1
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: The preparation for the Seattle Seahawks is ramping up here

2
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: at the Cross Country Mortgage Campus, so that means we

3
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: get to hear more players and coaches at the podium.

4
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: I'm Jake Melnzik, and welcome to another episode of From

5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 1: the Podium.

6
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:19,920
Speaker 2: We're gonna hear from the players.

7
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: First, they spoke in the locker room, and wide receiver

8
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper was the first one to go. We talked

9
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: about how he's been building his chemistry with quarterback PJ.

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: Walker and how he's continuing to get better even in

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: year nine in the NFL.

12
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 3: To win the last couple of weeks without really having

13
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: to shawn but more than you know, not even quarters.

14
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it just speaks to the resiliency of

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 4: the team. You know, obviously for the past couple of

16
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 4: weeks we didn't know you know, who will go out

17
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 4: there and I'll start.

18
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 5: For us at quarterbacks.

19
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 4: But you know, at the end of the day, it

20
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 4: shows our ability to adapt to whatever situation is presented

21
00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 4: before us.

22
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, where do you think that comes from?

23
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 6: The ability to do that?

24
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 4: I would just say the way we practice, That's the

25
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 4: first thing I will resort to put the way we

26
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 4: practice the circumstances. We we put ourselves in and practice. Uh,

27
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 4: we just go out there and we we we we

28
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 4: dominate the practice.

29
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 5: That's that's where I would say it come from.

30
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 7: How do you think PJ has handled this uncertainty and

31
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,279
Speaker 7: you know, get thrown into the fire and uh and

32
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 7: and and then obviously you know this week in practice

33
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 7: now that he knows going into.

34
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 4: The week, but he's goo, I would say he he's

35
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 4: handled it well. I mean he comes in, he just

36
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 4: do he just does what's acts of him.

37
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 8: Uh.

38
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 4: He goes out there and he he tries to execute

39
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 4: to the best of his ability.

40
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 5: Uh, he's been doing a good job.

41
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 9: I feel like.

42
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 5: Said he give give us an idea.

43
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 6: How you feel like you're developing or.

44
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 9: Repo J how much? Yeah?

45
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, just the communication. I mean, you know, repetition is

46
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 4: the mother of all learning. So the more reps we get,

47
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 4: the better uh will be. But what I've noticed since

48
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 4: you know, uh, we make a mistake on you know,

49
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 4: a connection, we talk about it and we we grow

50
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 4: from there.

51
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 10: How valuable is there is a single day of practice

52
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 10: preparing for a team for the quarterback. Because last week

53
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 10: he didn't practice Thursday or Friday, and that kind of

54
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 10: showed I thought like games.

55
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 4: Uh uh I that would be a better question for

56
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 4: a quarterback to answer, cause I I've never uh, I've

57
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 4: never prepared as a quarterback to go play in a game,

58
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 4: So it would be a better uh question.

59
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 5: For a quarterback.

60
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 11: There's something about pgat in the fourth quarter because the

61
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 11: usually hast two games and he's looking pretty good at

62
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 11: those game really dropped ay Man.

63
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 5: Some people say it's a clutch gene, so maybe he

64
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 5: has it.

65
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 8: So what's yup?

66
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 5: He said? Some people say it's a clutch gene, maybe

67
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 5: he has it.

68
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 12: Obarrie jimmers See came out pretty strong and said that

69
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 12: the NFL informed him, uh who Jimmer said.

70
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 5: The Colts gam okay?

71
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 12: Uh he He tweeted that the NFL told him uh

72
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 12: that the Rupts got it wrong on those two calls

73
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 12: at the end of the game, so specifically your call.

74
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 12: I'm just wonder, did y'all.

75
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 4: Did you feel like that that was like all of

76
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 4: the like, uh, I mean, the calls are subjective at

77
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 4: the end of the day.

78
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 5: Uh did he grab me? I mean, I I believe

79
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 5: it was very obvious that he did, so they called it.

80
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 8: Who are going to Seattle.

81
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 7: What do you see with the sea off second area.

82
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, you got some good players in the secondary players

83
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 4: that you know, we have our attention on for sure.

84
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 4: But as long as we go out there and and

85
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 4: do our jobs, uh, we'll be fine. But they they

86
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 4: they're playing, uh, really good football.

87
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 8: What's that environment like?

88
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 7: Uh playing in that stadium?

89
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've played there a couple of times.

90
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 4: Uh.

91
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,119
Speaker 5: It gets really really.

92
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 4: Loud, so it it definitely gonna be a challenge for us.

93
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 5: But it's something again, you know.

94
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 4: We're preparing ourselves for this week, Uh, gonna go out there.

95
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 4: It all comes down to execution at the end of

96
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 4: the day, and and that's what we're trying to do.

97
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 7: You know.

98
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 4: We we've you know, we have the crowd noise out there

99
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 4: for practice for a reason, and were just preparing.

100
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 3: What do you think about the Rocky corner with us

101
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 3: see as good as advertising?

102
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think he's a good player. He's making

103
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 4: a lot of plays, uh making his name known. So

104
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 4: uh there there's gonna be a u A a nice

105
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 4: fun competition going out there.

106
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 3: You guys have seen the next man of mentality and

107
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 3: bodyhood quarterbacks room, but you've also had to see it in.

108
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 9: That running backs room.

109
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 6: Have you seen those.

110
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 13: Guys kind of step up when NCTOK goes out and

111
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 13: then throw Ford goes out for the game.

112
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: Have you seen them maintain that and have a.

113
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: Strong running so yeah, I mean it's just a testament

114
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 4: to the way that those guys prepare. You know, the

115
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 4: first thing that is important is knowing what to do

116
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 4: when you go out there. I think a lot of

117
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 4: guys they get kind of complacent thinking that they might not,

118
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 4: you know, have the opportunity to play. Then something like

119
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 4: that happens in the game to where it's unexpected and

120
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 4: you have to be ready. So uh, I think they've

121
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 4: stepped up in a in a big way by just

122
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 4: knowing what to do.

123
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 5: How difficult is.

124
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 3: It for you to kind of get in the flow

125
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 3: when you don't get targets early like you get.

126
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 4: In any Yeah, it it that can be difficult to

127
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 4: get into the flow when you don't get targets early.

128
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 4: I mean, uh, generally you wanna, you know, you wanna

129
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 4: get a catch as early as possible so that you

130
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 4: can kind of get into the groove, get hit a

131
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 4: little bit so that you can feel like you're playing. Uh,

132
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 4: but you know, the cookie doesn't always crumble that way.

133
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 4: You know, sometimes you have to wait even until the

134
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 4: second half to get your first catch. And I I've

135
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 4: been there before, had games where I had one catch

136
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 4: in the first half and then you know, ended the

137
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 4: game with two hundred yards.

138
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 5: So it just it's just perspective.

139
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 10: What was the Sean like in the Huddleton Amaran those

140
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 10: first few players where you and he doesn't seem to

141
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 10: have have it going on.

142
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 4: The side, I mean he was he was like himself.

143
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 4: I don't know how to answer that question. I mean,

144
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 4: he was just Sean Watson, Uh, just calling the plays

145
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 4: that have been related to him, just trying to.

146
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 5: Get us going, like uh, any other quarterback would do. Yeah,

147
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 5: so it was the same to Shawn.

148
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 14: Even with all the struggles at quarterback.

149
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 8: What's it to say that this team is still forward too?

150
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 5: Like I said before, the resiliency of the team.

151
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously quarterback is the most uh important position,

152
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 4: but uh, you know, the defense, I've been making great plays. Uh,

153
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 4: I believe the receivers have been making plays when our

154
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 4: when our names have been called. Uh, we just been

155
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 4: playing great complimentary football. Special team's been playing great so uh,

156
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 4: you know, when when you can play together in all

157
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 4: three phases and the good things.

158
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 12: That happen, and you're dealings in conversations with DeShawn, Uh,

159
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 12: how badly does he wanna be out there? And how

160
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 12: hard is he trying to be out there with you here?

161
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 8: Yeah?

162
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 5: Of course, I mean a that's that's any player.

163
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 4: You know, something unfortunate happens, like an injury, y, you

164
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 4: wanna be out there. That's what hurts us the most,

165
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 4: not being able to be uh you know, uh available

166
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 4: for the team, especially when it's one of those like

167
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 4: I don't know, I would call it like a grade

168
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 4: area of injury to where you don't necessarily have surgery

169
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 4: on it. So like you know, you can still play,

170
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 4: but it's gonna be extremely difficult to to to be you.

171
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 4: So that's that's that's painful. I've I've been there, and

172
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 4: is it.

173
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 12: Extremely frustrating as a player. I I would guess to

174
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 12: to have people wonder if you should be out there

175
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 12: before you actually can be yourself.

176
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean s just speaking from my own experience, Yeah,

177
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 4: one hundred percent. It's it's one of the most you know,

178
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 4: painful things we go through because like I said before,

179
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 4: it's like, uh, it's like theoretically you can play. Yeah,

180
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 4: I mean you you you can run around, you can move,

181
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 4: but y, you just not one hundred percent yourself. Your

182
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 4: You're a shell of yourself at that point. So I'll

183
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 4: played through a lot of injuries. Uh I I know

184
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 4: exactly what he's going through. So yeah, it's it's hard, Mari.

185
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 14: You've established yourself as reliable receivers in the league. How

186
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 14: much do you study other receivers and still try to

187
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 14: add to your repertoire somebody.

188
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 9: Like DK Metca for.

189
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 4: Uh, I don't necessarily say that I study other guys,

190
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 4: but you know, inevitably, I have to watch film on

191
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 4: the defenses that I'm going up against.

192
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 5: So I see other receivers playing, and you know, if I.

193
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 4: See them, if I see them do something that you

194
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 4: know it's different, I'll, you know, I'll tally it up,

195
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 4: try to save it for the archives.

196
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 6: Yeah.

197
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: Cornerback Denzel Ward was next this week. He talked about

198
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: what went wrong on some of the defensive breakdowns last

199
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: week and how this team can continue to get better

200
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: at their tackling.

201
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 5: What is tough about that.

202
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 15: Offense, especially a passing yeah, they got a lot of

203
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 15: dynamic players on that side of the ball, not just

204
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 15: a passing game. And though the running game you see

205
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 15: that got a very dominant run game. Got a good

206
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 15: player back there and Walker and uh try to get

207
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 15: the run game going. And then also I mean got

208
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 15: plays players like Metcalf and uh Locket and uh uh

209
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 15: uh Jackson on the outside. So, like I said, dynamic

210
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 15: players that they could get the ball to and make place.

211
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 10: I don't think you've played in mm mm not yet.

212
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 10: Curiosity as it matters, are mostly.

213
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 6: Concerned about the team.

214
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 15: Uh yeah, mostly just focused on the team, not really

215
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 15: concerned about the uh atmosphere or whatever. It's still just

216
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 15: a game of football, and uh the game I enjoyed playing,

217
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 15: So yeah, I'm not too concerned about the what's gonna

218
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 15: go on out there are.

219
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 2: Yeah.

220
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm definitely uh interested in seeing like all the

221
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 15: hype and everyone's always talking about it gets real loud

222
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 15: and stuff like that. So uh looking forward to playing

223
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 15: there and uh just seeing the atmosphere and being able

224
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 15: to play in their stadium.

225
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 6: What is uh what makes.

226
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 5: The team?

227
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, he's been a facilitator out there, able to

228
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 15: just control the game. Just uh get the ball to

229
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 15: his playmakers, like I said earlier, not making too many

230
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 15: bad throws out there, but just controlling the game out there.

231
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 6: The situation.

232
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 8: M Uh, yeah, we do, we do.

233
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 15: Gotta be better like that. In the Coast game, that

234
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 15: was on me. I had relaxed for a minute and

235
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 15: had winning and and squeezed down on Pittman on the inside.

236
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 15: I should have stayed on the outside and cover and

237
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 15: cover that guy so that that play was on me.

238
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 5: I gotta I gotta be better on that.

239
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 15: But yeah, just just uh finishing the play and executing

240
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 15: our job and assignment. And I don't think it should

241
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 15: be a too big of an issue in the future as.

242
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 6: Lead and what happen. What do you think you can

243
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 6: attribute it to kind of.

244
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's it's football.

245
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 15: I mean that those guys on the other side get

246
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 15: paid to their great players as well, so uh, they

247
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 15: did a good job putting points on the board, making

248
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 15: plays out there. And I mean, at the end of

249
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 15: the day, the most important thing is getting to win.

250
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 8: So we're able to do.

251
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 5: That and execute that.

