Speaker 1: Stretch?

21
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 4: Well, I, at least on television, sounded like almost like

22
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 4: a home game yesterday. These fans travel for your coach.

23
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: Well, we we've we've talked about giving reasons to travel

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 2: or reasons to cheer. We appreciate it. Uh. I certainly

25
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 2: love seeing everybody around the hotel when we got there

26
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: and on the way to the game and at the game,

27
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: and again that's we appreciate that, and we're thankful of that.

28
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: We know that that's not those trips aren't easy or cheap.

29
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 2: You know what I mean that those are commitments, and

30
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: we appreciate that from our fans.

31
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 3: Mike.

32
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 5: One of the areas where you guys really had a

33
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 5: tremendous job was the Running Game.

34
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: True this.

35
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 4: Tremaine Wiggins, former New England Patriots tight end.

36
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: Tremaine Wiggins.

37
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 3: Oh okay, all right, good morning till Stretch. I said,

38
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 3: what's up.

39
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 4: He's not going to say it himself, but he is

40
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 4: somewhat upset that Rob Gronkowski announced he will sign a

41
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 4: one day contract to retire as a New England Patriot

42
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 4: tight end, and Wiggy is. I don't know if Stretch

43
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 4: can do anything about this, but Wiggy is still still

44
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 4: waiting for his offer on that on the one day.

45
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 2: Or Wiggy, we could we can have you sign a

46
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: blank piece of paper, make it look like it's a contract.

47
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: Don't worry.

48
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 3: I appreciate that.

49
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 2: I how they do those things. Those aren't even real contracts.

50
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, I appreciate that. I'd prefer the salary anyway.

51
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 2: I didn't do that anybody. I didn't do that either.

52
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: No worry, she got a red jet.

53
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: It wasn't it was it wasn't that important.

54
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 5: Well, I haven't still I technically haven't retired, So you

55
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 5: never never never.

56
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 3: Know when you that's a good one.

57
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 5: When you look at your running game, what was the

58
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 5: difference yesterday versus previous weeks where you guys were really

59
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 5: able to take advantage of of, you know, making some

60
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 5: big plays in your running game.

61
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I think that's really what it comes

62
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: down to, is being able to break a couple of those.

63
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: And we knew going in it was going to be tough,

64
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: tough sledding. It's a good run defense, it's a good defense.

65
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,399
Speaker 2: It's a big, physical defense. And I thought the way

66
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 2: that the game was it allowed us to stay in

67
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 2: that mode of being able to stay balanced and run

68
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,839
Speaker 2: the football. And you know, there were some clunkers in there.

69
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: I get it, and I've been through that before and

70
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: then and then you break one, and then obviously at

71
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 2: the end of the game, they're being able to break

72
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 2: the one there in a five minutes. So I think

73
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 2: it just comes down to, you know, when you when

74
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: you have to when you hit those big ones in

75
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: this league or any league, you're going to have to

76
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 2: block the secondary and somebody's gonna have to make somebody

77
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 2: miss or break a tackle. That's just kind of what happened.

78
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: So I think we were able to get the secondary

79
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 2: force and then we ran away from from the guy

80
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 2: that we needed to that we didn't have blocked. You.

81
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 4: You appreciate Trayvon checking with you on the go ahead

82
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 4: on going into the end zone on that well, I.

83
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: Mean, obviously you know where we didn't want to win

84
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: in those situations, we don't want to run out of bound,

85
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: but the score gets a little different. I mean they

86
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 2: had two time outs left, so I think that being

87
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: able to do that for for Trayvion was the right thing.

88
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: I'm glad that you know he checked and was conscious

89
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 2: of it. It just you know, when we get into

90
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 2: those situations out in the field, you know, we want

91
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 2: to be conscious of staying in bounds. So I think

92
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 2: he did exactly what what we asked him to do.

93
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: They you know, they still had two time offs. We

94
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 2: know how hard it is to score against these guys

95
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 2: inside the five yard line.

96
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 6: Mike Courtney here Travion, for I.

97
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: Figured as much, Corny, I didn't think that Curtis's voice

98
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:44,679
Speaker 2: had gotten any higher.

