WEBVTT - Press Pass: Sam Bradford

0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:08.880
<v Speaker 1>You've had a few days now since the game you've

0:00:08.880 --> 0:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>watched us were watching. It looked like you had a

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:15.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of time there. But how did you feel like

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:18.799
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing where and you're you're preceptive any different

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 1>they were Sunday? And how the passing game were? Uh No,

0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:25.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean I think it's kind of like I said,

0:00:25.280 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I think, you know, miss some opportunities. Um, you know,

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I think they covered us a few times, and you know,

0:00:31.720 --> 0:00:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I think, uh, you know, there were obviously some places

0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:35.720
<v Speaker 1>that we left on the field, and you know, we'd

0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:38.960
<v Speaker 1>like to have a few of us back. Yes, the

0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 1>consistency really hasn't been there. Um, you had one good

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:45.200
<v Speaker 1>half as an offense in Atlanta and the big first

0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 1>half Sunday. Um, how frustrating. It's just that you guys

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:49.760
<v Speaker 1>have to be able to put together six You do

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:52.720
<v Speaker 1>admit it. So yeah, you know, obviously it's really frustrated.

0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's our goal, you know every week is

0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:56.760
<v Speaker 1>to come out and play four quarters. Um, you know,

0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 1>to our ability. Uh, like you said, I feel like

0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 1>we have done that yet. You know, we've shown that

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:04.080
<v Speaker 1>we're capable of it. You know, we just haven't been

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:07.679
<v Speaker 1>able to put together four quarters. Um, I think obviously

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 1>there's some things that we can build on. There's things

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>that you know, we did do well, and uh, you

0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>know that's our goal this weeks to come out build

0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:19.280
<v Speaker 1>on those things, uh and play four quarters to not

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>playing for a while. The need the new offense supers

0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:25.479
<v Speaker 1>dropping balls all of the above. How do you put

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>your finger on the UM, Yeah, I'm not sure. To

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:31.200
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I think if I knew that, it'd already

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>be corrected. You know, I think, you know, you just

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:34.880
<v Speaker 1>look at the tape from the past a couple of weeks.

0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I just feel like, um, you know, there's small mistakes

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 1>all over the place, and you know, we've got to

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 1>do a better job as an offense and being more consistent.

0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, it takes eleven guys to be successful. Um.

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, unfortunately, there just haven't been enough times where

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>we've all been doing the right thing. The numbers have

0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:58.360
<v Speaker 1>been skewed with the perceiving targets on the inside of

0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.640
<v Speaker 1>the people letter. It's mad. Why larger receivers on the

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:06.559
<v Speaker 1>outside as involved, at least statistically. Um, it's a good question.

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, you know, maybe it's the way that

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>we've been calling the game. Maybe it's the way that

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>the defense has been playing us. You know, obviously we

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 1>feel really good with the matchups that we have inside

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.880
<v Speaker 1>obviously with Earth's and Jordan and Sprowls, and we feel

0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:20.720
<v Speaker 1>anytime we can get those guys matched up inside, um,

0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, whether it be a safety of back or nickel,

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:26.639
<v Speaker 1>that those are usually matchups that we like, as far

0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:28.959
<v Speaker 1>as the receivers doesn't serve. You know, a couple of

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:30.800
<v Speaker 1>them were saying the other day they feel like drawing

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:33.799
<v Speaker 1>the costs of breaking out the sof I mean, what

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.680
<v Speaker 1>have you've seen of them? I mean, do think it's

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:40.160
<v Speaker 1>pretty close to click? Uh? Yeah, you know, I think

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 1>if you look at the tape, you know, they're having

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.720
<v Speaker 1>drives or spurts where you know, things have come together.

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:47.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, we've played the way that we wanted to play. Um.

0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:49.079
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't think it's a long ways off,

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:51.200
<v Speaker 1>you know. I think it's you know, a small correction

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:53.079
<v Speaker 1>here or there, and I think that once we get

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 1>in rhythm and get in sync, you know, hopefully this

0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>thing can take off. Because I think it's close to

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:04.639
<v Speaker 1>game obviously the second half, which was very successful to

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:09.359
<v Speaker 1>what you've done. After that. What is the difference of

0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 1>what you've done. Um, yeah, I think obviously in the

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta game we were just really efficient. Um, you know,

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.679
<v Speaker 1>first and taken down, we were great. Um, you know,

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>keeping ourselves ahead of the change. We converted when we

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>had to. You, I think a big thing in the

0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 1>past two games is, you know, we haven't converted on

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 1>third down, and you don't keep yourself on the field,

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to get in the rhythm. You know. We've

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 1>got to do a better job about converting third down

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.760
<v Speaker 1>so we can get into that rhythm. Jordan passes, the

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:37.240
<v Speaker 1>passes that had a biggest caught some drops maybe some

0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen any kind of common thread with all

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>of those besides being dropped? Brow is it? You know

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>what I mean? Without it, there's like double vidiots. Um,

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know. I really haven't looked at

0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 1>it that close. Um. You know, hopefully, like I said,

0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 1>those are all out of the way and hopefully, uh,

0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're just getting those out of our system. Jordan,

0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.720
<v Speaker 1>is the reception we target someone just the wide receivers.

0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to see just more balance with you know,

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>who's gonna catch the ball? I'm on the wide receivers.

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I know you have matchups with running backs that you

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>like to exploit. I mean, obviously it'd be great to

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>have balance, you know. I think, you know, when you

0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:14.800
<v Speaker 1>can spread the ball around and get everyone involved, it

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:16.839
<v Speaker 1>makes it a lot tougher on a defense to game

0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:19.240
<v Speaker 1>playing you as opposed to you know, when you're really

0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>concentrating on hidden you know, one or two guys the

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 1>balled and they can double. You know, if we can

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 1>spread it around to everyone and keep it balanced, I

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.159
<v Speaker 1>think it's you know, it's our benefit. Um, you know,

0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:29.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what we're going to try to get to.

