1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Him word progress from way.

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 2: Once and now Yeah, very positively is probably the way

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: I would explain it. He's very decisive. You know, he's

4
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 2: done a great job with his feet the last few

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 2: weeks too. But he's a tremendously accurate thrower and a

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,440
Speaker 2: very mature decision maker in my opinion at this point.

7
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 2: You know, for for a young guy, but he's definitely progressed,

8
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: and you know, he's getting the ball where it's supposed

9
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 2: to go just about all the time.

10
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 3: He's keeping a lot of plays alive with his feet.

11
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 2: So he makes you work, you know, just like all

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: the other great players at that position. He makes you

13
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: work obviously with the plan in the pocket to defend

14
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 2: him and then trying to mix and change your coverages

15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 2: because he sees it really, really well.

16
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: He got a quarterback like Rooie. I mean, he can

17
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: move around. Yeah, he's gonna keep you on your toes

18
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: kind of.

19
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 4: He has a little bit of that Mahomes to his game.

20
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's just he's a big, strong kid too.

21
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: But you know, he keeps plays alive in the play.

22
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 2: He's one of those guys. He plays alive in the

23
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: pocket and he can really do damage down the field

24
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: throwing the ball because he keeps the plays alive. You know,

25
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: it's one thing to get out of there and scramble

26
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: and get through, which he does do a good job

27
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 2: at that.

28
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,960
Speaker 3: But it's some of those plays that you look over

29
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 3: the course of the season where.

30
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: He's kept it alive and gotten big chunk plays down

31
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 2: the field because he keeps his eyes down the field.

32
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: So he's an aggressive player at that position, and you

33
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,199
Speaker 2: gotta have a good plan for him.

34
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: Soonio Johnson, over like the past two.

35
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 2: Weeks or so, I think that's more just an accumulation

36
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: of all the work that he's put in, you know,

37
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 2: watching him every day from the spring till now. It's

38
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 2: little by little, and I think what you're seeing is

39
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: a lot of that stuff is manifesting and he's got

40
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 2: I think a lot of confidence in what he's doing,

41
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 2: because it's like anything else, if you do some of

42
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: the same things over and over and over again, you

43
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: can become a.

44
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: Master at it.

45
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: And I think he's trending in a way where he

46
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 2: not only knows what he's supposed to do, he knows

47
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 2: what everybody's around, everybody around him supposed to do, and

48
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: he's got some position in flexibility too, because he's a

49
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 2: big guy and a physical guy. He can play down

50
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 2: closer to the line of scrimmage, you know, do some

51
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: nickel type of roles and linebacker type of roles, those

52
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 2: type of things. You've seen him do that, and has

53
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: the ability to play back on the hash with some

54
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 2: man coverage skills too down low. So he's really got

55
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 2: a great skill set in my opinion, and he's he's

56
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: progressed very very well, and I think.

57
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 3: He's doing a really good job for us.

58
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: He's the way to pass rush responded after you know

59
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: what Liam said after the Houston game.

60
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 4: Over the last two weeks.

61
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think some of those, some of the rushes

62
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 2: in the last two weeks, the guys have done a

63
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: very good job. There's you know some where we had

64
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: him in the grasp too. You know that didn't show

65
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: up his sacks, but definitely affected the quarterback and affected

66
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 2: the outcome of the play. Uh, And that's we're gonna

67
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 2: need that down a stretch, you know. I think we've

68
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 2: gotten a little bit better there. We've got to continue

69
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: to progress there. The guys are working their ass off

70
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: to get that right. I think our d line coaches

71
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: have done a really really good job with that. Matt

72
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: Edwards and Derek LeBlanc have done a really good job

73
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 2: with the plans and staying vigilant with the guys about

74
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 2: how we rush, you know, and really, I think when

75
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: you're doing a good job in the rush, that's usually

76
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 2: because there's a team rush mentality, and there's certainly a

77
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: bunch of selfless guys in there who were trying to

78
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: whether we're running inside stunts or what are outside stunts,

79
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 2: whatever it is, trying to make sure that they execute

80
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: the plan and get guys home, even if it's not

81
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: themselves or good JOm.

