1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: You get a bonus when your guy gets special things, 2 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 1: player of the week or does that work. I ain't 3 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: seen it yet, so now I'm happy for Graham. He's uh, 4 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: he's done a good job for us. And uh, he's 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: just Graham. You know, He's doing what he does and 6 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: he shows up in big spots and big games. So 7 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: was he kicking with one of something extra against him? 8 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 1: I'm sure it was. I'm sure he was. I'm sure 9 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 1: if he wanted to pick a team to do it 10 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,319 Speaker 1: against and be that one. So he did a great job, 11 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: and he did a great job with all his kicks, 12 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:34,880 Speaker 1: kickoffs as well as the field goals. So I definitely 13 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: appreciate his performance on Sunday. Sure he's got like the 14 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: record I think for fifty plus field goals and in 15 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: the franchise history or something. I think I saw, like 16 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:43,559 Speaker 1: how munch of weapons When you can put him out 17 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: there from fifty plus and pretty reliable, you know, I mean, 18 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: he's definitely a bonus, you know. Uh, you feel like 19 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: any time you know you crossed the thirty five, you 20 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: got points, you know. So, uh, that's a luxury to 21 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: have and we don't take it for grant it. That's 22 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: for sure. But uh, you know, Graham has done a 23 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: great job and hopefully will continue to just keep doing 24 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: what he's doing and being consistent and being more than 25 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: anything a great leader of pro So he's he's a 26 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: greatly appreciator on here, he has some McCole. Hartman is 27 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,479 Speaker 1: probably the fastest guy, not on a team with Tyreek Hill. 28 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: But how dangerous upon returners Hardman? Oh my gosh. I mean, 29 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: you know you put on the tape and his speed 30 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: just jumps off the tape. You know, they can probably 31 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: put a four by one team together and beat half 32 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: college team during here. But now he can fly and uh, 33 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: you know, he's scary fast and he can stick his 34 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: foot in the ground make cuts at full speed and 35 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: he's a super super talented guy. So yeah, they well 36 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: have our work cutout for us, for sure. You returners, 37 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: who's sort of next on your list of possibility there? 38 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: You know the guys are playing the game. You know 39 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: he had Dante, We got Darnay, Uh you know John Ross. 40 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,559 Speaker 1: You know we got some guys, so we're not completely that. Yeah, 41 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: con Russe would be next up and unsuccorted the punt return. 42 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: Not no, he won't punt return kick return, but we 43 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: punt return. Um, it could be you know, Dante, it 44 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: could be Darnay, could you know, be a couple of guys. 45 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 1: So we got some we have some options back there, 46 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: and we're gonna keep working. Uh depends on how KT 47 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: is with his health. You know, he can definitely be 48 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: back there. Uh, but you know, whoever is up, we're 49 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: block form and and uh we're trying and go make 50 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: a play. So whenever like a prominent offensive or defensive 51 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: player is hurt, special teams if this kind of topic 52 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: comes up, like what do you think about that? The 53 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: idea of is it too risky to put a guy 54 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: as important to the defense back to turn kicks? Uh, 55 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you probably ask the wrong person that. Uh, 56 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: you you take a risk when you step out in 57 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: between those white lines and they play they pay YouTube 58 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 1: play football, and they don't say, okay, you can only 59 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 1: play this part, but you can't play that part. It's 60 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: a game. You get paid to play the game. So uh, 61 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: we're trying to win games. We're gonna pay to play 62 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: the best players and uh, you know, and and the 63 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: thing about it is, in this game, you don't know 64 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: when the game change and play is gonna happen, and 65 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: you don't know who's going to make it, you know, 66 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: So the game doesn't care who makes to play, you know, 67 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: we do. So we just want to make sure that 68 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: we got guys in the game that can make players. 69 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: Regardless of quote unquote injuries or whatever. We gotta trying 70 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: to win games, you know, so whatever we gotta do 71 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: to win a game, will do what we gotta do 72 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: win the game. So when Tony's healthy, you guys would 73 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: not hesitate at all to put him on returns. Absolutely, 74 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: that's what he's here for. You know, you can't draft 75 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: a guy and say, oh, this guy has great return ability, 76 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: he can do all of this, and then as soon 77 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: as you get here, we can't put him on. He's 78 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna. He's made out of class and he's 79 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: hurt him. He's a football player. I mean, you watch 80 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: him catch the ball, catch a slint. It's hard to 81 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: bring down, you know. So guys like that are threatened. 