I just wanted to ask you about Chad quickly. 5 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 2: I know he hasn't gotten any field goal attempts last 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 2: two weeks, a couple extra points, but how have you 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: kind of seen him respond either on the practice fields 8 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: or behind the scenes the last few weeks after that 9 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 2: after that giants miss. 10 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, Chad's done a good job. 11 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 3: You know, he showed back up to work after that 12 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 3: and really, you know, attack it to practice, you know, 13 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 3: taking every rep. You know, it's like a game rep. 14 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 3: You know, I think you know, watching him in pre 15 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 3: game and watching hit the ball. You know, even though you, 16 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 3: like said, hadn't had a bunch of field goal attemps 17 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 3: or anything like that, you know, he's striking the ball well. 18 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 3: You know, he's getting down through the ball, keeping his 19 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 3: eyes down through the contact. 20 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: You know, he's doing a really good job. You know, 21 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: he's responded. 22 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 3: Like you said, well, I think that's one thing about 23 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 3: Chad that that you'd like to see is you know, 24 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 3: he moves on to the next kick. You know, he 25 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 3: obviously never want to miss a kick, but you gotta 26 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 3: have some mental toughness as a kicker that when you 27 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 3: do miss, you can respond and not let that kick 28 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 3: waiver and bother you go and moving forward, And you 29 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 3: know he's done a good job obviously in practice and 30 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 3: then the games, making the three pats the other night. 31 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: And one other one quickly.

Looks like 33 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: he plays a lot of special teams. You guys saw 34 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: him earlier this year. Just what you kind of see 35 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: from him that you wanted to bring him into the 36 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: mix here. 37 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 3: You know, you know when you watch Christian when he 38 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 3: was in Philly. Obviously we got to prepare for him everything. 39 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 3: You know, he's a good, solid physical player. You know, 40 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 3: plays a good technique. You know, thanks you look for 41 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: the fundamentals, you know, in the right position, understanding where 42 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: he has to be, whether it's the blocking or in coverage. 43 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: Us in his hands, you know. 44 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 3: So it's gonna be good getting to work with him 45 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: this week, you know, moving forward, obviously getting him into 46 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 3: the fold. 47 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: You know, he can't throw everything. 48 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 3: You know, everything you've done in the game plan and 49 00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: a guy that's just getting here but gott to get 50 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 3: him up speed, meet with him as much as we 51 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 3: possibly can, you know, and obviously put him out there 52 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: and hopefully does a good job for us, you know, 53 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: whenever you know it. 54 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: Gets on the field. Awesome, Thank Caim, Thanks Broan, appreciate you. 55 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: Next question, Bob says, Thanks steph ay Cam Good morning. 56 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: Hey Bob morning. 57 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 4: I want to ask you about the punk block in Pittsburgh. 58 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 4: And it seemed, you know, watching that play versus some 59 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 4: of the other pump blocks, he tended to see where 60 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 4: maybe a guy comes off the edge like Jonathan last 61 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,399 Speaker 4: year against Indianapolis, or maybe against the Colts two years ago, 62 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 4: where somebody gets kind of turned loose inside. What on 63 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 4: that particular play factored into the block by Killer Brew 64 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 4: against Tye, you know, coming from where he did seemingly 65 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 4: picked up. 66 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's a lot of just you know, you know, 67 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 3: he does a good job dipping his shoulder and you know, 68 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 3: and getting around the edge. 69 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: And then reaching for the block point. 70 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 3: You know, obviously for us and the protection standpoint, fundamentally, 71 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 3: we've got to make sure we're acting you know, the 72 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,839 Speaker 3: inside striking, sustaining the blocks and then pushing the guy 73 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 3: off the edges a lot of times. You see a 74 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: lot of punts in general, no different than a quarterback 75 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: steps up in the pocket off an edge rush. 76 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: It's the same thing. 