Speaker 5: for us, our organization, our team and in terms of

23
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,240

Speaker 5: to find the last you.

25
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 3: Were quoted and can't reported that you said he needs

26
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 3: live reps.

27
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 5: Well, I think so, Yeah, I think I think that's

28
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 5: what When I say that, I mean like practice especially

29
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 5: you know, being out practicing, you know, throwing the ball

30
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 5: around like he's doing.

31
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 6: I think uh is great for him, you know.

32
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 5: And and those reps of getting back into the flow

33
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 5: against like we've got a great defense, you know, so

34
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 5: seeing those seeing those reps, seeing those different looks that

35
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 5: our defense gives him, and being able to stack those.

36
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 6: Reps on top of each other are huge, get huge

37
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 6: for him.

38
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 5: And then anything in the preseason that if we decide

39
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 5: to go that direction of the preseason, those will be

40
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 5: bonus reps for him.

41
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 7: On top of that, can where do you feel like

42
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 7: he is at in terms of where you thought he

43
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 7: might be, you know, eight basically eight practices in in

44
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 7: terms of the arm, the arm strength of the accuracy

45
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 7: that all that.

46
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I think he's progressing well for us.

47
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 5: I think he's doing a really good job one managing

48
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 5: his body, managing his shoulder, having great open communication with

49
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 5: us to make sure, you know, it feels like it's

50
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 5: in the right space for him, so he could go

51
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 5: out and play confident, but physically out there throwing it.

52
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 6: I think you know, you saw him, you know.

53
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 5: Get get some balls vertically downfield throughout camp, which is

54
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 5: very encouraging.

55
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 6: To see and a great positive for us.

56
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 5: And you see him making you know, all the throws

57
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 5: necessary that that we need to make within the system.

58
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 5: And you know, to Tony's point, like the more he

59
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 5: practices and the more he sees those live reps in practice,

60
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 5: the more comfortable he's gonna get.

61
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 8: Kind of as we go right here during the offseason programming,

62
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 8: it looked like that the throws were a little shorter

63
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 8: than we're starting to see now. Was that kind of

64
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 8: part of the planet all along to etch him out

65
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 8: in increments with you know, the length of the throws,

66
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 8: a couple of.

67
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 6: Deep yes yesterday, things like that.

68
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, And you know in that final minute camp, you know,

69
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 5: the the encouraging thing going all the way back there

70
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 5: is he did you know let one out there in

71
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 5: that in that mini camp to have the first throwing

72
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 5: session in a team period. You know, so that's always

73
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 5: the thing you look at just to make sure, hey,

74
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 5: do we need to put a cap on you know,

75
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 5: the amount of gyuards he's throwing, the amount of total

76
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,679
Speaker 5: throws he's making him practice. Those are all things that

77
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 5: are discussed, you know, internally with us, with the medical

78
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 5: staff and us as coaches, And right now I think

79
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 5: we're in a good spot in terms of, you know,

80
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 5: the making the width of the field throws, length of

81
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 5: the field throws, just making sure our volume number is

82
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 5: an appropriate number to make sure, you know, we continue

83
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 5: to ramp him up in a positive fashion.

84
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 9: Isn't it something that he has to develop absolute confident

85
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 9: happens in his arm to be able to just rip

86
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 9: it as he done that yet where he is just

87
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 9: really full on trying to attempt.

88
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 6: This ball that he can't.

89
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 5: No, that's a good question, and I don't want to

90
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 5: speak for him obviously. I think that's something that that

91
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 5: he can attest to you. But you know, from my

92
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 5: experience and and just from from coaching the position, I

93
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 5: think it's a lot of the position in general is

94
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 5: about confidence, you know, and and going out and doing

95
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 5: it and rept it and hey making a mistake or

96
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 5: or making a good play and learning from those things

97
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 5: and growing from those things. So I think part of

98
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 5: that is is always just the confidence of going out,

99
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 5: Hey can I, uh, can I fit this into this window?

100
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 5: And practice and that's where you learn can I do

101
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 5: it in the game? You know, so you do want

102
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 5: to obviously play practice like a game and make a

103
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 5: game like but also you know you're gonna you're gonna

104
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 5: try to do some things to see, hey can I

105
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 5: do that in the game. So it's not the first time,

106
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 5: and I think that's the that's the feel. He's he's

107
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 5: continued to get within what.

