1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: Morning though, How are you morning? How are you doing? 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: How you doing? Good? Good? Gave the gave the players 3 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: the weekend off. What are you hoping to see when 4 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 1: you guys get back together tomorrow? Oh? Yeah, started getting 5 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: ready furs on him and it's a team we don't 6 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: know very well. Ulos the team and a team so 7 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: don't see very much of them, so uh get familiar 8 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,840 Speaker 1: with them and continued, Uh, you know, playing up things 9 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: on our end. Bill, Now that you had a chance 10 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: to look at that game film against the Buffalo Bills, 11 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: you guys seem like you did a really good job 12 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: of keeping Josh Allen in the pocket. There weren't many 13 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: of those broken plays, are even big design runs where 14 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: he was able to rip off a bunch of yattage. 15 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: But what do you think were some of the issues 16 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: that ultimately led to you from a defensive standpoint to 17 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: maybe putting yourself in a position where you lost that 18 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: football game. We need to do a better job on 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: third down in the red area. It's a big things, Bill, 20 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: while getting ready for Arizona. When you look at this 21 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: team both with and without DeAndre Hopkins, what does he 22 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: bring to this to this team that's going to be 23 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: really hard to go against come Sunday. No, Hopkins is 24 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: a tough matchup player. He's long, he's got tremendous hands 25 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: and catching ability, you know, right up there with the 26 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: top of the guys that you know have that played 27 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: or or the op coach against. UM. So he's a 28 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: He's a mismatch player and very, very productive. But when 29 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: you look at this game against the Cardinals, UM, I'm 30 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: not one hundred percent sure if Kyler Murray is a 31 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: go go, but it seems like just in you know, 32 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: some recent games, when you get quarterbacks that have the 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: capability like Lamar Jackson or justin fields that have that 34 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: capability of making plays with their legs. Um, Kyler Murray 35 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: has that ability. What do you guys got to make 36 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: sure that you do not to allow him if he 37 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: does play to make big plays with his legs. All right, Well, 38 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: as always, it comes down to discipline defense, and there's 39 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: no one man that can stop Jackson or Josh Allen 40 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: or Murray whoever those type players are. Then they can 41 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: do a lot of different things. So it's good team 42 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: defense and playing with good good awareness, good leverage, good discipline, 43 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 1: and obviously good tackling once you get a chance to 44 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: once you get a chance to get him. Bill Kendrick 45 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: Bourne said after that game Thursday night, we need to 46 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: scheme up better. Have you spoken to him about that? 47 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: And is there some frustration when it comes to players 48 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: on this team with the essentially the scheme offensively? Oh yeah, 49 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: and that's you know, we worked through the schemes every 50 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: week depending on who we play and so forth. So, um, yeah, Bill, 51 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: how do you do that? We scheme up every week? 52 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: We've run our schemes every week. I'm not really sure 53 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: about that. Bill. Having this much time off between Thursday 54 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: and then playing on Monday, obviously you guys have to travel. 55 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: How does the week kind of shake up to make 56 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: sure that you have the guys prepared and ready to go, 57 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: but also giving them enough rest to to recoup from 58 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: from Thursday. Right. Well, that's that's the three days that 59 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: um we've had actually four account Friday. Any Friday is 60 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: pretty you know, everybody's pretty worn out of Thursday night. 61 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: But um, yeah, Saturday Sunday today for the players, and 62 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: then we'll come back and get to work tomorrow, so 63 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: we'll kind of be back on a normal week. Um. 64 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: Once they come back. But at this point in the year, 65 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: I think players to use use kyos. Today's to you know, 66 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: get over the bumps and is and and uh, like 67 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: I said, just come over the new outlook, fresh outlook 68 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: here on on Arizona. Bill, do you guys plan on 69 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: Obviously I know you don't want to look ahead, but 70 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: you guys play Arizona, then you play in Vegas? Is 71 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: the plan just to stay down there or stay on 72 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: on the on the left coast? Is it to stay 73 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: down there? And if so, what's that like? Uh, preparing 74 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: for games when you know that you're gonna be basically 75 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: away from home for you know, almost you know, seven 76 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:38,119 Speaker 1: or two weeks on the road, right, Yeah, a little 77 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: bit about eight days. Uh so, yeah, that's if we've 78 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: done that before. And and um Vegas is a team 79 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: