WEBVTT - 1-on-1: Doug Pederson October 11

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Coach, congratulations, you got off to a good start, something

0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:04.960
<v Speaker 1>that you haven't been able to do for a couple

0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>of weeks. How important was that part of the game.

0:00:08.200 --> 0:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I think it was everything to get a really good

0:00:10.240 --> 0:00:13.200
<v Speaker 1>start in this football game. Um, you know, something we

0:00:13.240 --> 0:00:15.160
<v Speaker 1>talk about each week, trying to trying to start fast,

0:00:15.240 --> 0:00:18.240
<v Speaker 1>especially offensively. I think I think you know, early on defense,

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:20.480
<v Speaker 1>early part of the season, defense was doing extremely well

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:22.439
<v Speaker 1>three and out and getting the offense the ball. But

0:00:22.520 --> 0:00:24.959
<v Speaker 1>tonight it was it was a credit to the defense

0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:27.240
<v Speaker 1>stopping them getting a quick turnover obviously in that in

0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>that first quarter, offense turning around and putting some points

0:00:30.120 --> 0:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>on the board, and and uh, it was good to

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:34.840
<v Speaker 1>see that that. Uh, you know, the things we're talking

0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:37.800
<v Speaker 1>about are sort of coming coming true. The offensive line

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:40.600
<v Speaker 1>seemed to have a real strong day, keeping the pressure

0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:44.040
<v Speaker 1>off of Carson Wins again, something that you needed in

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.479
<v Speaker 1>this offense. How big was that for the win? It

0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>was big? Um. You know, it's it's a good it's

0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:51.000
<v Speaker 1>a good front. You know, it's a big front, physical front,

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.080
<v Speaker 1>and of course with you know, with Vernon coming back,

0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:54.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was it was a challenge there as

0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:57.200
<v Speaker 1>a pass rusher and Um, I thought the guys really

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.639
<v Speaker 1>battled hung in there, did a nice job, and uh,

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:02.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, he took a couple hits early and then

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:04.000
<v Speaker 1>we you know, I had to had to kind of

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:05.920
<v Speaker 1>rethink things and get some more quick passing and get

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.200
<v Speaker 1>the ball out of his hand a little bit more

0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 1>some RPO stuff and kind of help settle everybody into

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 1>the game, and uh, then we were able to take

0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>off from there. Everybody's been talking about the run pass ratio.

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>I think you threw it thirty six times, ran it

0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 1>thirty one times. Um, you're gonna hear a lot about that.

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Talk about that a little bit. Listen, anytime you're you're

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:28.720
<v Speaker 1>first and ten to you know, second down and six,

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:30.920
<v Speaker 1>five or four, because you're running the football and you're

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:32.880
<v Speaker 1>staying ahead of the change, you're not shooting yourself in

0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 1>a foot with a negative rush or a penalty. You

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:36.520
<v Speaker 1>can do more of that, and you can, you can

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>you can run the ball a little bit more, and

0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:40.000
<v Speaker 1>then and then being able to you know, and then

0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>even by scheme, you know, we were in our twelve personnel,

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:44.720
<v Speaker 1>they stayed nickel, they stayed you know, five dbs and

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:46.600
<v Speaker 1>gave us the ability to run the ball a little

0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 1>bit more towards a you know, against the smaller, smaller,

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, front, and so that helps a little bit.

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 1>But anytime we can we can stay ahead of the

0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 1>change and be manageable on first down and do well there,

0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 1>whether it's play action pass, the run game quick passing,

0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>then then good things are gonna happens for it down

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>the road. You're much better in the red zone tonight.

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Was that schematically or where things just executed better? Talk

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>about your red zone? Yeah, you know, I think guys

0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 1>just executed better. As a sense of urgency. Obviously a

0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:17.600
<v Speaker 1>short week, we we kind of you know, you know,

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.720
<v Speaker 1>it's it's I'm kind of way back to some of

0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:21.680
<v Speaker 1>the basic stuff we did out coming out of training

0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:23.359
<v Speaker 1>camp and even some of the things we ran early

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 1>in the season that we didn't call in games. We

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>were able to put in a game plan like this,

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and um, so guys, guys have time on task, which

0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 1>is important to me that they um that they can

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 1>they can have repeat plays and and and and do

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>do well executing. So um, to credit to the players.

0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 1>You talk about the short week, but now tell me

0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 1>how you're going to handle this long week. It's almost

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>like a mini buy and what will you do with this?

0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, the players are gonna get some time, you know,

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:55.720
<v Speaker 1>to to to rest reflect. Um, you know, look look

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 1>at the first six weeks of the season. Coaches will

0:02:57.600 --> 0:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>be in the office on Friday, you know, we'll have

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>our injury players in getting treatment and all that, and

0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>then just kind of gear up. You know, we got

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 1>another couple of weeks here, We got two weeks coming up,

0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:07.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Panthers, and we go to London and
