Yeah, been on the field 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 2: a lot, and we walk by each other and usually 11 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 2: how we greet each other. 12 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 5: Bro hug, nothing more, nothing less, Thank you. 13 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: Did you realize where where things stand with that? 14 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 6: I mean, is it still stale? 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 1: Made in any progress? 16 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? No updates? 17 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 5: Tread Sea trenta Uh he. 18 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: Had a uh back spas it up the other day. 19 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: He should be good to go though soon. The Center 20 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: and how at Yeah, yeah he I think we think 21 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: he pulled his calf. Uh he did it an individual. 22 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 2: I didn't get to see it or anything, but I 23 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: was told that, so we think it was a calf trey. 24 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: And I looks like Cody Schrader is having a heck 25 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 3: of a camp. 26 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 4: What do you see it from Cody? I think Cody's 27 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 4: doing a good job. 28 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: You know, he's got a number of reps, you know, 29 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 2: especially having an injury with Isaac taking care of Christian 30 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 2: every few days. So he's taken advantage about his opportunities. 31 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 2: Really liked him coming out of college, and he's getting 32 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 2: bet better each day. 33 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 6: Gryth Daley was called a genius by dale with every day. 34 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 6: What have you seen from what his effect has been 35 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 6: on the defense? I know it hasn't been a ton 36 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 6: of time. 37 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 2: I mean just having him around with everybody. I mean 38 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: he works with the Nichols a lot. You know, he 39 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: really gets connect with those guys and Demo the most. 40 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: But just having his expertise with everybody in the meeting rooms, 41 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: with coaches talking about him, just philosophy, whether it's early 42 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,639 Speaker 2: in the morning, late at night, the way he connects 43 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 2: with players out there on the field, and he could 44 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: coach any position. We all know he's been a head coach, 45 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: he's been a coordinator, but anybody who was interested in football, 46 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: he brings. 47 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 4: Some of them table impressions on the kickoff I saw call. 48 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 4: I think there was like eight I heard. 49 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: I probably saw three of them and a kind of messy. 50 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: So a wait to see it on the coaches filmed. 51 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 2: Maybe see if we can figure some stuff out. But 52 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 2: we're all trying to learn. And that was the first 53 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: time everyone got to see it, so I think I 54 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: saw three of eight. So it was messy, but I'm 55 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: sure they will be throughout the preseason. We'll get as 56 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: much info as we can on it and adjust as 57 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: the year goes. 58 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, he had an ankle a few days ago. He 59 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 4: was close today. Hopefully it'll be good tomorrow. 60 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: Besides a number of times that the leap that players 61 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: can make from lookie the second year, when they're going 62 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: through their exit interviews, do you give a kind of 63 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: a special emphasis to the outgoing lookies and giving that 64 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: kind of message. 65 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 3: To them, We do. 66 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 4: I mean there's there's lots. I mean, you want him 67 00:02:58,840 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 4: to make that huge leap. 68 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: Also, the second year sometimes it's people's worst years too, 69 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 2: because a lot of people they finish college are trying 70 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: so hard to make it in the league. 71 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 4: They don't think about much. 72 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: They're just going as hard as they can, and then 73 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: that first season ends and they kind of sit back 74 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: and relax. They're like, all right, I get it now, 75 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 2: and they don't realize it, but they don't go through 76 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: the offseason the same way. They did getting prepared for 77 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: the NFL, and then it's halfway through training camp and 78 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 2: they realize, oh, man, I haven't made it yet. 79 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 4: It's totally different. 80 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: That's why a lot of guys you see a sophomore 81 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: slump too, but it usually goes one way or the other. 82 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 2: So you stress out as much as you can as 83 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 2: a head coach, a position coach. And I think the 84 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 2: strongest thing too is veteran players who've been through it 85 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: and seen it too. 86 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 7: When he was going with the ones and the threes, 87 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 7: is this, Yeah, what does that show you about a 88 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 7: player that you can do that? Is this a special 89 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 7: kind of time to see what he can do early 90 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 7: in his career. 91 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: Anytime a guy gets opportunities with some guys in front 92 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: of him getting injured, it's huge for him. 93 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 4: They get and we've got to practice. 94 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 2: You got a certain number of guys, so it's always 95 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: the next man up and you get those opportunities versus 96 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: the ones. 97 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 4: Defense. 98 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 2: Everyone gets to see you and there's gonna be some good, 99 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: some bad, but it's kind of how you react to it. 100 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 4: Do you get better each day from it? 101 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: And it's been cool watching him out there because he's 102 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: gotten that opportunity, and you can tell it's not too 103 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 2: big for him. 104 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 4: He's got to work through a lot of stuff. 105 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: It's a totally different game and going against totally different 106 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: type of defensive linement. But uh, you can tell he's 107 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 2: made it the right stuff and he's got what it takes. 108 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 2: And hopefully you'll continue to progress. 