82
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 4: How important is would you just talk about can't be

83
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 4: rushing as a team and making sure you're doing your role.

84
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's tremendously important. You know.

85
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: There's some like there's a rush the other day early

86
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 2: in the game, you know, where we set up a

87
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 2: little bit of a spy deal based on the coverage

88
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: that we were playing, and they really executed it really,

89
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 2: really well. I think it was the first or second

90
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: third down of the game, and Dennis came around, did

91
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 2: a good job staying patient. But that's really that's a collective,

92
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 2: that's all four guys executing you know, the call, getting

93
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: the us, getting it moved to where we wanted to go,

94
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: and getting the guy on the.

95
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 3: Ground because we did it correctly.

96
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: So they had a bunch of those over the last

97
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: two weeks, and to be honest with you, we've had

98
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 2: a bunch of those throughout the season, and I think

99
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: they're starting to see the fruits of their labor and

100
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 2: some of that stuff's paying dividends.

101
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 5: Playing rookie quarterbacks is the number one thing to do

102
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 5: to confuse that.

103
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 3: Is that the goal, just confuse them, to make them

104
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 3: pull that ball the more.

105
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think on the back end, even to speak

106
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: to what you were just asking about the pass rush,

107
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 2: the coverage being tight and the coverage being able to

108
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,239
Speaker 2: do a good job disguising can often force the quarterback

109
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 2: to hold the ball. So those two things working together,

110
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 2: I would say that that's usually the case. But this

111
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 2: guy is also, in my opinion, he's he's a sharp kid.

112
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 2: He's very mature. I don't see him making a lot

113
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 2: of bad decisions back there, which to me is the

114
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 2: most impressive thing about him. He's an impressive athlete, but

115
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: he's impressive as a decision maker.

116
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 3: And knowing where to go with the ball.

117
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 2: So we got to do a good job of that,

118
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 2: certainly against anybody, but definitely against him as well. Look

119
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 2: at talk to the guys going, hey, look, yeah, he's

120
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 2: the most sad quarterback in the league.

121
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 3: But that doesn't mean we're gonna we're gonna get to him,

122
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 3: don't Like.

123
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: Just look at that and as soon we're gonna get home.

124
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think you ever can.

125
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: I think they're If you look at their games over

126
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 2: the course of the year, they've been playing a lot

127
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: of tight games. You know, they got the Seattle game

128
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 2: down at one score, game the other day, you're looking

129
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 2: and play Houston the other day two weeks ago or

130
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: whatever it was, ten days ago. Uh, they've done a

131
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 2: really good job and they're fighting. They got their players

132
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 2: playing hard. So we got to do a great job

133
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 2: in the rush. And nobody's looking at this like that

134
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: type of game. Everybody's looking at it like this is Uh,

135
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 2: we got to get our best effort and put our

136
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 2: best foot forward to execute against these guys. He did

137
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 2: a good job. Thought overall, he did a good job.

138
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 2: Un though both guys did you know, and I thought

139
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: Buster overall did a pretty good job too. So having

140
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 2: those guys in there and playing a bunch, it's given us.

141
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: I think it gives you a shot in the arm

142
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: going down to stretch because you know, like real football

143
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: starts at Thanksgiving. In this league, this is that's kind

144
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 2: of an age old saying in the NFL, But uh,

145
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: you're getting down to the nitty gritty here, and we

146
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: got to be at our best, and you want to

147
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: have guys who've played and they've been seasoned, you know,

148
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 2: they've been battle tested. And I feel like we have

149
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 2: a bunch of guys who've done that because we've played

150
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 2: pretty much everybody in the back end. You know, Rayon Lane,

151
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 2: i'd say the same thing. You know, in the back end,

152
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: he's done a good job. From where he started out

153
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 2: in the year at that, I think he's had tremendous progress.

154
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 2: And I would say the same thing about Christian. I

155
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 2: think Craigs just kind of keep going the way he's going.

