1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 1: Guys, great, did you miss us? Yeah, I did. We'll

2
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: find out in a second.

3
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 2: Karen, Mike, you played Buffalo last week five late and

4
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 2: how much has changed should stand or is it film

5
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 2: for that game still viable for you?

6
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I think it's always viable.

7
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 3: There's a lot that's changed, but I think you can

8
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 3: kind of see some of the you know, play styles, matchups,

9
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 3: you know, things that they you know, they may come

10
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 3: back to or things that we need to be more

11
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 3: prepared for, and then you know, kind of use that

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,639
Speaker 3: as a place to kind of go from. And then

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: you know, again some of the things that they've done

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 3: really well, I'm sure they'll continue to do and add wrinkles,

15
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 3: and you know, it's a great challenge.

16
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 4: Like you emphasize nelset tea shirt team this week for your.

17
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: Team use a Hatton T shirt.

18
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 3: We're just trying to play for the championship that we

19
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,839
Speaker 3: have available this week, and I think it's a great

20
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 3: uh testament to to our players that put us in

21
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 3: this position to be able to do that. And again

22
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 3: that's it's not going to be easy. This is a

23
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 3: very good football team. There's a reason that they've won

24
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 3: this division five years in a row, a lot of

25
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 3: respect for him. You know, they're never out of it,

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 3: never down, and they may be down and just like

27
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 3: last week, you know, it's a football team that understands

28
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 3: that you know, somebody is going to make a play

29
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 3: and then they you know, the quarterback is going to

30
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 3: give them a chance to the very end.

31
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 1: You're six and oho is.

32
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 4: A head coach coming off the bat with Do you

33
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 4: understand me that it's different years, different teams, different.

34
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: Opponents all that.

35
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 4: Are there any sort of commonalities when it comes to

36
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 4: player focus?

37
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: Well, I think that you know, these guys have played

38
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: well and that's the most.

39
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 3: Important thing is focusing on what we can realistically try

40
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 3: to improve and it kind of enhance the stuff that

41
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 3: we've been doing, okay with what we'll try to do

42
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 3: today and and I know these guys got some some

43
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: rest and much needed rest, and you know, but we've

44
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 3: got to crank this thing back up.

45
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: It's in the bicycle. In the year, do you learn

46
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: just a little bit about yourself?

47
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 2: Self scaled?

48
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Or is the things that you look back on zo

49
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: you know this more?

50
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 4: Uh?

51
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 3: I mean, I think you kind of know by the

52
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 3: way that the season is going, but you know, it's

53
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: always a good time to take a take a look

54
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 3: at you know, what you've done and what they're looking at.

55
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: Analytically and try to you know, figure.

56
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 3: Some of that out and and or just say hey,

57
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 3: we're we're this is a staple of who we are,

58
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 3: and this is what we're gonna do, and you know,

59
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 3: try to be good at it.

60
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: Like you mentioned, we start to buy that you're expecting

61
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 4: some players after this speak?

62
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 2: Do you have me injury updates on players?

63
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, some of those guys made practice today. I think

64
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 3: for sure Wednesday, you know, some of those guys that

65
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 3: weren't available, and we'll kind of just see where they're

66
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 3: at today. But I think will be okay come Wednesday.

67
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 4: My teams lie along rookies and ship went right in

68
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,119
Speaker 4: the free joint process.

69
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 2: They brought into solid group.

70
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm.

71
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 3: I think we'll get into the player evaluation and scouting

72
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: and principles and all that stuff later.

73
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 4: You know.

74
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: I think you just you have to rely on, uh,

75
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 3: you know, young guys at your draft. Hopefully you know

76
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 3: you can develop them and have them ready. You know,

77
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: some of them have played a larger role than others,

78
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 3: and some of them were kind of coming on, and

79
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 3: you know that they understand their role, that they have

80
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 3: confidence and continue to prove. I think by and large

81
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: the group has done that. We'll need, you know, a

82
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 3: lot of a lot more from them as we move on,

83
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 3: as we continue, especially this week, you know, and then

84
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 3: we can talk about, you know, how we target players

85
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 3: and things like that later mirror experience.

86
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: As a player and the coach red zone offense.

87
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 4: What are some of the common threads you've seen over

88
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 4: the years that make a successful red zone offense other

89
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 4: than obvious scoring touchdowns like what.

90
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: Recent Well, you have to have positive plays.

91
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: You can't go backwards, you can't have penalties that derail drives.

92
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 3: Precision is critical.

93
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: You know.

94
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 3: Precision is critical that you know space is limited. Things

95
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 3: happen so much quicker down there. So well, we'll have

96
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 3: to score and turn those opportunities in the touchdowns, and.

97
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: We'll have to to do a better job defensively when

98
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: they do get down there.

99
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 4: Mike, when Drake was first drafted, there's a lot of

100
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 4: comparisons made to Josh Allen. Now that things have kind

101
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 4: of played out of it, do you see them being

102
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 4: more similar or dissimilar in how they approach the game.

103
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: I think they're both really good at what they do.