99
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 4: I just want to share, actually, after what you said

100
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 4: to him last week, it did get it got very.

101
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 7: I actually told the employee to say he got an accident,

102
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 7: so we didn't have to be in person.

103
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 2: He's fine, he's fine, and thanks for asking.

104
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:01,679
Speaker 3: When it comes to.

105
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 2: It was a single car accident. They ran into the

106
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: guard apparently.

107
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 6: Oh gosh, it was rainy out there this morning, so

108
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 6: thinking them, Maddie. When it comes to Travon, a lot

109
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 6: of people calling this is coming out performance. Where do

110
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 6: you stand on that? And should we expect to see

111
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 6: a lot more from him moving forward?

112
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 2: Well, I hope we can expect. They'll we expect to

113
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: see a lot more from from everybody, you know. I mean,

114
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: that's what we're going to need. We're gonna need great

115
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 2: performances from from our coaching staff, from our players, from

116
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 2: everybody involved. I don't know coming out party. I mean,

117
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 2: Travon's had some good plays that really helped us. But

118
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 2: you know, being able to hit a couple of home

119
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: runs yesterday was critical.

120
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,239
Speaker 4: You went forward end of the third quarter on fourth

121
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 4: and five, you got first and goal about a minute

122
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 4: and thirty seconds left in the half, and you got

123
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 4: the kind of sneak that's not intended to get in

124
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 4: those decisions. I think you know, looking at them from

125
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 4: the outside, we sit here and go, Wow, this guy's

126
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 4: got big you know, big giant cajones. How is it

127
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 4: when it when it comes to you making those decisions

128
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 4: in game?

129
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: Are you? Are you always going to tend to go

130
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: for it?

131
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I think just based on what I felt

132
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 2: like we needed and you know, to be able to

133
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: you know, we were going to need that to score

134
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: some points and I didn't know if the field goal

135
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 2: right there was going to be enough. And felt good

136
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 2: about our guys and you know, with critical situations you

137
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: think about players and not plays, and so in that situation,

138
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: Drake and Diggs came through and made that decision the

139
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 2: right one.

140
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 5: Mike, you always talk about how hot it is to

141
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 5: win in the NFL, but a sign of a good

142
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 5: football team is being able to win a number of

143
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 5: ways and win on the road. What was your message

144
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 5: to the team after a win down in Tampa? Uh,

145
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 5: to show talk about to show like, hey, we are

146
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 5: a good football team and we know how difficult it

147
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 5: is to win in this league weekend and week out.

148
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I don't necessarily tell them that we're

149
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 2: a good football team. I mean, we're we're being I mean,

150
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 2: I don't mean it like that. I just say that

151
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 2: that's not part of the message. The message was yesterday

152
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: was that this is Wednesday night and tomorrow morning it's

153
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 2: going to be Thursday, and we have to think of

154
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 2: it like that. Uh. As you continue to perform in

155
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: this league and win, each and every week gets gets

156
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: bigger and bigger and more important. And I'm proud of

157
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 2: the fact that, you know, we went on the road

158
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 2: against a good team, competed, made enough players to help

159
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 2: us win. Can still find ways to improve and have

160
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: to improve in areas, but it was about, you know,

161
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 2: making sure that we're doing everything we can to win

162
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: the physical recovery matchup and suggests this week.

163
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 7: Mike, the performance from Steph Diggs yesterday was excellent again

164
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 7: obviously a big role in the passing game and took

165
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 7: the lick to get the on side kick to seal

166
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 7: the win. What is it about him that you may

167
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 7: have did you expect this from him? And the second

168
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 7: part is the unselfish nature of your receiving corps week

169
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 7: to week, Where yesterday Matt Collins is a big day

170
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 7: Pop Douglas doesn't have quite the numbers and the ability

171
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 7: of those guys to accept their roles. Is that from

172
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 7: Steph Diggs? Do you think that his leadership has allowed

173
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 7: those other guys.

174
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: To do that.

