1 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: That we're still going the process of defense. We have 2 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: to take this loss and learn from it. He did 3 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,600 Speaker 1: a great job yesterday of getting back to work, working 4 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 1: fundamentals and you know, go back out there and line 5 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: it up again. Such a beast fading position. I think 6 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: the type guy beat on a play earlier in the game, 7 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: and then he made that crucial dirt now stop to 8 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: give offensive ball back. Just being in positions like that 9 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: and seeing a young player made that stop, how does 10 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: how much confidence does that give you with a guy 11 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: like we have our confidence because we've seen him in 12 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,599 Speaker 1: practice and we understand that he's a good player with 13 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: that position and a lot of positions in the back end. 14 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: You hear it all the time, you know, uh gotta 15 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: have a short memory. And he did a good job 16 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: of coming back and playing the next play. And that's 17 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: what you have to do. You know, they're gonna make 18 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: play the time aimes and you have to brush it 19 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: off and come back in and go back to battle. 20 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: Like what was it? Total mistass? I think it was 21 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: right around eighteen. How many more is that than you 22 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: would be acceptable? Too many more? Yes, yeah, too many more. 23 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: That's a thing you know in this game you have 24 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: to tackle. It helps us on you know, third down 25 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: because instead of being third and short, now with third 26 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 1: medium and you're in a different different thought process. Last 27 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: the last time that you guys didn't have the defensive 28 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: ever you wanted, you came back the next week against 29 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: the depended upon it and playing lights out. You extract 30 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: the response for this meren to be something said, not 31 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: necessarily shut out. On the same terms of being able 32 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: to the response you got to get as far as 33 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: being a competitor, that's what you look for if you 34 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: you know, if you fall down, you gotta get back up. 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: And they came to work yesterday with the understanding of 36 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: we're back to the basics. We're trying to go one know, 37 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: this week, we're gonna go back and just be ourselves 38 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: and get back there the way we play football in 39 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,519 Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. In terms of the run game, 40 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: I mean last week, just how much did the quarterback, 41 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: you know, being mobile and being able to run. How 42 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: much do you think that kind of affected things, Maybe 43 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: just making guys think a little bit more. I think 44 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: that's a that's part of it. He's another option that 45 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: they have. But at the end of the day, we 46 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: were out of our gaps. We didn't play fundamentally sounds 47 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: so we gotta get back to doing what we do. 48 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: As a coordinator, you more wanting to face a quarterback 49 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: like this week is maybe less less of a running threat. 50 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: It's really in run game. You just want to go 51 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: out there and be successful against the run game. No 52 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: matter who's running. They have a really good running back 53 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: and we're have a work cut out for us. How 54 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: it will also would be if if it fully can't go, 55 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: just in terms of how much he had dictates what 56 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: happens from the deepensive, it would be a big loss. 57 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: But you know we have guys that are ready and 58 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 1: able to go behind him, so you know, if he's 59 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: unable to play, then we'll the next man will be 60 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: up and we'll go. Everyone always says turnovers coming bunches. 61 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: What makes a defense be able to be on the 62 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: right side of those turnovers and and get them flowing. 63 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: I think it's a lot of effort and just the mentality. 64 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: We talk about it, but the guys go out there 65 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: and they really think about it, and they practice it, 66 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: and they practice fast, and that's part of it. Being 67 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: able to be around the ball being able to play 68 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: fast and affect the quarterback, affect receivers, and it's like 69 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: you said, they come in bunches. Said earlier this week 70 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: that he thinks a lot of those turnovers are coming 71 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: from your personality and just kind of how you talk 72 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: to the players and what you're expecting from them. Do 73 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: you think that's a fair statement that they're responding to 74 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: what you and the rest of the coaches too. I 75 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: wish I could say that, but they're the ones out 76 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: there making the place. You know, we talk about it 77 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: as a staff, and we talk about it as coaches 78 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: to the players all the time. We you know, we 79 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: have different things behind the scenes that we try to 80 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: stress and but they go out there and they in 81 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: the right position, they play fast, and they're creating the 82 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: turnovers the world of you seen from Andre Cisco from 83 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: week one until now. I think he's been He's consistent. 84 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: You saw him early on. Communication was there. Now it's 85 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: just even multiplying. He's communicating and made the big play 86 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: last weekend. We just can continue to see that happened. 87 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: What kind of stresses Brandon Cooks put on defense. He's 88 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: a guy that they go to. He's a guy that 89 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: you know, when it's time to get the ball or 90 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: time for critical play, you know they're looking for him. 91 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: And anytime you have a guy that's a volume player, 92 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: that has a skill set that he has, it's gonna 93 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: be a tough day. When you look at Davis Mills, 94 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: what stands out to you? He has athleticism and he's 95 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: able to commend the offense. You see him. He throws 96 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: R P O s, he throws uh, the deep passes, UH, 97 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: He's able to hand the ball off and you know, 98 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: just be able to run the show for them. And 99 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: I think that's a that's the way they want him 100 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: to play, and I think he's playing that way. Young 101 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: quarterbacks sometimes can get confused by defenses. What what is 102 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: it that defenses can do to kind of give young 103 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: quarterbacks those extra struggles or make them think a little 104 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: bit longer. I think in really the way we go 105 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: about it, any quarterback, you want to speed him up, 106 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: You want to pressure him, and we just want to 107 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: go out there and try to show him a different look. 108 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: And you know, pressure him as much as we can. 109 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: The front four and I try to get after him, 110 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: make him speed his clock up. So that's uncomfortable for him. 111 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you.
