Getting ready 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 4: for the Steelers is they do a great job of 15 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,959 Speaker 4: punching at the ball, getting around the football, and it's 16 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 4: been a huge part of their success. And when you 17 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 4: look over the years, at least since I've been here, 18 00:00:58,320 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 4: not only against the Steelers, when we don't turn it all, 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 4: we usually put ourselves, you know, in a heck of 20 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 4: a position to win. And you know it's obviously heightened 21 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 4: after last weekend terms of turning the ball over, So 22 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 4: you're working on it diligently in your individual and you 23 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 4: know with the with the scout team punching at the ball, n. 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 5: Talking about. 25 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 6: A lot of two minute offense. 26 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 7: But that being said, I mean, when you look back 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 7: on what happened in this Bengals game, do you feel 28 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 7: like you ran the ball enough? 29 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 8: And and what do you think going forward it means 30 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 8: for your plan running the ball? 31 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 3: Well, we didn't score enough. 32 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 9: How how did kind of the snow down effect of 33 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 9: the turnovers Thursday night impact what you guys wanted to 34 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 9: do offensively from a play call and standpoint? 35 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 4: Well, it only it only changes it when the score 36 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 4: gets to a certain point, you know, That's really what happened. 37 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 4: The turnovers added to that, it stopped us from scoring 38 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 4: and gave them points. So that puts you. I mean, 39 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 4: we had one, you know, in the second quarter, we 40 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 4: had one drive, one legitimate drive, and we were using 41 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 4: Keaton in that series. 42 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 3: That was Keaton series. 43 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 4: Wasn't that we didn't want Derek to touch the ball, 44 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 4: That's that's silly. But then we got right into two 45 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 4: minute and then once you got in the second half, 46 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 4: and we turned it over a couple of times, and 47 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 4: the last three drives we had weren't two minutes. So 48 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 4: that's going to dictate a game just like it is 49 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 4: if you're winning and you're running the ball more. Do 50 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 4: I understand the UK control the game if you can't 51 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 4: run it? Of course, No, of course I do. I 52 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 4: mean that's a big part of what you got to do. 53 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 4: So again, we'll always be looking to run the ball 54 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 4: moving forward. 55 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 10: I think some people wondered how rachine that ends up 56 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 10: with more you know, Harry not terribly, but rats. 57 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 3: That Eric her interstands the game played out that way. 58 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 4: I mean, if we're using him in third down situations 59 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 4: in two minutes as a protection back in Justice's role, 60 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 4: it certainly got a chance to go that way. 61 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: Emory Jones his debut, good thought. 62 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 4: He really competed, you know, I mean the first time 63 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 4: for any player, you know, but it was fun to 64 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 4: see him out there and competing and moving around. He's 65 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 4: only going to continue to get better. 66 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 11: Lamar just created such a high standard for himself over 67 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 11: the years. What do you see from him these last 68 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 11: few games or even by his opponent edition, he's not 69 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 11: playing at the level. 70 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 3: Workhouse Well, I just gave him a lot of credit. 71 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 4: He's battling each week, trying to get healthy enough to 72 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 4: be able to play every every Sunday. 73 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what I see out of him. I 74 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: see a guy that's battling. 75 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 4: Uh, you know, little nagging injuries, things that are stopping 76 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 4: him from from being able to get out there every 77 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 4: day in practice. 78 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 3: You know. So again that's what I see. I see 79 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 3: a guy battling. 80 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 8: You think it's impacting him all of a sudden that, 81 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 8: Oh I don't. 82 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 12: I don't know that. 83 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 4: I mean, that's hard to judge. I mean, that's hard 84 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 4: to judge, you know, a practice walk through, those kind 85 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 4: of things. I mean, that's hard to judge. I mean, 86 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 4: I just I just know we got to coach better, 87 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 4: we got to play better collectively. 88 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 6: He was practice today. Do you expect him to be 89 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 6: able to play on Sunday? 90 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: I mean, he wasn't out there today. I would expect him. 91 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: We'll play on Sunday. 