175
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 2: I think it was just providing a competitive environment. I

176
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 2: think that you know, they've it's proven that most of

177
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: the time that when you're open, the quarterback is going

178
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 2: to be able to get you the ball, and that's

179
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 2: proven to be factual. So I think that they they

180
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 2: support each other. I think they realized that this is

181
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 2: what it's going to be. You know that everybody's gonna play,

182
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: and everybody's going to have a role, and each and

183
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: every week you have to just be ready for when

184
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: those things come up. And certainly Steph is leading that

185
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: group and Mac is and I appreciate that, and Todd Downing's,

186
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 2: you know, done a really good job of making sure

187
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 2: that those guys are prepared for multiple positions in multiple spots,

188
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 2: and you know, we're gonna need we're gonna need all

189
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 2: that we can get here, come moving forward until you know,

190
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 2: case Shawan's back, and then we'll continue to do what

191
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 2: we've done.

192
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 4: On the Drake interception, look like you were uh telling

193
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 4: him to calm down before that play. Is is that

194
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 4: just a young quarterback who's who's trying to force a

195
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 4: play there?

196
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I mean I think that that's just you know,

197
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 2: extending down in the red zone and making a bad

198
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: decision and you know understand that it's not there. If

199
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 2: the play is not there that the we had designed,

200
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: and if he didn't like it, well then that's sometimes

201
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 2: it happens. And then you extend. And then now when

202
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: you extend, you got to make great decisions, and that

203
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 2: that wasn't one of them.

204
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 6: Drake struggled a little bit when the weather turned. The

205
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 6: rain obviously a factor. How do you make sure that

206
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 6: that gets better as the season goes on if you

207
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 6: have more games with bad weather.

208
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, we just make sure we weren't play in bad

209
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: weather games. Corny that I could control that too.

210
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 6: So I just didn't know if you had like a

211
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 6: rain simulator at practice.

212
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 3: I don't know technology.

213
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: I go to the did I got the thirty minute

214
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 2: mass the night before the games? That we're good, I'll

215
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 2: pray for good weather.

216
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 3: Use the wet wet balls.

217
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 5: Mike, you always talk to me, Go ahead, what no,

218
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 5: I was going to say?

219
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 3: What U's the wet balls that got you? Mike? You

220
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 3: always talk about.

221
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: I think it was singular. I don't think it was plural.

222
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 5: The wet ball, right, You always talk about, you know,

223
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 5: being able to fix some of the issues, you know,

224
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 5: some of the mistakes that you might have made throughout

225
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 5: the game. If you look at the first touchdown by Injigba,

226
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 5: was it like a blown coverage? It looked like you

227
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 5: guys might have been in man and Maccus Jones might

228
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 5: have thought it was his own call. Is it something

229
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 5: that you know based off of looking at them, everybody.

230
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 2: Knew what the call was. Okay, yeah, I mean everybody

231
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 2: knew what the call was. It just wasn't executed correctly.

232
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 2: And you know, give them credit, they made a play,

233
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: We didn't it.

234
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 3: Mike.

235
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 7: Last week you said that after the deadline that you

236
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 7: don't really you can't be half pregnant. Either a deal

237
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 7: is done or it's not. H Were you trying to

238
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 7: get pregnant and deals fell through or was this something

239
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 7: where you approached the deadline and saw the amount of

240
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 7: picks that you needed to hit on next year and

241
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 7: you saw that they were too valuable to give up

242
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 7: for short term rentals.

243
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I don't think and again I wasn't.

244
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess I'm trying to be funny sometimes

245
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 2: I don't know, I'm just saying like, it either gets

246
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 2: done or it doesn't. Everybody in the personnel department worked,

247
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 2: you know, try to be diligent. But we we didn't

248
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 2: feel like just adding players to add players were there

249
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 2: was conversations about different things, and those things didn't work out,

250
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: and you know, just decided that it wasn't the right

251
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: right thing for us. And you know, that's kind of

252
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 2: where it was. And so, you know, moving forward here,

253
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 2: we'll have to find ways to you know, especially this

254
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: week on a short week, I'll figure out who we have,

255
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 2: who's available, and where we can we can try to

256
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 2: you know, add add some players or do some players

257
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 2: from the private squad.

