1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Good morning, Bill. I wanted to ask you about, um,

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: the first challenge of the third quarter yesterday that you

3
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 1: had and whether or not there was any consideration to

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: challenge or if you even can challenge two aspects of

5
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: a particular call, and if you did, would that constitute

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: two challenges in one play? Um? Uh, well yeah, yes,

7
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: a note you hit it exactly right. Um, we challenge

8
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: both aspects of the play. It's one challenge. It's one play.

9
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: We challenge the offensive interference and we challenge um the

10
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: thought so U exactly what you said it was, and

11
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: um when we challenge it, and I thought we had good,

12
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: a good challenge on on both counts. Okay. The reason

13
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: I ask is because the official play by play I

14
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: think only in case that the position, the spotting of

15
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: the ball was the only thing challenge. So you did

16
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: indeed challenge the fact that there could have been offensive

17
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: pass in affairance on Kelsey. Yes, absolutely, yeah, that's exactly right.

18
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: All right, Thank you, Bill, You're welcome. Next question. Mike Reeves,

19
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: followed by Rich Consin. Gree didn't feel I was actually

20
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 1: curious on the same topic there on that challenge, you know,

21
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: with the PI stuff, with the coaches challenges we've seen that.

22
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: We talked earlier in the year on conference calls about

23
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,119
Speaker 1: clear and obvious. If I recall, I was curious how

24
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: confident you were that whether, however, they ruled clear and

25
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: obvious on the PI part of it. How confident were

26
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: you that the spotting of the ball would at least

27
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: almost protect your other two challenges based on what you

28
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: saw on that play, Like, because I am I think

29
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: I'm right if they respotted the ball, even if they

30
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: got a first down, because it was respotted, you thought

31
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: you would have still had two challenges. Do I have

32
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: that right? Well, respotting would have only it would have

33
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: only mattered if it was short of the line again, okay,

34
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: got it, got it? Got it? Okay? And and then

35
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: the blocked the block field goal. Um. When you watched

36
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: that over, Um, how much of that was good execution

37
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: on the Chiefs versus maybe you know, could do better

38
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: job blocking on the Patriot side. Well, they have a

39
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: good overload, Ross, I mean we got to block it.

40
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: Next question, Rich Thompson or if anybody else get five

41
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: star if you want to ask the question. Hey, good morning, bill, Um, Hey,

42
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: you're down to your third center. I just wanted to James.

43
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: Farence held up, Ye, James. You know, James has done

44
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 1: a good job for us. UM, Like everybody in the

45
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: play last night, and everybody coached in the game, there's

46
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: there's all plays we'd like to you don't have back.

47
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: But yeah, so we have James. He stepped in there

48
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: and you know he's You're giving us a you know,

49
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: game and a half of very competitive kind of a play. Okay,

50
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: thank you. Next question, Phil Perry, followed by Doug Kin.

51
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: I built some of your defensive players last night. UM

52
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: commented on how it was important for you guys to

53
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: just try to limit the big play in the second

54
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: half there Just looking at some of the numbers, looked

55
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: like a pretty significant improvement on that side of the

56
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: ball first half the second half. So I'm just curious

57
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: what sort of adjustment you guys made to UM to

58
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: get some of the results that you did. I mean,

59
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: the players did a good job, plays a really good job. UM.

60
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: You know, we rushed the quarterback low and covered pretty well. UM,

61
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: tackled and tackled fairly well. So the players compete really are.

62
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: They did a good job a very very explosive offense. UM.

63
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: They competed hard again. The next question, good kind, Bill,

64
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: I think you can the last couple of weeks, you guys,

65
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 1: have you used some of Michelle pretty heavily early on

66
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: and then maybe he's gone away from him a little bit.

67
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: Is that just based on how the games have gone

68
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: or is there any other reason for that? Yeah, I

69
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 1: know this is how it's going. Good. Thanks Michael Checker,

70
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: followed by Bob Coaching. Thanks Stacy. Thanks sticking with the

71
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 1: running game, Bill, Brandon Bolden has been really productive I

72
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: think in the red zone running the ball this year

73
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: and obviously on the Jeff sweep last night it was

74
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: good for a touchdown. What what is it about Brandon

75
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 1: Bolden that makes him so dependable in the red zone?

76
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: I think Brandon's dependable fourth everywhere, UM all four down

77
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: for a second, third, and fourth down, so wherever we

78
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: need to use. And I think we all we all

79
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: have a lot of confidence in him. I do. I

80
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: know our teammates, teammates do all those all offuntive coaches

81
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: is so, and we have a lot of confidence on

82
00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: him on four down. A good player, a nice situation.

83
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: And if I can follow, Bill, has his running style

84
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: evolved as he's been in the league for so many

85
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: years or has he pretty much been you know, the

86
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: kind of running back that he was coming out of college. Well,

87
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: this is a different than college. I think it's been

88
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: pretty consistent. Thanks Jill, Yeah, you're alcome, Yeah, thanks Stacy.

