1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: I need someone right there. You go, Bob Socie kick

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 1: us off, all right, Thanks days, appreciate it. Good morning, Steve,

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: Good morning. Are you doing. I'm doing well on yourself. Good,

4
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: thank you. Good. Question about the pressure on Zach Wilson

5
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: on Sunday the first half, I think that second series,

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,919
Speaker 1: the first scoring series for the Jets, he was able

7
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: to get out of the pocket. He made a throw

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: going to his left, I think, and then later had

9
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: the fifty four yard throw going to his right in

10
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 1: the second half. You guys got him going backwards. It

11
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: was that a result of corrections in the pressure was

12
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,959
Speaker 1: the result of his decisions. How would you explain how

13
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: did the difference and it comes when it comes to

14
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 1: with any quarterback trying to get him going backwards, which

15
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: a lot of young quarterbacks tend to do as opposed

16
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: to being able to make plays by moving latterly out

17
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: of the pocket. Yeah, I mean, I think it was

18
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: just kind of you know, combination of you know, the

19
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: rush and the coverage, the pressure inside, whether there's a

20
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: guy outside trying to contain him or or pull him up,

21
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: be quick to be in his face so that you

22
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: can't can't see downfield and then obviously it covers down

23
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: the field, whether there was you know, got tight end

24
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: coverage or or there was space for him to throw

25
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: the ball down the field. So, um, yeah, we knew,

26
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: we knew what it was going into the week and uh,

27
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: and we saw that early in the game. So it

28
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: was kind of combination of a lot of different things.

29
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: And and obviously it all goes back to how he

30
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 1: saw it play pan out, which you'd have to ask

31
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: him about that one sure. And looking ahead of this

32
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: game with Indianapolis, there's not a lot of tape I

33
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: guess of Ellinger throwing. He's had the one start around

34
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: the ball a little bit last year. What are your

35
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: impressions of him? And you know, how do you collect

36
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: the information that you need beyond one game to evaluate

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: him and go in and prepare a game. Plant. Yeah,

38
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: I mean this happens, you know typically at the you know,

39
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: the start of seasons when when new players start. But

40
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: I'd say last week in the Washington game, he did,

41
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: uh for a young quarterback, he did do a really

42
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: good job stepping up in the pocket. Um, you know,

43
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: scrammed with a couple of times through the line of scrimmage. Um,

44
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: you know, wasn't bailing out of the back of the

45
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: pocket very much. He was doing a good job stepping

46
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: up and feeling the rush and and going through his reads. So, um,

47
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: you know, he's he was impressive in his first starting Um,

48
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: you're not a huge sample size, but there's nothing we

49
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: could do about that. We just gotta go play good,

50
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: fundamentally sound football. All right, Thanks, Steve, Thank you. My

51
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: next question Chris Ryan, follow by Nickomeley. Chris your muted.

52
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: We're going to Nick O'Malley and come back to Chris.

53
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Nick, Hey, Steve, I want to ask about

54
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: yes the game yesterday and Sunday, and there are a

55
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: lot of instances where Russias would be getting up pressure

56
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: on Zach Wilson, but it wasn't too late in the

57
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: game that actually came out with the sack. How impactful

58
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: is it to get those instances where guys are flushing

59
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: the quarterback in the parkt and ultimately forcing him to

60
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: make Aaron throws as opposed to um just it is.

61
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: How much of a impact is have having a pass

62
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: rush more outside of just having just sacks? Yeah, I

63
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 1: mean I think that, you know, any pressure around the

64
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: quarterback is good good for the defense. And then you

65
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: know sacks are obviously they're good for the defense. Also,

66
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: we're always trying to trying to put pressure around the quarterback,

67
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: no matter you know who it is. You want to

68
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: put pressure around the quarterback and make him, make him

69
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: feel the rush and have to make a decision. Um,

70
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: you know, when he's under stress. So h yeah, even

71
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: though you may not come out of the games with

72
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: a with a ton of sacks, you're still getting getting

73
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: pressure on the quarterback. So that's that's always a good thing.