109 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 4: Block of practices. And do you like the trajector you're 110 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 4: seeing with your song? 111 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 2: I do. Yeah, it's been great to you know, always 112 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 2: it's tough when you have a hammy, and you've got 113 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 2: to be very smarting him and back. 114 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 4: We've eased him in. He's gone through that real well. 115 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 2: He's been real diligent with his rehab and stuff, and 116 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 2: I know his reps went up a little bit more today, 117 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: but it was a low day overall, and I think 118 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 2: tomorrow will be a much bigger challenge. It's a higher practice. 119 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: We got one on ones tomorrow, and but I've been 120 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: real happy with progress so far. 121 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: Practice. 122 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: But when that's not happening, obviously, you want to see 123 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 3: how these guys. 124 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 4: Are blocking and play. 125 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just because the all gets SOWNO doesn't mean 126 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: they did good or bad always. I mean, you get 127 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 2: zone eighty percent of the time out there, so I 128 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 2: didn't realize he didn't catch a pass. But when I 129 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: get in there, I'm gonna watch him run at least 130 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: sixteen routes during places, so like you know, you expect 131 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 2: everyone to catch it when it comes to you. So 132 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: that really doesn't affect me in terms of like what 133 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: we see from a practice. But it's been cool watching 134 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: him in the run game. He definitely understands our standard. 135 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 2: It's not someone we have to call in and be 136 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 2: like we need more. 137 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 4: He gets it. 138 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: He's doing everything he can and just continue to get 139 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: more reps and yeah, hamstring, Now that is a weekend 140 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: the camp. 141 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 3: Is there anything you've seen from him that shows you 142 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 3: if he's taking a step in any particular area either physically. 143 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 2: No. I think Brock was better his second year than 144 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 2: his first year. I think he'll be better his third 145 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 2: year than his second year. So just going through camp, 146 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: we've got through our seven day installs. I think we 147 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: wud say it was our first practice without new stuff 148 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: in and I will start circling back and isolating a 149 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 2: little bit more. But Brock takes every day the same, 150 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 2: and we put him in a bunch of positions and 151 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 2: I can't really say enough good things about Brock. 152 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 4: Signed him and what have you seen him since he 153 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:10,679 Speaker 4: got here in the off season. 154 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: And we were a big fan of Isaac coming out 155 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: of college, you know, back at BC, watched him throughout 156 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 2: his career in Denver, played against him, watching him in Washington. 157 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 2: Last year him getting that starting role, thought he played 158 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 2: at his highest level, and we thought he was playing 159 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 2: his best football last year. And since we've gotten him, 160 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 2: I feel even stronger about that. He had a hell 161 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 2: of an OTAs and so far he's having a hell 162 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 2: of a camp Mordecai. 163 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 7: On the field and in the meetings. 164 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 4: So far, he's done a good job. He hadn't gotten 165 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 4: too many reps we gave him. 166 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys were there that one 167 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 2: day or not. We gave him a few reps one day. 168 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: I expect him to get some more, sooner than later. 169 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 3: Was brought through seven interceptions and practices. 170 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 7: Do you were any of those? 171 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 3: And I realized that. 172 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 7: It's practice, and but do you look at any of 173 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 7: those is a situation where he's trying staff, he's trying 174 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,799 Speaker 7: to maybe fit something in hunt in a game. 175 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 6: Or some of those just bad decisions. 176 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, all the above, there's a different story on each play. 177 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I know all the stats are made a 178 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: big deal in practice, and I know that'll stick out too, 179 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: and you know, we never want a lot of picks 180 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: and practice, regardless of who it is. 181 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 5: But you know, Brock's never really had an interception problem. 182 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 2: He's protected the ball pretty well in this league for 183 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: his two years, and he also isn't scared to let. 184 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 4: A rip too when you're in proud. 185 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: You know, if if we were really trying to fix 186 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 2: that and if he had had a problem and you 187 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: come out and that's all we're focusing on and he's 188 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: still has some stats like that, then that's something that 189 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: concerned you. But that's something I really haven't been worried 190 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: about with brock On and that's why those stats are 191 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: also something that hasn't bothered me at all. 192 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 3: I know, you guys always try to manage the workload 193 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 3: for certain guys, and just given me the amount of 194 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 3: football your team has played the last three, four or 195 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 3: five years, have you had to change anything in terms of, 196 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 3: you know, trying to manage guys or maybe had more 197 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 3: guys with that day, anything like that. 198 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think in the off season more than anything. 199 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 2: I mean right now, when you manage guys too much, 200 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 2: it's it's great to get them in the season, but 201 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: then I actually feel more responsible because you know you 202 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: haven't prepared them for the season and the way. The 203 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: whole goal is to get to the season and be 204 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: ready to play football. And that's why you do have 205 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: to push guys in camp. You know, I feel we've 206 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: been one of the healthier teams in the league coming 207 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: out in these first five games and stuff, and I 208 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 2: feel that's because guys go hard in camp. So you've 209 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 2: got to be real smart with that and get guys prepared. 