252
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 15: So just had to focus on what we gotta fix

253
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 15: and get better at and fix that for the next game.

254
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 16: What you see that?

255
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 5: I'm your kick?

256
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 10: How did you see the whole thing right there?

257
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 15: Yeah, so at first I seen the play action, thought

258
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 15: so I was about to come down there first, but

259
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 15: I kind of seen the playout.

260
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 5: Pittman was kind of leaking out.

261
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 15: I was able to flip my hips and get back out,

262
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 15: and I don't think Minshew has seen me coming back out,

263
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 15: so I was able to step in front of it

264
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 15: and take the ball away.

265
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 6: I was cool with.

266
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 10: I mean, you guys to give us for takeaways, that's

267
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 10: kind of unusual.

268
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 9: So what was that like?

269
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 15: Yeah, that's the emphasis, trying to get takeaways and help

270
00:11:58,800 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 15: our team win.

271
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 14: Uh.

272
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 15: It may not have been the prettiest win, but the

273
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 15: most important thing is getting at w uh in that column.

274
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 15: So just find ways to win the weekend and week

275
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 15: out and uh that's the goal.

276
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 9: How close are you with.

277
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 17: Your face?

278
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 15: Yeah, I haven't met him personally yet, but looking forward

279
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 15: to the matchup and going against those guys.

280
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 7: So with the uncertainty with you know, the Shaun being heard,

281
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 7: I guess pressure is the wrong word, but you know,

282
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 7: on your side of the ball, you guys think, hey,

283
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 7: you know, we gotta try and help carry this thing

284
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 7: until he's able to get that.

285
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 15: I think we got a lot of capable guys here, PJ,

286
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 15: dtr all those guys are capable of making plays. And

287
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 15: as you see, I mean PJ, he led us to

288
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 15: a win victory last last couple of weeks and uh so,

289
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 15: I mean, yeah, we still got to step up and

290
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 15: do our job and assignment on the defensive side as well.

291
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 15: But it's just going out there and playing. So once

292
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 15: once uh uh d y is ready, then then cool

293
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 15: welcoming back. But we're gonna be out there just playing

294
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 15: the game that we've been playing and pocus on how

295
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 15: could get a win?

296
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 7: And so what did you see in when you guys

297
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 7: you can and what I guess how do you guys FX?

298
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 15: Yeah, just like today, just going out in practice and

299
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 15: doing drills where we could uh focus, aren't tackling folks,

300
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 15: aren't where our eyes are supposed to be and uh

301
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 15: our keys and everything. But uh, like I said, there's

302
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 15: there's a lot of talented guys in the NFL. They're

303
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 15: gonna make plays as well, But we just gotta be

304
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 15: out here playing fast and physical and I think, uh

305
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 15: that'll take care of yourself.

306
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 16: Is it more like a.

307
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 5: Mental aspect in the middle.

308
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 18: I guess, uh like, I don't know, how do you.

309
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 15: Keep in tackling? Yeah, yeah, it's d it's definitely mental.

310
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 15: You gotta wanna tackle and come up and make a play.

311
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 15: But uh yeah, it's also technique as well, just uh

312
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 15: c coming under controlled and not out of control and

313
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 15: being able to wrap up and get guys on the ground.

314
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 9: Until you knew that.

315
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 15: Miles, Yeah, yeah, I think it's gonna work. I mean,

316
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 15: you guys know Miles as a freak, so I mean, uh,

317
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 15: just to see I have the game plan before the

318
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 15: game and then go in and see 'em actually do

319
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 15: it and and get the block.

320
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 5: It was a freaky play. It was crazy.

321
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 15: I think I was close. I'm glad he got it.

322
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 15: Though I tried to scoop in the score, I wasn't.

323
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 15: It wasn't able to get away. I wish I could

324
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 15: have got away for the team, but well, I think

325
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 15: we'd get another one and be able to do it again.

326
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 5: You feel you're getting closer field goal against the Ago, Yeah,

327
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 5: I think we're getting close. I'm getting close.

328
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 15: So just gonna try to keep coming hard off the

329
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 15: edge and put as much pressure on the kicker as

330
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 15: I can try to get a hand on.

331
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 5: The ball and affect them.

332
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 7: Obviously, you guys saw something on the filming the end

333
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 7: of that game where you felt like that might work.

334
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 7: Particularly just what's to say about, you know, the attention

335
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 7: to detail that has brought to that particular unit this year.

336
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 7: Wherever it feels like that, why you guys might not

337
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 7: be explosive in like the return games, you're finding ways

338
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 7: to get points on the board, to find a ways

339
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 7: to make place in in other ways.

340
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think that's the biggest thing. Just Bubba's attention

341
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 15: to detail. I mean, he's the one that's putting in

342
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 15: all the work in the film room and and uh

343
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 15: studying those guys and seeing where we could attack uh

344
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 15: these teams that and he's putting the right guys in

345
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 15: the right positions to go out there and make a play.

346
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 15: And uh, that just showed that putting Miles in that

347
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 15: position to be able to jump over a guy and

348
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 15: that's the right guy for the position and get the

349
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 15: block for the team and help us win.

350
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 5: So it's been fun.

351
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 8: That's there's no.

352
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 14: Evidence that any of this happened when you were at

353
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 14: Ohio State, but.

354
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 9: When you hear what's going on with right now?

355
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 14: Are private you take and playing in Columbus, put your

356
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 14: reaction to what you heard about what Michigan's been doing,

357
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 14: and put your message.

358
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 9: To fans up this way.

359
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 5: Honestly, I haven't heard about I'm not familiar with.

360
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 14: Accused of Stevens side By sending staffers too games to

361
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 14: record sidelines and basically stepping over the line.

362
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 9: They they've been accused of cheating.

363
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 15: Yeah, that's the first time me hearing about that. But yeah,

364
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 15: I'm not I'm not too familiar with that. But yeah, cheat,

365
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 15: cheating is never good.

366
00:15:58,440 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 19: That's it.

367
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 10: What was you know when you guys saw that blocked

368
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 10: by Miles when you reviewing the film, you.

369
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 15: Guys, Yeah, just a rough life, man. It's just a

370
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 15: freaky play, just a crazy player. I don't think not

371
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 15: not everybody could make a play like that. But uh,

372
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 15: that's just big credit to Bubba getting the right guys

373
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 15: on position, and Miles just the athlete that he's He

374
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 15: is able to jump over a whole lineman at his

375
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 15: size and speed and get his hands up and block

376
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 15: the kick and find a way to affect the game.

377
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 6: Take that out of the bag of tricks.

378
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 2: There.

379
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:36,320

Speaker 1: Now, Quarterback Deshaun Watson went next. He gave us a

386
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: lot of information about his shoulder injury and how much

387
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,800

Speaker 1: this team.

389
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 9: How frustrated are you.

00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 19: By the current situation, well situation just being injured in

391
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 19: and out. I mean, I all I can really do

Speaker 19: as strong as possible as soon as I possibly can.

395
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 19: And that's all I can really do right now.

396
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 8: Did you rush it last week?

397
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:17,919
Speaker 5: Uh? I don't know.

398
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 19: I mean the time limit for you know, usually Rotator cubs, sorry,

399
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 19: four to six weeks. You know I felt during the

400
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 19: week that you know, I have the opportunity to play,

401
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 19: you know, right at that kind of four three weeks

402
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 19: four week mark. Uh, and you know I just didn't

403
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 19: have the strength and things like that to be able

404
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 19: to go out there and play a full complete game.

405
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 19: So uh, you know, the medical staff Kevin, you know,

406
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 19: decided to you know, hold me out, so I don't,

407
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 19: you know, do anything worse to it.

408
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 6: So what do you hopeing playing?

409
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 4: Uh?

410
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 19: I mean as soon as possible, as soon as possible,

411
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 19: So you know, we just gotta go, you know, through

412
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 19: the process again and uh rehab and get back with

413
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 19: the docs and uh try to strengthened as much as

414
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 19: possible and get the pain away and uh try to

415
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 19: get back on the field soon.

416
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 6: So do you think do.

417
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 10: You think playing last week set you back on in

418
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 10: your uh recovery.

419
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 19: Uh, I'm not sure. I'm not sure if it did

420
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 19: or if it didn't. You know, at the same time,

421
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 19: I wasn't a hundred percent last week, So you know,

422
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 19: I just try to, like I said before, you know,

423
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 19: go through the game, go through the process of see

424
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 19: if I can make the throws, make the place you know,

425
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 19: I thought I was ready, wasn't ready. And you know

426
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 19: at the time, you know, I took a hit, took

427
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 19: a blow right to the same same area once it

428
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 19: I hit the turf on that last play. I guess

429
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 19: that I was laying down. Yeah, rm, you know, same

430
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 19: same situation boom hit that. So it was a little shock,

431
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 19: and so you know it possibly could be so much

432
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 19: shit on.

433
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 20: You look good on Friday like you were thrown with

434
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 20: philosophy when we were watching out. There are there days

435
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 20: where it feels good and days where it doesn't.

436
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 19: I mean I wouldn't sit here and say I was

437
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 19: I was feeling perfect on Friday. Uh, you know, I

438
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 19: was pushing through it so uh cause I'm a competitor,

439
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 19: but you know, I I felt like I had enough.

440
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 19: But at the same time, though, you gotta realize the

441
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 19: reality and the reality and practice is very controlled, especially Friday.

442
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 19: You call it fa fast Fridays for a reason. And uh,

443
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 19: you know the factor that you can't put in until

444
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 19: you actually, you know, go out there's on Sundays and

445
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 19: bullets is flying. You gotta be able to react and

446
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 19: not think about each throw and not know, you know,

447
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 19: where you're gonna throw the ball and how you gonna

448
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 19: throw the ball, and and and all, you know, the velocity,

449
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 19: the speed, the tempo, all that stuff. So you know,

450
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 19: you know, we got a little taste of it three

451
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 19: or four drive series and yeah, it just you know,

452
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 19: at the end of the day, you know, it just

453
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 19: it just wasn't right when it.

454
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 6: Came out to look at you.

455
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 7: I guess you cleared a concussion test or whatever.

456
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 2: Uh.

457
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 7: At what point though, during that evaluation was did the

458
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 7: shoulder become the concern and not uh a potential headgery.

459
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 19: Uh, the concern was the shoulder from from the jump.

460
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 9: I didn't know.

461
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 19: About the concussion until I went in the second time. So, uh,

462
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 19: the spot her from up top and the lady came

463
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 19: down and that's when they when I came out. Then

464
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 19: I went back in. That's when we did the confession thing.

465
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 19: And I was surprised too. I didn't know that it

466
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 19: was concussion cause the whole time when I was down

467
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 19: and the dots came over, we were speaking on the shoulder.

468
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 19: So uh, yeah, I I cleared that then, and I

469
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 19: try to go back in, and then you know, Kevin

470
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 19: AVP and the dots came over and and and spoke

471
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,959
Speaker 19: to me, and you know, I s wanted to go

472
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 19: back in, but you know it it's a team decision,

473
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 19: you know, And I felt like, you know, of course,

474
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 19: you know, being the competitor, I want to play and

475
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 19: and try to you know, push it through. But at

476
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 19: the same time, what's what's like I said before many

477
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 19: times like what what's gonna be the best situation for

478
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 19: the team, and Tien was the best situation?

479
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 8: Strong in general?

480
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 12: Right now, how your speculation or sings written that perhaps

481
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 12: maybe you do that you don't want to play? So

482
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 12: can you just d address the moss?

483
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 19: Oh well, no, I wanna play. I just I just

484
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 19: worked my ass off for two years to get back

485
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 19: to playing. So why wouldn't I wanna play? This is

486
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 19: what I've been doing since I was six years old,

487
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 19: So why wouldn't I wanna play? I see the I

488
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 19: see the same things. I see all the the narratives,

489
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 19: this that the third I mean, all that stuff is

490
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,439
Speaker 19: just trying to call controversy in in in commotion. You know,

491
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 19: I'm fine, I'm happy. Uh I'm not happy with the injury,

492
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 19: but uh, you know, I'm I'm in a great space mentally,

493
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 19: I'm in a great space spiritually, uh physically, everything else

494
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 19: is in a great space except my shoulder. Uh so

495
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 19: we're working hard to get that back. But yeah, why

496
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 19: w why wouldn't I wanna play?

497
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 6: I don't.

498
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 19: I don't do this for no other reason. So uh, yeah,

499
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 19: I see that too. I see the whole contract situation

500
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 19: and all that stuff. Yeah, that stuff is just for

501
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 19: people to talk and and just great narratives, so much that.

