1 00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: What's going on so good? Week one is always a 2 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: long unknown. How much is that when there's a new 3 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: important on the episode. Yeah, certainly there's a lot of unknown. 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: I mean, we haven't seen a lot of their guys 5 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: play together through the preseason. You know, coach Weaver's probably 6 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,319 Speaker 1: gonna have his stamp on it now. We're gonna certainly 7 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: study his past and not just him. There's a number 8 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: of coaches on their staff that have been involved in 9 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,319 Speaker 1: other systems that you're kind of keeping an eye on. 10 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: You may check a little bit, and the benefit is 11 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: you get some time to do that through the summer. 12 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: But then the the tough part about it is you 13 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: don't know. So it's kind of one of those things 14 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: that let's carry things we're really good at enough to 15 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 1: where we can adjust that the game goes and try 16 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: to figure it out as things are planning to put 17 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: our guys in best position. 18 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 2: For week one of the seasons always bigger than you 19 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: would be for a home game four five weeks in. 20 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: Or not necessarily, but there's there's just enough variety of 21 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: things that we do well that have good versus all answers. 22 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: There may be sometimes where you're very specific because we 23 00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: know these are the coverages, these are the pressures we're 24 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: getting things like that, and we pair some things down 25 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: that or maybe we have kills that just give us 26 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: the right play at the right time we're here. It's 27 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: kind of we may have to pivot in the middle 28 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: of the first quarter, whatever that may be, based on 29 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 1: where people are ligned, what they're playing, how it goes 30 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: From that same point, what's your sense. 31 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 3: Right now at about the offensive line as a group, 32 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: they really haven't had a whole lot of time together, 33 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 3: but yet you know, the offense is probably only going 34 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 3: to be as good as whatever that puts to get. 35 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're very confident in the work they've put in, 36 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: and that that's really all we can go off right now, 37 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: from April through training camp, through all of it, whether 38 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: it's the meetings, spending time together getting on the same 39 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: page communication wise, to the reps we see on the 40 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: field and the reps we spend time getting in the 41 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: walkthroughs that we've We've put a lot of time into 42 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: that and we're very confident in the way they'll play. 43 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: But again, that's that's the part of it. Let's go 44 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: see what happens. 45 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 3: You've got Camus as one of the captains and yet 46 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 3: more or is the veteran guy. I mean, from what 47 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 3: time do you do get to spend in the offensive 48 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: line room who looks like they are sort of the 49 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 3: enforcer in the room, if there is such a term 50 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 3: that can be applied to any of them. 51 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I think there's a lot of veteran 52 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: presence in that room. Cam, Mitch, Brandon. Those three guys 53 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: are probably the guys kind of spearhead the leadership of 54 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 1: that room itself, Mitch being a center and Luke being 55 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: a center. You hear those guys a lot because they're 56 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: involved in a lot of communication process. So those are 57 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: guys that are probably the most vocal. But then Brandon 58 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: and Cam and some of the guys they'll they'll speak 59 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: up as Well's. 60 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: Right, so I know you haven't had them a long. 61 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 2: Yat Lewis the guy from Wales you got for cancer. 62 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: You haven't him long and I though he's a practice 63 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: squad player, but the time you've had and to be 64 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: able to pick up on whether he's got some some 65 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: skills that I don't know to may come in to 66 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: play down the road. 67 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: It's got a great accent so it's fun to talk to. 68 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: No. 69 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: I think with him, it's just it's a new beginning 70 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: and even playing football's new, but playing receivers new. You know, 71 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: he played running back in Kansas City and so transitioning 72 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: to the receiver room kind of learning a little bit 73 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: more space to play in right there, and then you know, 74 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: right now, it's just him kind of trying to get 75 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: some sort of understanding of what we call things so 76 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: he can play fast and work his way through. But 77 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: as far as the individual drills, he's done a good 78 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: job so far. Scout team, He's had a couple of 79 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: plays here and there, so it's good. You know, it'll 80 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: be fun just to watch him continue to grow. 81 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 3: You talked at the start. 82 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: Of camp about sort of paring down the run game. 83 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: Just what did you see from the offensive line, how 84 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: they bought into doing that and the progress. 85 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 3: You guys have made there. 86 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the biggest things we've been able to 87 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: communicate pretty well, and our goal is just always have 88 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: eleven guys seeing it the exact same way every time out, 89 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: because we could have one run play, but it could 90 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: be you could block it ten different ways based on 91 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: the presentation of the defense. And so we want to 92 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: be really good about this is what we do. This 93 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: is all the looks you could get exposed to throughout 94 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: the course of the game. So then when you go 95 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: into a Week one with a lot of unknowns, we 96 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: kind of just lean back on what we've been doing 97 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: since April and we get everybody on the same page, 98 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: and we execute the down and then we get to 99 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: the sideline and we communicate and talk through what's the 100 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: best way to do this moving forward. But we're excited 101 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: about the work we've put into that and we want 102 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: to see what happens on Sunday. 