1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,240 Speaker 1: Good morning, coach, not the way you drew it up. 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:05,359 Speaker 1: They as they say yesterday. 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,079 Speaker 2: No, no, no. But I mean obviously we're we're gonna have 4 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 2: to get some things fixed and we'll have to, you know, 5 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 2: start to look at just being able to take advantage 6 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 2: of the opportunities when they're there. And we have some keys, 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: and I don't know that we all really executed them 8 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: on all three levels. There were some good and there's 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 2: some bad, and there's all these the stuff that gets 10 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 2: you top to bottom. So coaching, yeah, I mean, that's 11 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 2: always what it's going to be, and we just have 12 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 2: to do a better job of understanding, you know, about 13 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 2: winning the second half in some of these games that 14 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: are close and just getting off to a better start. 15 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 2: And you know, defensively we settled down. We had three 16 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: three and outs and we only came away with three points. 17 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 2: So that is not very complimentary football, and it's disappointing 18 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: if you're able to do that. You know, we have 19 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 2: to be able to put some more points on the board. 20 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: And then obviously the X plays that we gave them 21 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: defense and some of the penalty and things that cost 22 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: us on specialis, but we hit a good kickoff return. 23 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 2: They gave us a good field position that got us 24 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: going on and things that we can build on throughout 25 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: the throughout the game. 26 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 3: Mike, you say, coaching better take us into the mindset 27 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 3: a little bit. It's third and twenty and you seem 28 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 3: like you're a little bit aggressive there, which. 29 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: Leads to a long play. 30 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: I know Davis bites on the slant and go, well, yeah, 31 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 3: I play coverage in that situation. 32 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: Just still trying to be aggressive and trying to you know, 33 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 2: force a mistake and probably have to play off and 34 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 2: again just catch and tackle and rally. But we feel 35 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 2: like being aggressive right there is what allowed us to 36 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 2: get into third and twenty, and you know, just situationally, 37 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: being able to you know, get get the guys off, 38 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: everybody looking at the football and then we know what 39 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 2: it's going to be, and it's going to be have 40 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 2: to be a catch, tackle and but with just trying 41 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: to make a play and trying to be aggressive in 42 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: that situation. 43 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 4: When it comes to Drake May, last season he had 44 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 4: an issue with trying to force plays to make something happen. 45 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 4: Did you see any issues with that yesterday? Did that 46 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 4: lead to any of the times where he threw the 47 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,399 Speaker 4: ball away or or maybe put them in a tough 48 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 4: position the interception. 49 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 2: Of course, yeah, I thought he was, you know, bumped 50 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: a little bit. You know, we we've got to get 51 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: get into these routes and get spacing. And then obviously 52 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: if the quarterback gets hit, bad things happen, right, turnovers happen, 53 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 2: or they get hurt eventually, kind of what I've always 54 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 2: said with quarterback gets hit. So I thought he had 55 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 2: some really good decisions. I thought he was accurate at times. Uh, 56 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: And then I thought there was some missus that's how 57 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 2: it goes. I thought we protected for the most part 58 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: fairly well. It was never perfect, never will be. But 59 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 2: I thought there were some clean pockets and you know, 60 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: against a few really good pass rushers. 61 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: Just pull this a little closer. You're cutting in and 62 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: out here and there, and everybody wants to hear every word. 63 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: But he threw the ball forty six times. 64 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: Is that ideal? No? No, no, no, no, no, that's you know. 65 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 2: I mean they think that the way that the game 66 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 2: went and where we had to be in down two possessions, 67 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 2: we have to be much more balanced. We you know, 68 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 2: we have to run the football better, more consistently. So 69 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: that some of these play pass opportunities show up. I 70 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 2: thought you saw some good examples of that. Whether that 71 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 2: was some movement plays by Drake down down in the 72 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: red zone that you know, just flip the hoop and 73 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: he's able to gain ten yards, and there's some of 74 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: those examples. But just you know, being able to run 75 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: it more consistently well will help us with some of 76 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: those plays. 77 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: What do you think of Will Campbell his first regular season? 