502
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 7: You might not even wanna play for the grounds, like

503
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 7: you might be looking for somewhere else together.

504
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 19: Why would I do that?

505
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 7: I I I'm not saying it. I'm just saying that's

506
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 7: just some a natural national out there.

507
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 19: I mean none of those natural people have don't mean

508
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 19: they don't talk to me. So while wah, while would

509
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 19: anybody listen to any of that stuff? All that speculation?

510
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 19: So if it ain't coming from me, then all the

511
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 19: other So I.

512
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,360
Speaker 17: Thought it was important to to talk.

513
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 12: Today because there's just so much stuff swirling around. Did

514
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 12: you wanna address it even in your week that you're.

515
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 15: Not starting home?

516
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 5: Mo?

517
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 6: Nah, not at all.

518
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 19: I mean the one we got didn't talk was, you know,

519
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 19: a situation where I was doing something, you know, about

520
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,479
Speaker 19: my shoulder and I was with doctors and stuff. So

521
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 19: then it came out that I wasn't playing. So I mean,

522
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 19: I don't have and this is an and nothing against

523
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,640
Speaker 19: you guys, but I mean even in Houston, it wasn't

524
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 19: like a set day that I was gonna talk or

525
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 19: things like that. I guess it's a big deal.

526
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 6: Here.

527
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 19: So as long as you get your speak, uh, you know,

528
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 19: you interview in throughout the week. That's what I'm used to.

529
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 19: So this is the first time where I guess if

530
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 19: I don't speak on Wednesdays, it's a big deal. Uh,

531
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 19: I mean yeah, So i'm'a speak as many times as

532
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 19: I can, uh, once a week at least, unless you know,

533
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 19: I'm told otherwise, or I have to something else to do,

534
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 19: you know, on the medical side, but uh, just sure.

535
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 10: Has anyone through this process suggested surgery or said that

536
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 10: by at the end of the season you might need surgery?

537
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 12: No, sir, No, yeah, what the insidual swelling is that

538
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 12: something that has been lingering since you originally did this?

539
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 12: Or did that swelling that's in there right now come from.

540
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 19: The hit or all that you took an Indian Nah,

541
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,479
Speaker 19: it was from the original hit. You have to remember too.

542
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 19: It's like, you know, you hear doctors and you hear

543
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 19: people on lil I I know think I mentioned last

544
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 19: week too. It's uh, you know, this injury is more

545
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 19: like a you know, you gotta look as a picture

546
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 19: as a thrower, and usually pictures don't take collisions. Also,

547
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,239
Speaker 19: you gotta remember too, I got hit hard on it.

548
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 19: It's like a car crash. So that's gonna create more

549
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 19: swelling than just getting pulled back or just throwing and

550
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 19: it it just strained itself. So you know there's other

551
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 19: stuff that kind of factor in to the bruising and

552
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 19: the swelling around the rotator.

553
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 5: Dollar.

554
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 9: I remember spoke to you.

555
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 7: You had mentioned that that MRI came, uh the Saturday

556
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 7: before the game, cause the swelling had to go down

557
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 7: and that's where we found the the micro tears. Is

558
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 7: it the same situation right now where n the swelling

559
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 7: has to go down a little bit for them to

560
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 7: take another look at it just to make sure everything's okay.

561
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 19: Uh No, we took a m We got a m around.

562
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 19: Was it Monday? Was today? Thursday?

563
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 16: Eh?

564
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 19: Monday? So now that I know of, I mean, it

565
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 19: wasn't too much. Why it was just again like I said,

566
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 19: I hit the turf. It caused the reaction and it

567
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 19: was just the best situation that you know, I just

568
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 19: rest the rest of the game and this week and

569
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 19: you know, just get back to the drawing board and

570
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 19: you know, get the treatment in and and try to

571
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 19: you know, build that strength around it.

572
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 6: So the bye week Uh.

573
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 21: Andrewburry said that he thought this was gonna be a

574
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 21: short term terma issue, wasn't gonna linger for very long.

575
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 21: Is that still the case now that we're, you know,

576
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 21: three weeks down the line, and it's still unclare when

577
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 21: you're gonna come back to you Are you concerned that

578
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 21: this injury is gonna linger with you throughout the entire

579
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 21: season because the truth is you are gonna.

580
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 6: Get hit once you come back to that.

581
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 19: Well yeah, but at the same time, throughout those weeks

582
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,400
Speaker 19: that I'm not playing, I am doing strength worth and

583
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 19: and building a muscle around it. So uh, you know,

584
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 19: I I'm not sure if it's gonna linger or if

585
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 19: it's not. Uh, But in the situation right now, it's

586
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 19: more of just being able to control the ball and

587
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 19: things like that. You know, Like I said before, I

588
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 19: try to push through the pain. You know, he asked

589
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 19: me about Friday. You know, Friday was a sharp, you know,

590
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 19: control day. But it's not that I didn't have any

591
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 19: type of resistance throwing the football, you know. So uh,

592
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,479
Speaker 19: you know, at some point, whenever I do get back

593
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 19: to out there, I might I might not. I'm not sure.

594
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 19: You know, this is the first time I'm dealing with it,

595
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,400
Speaker 19: So I'm just you know, taking it as it comes and.

596
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 5: Controlling what I can control.

597
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 19: But right now it's you know, we're not in a

598
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 19: space where I should be out there right now.

599
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 21: So it's possible you're gonna come back at some point,

600
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 21: not the one hundred percent out to still kind.

601
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,199
Speaker 19: Of work through this well, I mean, of course, but

602
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 19: I don't think anybody is gonna be one hundred percent

603
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 19: throughout the year. So regardless if you're healthy or if

604
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 19: you're not healthy, I mean, once you get to November, December,

605
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 19: January football, no one's is is a hundred percent healthy.

606
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 19: So I'm trying to get to a percentage where I

607
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 19: can go out there and be very very beneficial for

608
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 19: the seam and uh win all the games.

609
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 3: Do you feel like you're on the same page with

610
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 3: the team as far as this week deciding.

611
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 19: To did like you focus on the rehappens? I? Man,

612
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 19: of course, you know, we all just came to together,

613
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 19: and you know there's no negative vibes or negative energy

614
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 19: with this team, with this locker room or anything referring

615
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 19: to It's this energy in this locker room and this

616
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 19: team and the coaching south to front office. We're in

617
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 19: a great space. We enjoy our victories. We don't care

618
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 19: how we get 'em, as long as we get those w's,

619
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 19: and uh, we keep it pushing and we keep it going.

620
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 19: So it's always the net man up and you know,

621
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 19: all the other stuff outside noise, we don't. We don't

622
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 19: pay attention to try to throw this week since uh

623
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 19: here and there a little bit. But you know, you

624
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 19: gotta take steps. You can't just jump. You know where

625
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 19: we wanna be right now. So you know, they doing

626
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 19: a lot to you know, pretty much hold me back

627
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 19: from not trying to throw too much, and you know,

628
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 19: do certain things. So you know, I just gotta follow

629
00:26:59,000 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 19: the steps.

630
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 5: And you know.

631
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 6: Where's that going off of that? You know you've played

632
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 6: injured in your career before.

633
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: For all the fans that are kind of giving you flag,

634
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 3: can you explain like how this is different than from

635
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 3: other injuries that you've suffering in the past.

636
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,959
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, you like you hit it, you hit

637
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 19: it right on the here. I mean I played with

638
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 19: injuries before. You know, being a quarterback you have to

639
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 19: throw the ball in the day. You know, I have

640
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 19: a a blessed ability to be able to run the

641
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 19: ball and then stem plays and things like that. But

642
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 19: every quarterback don't need that. If you you know, if

643
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 19: it was my throw left shoulder, you know, then I

644
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 19: can still use my right shoulder. But since I can't

645
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 19: use my right shoulder and that's my throwing arm, you know,

646
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 19: it's it's hard to direct balls. It's hard to get

647
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 19: the ball where I wanted to get to pass a

648
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,719
Speaker 19: certain amount with certain velocity while defenders is running around.

649
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 19: So I mean, it's it's the one thing that I

650
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 19: need to play the position at a high level, especially

651
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 19: so you know, like I said before, it's like asking

652
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 19: a receiver without a hamstring to go run. I mean,

653
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 19: that's it's it's crazy. You can't do that.

654
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 9: Oho.

655
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 13: A couple more, with everything that's happened in the last

656
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 13: two your long way home and the other's, how have

657
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 13: you been able to stay in a goodness space?

658
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 19: I've been good. I've been staying true to me. I'm

659
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 19: you know, very very secure with myself. Uh not in

660
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 19: an arrogant way, but I know who I am, and

661
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 19: that's how I've been able to s you know, stay

662
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 19: sane and stay you know, true to me. But the

663
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 19: most important thing is I know my Lord the Savior,

664
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,639
Speaker 19: and uh you know, I stay close to him. I

665
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 19: stay close to the ones that love me, the ones

666
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,959
Speaker 19: that really support me. And I just you know, focus

667
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 19: on that and all the other stuff.

668
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 2: If you you know, speak.

669
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 19: Negative or things like that, I just stay away from it.

670
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 19: And I just stay on my own lane. I don't

671
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 19: bother nobody. I just I go to work. I do

672
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 19: what I need to do.

673
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 2: Uh.

674
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 19: I love and and been around my teammates and this organization,

675
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 19: and uh, I just stay focused on that.

676
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 10: So do you try and used to and you you

677
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 10: weren't right?

678
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 6: Those are your words?

679
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 8: Did you know bad?

680
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 10: As soon as you threw that first pass to Jerome

681
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 10: forward that at all that hit the ground?

682
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 19: No, I mean no, not at all. You know, that

683
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 19: was the first play of the game. You know, a

684
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 19: lot of quarterbacks do that. They miss a hedge or

685
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 19: missus slant early on. I missed the first play of

686
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 19: the game. So Jerome was going opposite of the way

687
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 19: we were actually running. The finner was coming, and you

688
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 19: know it instead of a ball popped up or something

689
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 19: like that, excuse me, something like that happening. M You know,

690
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 19: we just went right at his feet and we were

691
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 19: on to.

692
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 6: The next one.

693
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 10: Did you know you weren't ready when as did?

694
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 5: You said?

695
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean we just at the end of the day,

696
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 19: we just I got hit and the injury was there.

697
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 19: So it was wasn't like au a injury where uh

698
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 19: I got ahead and uh I can just play through

699
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 19: it. It was a a painful injury during that process when

700
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 19: we were under the tent. So that's when we just

701
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 19: knew it wasn't It wasn't ton that funny.

702
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 12: For that four to six week time frame that you

703
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 12: initially told us about last week, Is that the same

704
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 12: as it was originally or did the clock reset at

705
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 12: all when you church you hit in Kenny?

706
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 19: I mean the four to sixth time right, that's that's

707
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 19: I think that's a generic, uh timeline for just the

708
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 19: normal just rotated though, you know, And I think I'm

709
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 19: saying that because that's what you know, the research says,

710
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 19: that's what you know, doctors typically say for you know,

711
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 19: pictures and baseball guys and all the research that we

712
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 19: done did. But you know, I, I mean, it can

713
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,959
Speaker 19: be longer. I I don't, I don't, I don't know.

714
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 19: You know, we just don't know. Until the staff till

715
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 19: the medical staff, till the coaching staff, till myself feel

716
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 19: very very comfortable that I can go out there and

717
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 19: be the quarterback you know people saw in Tennessee. Then

718
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 19: we just gotta, you know, take it day by day.

719
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 19: And I think that's what Kevin has been saying, and

720
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 19: that's what he's been trying to say, is there's no

721
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 19: certain timeline on uh, you know, on certain injuries. Some

722
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 19: you know, people bodies react differently. It's people, you know,

723
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 19: way they you know, come back, react differently, So it

724
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 19: might be shorter, it might be.

725
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 5: Longer, you know.

726
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 19: And that's why I said it could be tomorrow, could

727
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 19: be next week. I don't know, you know, we just

728
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 19: have to take it day by day.

729
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: To wrap up the day in the locker room, it

730
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: was offensive guard Joel Botonio. He talked about the fourth

731
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: down play that won the Browns the game and how

732
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: he and the rest of the guys blocked it up

733
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: and how he's seen p J Walker progress so far.

734
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 8: Uh you could say that, I guess. No, it was

735
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 8: good to be back out there and get the win.

736
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 8: Anytime you go out there with the with the guys

737
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 8: and compete that's what we all want to do. So

738
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 8: it was nice to get back out there and then

739
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 8: we gotta win.

740
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 22: Feel good Clark, you know, he'll probably play.

741
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 5: But the sounds that they.

