1
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Ryan, could you just you know, other than wanting your

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: unit to give effort all the time, what is most

3
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 1: important to you in terms of stressing what you want

4
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: out of your unit.

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, good question. So first of all, we're going to

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 2: be kind of the overview of everything is is we

7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 2: want to be attacking and aggressive in everything that we do.

8
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 2: How we fit the run, how we attack blocks, how

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: we play coverage. We want to be a forward, leaning, forward, running,

10
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: going forward defense. And you're gonna say, well, what about

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,599
Speaker 2: in the secondary and backpedaling now of that, but when

12
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 2: we make our break, we're coming out of that break

13
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: to go hit you. And so that's kind of the

14
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 2: you know, the two things that every day that the

15
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 2: players come in we want to stress. There's some things

16
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: fundamental things that tackling takeaways, ball disruption in pursuit. And

17
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 2: that's what we're going to be about. Tackling takeaways, ball disruption.

18
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 2: You know, you have to be a good tackling defense

19
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 2: to be a good defense. Takeaways are the number one

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: way to limit points. Ball disruption is making the offense

21
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 2: play not on time. You know, we're taking away a

22
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 2: running lane or making a ball balance or disrupting the

23
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: quarterback and then pursuit, you know, keeping the ball inside

24
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 2: proper angles, you know, running and hitting, and so that's

25
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: what we're gonna be about. That's what we're gonna stress.

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: That will be the first thing we talk about with

27
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 2: the guys before we even start talking scheme or you know,

28
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 2: stance or anything like that. We'll start at That will

29
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: be our foundation and we'll go from there.

30
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 1: What made this an attractive landing spot for you.

31
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 2: A lot of things. So really, you know, when when

32
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 2: you start looking at an opportunity, you look at the

33
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: people in the building, You look at the head coach.

34
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: Coach Peterson did not know him personally before this, but

35
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: you do your research and you talk to people that

36
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 2: I've worked with him. Noam was fortunate to be on

37
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: a staff that had a coach that had worked for

38
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: Coach Peterson before, and he said some unbelievable things about him.

39
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: And then you started around just a couple of guys

40
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: just you know, you want to check and it's so

41
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: important that you work with good people. And we're so

42
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: close in this thing, and we spent so many hours

43
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: a day away from our families with these men in here,

44
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 2: and you want to be around good people. And so

45
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 2: that was the first thing. And then Trent, you know,

46
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: you hear the same things, you know, and so you

47
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 2: start working your way down, uh, mister Khan the owner,

48
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, what's the organization about? How is

49
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 2: the owner? And then didn't know that they built the

50
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: facility and then you start doing the roster research and

51
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 2: you kind of know a little bit. But then as

52
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 2: you start digging into this thing, you're like, you know what,

53
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 2: this is a great place. This is a place that

54
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 2: we want to bring our family to and be a

55
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 2: part of. This is a place that we want to

56
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: help take the next step. And so, you know, when

57
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 2: we kind of looked at the whole package and everything

58
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: that was going on, it was there was no doubt

59
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 2: this is.

60
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 3: Where we wanted to be in Disney World.

61
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 4: Yeah.

62
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

63
00:02:54,680 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: So so the first time the slip came in it

64
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: was denied. That's a whole nother story, but that's a

65
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 2: good story. And so we decided that, you know, we

66
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: had a little time off and that they were going

67
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: through their process and interviewing and things like that, and

68
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 2: so we took the family down. We took them down

69
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: to Disney World and we were on the Small World

70
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 2: and eventually the slip got granted permission for the slip,

71
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: and so we're sitting one and I've got our kids

72
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 2: and my wife's on the other end, and we just

73
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: sat down on the boat and got a text from

74
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 2: coach Peterson basically said hey Ryan as coach and we

75
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: would like to talk to you, you know that type

76
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: of deal. And I looked at my wife and I'm like,

77
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: how long is this going to be? Like I got

78
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: to make a call, right, And so you don't realize

79
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: I was on I can't remember last time I was

80
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 2: on a Small World, but it seemed about half an

81
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: hour that ride and eventually got off and it worked out.

82
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 2: But yeah, so that's how it all. And then we

83
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 2: were down there and it was really easy. Came up

84
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: for the interview and kind of went from there. So yeah,

85
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 2: it was pretty pretty interesting how it all worked out.

86
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 3: Who are some mentors who have really helped you get

87
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 3: to this point to view credit?

