1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Good morning, Bill. I wanted to ask you about a

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: gesture after the game that Tom Brady said this morning

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: he really appreciated, and that was getting the ball game ball.

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 1: And obviously there were a couple of historic milestones that

5
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: Tom achieved on Thursday night. What went into the decision

6
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: if you care to share about giving Tom the game

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: ball that night? You know, well, I mean Tom breaks

8
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: a record every week, so you know, we could we

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: could really probably give a game ball, you know, after

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: every game, but I think this one's yeah. I mean,

11
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: what he's accomplished in terms of total career passing yards

12
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: pretty pretty noteworthy. So and I thought he played well

13
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 1: in a game. You know, we offensively had to kind

14
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 1: of keep it together here with um, you know, some

15
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: limitations in the second half. I thought I showed a

16
00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:00,040
Speaker 1: lot of leadership and toughness and this passing ability and

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:05,199
Speaker 1: accuracy that helped us win the game and affected follow

18
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: up builds. That's something about Tom's game over twenty years

19
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: that you've come to appreciate that for the most part,

20
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: he lets the game come to him, and he picks

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: his spots and doesn't try to force it for the

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: most part. If you know, the points aren't coming Um.

23
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 1: Julian Elman's kind of said that after the game as well,

24
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: that the offense with Tom Um never panics given the

25
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: game situation. Definitely. You know, Tom's got great poison on

26
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 1: the field, and he's been in a lot of a

27
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: lot of critical situations with you know, various elements ahead

28
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: behind whether um so forth, and and he's on the

29
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: road at home and you name it. He's been in

30
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: pretty much every situation you could be in, and so

31
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: his experience and decision making, we have a total trust

32
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: in him and all those situations and you know he's

33
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: come through for so many times before. Thank you, Bill,

34
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: You alto next question Mike Piority, followed by Mike Preas

35
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: Morning Bill. I'm curious what sort of what sort of

36
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: role does Tom have to play in the development of

37
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: the younger receivers, what kind of role backing receivers need

38
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 1: to need to work on their time in execution and recognition.

39
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: I mean, they need to see the same thing from

40
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: two different vantage points. And that's that's really what what

41
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 1: it comes down to is the quarterback needs to be

42
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: able to see what a receiver sees, and the receiver

43
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: needs to see what a quarterback season and be able

44
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: to make the right decisions on different routes against different

45
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: leverage and coverage, and the same thing that linemen have

46
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: to be able to see. Although they're a little bit

47
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: closer together on that, but they still have to be

48
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: able to see the same thing when five guys are

49
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: blocking five guys to get the right five on the

50
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: five n handle whatever stunts or twists or however the

51
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: the play on folds after the snap. So that's I mean,

52
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: that's what execution is. If I made it fall up

53
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: on that because he's been in the system for so

54
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: long and in the league for so long. Is it

55
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: more though, for someone like Gunner or Jacobe to figure

56
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: out a way to get on his page versus him

57
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: trying to get on their page. Well we have to

58
00:03:50,840 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: see it together. Okay, thank you, Next question Mike Quis

59
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: and I would encourage anybody up get five story that

60
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: wants to ask the question. All right, thanks Stacy um Bill.

61
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: We're at the six week mark since nikkil Harry went

62
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: on I are so, I guess the opportunity is there

63
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: this week possibly start him practicing. Do you guys plan

64
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: to do that with him this week? If he's ready, yes, Okay,

65
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: and how I know it's hard to know. I mean,

66
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's how is he doing? I

67
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: mean in terms of progressing, we'll hope, we hope he'll

68
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: be ready to go. Yeah, And it's a little bit

69
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: of a different topic. But October twenty ninth, so you

70
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: get the trade deadline, it's a couple of weeks away.

71
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, like at this time on the calendar,

72
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: how Nick might describe, like the activity that he's having

73
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: in terms of discussions with other teams two weeks out

74
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: as it relates to that, like how how how is

75
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: that at this time or is it more of one

76
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: of those things where there's an upticking conversation as that

77
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: date gets closer, Probably a better question for Nick. I mean,

78
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. When something comes up it's important that

79
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: we need to talk about, we talk about it. And

80
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure each year is different, Sure every

81
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: situation is different. And not like we meet every five

82
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: minutes and say what happened in the last five minutes.