104
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: You know, Josh probably got a couple of LB's on them,

105
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 3: and you can kind of throw his his shoulder, and they're.

106
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: Probably a little bit more that I would rather want

107
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: Drake to But I think they're both great competitors. I

108
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: think they're.

109
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 3: Uh, you know, a lot of respect for Josh and

110
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 3: just his ability to make something out of nothing. I've

111
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 3: enjoyed watching Drake's growth here, but I'm not going to

112
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 3: say one's certain way and one's the other. I just

113
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 3: huge challenge going against the quarterback that's under control, he

114
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,679
Speaker 3: has got command and just it doesn't look panicked or rattled,

115
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 3: and when you Russiam or get them into the right

116
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 3: play call and.

117
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: Whatever, that may be just a.

118
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 3: Excellent you know, obviously, MVP quarterbacks like you guys.

119
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 4: Are playing for a division championship this weekend. I'm curious, though,

120
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 4: you refer to your players, both of us and then

121
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 4: with them after the game one day as champions or

122
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 4: you know, you competed like champions champions.

123
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 2: And are satisfied.

124
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: Why why use that word when referring to your teeth.

125
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: I think you're probably just reading too much into it.

126
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: You guys got too much time since the last time

127
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:36,239
Speaker 1: we talked.

128
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 3: I don't know, I apologize. I could call them something else,

129
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 3: but then you guys would yell at.

130
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: Me for using that language, Like there's.

131
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: A bit of a weird one.

132
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 4: But coming out of the by doing something kind of

133
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 4: league wide on the trend of teams posting after a win.

134
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: That yeah, since you first became a lot of pressure.

135
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 4: Legim like, has it changed your minds at all?

136
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 1: Going in there knowing that fans are gonna see.

137
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: Everything you do and say, well, they don't, I mean

138
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 3: we I get the final say you know what I mean,

139
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 3: Like Stretch can edit that to make it look as

140
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: good as you want.

141
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: I think it's Here's what I do.

142
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 3: I think that our content team does a fantastic job

143
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 3: and the content teams across the league to bring our

144
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 3: fans really great access something that's inside the locker room

145
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: as quickly as they can get that turned around, and

146
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 3: so I appreciate what they do.

147
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: I think it's fantastic. You know, I don't give it

148
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: much thought.

149
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 3: Until I need to start thinking about it, because I

150
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 3: don't want to, you know, look ridiculous. I'm glad that

151
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 3: They've given me plenty of opportunities to have some excitement

152
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 3: in there that That's what I appreciate the most is

153
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 3: from the players giving us an opportunity, and then the

154
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 3: content team to continue to deliver really authentic content to

155
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 3: our fans.

156
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: Do you watch any other coaches and how they do it?

157
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 3: Uh?

158
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: No, I mean I'm not taking my shirt off. I

159
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: can promise you that No, I didn't. I've not I've

160
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: not practiced in the office. Coaches might not.

161
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 3: Care if the fans have access to that kind of stuff.

162
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: Why is it important to you for the fans to

163
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: have with the coach? I mean, this is you know,

164
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 1: we we're in entertainment business. We we we that's it's

165
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: a large part of what we do.

166
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 4: You know.

167
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 3: I think that that's important that our fans have some

168
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 3: connection to our team to be able to come out

169
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 3: of here to training camp starting you know, in July.

170
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 3: I think that's important. I think it's important that that

171
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 3: our fans can come into the stadium and watch a scrimmage.

172
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 3: I think it's important that again they have things to

173
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 3: cheer about Sundays and when we play. I think it's

174
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: important that they see our players in the community that

175
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 3: not only as players, but but men trying to make

176
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 3: a difference in trying to make an impact and help.

177
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 3: So the more that we can do and the more

178
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 3: that we can share with our fans, the better.

179
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: The strength of the wide receiver unit is the unit?

180
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: Why is it so important to spread of all around equits?

181
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 3: And I think just you know, so that they can't

182
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 3: sit there and key on one guy or say, you know,

183
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 3: this is where it's going. And I think that's the

184
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 3: kind of the way that the group is built. You know,

185
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 3: some other years and may be different, but that's that's

186
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 3: what it is this year, and that's that's what I

187
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 3: think is best for us, and that's kind of what

188
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 3: it's proven to be. Just on those locker room moments,

189
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 3: I've heard you differentiate between motivate and inspire, and your

190
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: job is really the latter, not before.

191
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,599
Speaker 2: Are those moments moments where you can inspire guys or

192
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 2: is that does that happen at a different time.

193
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's very inspiring. I'm sure they're

194
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 3: looking to get a shower and get the hell out

195
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 3: of there. I would imagine that they want that short

196
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 3: and sweet. At least I would always.

197
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: Want that.

198
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 3: You know that game day is a long day, starts early,

199
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 3: especially the night games. I try to, you know, there

200
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 3: are some things I say to them before and leading

201
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 3: up to the game, and that that plays out and

202
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 3: it plays true, and I try to remind them and

203
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 3: you know, thank them for understanding what it is we

204
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 3: are trying to get done.

205
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: Thanks, Thanks guys. Wednesday