92 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 9: Changes to plays and stuff was such a big part 93 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 9: when you when you got here. 94 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 3: Do you feel like that has. 95 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 9: Been as good as you'd like it to be in 96 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 9: terms of get checking into the right plays at the line. 97 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 3: I think there's always room for improvement. Everything we do. 98 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: We're looking for improvement. Uh. 99 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 4: I think we've come a long way in terms of 100 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 4: checking at the lines, scrimmage protections, trying to get into 101 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 4: a premier play. But there's always room for improvement with 102 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 4: how we design it, how we practice, and then how 103 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 4: we execute on Sunday, which is which is the most 104 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 4: important things. 105 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 13: Second fumble, you know, Yet we asked him post game 106 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 13: why he didn't let go of that ball and said 107 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 13: there was like a tampatuo dropper. And then you know, 108 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 13: we look at the film, it looks like there was 109 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 13: a pretty clear froid lane. Is that worrisome for you 110 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 13: at all to kind of reconcile what he saw versus 111 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 13: what was actually out there on film? 112 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 4: Well, I can't speak to what he saw, you know. 113 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,679 Speaker 4: I mean that's the player's got to play the game. 114 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 4: I mean, they're the ones that you know again once 115 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: they get out there and Lamar first off, I'll just 116 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 4: say this, I've been around a few quarterbacks to see 117 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 4: the field like he does. I mean, he is elite 118 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 4: at seeing the field and finding guys open. 119 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 1: That was OC Todd Monkin answering questions about this Sunday's 120 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: divisional game against the Steelers. Now we'll hear from defensive 121 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: coordinator Zach Orr. 122 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 12: What's going on? How y'all doing?

I seen him. 127 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 14: A lot of the guys went up and talked to 128 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 14: him and welcomed. I mean, so, he's a remarkable player. 129 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 14: I'm definitely an NBA fan. He's one of the best 130 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 14: in the league. Wish him good health. But it was 131 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 14: neat to see him come out here. 132 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 5: Man. 133 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 12: He's big, like a monstar out there. 134 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 6: Man. 135 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 14: So uh, it was good to see one of one 136 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 14: of the best players in the NBA come check out practice. 137 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 8: Got enough minutes in the gold medal run. 138 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 12: Hey, I'm not comment on that. 139 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 7: You know, really interesting split between the two halves, and 140 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 7: obviously I'm sure Fatique played a part from the turnout 141 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 7: for margin was what it was. But what you take 142 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 7: away from that first half, the way your defense was 143 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 7: able to keep the Bengals out of the end zone, 144 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 7: and what kind of came apart in the second. 145 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:21,559 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think it was. It was. 146 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 14: It was a good effort by the guys, man, I 147 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 14: mean just showing, you know, no matter what situation you 148 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 14: put in, no matter where they put the ball at, 149 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 14: it's our job as a defense to stop them. In 150 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 14: first half, we were able to do that. It was 151 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 14: great communication, great effort, great execution from from the guys, 152 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 14: and they were able to stand up strong in the 153 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 14: red zone and do good job on third down. And 154 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 14: in the second half, I thought, I thought we played well. 155 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 12: Besides the first two drives of the of. 156 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 14: The second half, and it was really the two third 157 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 14: downs that got us, man and you got tip your 158 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 14: hat off to them. They made some plays, but we 159 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 14: could have been better on our end as coaches and 160 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 14: players those first two drives. But you know, we know 161 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 14: we're capable of We're still chasing to to really live 162 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 14: out and play to our full potential. I feel like 163 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 14: we haven't done that yet. I think the players will 164 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 14: tell you that as well. So we know when we 165 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 14: do what we're supposed to do play after play, that 166 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 14: we can really shut people down. 167 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 15: Have so many of your guys back and now maybe 168 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 15: adding our Darius into the mix, how does that what. 169 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 3: Does that allow you to do? And is it. 170 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 15: Possible to have too many pieces back there to make 171 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 15: it all fit? 172 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 12: Now to answer your second question. 173 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 14: First, No, it's it's not It's not impossible to make 174 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 14: it happen, man, if you we we love having a 175 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 14: lot of good players, and obviously a d is Is 176 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 14: is one of our best players. So it's been great 177 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 14: to see them back out there on the practice field. 