742
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 23: Have eleven different players who have sas, is that a

743
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 23: more of a challenge to identify. So the line from

744
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 23: the quarterbacks, it's a big mix.

745
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 8: I think it's a testament to the way they play,

746
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 8: like they all go so hard all the time. So

747
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 8: there's just a mix if you if you want to,

748
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 8: you know, slide one way or the other, go to

749
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 8: Jamal Adams because he looks at the lot, or Bobby

750
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 8: Wagner like the d linemen have been making plays for him.

751
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 8: They have a good mix of scheme and and players.

752
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 8: But I think the thing stands out with them is

753
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 8: how hard they go constantly, Like they're constantly trying to

754
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 8: push the pocket, work second and third moves you know,

755
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 8: and hopefully were responsible for the four down guys or

756
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 8: you know when they're rushing. But we do got to

757
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 8: find who who we want to you know, point out

758
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 8: in the blitz pickups.

759
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 3: Obviously the running back who has been kind of in

760
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 3: a state of flax and not jerones and not out

761
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 3: there this week. But do you guys feel like from

762
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 3: a schematic standpoint, they kind of figure some stuff out

763
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 3: over the buy because it's been seems to make it's

764
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 3: been better in the last few weeks.

765
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, we we are, you know. I know they looked

766
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 8: at all the numbers and all those things, you know,

767
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 8: during the buy, what was working, what's not, And I

768
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 8: think just can comfortable with the ways different guys run.

769
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 8: I think we were so comfortable with, uh, the way

770
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 8: Nick ran the ball, and I mean he's a best

771
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 8: running back in the league, so he makes things work sometimes.

772
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 8: But no, I think we're getting more comfortable. I think

773
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 8: we saw some some good stuff this last week. And

774
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 8: and I think the bag thing for us is the efficiency,

775
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 8: Like we don't want to have these negative runs, and

776
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 8: we've had a decent amount of negative runs, and that's

777
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 8: usually like one guy blowing an assignment or something, and

778
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 8: it's not necessarily the line or the receivers or tight ends.

779
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,959
Speaker 8: It's you know, one from a group or something like that.

780
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 8: So we're trying to eliminate those because I think you

781
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 8: look a lot more efficient, you know, and that's gonna

782
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 8: keep you out of the second and fifteens or whatever

783
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 8: when you lose those yards.

784
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 5: You played one high set in your.

785
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 8: Career, Yeah, I was hurt that game. So this is

786
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 8: my first time out there.

787
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was.

788
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 8: Cho's gonna ask you where that ranks in terms of.

789
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 6: I've hurt lenge.

790
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, I've heard it's loud. A lot of people have

791
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 8: told me it's loud, and which is a little bit

792
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 8: unique because of the open air, you know, stadium, but

793
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 8: the way they have it set up, it's kind of

794
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 8: like a theater, so I think it keeps a noise

795
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 8: in there to the game. I did not go to

796
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 8: the game.

797
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 9: Yeah I was.

798
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 8: I think I was on IR at that point, my uh,

799
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 8: second year, so I've not been there before. But I've

800
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 8: heard it's challenging and chilled.

801
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 20: The ball as an always bounce you guys way during

802
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 20: your tenure year. How nice has it been in the

803
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 20: last two weeks to I don't you know, overcome some

804
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 20: things and get some breaks.

805
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's it's good. I you know, you hope it

806
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 8: evens out like throughout your career, but there's a multiple

807
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 8: times in my career where I felt we've been on

808
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 8: the wrong side of some of those things, and and uh,

809
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 8: I don't know why won sticks out, But one time

810
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 8: Duke Johnson's like had the ball in his hands after

811
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 8: he fumbled, I was handing to the refts and they

812
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 8: were still pointing it the other way, and I was

813
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 8: just like, I don't know how this makes any sense.

814
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 8: But there's been a few of those moments, you know

815
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 8: what I mean, where we've been been the wrong end.

816
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 8: So it's, uh, it's one of the things that we

817
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 8: try and control. We can control as a as a

818
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 8: as a team, but in certain situations sometimes the rest

819
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 8: are part of the game and and they make those calls.

820
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 8: But it was nice to have have some calls go

821
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 8: our way the last last couple of weeks, and you know,

822
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 8: hopefully we can stay out of those, so it's not

823
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,760
Speaker 8: as quite as close, you know, coming down the stretch.

824
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 10: Jed, I mean, Joe, what did you see him from

825
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 10: jad in the last two games. It seems like he's

826
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 10: really played involvement last year.

827
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, he's he's come out with a lot of energy.

828
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 8: He's playing hard. You see some excitement, like he's you know,

829
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,439
Speaker 8: one of the first ones down there on that long

830
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,439
Speaker 8: touchdown run and and make a play trying to finish

831
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 8: his blocks. I think he's just trying to take a

832
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 8: step in his game and and and you know, be

833
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 8: that energy. Especially when I was out, I think he

834
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,439
Speaker 8: was like, all right, I can step up a little

835
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 8: bit and help this team. And he's done a really

836
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 8: good job. He's really focused on on just trying to

837
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 8: be the best version of himself and and play through

838
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 8: the whistle. But it's been good last couple weeks and

839
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 8: we're hoping to keep building on that.

840
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 5: You could play from so many quarterbacks here, p J.

841
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 10: Walker have something something that others haven't had.

842
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 8: He I don't know, he's he's very in command of

843
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 8: the huddle, you know what I mean. Like he's confident.

844
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 8: There's never a question about if he believes that we're

845
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 8: gonna win. And it's a quiet confidence, you know, with him.

846
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 8: But but he's found away the last couple of weeks,

847
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 8: and I think you feel get his career. You know,

848
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 8: I think he had that Hell Mary against you know,

849
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 8: when he was playing for the Panthers and stuff. So

850
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 8: he's had some plays and some wins in his career

851
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 8: and you get reps and you know, the other leagues

852
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 8: that he was playing in, so he's all that experience

853
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 8: and and we're supporting him. You know, every time you

854
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 8: have see go.

855
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 3: Out there talk about resilience and you guys are shown

856
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 3: in multiple times this year, where do.

857
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:57,720
Speaker 16: You think they are?

858
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 20: Sure?

859
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 8: It's one of our core value of the team. We

860
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 8: want to be resilient. We know the seasons, the long season,

861
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 8: We know games are long games. Last week was a

862
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 8: roller coaster in itself, you know, eight lead changes and

863
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 8: all that, all that stuff, so we understand that, like,

864
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 8: not everything's gonna be perfect. There's stretches there where our

865
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,320
Speaker 8: defense is playing outstanding and we have to be resilient

866
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 8: on offense and you know vice versa. But it's just

867
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 8: something that coaches preaches all the time. He's like, how

868
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 8: resilient can be the most resilient team you know, wins

869
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,439
Speaker 8: a lot of these close games and doing I would

870
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 8: assume that comes in and play winning games that die

871
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 8: you're starting quarterback. Oh, you know, anytime you go out

872
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 8: there and get a win when you're not which a

873
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:38,720
Speaker 8: lot of teams are, but you're not one hundred percent,

874
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 8: it's it's big for us and we wanted to really

875
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 8: win a road game, stack a win last week and

876
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 8: try and build on that. So we have another huge

877
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 8: challenge this week. But but no, it's it was definitely

878
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,320
Speaker 8: some resilient effort. Last week, Kevin.

879
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 22: Said he knew he was gonna run the ball if

880
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 22: it got to fourth down the games. Okay, so for

881
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 22: you guys as a line, what does that mean to

882
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 22: you that he was gonna trust you guys.

883
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 9: And do or die?

884
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, it's big time. I was trying to uh

885
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 8: calm or huddle down a little bit a few times.

886
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 8: We're a little excited there, and I was like, you know,

887
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 8: we got to play one play at a time. Do

888
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 8: what it's called. You know, they'll give us a chance,

889
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 8: you know if we need to. But uh, it's it's

890
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 8: a lot of a lot of faith in us and

891
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 8: and we we want to be that team that if

892
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 8: we're on the one yard, like we can call a

893
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 8: run and hopefully score and and get in there. And

894
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 8: Kareem's you know the back you want back there for

895
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 8: that because he's he's gonna find a way to get

896
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 8: in the end.

897
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 10: So she gets reaching for the last play there to

898
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 10: run the ball.

899
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 8: There's a few there's a few guys say we should

900
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 8: we should uh you know, run the ball. But with

901
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 8: the clock left. I think if you look at the

902
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 8: clock management and and how it worked out, like you

903
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 8: would hope to get in there. But if you don't,

904
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 8: you probably lose a play. And if you have a

905
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 8: jumbo group on the field, you run the ball and

906
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 8: then you have to spike the ball with the jumble

907
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:47,959
Speaker 8: group of trying to run a pass play with a jumper,

908
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 8: you know, it makes it a lot more complicated. You

909
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 8: could have run it in there, though, I think I

910
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 8: think there's always that possibility, But you know, I'm just stressing,

911
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 8: like call with you know, execute what's called and and

912
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,760
Speaker 8: hopefully we will make it happen. With your scattering report

913
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 8: on Nick Harris now is a full back pretty good.

914
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 8: There's all very many fullbacks left in the league, so

915
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 8: he's you know, like one of ten guys that plays

916
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 8: fullback in this league now. But he's done a good

917
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 8: job for us. Hopefully get him some routes here coming up,

918
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 8: you know, get him the ball a little bit. But no,

919
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 8: he's done a good job. I think in the Niners

920
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,360
Speaker 8: game there's a couple where he got to come downhill

921
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 8: and smack some people. So he's liking he wants to

922
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 8: get on the field and to help the guys out.

923
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,919
Speaker 8: So anytime we get some more lineman on the field,

924
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 8: we get excited about him.

925
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,320
Speaker 22: What does it say about a guy like that, because obviously,

926
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 22: you know, we know what happened with being through last

927
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 22: year and so his roles changed a lot, but he's

928
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 22: just willing to kind of embrace a different.

929
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 8: Weird role as Yeah, he was excited for it, you know.

930
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 8: I think every time we have a package with him

931
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 8: going into a fullback, he gets he gets excited, and

932
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 8: you know, coach Callahan does a good job of coaching

933
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 8: him up on his responsibilities. But for him, I think

934
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 8: it just shows he wants to do anything he can

935
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 8: to help the team win. And and every lineman has

936
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 8: that dream of you know, being a being a skill

937
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 8: player at one point or another, So I think I

938
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 8: think he just gets to live that little bit.

939
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 1: When the players were done, the coordinators were next to

940
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 1: talk to the media, and special teams coordinator Boba Ventron

941
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: went first. He talked about the Miles Garrett block and

942
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: how the special teams unit has been limiting their penalties,

943
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:14,240
Speaker 1: is enabling.

944
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 12: Him to kick all these fifty plots.

945
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,760
Speaker 13: That's that's a good question, I would say, hard work

946
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 13: in consistency with the weekly routine.

947
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 2: I think that that's really been the difference.

948
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 10: Block field goals, jump over the mons stammer.

949
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 2: We execute it well.

950
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 13: Everyone involved on that play, especially the guy that blocked it.

951
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 2: Heck of a job of execution.

952
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 13: And we just saw a matchup opportunity that we liked

953
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 13: and this guy's execute it well into that.

954
00:39:54,640 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 10: Other than the great play thereby by Miles.

955
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 13: Just everyone in the play, I mean Shelby, Jay Denzel,

956
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 13: every everybody, everybody factored in there for the for the

957
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 13: matchup that we saw and just you know, good execution

958
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 13: on the play overall.

959
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 6: A lot of dangerous is.

960
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 3: That because if you touched somebody right to be a

961
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 3: fifteen years right?

962
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 6: So like is there do you consider it a risk

963
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 6: calum that play?

964
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 13: I mean, it's a calculated risk, but I had, you know,

965
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 13: confidence in our our guys. We practiced it well, and

966
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 13: you know, practice execution equals game reality is what a

967
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 13: great coach once told me.

968
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,479
Speaker 22: Practice that play like to actually see what it's gonna

969
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 22: look like in a game.

970
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 2: I mean, whenever we when we have our field goal period,

971
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 2: that's when we ran it. So we ran it a

972
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 2: handful of times during the week, which coach shared that

973
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 2: with you, Bill Belichick.

974
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 14: Do Denzel earlier and he said, help saying where to

975
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 14: pull that play out?

976
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 8: How what was your emotion like when.

977
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 9: You when we got the block?

978
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 2: I mean it's pretty obvious, right.

979
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 9: I think Miles said after.

980
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,439
Speaker 23: The game that you noticed their linement really quote low

981
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 23: that's the key.

