1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: Jackson looking pretty good again. Play. I mean, how would 2 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: kind of size performance to what you saw? Yeah? Execute it? Well, yep, 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: what was that You put him on the field for 4 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: that one play? Yeah, you never know when you're gonna 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: have to go in So just part of the multiple 6 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: things we've done with a young quarterback years past where 7 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 1: it was before, and that would be good for him 8 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: for a play to get in there, not know that 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: he's going in there. He didn't know it for a 10 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: little screen pass for thirty doesn't hurt. How did you 11 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: know exactly you know you want them to be on 12 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 1: I didn't tell anybody. I didn't tell the coaches. I 13 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: didn't tell anybody. And why that exact moment I felt 14 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: like it you don't know what's going to happen. It's 15 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: been you know, just be ready to go when your 16 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 1: numbers called. Doesn't help. The darts done that in rad cancer, 17 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: he already had the month to day comes. Well, he 18 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: hasn't done exactly. I mean he's done that a little bit. Again. 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: It's just you're trying to put these young quarterbacks as 20 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: many situations as you can. So that's what we did. 21 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: Those situations. You quart him met Bryan throughout the camp 22 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: now into the preseason, is it fair to say you 23 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 1: feel like he's he's met with the expectations you guys have, 24 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: He's done what you wanted to see from in those situations. Yeah, 25 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: he's still got a lot to learn, but he's growing 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: every day. Like I said, that's that's why we drafted him, 27 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time with him, have a lot 28 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: of confidence in the young man. He's done a good 29 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: job for us since he's been here in every area 30 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: you could do off the field, on the field, leadership, moxie, intelligence. 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: But it's early, you know, we've played a couple of 32 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: preseason games against probably some vanilla looks. But he's he's 33 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: making strides every day, and that's all you can ask 34 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: of any young player at Like, you guys believed that, 35 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: you guys believed in him. You guys wanted him be 36 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: traded up. You've got him when he has when he 37 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: does these things, when he takes these moments. Is there 38 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: any like pride for you guys, like you believe the kid. No. 39 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: I just think we have a good you know, we 40 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: got a good you know relationship both you know, on 41 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: the field and in the building and outside and you 42 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: work as hard as you can as a coach or 43 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: as a player to get his you know, to keep 44 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: improving every day. And that's you know, that's what he's does. 45 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: He make mistakes, absolutely, make make mistakes, makes a lot 46 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: of them. I make a lot of them. But you 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: learn together, and you know, for a young quarterback, you 48 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: grow together. And that's what we're doing. You know, we're 49 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: making mistakes, We're trying to learn from them. We're making 50 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: some good plays to learn from those. That's where we're at, 51 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: early part of a young quarterbacks developments. Bull cons you 52 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: talk about it, but obviously came over to Big Plate tonight. Yeah, 53 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: I hit the one, hit the post them and what 54 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: a great ball by Ross, right, I mean eighty yard bomb, 55 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: dropped it in the bucket, great protection by the offensive line, 56 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: off in action ass really kind of just great vision 57 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: by Russ to lay it up there and we were 58 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: and in short whatever it was. And then you know 59 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: the second one where we threw the pick, the long one, 60 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: that's just some time on task we got to you know, 61 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: I can do a better job with that. I like 62 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: the aggressive nature of of the quarterbacks, all the quarterbacks 63 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: through a couple of picks, but they're downfield, they turn 64 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: it loose. They're convicted on their throws. They're convicted in 65 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: their vision. The guys work with what is what is 66 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: the next thing you'd like to see with Jackson? Keep 67 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: getting better? Yeah, do a good job of rehabbing tomorrow 68 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: whatever he needs to rehab, and you know, keep growing 69 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: in the offense and then we'll see, you know, we'll 70 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: see how it pans out on Thursday night. Well in 71 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: the preseason here you're talking about Jackson stuff. You said, 72 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: Russ's starter. Is there anything he can do to get 73 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: himself in that mix of just one? Yeah, Russ is 74 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: our starter and we're going to keep developing Jackson. Would 75 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: see jacket with Russ remaining starter? Mcdst What would you 76 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: like to see Jackson take some first team reps to 77 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: see what he could do against that competition as part 78 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: of his development? Yeah, we have, we have a plan. 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: We had a plan a while ago, you know, previous 80 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: stop we've had. We have a plan for this quarterback. 81 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: It's specific to each quarterback that you have. They have 82 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: to possess the traits that you cover it that you 83 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: look for in the draft. I think you just got 84 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: to keep working with him and understand there's going to 85 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: be you know, there's gonna be a lot of downs. 86 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: I know there's some ups right now, but there's gonna 87 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: be a lot of downs, and we just got to 88 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: keep growing and you know, communicating, just keep getting better 89 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: in Yeah, there's a lot of stuff that's in the 90 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: plan that's you know, started back in April, So keep 91 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: growing them. Buffalogs change pretty quickly. So I think to 92 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: Jordan's question, is there anything jack can do to force 93 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: you to change whatever plan you're Jackson just got to 94 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: continue to work to get better and we got to 95 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: help them get better. Drive to the starting off as Jackson, 96 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: because that was part of the plan. Yeah, it seems 97 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: to be an escalation of it, like him getting a 98 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: more of an opportunity that he's had. Well, there's I mean, 99 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: it's not We have strategy and a plan of trying 100 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: how to develop a young quarterback and that was that 101 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: was part of it tonight. The one play in, the 102 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: one play out, the reps, the situations, the situations and 103 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: practice in the red zone, unscripted periods, scripting plays and 104 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: then completely scrapping them and putting new plays in, having 105 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: them call his own play. I mean, there's a variety 106 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: of things that will continue to do, but he's doing nice. 107 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: Are you prepared you're developing it or are you preparing 108 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: it for the possibility of playing early this season. What 109 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: we're trying to do is help Jackson be the best 110 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: quarterback he can be, just like all the quarterbacks, just 111 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,679 Speaker 1: like all the players on the team. Would you James 112 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: Winston did some good things, you know. I know there's 113 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: a couple of plays that he'd like to have back. 114 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: Moved the ball down score points, but you know, I'd 115 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: like to finish with touchdowns rather than field goals. But 116 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: another guy that's working as hard as he can work 117 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: and doing a good job in our system and good leadership, 118 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: and glad we have them. Why did you so much 119 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: up tempo? I did James too, with Jackson too, because 120 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: we wanted to. Yeah, what did you see from from Russell? 