88
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, so played and worked for at Osroon. He was

89
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 2: a huge influence. Pete Jenkins defensive line coach for a

90
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 2: long long time. I have to give credit to Pete

91
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: Carroll my senior year at USC, he was the head coach,

92
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: and then there's been coaches and players over the years

93
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: that you know, it can't there's so many people that

94
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 2: you'd you'd want to mention one way or another, but

95
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: have been very blessed in that have been around Monti

96
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 2: Kiffen and Norm Chow, Alex Gibbs, like all these guys

97
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: over the years, and just you know, when I was

98
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: a younger coach, I really didn't I guess understand at

99
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 2: the time I was so young kind of all the

100
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: knowledge that when we were at Ole mess and and

101
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: these guys were coming in with you know, Ojeron was

102
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 2: the head coach and that man, it was just a

103
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: football education, and you kind of really didn't until years

104
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 2: later you went back into your notes and you're like, man,

105
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 2: that's you're very fortunate to be at a place at

106
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: that time. I wish we could have won a few

107
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: more games, but just for the football wise and football

108
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,679
Speaker 2: IQ is so that's kind of where the school. But really,

109
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 2: you know, even with the Arthur Smith last year, Sean

110
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 2: Payton in New Orleans, you know, you pick and and

111
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: you bring things that you like from everybody and learned

112
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 2: a lot from those guys and and Sean was huge

113
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 2: in the first opportunity and coaching in the NFL, and

114
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 2: so I'd be remiss not to mention him. But yeah,

115
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: I mean I could go on and on. There could

116
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 2: be an hour conversation, but that's kind of where the foundation.

117
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 3: Look that you had a chance to look at the roster.

118
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 3: What are your first impressions of the players you'll be coaching.

119
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that we're talented. We've got a talented group.

120
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 2: We've got some really good players in that. That's what

121
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 2: was excited intracted us about the job here. But look,

122
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 2: talent only gets you so far, right, and so we're

123
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: really excited to get to work with these guys. They

124
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 2: seem very eager. You know, you try to reach out

125
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 2: and just introductions, Hello, how you doing, you know, introduce

126
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: yourself things like that, and the staff and the guys

127
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 2: are seem very eager and to get going. Obviously, a

128
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 2: season just ended, so we you know, we need a

129
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 2: break and we're just getting going here staff wise. So

130
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 2: this is a good time. But it is a really

131
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: good time to start building relationships, which is really huge

132
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: what we do right, it's about relationships and people, and

133
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 2: so this is a great time that a couple of

134
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 2: these guys are just coming up, Hey coach, you know,

135
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 2: introduce and put a face with the name, things like that.

136
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 2: So it's been very positive.

137
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 5: Do you have any early thoughts at this point about

138
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 5: how you would like to use Trayvon Walker?

139
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: Obviously he's been mostly.

140
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 5: On the edge very I think there's like maybe ten

141
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 5: to a dozen plays last year where he moved inside.

142
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 5: Do you do you feel like he might be best suited

143
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,119
Speaker 5: playing more inside or or he not really gone really

144
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,239
Speaker 5: thought that through yet.

145
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 2: Here's kind of our philosophy with the players is we're

146
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 2: gonna put the player in a position that he can

147
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 2: have success first over the scheme, and so we're gonna

148
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 2: evaluate everything that he does well, and then if he

149
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: can rush inside, then we'll put him inside, Gene. If

150
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 2: he's more of a better outside rusher, we'll keep him outside. Yes,

151
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 2: we've evaluated those things, but ten snaps is not enough

152
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: to say that, yes, he can do that or he

153
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 2: can't do that, and so we'll identify that once we

154
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: get to OTAs and then you know, and so the

155
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: process is never ending, you know, and we'll put our

156
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 2: guys in the best positions for them to have success

157
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: and then ultimately we will have success on defense and

158
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 2: as a team.

159
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 6: You guys just mentioned it, but how important is it

160
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 6: for you to sort of mold, not necessarily mold the

161
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 6: players to your scheam, but maybe vice versa. And how

162
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 6: much did you learn sort of from going from New

163
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 6: Orleans with those type of players and going to Atlanta

164
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 6: with a different set of players. How different is it

165
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 6: and what.

166
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: Can you bring here that process? It was a really

167
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: good process. First at collaboration with the coaches that we

168
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 2: had brought in in Atlanta, and we got in there

169
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 2: and it was one of my favorite times coaching in

170
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: that we threw up a template and said, hey, this

171
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 2: is kind of what's been done before, let's make it us.

172
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 2: And that's the process that we're going through right now.

