1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Honestly, we saw the video of Kenny yelling in your direction. 2 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Is there something you want to dress with that? Or Yeah? 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: To me, it's not a big deal at all. We're 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: excited about having Keinn of Galaday here. We liked him 5 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: a lot in free agency and we brought him here 6 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: and he has done a really good job for us. 7 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 1: I love the guy. I love his competitive spirit. We 8 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: talk a lot about passion, emotion, enthusiasm and our players, 9 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: that's line one, and uh, demonstrating that we talk a 10 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: lot about fighting and competing. You know, he's a guy 11 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: who wants to be a part of this thing. Um 12 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: missed a lot of time during training camp. Has done 13 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: a good job when he's got some opportunities here in 14 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks. Had a couple on that 15 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: game the other day that you know, unfortunately we didn't 16 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: finish and probably had some frustration. And uh, you know 17 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: that stuff happens on sidelines all the time. You know, 18 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: we ask our players when they're between the stripes to 19 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,160 Speaker 1: go out there and compete in battle and scratch and claw, 20 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: and we can't say when they come to the sideline 21 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: all of a sudden require boys, again, we understand that 22 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: I've been on sidelines for a long long time, so 23 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: that happens. But he and I had a good visit 24 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: after the game. Was not an issue at all going forward. 25 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: There's always better ways to handle things as you go forward, 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: better ways to communicate. But it wasn't a big deal 27 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: to me into our team at all. Jason, can you 28 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: speak about the offensive line in the job they did 29 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: considering that you had a short work week, you had 30 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: some shuffling to do, and just how they performed. Yeah, 31 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: you know, those guys have done a really good job. 32 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: In the first couple of weeks. I've had a lot 33 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: of injuries up there, a lot of a lot of 34 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: moving parts, different guys in there, and real credits to 35 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: the guys who have come in. We have three guys 36 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: who have come in here in the last ten days 37 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 1: to two weeks. We've played a lot of snaps for us, 38 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: and a tribute to them. Professional players, prepared, you can 39 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: tell their veterans, guys who have been around football a 40 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: little bit. They've transitioned well. Credit to Rob Sale and 41 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: the guys working with the offensive line to get them 42 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: ready and uh, you know, again, moving parts. But you 43 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: know that's the situation we're in right now. We just 44 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: got to respond the right way. Done a good job 45 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: so far. You said you had a good visit with 46 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: him after did you feel that the need to just 47 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: make sure that you know nothing was kind of Yeah, 48 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: I just talked about isn't a big deal. You agree 49 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: with that, the assessment that you know you can get 50 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: him the balls in different ways? And how did you 51 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: take you know, what he did criticism and he was 52 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: or whatever, he was upset about it. What did you 53 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: make it? Yeah, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna keep 54 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: talking about this. Kind of got different opportunities in the 55 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: game and did a good job with some of them, 56 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: and a couple of them we didn't convert on, and uh, 57 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: you know that that's just what the situation was. So 58 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: we dressed and we moved on Jason. When you guys 59 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: drafted Candarius, there was a sense like a lot of 60 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: the routes in your playbook that we see a lot 61 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: of your receivers better in receivers run aren't necessarily the 62 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: routes that he had a lot of success on at Florida. 63 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,839 Speaker 1: So is our view adapted more Florida Candarius Tony routes 64 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: into your playbook. Does he have to do a better 65 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: job learning the traditional NFL routes because it seems like 66 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: he's getting a lot of snobs but not getting a 67 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: lot of touches. Yeah, Cadarius hasn't played a lot of 68 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: football for us yet. He missed the spring and missed 69 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: most of training camp. You practice about three days before 70 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: the season started. So he's he's a young player who's 71 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: learning receivers. It takes them a little time to transition 72 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,399 Speaker 1: into the NFL. We all know that, I would say 73 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: in general, Uh, college receivers when they're coming into the NFL, 74 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: there's a whole repertoire of routes that they haven't been 75 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: exposed to. So he's in that process. Not unique to 76 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: him or to us. Uh that that's just the nature 77 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: of things. So the biggest thing with him is practicing 78 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: day in and day out and development some consistency. Uh, 79 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: you know, not not no fault of his I mean 80 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: he's been hurt and been sick and has been dealing 81 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: with some different things. So he's done a good job 82 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: here lately. Uh, continue to work in practice, continue to uh, 83 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: you know, develop the trust that you know, coaches and 84 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 1: quarterbacks having him and just continue to grow. You said 85 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: that he played some more snaps in the game the 86 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: other day, did a good job with his work. He 87 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: just has to keep doing that. With his success, Daniels 88 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: have running, do you sit down and say let's do 89 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: it more. Yeah, I think you want that to be 90 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: a part of what you do. Uh, And he's done 91 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: a really good job of that here the last uh, 92 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: the last couple of years with us, and Uh, it's 93 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: certainly gonna be part of what we do going forward. 94 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna turn into a triple option team. 95 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: I don't think that's it. I think one of the 96 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: best things that he does he has an ability to 97 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: throw the ball from the pocket, throw the ball in 98 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: the move, and then run the ball different ways. So 99 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: that's certainly an asset to our team. Jason, with with 100 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: and the long run he broke off the other night, specifically, 101 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: do you look at that. I mean, that's really the 102 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: first time with you as his coach that he's had 103 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: a run like that. Right the first first week last year, 104 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: he really didn't have one. Um, how much do you 105 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: look at that and say he's getting there, We're getting there. Yeah, 106 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: a real credit to him. He had a serious name 107 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: Andrey last year and he's worked really really hard to 108 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: come back. For him to come back as quickly as 109 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: he has, it's really amazing and uh again a credit 110 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: to him, credit to our training staff and everybody who 111 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: has worked with him. And you know, with him, it's 