1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,000 Speaker 1: William just up there. 2 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:02,880 Speaker 2: Do you check him to be able to go? 3 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, I do go ahead too. I was just wondering, I'm. 4 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 2: Still working through that one right now. Yeah, I still 5 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 2: get it's a great day for him to be able 6 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: to get an opportunity to continue to see what that 7 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 2: looks like and still got really two days, three days actually. 8 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,479 Speaker 2: In terms of Eric Murray, what is shoot out to 9 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 2: you about his approach and as professionalism. 10 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, Eric's a guy that I mean really when he speaks, 11 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: it means something. 12 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 2: He's he knows how to talk to everybody, like every 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,919 Speaker 2: all walks of life he can communicate with. He's not 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,840 Speaker 2: necessarily an overly chatty person. So when he does have 15 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: comments and have points to make, you know, I think 16 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: most people are really paying attention. He's been very diligent 17 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: about his preparation and ownership of the back end in 18 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 2: terms of the communication in and then Man he played 19 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: physical and opportunistic as well. So was was really Yeah, 20 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: a couple of things got to clean up. But I've 21 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 2: been very pleased with Eric saw Jordan. 22 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: Eric said, you know, you really wanted a communication and 23 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: back end. 24 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 2: Have you seen that kind of resonate through last Sunday 25 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: and through practice. Absolutely, you know, those two were definitely 26 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: guys that we wanted to target early in the in 27 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 2: the process and have those those areas of improvement that 28 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 2: we were looking for, you know, have showed up. They've 29 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 2: showed up kind of since they both got here. So 30 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 2: it was immediate in a lot of ways. But ultimately, 31 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: your your teammates and everybody are going to truly trust 32 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: you and believe when you put it on tape and 33 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: actually on a Sunday ball game. So I think both 34 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: of those guys making plays on Sunday only helped their cause. 35 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: What Tyson, since you got here and I mean how 36 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 2: big of the challenge is for him this week? Yeah, 37 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: I mean a guy that has embraced everything around here 38 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: in terms of the way that he's tried to go 39 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: about working in the off season program. You know, his 40 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: conditioning just he's been in great shape. You know, obviously 41 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 2: he's been battling you know. I mean that's the one 42 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 2: thing about Tyson is when he plays with confidence and 43 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 2: he trusts and believes in his abilities that he has, 44 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: you know, he can be dominant. 45 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: He can be dominant. 46 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 2: It's just a continuing to have that belief that you win, 47 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: go get your hands on people like go use your length, 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: go use your traits to go play physical and take 49 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 2: the fight to them. That is going to be key 50 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: and critical this week obviously not just for Tyson, but 51 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: for our whole unit in the back end especially. But 52 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: I do think that Tyson has continued to do this 53 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: and now this is a great challenge for him against 54 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: quality opponents. What are your go and chooses? Played fest 55 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: Coal on the ball earlier your coaching career, is there 56 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: a coach or something or else you really sort of 57 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: stressed out PORTSBA technique in front of Meal standpoint? Well, 58 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 2: I mean I threw the ball as a high school 59 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 2: quarterback for my dad like ten times a game. So 60 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 2: it started as a young where it was instilled for sure, 61 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 2: and then as you you know, go throughout the process 62 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 2: in the in the coaching profession. I was really fortunate 63 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 2: in college as a player to play for Don Brown, 64 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 2: you know, who was a defensive head coach that was 65 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: so in college it was then also brought to me 66 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: that way. And then obviously when you go and work 67 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: for for Sean, you know you think of him. I 68 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: guess a lot of people like as you know this. 69 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: You know Star Wars the ball is going over the place. 70 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: But he was a tight ends coach in Washington before 71 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 2: he became a coordinator, and so a lot of the 72 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 2: run game details and mindset and mentality do come from that. 73 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: And so like when I got there, I learned, you know, 74 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 2: past concepts or past concepts, You learn a lot about 75 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: the details in the NFL versus maybe where I was 76 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 2: that at main, but the plays were similar. The detail 77 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: in the run game and his ownership of the run 78 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: game as an offensive head coach. I thought that was 79 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: what made him different. And I learned so much about 80 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: more so about the defense than just the offensive scheme. 