173
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 2: And so all the coaches are havingn input on what

174
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: we're doing, and so it's all of our defense. So

175
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 2: that's a really cool process. And then we've studied the

176
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 2: roster in that we have a pretty good idea of

177
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,719
Speaker 2: where that we'll start with our players, you know, and

178
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: some of the techniques that we would like to teach them,

179
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 2: and then and then we'll start moving them around to

180
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 2: see what else they can do well. And so there's

181
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: that process that we just did is we're kind of

182
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: doing it again. Some similarities and some differences, but the

183
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: ultimate is this is going to be Jacksonville's defense. This

184
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 2: is gonna be our defense of Jacksonville. Our players, our coaches,

185
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 2: our staff like that type of deal, and so it's

186
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: not any place that anybody's been. It's a collaborate effort

187
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 2: of all of ours together, and that's what you'll see

188
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 2: on Sundays.

189
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 6: I'm curious because everyone seems to think this defense is

190
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 6: man orient and everyone talks with the man the man

191
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 6: pressed man scheme that you deploy. Could you just walk

192
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 6: us through that it is? Is that the case or

193
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 6: what's the nuance there?

194
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: Well, we'd like to, as one of our coaches would

195
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: like to say, nothing cheap and nothing deep. And so

196
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 2: when you're press, you take away the quick game and

197
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 2: we like to play shell, which everybody you know, when

198
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: you look at us, we you know, take away the

199
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 2: deep throws. It may look man man or man ish

200
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 2: at times, but sometimes there's some press bail and some

201
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: nuances in the coverage of that. It actually is zoned

202
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: with tighter coverage outside and so that's actually good that

203
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 2: you see it like that, because if we're viewed like that,

204
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 2: then we drop in the zone. It could be advantageous

205
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 2: for you know, for us on defense. So yeah, we're

206
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: gonna be mixing a action. We play a lot different

207
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: coverages and and mix and matches our coverages and and

208
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 2: again that's what we did then and it may be

209
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: different now. And so that's what the process that we're

210
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 2: going through with the players. But we definitely we have

211
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 2: everything in there is just what what are we going

212
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: to start with? We know where we're starting, what's the ending,

213
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 2: what's it going to look like when we end? Because

214
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: the new coaches and the new players together and we

215
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 2: want to do what's best for everybody.

216
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 3: What does this team still mean that you see when

217
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 3: you look at what you guys are bringing and.

218
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 5: What you want to do.

219
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, really, like we talked about in the very beginning,

220
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: you know, we want to be an attacking, aggressive style

221
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 2: of defense that runs the ball, you know, that goes

222
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: and hunts the ball, you know, and just put the

223
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: pressure on the offense. You know. That's just what that

224
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 2: that we feel that we can bring. That's just the

225
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 2: style that we want to play and so we feel that,

226
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 2: you know, when we talk to to coach Peterson and

227
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 2: you know, compliments what we're doing on offense, and we

228
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 2: want to be very complimentary to the other side of

229
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 2: the ball, and you know, get them the ball as

230
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 2: much as possible and Trevor and you know, because they've

231
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 2: got a lot of talent over there and they're very

232
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 2: good and so look, we just want to do our

233
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 2: job and get the ball back to them as many

234
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 2: times as possible, and when we do that, we'll win

235
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 2: a lot of games. So really that's kind of the

236
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 2: you know, just keep giving the ball back to the

237
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 2: offense and in good field positions and and it'll be

238
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 2: good in the end.

239
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 4: Long are you with putting together defensive staff?

240
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 2: Okay, coach put that on the time.

241
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: They're getting close.

242
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's we have the pieces in place. It'll

243
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 2: be announced here uh soon. And so excited what we'll

244
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 2: say that's excited about the guys work with some of

245
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 2: them haven't worked with other coached a few and so

246
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 2: it's just it's a great group of guys that have

247
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 2: been very close to know that first and foremost good men. Secondly,

248
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 2: really good teachers, teachers of the game. And so when

249
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 2: you put those two things together, you know they're they're

250
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,719
Speaker 2: eager and excited. We see a lot of things similarities.

251
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 4: When you were talking to the guys and introducing yourself,

252
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,719
Speaker 4: did you get a sense from them that they are

253
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 4: eager to get back just to kind of really get

254
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 4: that taste out of their mouth after their way to

255
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 4: face kind of ended and kind of just turned the.

256
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 3: Faith on that.