258
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 4: There was some talk that the philosophy is kind of

259
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 4: this is just year one of a bunch of them.

260
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 4: Is that kind of the way you guys are looking

261
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 4: at it down there?

262
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 2: Uh, well, it is. It's it is year one. We're

263
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: not going to be able to change that. I don't

264
00:12:55,280 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: think that, you know, yeah, I mean, I think that

265
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 2: we're just trying to make good sound decisions for the

266
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: football team, for our players, for everybody involved, and when

267
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 2: we feel like there's good decisions to be made, we'll

268
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 2: try to make them. But you know, I don't I

269
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 2: wouldn't read into too much of that, Like we're I

270
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: just think that it was kind of how it went,

271
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, we're going to do everything we

272
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 2: can't each and every week to win, to put our

273
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 2: guys in a good position, try to manage the game

274
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: and let them let them go make make plays and

275
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 2: and continue to grow.

276
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 4: Always like to give you the chance on this show

277
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 4: to clear things up that are floating around out in

278
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 4: the out in the ether. And there was a report

279
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 4: last week that the Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk was

280
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 4: unwilling to talk trades with this team.

281
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 1: Is is that accurate or is that just nonsense?

282
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: I have talked to Amy since the day she fired me,

283
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 2: So her name and my name should not be in

284
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: the same sentence together because I haven't talked to her

285
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 2: since the day she fired me.

286
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 6: You keep bringing up the short week. Obviously after the game,

287
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 6: you kept talking about how the guys earned being tired.

288
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 6: How do you balance getting ready for the Jets on

289
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 6: Thursday while also making sure these guys are well arrested.

290
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, today's I mean, it's not gonna be much physical activity,

291
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 2: like a like a week normal week at Wiggie's house.

292
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: It's not gonna be a lot.

293
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 3: Of that's a good one.

294
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 2: Not much activity then, and so so we just have

295
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 2: to try to get the mental prep. And again, all

296
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 2: hands are on deck this morning, Jim Balm and Frank

297
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 2: and everybody and his staff and then all hands are

298
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 2: on deck this morning so that we can get guys in,

299
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 2: get them through massages, get them through treatment, and get

300
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: them through a recovery lift. Everything that we could possibly

301
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 2: do well, we're going to try to do and offer.

302
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 2: We tried to schedule guys out so there's a flow

303
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: chart that everybody can get in and get you know,

304
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 2: work through the day, because you know, guys come in

305
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: eleven thirty. It's say, well, hey, there's not a massage available. Well, yeah,

306
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 2: that's because there's veterans that are out here. So we

307
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 2: have to start some of these younger guys in here earlier.

308
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 2: So again I'm proud of what the plan that we

309
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 2: had in place. Then we'll look too far ahead, but

310
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 2: some of this stuff you have to plan for and say, hey,

311
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: you know make sure we're signing up for this is

312
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 2: when the This is when you're gonna start your recovery

313
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 2: on Monday, work through the different modalities that we have

314
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: and then we'll have a squad at one o'clock some

315
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: meetings and walk through and get them some more rest

316
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 2: and kind of do the same thing on Tuesday.

317
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 4: I couldn't see it that well on television yesterday. How

318
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 4: is the November stash coming in?

319
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: Not bad?

320
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 3: I mean not bad?

321
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 2: I think that you know, I mean if by the

322
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 2: end of this week it should be pretty good. But

323
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 2: you know, it is important they understand how how important

324
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 2: our health is. And certainly being able to focus on

325
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: the prostate cancer and mental health and thankful for Jeannette

326
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 2: for supporting us and what we do here, and you know,

327
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 2: Big T going through it, I think makes it even

328
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: more special and near and dear to our heart. And

329
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 2: I think there's some other people here around the building

330
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: that are partaking in it. They just you know, may

331
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: not be as dark as mine, but stretches rocking it.

332
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 2: And there's other people in the building that are rocking

333
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 2: the status here, so we'll be in full force.

334
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: You might tell me to pump the brakes.

335
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 4: But does this team remind you at all of the

336
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 4: two thousand and one team.

337
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that poor guy that got into the accident,

338
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 2: and it pumped the brakes here a little bit this morning.