982
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: To call them that.

983
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 13: Yeah, And so I mean, look, I coached there for

984
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,319
Speaker 13: five years, so they had a guy that didn't play

985
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 13: in the game, that had been on the other side

986
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 13: of the line for the entire time that I was there.

987
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 13: So we look, we saw an opportunity with the personnel,

988
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 13: and fortunately for us, we got really good execution from

989
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 13: our players to get the block.

990
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 6: Just waiting to bring us out against your former.

991
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 2: Team, No, I think that, you know.

992
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 13: I mean, Tony asked a few weeks ago, do I

993
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 13: have any tricks on my sleeve? Everyone has them, it's

994
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 13: just when are you going to use them? When is

995
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 13: the right opportunity to use them? So, look, we're always

996
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 13: going to have things ready to go, and whenever we

997
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 13: see an opportunity with personnel matchups things we like, then

998
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 13: we'll just use them as as we see it.

999
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 9: Well as part of.

1000
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 14: That thought process because it was a sixty year kid,

1001
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 14: you thought the trajectory played start or or did you

1002
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 14: call it when it was a thirty.

1003
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 13: Five years fild not necessarily, I think that you know

1004
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 13: it was To me, it was the right It felt

1005
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,240
Speaker 13: like the right time to call it. A lot of times,

1006
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 13: I'm always going to call the game based on you know,

1007
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 13: you can have a plan going into the game, and

1008
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:31,879
Speaker 13: then that plan is going to change at some point

1009
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 13: based on momentum, you know, how your team's doing in

1010
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 13: that In that in that instance, things changed throughout the game,

1011
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 13: and I feel like the way I call it a

1012
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 13: lot of times is based off instinct. I just feel

1013
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,400
Speaker 13: like I felt like it was a good time to

1014
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 13: call it.

1015
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 2: And I'm glad I did we Actually we actually called it.

1016
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 2: We called it Indy. Yeah, we called it Indy to

1017
00:42:59,120 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 2: do that.

1018
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,320
Speaker 12: And do you ever get you wonder if it won't.

1019
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 13: Be No, I mean, I don't know why it wouldn't be,

1020
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 13: as long as you're not contacting the offensive line.

1021
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 10: So we just got a report on the on the

1022
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 10: Seahawks special teams.

1023
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 6: They're good.

1024
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 2: They're physical group, physical group.

1025
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,760
Speaker 13: Their coordinator I played with Larry Azo in New England

1026
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 13: whenever I was a young player, learned a lot from him.

1027
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 13: He's a he's a good coach, and his teams reflect

1028
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 13: his play style as a player. He was a super

1029
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 13: super instinctive, physical football player, and his team has kind

1030
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:41,759
Speaker 13: of taken.

1031
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,280
Speaker 2: On his his style of play.

1032
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 6: Peers playing a lot or even running back one beak.

1033
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 13: Can he still be a kick return we're looking at

1034
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,400
Speaker 13: We're looking at some other players there, but he's an

1035
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 13: option for sure still.

1036
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 9: Yep.

1037
00:43:58,960 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 5: The state of the.

1038
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:03,240
Speaker 6: Turn game, it seems like every week it's been changed.

1039
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1040
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 13: I mean, look, we've had we've had, you know, some injuries.

1041
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 13: We've had to you know, we've lost some guys tow

1042
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 13: bigger roles offensively, obviously with Jerome.

1043
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 2: So as the roster.

1044
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:22,240
Speaker 13: Changes, we have to adapt, and I think our players

1045
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 13: have handled it pretty well.

1046
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 2: Dustin said that he's always felt that he could consistently.

1047
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 5: Hit those fifty yard field goals.

1048
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 14: He just maybe didn't get the opportunities early in a

1049
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:34,240
Speaker 14: season with different teams.

1050
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 5: For you, guys, what made you confident.

1051
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 2: Early on to let him go for those for those

1052
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 2: longer ones.

1053
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 13: I mean we've seen it in practice, We've seen him

1054
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:46,240
Speaker 13: have the accuracy, you know, the timing, the accuracy, the elevation,

1055
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 13: everything's been good in practice and he's done a good

1056
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 13: job of like I said, you take it from the

1057
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 13: practice field to the game. Rarely, rarely do you see,

1058
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 13: you know, a play not work in practice work in

1059
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 13: a game. So you need to be able to do

1060
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 13: it in practice and then take it to the game

1061
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 13: on Sunday. So our guys in all of our units

1062
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 13: have done that in a pretty good way.

1063
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 9: Season.

1064
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 23: When you talked about how much you hate kind of

1065
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 23: what's your running total right now?

1066
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 16: In kind of.

1067
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 2: Reason, are you pleased?

1068
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,800
Speaker 13: We've actually we probably have more penalties than it feels

1069
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 13: or than it because we haven't done it.

1070
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 9: We haven't done a.

1071
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 13: Bad job as far as you know, poor decision making

1072
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 13: like the result in penalties like like blocking a guy

1073
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 13: in the back or something like that.

1074
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 2: We've had a couple like not to say dumb, but we've.

1075
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 13: Had a couple of like dumb penalties, Like we had

1076
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 13: a we had a delay game at the end of the.

1077
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 2: I think it was a sand frame game. Maybe that

1078
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 2: you know what, it didn't hurt us there.

1079
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,280
Speaker 13: Like last week Tony jumped off sides, which we actually

1080
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,800
Speaker 13: turned into the league and it was illegal. The snapper

1081
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 13: takes his hand off the ball and pops his head up,

1082
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:58,799
Speaker 13: so Tony jumps off sides on a return. It's like

1083
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 13: fourth and seventeen. So we've had a couple of those,

1084
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 13: you know, penalties, But I think we're playing pretty clean overall,

1085
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 13: and I'm I'm actually happy with how we've done as

1086
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:17,439
Speaker 13: far as the penalties go, and not like making fouls.

1087
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 13: Of how many we've had, I don't know, honestly, like

1088
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 13: because like how I how I see it as like

1089
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 13: are we are we really hurting?

1090
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 2: Are we hurting the.

1091
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 13: Team by making a bad decision and blocking in the

1092
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 13: back that's going to give us a poor drive start.

1093
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 13: We haven't really had that, so you haven't really seen

1094
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 13: those at the end of a play. It's really been

1095
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 13: like almost like pre snapped to a degree.

1096
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 12: Do you feel on special teams that you guys have to,

1097
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 12: you know, really step it up even more so and

1098
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 12: create great field positions turns and make those kicks and

1099
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:53,760
Speaker 12: do everything.

1100
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,400
Speaker 13: I would never I would never really say that. I

1101
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 13: feel like every week we're talking about trolling field position.

1102
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,879
Speaker 13: Regardless of who's who the quarterback is. We always want

1103
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,879
Speaker 13: to give our offense the best drive star possible, our

1104
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 13: defense the best drive star possible to succeed. So you know,

1105
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 13: everybody's going to do Everyone's going to do their job.

1106
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 13: Our job is to do as best we can to

1107
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 13: give the offense the best field position.

1108
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 23: Remember when PJ Walker came to Indianapolis, Surprise.

1109
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, he was my He was my scout team kick returner.

1110
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 13: I didn't know he was PJ until a few years later.

1111
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 13: I used to call him Phil.

1112
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 5: So are you surprised.

1113
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 13: I'll say this, like, and there's guys on our team

1114
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,280
Speaker 13: that have said this as well, like Phil, you know PJ.

1115
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:48,720
Speaker 9: Phil.

1116
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:51,800
Speaker 13: I I still call him Phil. He's like, you're the

1117
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 13: only one who calls me Phil. I'm like, well, I

1118
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,359
Speaker 13: don't know you as PJ. Like you don't call me,

1119
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,480
Speaker 13: you know, not Bubba. But no, I mean I think

1120
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,240
Speaker 13: the kids like he's just got that they gamer in him,

1121
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 13: you know, I think I think he does.

1122
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 2: He's he's he's an instinctive football player.

1123
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 13: He makes plays with his feet, he's got a strong

1124
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 13: arm and obviously like he's done a good like since

1125
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 13: he left us in Indie back in whatever that was,

1126
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 13: I think nineteen was his last year there. I mean,

1127
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 13: he's done pretty well. So I was when when I

1128
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 13: found out we were going to get him here.

1129
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 2: I was excited to have him Dustin.

1130
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 17: I know he talked about too that he feels like

1131
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 17: since he got here it's been kind of like this

1132
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 17: collaborative process almost especially in practices and like you guys

1133
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 17: asking him what he feels like he needs to work

1134
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 17: on and and that part of it. I guess, like,

1135
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 17: how much is that part of your coaching style? How

1136
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 17: have you developed that and that collaborative process.

1137
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 13: I always, yeah, I think that Like for me, I

1138
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,320
Speaker 13: always want to try to make the specialists as comfortable

1139
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 13: as possible.

1140
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 2: You know, to a degree. You know, I would like to.

1141
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,399
Speaker 13: I like them to do what they want to do,

1142
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 13: and I'm going to be there to supervise and obviously

1143
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,839
Speaker 13: give him my input and feedback. But I want him

1144
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 13: to if he doesn't want to hit a lot of balls,

1145
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 13: and it's going to be.

1146
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 2: Better for him in the long run. Like that's what

1147
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 2: That's what I want.

1148
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 10: Any other question about those penalties, Every special teams coach

1149
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 10: tries to tell their players who don't hold, don't.

1150
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 9: Block them back.

1151
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,919
Speaker 5: But you're seeing to be more successful.

1152
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,520
Speaker 6: So why why is that.

1153
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 13: I hit our guys on it every week, every Friday.

1154
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 13: I mean I'm hitting them on a NonStop. I showed

1155
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 13: things from throughout the league, poor decision making, you know,

1156
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,240
Speaker 13: understanding the roles, how the officials are calling the game.

1157
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,000
Speaker 13: So I feel like our guys have a good awareness

1158
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 13: and understanding of how the officials are calling the game

1159
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 13: and what not to do, and then just making good decisions,

1160
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:51,799
Speaker 13: making good decisions. Back to the Phil Walker, Yeah, so

1161
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 13: he I showed a clip of him from Indy as

1162
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 13: a kick returner a couple of weeks ago on my

1163
00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 13: Friday meeting as well, I.

1164
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:00,400
Speaker 6: Was the only guy on the team that do what

1165
00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 6: he did. Do you have other guys could do to

1166
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 6: stand still, jump over every.

1167
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1168
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 13: I'm not sure, but we didn't have any trials. I

1169
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 13: knew that, I knew that we had a.

1170
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 2: Good guy to do it.

1171
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,880
Speaker 13: But yeah, well, we're always going to have, you know,

1172
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 13: an idea of someone's skill set and who can potentially

1173
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 13: do one of those things.

1174
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:22,520
Speaker 2: So I always try to I was.

1175
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,480
Speaker 13: I mean, most coaches will do that, but everything I

1176
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,239
Speaker 13: do is I feel like his game plan specific to

1177
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 13: the opponent I'm going to try to do put my

1178
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 13: guys in the best spot, the best matchup to.

1179
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,120
Speaker 2: Match up against a guy. I don't want to put

1180
00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 2: a guy in.

1181
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 13: A spot where I'm asking him to do something that

1182
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 13: he can't do or that he can't win in a

1183
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 13: in a matchup.

1184
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 14: Which was that you should.

1185
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 13: Which Friday meeting it was? I think it was actually

1186
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:52,360
Speaker 13: a I think it was actually a Saturday meeting. I

1187
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,800
Speaker 13: started on a Saturday, maybe like two or three weeks ago.

1188
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, was in the place that.

1189
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,840
Speaker 18: The typically you know, play it regularly, you know, But

1190
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 18: what makes it a challenging place where you expected in

1191
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 18: terms of conditions, in terms of for especially for a

1192
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 18: guy like Dustin.

1193
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 13: So I've I played in San France for two years.

1194
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 13: We played there a number of times, including the loudest

1195
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 13: game I've ever played in the NFC played or coached

1196
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,359
Speaker 13: in the NFC Championship in thirteen. It's to me, it's

1197
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 13: a lot of stadium in the league. It's hard to

1198
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 13: play there. The crowd is definitely an impact, and we

1199
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 13: have definitely prepared and we are preparing our players to

1200
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 13: handle the noise both on offense, defense and in the

1201
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 13: kicking game.

1202
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:42,160
Speaker 2: It's it is.

1203
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 13: It's a fun place to play, it's a fun place

1204
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 13: to coach, great environment, so our guys should not be

1205
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,839
Speaker 13: surprised when we get there and understand how loud it's

1206
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 13: going to be. Like, it's going to be loud, So

1207
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 13: we're trying to do our best to prepare them for that.