210 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 2: I do think in the off season though, like especially 211 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: this year, how long in the off season or how 212 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 2: short it's been, I think it's a mental break just 213 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 2: as much as anything. You know, guys not here as 214 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 2: much in phase one. In Phase two, you know, guys 215 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 2: who've been around and stuff that didn't nearly bother me 216 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: as much in the past. I mean, guys needed to 217 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 2: get away. We know what we put into this, we 218 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: know how long it goes, and not just with your body, 219 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: but the mind. I think, more than anything, I'm not 220 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: sure you guys led the league in out eleven personnel 221 00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: and you yards but carry are you tied? 222 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 5: Is it as simple as one teams McCaffrey, one team 223 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 5: asmor like these? 224 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 3: Are you guys evolving? How would you pinpoint your success 225 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 3: last year at all? 226 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: I mean without me studying that exactly, I think it's 227 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: probably didn't run the ball quite as much as other 228 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: people in eleven, so you've got a little less opportunities. 229 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 2: And I think we ran it pretty good in all personnels, 230 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 2: but we're not running it as much in eleven, especially 231 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 2: at the end of the game, so you probably don't 232 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: get as many one yard carries zero yard carries when 233 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: you're just trying to run out the clock. So I 234 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 2: think that could help those stats. But I mean we 235 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 2: try to be successful in every personnel. It doesn't really 236 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: we don't look at it as ones better than the other. 237 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 2: It's how it affects the defense. 238 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 6: Youve been seeing your safeties play out. I know Teleto 239 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 6: might be ready for read one of them, which you're 240 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 6: out there. I've seen a lot of George Odem sometimes 241 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 6: a couple of you younger guys. 242 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean just like the guard situation. I mean 243 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 2: when you when you have your starter out with Huff 244 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: and everything. It's given a lot of guys opportunities and OTAs. 245 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 2: And now it was awesome getting g a ton of 246 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 2: reps rot as he's doing the same thing. Now he's 247 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: doing a hell of a job at safety having all 248 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,719 Speaker 2: these rookies come in and not have to you know, 249 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 2: rotate in there with the starters and stuff. 250 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 5: I mean, they get thrown into the fire and they've 251 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 5: all stepped up very well. 252 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: It hasn't been too big for anyone yet, and it'll 253 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 2: be interesting to see how that position pans out. He's 254 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 2: not having surgery. Still be about the timeline. I told 255 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 2: you guys, he's not gonna have surgery like Nick Sorens. 256 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 7: And what's he gonna be like in a in a 257 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 7: practice as a coordinator. Definitely looks like he's he's a presence. 258 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 7: Are you at all watching for that? And is it 259 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 7: all surprise you what kind of presence. 260 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:38,719 Speaker 6: He is in these practices? 261 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 5: Not really, I don't really watch the presence that much. 262 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 4: I I just like people to be themselves. 263 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 2: So like, the worst thing is someone comes out there 264 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 2: and tries to show you, guys their presence. 265 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 4: That would probably bother me. 266 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 5: So I just like how Nick coaches. He's not just 267 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 5: bothered me. The stuff usually bothers. 268 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 4: Players more than anything. They know when people are acting, 269 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 4: and they know when people are genuine, and we. 270 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: All get fired up about football, we all get excited 271 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: when a guy makes a play, and we all are 272 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: upset when something goes wrong. And next a very consistent human, 273 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: consistent person. He's very intelligent, very honest with these guys. 274 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 2: And one of the things I like the most about 275 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: Nick is he's always his true self every day. 276 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 7: Are you going to be Do you think you're gonna 277 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 7: be talking with Brandon a lot during games? Is that 278 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 7: kind of part of what his role is going to be? 279 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: Not really, I mean most of the talk is about 280 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 2: x's and o's and stuff that just happened, which is 281 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: pertaining to the next play call and getting ready. 282 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 4: More offensively, you talk to someone too much. 283 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 5: Throughout the game and you can't make quick decisions. 284 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: You got to be pretty focused, and I think that stuff. 285 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: It's good to have someone who has experienced like that 286 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: to talk to after the game. If there's something that 287 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: I would want his expertise on, no doubt, I want 288 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 2: to hesitate. 289 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 4: But there's not a lot of just chit chat going on. 290 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 4: It's very personnel driven. Who's in the game. 291 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 2: On defense, who's in it, And on offense you're trying 292 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 2: to get play calls out. There's a time, there's a 293 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 2: play clock, and it's mainly dealing with the quarterback. 294 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 6: It's brought to your special teams here or you reluctant 295 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 6: as the word at all, but to have him be 296 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 6: a starting safety because it would reduce his special team 297 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 6: to play. 298 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I mean George is one of 299 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: the best special teams players in the league. But I 300 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 2: mean if he's the right guy at safety and he 301 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 2: gives us the best chance to win at safety, you 302 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 2: never confuse those two. I mean, you got to go 303 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 2: there first. You'd love for you don't want that to 304 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 2: fully take away his role on special teams. So when 305 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: you're that special of a player, I mean, we're going 306 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: to try to find a way to put them on both. 307 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 2: But it would take away from reps and stuff. But 308 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: you're out there a lot more at safety, so you'd 309 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 2: have to go with what's more important first. All right, 310 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: Thanks guys,