108
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 6: We're doing systematically.

109
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: He's not there yet to to that.

110
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 5: No, I I haven't seen him. I haven't seen him

111
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 5: have any issues in terms of not being one hundred.

112
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 6: Percent or anything like that.

113
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,119
Speaker 5: I think I think he's doing a very good job.

114
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 5: It seems like he's feeling well throwing the football. I'm

115
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 5: more talking about, uh, you know, just hey, with the

116
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 5: different stuff we're doing, you know, just making sure that feel.

117
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 6: Of uh, you know, disc throw, uh, driving it.

118
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 5: Into this window and those those types of things. I

119
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 5: don't see any any issue.

120
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 6: With any type of arm stuff right now. And again,

121
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 6: you know, let's say it's a it's a thing that's

122
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 6: gonna continue.

123
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 5: You know, you don't wanna you don't want to mess

124
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 5: and mess around with a quarterback shoalder.

125
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 6: Elbow or anything like that. You know, that's how you

126
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 6: know they they.

127
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: Do their job.

128
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 5: So you know, we're gonna continue to be smart with

129
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 5: them and continue to evaluate day by day to make

130
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 5: sure we're doing great things.

131
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 3: How do you feel about Kevin calling plays?

132
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 10: Uh?

133
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 5: Look, at the end of the day, you know from

134
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 5: from day one, you know, uh, in this process of

135
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 5: interviewing and all that, Kevin was very up and run and.

136
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 6: Honest about everything.

137
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 5: And you know you don't always get that, you know,

138
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 5: in the in the league, and he was very very

139
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 5: upfront and and uh so you know I knew it

140
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 5: going in that there there was getting a process to

141
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 5: go through. And at the end of the day, I

142
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 5: want to win football games and and Kevin's a fantastic

143
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 5: play color and I feel good about where we're at.

144
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,239
Speaker 3: Did you make that decision in the interview?

145
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 6: No?

146
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 5: No, I think that was And again Kevin could kind

147
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 5: of a test. Uh you know where his decisions, Bob

148
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 5: process was and whereas you know, his state of mind

149
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 5: was in terms of making that decision. You know, I

150
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 5: just know there was very open communication with me from

151
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,599

155
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:54,120

Speaker 6: That's what you appreciate, you know, as a as an employee.

161
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 6: Uh uh you know, annual organization and uh.

162
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 5: I thought, you know, at the end of the day, Uh,

163
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 5: he decided to make that decision.

164
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 6: I'm one hundred percent behind him, and we'll rate a role.

165
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 11: So somebody before what chances for you in terms of.

166
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 6: Laboration and no, that's a good question.

167
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 5: I think, you know, it's it's a new a new

168
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 5: role for me to be perfectly us. You know, it'd

169
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 5: be the coordinator with the head coach calling it. I've

170
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 5: always worked for defensive guys, you know, so Uh, there

171
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 5: will be that feeling out process kind of as we go,

172
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 5: which is great to have these preseason games to get

173
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 5: that feel and get that rhythm. But it allows me

174
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 5: to definitely, you know, uh, be be as involved as

175
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 5: h as humanly possible with the game play and putting

176
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 5: the plan together for us, and then at the same

177
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 5: time also really be able to focus on, you know,

178
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 5: our our quarterback room and being prepared for meetings.

179
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 6: And and being prepared for when they step out on

180
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 6: the field. Uh, in practice and on game day.

181
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 3: On game day.

182
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 5: Uh, that's gonna be a Again, we'll kind of go

183
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 5: through the preseason. As of right now, I'm seeing me

184
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 5: being down on game days, but obviously that could change.

185
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 6: But right now we'll be down and we'll evaluate and

186
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 6: see how that goes.

187
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: To Ken just a couple more we talked to him, Mari.

188
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 2: You mentioned he likes how fast you want to run.

189
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 3: Thing is bringing some pop tempo to the system.

190
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 2: Is that something you really want to do.

191
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 5: I think the the stressed our players is like, let's

192
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 5: see how many plays we can run in a game

193
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 5: like we want to like we want to run plays.

194
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 5: The more opportunity to down the field, the more opportunity

195
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 5: you have to score points. That doesn't necessarily mean no

196
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 5: huddle either. That means, hey, when we are hubbly getting

197
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 5: down the huddle a great temple, give us as much

198
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 5: time at the line and run.