78 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought there was there was I thought it 79 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: was steady. I thought there were some good plays. You know, 80 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: I don't think there were any you know, a couple 81 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: of movement times in a run game. Him and Jared 82 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: might have got disjointed, but I thought that they, you know, 83 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: played okay on the left side. I think it was 84 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: a good place to start for two rookies, you know, 85 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: playing their first game on the left side of the line. 86 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: I didn't think it was. 87 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: Penalty costly when you're you have that FOD. 88 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean again, take that out, you know, I'm 89 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: talking about the course of the game. Yeah, the mistake 90 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: and you know, critical situational football, yes, but I'm just 91 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 2: looking at the overall body of work that it didn't 92 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: look like they were overwhelmed with the twenty one and 93 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 2: a twenty two year old on the left side of 94 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: the line. 95 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: Penalty is happy with I mean, well, no, not anybody. 96 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 2: No. I mean we had a couple on special teams, 97 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 2: we had, you know, defensively there there were a few. Yeah, 98 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 2: it was less than ideal. I think with with penalties, 99 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: we had a couple. You know, the ones on the 100 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: kickoff return and the punt return are real costly. They 101 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 2: chew up so much yardage and take you back. Can't 102 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 2: start drives on the twelve yard line and you expect 103 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 2: to go ninety yards every single time. 104 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 5: Drake's performance yesterday was not up to the standard I 105 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 5: think that fans and media had expected from him. It 106 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 5: feels from my perspective that the organization has gone out 107 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 5: of its way to make Drake comfortable as opposed to 108 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 5: try and get the most out of him. 109 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 2: Whether you think. 110 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 5: Four series in the preseason, he's you trade the guy 111 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 5: that was backing him up last year. Do you think 112 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 5: Drake is being pushed enough to be great? And do 113 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 5: you think that that there's losing Does the culture of 114 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 5: this organization and the losing they've been a part of 115 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 5: the last several years. Does that impact a young guy 116 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 5: like Drake May trying to take over? 117 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: I really that was a long question. Just can you 118 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: shorten it down for me, because I promise you I'm 119 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: trying to get the best out of every player. But 120 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: that was just a lot there for me to unpack. 121 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 5: Are you concerned at all about how important it is 122 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 5: for Drake May to win? Do you think it's the 123 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 5: most important thing for him? 124 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: God? I hope so. I mean we again, I'm gonna 125 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: I hope winning is as important for everybody, and I 126 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 2: want the from everybody. I want a competitive spirit. And 127 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 2: if I don't see that, you know, then we'll have 128 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 2: to make decisions and changes at every level. I don't 129 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 2: see that. I think that he wants to be at 130 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: times perfect, and I need to get past that. We 131 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: all have to get past that. You need to be 132 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: precise and not perfect. And if you make a mistake, 133 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 2: it's the reaction that you have to the mistake that 134 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: everybody sees and then they're like, oh wow, that was 135 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 2: a that was a mistake. We have to we have 136 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 2: to clean our reactions up, you know, our responses have 137 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: to be much better. And then getting into the throw 138 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: because I'll flow because you see really good timing and 139 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 2: precision and accuracy, and then we see some other misses. 140 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't ever concern myself with with that. 141 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: I just want to better performance, more consistent, and continue 142 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 2: to grow as a as a leader, and make sure 143 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: that there is a command to what we're doing that 144 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 2: this is the situation, this is to play. Those are 145 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 2: the things that I'm focused on. 146 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 3: Mike helped me understand because I'm sitting here fourth and 147 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 3: five inside five minutes, you guys decide to punt the 148 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 3: football down by ten. When I'm thinking in that situation, 149 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 3: you guys are clearly. 150 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: What Obviously we were going for it on fourth and five, 151 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 2: and then it goes to fourth and ten, and then 152 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 2: now I think those numbers changed drastic. 153 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 3: Sorry, it was fourth and five. 154 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: It never went the fourth, fourth and tent. 155 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 3: I excuse me, but it was fourth and five and 156 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: you did punt, so it never went to fourth and tent. 157 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: We fall started and it went to fourth and ten. 158 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: Oh did it? Okay? I'm sorry. So we were on 159 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: the ball going for it and that was the that 160 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: was okay, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, And again just 161 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: trying to Again, you don't want to be in those situations. 