1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,880
Speaker 1: What have you learned about Brian Burns so far?

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously the talent is evident, skill sets unique. I

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 2: think just his approach day in and day out. He's

4
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 2: taking on leadership role in that room. I think it's

5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 2: evolving for us in the in the unit. But really

6
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: ultimate pro is how he goes about his business. He

7
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 2: wants to be around one of the premier players in

8
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: this leagues and he works that way.

9
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 3: You think there's another level for him to get to.

10
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 4: Right, He's already a really good player in this league.

11
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: He's a Pro Bowl player in this league. Is there

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: another level that you think he could take? Absolutely?

13
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: Like what waste can he get there?

14
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 4: Yeah?

15
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 2: Absolutely? I hope he does take it to a new

16
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,959
Speaker 2: level I do. I think just continuing to be consistent

17
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,639
Speaker 2: to make sure he takes advantage of his opportunities when

18
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: he gets chances to rush. I think the complementary piece

19
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 2: of what we have up front is probably going to

20
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: help him a little bit too. Having Dex, having KT,

21
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: having whoever ever that fourth guy is, I think that's

22
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: going to play a role. But I hope all these

23
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: guys are striving to achieve more than what they've achieved

24
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 2: and have goals beyond of what has been so far

25
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: that they can go try to attain for themselves and

26
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 2: obviously for US coaches.

27
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 3: Isaiah Simmons, he's starting to define a role in what

28
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 3: you want him to do. In his defense, Are you

29
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 3: still kind of mixing matching with him?

30
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's done a good job. I think he's played

31
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: a little sub back or for us in some of

32
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: those passing situations. He's been inside on early downs for us.

33
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 2: I think he's continued to improve right and find some

34
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 2: comfort in the places that we put him. Up to

35
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 2: this point, I've been pleased with him so far throughout camp.

36
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 2: I have seen growth from him. I have to be

37
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 2: in some unfamiliar positions at times, especially out there on

38
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: early downs. I think he's done a good job of

39
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 2: kind of understanding, being able to turn the page and

40
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 2: progress in his understanding, not just only his role. So

41
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: I've been encouraged by him and hopefully that continues.

42
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 4: You said, whoever that fourth guy is when you're talking

43
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,279
Speaker 4: about the front, who is standing out aside from Daxon

44
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 4: Notch obviously as a role to but who else you?

45
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think not has done some good things. I

46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: think writers done some good things. I think Elijah's done

47
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 2: some good things in there. So disease possibly like who

48
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 2: knows where that goes, But I think they've all kind

49
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: of done some good things when they've had their opportunities

50
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 2: to rush and there with that group.

51
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: You guys seem to challenge Cavan to take a step

52
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: this year. Do you think he's had a really good

53
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: camp so far? And what do you like about?

54
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

55
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: I do.

56
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: The one thing I've noticed with Kavon is I think

57
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: he's he's working hard to improve, Like I think he

58
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 2: wants to take that next step. It's not just us.

59
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: We're going to continue to push him, but I think

60
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 2: consistently you you've felt him a little bit more out

61
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: there each day. I haven't seen many law days from them,

62
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 2: but it hasn't really been the roller coaster ride. He's

63
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: done a good job I think accepting the challenge and

64
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: accepting the way we want those guys to play the

65
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: placele was involved with that position, the expectation obviously Charlie

66
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 2: has for that position. I have for that position. I

67
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 2: coached that position, right, So I think he's done a

68
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 2: good job accepting that and he's working hard, and there's

69
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: there's been improvement.

70
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 4: Where second cornerback cornerback opposite Tay Banks.

71
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: Obviously Cordell's helped them.

72
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Flat's been hurt, so he hasn't been out there.

73
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 2: I think Nick's done a really good job. Like we've

74
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 2: moved him out there, He's had opportunity. So they're gonna

75
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 2: keep battling it out. We'll kind of see where it goes.

76
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: But those two guys have done a good job. I

77
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: think Hawk had a really good game last week. He

78
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 2: was challenging guys. He had a few PBUs. I thought

79
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: he showed up in the run game. So I think

80
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: he's He's done a good job for us out there,

81
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: so you know, continue to compete and those guys battled

82
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: out and kind of see where it goes.

83
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 3: Is that a area I mean as a defenseve coordinator,

84
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: I'm sure there's twelve areas of concern, right but is

85
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 3: that as an area of specific concern for.

86
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 2: You right now? I think it's just an area we

87
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 2: haven't totally made a decision on right I think that's

88
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: just where we're at right now. We're working these guys,

89
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: trying to find the best eleven as a unit together

90
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 2: and who those pieces are doesn't always come down to

91
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: possibly even the most talented player right across the board.