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:32.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, hopefully this week you'll see everyone get involved.

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Is the reason maybe that hasn't so far is just

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 1>because of what defenses are giving you, or do you

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>have to make more on your end, more of a

0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:44.360
<v Speaker 1>push to look Josh Love Riley, Whatever the case, I

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:46.360
<v Speaker 1>think it's probably a little bit of both. Having a

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.800
<v Speaker 1>week of practice coming off of win, has it changed

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 1>the mood in the locker room or on the practice

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 1>field at them? Yeah, obviously anytime you win, it's much better,

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.159
<v Speaker 1>you know. I think everyone's spirits are a little higher

0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 1>after win. It's just nice to kind of get that

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 1>monkey off our back to get that first win. You know,

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I think everyone feels great about, you know, going to

0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:07.799
<v Speaker 1>New York getting the win last week, and we're obviously

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:09.839
<v Speaker 1>looking to build on it out here on the practice

0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:13.600
<v Speaker 1>field this week. Just get back to slight. Just say,

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:16.320
<v Speaker 1>you want everybody's voll, but you also don't want to

0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:19.960
<v Speaker 1>force it when it's not there. To balance that out. Um,

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, I just gotta listen to the play call.

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:24.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, take what's there. You can't try to force anything,

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:27.039
<v Speaker 1>you know. I think when um, you know, you try

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>to force it to someone, and you know you make

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>an extra effort to get someone the football. Uh, sometimes

0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.720
<v Speaker 1>you run yourself into problems because you skip over progressions

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 1>trying to get back to you know, three or four

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:38.560
<v Speaker 1>to get someone a ball. So I think, you know,

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.479
<v Speaker 1>you've just got to stay disciplined in your reach. You know,

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:42.960
<v Speaker 1>the ball goes where it's supposed to go. Say what

0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:46.800
<v Speaker 1>do you think Nelson agil Are strengths are? Um? Yeah,

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:48.719
<v Speaker 1>I think he's a great route runner. I think he's

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:50.840
<v Speaker 1>got really good feet. He always seems to keep himself

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 1>in balance. Um, you know, some of the different routes

0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:56.640
<v Speaker 1>that we feel good with him. I mean, he runs

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.680
<v Speaker 1>about as good as anyone I've seen. I think he's

0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:01.680
<v Speaker 1>quick in short space, you know, but he can also

0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, can get it going when he has to

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>down the field. Same for three weeks, we really haven't

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.760
<v Speaker 1>seen the deep ball. Do you think that's going to change?

0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.559
<v Speaker 1>In any explanation for why for three weeks we haven't

0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:15.600
<v Speaker 1>seen more deep balls? Um, you know, I don't think

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>we've called a lot of deep balls. You know, hopefully

0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 1>that's something you know that we could get to. Um.

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:22.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think it just depends on kind of

0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.760
<v Speaker 1>what we see is our best matchups, what we see

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:27.560
<v Speaker 1>is favorable that week. Um. You know, if they presented

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:29.160
<v Speaker 1>to us this week, then you know we're going to

0:06:29.240 --> 0:06:34.239
<v Speaker 1>take advantage of it. They're a good defense, you know obviously,

0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 1>I think, uh, their second right now in total defense.

0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:40.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, their front is active. You know. It seems

0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 1>to me that they get their hands on a lot

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.800
<v Speaker 1>of balls, um, you know, fairly similar to Atlanta, and

0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 1>that their scheme isn't really complex. But what they do

0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:52.600
<v Speaker 1>they seem to be really good at. Even without the

0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:58.039
<v Speaker 1>deep balls, they're sat that on average passes, they're shortage

0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.480
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL back cheerity A darning it all first

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.560
<v Speaker 1>of ball field and thinking of all, um, what do

0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:07.800
<v Speaker 1>you a period? Um? I mean, I think a lot

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 1>of it is just the way that we're trying to

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>attack defenses right now. Um, you know, the ball goes

0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 1>where it's supposed to go. UM. I don't think if

0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.360
<v Speaker 1>there's anything that you know, it's not like we're just

0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 1>trying to throw flats. It's just to me, that's what

0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:23.560
<v Speaker 1>it's been you know, that's where the ball has been going.

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:25.440
<v Speaker 1>That's what we've been calling and that's what's been given

0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>to us. Obviously, want them move on. Everybody legal wants

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:34.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe waters that had to envision in the last few

0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:39.680
<v Speaker 1>games through Um, it's a good question. Um, you know,

0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:41.280
<v Speaker 1>probably all of them. You know, like I said, it'd

0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 1>be nice to get the deep ball going. It'd be

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:44.880
<v Speaker 1>nice to be able to push the ball down the field. UM.

0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, hopefully that's something that we can get to

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:49.840
<v Speaker 1>this week. Sam. In the no puddle and the hurry

0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 1>up offense, is it more difficult to read and react

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>to the opposing defense as as compared to the offenses

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:59.160
<v Speaker 1>that you've left before. Um, I think it's about the same,

0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 1>to be honest. You know, I think one of the

0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:03.440
<v Speaker 1>benefits of the no huddle is, uh, you know, the defense,

0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.240
<v Speaker 1>they don't have time to get in you know, a

0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 1>huddle themselves, and so they've got to get lined up.

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Especially when we present a tempo play and we're going fast,

0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:12.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, it seems that they have to show their

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.760
<v Speaker 1>hand a little bit quicker than if you're playing you know,

0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:19.120
<v Speaker 1>a normal style offense. Right, thank you.