121 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: Great shot? Again, we could we could clean up. That's 122 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: two guys that haven't worked a particular route, you know, Yeah, 123 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: that worked a particular route. Like I'm not too concerned 124 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: about that. You know, nice past to Hie there backed up. 125 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: It was good execute it well. When you talk about 126 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: your plan, Bryan, where does it? Where is it materialized? 127 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: You know what I mean like throughout your coaching career, 128 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: was it like, where did the beginning of it start 129 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: to come together and puts it together? Was it mostly 130 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: with Josh Buffalo of the plan become the I'll just 131 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: say this is unique to Jackson, you know, to our 132 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: plan with this with this player right here. You know, 133 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: you take a lot from your experiences where you've been 134 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: and who you've learned from and who you've watched play 135 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: quarterback or developed as a young player from a quarterback. 136 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: I mean some on the four strings. Some wasn't going 137 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: to play. Then a guy gets hurt or whatever it 138 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: may be. You know, again, we alter that, i'd say daily, 139 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: and we talk about it every night. It's a big 140 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: priority for us to help him improve. It's hard position 141 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: to play again. He's played two preseason games. He'll be 142 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: the first to say that. You know, there's not a 143 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: terribly difficult looks or anything like that. But I'm proud 144 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: of the way that he prepares. I'm proud of the 145 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: way he practices, the way he communicates, the way he executes. 146 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: Two more more, when you look at the offensive line, 147 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: obviously you mentioned another good job tonight with all guys 148 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: first shot, but also the confidence you had in the 149 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: offensive line when you were backed up in the end 150 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: zone for us to make a throw to high. Have 151 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: you seen this progression and development from this first unit 152 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: and is it different than maybe what you've had in 153 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: the lest over the year. Well, I think everybody helps 154 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: the offensive line out. You know, the offensive line has 155 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: done a nice job with the quarterbacks. Got to throw 156 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,559 Speaker 1: it on time, in rhythm, turn the trigger, pull the trigger, 157 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: should I say, when he's you know, sees it, let 158 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: it go. Back's got to protect receivers, got to run 159 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: the right depth of routes. It's it's an all, you know, 160 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: encompassing thing on an offensive football. Everybody's got to do 161 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: their job. For a play to work, you have to 162 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: have confidence in the players that they can go out 163 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: there and execute. But you know, confidence comes from seeing 164 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: them do it in practice, even though it's not a 165 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: live situation, or putting the ball in Russ's hands, who's 166 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: done in a variety of times, you know he's going 167 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: to make the right decision, or Jackson or Jamis or 168 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: Tommy whoever may be so, but they've done a nice job, 169 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: Homy sacks we have we had one on a naked 170 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: I think Dan, you should know that you've got all 171 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: the stats. No, okay, Connor, you no sense. I mean 172 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: having your starters play as much as they did first 173 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: game and then this game. Can you feel that the 174 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: team was more ready they they needed this? I mean 175 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: time will tell. So, I mean we had a target 176 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: of what we wanted to get, you know, like, for example, 177 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: the inside linebackers we were hoping for around twenty each. 178 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: So I was asking between every seas, where are we 179 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: at with Bobby, Oh, he's at fifteen? Where are we 180 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: at with Micah he's at twenty one or twenty? I 181 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: get bobbyo one more? Or where are we at with Darius? 182 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: He got twenty five? You know, we had how many 183 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: reps we wanted to get, So who was in there 184 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 1: when they were in there doesn't really necessarily mean anything. 185 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 1: It was a number of reps. We were trying to 186 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: get our guys to hit a sweet spot of the 187 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,839 Speaker 1: first game we've played and then the second game we played. 188 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: Now does that change a little bit with Drew Phillips 189 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: playing a nickel or Wandell playing a slot and the 190 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: personnel we're using, sure that that can happen. So then 191 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: you get to a certain point in the game and say, okay, 192 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: Wandell's only got seven reps. It's a second like we 193 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: don't need a play him anymore. But he only had seven. 194 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: But that was a byproduct of how we called the 195 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: game with CAFCO or how the Jets utilize them. So 196 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 1: Drew Phillips is in that's all it comes down to, 197 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: not like, well, you know, Bobby Okarek only had twenty, 198 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: but then he went into second like, that's not how 199 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: it works. What it works is we calculate the numbers. 200 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm talking to the coaches in between every series where 201 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: they're at target number. You know, flot had a couple 202 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: more than we were going to give them. I think 203 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: he had eighteen. We were shooting for roughly ten to twelve, 204 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: but they got in a little bit of a series 205 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: slateon and high we're right around ten to twelve, which 206 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: they got right around that area. So I'd say the 207 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: reps are all the rep counting that everybody's doing, and 208 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: I understand it, but there's a specific plan for it 209 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 1: and the reason why we do it