1208
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:03,839
Speaker 23: Well, what the clip of Phil was that to make

1209
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 23: fun or was there something special about it?

1210
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:06,360
Speaker 7: Was?

1211
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 13: I mean he was I mean he was literally my

1212
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 13: like scout team kick returner for most of the season.

1213
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,239
Speaker 13: So I was just making a joke that you know,

1214
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,319
Speaker 13: he was starting in the game. It might have been verse,

1215
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 13: it might have been the first game he ended up

1216
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 13: coming in.

1217
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 2: And yeah, he was good. He was good, like guys were.

1218
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 2: Guys were shocked that he was actually like the kick returner.

1219
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 2: And then I told him that I showed and he

1220
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 2: was He laughed obviously.

1221
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,000
Speaker 14: So well, another question about Seattle and Jason Myers has

1222
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:33,840
Speaker 14: been one of the more.

1223
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 2: Consistent kickers for that fall long time.

1224
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 14: Yeah, I'm not asking you like give away six secrets here,

1225
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:42,240
Speaker 14: but when you evaluate when a unit life, for example,

1226
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:44,839
Speaker 14: the field walk, it is as efficient as they are.

1227
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 9: Where are your eyes feel first? Are you looking at.

1228
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,840
Speaker 6: Something on the line or you looking at.

1229
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 14: That snap, Like, how do you evaluate when something goes

1230
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 14: so well on.

1231
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 2: That Yeah, you look at everything.

1232
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,440
Speaker 13: I mean, like with the field goal operation, it starts

1233
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 13: with the snap, the hole and the kick. You're looking

1234
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 13: at at the protection. He's been He's definitely been an

1235
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:05,759
Speaker 13: effective kicker. He does a good job. He gets good

1236
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,760
Speaker 13: elevation on his kicks. He's got good timing and tempo

1237
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 13: to the ball. You know, Larry's done a good job

1238
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 13: with him out there, and uh yeah, he's he's definitely

1239
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 13: been a weapon for them, and and the punter. The

1240
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:21,279
Speaker 13: punters a dude too, No, Michael Dixon, he is. He's

1241
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:22,040
Speaker 13: a real deal.

1242
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 2: Time the col lost with the group, Is that right?

1243
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 13: I told you guys it was going to be open though,

1244
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 13: you know, and it was like it was not warm.

1245
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,320
Speaker 2: It was not on our sideline. It was not warm

1246
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:41,359
Speaker 2: over in the sun.

1247
00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 9: It was a little bit.

1248
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: Offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt talk next. He talked about

1249
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 1: how important it is that PJ. Walker is getting more

1250
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,360
Speaker 1: reps this week and how the team is planning to

1251
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 1: handle the Deshaun Watson injury situation.

1252
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 12: Yeah, it seems like you really more than anyone understands,

1253
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:58,719
Speaker 12: you know, kind of what Deshaun he's gone through when

1254
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 12: it comes to the shoulder and people questioning whether or

1255
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 12: not he actually should be playing an apic. Can you

1256
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,879
Speaker 12: talk about how like you really get it?

1257
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean, it's it's it's a tough spot to

1258
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:09,440
Speaker 16: be it.

1259
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 24: I mean, he, like I said last week, he's a

1260
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,840
Speaker 24: thrower and you can't throw at one hundred percent and

1261
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:18,399
Speaker 24: it's tough to go out and play. It's not by

1262
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 24: lack of want. I can tell that. I know he's frustrated.

1263
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,120
Speaker 24: I know he's trying to do everything he can to

1264
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:24,719
Speaker 24: get back on the field with his teammates.

1265
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:26,960
Speaker 16: And he showed that last week.

1266
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,359
Speaker 24: You know, he came out and fought through, got back,

1267
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,919
Speaker 24: had some practice time late in the week, and tried

1268
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 24: to be out there on Sunday. You know, I know

1269
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:37,799
Speaker 24: he's frustrated. It's just part of the deal. I mean,

1270
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 24: and when he's healthy, he'll be back and we just

1271
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:41,840
Speaker 24: can't wait to get him healthy.

1272
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 6: He thought he was ready and then he realized he

1273
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:46,880
Speaker 6: was not ready. What did you guys think? Did you

1274
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:48,479
Speaker 6: think he was ready and realized he wasn't ready?

1275
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 24: You know, you see the practice on Friday, it was

1276
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 24: better than Thursday. You know, two more days of rest,

1277
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:57,279
Speaker 24: maybe you know, feel a lot better on Sunday. And

1278
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:58,799
Speaker 24: then you know, he took the hit, and the hit

1279
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 24: was really for us. It was all right, let's let's

1280
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,400
Speaker 24: let's uh, let's let's put PJ in there, you know,

1281
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 24: and and let him heal up a little more. He

1282
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,360
Speaker 24: didn't look like himself early. You know, he had to

1283
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:10,440
Speaker 24: throw there that was probably a little short than he

1284
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 24: usually would throw. So there was just some of the

1285
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:15,760
Speaker 24: things that we that went into that decision. But uh,

1286
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 24: you know, hats all. He tried to get back, He

1287
00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,120
Speaker 24: did everything he could to be out there, and then

1288
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:22,440
Speaker 24: you know, the hit happened, and we just held him

1289
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:22,839
Speaker 24: after that.

1290
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 6: Because he's gonna get hit again.

1291
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:26,240
Speaker 8: Sure back out.

1292
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 24: There absolutely, Uh you're you're you know, every hit could

1293
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:33,319
Speaker 24: be a big hit. You don't know what's going to happen.

1294
00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:35,720
Speaker 24: It just so happened and happened to aggravate the shoulder again.

1295
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 24: So you know, again, I think when he feels like

1296
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,200
Speaker 24: he could throw it a hundred percent, you know, the

1297
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 24: hits will just.

1298
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:43,400
Speaker 16: Be what they are at that point.

1299
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:44,720
Speaker 19: But he's.

1300
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean, that's that's part of it, you know,

1301
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 24: But what's that percentage that gets him back out on

1302
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:51,239
Speaker 24: the field where he feels like he can compete. That's

1303
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 24: that's the thing we're looking for, and that's where he's

1304
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,600
Speaker 24: trying to get to. I've been in that situation. I

1305
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 24: had an ac third degree in in a in a

1306
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 24: preseason game in Denver. I set out most of the

1307
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:03,040
Speaker 24: year and I ended up starting three games at the

1308
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,399
Speaker 24: end of that year, and I was not one hundred percent.

1309
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,319
Speaker 24: That's not a comfortable feeling as a thrower to go

1310
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,319
Speaker 24: out there and have to throw a twenty five yard

1311
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 24: comeback and you know that you don't quite have that

1312
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:12,839
Speaker 24: arm strength at that time to get it there. So

1313
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,799
Speaker 24: I can definitely say I've sat in his shoes and

1314
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:19,279
Speaker 24: it's not a comfortable feeling. Again, when he's healthy, I

1315
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 24: can't wait to get him back out on the field.

1316
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 7: You no, I'm that.

1317
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,279
Speaker 12: You know, even by all the first pass two wasn't

1318
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 12: a good But did you know on just Julian Blackman's

1319
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 12: interception that he just did not have the post.

1320
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:31,439
Speaker 24: That's what it looked like. You know, he was trying

1321
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:33,359
Speaker 24: to juice it out there and it fell a little

1322
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:35,840
Speaker 24: bit short. So that's when, you know, kind of you know,

1323
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:37,920
Speaker 24: I don't know if he's quite quite ready to be

1324
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 24: out there, and we wanted to give him every opportunity

1325
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,920
Speaker 24: to he's our leader, you know, but it just didn't

1326
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 24: happen on Sunday. So, you know, get him back in there,

1327
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,480
Speaker 24: get him healthy, get him in the rehab, you know,

1328
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 24: do his rehab process and go through that, and again,

1329
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 24: can't wait to get a healthy to shaw him back

1330
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 24: out of the field.

1331
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 6: So he wanted to go back out in the game.

1332
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:57,319
Speaker 24: How hard did he fight to get back out there.

1333
00:56:58,080 --> 00:56:58,239
Speaker 9: You know.

1334
00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 24: Deshaun's a great you know, teammate, great person. He respects

1335
00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 24: obviously the coach's opinion, I think, and Kevin you know,

1336
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 24: talk to him and I think, you know, I think

1337
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:10,239
Speaker 24: at that point he actually had an idea how he

1338
00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,760
Speaker 24: felt and probably felt like that was the best decision

1339
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 24: for the team at that time. But again, he tried

1340
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 24: everything he could to get out there last week and got.

1341
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 16: There, you know, and then you know, just didn't pan out.

1342
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,280
Speaker 24: Knowing that he started this week for you guys, how

1343
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 24: helpful was that.

1344
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 17: In this process this week and again just gaining his

1345
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 17: comfortability with his offense.

1346
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 24: It's huge you know, he took the reps last Wednesday,

1347
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:36,400
Speaker 24: you know, and then really split him up on Thursday

1348
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 24: and then take him on Friday.

1349
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 16: So having a full week of practice will only help.

1350
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 24: Now will be his third time going in third week

1351
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 24: of preparation where he's getting first team reps.

1352
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 16: Yesterday's practice was really sharp.

1353
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 24: I was really impressed with him in the offenses in general,

1354
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 24: how we performed yesterday.

1355
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 16: So that's an education.

1356
00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 24: Just keep getting better each week each practice, you know,

1357
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 24: just keep trending upward.

1358
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 10: They didn't pick him Frank Clark.

1359
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 18: Besides that, they have eleven different guys who have had sacks,

1360
00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 18: so they come from everywhere.

1361
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 12: Obviously.

1362
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 5: Is that a challenge mostly on the line to identify

1363
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 5: where it's coming from, where the quarterback.

1364
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:16,360
Speaker 24: It falls on everybody really, you know, the receivers not

1365
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 24: so much, but the protection backs, the tight ends when

1366
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 24: they protect the quarterback. You know, they have good scheme.

1367
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:25,560
Speaker 24: They have a very active front. You know, there's a

1368
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 24: lot of movement. Their pressure packages are good. So you know,

1369
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,040
Speaker 24: we have to be on top of our game. That's

1370
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 24: one thing we talked about. Playing out there is not easy.

1371
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 24: So letting these guys kind of especially the guys that

1372
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 24: have not been out there, give them kind of an

1373
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 24: idea of what's coming until you actually hear that and

1374
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 24: the noise and you can't hear a thing in the huddle.

1375
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,400
Speaker 24: You know, we we've really got to focus on our preparation.

1376
00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 24: So when we go there, it's not really thinking about

1377
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,440
Speaker 24: the play. It's reacting and understanding. Hey I only heard

1378
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:52,280
Speaker 24: one word, but I have to put it all together.

1379
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 24: So just trying to get those guys ready to go

1380
00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,240
Speaker 24: out and operate on the road.

1381
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 18: Deshaun obviously went through his normal pregame routine and everything.

1382
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 18: When you get after the pregame was over, did you

1383
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 18: guys feel like you saw what you wanted to see

1384
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 18: out of him during that.

1385
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:08,520
Speaker 16: Felt like it was it was good enough to give

1386
00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 16: him a chance to go out there and start.

1387
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:13,520
Speaker 9: Yeah, just your number one.

1388
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:17,439
Speaker 6: Focus with him limiting the cutting back on those turnover.

1389
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 24: Where he played absolutely, Yeah, absolutely. Uh, you just keep

1390
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 24: talking about making great decisions. You know, if we can

1391
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 24: go into Seattle and not give them the ball at

1392
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 24: all on our side of the ball, it gives us

1393
00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 24: a chance. So just you know, just talking about how

1394
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 24: important it is making great decisions. The interception that he

1395
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:39,480
Speaker 24: had in this game. You know, it was just a

1396
00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 24: throw that just leaked too far back inside. It was

1397
00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:43,959
Speaker 24: a compliment of a couple of things on the other side.

1398
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 24: But that was a chance there. You know that that

1399
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,360
Speaker 24: just it wasn't a decision. The decision was correct to

1400
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 24: throw it. It was just where the ball ended up

1401
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 24: planning on that that long interception. But uh, you know,

1402
00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:55,840
Speaker 24: he he's uh, he understands that he's played a lot

1403
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 24: in this league. He's played games. He's not one two

1404
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 24: for us, so you know, he knows what to do.

1405
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 24: We just got to, you know, we go out and

1406
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:05,080
Speaker 24: play that perfect clean game where we have a nice

1407
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 24: clean slate at the end of the day.