156
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 2: I don't really need to see anything else when I

157
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 2: got total confidence in Greg, you know, love him as

158
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: a player. I think he's got a ton of skills,

159
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 2: certainly when it comes to man to man and playing

160
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: his own So yeah, I'm confidence as I possibly could

161
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 2: be in any of those guys, and especially Greg.

162
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 5: He touch about how much pride, how important is to

163
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 5: be playing to run.

164
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 4: As well as you guys are.

165
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think if you're if you're stopping the run,

166
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 2: you're making people one dimensional and that's important. I mean,

167
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: I think there's an emotional high that comes from big

168
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 2: plays in the past game, but there's a physical high

169
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 2: that comes from being able to run the ball on somebody.

170
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a more helpless feeling in football

171
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 2: than somebody being able to run the ball and kick

172
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: your ass down the field, you know.

173
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 3: So that's something that is very very important to us.

174
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 2: We kind of hold sacred in our room making sure

175
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 2: that we're doing a good job of that, you know,

176
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 2: and when we're not, it's not good enough, it's not acceptable.

177
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: And I think the guys have taken to that, you know,

178
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 2: to not stay blocked and do your job, do your

179
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 2: one to eleventh, but then go do some more, you know,

180
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 2: go find a way to get to the football. I

181
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: think that's a really important part of run defense, and

182
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: I think our defensive backs and defensive backs coaches have

183
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 2: done a very good job of that of spreading that

184
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: culture around the room because you know, instenally they're gona

185
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 2: make the corners tackle because they don't think corners can tackle.

186
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 2: And you got to have guys that position that are

187
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 2: physical enough to do it, that want to do it,

188
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: and you know, culture culturally, there's buy into that on

189
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 2: our end. So that's another thing, like even asking about

190
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 2: those guys, I think they've both done a really good job.

191
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: I thought even in a run game.

192
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: Greg had some physical reps the other day taking on

193
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: pullers and all kinds of stuff. So yeah, to your

194
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 2: point before, I think both of those guys done a

195
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 2: good job.

196
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 3: Appreciate it.

197
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: After last week there were the turnovers were properly up

198
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: and down. Can that be as much of a confidence

199
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: building game for you and the quarterback and Trevor as

200
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: even a perfect game because you see that he's not

201
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: going to get raveled by that kind of stuff.

202
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 5: Absolutely, And I think you see, especially when you have

203
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 5: success on the other side of it, the resilience to

204
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 5: go from one drive to the next drive. But additionally

205
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 5: to know we can make mistakes and still overcome that.

206
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 5: Not that we would ever want to do that, but

207
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 5: there is an element of doubts sometimes for certain players

208
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 5: when they go out there and make mistakes and say,

209
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 5: even if I play well, can I play well enough

210
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 5: to overcome that? So to be able to go out

211
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 5: there and do your job and do it at a

212
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 5: high level and know that that is enough to overcome

213
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 5: a mistake in a game that you can go up

214
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 5: that that's freeing moving forward to say I can go

215
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 5: play fast and I don't want to make mistakes. We

216
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 5: got to be better about protecting the ball. But if

217
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 5: I do, we can play well enough to overcome those things,

218
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 5: which is huge.

219
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 3: Liam, you know sett he told Trevor after all the picks,

220
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 3: each pick, just to keep throwing and keep chucking it.

221
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 3: How comforting is that for a quarterback to know that

222
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 3: you know he's not.

223
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 2: Going to that he can he has a head coach

224
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 2: that'll tell him that and has the confidence in him

225
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: to just keep firing down there.

226
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 4: It's a huge deal.

227
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 5: And I think Liam's confidence in the quarterback, the offensive line,

228
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 5: the coaching staff, everybody is one of those things that's

229
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 5: contagious and it affects all the players, all the coaches,

230
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 5: the whole organization, because, especially at the quarterback position, you're

231
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 5: going out there and the ball is in your hands

232
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 5: every single play, and it's not like it's in your

233
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 5: hand and you're just like passing it on to even

234
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 5: on plays where hand it off, you're going up there

235
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 5: and you're making a decision that affects the outcome of

236
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 5: the play, effects the outcome of the drive, and then

237
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 5: effects the outcome of the game when you're.