199
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 6: As made plays as possible.

200
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 10: Uh.

201
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 6: Doesn't mean mixing up the temple.

202
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 5: It could mean temple, but that also depends on the

203
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 5: game a little bit at times as well. So it's

204
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 5: gonna be uh, you know, one of those things where

205
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 5: we've always got that ability, uh, you know, to to

206
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 5: attack a defense in different ways. But you know, we

207
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 5: want to get up there and when we are huddling

208
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 5: and now the huddle with the great tempo, uh really

209
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 5: constantly be putting pressure on the defense with with us,

210
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 5: whether it's on the line huddle, whatever, whatever that may be.

211
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 5: You know, in the middle of the game two minute

212
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 5: and constantly be you know, putting that.

213
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 8: Pressure on the people have been here in camperon head

214
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 8: like Jerry out a little bit and.

215
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 4: Then he comes back and el Elijah, you.

216
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 6: Know, is out for for a little bit here.

217
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 8: Just what what type of challenge that present you as

218
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 8: you're trying to get this offense.

219
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 6: Going in time of postess Uh.

220
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 5: You know, I think at the end of the day,

221
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 5: it's it's it allows you to kind of see what

222
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 5: else you have and develop your roster. But as we

223
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 5: as we work these guys in, I think there's still

224
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 5: you know a lot of good time.

225
00:09:58,640 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 6: And they're veteran guys.

226
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,599
Speaker 5: You know, they've got great experience and great feel, so

227
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 5: you know, we'll just constantly work them in as we

228
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 5: go and that's that's part of the game. I mean,

229
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 5: you saw that with this team last year, you know,

230
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 5: and and what they h well, what we had to

231
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 5: go through last year as as an organization as a team,

232
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 5: and guys have to step up and be ready to

233
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,959
Speaker 5: go when their numbers called. What kind of resource on

234
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 5: what kind of resource do you think Mike Brabile is

235
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 5: for your tight ends and also coaches who are working

236
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 5: with that. It's it's fantastic having him, uh with us,

237
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 5: you know, And it's great having him in the offensive room,

238
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 5: you know, really as a as a defensive coach who

239
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 5: really takes the time to learn your offense and learn

240
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,719
Speaker 5: your system and now can provide you insight into a

241
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 5: defenses within what you do systematically, is is awesome And

242
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 5: I think having him around has been great for us

243
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 5: early on and the different insight that he provides and

244
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 5: and he's not afraid to speak up, which is which

245
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 5: is also for you know, and so love having him around.

246
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 5: I think that's a huge resource for us, not only

247
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 5: as an offensive staff, but those an organization and you'll

248
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 5: just value his opinion a tremendous amount.

249
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: Flipping to the other side of the ball, it's defensive

250
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: coordinator Jim Schwartz who talks about focusing on improving every

251
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: day during training camp and using last year as a

252
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: stepping stone.

253
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 11: Mike Raver, I mean, I know a couple of years back,

254
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 11: you know, you were in kind of a similar role

255
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 11: as he's been and as a consultant and outs.

256
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 3: What's it been like kind of interacting with him.

257
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 12: Well, I have a background with Frabes from number one

258
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 12: before but also the last or two years in Tennessee,

259
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 12: so I was sort of a second set of eyes

260
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 12: for him and a sounding board for him and a

261
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 12: fill gaps where a needed guy. And you know, Rapes

262
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 12: can do all those things. You know, anytime you're adding

263
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 12: good coaches to your staff. He spent most of his

264
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 12: time on offense and special teams right now, but it's

265
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 12: just a good resource for us. He'll he'll, he'll make

266
00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 12: a major contribution to our team.

267
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 8: Jim yesterdays the Darius use the phrase and finished business

268
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 8: several times.

269
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 3: Is that kind of theme has been this year.

270
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 2: For you guys, I don't know.

271
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 12: I mean, like maybe a little bit in the off season,

272
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 12: but once we get into training camp, our theme every

273
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 12: day is just is embrace that practice and improve and

274
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 12: try to keep our eyes on what's most important.

275
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,079
Speaker 2: Now.