74
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: We always want to want to pressure the quarterback and

75
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: obviously sacks are just bowing us off of that. Thank you. Yeah, thanks,

76
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: We'll go back to Chris Ryan. Can you hear me

77
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: this time? Yeah, I be cool. Um. Wanted to touch

78
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: upon the Jets game as well, and you know the

79
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: overall impact of Jude On and how does that kind

80
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: of translate into success that you guys have in other

81
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: areas of the game. How big of a key is

82
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: his disruption? Yeah, it's you know, it's a huge part

83
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: of huge part of the game for us. I'd say,

84
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: any any front player, um, when they when they're they're

85
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: playing disruptive up front, you know that really that really

86
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,239
Speaker 1: affects the game. You know, the game starts up front

87
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 1: with the old line and d line. Um. I'm not

88
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 1: saying you don't have to have to cover receivers, but

89
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: if you if you get pressure on the quarterback quickly

90
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: and can get a sack and get in his face,

91
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 1: then sometimes it can mask or or cover up anything

92
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: that happens in the back end. So you know that

93
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: pressure upfront is always always a great thing. I don't

94
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: care what teams you're playing against, who's on offense, who's

95
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: on defense. If you can, you know, get to the

96
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 1: quarterback quickly and affect the quarterback and the quarterbacks to

97
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: think about that type of stuff, and that definitely can

98
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: can cover up problems in the back end enough if

99
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: you're like looking ahead, those problems in the back end,

100
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: but those disrupted players up front, they make a make

101
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: a big difference. Those guys can ruin a game for

102
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 1: the opponent. I want to ask about Jack Jones as

103
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: well or statistically he is ranked as the best cornerback

104
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 1: in football. What has led to that in your view?

105
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: And do you put too much into you know, those

106
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: types of rankings and analysis and how do you if

107
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,239
Speaker 1: not go about evaluating a players, you know, overall value

108
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: and effectiveness. Yeah, I'm not sure what those rankings mean

109
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: and how they're ranked and what they're compared to and

110
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: m is it a run or a pass ranking or

111
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: overall ranking? That stuff. I don't, Um, I'm I don't.

112
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 1: I don't look at that stuff. I look at you know,

113
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: what our calls are, what his assignments are, and how

114
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: he executed his assignment. So Jack's a player that we

115
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: drafted for a reason to be here. I'm happy he's

116
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: on our team. I'm happy to work with him. He

117
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 1: definitely loves football and loves to compete, and that's a

118
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: good place to start with me. So I'm glad he's here.

119
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: He's getting better each week. Um. You know, he's a

120
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 1: young kid. He's got a lot to learn, but he's

121
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 1: learned a lot already. So keep putting him out there.

122
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 1: Hopefully it keeps keeps making plays, learning from his mistakes.

123
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: It's never perfect with any player, but um, you know,

124
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: I enjoyed being around Jack every day and enjoy coaching him.

125
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: Thanks for back to Bob Socie follow brand, Nick Romlick,

126
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: all right, thanks Steve. One more for you Steve your dad.

127
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: Of course, was asked a lot as he was approaching

128
00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: career win three twenty five about passing George Hallis, and

129
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: of course spoke a little bit about it after the game.

130
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm just curious, you know, for you, you're you're a coach,

131
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: but you're also the sign out of the head coach.

132
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: You just became the second all time winning his head coach.

133
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: When you look at Don Shula, Bill Belichick, George Hallis,

134
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: ye know what it goes to your mind? Um, yeah,

135
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: you know we um, you know, we don't talk about

136
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: that that stuff a lot, but you know it's I'm

137
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: not that naive where I can't you know, see what

138
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: see what the stats are and and I appreciate that.

139
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: I mean that's a that's a lot of games, um,

140
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: a lot of games won, and UM, you know a

141
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of time spent. I've seen I've

142
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: seen how hard he works, um for a long time,

143
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: for my whole life. I saw how hard my grandpa worked, UM,

144
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: and how that's that's translated through my grandpa to my dad.