83
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: That's just not the way it works. Okay, next question,

84
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 1: Doug Kyrie that is called by Jimmy Bright. Well, good morning, Uh,

85
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: what do you know, it's from Terrence Brooks. So far

86
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: this season on the defensive side of the ball, it

87
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: seems like he's getting more opportunities this year than he

88
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: has the last four or five years. You know, I

89
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: think that's one of the things that UM, that I

90
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: talked about with him, UM when we visited him and

91
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: signed him, that you know, we use a lot of

92
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 1: different defensive packages and you know, our our players played,

93
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: all players played, and as you said, that's something that

94
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: he hasn't really had a lot of chance to do

95
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,679
Speaker 1: in his career. So he's really embraced it. He's taken

96
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: on a number of different roles and it's worked very

97
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: hard to understand those. We have definite different multiples in

98
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: our defense, and UM, between the multiples of the defense

99
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: and different positions, it can you know, the wheel can

100
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: start spinning there a little bit, especially for somebody who

101
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: hasn't been in this system for multiple years like you

102
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 1: know Devin and Pat and Duran have so but he's

103
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: done very well with it, and I was given us

104
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of solid play there, um

105
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: as part of different packages in rotation, but also UM,

106
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: you know for Pat, so he's he's done a nice

107
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: job for us and and continues to contribute to the

108
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: kicking game. So he's been a very table addition for

109
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: us this year. Thankful. Yeah, you're welcome, Escuestion Jim mc

110
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: bride Paul ters Holt, all right, morning, coach. I know

111
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: most of the preparation and planning comes from the coaches film,

112
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: but I'm wondering if you've got a chance to watch

113
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: the Cowboys Jets game yesterday and we're able to take

114
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: anything out of that, considering they're both on your upcoming schedule. Yeah,

115
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: I saw the old to the game, but I watched

116
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: it this morning again on the coacher's copy, which is, um,

117
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: you know, probably a little a little better for me.

118
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, certainly the Jets made made big, big plays

119
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: when they had to the fourth down stop and then

120
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: um the double move uh to Anderson, you know from

121
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: the ninety two yard touchdown and um then the two

122
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: point play. Um, you know we're able to pressure Prescott

123
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: on that on the throw with him and win the game.

124
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: So you know, they made a lot of big plays

125
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: when they had to. But their offense was very productive.

126
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: They had a lot of big plays in the passing game,

127
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: play action passes and um, you know, a lot of

128
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: chunk plays, a lot of thirty couple thirty yarders and

129
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: obviously the ninety two yarder. UM. But they were consistent

130
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: with the running game and you know Bell Bell banged

131
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: out some tough yards and that that set up some opportunities.

132
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: UM on play action and Darnald you know, clearly made

133
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of good throws and you

134
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: know he's a big, strong guy that's athletic in the pocket,

135
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: and they have a lot of confidence in him and

136
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 1: as they should. You know, he knows their system well

137
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:09,479
Speaker 1: and went well. UM. And they made made big plays defensively,

138
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: and it did a good job on a running game,

139
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: as they usually do. And it's an aggressive team that

140
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: pursues well and tackles well. So there was a solid

141
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: effort all the way around. Thank you, Yeah, you're welcome,

142
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: all right. Next question Chris Holtan followed by Michael track

143
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,599
Speaker 1: Hi Bill Um Jim sort of touched on what I

144
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you, but maybe just more specifically about

145
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold and just if you have an impression, you know,

146
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 1: the difference he makes for that team or just a

147
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: challenge he presents. UM. This time around when you see

148
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: the Jets. Yeah, three talented player, we know that. And

149
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,679
Speaker 1: Kennedy's big, He's strong, He's can make all the throws.

150
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 1: I'm short intermediate if he can extend plays with his legs.

151
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: He's also a strong player that's hard to bring down

152
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: in the pocket. He can shed tacklers and and stay

153
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: on his feet and throw the ball and still throw

154
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: it accurately. He's got showed good toughness um last year

155
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: and this year. Um No, going back to the to

156
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: the opener um against Buffalo and and then yesterday against Dallas.

157
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: It shows good toughness in the pocket. And he's a

158
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: quality player. UM sure, certainly makes a big difference having

159
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: him on the field for m It's no question about that.

160
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: Thank you, You're welcome. That's our two final questions. We'll

161
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: go Mike Protectia followed by field carry. Thanks Stacy Bill.

162
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: What have you seen from Ted Harris from week one

163
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: to week six in terms of his comfort at the position?