89
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: Good morning, Bill. I wanted to ask you about the

90
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: block punt by Nate Ebner. This is the fourth block

91
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: punt this season, a franchise record, and essentially just wanted

92
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: to ask you about Joe Judge and Cam a Ford

93
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: and this this special team staff and how they've been

94
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: able to orchestrate you know, that place so frequently. How

95
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: much of it is exploiting a weakness you see in

96
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: and other team's punt protection. How much of it is

97
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: a favorable matchup but in kind of playing year strength,

98
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: especially if you know guys like Mead and Matthews who

99
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: come up and blocks me silas. Oh yeah, well those

100
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: I mean, Cam and Joe, you know, do a good

101
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: job of game plan and it's all the things you

102
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: talked about, schemes, situation, matchups, um so forth. So yeah,

103
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: on that particular play, that was a little unusual. Um,

104
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's it looked like they had a

105
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: fake called, and then they they snapped into the punter

106
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: and part of the part of the line was blocking

107
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: a fake and the other part was looked like they

108
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: were trying to pump the ball. So not sure exactly

109
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: what what they were doing on that yet that it

110
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: looks looks like a very called and and if you

111
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: could follow up when you later in the game, did

112
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: not deploy or dispatch or return, man, what what's what's

113
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: what's what's that situation in particular? How does that dictate

114
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, that decision not to put Mohammed back there

115
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: or anybody else in that situation. Yeah, well we've we've

116
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: used that before, you know, obviously a way to put

117
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: press around them on the other team's punt protection. You

118
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: can account for ten guys and start accounting for a

119
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: leven that you know, it's great another problem, right, Thanks, Okay,

120
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: thank you, welcome. Next question Mike Reef, followed by Rich Thompson.

121
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: Still offensively, it seemed like early um, I seemed like

122
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: two tight ends was a heavy grouping for you guys.

123
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 1: How accurate would it be to just say that that's

124
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: as much as you guys have used it this season? Yeah,

125
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: I'm like we're we use a lot of different personnel

126
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: group things, so they all need to be ready to go.

127
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: All those groups need to be ready to go. They

128
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: know that, you know, we have roles for a lot

129
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: of different people, and then we'll continue to do that. Anyway,

130
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: we were talking about before that we haven't had a

131
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 1: lot of I don't think a lot of challenges to

132
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: talk about this year. Obviously this game was different. I'm

133
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: curious from your perspective, like when you're throwing the first

134
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: one that we talked about the time left in the

135
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: game three oh seven left in the third quarter, Like

136
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: how much are you balancing that knowing that if this

137
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: challenge doesn't go my way, I only have one left?

138
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: Like where is the time cut off in your mind?

139
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: And I know part of that situational the third and

140
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: four when you decide to throw that, Like how much

141
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 1: I guess the movie how much are you thinking about

142
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: preserving you know, direct your other challenges in that situation. Yeah,

143
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: every every situation is different, you know. I try to

144
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 1: do with this this mean what I think will help

145
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: the team, and I believe it's a good challenge, then

146
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: I'm likely to throw it. If it's not done, I

147
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't. I felt good about the challenge, but it

148
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: didn't work out. Next question, Rich Thompson, Paul Boy, Phil Perry, Hey, coach,

149
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: just talk about Jake Baily in terms of length, strength

150
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: and position. I just noticed that he uh, he set

151
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: the club record for punch inside the twenty. Oh. Jake's

152
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 1: a very talented player. I think we can all see that. Um,

153
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: it's got good good mechanics, good athleticism, um, you know,

154
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 1: good legs, speed, and it's got a real it's a

155
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: good high level of maturity for his agents experience. So done,

156
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: a good job for us, and I'm glad we have him. Okay,

157
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: thank you, and that's like the last question. That's that's

158
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 1: the last question. We feel carried great. Thanks Bill. I'm

159
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: wondering have you had any sort of conversation with l

160
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: Riveron since the game last night about why things were

161
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 1: called the way they were called, the mechanics of what

162
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: went on last night. Yeah, so only those conversations that

163
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: I have with the league or or UM. I would

164
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: treat those as private conversations. And you talk to the

165
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: officials after the game or somebody didn't ask them questions,

166
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 1: So that's that's your opportunity to do that and say

167
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,439
Speaker 1: you should take advantage of and see what they have

168
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: to say if you have a question about it. I

169
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,839
Speaker 1: wouldn't try to speak for somebody else. That's not really

170
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: I don't believe in that. So the have a question

171
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: about something that they did or what they're what you

172
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: know they have a question about, I think you should

173
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 1: ask them. And I think somebody you know did or

174
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: should have done that last night. That's you know, that's

175
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: that important to you, then go ahead and do it.

176
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: Our guy, Mike Reefs was was on that last night,

177
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: and I get your UM, I understand what you're saying there.

178
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: I do want to follow up just quickly and just

179
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: ask so you feel like the communication between the team,

180
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: you and the officiating department al River Run has been

181
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: has been good, has been fluid? Um this season? Yeah? Yeah,

182
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: So I really appreciate the question, but I think you're officials,

183
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,359
Speaker 1: You're officiating questions really need to go to the officials.

184
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: You know. I'm trying to coach the team and do

185
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: the best that I can make our team as competitive

186
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: as possible and would as many games as possible. If

187
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: that's really what I'm focused on, and I think your

188
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 1: other questions should be directed towards somebody else, frankly, and

189
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: one last question, Mandoel Wolfson, Thanks da, Good morning, Bill

190
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: so Um. Two offensive snaps for Nikil Harry yesterday. One

191
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: of them came in the red zone, and he really

192
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: should have had his second touchdown in the red zone

193
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: in the last three games. So I'm just wondering what

194
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: went into the decision to limit his snaps but then

195
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: use him in the red zone. And have you've seen

196
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: progress from him as a red zone threat. I'm moving forward.

197
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep n kills many progress in every area

198
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, it's a lot of ground for

199
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: him to make up the you know, when he came back,

200
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 1: also major reserve in this season, so you know, he's

201
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: working hard at it and he's improved, and as I said,

202
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: he's got a way to go. And you know, we'll

203
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: try to utilize our our team and our players. You know,

204
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: that's the way we can based on all the circumstances

205
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: that are involved in each and every game. Okay, thank you,

206
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: all right, awesome