145
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: And I'm very proud of him. Um. I know he's

146
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: not satisfied with that, and I know it's just a number,

147
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: but it's a significant number. And UM, you know, I've

148
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: seen seen all the hard work he's put in. I've

149
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: seen a lot of people count him out. Um, and

150
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: I've seen him respond to a lot of adversity. Um,

151
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,239
Speaker 1: I'm very proud, proud to be as I'm I'm proud

152
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: to see see the work that he's put in payoff.

153
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: Even if it's just one number. I know that's not

154
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: what he was, you know, striving to do, like I

155
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: just want three hundred and twenty five wins or whatever.

156
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden he hit that number,

157
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: he's gonna stop. I know he would have been working

158
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: just as hard if that was his twenty fifth win. So, UM,

159
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: I'm really proud of him, and I'm glad he say

160
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: it will be recognized for it. Thanks. A lot more

161
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: work to be done, thank you. Final questions Nicomley and

162
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: Zach cor Hey. Seve was with the trade NFL trade

163
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 1: deadline today. Obviously you guys haven't many any, but there

164
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 1: have been a lot of acquisitions over the years where

165
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: the Patriots have made like key additions have helped, particularly

166
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: at the line level. John Bostick, Johnathan can see this.

167
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: Keen airs of guys in like the front seven that

168
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 1: have bolstered things. How can adding a guy mid season

169
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: really help with depth? And um really like infuse that

170
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: undn't help it improve down the stretch. Yeah, I mean,

171
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: I just think that, um, when those things happen that um,

172
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: typically you're you're getting a player to try and help

173
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 1: your team at a point in time, where that's not

174
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: you know, not every team's getting a player to help

175
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: her team at this moment in time. So some teams do,

176
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: some teams still, UM, well, we'll see what happens. But

177
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: I think that the reason why those trades are made

178
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: is to help teams out, whether it's you know, at

179
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 1: this moment in time to to get a player or

180
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: for the future if you're on the other side of

181
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 1: that getting epics or whatever. But that's I'm not I'm

182
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: not involved in that stuff. I just kind of take

183
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: what I'm giving. Thank you. Last question Zach car Morning Steve,

184
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 1: along the lines of Bob's question about about milestones, you

185
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: also had Matthew Slater now becoming the the second second

186
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: all time in games played for the franchise. Just curious

187
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,599
Speaker 1: in in your mind, what is he meant to to

188
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: this franchise and to you personally over all the years

189
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: he's been here. Yeah, you know, I've known, I've known

190
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 1: slave for a long long time. Um, you know, before

191
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: I was coaching, as uh you know, a friend or

192
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: a player, when I was not involved in the organization,

193
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: and and now as I've been coaching for so long. Um,

194
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: you know, he's just such a such a professional. Um,

195
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: how he approaches the game, how serious he takes the game,

196
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: all the all the work behind the scenes that he

197
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: puts in. Um. You know, I remember, you know, starting

198
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: to learn some of the special team stuff back when

199
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: he was a rookie, when Scottio was coaching special teams

200
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 1: and I was long snapping and stuff like that, being

201
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: in those rookie meetings and stuff like that. And um,

202
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: how far we've all come, and you know how much

203
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: work he's put in. Again, that two hundred plus game numbers,

204
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: it's just a number. But you don't just you don't

205
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: just get that number. Um you know, it's I was

206
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: joking with him before the game or last week or something.

207
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: You know, my daughter was born in March and he's

208
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: played in more games than days that she's been alive,

209
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: which is you know, it's wild to say when you

210
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: when you think about it, think about it like that,

211
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: But me and Slade have a ton of a ton

212
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: of good conversations, um, almost daily, just about you know, life.

213
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: He's a far father around the father. He's been around

214
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: here for a long time. I've been around here for

215
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: a long time, so just kind of you know, he's

216
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: a good, good friend to have. He's a great, great

217
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 1: mentor for me, great leader for the people on the team,

218
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: and I'm very privileged, honored and blessed to be around

219
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: him a lot. And let's also not forget the milestone

220
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,599
Speaker 1: him I got dev um, you know, coming up with

221
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,839
Speaker 1: two picks and and now where he stands in the league.

222
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 1: So I don't forget about those Rutgers guys. Thank you, Steve,

223