178 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 14: I think the thing that's that's really good about the 179 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 14: secondary and how Double D and Pagano have have helped, 180 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 14: you know, train those guys is those guys are versatile, man, 181 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 14: so they can do a lot of different things for us, 182 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 14: not just playing a nickel safety, corner dime. So you know, 183 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 14: we're gonna get our best eleven on the field and 184 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 14: we're gonna fare out a way to do that. And 185 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 14: we got a lot of guys who go out there 186 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 14: and played good football for us, and you know, we'll 187 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 14: just add him back in the mix. 188 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 8: Would you see from your defense? 189 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 7: Once Nate left the game, and and you know, depending 190 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 7: on his status, how are you feeling about your ability 191 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 7: to I mean, he's played such a huge role for 192 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 7: you guys all year. What are you feel about your. 193 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 14: Yeah, they's been having a remarkable year. You know, obviously 194 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 14: it was unfortunate when he went down. I thought I 195 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 14: thought the guys. You know, obviously when you lose one 196 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 14: of your best players, it's an impact. But I thought 197 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 14: TJ came in and played well. He had a pass, 198 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 14: breakup and end zone right before the half. He had 199 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 14: the one p I where where he grabbed the guy 200 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 14: he proudly didn't need to. 201 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:42,479 Speaker 12: But I think the plays that they scored on didn't. 202 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 14: Really have an impact with with that with that position 203 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,599 Speaker 14: in particular. So you know, obviously we you know, we 204 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 14: love to have Nate out there, you know, hopefully hope 205 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 14: he's able to go Sunday Sunday force one of our 206 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 14: best players. H But we got full confidence. I mean, 207 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 14: Cheeto has been having the heck of a year. When 208 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 14: TJ has been called upon, he's been playing well. So 209 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 14: you know, we feel confident. It's got key on Martin 210 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 14: has played for us, So we feel good about our group. 211 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 16: Not knowing what Aaron Rodgers is going to be capable 212 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 16: of doing in terms of the handoff or does that 213 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 16: complicate preparation at all. 214 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 14: Nah, we expected. We expecting the best. You know, he's 215 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 14: he's still he's still very effective. He's been doing this 216 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 14: a long time. He's been doing a lot a long. 217 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 14: He's been doing it as long as some of these 218 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 14: guys been born on our team. So you know he'll 219 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 14: figure he'll figure out a way to get through whatever 220 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 14: he's going through, and we expect him to be at 221 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 14: his best. 222 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 11: The last five games or so, he's really struggled to 223 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 11: push the ball down. 224 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 17: Tip. 225 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 11: Is that something that you want to emphasis with your 226 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 11: guys not to be overconfident about that. Okay, just because 227 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 11: they've been an underneath passing game doesn't mean they're not 228 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 11: going to take a shot over the time. 229 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 12: Oh yeah, no, definitely. 230 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 14: I mean, even though they have been throwing the ball short, 231 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 14: they do have routes that are going deep, and they 232 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 14: have double moves that they've run with multiple guys, specifically Metcalf, 233 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 14: but nineteen can run, Calvin Austin ten, Scottie Miller can run, 234 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 14: and those they are calling those plays downfield plays and 235 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 14: guys have been open, so we know what they're looking 236 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 14: at on film and we know that they will try 237 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 14: to push the ball down the field on us, So 238 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 14: we have to be ready. We can't sit there and 239 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 14: just sit on routes. We have to play the integrity 240 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 14: the defense and play ball. 241 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 5: Some guys said that they watched the old Ravens Steelers clips. 242 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 5: Defensive players, how much as coma players self who's been 243 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 5: in this rivalry, how much do you kind of harken 244 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 5: back to those Black d Days and those matchups. 245 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean, I think the guys they know about it, man, 246 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 14: they know about it. It's something that if they're a 247 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 14: football fan, that they know about the raven Steelers rivalry. 