276
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 12: We can't make up for anything last year right now

277
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 12: unless we attack each day and we you know, we

278
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 12: work out inconsistencies, We've improved our technique, we can improve

279
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 12: our teamwork, all those different things. So you know, further

280
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 12: on down the line, we'll have places for themes and

281
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 12: you know, things like that, but right now, it's just

282
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,199
Speaker 12: a work. You know, go to work every day and

283
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 12: and try to improve.

284
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 13: Do you have do you have a number a number

285
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 13: of guys that have come into the season talking about

286
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 13: double digit sacks? I know you guys kind of balance sacks, pressures,

287
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 13: things like that. Were you happy with the sack production

288
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 13: across that defensive line last year?

289
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: I don't know.

290
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 12: There's always things we can improve, but uh, you know again,

291
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 12: and I'll sort.

292
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 2: Of refer to the same thing, like.

293
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 12: The the only thing we can really work on right

294
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 12: now is working our craft and our technique and our

295
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 12: knowledge at the scheme and you know, all those things

296
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 12: and if we do a good job of those things,

297
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 12: then maybe we can be talking about sack totals or

298
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 12: anything else at the end of the season. I sort

299
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 12: of try to keep my eyes on right, so what's

300
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 12: right in front of us right now?

301
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 6: The things was saying Jim that, uh, he was like.

302
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 13: One step away on several players from finishing to play.

303
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 6: So what does how does he get at that of

304
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 6: this year?

305
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, I finishing is is a big thing.

306
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 12: And you know, I sort of think back it was

307
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 12: a home game. I can't remember, man, he woke up

308
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 12: with just a stiff back, and the trainers like he's

309
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 12: not gonna play today.

310
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: He played.

311
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 12: He missed I think like two or three sacks in

312
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 12: that game, and that was more physical in in that way.

313
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 12: But you know, I and I think this has gone

314
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 12: a lot, you know, as as analytics have gone, and

315
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 12: we saw with Miles last year a lot of times

316
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 12: you can win pass rushes and you can force an incompletion,

317
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 12: but you really don't get credit for it in the

318
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 12: stat book when it comes to sacks and things like that.

319
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: And then we we're just.

320
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 12: Trying to to have the uh, the defense operate efficiently,

321
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 12: get off the field. You know, you guys will put

322
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 12: me on a on a soapbox, but I still don't

323
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 12: understand how if if uh you force a quarterback into

324
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 12: uh intentional grounding, that's not a sack. It should count

325
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 12: as a sack because he avoided the sack and it's

326
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 12: a spot foul. But anyway, we put a big emphasis

327
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 12: on finishing, and you know, obviously there's things at the end,

328
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 12: but I was happy and and I've continued to be

329
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 12: happy with the pressure that uh, our whole defensive line,

330
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 12: not just ad Areus puts on the quarterback who is

331
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 12: benefiting like more reps with talents and now well it's

332
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 12: not just d line. I mean, we we have a

333
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 12: lot of guys that are benefiting from a lot of

334
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 12: reps and some guys that that need to take a

335
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 12: little better advantage of some of the opportunities. But we've

336
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 12: been we've been practicing most of the last week obviously

337
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 12: without Dalvin but also without Shelby, so two of our

338
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 12: major contributors last year. It just opens up a lot more,

339
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 12: you know, guys like Michael Hall, guys like Juwan Briggs,

340
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 12: guys like Sam Kamar. Sam Kamara has had a really

341
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 12: good camp he's playing pretty much full time inside after

342
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 12: being a swing guy and mainly concentrating on end last year.

343
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 2: But he's he's he's been.

344
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 12: He's been very impressive so far and really taking advantage

345
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 12: of a lot of those plays. And you know, you

346
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 12: guys know the way we rotate our defensive lineman, we're

347
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 12: gonna need everybody up there and over the course of

348
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 12: the year, so important for all those guys. You know,

349
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 12: it doesn't matter who it is, Siaki Juwan, Mike Hall, Sam,

350
00:15:55,560 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 12: you know, all those guys have have have benefited from

351
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 12: the extra reps.

352
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: Last year, you.

353
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 14: Talked about Kok it's time for him to be on

354
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 14: the field a hundred percent of the time.

355
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 6: Or something like that. Do you feel that he's ready

356
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 6: for that this year?