81 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: It's like, okay, how did these blocks or these motions 82 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 2: affect the defense? And mastering that so he's always won. 83 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 2: I mean we ran the ball really well in twenty 84 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: eighteen when we went to the super Bowl. You know, 85 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 2: it's always been on top of mind for him, and 86 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 2: that's a lot of it. Kind of the detail the 87 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 2: run game came there. The mindset probably started at a 88 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: younger age. 89 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: Did you book your. 90 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: Travsy can to go? 91 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: We might have something here as a. 92 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: Perfect fit iness offense, because obviously last years coming out 93 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 2: this forty year, right, So that's the first day he 94 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: watched was last year, it was, but I I, you know, 95 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: I had an opportunity throughout that process after I got 96 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 2: the job, you know, I went all the way, you know, 97 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 2: went back to twenty two twenty three, a lot of 98 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: twenty two twenty three I watched, and man, you saw 99 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: a guy get ball in space and made people miss and. 100 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: Hit the holes hard. 101 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: And you know, sometimes his timing and circumstances happened, and 102 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: the way that he was portrayed coming off of a 103 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: tough year, coming into a new setting, you know. 104 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: Just everybody, Hey, everybody's got a freshop here. 105 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 2: Really, he took advantage of it the way he you know, 106 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: it took some time early on in terms of understanding 107 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 2: the demands and the standards. Was once he really got 108 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: on the same page, it's it's been doing this so 109 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: I've really appreciated his preparation of the system is not 110 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 2: in the way that obviously you know, he played on 111 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: Sunday made that week or whatever that would have made 112 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 2: trading tank kind of more. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, no, no question, 113 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: that's it was a it was a you know, a 114 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: luxury to have where you're sitting there just because you 115 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 2: don't know. You really don't know until you get into 116 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 2: a game, and not that one game is you know, 117 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 2: the expectation. 118 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: He's had a high. 119 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 2: Standard in Week one, which is awesome, you know, to 120 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: expect the one hundred and forty, you know, whatever it 121 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 2: is each week. But I've just been pleased with the 122 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 2: way he's gone about it, and he obviously proved it 123 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: on Sunday. Challenging is it to prepare for al golden 124 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: NFL defense but you've only got one game to go 125 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 2: off of with the Bengals, It's definitely you look at 126 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 2: especially short yardage goal on certain specific settings in or situations, 127 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: and you don't have a lot of inventory, so you 128 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 2: you do have to have an idea of notre name 129 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 2: what they did, situational calls, two point plays, got to habits, 130 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 2: all those. You don't really have a ton of evidence 131 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 2: from Cleveland, you know, past this past week, so we've 132 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 2: had to dive into it, which does make it challenging 133 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 2: for sure, where there's just an unknown, almost like going 134 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 2: back into a Week one game a little bit where 135 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 2: you're like, we could definitely see someone scouted looks here 136 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 2: some things that we did not see from last week? 137 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 2: All right, what could those be and how do we 138 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: adjust to those in game? Those are the conversations we've 139 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 2: had all week, more about like what could come up 140 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: that showed up in Notre Dame that maybe didn't show 141 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,679 Speaker 2: up against Cleveland. But they played salty, they played hard. 142 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: I've got a ton of respect for coach Golden and 143 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: obviously Zach, but they played hard, they played physical. You 144 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 2: know a lot of man coverage too. So we'll have 145 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: to see how how they adjust and how we can 146 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 2: adjust from there. 147 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: Week one, Yeah we did, Yeah we did. 148 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 2: In Week one. Didn't challenge to do that back. 149 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: To bad weeks? Or is that just you? I think 150 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 1: we'll see, you know, I think we'll see. 151 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 2: It's definitely an expectator, like it's something that we have 152 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: preached and talked about pretty relentlessly. So you're hoping that 153 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 2: that's becoming a part of your DNA and part of 154 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 2: your identity. But I think in the NFL, with the 155 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: amount of games that these guys play, it's definitely. 156 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: Challenging to go out and do it week in and 157 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: week out. 158 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: Like some games, the past game is going to have 159 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: to come really alive for us to go win, right, Like, 160 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 2: there's some games where the run game carries you. 161 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: There's some games that the past game carries you. You 162 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: want balance, We all want balance. 163 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 2: To say that you're gonna execute perfect balance each week. 164 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 2: Is why the defensive guys get paid. So that's where 165 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 2: the balance, though comes in and creates is once we 166 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: get good at both, well, if they're stopping one, you 167 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: get to deploy the other and still have success within 168 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 2: a game you've loved. You know, you want to sit 169 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 2: there and say, yes, we rest for two hundred yards 170 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 2: and we threw for two hundred and twenty five a 171 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 2: game like. 172 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: That's the ideal, that's the goal. 173 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: But others, you know, some games may change who gets in, 174 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: what part of the group gets deployed more just based 175 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 2: on what you know, how we're doing and how the 176 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: defense is doing. Pretty good, appreciate it.