238
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 4: Trapolated all the way out.

239
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 5: So a lot of guys can get in their head

240
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 5: and take that and turn it into the weight of

241
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 5: the world every single time they got to go out

242
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 5: there and make a play which turns into a mistake,

243
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 5: becoming oh, that's the that's costing the team the game

244
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 5: where I'm doing all this and it becomes this you know,

245
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 5: certain like kind of this series of events where guys

246
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 5: end up, you know, falling into bad patterns of habit

247
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 5: and mental spaces.

248
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 4: But to go out there and know like I can make.

249
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 5: A mistake and they still have confidence in me and

250
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 5: I can go out there and play fast is huge

251
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 5: for a quarterback to be able to go out and

252
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 5: play at his highest level because if you're going out

253
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 5: there and then you know whether it's retroactively or preemptively

254
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 5: you're thinking, I can't make mistake, I can't do this,

255
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 5: and all the things I can't do, you're by default

256
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 5: not thinking about all the things you do want to

257
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 5: do and that you are trying to do. So it's

258
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 5: huge for him and he's done a great job of

259
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 5: handling that because one of those things that's easier said

260
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 5: than done. So you say it all the time and

261
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 5: you preach it all the time, but for him to

262
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 5: go out there and do it is really what's so impressive.

263
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:06,719
Speaker 3: The wide receiver room, I.

264
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: Mean, I guess the pecond order is shifted over the

265
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 1: course of the year. How much of an impact and

266
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: that have on like the passing game. Finding that that consistency,

267
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: Williams said he was starting to build more and more

268
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: confidence in the group. Maybe it's because you guys found

269
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: those pass catches you want to for a little bit.

270
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 5: I think there's a lot of things that go into it. Hopefully,

271
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 5: regardless of who's out there at receiver, more time on

272
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 5: task and more time together is going to produce a

273
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 5: better product in the past game, It's going to produce

274
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 5: more chemistry between those guys just pitching and catching or

275
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 5: understanding the space. I got to get to the time,

276
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 5: and I got to get there the way I'm releasing

277
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,599
Speaker 5: on a certain route, the way this release pattern distributes

278
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 5: versus this coverage.

279
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: It plays out like this, or itaus that coverage. It

280
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 4: plays out like that.

281
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 5: But there is an element of guys having a certain

282
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 5: chemistry and finding what guys are good at certain routes

283
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 5: and certain concepts, what routes are good for the quarterback,

284
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 5: what routes are good for Jacoby Parker BT tam all

285
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 5: of our guys. So as we get better as a unit,

286
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 5: it should naturally improve. But finding those guys and finding

287
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 5: what they do well together, what they do well with

288
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 5: the quarterback does make a difference for those guys when

289
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 5: it's playing on time and playing with them, all those

290
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 5: things we talk about. That was a phasial progress, especially

291
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 5: over like the.

292
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 4: Last two or three weeks. He's progressed really all year.

293
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 5: I mean even since the spring coming in, where he

294
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 5: was a ton of stuff for him to learn that

295
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 5: was very different from what he had done in college,

296
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 5: and he's embraced that, and him and really the entire

297
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 5: running back room have attacked that in a really really

298
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 5: impressive way. I mean, the amount of extra work he

299
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 5: puts in with extra walkthroughs, extra film study with coach Morton.

300
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 5: He's up here on his off days getting extra lifts,

301
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 5: working on technique and fundamentals, trying to refine his craft

302
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 5: on his tracks, being disciplined with his cuts, his reads

303
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 5: in the run game, his understanding the protection schemes, really

304
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 5: all areas of his game. I could point the different

305
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 5: facets and say that he's made improvements.

306
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 4: Now.