248 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 14: It's crazy because obviously playing twice a year, were playing 249 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 14: three times last year. So I really honestly just focus 250 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 14: on the team that we got to get ready to 251 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 14: beat and the scheme that we got to get ready 252 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 14: to beat for the particular year. So us playing them 253 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 14: so much last year kind of led to going back, 254 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 14: obviously and showing the film of what we could have 255 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 14: got better at, what we did, what we did well, 256 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 14: and then just showing the young guys of what type 257 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 14: of game is gonna be. It's gonna be a physical game, 258 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 14: it's gonna be a battle. You're gonna have to scrap 259 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 14: and you have to bring your hard hat. So, you know, 260 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 14: I think the guys they do enjoy seeing that because 261 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 14: it kind of brings back that, you know, college robbery, 262 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 14: high school robbery that you really don't get a light 263 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,599 Speaker 14: in the NFL. 264 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 18: To the point a couple of guys have said different 265 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 18: a lot of you're not a raven until you meet 266 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 18: the Steelers. 267 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 8: Are you one of the guys making sure they're aware 268 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 8: of that, or those teammates or. 269 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 6: Who have this. 270 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 14: I haven't said that personally, but I know what I know. 271 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 14: That's the I know that's what's getting said around here. 272 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 14: I know the players they pretty much handle that, and 273 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 14: you know it's good that they're keeping that going. When 274 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 14: I was a player here, that's what I was told, 275 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 14: and so the tradition is still alive. 276 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 7: I know this doesn't effect you guys so much, but 277 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 7: ray Lewis is gonna be there on Sunday, you know, 278 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 7: and Jonathan Ogens are. 279 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 6: Gonna be there. 280 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 8: They're gonna be hyping up the crowd. 281 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 7: Are you hopeful that just the environment of this game 282 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 7: will kind of help put your players in a certain 283 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 7: mode to to. 284 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 8: Play their best for this rivalry? 285 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 12: Yeah, definitely. 286 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 14: I mean we want to, we want to put on 287 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 14: a great performance for for our fans and specifically guys 288 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 14: who've played here. Obviously, talk about two of the best 289 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 14: ever were in the sport and they were playing here, 290 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 14: Jonathan Ogden and ray Lewis. 291 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 12: We want to put on a good performance for them. 292 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 14: But I think our guys, man, I like the mentality 293 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 14: of our guys and what we've what we've been, how 294 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 14: we've been approaching this that it really matter who we play, 295 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 14: where we're playing at, what time were playing at. We 296 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 14: got to do what we have to do, and uh, 297 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 14: we have to we have to play great defense. So 298 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 14: we've been taking that approach and we're continued to chase that. So, yes, 299 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 14: that's in the back of our mind that we want 300 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 14: to we're playing home. We want to defend our home turf, 301 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 14: and you know, we're celebrating a lot of great people 302 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 14: have done a lot of great things here and we're 303 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 14: playing in front of our fans. Uh, by the end 304 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 14: of the day, the game gonna be played in between 305 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 14: the white lines. 306 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 15: Kind of challenges Darnelle and Washington pre sid He's become 307 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 15: more and more involved in their past game and he 308 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 15: gets in space. It's he's he's unique because there's nothing 309 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 15: that big that fast. 310 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 12: Now I haven't mean he's the side. 311 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 14: He's literally like the size of offensive lineman for real, 312 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 14: Like he's the size office line, but he can he 313 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 14: can run and build up his self esteem, build up 314 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 14: some steam going forward. Uh so, Uh definitely, man, when 315 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 14: he when he tackled, when they checked the ball down 316 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 14: to him, we have to get a leven hats to 317 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 14: the ball and corral him and it's gonna be it 318 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 14: has to be gang tackle and can't leave each other 319 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 14: one on one to tackle. And I think really where 320 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 14: he's grown at is his catching ability and a Rod 321 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 14: is really targeting him down in the red zone. I 322 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 14: mean in the red zone, he's probably the most targeted player. 323 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 14: So we definitely have that awareness where he's at and 324 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 14: make sure we take care of him. 325 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 18: He was talking about the conversation he had with the 326 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 18: team about the path forward, and I know we've talked 327 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 18: about his leadership quite a bit, but how nice is 328 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 18: did you have someone like him who's just always willing 329 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 18: to step up into that vocal ball. 330 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 14: It is beautiful, man, And I think I appreciate him 331 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 14: so much because it's not that's not an easy thing 332 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 14: to do.