1408
01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 14: Now it's the want to ask you about the Russian attack.

1409
01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:13,000
Speaker 14: Obviously the first couple of weeks with healthy or some

1410
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,760
Speaker 14: big numbers, but that room's obviously got a little bit

1411
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:19,160
Speaker 14: fitter and yet still effective efficient right now number two

1412
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,880
Speaker 14: in the AFC rushing ball. What do you generally attribute

1413
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 14: your Russian success as the team too?

1414
01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:27,120
Speaker 24: Right now, it's a team, you know, team stat for

1415
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,160
Speaker 24: all of us, that's the receivers on the perimeter, that's

1416
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 24: everybody up front, that's the runners. You know, We've always

1417
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 24: ran the ball well here, and the coach Callahan you know,

1418
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 24: has great scheme, great technique and his teaching where it's

1419
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 24: it's definitely a strength of ours, you know.

1420
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 16: And then the guys that stepped in.

1421
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,480
Speaker 24: Kareem really ran hard, uh the last two games, is

1422
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 24: really proud of the way he's running the ball. And

1423
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 24: then Pierre comes in and he hits a couple of

1424
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:52,640
Speaker 24: big ones in that two minute drive. You know, Jerome

1425
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 24: the same thing there. So you know, it's a little

1426
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 24: bit by committee right now, but that's fine. We've got

1427
01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 24: three backs right now. We'll get your run back with

1428
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:02,920
Speaker 24: some guys up you know, this week. But I think

1429
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 24: it's a little bit of everything. We run the ball well,

1430
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 24: you know. I think it's well.

1431
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,440
Speaker 16: Coached here through scheme and technique, you know, and our

1432
01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:09,000
Speaker 16: guys buy in.

1433
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 9: Are there are there.

1434
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:12,240
Speaker 17: Many guys you'd rather give the ball to on fourth

1435
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 17: and one than.

1436
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:15,440
Speaker 24: Kurreem Hunt Not in that situation, absolutely not. You know,

1437
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 24: that was a that was a kind of a situation

1438
01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 24: where we knew that was going to be a call

1439
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 24: on the fourth down. We were trying to score before that,

1440
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 24: but we knew, if you know, all us failed, We're

1441
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 24: going to run one of our signature plays.

1442
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 2: Is it tough sit them there?

1443
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:28,840
Speaker 22: Just kind of like, you know, you can get it

1444
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 22: in if you run the ball, but kind of waiting

1445
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 22: and then.

1446
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:33,000
Speaker 24: Hold on to that. Yeah, you know, I thought I

1447
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 24: thought KEB did a great job. They got the ball

1448
01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:36,360
Speaker 24: back with fifteen seconds. You know, if we just scored

1449
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 24: on first down in a pass play or you know,

1450
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 24: something would have happened there, we would get more time.

1451
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:41,919
Speaker 24: So we felt good about how we ended that drive

1452
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 24: with as less amount of time on the clock as

1453
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:44,360
Speaker 24: we could.

1454
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 6: Where are you when Mark Cooper doesn't get a target

1455
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:49,120
Speaker 6: for I don't know it's a whole half, but there's

1456
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:50,680
Speaker 6: a lot of that. First at the least, and then

1457
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 6: it half times you said, okay, let's get it. Let's

1458
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:54,560
Speaker 6: make sure we try to get the ball.

1459
01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1460
01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 24: Absolutely not something that I think KEB does a great

1461
01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:58,680
Speaker 24: job of that. During the course of the game, who's

1462
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:00,520
Speaker 24: touched the ball? Who do we need to get touches to?

1463
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 24: Who do we need to get going? Sometimes Dave will

1464
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 24: be a guy will say, let's let's see if we

1465
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:05,440
Speaker 24: can get Dave going, Let's see if we can get

1466
01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,720
Speaker 24: a Mario ball. Those are our leaders. So when those

1467
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:09,800
Speaker 24: guys touch the ball, good things generally happen. But it's

1468
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 24: definitely something that's on the back.

1469
01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:15,640
Speaker 16: Of coaches mine when you look at this what challenges.

1470
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,680
Speaker 24: Yeah, man, guy's been around forever, just torturing me for

1471
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:23,360
Speaker 24: years now. Played a lot of Seattle. Really instinctive, really

1472
01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 24: smart linebacker. Just understands exactly the fits and the blocking schemes.

1473
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 24: And he's slippery inside the box he plays, uh you

1474
01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:31,720
Speaker 24: know that that Mike blindbacker spot.

1475
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,600
Speaker 16: Just he's uncanning. He knows what's runs are coming.

1476
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:35,200
Speaker 9: Uh.

1477
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,000
Speaker 24: I mean, he's a good guy in the pressure game

1478
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 24: as well. They like to bring him a lot on pressure.

1479
01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 24: So just a solid veteran that's that's tough to He's

1480
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 24: seen a lot of football on his day, and it

1481
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 24: seems like the game slows down for him.

1482
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,080
Speaker 16: Three opponents have.

1483
01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:51,600
Speaker 14: Not had two hundred and fifty yards of offense against them.

1484
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:53,560
Speaker 14: You know, they seem to be playing well.

1485
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:55,600
Speaker 2: What's unique about the way.

1486
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 9: They defend that is challenging.

1487
01:02:57,560 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 24: You know, it's sart of that Seattle scheme a little

1488
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,120
Speaker 24: bit much like last week, you know, with Gus Bradley

1489
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 24: in Indianapolis, a lot of three deep zone kind of vision.

1490
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 24: Defense do a great job at keeping all eyes on

1491
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 24: the quarterback, and they squeeze and funnel everything from outside in.

1492
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 24: I think getting Adam's back helps him, gives him a

1493
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:17,040
Speaker 24: big presence down in the box. You know he's a

1494
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:21,120
Speaker 24: physical player, but you know that the defense is playing

1495
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 24: at a high level and has been for the last

1496
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 24: three weeks. Big challenge for us to go out on

1497
01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 24: the road and face these guys.

1498
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,400
Speaker 1: Jim Schwartz wrapped up the day at the podium are

1499
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 1: always entertaining. Defensive coordinator talked about how special Miles Gearrett

1500
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,840
Speaker 1: was on Sunday and he gave us his thoughts on

1501
01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 1: the overall play of the defense.

1502
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 9: Smith, I see a veteran player that's sort of survive

1503
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 9: some of the bumps of an early of some early setbacks.

1504
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,920
Speaker 9: I think he's an inspiration to a lot of players

1505
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:55,400
Speaker 9: that don't have immediate success. But his stick to itiveness,

1506
01:03:55,640 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 9: his ability to keep working, persevere and obviously improve have

1507
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:05,120
Speaker 9: shown these last couple of years. He remember having a

1508
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:07,800
Speaker 9: conversation with him after a game he was playing with

1509
01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 9: the Jets and he was back up and hadn't played,

1510
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 9: and you know, I told him, I said, you know, look,

1511
01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 9: eventually you're gonna get another chance, you know, make sure

1512
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 9: you're ready for it. And because I have played him

1513
01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:22,480
Speaker 9: a couple of times early in his career and he

1514
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,440
Speaker 9: certainly has, we're gonna have our work cut out for him.

1515
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 9: He's throwing the ball very well, he's really efficient, very

1516
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:33,280
Speaker 9: accurate with his past, his high high completion percentage, and

1517
01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 9: you know, I think that he's really, you know, a

1518
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:41,280
Speaker 9: good a good role model, a good inspiration for a

1519
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 9: lot of players that that may have struggled early in

1520
01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:47,240
Speaker 9: their career and if they if they stay on track

1521
01:04:47,320 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 9: and keep improving, that they can eventually have success.

1522
01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:54,000
Speaker 3: I think you didn't do as well against the coach

1523
01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 3: as you guys have done well the person.

1524
01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 18: Whatever.

1525
01:04:56,520 --> 01:05:00,040
Speaker 9: Yeah, well pretty much everything we were we we we

1526
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 9: didn't stop the run very well. We couldn't control the

1527
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 9: first and second down sticks, and mainly it was because

1528
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:08,560
Speaker 9: of run. We weren't as firm as we need to

1529
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:13,440
Speaker 9: be on the inside, missed some tackles, gave up some

1530
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,880
Speaker 9: big plays. We were pouring the red zone, which continues

1531
01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:19,560
Speaker 9: really to be a thing. I'm really disappointed in our

1532
01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:22,280
Speaker 9: red zone. I thought we'd be further along in our package,

1533
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 9: and I know it's new and we didn't get a

1534
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,920
Speaker 9: lot of time on task early in the season, but

1535
01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 9: you know, we need to have urgency to be better

1536
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:33,440
Speaker 9: in the red zone. That game's a lot different if

1537
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,400
Speaker 9: we can hold some field goals right there. But you know,

1538
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:38,840
Speaker 9: we're a good third down team too, but in that game,

1539
01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 9: we weren't about The only thing that we were good

1540
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:46,240
Speaker 9: in was what we had sort of struggled the first

1541
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 9: part of the season, which was getting turnovers, and that

1542
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 9: was really the difference in the game. I was also

1543
01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:53,480
Speaker 9: proud of the players the way I mean it seemed

1544
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 9: like every time we put a fire out, a new

1545
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 9: one sort of popped up. And you know, sometimes you

1546
01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:00,080
Speaker 9: don't have your fastball and you got a scrap and

1547
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,960
Speaker 9: and and grind. And that was a grind for the guys.

1548
01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,040
Speaker 9: But you know, they stayed, they kept their head in

1549
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:10,400
Speaker 9: the game, they kept playing, and uh, you know, as

1550
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 9: much as anything, we were able to come up with

1551
01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:14,400
Speaker 9: that fourth with a four minute stop at the end

1552
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:16,920
Speaker 9: of the game, which put our offense in in a

1553
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 9: position to go win it. And then we were able

1554
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:23,480
Speaker 9: to seal the game with the with the sack force fumbles.

1555
01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 9: So a lot of stuff that certainly wasn't up the

1556
01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,560
Speaker 9: character for us, and stuff that we need to do

1557
01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:33,720
Speaker 9: better and improve. But you know, we did make plays

1558
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,439
Speaker 9: in the game, and that sort of I don't wanna

1559
01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:38,520
Speaker 9: say counted it because you want to play good football,

1560
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,240
Speaker 9: but you know it made up for the fact that

1561
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 9: we didn't have our fastball and we weren't playing good.

1562
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:45,760
Speaker 9: You know, it's sort of you know baseball, I no

1563
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,720
Speaker 9: World Series is coming up, but you know you got

1564
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 9: a hit her that you know, strikes out three times

1565
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:52,680
Speaker 9: in a row and then hits a it's a home

1566
01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 9: run in the bottom of the eighth. You know, it's

1567
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:57,080
Speaker 9: a three run homer. That was sort of the way

1568
01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,720
Speaker 9: we played football. You know, we want to we want

1569
01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 9: to have more contact than that. We want to put

1570
01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:02,320
Speaker 9: the ball in play.

1571
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 6: He was r POS surprise.

1572
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:08,400
Speaker 9: How oh no, I mean they stayed pretty much like

1573
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 9: the the RPO game. That actual throws on the RPOs

1574
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 9: was really only one and we just need a bigger

1575
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,880
Speaker 9: contact on that one. But to scramble if that's what

1576
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:23,560
Speaker 9: you're talking about. His yeah, his more keeping the ball. Yeah, no,

1577
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 9: I mean he had he had done it in all

1578
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 9: their games, and Richardson had done it. You know, I

1579
01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:29,840
Speaker 9: think there were some of those games when he came

1580
01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:32,800
Speaker 9: in after Richardson was hurt that they were shying away

1581
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:35,840
Speaker 9: or not doing those things. But certainly prepare for. We

1582
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 9: were prepared for. We just didn't execute very well, you know.

1583
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,600
Speaker 9: We we we missed a lot of tackles on the

1584
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,680
Speaker 9: quarterback and weren't in a really good position, you know.

1585
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:47,760
Speaker 9: So I think that was probably the biggest.

1586
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:52,440
Speaker 12: Thing to Brant Miles's first half in terms of other

1587
01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:55,520
Speaker 12: amazing performances that you've seen over the years.

1588
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 11: Can kind of put it in some.

1589
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,920
Speaker 9: Kind of context, Well, I have to stay in character there,

1590
01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 9: four and two. I mean, right, I mean, if if

1591
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 9: we're gonna if we're gonna say three and two when

1592
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,760
Speaker 9: it comes to somebody's performance, but yeah, let's be for real.

