.760 You right now it was, Yeah, it's definitely Pete. Something 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:34.040 that we've got to take into account. I mean, there 0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:36.239 they run the same offense, but they run it differently, 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:38.160 you know, and they there's you know, one might lean 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:40.720 toward one area, another might lean toward another area more 0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:42.280 and you've got to play to the strengths to the quarterback. 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:44.360 So you've got to defend to the strengths to the quarterback. 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:47.400 And we've got to defend to the strengths of both 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:48.960 of those guys right now at this point in time. 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.120 But the offense is still kind of intact the way 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:52.600 they run it. So that's what we'll be looking at. 0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.359 John Muster first stepped in and played a really good game, 0:06:58.160 --> 0:06:59.120 you worrily. 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:00.200 You're relying on him. 0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:02.760 It's a kind of testament while these guys stepping up 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:05.839 just how we you know, much emphasis you wrout on 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:09.000 kind of the back roster building and finding different ways 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:09.960 to acquire players. 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:15.560 Yeah, uh, it is. I mean obviously, our our I 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.320 think our scouting department, personnel apartment is the best in 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:22.360 the league. You know, from Eric and Ozzy and and 0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:25.520 all the guys over there, they're just tremendous. Joe, Vince, George, 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:27.360 just a bunch of guys that do a great job 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:28.840 all the way on through the Gold group. So that's 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:31.080 one thing, and the other thing, you know, we you know, 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.400 try to coach guys. I mean, there's the development aspect 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.040 of everything. That's what I think everybody does, does their 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:37.960 best at that. But to me, the credit belongs to 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:40.679 the guys themselves, right, I mean, those are the guys 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:44.120 that are out there preparing themselves for the opportunity then 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:47.600 making the most of their opportunity. They certainly deserve the credit. 0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:49.560 You do it two more back when you had one. 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:52.120 I think I can count of the eight guys. 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:52.440 Time of being able to back. 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:54.360 Does that when they there you have to change the 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:58.160 practice at all. That's a good chunk. That's a great question. 0:07:58.240 --> 0:07:59.520 And uh no you really don't. 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:01.840 Because they banded the practice squads, you know, so that's 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.040 allowed us to maintain a good practice. So that was 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:07.240 a good move the NFL made in. 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:09.400 Terms of guys got a good meet Patrick. There's another 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:11.240 one of those last week, so I would wind all 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.720 over the field this year. He had a great season 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:17.280 last year obviously. What do you think it's been the 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:20.239 difference specifically from getting the last. 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:21.520 Year to the season. 0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:24.559 Right?