339
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: But huh no, I mean that team in two thousand

340
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 2: and one, it was five and five, won nine games

341
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 2: after Thanksgiving. You know, I do think that the season

342
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 2: starts now, you know, the the NFL season. Uh, this

343
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,919
Speaker 2: is when it starts, and we'll have to be playing

344
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 2: our best each and every week to give ourselves a chance.

345
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 2: And so I know the comparisons and things are you know,

346
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 2: kind of interesting, but there we know that they're not

347
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 2: that important.

348
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 3: Mike.

349
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 5: There was there was a point in time where they

350
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 5: showed us on the broadcast yesterday late in game, had

351
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 5: you talking to the defense and looked like it was

352
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 5: a passionate conversation. Maybe after a touchdown. What was your

353
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 5: message to the defense in that moment?

354
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 2: I remember, play better, you know what I mean, cover

355
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 2: tackle rush, you know, played better? Well.

356
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 7: They had the broadcast romo and nance. They had a

357
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 7: clone graphic of Drake May and Tom Brady and in

358
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 7: one showing how identical the numbers were. So maybe are

359
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 7: you seeing anything. I know, obviously you're not going to

360
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 7: say he's Tom Brady and he's not. Is there anything

361
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 7: about Drake May that gives you faith that he's someone

362
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 7: that's not going to get too high when things are

363
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 7: going well, and that he has a mindset similar to

364
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 7: other great quarterbacks in the past.

365
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 2: So their numbers in two thousand and one were the same.

366
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 7: There was a completion percentage, there was touchdown interception. I

367
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 7: don't know the rest of them, but it was a

368
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 7: graphic playing on the Brady cloning of his dog, and

369
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 7: they said, is this a.

370
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 1: Clone eerily similar, eerily similar?

371
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, I don't. I don't worry about Drake.

372
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 2: I think that he's going to stay motivated, stay committed

373
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 2: to this football team, and you know, he understands how

374
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 2: difficult it is in this league and the matchups and

375
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: the things that he has to do. And you know,

376
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 2: I'm excited that he continues to you know, lead this

377
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 2: team and have success and we'll just focus on on

378
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 2: on what we have this week with the Jets. And

379
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 2: he was already preparing last night on the plane.

380
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: Awesome, all right.

381
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 6: I was just going to say, it was a very

382
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 6: nice moment and showed what type of coach you are

383
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 6: when Christian Barmore went down and you were holding his hand.

384
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 6: A lot of people talking about that after, but it

385
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 6: was a nice moment to watch you and a player,

386
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 6: and you guys.

387
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 2: Put a lot out there for us. These guys. This

388
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 2: is about the players and it always will be. And

389
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 2: you know, I don't want to see any of them

390
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 2: go down, and I mean I don't and so you know,

391
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 2: they go out there and got it. I was getting tired.

392
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: We had some guyst wait, some guys go down. Yes,

393
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 2: I was getting tired going out there. But that's what

394
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: it takes, and that's what it takes. But it was

395
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 2: great to meet your husband last week. To you, Courtney.

396
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 2: I appreciate him coming up and saying hello, and it

397
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: was nice to meet him.

398
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: That was very nice.

399
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 6: He was very nervous coming up to you. He told

400
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 6: I was half asleep when he got home and told me,

401
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,199
Speaker 6: and he said he was shaking going up. I said, well,

402
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 6: I'm sure you nailed it.

403
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 3: Is he is?

404
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 4: He all bothered by the amount of times that you

405
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 4: have said on this show how attractive Mike Trable is.

406
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 3: No, so you're twisting words now.

407
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 1: I'm not twisting words.

408
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 6: There was a lead about how a lot of people,

409
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 6: both men and women, are talking about how he's the

410
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 6: most attractive coach in the NFL, and apparently the men

411
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 6: on this program don't have eyes.

412
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: I don't know if that is just I don't know

413
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 2: if that's true or not. You just you got to

414
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: have a pretty specific type then if that's the case.

415
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 2: But anyway, he was, he was awesome. It was nice

416
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: to meet him. And now you guys will have a

417
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:53,639