1593
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:14,280
Speaker 9: That was That was a performance for the Ages. You know,

1594
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:17,680
Speaker 9: the two sacks and two strips, both of them, you know,

1595
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:19,960
Speaker 9: one we scored on defense, the other one the offense

1596
01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 9: scored off of blocked kick and amazing blocked kick. You

1597
01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:28,360
Speaker 9: know about eight tackles, I mean, eight tackles is hard

1598
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,960
Speaker 9: for a defensive end to make. And you know, maybe

1599
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:32,960
Speaker 9: one other thing that sort of flies a little bit

1600
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:36,200
Speaker 9: below the radar. We lost Alex early in that game,

1601
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 9: and Obo was was struggling with his ribs and you know,

1602
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,000
Speaker 9: sort of hats off to Obo because he was he

1603
01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:45,400
Speaker 9: was he was playing on half a body, but he

1604
01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 9: was you know, he was trying to keep going out

1605
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,880
Speaker 9: there and tough it out for us. But Miles played

1606
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,600
Speaker 9: just about every play in the second half and was

1607
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 9: still able to come up with plays like that, And

1608
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:59,280
Speaker 9: that's just another tribute to him as a player. I mean,

1609
01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:01,920
Speaker 9: it's not idea. We don't really you know, want to

1610
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,000
Speaker 9: go there with playing every single snap, and I think

1611
01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 9: that you know, over the course of the season, over

1612
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 9: the course of games, that's not a great strategy, but

1613
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:13,400
Speaker 9: when you need to, he certainly proved that he could.

1614
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:19,840
Speaker 9: And yeah, that was that was That was a great

1615
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:22,960
Speaker 9: individual performance. We had some others, you know, I thought

1616
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,840
Speaker 9: that I thought Jordan Elliott might have played his best

1617
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:29,400
Speaker 9: game that we've seen him play. He's really really improved

1618
01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:33,960
Speaker 9: for us. He's he's he's starting to master the technique

1619
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,840
Speaker 9: of attack. He's a big man. Saw him get a sack,

1620
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:40,040
Speaker 9: but you know, not just a sack, but his presence

1621
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:43,080
Speaker 9: in the inside run game has really really improved. So

1622
01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 9: you know, yeah, foreign tooken wager, but.

1623
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:53,040
Speaker 10: What makes him is he similar to other bats you faced?

1624
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:55,000
Speaker 9: Or what makes him successful?

1625
01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:55,280
Speaker 7: Yeah?

1626
01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 9: You know, you just put the tape on and it's impressive,

1627
01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:01,080
Speaker 9: you know. And his number, you know, like if you

1628
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:04,640
Speaker 9: just judge him on his on his stats, you know,

1629
01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:06,640
Speaker 9: four point one yards to carry him. I don't know

1630
01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 9: where that ranks in the league, but it's probably not like,

1631
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:11,920
Speaker 9: you know, top ten. But you put his film on

1632
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:15,080
Speaker 9: and it gets your attention right away. The broken tackles,

1633
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 9: he's really hard to bring down. He's got quickness and

1634
01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:22,439
Speaker 9: he has power, and he can threaten all the edges

1635
01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:24,640
Speaker 9: of your defense. You know, just because you have him

1636
01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 9: hemmed up doesn't mean he's you know that that you've

1637
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:29,800
Speaker 9: got him completely battled in. He can go all the

1638
01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:32,559
Speaker 9: way out the back door. He's really good at setting

1639
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 9: his blocks up. He's really an outstanding young player. And

1640
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:41,680
Speaker 9: you know, some of our some of our things that

1641
01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:44,840
Speaker 9: we struggled with against the Colts, particularly the inside run

1642
01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:48,000
Speaker 9: game and allowing them to control the game with the run,

1643
01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 9: and when we played well on defense, particularly Titans and

1644
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:56,240
Speaker 9: forty nine ers. After that first drive against the forty

1645
01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:59,439
Speaker 9: nine ers. We were able to control the second down game,

1646
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:01,519
Speaker 9: so he would gonna have a work cut out for

1647
01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:06,720
Speaker 9: him or work cut out for us. But yeah, he's

1648
01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:09,160
Speaker 9: he's an exciting young player. I didn't really know him

1649
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:12,000
Speaker 9: a ton from last year because you know, Dad hadn't

1650
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:14,240
Speaker 9: seen him and didn't really cross over very much with

1651
01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:17,240
Speaker 9: those guys. But he gets your attention really quick, and

1652
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:19,559
Speaker 9: you know he's he's a good young player.

1653
01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:25,040
Speaker 6: The RPOs are relatively new to the NFL ten years.

1654
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:29,040
Speaker 14: Or whatever, and with your defensive style just attack and

1655
01:11:29,160 --> 01:11:30,800
Speaker 14: going forward, it seemed.

1656
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:35,000
Speaker 9: To be the play to run at your defense. Do

1657
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:37,040
Speaker 9: you do you find it frustrating to.

1658
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:38,360
Speaker 5: Defend that with your system?

1659
01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:40,760
Speaker 9: No, I mean it's just life in the NFL now.

1660
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 9: It spreads you thinner with with gaps because you have

1661
01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:49,800
Speaker 9: to count for an extra gap with the quarterback, you know.

1662
01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:53,160
Speaker 9: So I don't think it's anything that's you know, necessarily

1663
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:57,800
Speaker 9: frustrating or anything else. I mean, it's something that's fairly common.

1664
01:11:57,840 --> 01:11:59,679
Speaker 9: It used to be you didn't see it very often,

1665
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 9: but now you see it more. And it's not just

1666
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 9: like Tonny when when we when we talk about r

1667
01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 9: p O, it's the run pass option and a lot

1668
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,720
Speaker 9: of r PO is they have a run called and

1669
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 9: they're throwing the ball off of it. They're reading a

1670
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,479
Speaker 9: particular player and they're ripping the ball in and getting

1671
01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:19,200
Speaker 9: the ball out quick. You know, think Eagles in the

1672
01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:23,560
Speaker 9: Super Bowl run with Nick Foles, but you had the

1673
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:27,439
Speaker 9: the extra layer of quarterback run. You know, that's that's

1674
01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:32,320
Speaker 9: a that's probably i'd say the the the the the

1675
01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:36,000
Speaker 9: run option, not the run pass option, but the run

1676
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:39,840
Speaker 9: run option creates an extra gap. And you know, we

1677
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:41,960
Speaker 9: have ways to handle on this game. We haven't executed

1678
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,639
Speaker 9: them very well so far this year, and it's certainly

1679
01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:45,760
Speaker 9: something we need to improve on.

1680
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:47,320
Speaker 2: Play something that.

1681
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,439
Speaker 9: And you know we've we've talked about it in the past,

1682
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:57,799
Speaker 9: and you know we've we've had a couple of plays

1683
01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:00,120
Speaker 9: this year early in the game against San fran and

1684
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,799
Speaker 9: these two plays where you know, we jump off sides

1685
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,040
Speaker 9: and then we don't finish to play, whether it's in

1686
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,680
Speaker 9: the back end or up front. And you know, like

1687
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:13,519
Speaker 9: our message is like we don't we don't necessarily need

1688
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:17,000
Speaker 9: to try to get back, you know, like just go

1689
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 9: shut the play down, you know, just keep on going

1690
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:23,080
Speaker 9: and shut the play down so that we don't succept

1691
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 9: or we don't. We don't put our corners in that

1692
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 9: position to have to go play those balls where the

1693
01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:35,000
Speaker 9: offense has license. So you know, we're a get off team,

1694
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:37,920
Speaker 9: we're an attack team. There's a bit of cost to

1695
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:40,519
Speaker 9: doing business with that. With off side. We don't want

1696
01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:43,360
Speaker 9: to be all sides in critical situations like backed up

1697
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 9: or third down and short or two minutes and things

1698
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:49,640
Speaker 9: like that. But there's gonna be sometimes where we're going

1699
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:52,760
Speaker 9: to be all sides, but we can't allow them to

1700
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:54,800
Speaker 9: turn that. They need to be five yard plays, not

1701
01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,760
Speaker 9: you know, fifty five or eighty yard plays or you

1702
01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,400
Speaker 9: know whatever whatever we've given up. But that's definitely something

1703
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:04,840
Speaker 9: that's on our radar and and something that we need

1704
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:07,720
Speaker 9: to address and improve. We already have addressed it, but

1705
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:09,599
Speaker 9: we need to We need to do it on the field.

1706
01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:12,679
Speaker 9: The first step is don't be offside. The second step

1707
01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:15,479
Speaker 9: is either shut the play down or do a better

1708
01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,400
Speaker 9: job of finishing to play. And you know, a lot

1709
01:14:18,439 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 9: of times you're dealing against human nature, you know, like

1710
01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:25,120
Speaker 9: just a natural reaction. Your natural reaction is try to

1711
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:29,439
Speaker 9: get back or to sort of you know, and we

1712
01:14:29,560 --> 01:14:30,400
Speaker 9: need to do that better.

1713
01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:34,680
Speaker 22: My Smiles said that he thought maybe the center was

1714
01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 22: doing something with the ball that made him jump. Did

1715
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:39,240
Speaker 22: you notice anything doing anything different.

1716
01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean everybody's going to try to do stuff

1717
01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:43,560
Speaker 9: like that. You know, they're going to try to do

1718
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,200
Speaker 9: whatever they can to gain an advantage. They know we're

1719
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:48,400
Speaker 9: a good pass rush team. They know they have players

1720
01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 9: like Miles out there, and they're going to try to

1721
01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:54,120
Speaker 9: negate that. And whether it's hard cadence, whether it's a

1722
01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:56,880
Speaker 9: little bit of movement or you know, stuff like that.

1723
01:14:57,040 --> 01:15:00,400
Speaker 9: Sometimes I think offenses can put themselves in a little trouble,

1724
01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 9: but we put it on tape, so we put it

1725
01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:04,080
Speaker 9: on tape, so we're gonna have to deal with it.

1726
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:07,440
Speaker 9: And you know, people think they can gain an advantage,

1727
01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,840
Speaker 9: then you know they're going to keep on trying. If

1728
01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,040
Speaker 9: you know, if we go a good stretch without an

1729
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:16,439
Speaker 9: effecting US, I think we'll see offenses do it a

1730
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:17,080
Speaker 9: little bit less.

1731
01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:17,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1732
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 14: An interesting roster makeup, and you know they've got some

1733
01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:23,120
Speaker 14: really better guys like Geo at Bobby Bet and.

1734
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:25,880
Speaker 6: Playing tough football. They also have more rookies.

1735
01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:27,800
Speaker 9: Under fifty three than anybody else in the league.

1736
01:15:28,120 --> 01:15:31,920
Speaker 14: From a game planning perspective, do you approach things differently

1737
01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:35,600
Speaker 14: when you're playing against the team that hasn't seen anything.

1738
01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:36,839
Speaker 2: Because there's a little less experience.

1739
01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:38,280
Speaker 19: There is that fact, you all.

1740
01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:41,160
Speaker 9: You know, sometimes when it's a quarterback, sometimes when it's

1741
01:15:41,160 --> 01:15:43,559
Speaker 9: an offensive line. You know, I think that I think

1742
01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:47,120
Speaker 9: that does come into the equation when it's skilled players,

1743
01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:49,960
Speaker 9: when it's tight ends or wide receivers. I don't know

1744
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:53,439
Speaker 9: that it comes up quite as much, you know. But

1745
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:55,720
Speaker 9: they also have even though they have a lot of

1746
01:15:55,800 --> 01:16:00,800
Speaker 9: rookies out there, they've third year in this offensive coordinator. Yeah,

1747
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:05,160
Speaker 9: third year in Shane's offense. So they have a lot

1748
01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:07,519
Speaker 9: of time on task with their other players. And you know,

1749
01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:09,400
Speaker 9: even though they have a lot of young players, they

1750
01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:11,720
Speaker 9: can get those guys. So, you know, I think that

1751
01:16:11,960 --> 01:16:14,759
Speaker 9: if if those players were concentrated in a certain position,

1752
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:17,960
Speaker 9: maybe there be something there. We just need to worry

1753
01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:22,120
Speaker 9: about ourselves. We need to execute ourselves. Execute ourselves.

1754
01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:22,400
Speaker 13: That's on.

1755
01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:27,640
Speaker 9: We need to execute. We need to execute well ourselves.

1756
01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 9: How some of you English may just got to clean

1757
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:33,800
Speaker 9: that up for me. Yeah, I don't know, but we

1758
01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 9: have to do a better job of executing and worry

1759
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:37,840
Speaker 9: about ourselves.