92
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 2: It's it's finding the best eleven for us. Not really

93
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: area of concern as much as just something we're continuing

94
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: to work through.

95
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 3: Many times we don't see the annual workings of a team.

96
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 3: When you guys make a trade, Let's say, Jordan Phillips,

97
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 3: I mean, do they come up to you and say

98
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 3: do you need them or how does that work?

99
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll let uh, I'll let Dave's and Joe kind

100
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 2: of address that. I think Daves is coming up here

101
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 2: here in a little bit, so I'll let him kind

102
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 2: of talk about rosters, decisions and kind of how that

103
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 2: goes out.

104
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 4: Fos offully in your history, do you like having the

105
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 4: number one corner travel with the receiver or do you

106
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 4: just kind of prefer play sides.

107
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 2: I think it depends by game plan, who you're going against, matchups, right,

108
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 2: skill sets of who our guy is, who their guy is,

109
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 2: how they match up. I mean, I'm not I'm not

110
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 2: opposed to it, especially in certain situations. But at the

111
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 2: same time, as soon as you do some of that

112
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 2: stuff at times it shows your hand to So it's

113
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: ultimately what you're trying to get across scheme wise, just

114
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 2: pre snap alignment, what information you're willing to give the quarterback.

115
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: Some of that comes into play, but not opposed in

116
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 2: doing it.

117
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: You only let up three points in the first game.

118
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: What tenants of your defense do you feel like? Kind

119
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: of stood out that you got some reinforcement on in

120
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: the production.

121
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: Won't give it to me one more time.

122
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: Like, what did what tenants of your defense that you've

123
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: been preaching and teaching your team put on the field.

124
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: I think the thing I was most proud of was

125
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 2: probably their resolve. Right they had some drives on us,

126
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: and our guys kept playing. They turned the page and

127
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: focused on the next play, and we found stops in

128
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 2: the red zone, we found stops on fourth down, we

129
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 2: found turnovers. That's what this league is, right, Like those

130
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: guys get paid too. We're gonna have to be able

131
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: to continue to play the next play and not worry

132
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 2: about what happened, but focus more on what was about

133
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: to happen. So I was extremely pleased with that. I

134
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 2: felt they played physical for the most part, showed up

135
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 2: in the run game. I thought we were square playing

136
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: with our hands. There's some technique things we continue got

137
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 2: we have to continue to work on. But I felt

138
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 2: like they were swarming, flying around. I think just naturally

139
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 2: just the style of play, right, Like, it's not like

140
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 2: we're going into these games game plan a whole lot. Like,

141
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 2: it's more about getting evaluations and hopefully as a unit,

142
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 2: continue to progress our style play and how we want

143
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 2: to attack each down.

144
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 5: You mentioned disease before and just you know where he

145
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 5: fits obviously with all the attention on Kman and Burns,

146
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 5: what have you seen from his ease so far? And

147
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 5: why would he be an option to maybe be that

148
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 5: fourth guy up front with Dex and the.

149
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's had a really good camp, I do.

150
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: I think I think he's been consistent. Like I think

151
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: he's flashed throughout camp. Each day there's usually a player

152
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 2: or too. I'm I'm like, okay, it's a great play, right.

153
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 2: So that's something I've been pleased with him about, is

154
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 2: just the progression and being able to be the same

155
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 2: guy every day and again when you get to those

156
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: passing situations, it is finding the best for whoever that is.

157
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: And however we got to coordinate it to be able

158
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 2: to get to the quarterback, right. So I mean he

159
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: gives you a lot of versatility in that regard. I

160
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 2: think Burns gives you some versatility. KT gives you some

161
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 2: versatility in that regard. It's just a matter of where

162
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 2: you place them, right. If you got three edge guys

163
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: on the field where there's only two edges, right, So

164
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 2: so it's where you place them, And that's something what

165
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 2: kind of work through as a staff as Again, some

166
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 2: of these personnel decisions unfold with the front guys as well.

167
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 5: And somebody argues who gets to the next to decks?

168
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 2: That's right, I was going to say, he's Tyler Nubin's

169
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 2: playmaking starting to stand out in practice now that he's

170
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 2: on the field. Yeah, it was good to see him

171
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 2: last week versus Detroit as well. Yeah, he continues to

172
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 2: get better, He continues to continues to improve each day.

173
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 2: I think the one thing with him is he's finally

174
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 2: out there, right, So he's healthy, even missing those for

175
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 2: two weeks, and and he's had he's had ground to

176
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: make up to get back in that competition, right, So

177
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 2: he's been good. He's taken advantage of opportunities, doesn't make

178
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: the same mistake twice like I've been encouraged by where

179
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 2: he's at right now,
