WEBVTT - Steve Wilks Highlights the Defense’s Performance vs. the Buccaneers | Press Pass

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Only start out by saying, we had a great practice

0:00:02.520 --> 0:00:08.600
<v Speaker 1>today and we haven't gone out yet, so guys are focused,

0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:13.520
<v Speaker 1>guys are locked in. Short week. It's all about fundamentals

0:00:13.520 --> 0:00:14.200
<v Speaker 1>and technique.

0:00:14.280 --> 0:00:14.480
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:19.159
<v Speaker 1>The great thing about playing Tampa last week, you know,

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:21.880
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of carryover to Seattle with the coordinator

0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 1>being from Seattle. So a lot of things that we're

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:28.280
<v Speaker 1>doing this week is carry over for us. And my

0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:31.080
<v Speaker 1>point of emphasis to the players has been, you know,

0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 1>fundamentals and technique and short week, taking care of your body,

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 1>making sure we're fresh and ready to go.

0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:38.720
<v Speaker 2>So with that, I'll take your questions.

0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:42.839
<v Speaker 3>When you prepare for a team like this where the

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 3>forty nine ers are so familiar with Seattle, do you

0:00:46.479 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 3>rely on people who've been here to say, you know,

0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 3>what's worked in the past, what hasn't worked. Do you

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 3>start kind of gauging the room as far as just

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:57.920
<v Speaker 3>you know what your first steps are when you implement

0:00:57.960 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 3>the game play? Yeah?

0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:00.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think you always do that.

0:01:01.360 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>Anytime you have a team that plays one another twice,

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:07.160
<v Speaker 1>I think you have a perspective of of who they

0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:07.959
<v Speaker 1>are and what they do.

0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:09.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, we played Seattle last year.

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I was in Carolina, But uh, being able to play

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 1>these guys, you know, twice a year. If they understand you,

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:19.039
<v Speaker 1>you understand them. Uh, you understand personnel. So uh, we

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>definitely talked as a staff and uh have gone back

0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:23.840
<v Speaker 1>and looked at some of the things that we've done well,

0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:26.080
<v Speaker 1>some of the things that hurt us and uh so

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 1>therefore we can anticipate uh what may be to come.

0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:30.600
<v Speaker 2>How do you feel about the.

0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:34.319
<v Speaker 3>Way Jaire Brown played last week and this is his

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:34.919
<v Speaker 3>first start?

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:36.679
<v Speaker 2>What do you want to see from him this week

0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:37.399
<v Speaker 2>in preparation?

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, I I I first of all, I want to

0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>acknowledge the mere facto, well Huff a captain. Uh. Uh

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:47.400
<v Speaker 1>of when I say a captain, I'm talking about a

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>leader in the secondary, all pro player.

0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:53.919
<v Speaker 1>We're definitely gonna miss him, you know. And for JayR

0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:56.720
<v Speaker 1>to step in uh at that particular time in the

0:01:56.800 --> 0:02:01.120
<v Speaker 1>game and perform the way he did exciting. But Uh,

0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:04.480
<v Speaker 1>he and I talked last week and his preparation each

0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and every day. You can see the growth, uh from

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>when he got here back in the spring.

0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 1>He's playing with a great level of confidence. And I

0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>think the guys back there with Gip uh Fred and

0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>all the guys that's gonna he he's gonna be surrounded

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:18.120
<v Speaker 1>with I think he's gonna be fine.

0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.079
<v Speaker 3>He talked to before the Tampa game.

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Uh, yes, we talk every week.

0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 1>I always talk to those young guys and just trying

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:26.880
<v Speaker 1>to give them a beat on where I feel they

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:30.440
<v Speaker 1>are and their progression and how they're doing. And Uh,

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 1>he indeed winners.

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:31.720
<v Speaker 2>Man.

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:33.959
<v Speaker 1>I think I've made major strides since they've been here,

0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:36.720
<v Speaker 1>and guys that we feel very confident in the situation

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:39.360
<v Speaker 1>if they had to go in unfortunately he did that

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>they were gonna step up and perform.