307
00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 5: Some of it you don't always see because he hasn't

308
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 5: gotten a ton of, for example, targets in the past game.

309
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 5: But when we're out there on the practice field, I

310
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 5: can see him continue to improve where I feel confident

311
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 5: that he has the ability to do certain things in

312
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 5: that area of the game. Same thing in the protection.

313
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 5: He hasn't had a ton of snaps and opportunities to

314
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 5: go up there and fit up complicated protection, you know,

315
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 5: pressure pickups and things like that. But I know from

316
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 5: what I see and walk through is in practice that

317
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 5: he is on the field, that he's capable of that.

318
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 5: So it's it's one thing to improve in the run game,

319
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 5: which he has done a ton of.

320
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 4: He's always been He's always had the talent.

321
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 5: He saw the balance, the strength the speed, the burst,

322
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 5: all those things from day one, but all the nuances

323
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 5: and details of the game have improved. But it's really

324
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 5: exciting to see a guy who hasn't had a lot

325
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 5: of opportunities in some areas of the game still work

326
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 5: so hard to improve those areas. And I mean the

327
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 5: way that whole room and Coach Moore gets those guys

328
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 5: ready to go, the way they attack it, the way

329
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,719
Speaker 5: they practice is awesome for me, it's awesome for the

330
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 5: whole team, it's awesome.

331
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 4: For the unit.

332
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 3: Great.

333
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 4: He's been great. We talked about it last week.

334
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,959
Speaker 5: He was going center, guard, card tackle, left tackle, right tackle.

335
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 5: There's certainly plays in the game from last week that

336
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 5: he would want to that he probably wants back, that

337
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 5: we all want back.

338
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 4: Every guy's got those.

339
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 5: But for him to go out there and do what

340
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 5: he did and be able to play different positions, communicate,

341
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 5: communicate with different guys, different schemes, different blocks, it's totally

342
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 5: a different fit of some of those blocks, even from

343
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 5: left to right. Like, yeah, combination between the guard and

344
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 5: the tackle might be the same combination on paper, but

345
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 5: the actual mechanics of fitting up with my left shoulders

346
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 5: was my right shoulder is a totally different feel for

347
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 5: those guys. So for him to do that week in

348
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 5: and week out is an another area. I know I've

349
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 5: said impressed with those backs, he would fall into that

350
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 5: same category for in strange.

351
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: Just getting him back, I mean you gotta call it

352
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: bass think the first pass of the game. Yeah, how

353
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: good was it to get him back.

354
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 4: In the flow in the mix of things really quickly huge?

355
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 4: Like we mentioned before, we got him back.

356
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 5: He adds a ton of value in attacking defenses in

357
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 5: the pass game and the run game. He can do

358
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 5: so much from a route standpoint. You saw that's a

359
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 5: deeper route. He has a bunch underneath catches where he's

360
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 5: catching and running, so he can really run a pretty

361
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 5: full route tree from a tight end perspective, I mean

362
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 5: he can be flexed out and running routes that receivers run.

363
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 4: And then in the run game, he's in.

364
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 5: Line, he's off the ball, he's slight, you know, he's

365
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 5: going back and forth in the backfield. He's motion and

366
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 5: doing a bunch of things. So he adds an element

367
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 5: of variety that lets us play in a bunch of

368
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 5: different sets in different personnels and still do similar things

369
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 5: out of those personnels or vastly different things out of

370
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 5: those personnels because he is so capable.

371
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 3: Did you realize just.

372
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: How valuable he was going to be to the offense

373
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: when he first came in.

374
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 4: That's a great question. I probably did not. I wish,

375
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 4: I wish I did.

376
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 5: But I mean, the more and more you're around him,

377
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 5: and the more you see the physicality and the explosive

378
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 5: ability in the run game or with the ball in

379
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 5: his hands, the more you realize how special a player

380
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 5: is and how much he adds to our offense, run, attacking, standpoint,

381
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 5: anything else. All Right, awesome, Thank you guys, Happy Thanksgiving guys.

382
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 5: I really appreciate you guys being him