162 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: You know, there's a percentage of the fourth and ten, 163 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 2: there's a percentage that you kick it, and you don't 164 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 2: want to kick it twenty one yards and you don't 165 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 2: want to give up an X play and all that 166 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 2: other stuff. So again, every whatever decision, I've learned that 167 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 2: whatever decision that we go with, the steps along the way, 168 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 2: I have to be perfect when you're down to scores 169 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 2: and that's you just and again if we go for it, 170 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: we still have to go and you know, kick a 171 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: field goal or score a touchdown and then get the 172 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: ball back. And I was trying to just pin him back, 173 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: be aggressive, uh, get the ball back and give us 174 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: a chance to to do something, and that that clearly 175 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: didn't happen. There were some good plays. I thought we'd 176 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: moved with some urgency to get down there. It was 177 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: cool to see, you know, Andy make a kick and 178 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 2: come back after he missed. So it's a lot of 179 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 2: good things and we just have to you know, we've 180 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 2: got to embrace moving on and learning from this and 181 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 2: and doing it quickly. This is this is a This 182 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: league doesn't doesn't rest for you. It doesn't wait around. 183 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 4: You called it a game of missed opportunities? Is that 184 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 4: what you expect with a young with with young guys 185 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 4: in general, and how do you make sure that they're 186 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 4: able to move on from from a loss like that? 187 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 2: Oh, I don't That's not what I expect. That's I 188 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: don't want to be clear there. I don't think anybody 189 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 2: expects that. Yeah, we'll see. I think just how we 190 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 2: take the coaching and how we come in and the 191 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 2: leadership that that we have I talked about that will 192 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 2: we'll start to see where that shakes out. And you know, 193 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: but I'm confident that these guys will come back and 194 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 2: again that the young guys that we have to get. 195 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 2: It was young guys, it was veterans, it was it's 196 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 2: going to be every every one of us and not 197 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 2: just the rookies or the second year players. Uh, it's 198 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 2: everybody at all levels working together. And I think you 199 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 2: can show them the examples of when it did look 200 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: good and then the examples of you know, hey, we're 201 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 2: just not we're a little disjointed here, we're not communicating, 202 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 2: or we gave up too many X plays and these 203 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 2: were the keys that we had talked about coming into 204 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: the game. 205 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 5: On Saturday night, Bill Belichick addressed the story that scouts 206 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 5: from the Patriots were not allowed onto the campus to 207 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 5: scout the Tar Heels. He said that he's not welcome here, 208 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 5: so why would he allow Patriots employees onto his campus? 209 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 5: Is Bill Belichick welcome here? And were you surprised that 210 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 5: he didn't allow the scouts onto campus the scout as players? 211 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 2: Again, nothing surprises me. I would imagine that that that Bill, 212 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 2: I mean, he came back for uh, the best of 213 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 2: my knowledge, Tom's ceremony, so that I would I guess 214 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: he's welcome back based on the fact that he was there. 215 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 2: So I'll just go by that. Since his departure as 216 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: the head coach here, he's been back and I'll leave 217 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 2: it at that. 218 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: Has he maybe been out shopping or something at Patriot 219 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: Place and and not allowed. 220 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: To not allowed to walk? Does I don't know? Does 221 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: his key card still work? Well? No, the when when 222 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 2: you get fired? The key card does not work. I 223 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 2: tried it, I went by, I went back to Tennessee. 224 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 2: It doesn't work. They call the fingerprint doesn't work, the 225 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 2: key card doesn't work. What happens? 226 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: Chance you get Christian Gunzales. 227 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: And again we'll see he's working extremely hard. I know that, 228 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: you know, we'll get him in here on on a 229 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 2: Monday today and evaluate him and see where he goes. 230 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 2: And you know, Christian is working hard and he wants 231 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 2: to be back. I do know that. 232 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: Oh I got to always ask these questions every week. Temperament, 233 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: stepp digs not not that involved. Yesterday he okay afterwards, 234 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: feel good about where he's at. 235 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw some energy from him. I saw some passion. 236 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 2: And you know, everybody just wants to win. And I 237 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: don't think that it's too caught up on production. I 238 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: think that we want to win and that make the 239 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: plays that we're supposed to make. Him. When the ball 240 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 2: comes to you and find you, uh, you know, we 241 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 2: have to be able to do something with it. That's 242 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 2: how this thing goes. Mike. 243 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 3: I would say one area where you guys really looked 244 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 3: good was your ability to get out to the quarterback 245 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: talk a little bit about you know what that means, 246 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 3: especially for your front seven, that when you can create 247 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 3: pressure and make a quarterback uncomfortable uncomfortable, what that means 248 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 3: for the team. 249 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: Well, I mean I think that the more times that 250 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: you're able to pressure the quarterback, just we talked about 251 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 2: with Drake or weren't getting hit the more that you 252 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: can a quarterback. You know, obviously that can lead to 253 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: turnovers and hopefully you know that that's the the quarterbacks 254 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 2: accounted for sixty five percent of all the fumbles last 255 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 2: year in the National Football League, So that's the number 256 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 2: one target to try to get the ball away from him, 