Man, he brings it every single day when 347 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 14: he comes to work. He comes with the right mindset, 348 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 14: He attacks the day, and then he wears that that 349 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 14: badge of rallying the team together. Always have something to 350 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 14: say when coach calls it up. I mean, if if 351 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 14: nobody's gonna say something, everybody's gonna look at road to 352 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 14: the road to do it. And I just appreciate him 353 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 14: and we appreciate him so much for that because that's tough. 354 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 14: That's a tough thing to do to when everybody's watching 355 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 14: you and you have to be on your p's and 356 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 14: q's non stop, and you know he knows that he 357 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 14: accepts that, and you know you got to tip you 358 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 14: had off to a guy like that, and it's no 359 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 14: surprise of what he's done, you know, on the field 360 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 14: and off the field in his career. 361 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: You're listening to Ravens Press Past podcast.

Is 376 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 9: that kind of a was being told to him, or 377 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 9: do you want him to field some of the ones 378 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 9: that he let Balan, How does how does da playoff? 379 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 19: I think there was only there was only one that 380 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 19: he might have had that might have looked to us 381 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 19: on the sideline like there might have been some uncertainty. 382 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 19: But again I'll say it, man, whenever he's back there, uh, 383 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 19: he has the right to make whatever decision he feels 384 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 19: the most comfortable. 385 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 6: I don't. 386 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 19: I don't think he's uncertain at all to feel any ball. 387 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 19: This guy's got more confidence than uh, some of the 388 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 19: veteran guys I've seen back there return punts. So that 389 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 19: ball we had him a little bit deeper, ended up 390 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 19: being a shorter kick. He didn't run up to the ball, 391 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 19: hit the ground a little bit and it got a 392 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 19: chance to roll on the ground. But uh, man, he's confident. 393 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 19: He's a confident returner. We got all the confidence in 394 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 19: the world in him, and we're just waiting, you know. 395 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 19: Just and I'll say this, just because there's a punt 396 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 19: doesn't there doesn't always mean that ball needs to be 397 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 19: filled it. If it doesn't look good to the returner, 398 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 19: then our number one job is to make sure our 399 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 19: offense get that ball back after the play. And the 400 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 19: ones that we do feel you guys have seen him, 401 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 19: he's had success, so he's gonna continue to do that. 402 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 19: He's making great decision. He's a young player and he's 403 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 19: excited to really get the ball in his hands and 404 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 19: hopefully somebody pun us one so we can get going. 405 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 8: He's been more cautious since the fumbling Cleveland. 406 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 19: No, not at all, Not at all. I think he's 407 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 19: doing He's doing everything right. He's making the right decisions, 408 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 19: you know, And for us, we just tell him, hey, 409 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 19: keep doing what you're doing, because when the right punt happens, 410 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 19: we'll get the return. 411 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 7: Machine's taking a bigger role in general with Justice South 412 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 7: and I guess not really surprising to see the Bengals 413 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 7: kick away from Keaton so much on kickoffs. But what 414 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 7: is Rashine going to bring to the table as returner 415 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 7: when teams go out of their way to avoid Keaton 416 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 7: getting the ball? 417 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 19: I mean, he's he's a dynamic player. Before Keaton was 418 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 19: back there, right, Sheen was back there getting all the reps, 419 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 19: and we don't really for us, we don't really care 420 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 19: which one of those returners get the ball because we 421 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 19: know that both guys are very dynamic and they can 422 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 19: make plays in this return scheme. So if teams, teams 423 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 19: want to kick the ball away from Keaton, any opportunity 424 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,360 Speaker 19: that she gets, I mean, he's making the most of them. 425 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 19: And so you guys, we've seen it earlier in the 426 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 19: year when he's popped some big returns. We're just waiting 427 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 19: for those things to continue to happen and he'll be fine. 428 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 19: We love him as overall as a special teams player, 429 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 19: you know, he's because he can do so much more 430 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 19: than just being a returner. He's really good in coverage. 431 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 19: He plays all over the field, and I'm excited to 432 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 19: have him back out there. 433 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: That was Special teams coordinator Chris Wharton, answering questions before 434 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 1: the Ravens face the Steelers this Sunday.