that we have some familiarity with from from preseason. We 80 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: spend time with him out there. But at the same 81 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: time a lot of things have changed, um and for 82 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 1: them and us since back in August, so you know, 83 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: we'll start to work on again. We have different people 84 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: on our staff doing different things, so some people move 85 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: ahead and other people stay and focus on the game 86 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: that we have and then you know, catch up after 87 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: the game, so kind of be on our normal cycle there. Bill, 88 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: you said that, you know, you scheme up every week. 89 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: In response to Greg's question about Kendrick Corner, I was 90 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: just curious over the weekend or at all, has there 91 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: been any thought to changing up the offensive play caller 92 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: or the system that you've been using through the first 93 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: twelve weeks of the season. Yeah, I think we need 94 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: to do what we're doing better. Yeah. I don't think 95 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: at this point making a lot of dramatic changes. Is 96 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: it's too hard to do that we need we're we 97 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: can just do consistently what we were doing well. I 98 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: think we'll be all right. But we just haven't been 99 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: able to have enough existency. And you know that's hardest. 100 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: It's not one thing. It's just one time, it's one thing, 101 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: next time it's something else. We just have to say 102 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: and coach more consistently. I know. I think in September 103 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: he said to the Globe that if the you know, 104 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: if you looked at the Patricia Judge experiment, that if 105 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: that didn't work, that that you would be to blame. 106 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: Are you are you how are you feeling about the 107 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: way that has worked so far. Yeah, well I'm responsible, 108 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: you know, I'm responsible for um, you know, our team's performance. 109 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: So I accept that. Mac Jones after the game has 110 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: said that he would like to be coached harder. He 111 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: said he needs to play better, but he's he would 112 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: also like to be coached harder. How do you make 113 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: sure that whoever your quarterback is, they're getting what they 114 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: need to give their best on the field. Yeah, well 115 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: we coach everybody the best we can every week. That's 116 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: not going to change, Bill, Bill, you talk about consistency, 117 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: and usually generally when you think about consistency, it's you know, 118 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: you say, okay, is it a lack of focus at 119 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: times that's allowing us not be able to play consistent? 120 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: Or is it poor technique when you're watching film and 121 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: you're trying to figure out, okay, why are you so 122 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: when consistent at so many different times? Are you noticing 123 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: is it one or the other? Is it just a 124 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: combination of both? Yeah, we got things a little bit 125 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: of a combination of things. Um, you know, on every 126 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: every front, really coaching, playing penalties. You know, we've had 127 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: some high penalty games and then we've had some low 128 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: penalty games, and so that's you know, we've had some 129 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: turnover games and then we've had some no turnover games, 130 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: um and so forth. So it's it's just it hasn't 131 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: always been the same problem, or it has been the 132 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: same problem on on certain plays. Sometimes that's shifted, UM 133 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: and some you know, there's certainly done some plays that 134 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,559 Speaker 1: haven't matched up well against the defense when they were called. 135 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: So uh, well that's the design of the play or 136 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: you know the way that against a certain defense, and 137 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: you know those those have come up as well. So yeah, 138 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: that's a combination of things. Bill Matt Jones was visibly 139 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: frustrated late in that game against the Bills. Uh, And 140 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: he's been under a lot of durest this season in 141 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: terms of pass rushing. It seems to have taken a 142 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: bit of a step back from where we saw him 143 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: at points last year. Are you worried about max progression 144 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: at all as we go forward here? Well, I think 145 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: we're all certainly all I to be doing better uh 146 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 1: than than what we're doing from records and point and 147 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: from a you know, individual execution. But you know, we're 148 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: gonna look ahead, not backwards, and I don't know, you know, 149 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: look towards the next opportunity here against Arizona, and you 150 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: get back on track this week. So I think that's 151 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: all the people I have talked to, players, coaches. I 152 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: think we're all feel the same way about that. We 153 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: can't control what's already happened. The control controls what's in 154 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: front of us. All right, Bill, Well, thanks as always 155 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: for taking the time, and we will talk to you 156 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: again next week. Okay, yea, sounds good, all right,