257 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 2: to be able to hit in the pocket or as 258 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 2: he's scrambling or whatever it may be. So you know, 259 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 2: that was a good good to see. We need to 260 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: if we pressure him, we need to be able to 261 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 2: tip some passes. We need some pass rush PBUs and 262 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: ball production is really what we're looking for. And I'm 263 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: glad that we were able to hit him at the 264 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: times that we hit him and sack them, but we 265 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: got to take the next step to get. 266 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 4: The ball out real game action. For Travon Henderson, how 267 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 4: do you feel like you fared well? 268 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 2: I think we got to give him some space. I 269 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 2: think that there were a few times where you know, 270 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: maybe he should have gone maybe one time on a screen, 271 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 2: he probably should have kept it outside instead of you rush, 272 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 2: you know, cutting it back inside. But you know, I 273 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 2: thought Travion tried to play fast, and you know we 274 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 2: got to open up some holes on the on the 275 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 2: kickoff return too. We got to use that as a 276 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: web in and try to be better there. We're much 277 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: better in preseason than we were yesterday. We had the 278 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: good the one good one, but not not consistent enough. 279 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 2: And you know, Travis gonna keep working and it'll be 280 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: a big part of what we do. 281 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: Max Crosby kind of hit Drake may barely hit him 282 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: out of bounds, then made the hands to the eyes 283 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: crying emotion was or motion? 284 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 2: Was that directed to you? I don't know. I are 285 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: you ready to throw if you have to? No? I 286 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 2: didn't even notice the Max did that. I okay, okay, 287 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: we don't care about that. No, I don't know, don't 288 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 2: care about any You talk. 289 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: You talk about the run game and wanting to get 290 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 3: more out of it. What do you think kind of 291 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 3: took away from that? Because the score was relatively close, 292 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 3: so you feel like it was maybe you just got 293 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 3: to stay after it more. 294 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 2: Do you feel like you better that we are able 295 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 2: to move it and not just gain a yard or two? 296 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I think that you have to have a flow. 297 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 2: I mean, you got to see some some space. You know, 298 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 2: you got to give the runners some space, and you 299 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,479 Speaker 2: have to be able to move the line of scrimmage. 300 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: And you know they play a defense and there's a 301 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 2: guy in every gap, and you don't move them or 302 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 2: you don't create some space, there's you know gonna be 303 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 2: There's not gonna be much. There's gonna be a wall. 304 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 2: So you know, we had a couple of glimpses and 305 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: they were moving and when they move we got to 306 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 2: take advantage of that as well and try to come 307 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: off and climb to the second level. So we'll need 308 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 2: a more consistent and just fine tuned run plan that 309 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 2: that we believe in and worrying about some things like 310 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 2: you know, hey, they're in this front. We can't run this. Well, 311 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: maybe we can, and we'll just we'll get back to 312 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 2: to to the basics and trying to move people off 313 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 2: the ball and give our back some some space, uh 314 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 2: to run and then we'll have to go get the 315 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 2: support and receivers be a part of that as well. 316 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 2: On to Miami. They didn't look so great yesterday. 317 00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: What issues does that team create? 318 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: Well, it's always been a fast team. It's always been 319 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: a very fast paced offense with their skilled players and 320 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 2: what they do that the quarterback winning rhythm has been 321 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: very accurate. We'll have to disrupt the timing of him. 322 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: We'll have to go on the road. This would be 323 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: our first regular season game on the road going down 324 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 2: there in a division opponent, So I would expect a 325 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 2: very challenging and difficult game and one that we'll have 326 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 2: to find a way to win in the fourth quarter. 327 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: Do you agree with Wiggy must win? Now? I don't know. 328 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 2: I mean again, I like to think that they're all 329 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 2: must win. If you look at it like that, you 330 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 2: know that we only get so many opportunities, and we 331 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 2: only get so many opportunities to to win and continue 332 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 2: to improve. It is must improve week, and I think 333 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 2: that when you do that, then that will lead to victories. 334 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: Well, you seem calm and collected after a loss, so 335 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: you're not a throw things around the office. 336 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: It would be really you know, by my demeanor and 337 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: and what I do, I think is gonna be a 338 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: reflection of everybody else in here around the building, and 339 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure everybody feels bad. It's not gonna do 340 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 2: any good for me. It starts throwing everything around. I'm 341 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 2: sure everybody else. They don't need me to feel worse. 