103 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: What do you think is the biggest area of growth 104 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 3: for BT. 105 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: That's a good question. I think, just kind of understanding 106 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't know going into week one, especially when the 107 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: game plan hones in of being able to see, all right, 108 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: this is where they're going to use me, this is 109 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,119 Speaker 1: what this looks like at this certain time. I think, 110 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: even going back to the Atlanta preseason game, he caught 111 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: the crosser. You know, if you just watch the tape, 112 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: it's yeah, he's open, he gets up, he runs it 113 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: a certain way. We spent a lot of time as 114 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: a group just detailing that specific route and what it 115 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: looks like and all the different looks for it. So 116 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: then to see the way he ran it. He dove inside, 117 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: got vertical, stuck, his foot separated. That was exactly what 118 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: we talked about. So just to see him grow on 119 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: the little details, the little nuances of one simple little 120 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: route to where it carried over to game and then 121 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: you just kind of you've seen the confidence grow from him, 122 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: and I think that's a big thing of just I 123 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: don't think he was ever not confident himself, but you 124 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: just see confident in his ability to play, understanding the offense, 125 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: how they're using me, what they want me to do. 126 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: That type of Stuff's just been fun to watch and 127 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 1: I think it's just going to continue to grow with him. 128 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:23,239 Speaker 3: If continues to demonstrate in the regular season what he's 129 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: shown so far in the preseason. Can you emision in 130 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 3: an offense that has recently close to a fifty to 131 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 3: fifty balance, as hard as that is to do in 132 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 3: his NFL age with so much emphasis on the air. 133 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: Game, you're talking about fifty to fifty run pass or yeah, 134 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: back to the balance of it. Yeah, Yeah, I think 135 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: that's always the goal. I think a lot of it's 136 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: dictated by circumstances in a game. So obviously, games that 137 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: you're behind two scores, it may be a throw game. 138 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: At the end your numbers change, third and longer situations, again, 139 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: you're going to throw the ball a little bit more, 140 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: just an attempt to convert. So but as long as 141 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: you're managing the game and you're efficient in what it is, 142 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: and yes, the ideal game at the end of the 143 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: day would be a fifty to fifty split. Now, at 144 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: the same time, if we're having success throwing the ball 145 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: and that's the way we move the ball, I don't 146 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: care if we throw it one hundred times and run 147 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: at zero times. If we win the game that way, awesome. 148 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: If we have to run it one hundred times and 149 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: never throw it, as long as we win, awesome. We'll 150 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: do whatever. So at the end of the year, when 151 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: you look back and you're holding the Lombardi and you 152 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: let you we were fifty to fifty, that's awesome. Everybody 153 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: got so many touches as we spread the wealth. But 154 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: we'll do whatever it takes to win a game. I 155 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: don't we don't care who gets at how we do it. 156 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: But we're just trying to score one more point than 157 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: they do. At the end of the day, you expecting 158 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: a lot of simulated pressure from Miami's defense, and if so, 159 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: how do you prepare your guys for that? Yeah, I 160 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 1: mean again, we're looking into the Baltimore family, and so 161 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: if you look at that, that's certainly been a trend 162 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: of theirs recently, and I think that's kind of a 163 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: trend across the league, and that's been in college football 164 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: as well, working its way up, and so it's certainly 165 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: tough to deal with. That's something we'll prepare our guys for. 166 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: That's something we've been preparing guys for since April. We'll 167 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: spend a lot of time in the off season training 168 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: camp walk throughs of picking one flavor pressure package of 169 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: the day, and we just will ten reps of that 170 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: over and over and over so that when you get 171 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: into a game like this, we try to wrap everything 172 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: we could possibly we think we could see based on film. 173 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: But we also have our kind of we call them SOPs, 174 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: our standard operating procedure to fall back onto when it 175 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: comes out that, hey, we didn't practice this this week 176 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: on Wednesday, but we did in April, we did in August, 177 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: and camp and things like that. So the simulated pressures 178 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: are certainly thing that they've been very good at in Baltimore. 179 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: We expect to carry over into Miami. But again we'll 180 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: adjust as the game goes along. It's communication a big 181 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: part of that process. It's a huge part of it, 182 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,119 Speaker 1: and it's similar to the run game of just making 183 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: sure that we're all on the same page. We have 184 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: eleven guys see it the exact same way, or we're 185 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: in the protection world that we have seven eight guys 186 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: seeing it the exact same way, identifying who's the mic, 187 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: who are we going to, who's in the slide, who's not. 188 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: All these different things that come up, and that's a 189 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: big thing that you know, having a veteran center and 190 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: having a quarterback now in his fourth year and our 191 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: protection third year in our protection system, we feel pretty 192 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: good about being able to get on the same page quickly. 193 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: Thank thank