257
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so, like you know, they need a break,

258
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 2: you know, and and so that's that kind of the

259
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: process now. But when you talk to them, they seem

260
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: very eager, asking good questions and what are we going

261
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 2: to be about and things like that, and you're kind

262
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 2: of gearing the conversation more towards the relationship pard and

263
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: really breaking the ice and getting to know them than

264
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 2: the football exits and know stuff, which we'll have plenty

265
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: of time to get to, you know, once OTA's and

266
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 2: the guys come back around and things like that, and

267
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 2: so don't want to start with that, and and we

268
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 2: have plenty of time for that later. It's more, you know,

269
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 2: getting into the families and things like that where they're from,

270
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 2: and you know, talking to them really and really getting

271
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 2: to know each other. I know you're mostly focusing on

272
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 2: their offense, but what'd you kind of learn just leading

273
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 2: up to when.

274
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: You guys faced them last year?

275
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 2: You really about this team some of the guys at that. Yeah,

276
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 2: we'll start with the quarterback, right, I mean, guys are

277
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 2: really good football player, big athletic, you make all the throws.

278
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 2: He runs well, physical offensive line skill in the receiver position,

279
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 2: tight end runs well, the heck of a back. Now,

280
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 2: a couple of backs, you know. So when you put

281
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: it all together, as we were looking, that's one of

282
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 2: the pieces and why we wanted to come down here

283
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 2: and be a part of this is they've got some

284
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 2: talent over there and some really good players, and so

285
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 2: we were talking about earlier, let's just give them the

286
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: ball back as many times as we can.

287
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: You mentioned teaching when putting together your staff.

288
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 3: That's one of the things a lot of your former

289
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 3: players have mentioned when talking about you.

290
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: How good of a teacher you are.

291
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 6: How important does that for being a coach in the

292
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 6: NFL these days?

293
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 2: It's very important? Right, I Mean it's you know, first

294
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 2: of all, there's a couple it's fundamentals, right, technique and

295
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 2: then scheme, and then putting it together. And so we

296
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 2: wanted men that are very talented in both aspects and

297
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 2: bringing it together. And also part of that is the

298
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: relationship part, like the players got to trust and what

299
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: we're we're saying and teaching and coaching them like that,

300
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: and so a lot of these guys have background of that,

301
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: and so I think when our players come in, they'll

302
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: be like, you know, look, this guy's done it and

303
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: this is our the system that how we go about

304
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 2: and teaching things. I think they're really gonna like that

305
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 2: with all the coaches in the room. And so I

306
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 2: personally am very excited about the group of men that

307
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 2: we're working with and getting them with our players and

308
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 2: starting this And the best time is on the grass

309
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 2: right with the players, and so you only can be

310
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 2: so excited. I'd go out there right now if I could.

311
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm really excited about that process and can't

312
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 2: wait for that to get going.

313
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 3: In terms of getting off the field on third down,

314
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 3: what are some core principles that you believe in?

315
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Russian coverage, right, I mean really you know, Russian coverage.

316
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: We have to be multiple. First thing we got to

317
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 2: do is affect the quarterback in that we can't allow

318
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 2: the ball to come out of his hand quickly because

319
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 2: then the coverage then the rush doesn't get there. So

320
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: if the coverage has holes holes in it or were

321
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 2: given easy throw, then it doesn't matter who we got

322
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 2: coming off the edge, you know. And we've got a

323
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 2: couple of good edge guys here, so we've got to

324
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 2: get the quarterback to hold it. The disguise as big.

325
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 2: We have multiple packages on third down, so we change

326
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: week to week or maybe we don't, you know, and

327
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: so keep them guessing. Really big early in the game

328
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 2: is we try to go out there and they're kind

329
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 2: of trying to identify what we're doing on third down

330
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 2: and then go from there not Hey, we're going to

331
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 2: be in this look and every single time, Hey, we

332
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: can make this throw. So we've got to be multiple

333
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 2: and keep changing. They're just too good on offense, you know.

334
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: The quarterbacks are too good offensive coordinators. There's so many

335
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 2: guys over there that can identify and so that's why

336
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 2: we've got to keep it multiple and keep changing up

337
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 2: the looks.

338
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 6: You mentioned edge. Just how much do you know about

339
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 6: Josh Allen and how important is he going to be

340
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 6: to the Stefens.

341
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe a lot of production, right, very important. And

342
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 2: so when you got a guy like that and and

343
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: you want them back and I think that's going to

344
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 2: work out. Would be really excited that works out. Uh,

Speaker 2: Talk to Josh and and uh, and he's been he's

00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 2: him into improve That's ultimate goal, right, just take one.

350
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 2: If we can just get that much better next year? Really,

351
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 2: what does that look like? That's pretty exciting, right, and

352
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 2: so that's kind of what we want to work towards.