82 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: You know, the tiree kills at the threats. They have 83 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: coaches up at night thinking about how they're gonna stop 84 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: the threat. You know. So, uh, you know, we we're 85 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: just gonna try and use our best players and try 86 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: and win games. So you have to be itching. I mean, 87 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: you just talked about it. If you want to play 88 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: this guy, obviously you could do it, but you just 89 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: haven't gotten that opportunity yet. Yeah, I mean, like I said, 90 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: as a special teams coach, you know, obviously you want 91 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: things to happen, you want to play certain guys, but 92 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: you also got to manage the roster too. You gotta 93 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: be smart and how you do it so you know, 94 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: we see how dynamic is when it gets the ball 95 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: in his hand, you know, and regardless of when when 96 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: he gets the ball in his hand is you know, 97 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: to me, it doesn't make any difference. And I'm sure 98 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm sure Joe feels the same way. I mean, we're 99 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: just trying to win games. But you also got to 100 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: be smart how you make sure he's health and he 101 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: feels good and he feels comfortable being back there, because 102 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, that's the most important thing, 103 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: Like the player has feel comfortable do and what he's doing, 104 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: you know, and that's what we want, we don't. You know, 105 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm not forcing anybody to do anything. I want him 106 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: to feel like Okay, coach I want to go back 107 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: there and make a play. You know, I feel good. 108 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: I want to play. I want to make a play 109 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: for this football team. And that's that's what we're looking for. 110 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: Thomas talking about the difference between college power return in 111 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: the NFL. Obviously it's harder, like so many things are 112 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: at this level. How is Tony doing with uh, the 113 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: learning curve of I know you guys aren't working a 114 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: ton and he's been hurt, But how is the learning 115 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: curve then for him with learning to competently return punts 116 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: at the NFL level? I think it's like anything else, 117 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: Like once you start getting the game reps, it's one 118 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: thing to come out here and do it and catch 119 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: balls off the jugs and you know, catch balls from 120 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: Riley and practice, it's a whole another different thing to 121 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: get in the game see that ball, you know, under 122 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: the lights, see it turnover, and then to be able 123 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: to just let your natural instincts kick in, you know. 124 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: So I think once he starts to get game reps 125 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: at it to be different. I could tell you give 126 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 1: you a different answer, but you know, you never you 127 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: never know until God gets other lights and you gotta 128 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: return to kick, you know, with real blows fund more 129 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: upunt returns. Punters are so good, I look at any 130 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 1: return as a positive. Last week, the guy punted seven 131 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,919 Speaker 1: times and had three ten yard penalties. That's something like 132 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: you gotta get your guys and yeah, it's frustrating, you know, 133 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: it's really frustrating, and uh, you know, we can't afford 134 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: to do that period, Like that's that's something you just 135 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: can't afford to do it, you know, because it hurts 136 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: the team. And we're talking about impacting the team in 137 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: a positive way, and you can't impact the team the 138 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: possible way. About having penalties, We've got to be able 139 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: to play penalty free, like that's just that's a non negotiable, 140 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: Like I'm not I'm never gonna sit up here and 141 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: justify having a penalty like we can't. We can't have penalties, 142 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: and that's you know, that's something we gotta fix. And 143 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: that's up to me to help clean it up, coach 144 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: him up to be better. Your data, like it seems 145 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: like the amount of players have a special team proportionate. 146 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: There's more penalties than on you know, offense, defense saves. 147 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: That's a good question. I wish I knew. Yeah, I 148 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,239 Speaker 1: wish I knew. I mean, it's it's probably a pery 149 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: fuel question right there. I don't know if I just 150 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: I just go out there and coach, that's all I don't. 151 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: I don't worry about when't it throwing the flag? How 152 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: did it? If they're throwing on us? He looks, stop 153 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: whatever you're doing, don't do it again. You know. So 154 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: did you get ahead? Did you get what you wanted 155 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: out of that formation without a punt returner and on 156 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: the game. Yeah? Absolutely, Yeah, that was twenty eight yard punt. Yeah, 157 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: thats what we want. Uh. You know, when you when 158 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: you do things like that, it's just situational and uh, 159 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: you know, you got a new punter back there, and 160 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: you gotta think about some things and he ain't kind 161 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 1: of been in that situation before, and just thinking about 162 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: speeding it up and speed guys up. Sometimes back there, 163 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: young punter, backed up, worried about getting it blocked. You'll 164 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: get a twenty eight yard put
