What's involved in that 43 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: plan and how do you piece that together. 44 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: We were just looking back and just trying to get 45 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: everybody together and say, hey, what can we do that 46 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: maybe we've wanted to do or thought about doing on 47 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: a short week and just exhaust every avenue, giving guys ivs. 48 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 2: Before we left Tampa. 49 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm having the massage therapists everybody on all hands on 50 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: deck here, but also having a schedule. You know, our 51 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: assistant trainer went around, Mike Bauming around and scheduled everybody 52 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: so that there could be like a flow chart. 53 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 2: And guys didn't walk in at eleven thirty and. 54 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: Said, well, I can't get a massage because Morgan Moses 55 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: is already on a table. So it was you know, 56 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: let's let's make sure that this is planned out and 57 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: there's some thought to it and give our players the 58 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: best opportunity to recover. 59 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: So that's what we did. 60 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 5: Mike, what did you see from the defense on New 61 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 5: York's opening drive? And why do you think it's just 62 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 5: been so difficult to get that stop on the opening 63 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 5: possession this season with a. 64 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: Quarterback the night you know what I mean, We couldn't 65 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: faster than most of the guys we got and they 66 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: knew a good enough job. So we recovered a little bit, 67 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we'll have to try to continue 68 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: to be better there. But you know, there's there's plenty 69 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: of opportunities and places where we play good defense, and 70 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: I have to remember that that they can get a 71 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: first down and we can still stop them, you know, 72 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't have to be three and out 73 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: every time. 74 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 2: We left Mike. 75 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: Last two games, Jack Gibbons just had a lot of production. 76 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: How does she persona pie what you're building with this defense? 77 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 4: In terms of his importance to it now. 78 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: Doctor Gibbey always knows usually what to do, and for 79 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: the most part, he's usually in the right place at 80 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: the right time, sniffs out the screens. I mean just 81 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: kind of you know, seems to be in the right 82 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: place at the right time, does his job, usually. 83 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 2: Does it fairly well. 84 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: And it's a great teammate, cares deeply about his teammates, 85 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: and he's fun to coach, and he's a great person 86 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: to be around each and every day. 87 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 4: Mike Milton Williams went out, looked like he came back, 88 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 4: gave it a go. 89 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 2: Was it a situation where in a different situation than 90 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: maybe he could have Maybe. 91 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: Maybe I made it just a decision that it felt like, 92 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: you know, we should probably just start treating that thing 93 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: and get ahead of it and see where he's at 94 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: here tomorrow. In the next couple of days and you know, 95 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: try to weigh again. He wanted to try to go 96 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: and you know, say, he's out here standing with me 97 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: when guys are coming in and he's excited for him. 98 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: So I appreciate his leadership, but I just made a 99 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: decision that I felt like was best for the team 100 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 1: and that that, you know, for his instance. 101 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 4: Coach Mark Strassman CBS News, h it's good to see you, 102 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: uh working on a piece about Patriots fans. If you 103 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 4: look back in your eight years as a player, your 104 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 4: experiences as a visiting coach and that was a head coach, 105 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 4: what strikes you about this fan base. 106 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: Well, I think they're passionate. I think that they have 107 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: high expectations. I think that they are they're loyal, and 108 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: I think they're knowledgeable. I think they understand what it 109 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: is that they should be seeing. I think they, like 110 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: I said, we've got to give them reasons to cheer 111 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: and be excited. 112 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean I think we've done that. 113 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: I think that we've and they've in return have given 114 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: us a great atmosphere to play in front of. 115 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 2: Thank you, Mike. 116 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on Travon Henderson and what he's 117 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: brought the team. I would say the best, you know, 118 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: couple runs he had were they're late in the game 119 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: when it's tough sledding and we'ren five minutes and they 120 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: know we're gonna run and they're blitzing and everything else, 121 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: and looked like we were gonna be short, and he's 122 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: able to the knife through there and keep his pads 123 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: down and pick up a huge first down. So he's executed, 124 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: whether that's a checkdown or to touchdown in the back 125 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: of the end zone. And you know, no home runs tonight, 126 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: but I thought he grinded out pretty much what was there. 127 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: It's always you know, helped us a lot of ways tonight. 128 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: And saw the pile push touchdown, which was really cool. 129 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: And so I'm happy every time that, you know, guys 130 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: can help us and they can get into the end 131 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 1: zone and Christian Barmore can finally get the sack that 132 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: he's been looking for and he's had a lot of 133 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: pressures and he's been back there and you know, they work, 134 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: they work really hard, and then they I want him 135 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: to to all have success. 136 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: Last question, the Jets came in with one of the 137 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 2: best return units in the league. 138 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 4: What were you able to see on the initial viewing 139 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 4: that allowed you to slow them down and contain them. 140 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: Well, I thought we got off blocks. It didn't give 141 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: him a lot of space. You know, as schooler got 142 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: a triple team one time and went down there and 143 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: made to play. 144 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: We punted. 145 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: Well, you know, the gunners did a nice job. But 146 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: you're right, you know, they have a really good return unit. 147 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: I thought our kickoff coverage took a lot of pride, 148 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: and I think we've done a really good job of 149 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: covering kicks and so that was a good challenge and 150 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: they stood up to it. 151 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: That's a good unit and I was excited to watch it. 152 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: You know, bring some energy to the sidelines. 153 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: I told you, if everybody's going to get up off 154 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: the bench, we better give them something to cheer about. 155 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: So thank you, guys. Have a good weekend.