164
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: And just curious to see, um, there's a lot of

165
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: talk about the snaps and whatnot, and I'm just curious

166
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: to get your opinion on what kind of adjustments and

167
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: improvements he's made. From Wish one to Week six. Well

168
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: it Ted has been a very dependable player for us

169
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 1: for four years. And uh, you know, a couple of

170
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: years ago, UM, when David missed UM just a couple

171
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: of games, had stepped in there and played center's he's

172
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: played guard for us. He's you know, fortunately we've had

173
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:42,719
Speaker 1: prior to this year, we've had um Ted and and

174
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: David and I mean, I'm sorry, Shack, David and Joe

175
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: had been very durable. But this year, Um, you know,

176
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: with David's situations, had you know, had the opportunity to

177
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: play more, and he's stepped in and played consistently, like

178
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: like you really like he always has for us. So

179
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: we're very fortunate that we have him and have his

180
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: experience to the smart player. He's strong, he can anchor

181
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: in the middle of the pocket, and his communication with

182
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: his teammates on the offensive line, which is critical for

183
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: the center position to handle blocking schemes and protections and

184
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:27,599
Speaker 1: and so forth, has been good. And he's you know,

185
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: obviously grown with his each week with as you said,

186
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: the experience and the opportunity to continue to work together

187
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: with his teammates and the consistency and communication definitely improves

188
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: a little by a little bit. It's a new challenge

189
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: each week because each defense is different. Um, you know,

190
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: the place we run are a little bit different and

191
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 1: what they do is a little bit different. So it's

192
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: there's certainly continuity and carry over, but at the same time,

193
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: there's a a newness and a variety to each week

194
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,599
Speaker 1: which presents its own challenges, both on personnel matchups and

195
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 1: and scheme adjustments. So that's he's done a good job

196
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: for So thank you, You're welcome. And last question for

197
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: pat goal check fill pure Thanks stec Bill. I did

198
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: want to ask about the defense, but but first they

199
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: just wanted to follow up on some of the Nikila

200
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: Harry questions. He said, if he's ready, you're hoping he'll

201
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,599
Speaker 1: be able to practice. Is that readiness Is it a

202
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: physical readiness that you're looking for or is it right

203
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: more of a mental side? No, No, I mean mentally

204
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: he's he's been able to keep up with everything, you know,

205
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: just physically. If he's yeah, needs to be able to

206
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: to show that they can go out there and participate

207
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: competitively and at the practice level that we're at. Um

208
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: hopefully that's where it will be. But we'll make our

209
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: final valuetions on that before we put them out there. Great,

210
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: thank you, and and Um, I just kind of wanted

211
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 1: to ask you something based on something we heard from

212
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: from Devin mccordy recently, which was he felt as though

213
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: the defense kind of was able to to start from

214
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: ahead even back in the spring because you had so

215
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: many players back from from last year's team. UM, I

216
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: guess how how rare is that sort of carry over

217
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: in this day and age when there is so much

218
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: turnover a year or year on every NFL roster? Does

219
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: it feel like this group, you know, maybe is benefiting

220
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: from that more than m that that you've coached, because

221
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: there is sort of that that rare you know, maybe

222
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: just the sheer number of players that are that are

223
00:14:50,320 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: back from last season. UM. Well, let's say it's a

224
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: safety position. I can't imagine that there's any team in

225
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: the league that's had more consistency at that position than

226
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: we've had over the last few years with um, Duran, Pat,

227
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: Devin and Nate for that matter. Um, you know, Jordan

228
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: was here for you know, for three years. Um, but

229
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: you know, obviously he was gone last year. But you know,

230
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of continuity there. Um. And I'd

231
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: say overall, you know, when you look at our defensive rocks,

232
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys that have played a lot

233
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: of football here, UM, but this year it's probably been

234
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: a little bit more, um maybe than in the past. UM.

235
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: You know, and a player like Jamie Collins, who's a

236
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: new player, but he's not really a new player. UM,

237
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: that probably sort of counts as a you know, as

238
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: an experienced veteran player. UM. So yeah, I agree with

239
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: Devin our carry over defensively as good. We did have

240
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: a good head start on that. UM. But I think

241
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: that you know, over the last couple of years, we've

242
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: had um, a you know, pretty high level of continuity. Granted,

243
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: you know we've lost a couple of you know, a

244
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: couple of big players here the last few years. You know,

245
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: Trey Flowers was a you know, really a three year

246
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: heavy starter for us, and you know Logan Ryan and

247
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: m Butler and you know, guys like that they had,

248
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: you know, played three or four years. So you know,

249
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: this year it was good to have Jason back with

250
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: Steph and and John Jones and JC. So there's there's

251
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: good continuity there at the corner position. You know, maybe

252
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: a little more than we've had the last couple of years,

253
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: but you know, Stef's been here three years and John's

254
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: been here four years, so it's yeah, it's it's maybe

255
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: a little more than it's been but but we've had

256
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: a decent level of that over the last you know,

257
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: two or three years too, So yeah,