112 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: just day by day, you know, getting better and better 113 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: and better as he goes. And we started to see 114 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: him the last couple of weeks of training camp come 115 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: back and really do everything we've asked him to do. 116 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: You know, you have to speak to him as to 117 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: how he's feeling, but you know, we're just excited to 118 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 1: have him back and he's done a great job for us. 119 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: The first couple of weeks generate a lot of yards 120 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: after catching, and how do you go about generating more 121 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: of that? Again, you're you're always trying to refine things. Um. 122 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: You know, certain offense, certain defenses give you certain things 123 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: with run after catch. Um, so I think that that 124 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: might vary week to week. I think the other piece 125 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: of that is just the precision you have with route running, accuracy, 126 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: catch on the run, all of that you're always trying 127 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: to get better at that. Good examples of that in 128 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: the game where we did it the right way. Certainly, 129 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: Samaria's where we can get better, and you know, it's 130 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: just part of the process you go through as you're 131 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: trying to improve and build your offense. In case, it 132 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: made you go back to Darius because we didn't talk 133 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: to you last week on the short week. The first 134 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: game against Denver, he had the two snaps, the ball 135 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: went right to him in the first half. Do you 136 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: feel like the defense knew that Darius's in it's going 137 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: right to him. And I guess to that end, does 138 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: he have to be more of a decoy sometimes so 139 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: that you can eventually hit the big one to get 140 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: as Yeah, you know, he'll be a piece of what 141 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: we're doing. You know, we have a lot of guys 142 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: on offense that we like, we want to get the 143 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: ball to, and you know, we're excited to draft Darius. 144 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: We're excited to have him on our team, and you 145 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: know we're excited to play him. But you know, we're 146 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: excited about playing Evan Ingram and say Kwan Barkley and 147 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay and Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton and some 148 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: of the other guys too. So you know, our guys 149 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: are gonna earn their opportunities, earn their opportunities to to 150 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: get a jersey to play, and to get opportunities within 151 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: the game. Jason, what in particular did you like about 152 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: how Daniel played the other night within the context of 153 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: like the areas where you were kind of looking for 154 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: him to take the next step? Yeah, you know, I 155 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: think Daniel has really improved, uh in playing winning football 156 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. And that's line one. That's where 157 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: it starts. Uh. You have to be able to take 158 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: care of the ball. You have it in your hand 159 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: every play, and I think if you go back to 160 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: probably the middle of the year last year, you know, 161 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: you see the strides he's made in that area, and 162 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: that's line one. That's where it has to start. But 163 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: then you have to have an ability to make plays too, 164 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: and I think he demonstrated that with his armor, with 165 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: his feet from the pocket, you know, throwing the ball quickly, 166 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: throwing the ball down the field. He made some plays, 167 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: he handled pressure, he threw it well against man and 168 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: z Own wasn't perfect by any means, but he's certainly 169 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: making a lot of strides and going about the right way. 170 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: He's in on the last drive when you guys are 171 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: trying to make them use their time outs there on 172 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: those runs when Daniel's running was working so well on 173 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: those reed options, why uh y call runs to say 174 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: quon more than than actually giving Daniel the option. You 175 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: certainly can do that in those situations where it's a 176 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: little bit sell out. Sometimes you want to use bigger 177 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: personnel to to protect the run a little bit more, 178 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: you know, rather than spreading them out. You certainly could there. 179 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: There's a number of different things you can do in 180 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: any of those situations. We felt like that was the 181 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: right thing for us to do at that time. And 182 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: there I'm going for, like making them use their time 183 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: outs versus like going for a touchdown and trying to 184 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: win the game. Yeah, we're trying to win the game, 185 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: you know, and the way we're trying to do that 186 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: is try to run the ball the way we did 187 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: and then you know, try to convert the third down. 188 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: And unfortunately weren't able to convert the third down and 189 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: give us a chance to keep that drive alive. Unless 190 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: you do that game, it's sort of a significant step 191 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: forward for the offense. I mean, you can put a 192 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: lot of points on the board. There was even more 193 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: out there, you know, the penalty that brought back to 194 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: touchdown and the drop past. I mean, yeah, you know, 195 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: I thought we made some strides. I thought we did 196 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: a good job having a balanced attack, attacking them different ways, 197 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: running and throwing it, and uh, you know that's what 198 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: that's what you're trying to do. It's a good defense. 199 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: It's a really good defensive front. Those guys are hard 200 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: to block. They've done a good job, you know, keeping 201 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: offenses from moving the ball and from scoring points. So, um, 202 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: you know, certainly a competitive game. We did some positive 203 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: things and certainly plenty of stuff we've gotta clean up. 204 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: As a quarterback. On the play that Slayton runs by 205 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: the defense, uh, is there a chance that Daniel can 206 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: just lollipop it when he's that open or does he 207 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: not even or do you not even get that chance 208 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: when you're a quarterback, you know, keep it short because 209 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: he's you know, twenty yards behind you. Yeah, Daniel was 210 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: trying to complete the ball. Unfortunately invest to buy a 211 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: little bit. It was a good route and and a 212 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: near misthrow, So unfortunately that one didn't work out for us. 213 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: Jason would talk about you know, people call it conservative 214 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: play calling there at the end, there was a time 215 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: not long ago when getting the bullet si Quan twice 216 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been conservative. You know, how close is he 217 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: did being that guy that you can rely on to 218 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: make plays. And yeah, is a really good player. I 219 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: think we all know that, and we have a tremendous 220 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: amount of confidence in him, and he's someone we certainly 221 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: want to get the ball to in any situation.