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 3>On the play where you did get beat or was

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 3>he not count for the wide receiver speed or.

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.239
<v Speaker 2>What was the him on that? Uh?

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Initially I think he's he saw Evans looking back for

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 1>the ball cause we was all out pressure, so he

0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:58.840
<v Speaker 1>assumed that it was coming quick. Uh and it was

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:01.359
<v Speaker 1>really an out and up so so uh he was

0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:05.079
<v Speaker 1>able to recover, Uh just from you know, being as

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 1>athletic as he is and put himself in a great

0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:08.840
<v Speaker 1>position to make a play on the ball.

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 2>He would wisdom to be honest years worth been your

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 2>impression or just how he carries himself.

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.880
<v Speaker 1>I just think he you know, he he's serious about

0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.400
<v Speaker 1>the game and he puts a lot of time and

0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 1>effort into it.

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>UH we met as a staff today defensively early and

0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:26.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, Daniel Bullet wasn't in there cause he was

0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:27.640
<v Speaker 1>meeting with him and he wanted to come in and

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 1>to get some extra work. So Dave does a great

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:31.640
<v Speaker 1>job with all those guys.

0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:35.920
<v Speaker 3>See how important are unimportant are sacks and evaluating the

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 3>effectiveness performance of AUH of.

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:39.360
<v Speaker 2>An aed dreaser like that.

0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, I've I've dealt with this all all year

0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:45.480
<v Speaker 1>in regards to UH lack of production you know out

0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 1>of our front and I tell people all the time

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 1>you have to really watch tape and understand football. It's

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:53.520
<v Speaker 1>a combination of things, but most important, you have to

0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>compliment one another. We have probably one of the highest

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>percentage as far as pressure and hits on the quarterback

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 1>and they're there times you don't see that effect for

0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 1>it's getting sacks because there's certain things that goes in,

0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:07.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, along with that. But as you saw this

0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>past week, we're able to compliment one another with you know,

0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 1>different coverages out of disguise UH or even playing tight man.

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 1>So Uh, A lot of things goes into that, but

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm pleased where we are. I think we're progressing

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.000
<v Speaker 1>up front and uh doing the things we gotta do

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:21.960
<v Speaker 1>to get to the quarterback.

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.360
<v Speaker 3>Just how disruptive was Armstead this week? It seemed like

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.160
<v Speaker 3>he was getting, even for his standards of a lot

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:28.720
<v Speaker 3>of pressure.

0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I I I I agree, I agree completely. I think

0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 1>when you go back and watch the tape his one

0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>on ones, we always talk about it, you gotta win,

0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:41.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, uh collapse the pocket inside and try to

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 1>make the quarterback, you know, being unable to follow through

0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:47.720
<v Speaker 1>with his throws, and you saw Baker quite a bit

0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 1>of times that he could not do that. So uh,

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:53.560
<v Speaker 1>Eric played a great game and looking for him to

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 1>do it again this week.

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.480
<v Speaker 3>Sharbonay the rookie from UCLA probably gonna get a lot

0:04:58.480 --> 0:04:59.240
<v Speaker 3>of run in this game.

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 2>What do you think and and how's uh your challenge

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:02.719
<v Speaker 2>this week?

0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, I g I I think all those guys are

0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:09.559
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a challenge, particularly on a short week.

0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I look at you.

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Know, their their their running back corps, their receiving corps.

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 1>All those skilled guys are phenomenal, and I think Pete

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 1>does an outstanding job in his preparation of getting those

0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:27.279
<v Speaker 1>guys ready to play. Uh. I know the run game

0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 1>is something that y uh point of emphasis for those

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:32.200
<v Speaker 1>guys and trying to create themselves to be a little

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:34.479
<v Speaker 1>bit more balanced. We got to do a great job

0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:36.520
<v Speaker 1>in stopping to run and hopefully trying to make these

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.520
<v Speaker 1>guys one dimensional to where our front can be effective

0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:40.280
<v Speaker 1>on the quarterback.

0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:48.400
<v Speaker 2>That's alright. Appreciate you guys. You didn't have anything to do.