77 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 3: Off the edge, you want to make sure that guy 78 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 3: goes around the punter and you can't really reach back 79 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 3: until they get to the block point. So anytime you 80 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 3: get those edge rushers, guys that are really good, you know, 81 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 3: whether it's a you know, an a an athletic guy, 82 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 3: skill guy, or maybe like a big bulldoze guy, defensive 83 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 3: end guy, you know that's rushing around the edge, kind 84 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 3: of like trying to reach for a quarterback, strip sacks 85 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: and those type of things. As much as the same 86 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 3: philosophy fundamentally inside out, get the guy washing past, running 87 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: past the block point or you know, the spot, you know, 88 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 3: and then in that way you're stepping up or in 89 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 3: this case, you're stepping up with a punter swinging his leg, 90 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 3: you know, back up to ten yards. So we just 91 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 3: got to do a good job of striking and running 92 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 3: guy around. 93 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 4: I guess I'm related and not sure if these were 94 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 4: factors on that play, but in terms of the snap 95 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 4: to kick time for a punter and as well the 96 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 4: depth that you guys, what your punt are at. And 97 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 4: I know sometimes you have to adjust if you're punning 98 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 4: out of your end zone for example. 99 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know, for us, you know, ideally you 100 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: want to be anything under two two o you know, 101 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 3: two oh five somewhere in there as a full snap operation, 102 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 3: kicks and something that can change. Like you said, are 103 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 3: you one step in a situation that's critical where you're 104 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 3: just trying to make sure you get the ball off 105 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: right there kind of like the end of the game 106 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 3: situation right there. So there's some situational stuff where the 107 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 3: operation time you want to speed it up because maybe 108 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 3: the punt itself doesn't have to be such a flipping 109 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 3: field position. 110 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: You may be in good field position. So there's some. 111 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 3: Factors that will lower that whole operation time as far 112 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 3: as the snap to kick and and everything there. So 113 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 3: in a general thing, normal situation throughout the game, somewhere 114 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 3: around the two to ozh two oh five range, you know, that's. 115 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: You know, depending on the snapper. 116 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 3: You know, obviously some snappers are faster than others, and 117 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: then the punters, you know, they want to remove themselves 118 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 3: usually in that one three to one three f war range. 119 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 4: Okay and Ken, this is just a question about kind 120 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 4: of a retrospective looking back a previous punter and Ryan 121 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 4: Allen's performance in Super Bowl fifty three for something else 122 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 4: and working on you know, he was certainly a guy 123 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 4: that could have been MVP before Julian got better war 124 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 4: When you look at how that game played out, can 125 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 4: you go back, can you rememory you know, watching that game, 126 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 4: watching Chad and describe, you know, what made him effective 127 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 4: at in that offense to compliment that your offense or 128 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 4: defense at the time, but particularly you know all that 129 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 4: that game. 130 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, Royan had had a great game that game. 131 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: If you look at it, it's. 132 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: The situational punting that he handled that It's every time 133 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 3: we got an opportunity to pin them deep and make 134 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 3: them have to drive the whole link to the field. 135 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 3: You know, Ryan was able to execute it, you know, 136 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 3: going down their ways, putting the ball Matt and down it, 137 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: you know, inside the five yard line. So you know, situationally, 138 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 3: he operated very well. He was able to flip the field. 139 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 3: I mean he was I would like to say he 140 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 3: was locked in you know for Ryan like that that 141 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 3: he couldn't you know, mis hit a ball, so he 142 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,919 Speaker 3: was moving well, he was seeing the ball off his foot, 143 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 3: and the ball placement and of the football allowed. 144 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: The gunners to get down there. You know. 145 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 3: Obviously Slate had the one tackle over there on Jojo, 146 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 3: you know, trying to get vertical and then we're down 147 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 3: the ball inside the ten. 148 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: So but it all works together. 149 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 3: So the placement of Ryn putting the football outside of 150 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 3: the numbers and giving him enough hangtime to get to 151 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: the football. 152 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 1: He you know, like I said, you like you hit 153 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: on the head. 154 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 3: He could have been very well at MVP of the game, 155 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 3: you know, being able to maximize the field position. So 156 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 3: anytime you situationally get in those situations and you execute that, 157 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 3: when you're making the offense go ninety yards and you're 158 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 3: putting the defense on long fields, it's a very good 159 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 3: complimentary football, which you know that speaks to the specialists 160 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 3: for sure. 161 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. Thanks, I appreciate it. Appreciate about m