342 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 2: I think that everybody wants to win. They put a 343 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 2: lot into it. We want to win for the players, 344 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 2: want to win for for fans that have supported us, 345 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 2: and and that's that's our job, and that's what we're 346 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: going to continue to try to do. Good crowd yesterday 347 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: and again, I want to be able to thank them 348 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 2: when they're a loud on third down and we get 349 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 2: a stop and we win the football game and we 350 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: make it hard on the other team. But you know, 351 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: we weren't able to win. But yes, it was great 352 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 2: to see, even in the rain, and everybody out there 353 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 2: very appreciative of that. I appreciate you mentioned. 354 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 3: In that well you got, like you said, you got 355 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 3: some young guys and the must win, the importance of 356 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 3: obviously the conference games and now a divisional game, you know, 357 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 3: getting some of these young on the road, getting something 358 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 3: these young guys to understand that, you know, some of 359 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 3: these guys come from college and they don't know the 360 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 3: magnitude what what some of your I guess you know, 361 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 3: tips are what you'd be telling some of those young 362 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 3: guys about the importance of the divisional games. 363 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,959 Speaker 2: Well, I think that that's where you know that you 364 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: can steal. When you steal some divisional games on the road, 365 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 2: you really have a chance, you know, to make up 366 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 2: some ground because that's the fastest way into the playoffs 367 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 2: is by winning your division. And maybe they don't quite 368 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: understand that, like you said, and so you know, just 369 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 2: showing them the how you how you the percentage you know, 370 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I'll look up the percentages of the road 371 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 2: road winds in the side of the division and how 372 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 2: that leads to success later on down down the year. 373 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: But really, I think we're going to focus on making 374 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 2: the corrections here today and then I think when we 375 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 2: come in on Wednesday, really have a concrete plan on 376 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 2: letting these guys understand the vision and the road games mean, 377 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 2: and the road environment and all these different things that 378 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 2: we have to talk about. 379 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 5: Do you think the second half was in any way 380 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 5: a reflection of a lighter camp. A big storyline postgame 381 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 5: was the team had not as many players playing preseason, 382 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 5: not as much hitting as last year, and then the 383 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 5: second half of fallouf. 384 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: Does that have any relation now? I don't think so. 385 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 2: I meant when he started driving through interception and they scored. 386 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 2: So I don't really think it did. I thought we've 387 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 2: had the last two weeks. I mean, we've practiced over 388 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 2: thirty times. We had three joint practices in an intersquad scrimmage. 389 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 2: That's the history of the football team. We just didn't 390 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: do enough in the second half, and I don't think 391 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 2: that that did. It's certainly anybody's opinion. I don't, but 392 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 2: I'm telling you how it went. We got a couple 393 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 2: first downs, and I thought it was great that we 394 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 2: got a couple first downs. We started on a twelve 395 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 2: yard line, we had a penalty on kickoff return. I 396 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 2: don't know if that had anything to do with it, 397 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: but we started driving a football through a pick and 398 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 2: they scored. So that's really to me how the second 399 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 2: half started. And then it was kind of we traded 400 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: back and forth and then we got you know, we 401 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 2: got into the action late and kicked the field goal, 402 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 2: and you know, but that was the disappointing part, just 403 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: as the emphasis that we made on the second half 404 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 2: for the last you know, two weeks, since we were 405 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 2: you know, starting on the raiders of just how many 406 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 2: of these games were going to be one score games 407 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: and how many come down to the second half and 408 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 2: the team that was going to be able to you know, 409 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 2: come out and do it. That's kind of how the 410 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 2: game went. We just weren't the team that was able 411 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 2: to win the second half. Well, yeah, go ahead, Booty 412 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 2: had a good game. 413 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 4: I just wanted to ask because we were all holding 414 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 4: our breath when he went out. Briefly, what did he 415 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 4: bang up in the very beginning of the game and 416 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 4: were you impressed with the way in which he came back. 417 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: Oh? 418 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 2: I mean, he's had a great camp and he's done 419 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 2: a great job. So I'm not going to get into 420 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 2: injuries or anything that they were looking at, but he 421 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 2: was evaluated, uh, and then he was able to go 422 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 2: back into the game. So he did a nice job. 423 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 2: He's put a lot into it. It's good to see 424 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 2: him get, you know, get the reward for for working hard. 425 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: All right, we'll let you get get to work this morning. 426 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: Okay, guys, I really appreciate it. Thank you for taking 427 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 2: the time