357
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 15: Do you plan to have him out there pretty much

358
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 15: all the time?

359
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's taken strides that way.

360
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 12: I would say this like, you know, trying to h

361
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 12: and you know, you don't wanna say load management, but

362
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 12: I don't know if there's another word for it, But

363
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 12: you know, stuff like that is on our minds, whether

364
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 12: it comes to all our position players. We were able

365
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 12: to rotate some corners through last year, able to.

366
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: Rotate defensive linemen.

367
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 12: We were rotating linebackers mainly because of an injury situation

368
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 12: where Ay Walkin and Sioni last year, but it was

369
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 12: able to benefit a lot of guys as we went further.

370
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 12: He got a little taste of it last year, being

371
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 12: on the field for for Dime and for some of

372
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 12: the packages we've extended that he's at a He's at

373
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 12: a completely.

374
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: Different spot right now.

375
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 12: Injury nowithstanding, he's at a completely different spot now compared

376
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 12: to twin three, his knowledge of the scheme. He's put

377
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 12: a really good year under his belt, and I think

378
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 12: he's primed for a really good season.

379
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 6: You guys are gonna be facing.

380
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 10: This year, do you feel like there will be more

381
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 10: of an emphasis on prussures than maybe maybe people aren't

382
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 10: going to necessarily that the set how much what they

383
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 10: did in the past, just because guys are getting away

384
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 10: from those.

385
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean that can work both ways, because you

386
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 12: can get a a mobile quarterback scramble and he can

387
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 12: start his scramble, get out of the pocket and you

388
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 12: tackle him for a game of zero or minus one

389
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 12: and it's a sack.

390
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: Was it really a sack? And I don't know?

391
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 12: So you know, so the numbers sort of probably bear out,

392
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 12: but you know, we're used to dealing with mobile quarterbacks.

393
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 12: You know, we've added a couple in our division with

394
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 12: Pittsburgh w you know, with.

395
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 2: With Russell m with Fields.

396
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 12: Baltimore's always you know, had that guy, and when Burrow

397
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 12: has been at his best, he's had really good mobility.

398
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 12: I know he's had some injuries over the last couple

399
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 12: of years. Maybe that changes their philosophy a little bit,

400
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 12: but you know, it's something that's on our radar every

401
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 12: every week, you know, and again, like a quarterback scramble

402
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 12: and gaining a first down, you know what's the difference

403
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 12: in that as opposed to completing the ball?

404
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 2: It's all the same. It just spreads you a little bit.

405
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 12: Thinner defensively, puts more of an emphasis on your speed

406
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 12: and your discipline and your pass rush Hill.

407
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 4: Has talked about feeling frustrated with the cap injury last

408
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 4: year and playing through it and just having to deal

409
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 4: with that, what are the expectations for him? And always

410
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 4: put on some muscle and things like that, but feeling

411
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 4: like he's finally healthy in.

412
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 12: His defense, Yeah, I mean, m maybe we're starting to

413
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 12: trend toward to too many people talking about last year.

414
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 12: But you know, Jan has really attacked the off season.

415
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,439
Speaker 12: He's got a lot of pride. He wasn't happy with

416
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 12: his performance last year, mainly because of an injury. Standpoint, right,

417
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,160
Speaker 12: his performance was good when he was on the field,

418
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 12: he just wasn't on the field long enough. So a

419
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 12: prideful guy like that, a veteran guy like that, has

420
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 12: really attacked the off season. He's tried to put himself

421
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 12: in better position to be able to last seventeen plus

422
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 12: games for us. And you know that's th that's an

423
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 12: important part.

424
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 15: It's just like number twenty five last Sea is a

425
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,239
Speaker 15: lot more active in this camp than it was all

426
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 15: of last season.

427
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 3: Like, where where's he at in in the second year.

428
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 2: At the team.

429
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 12: Well, you know, he was a a waiver claim at

430
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 12: the end, right, so we really didn't get a chance

431
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 12: to see this kind of stuff with him. You know,

432
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 12: and then once you get into the season, it's not

433
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 12: always competitive, right, You gotta lay off for the offense.

434
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 12: You know, when you're in a scout team period, your

435
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 12: job is to give a look. It's not necessarily to.

436
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 2: Make the play.

437
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 12: And you know you're trying to avoid collisions and things

438
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 12: like that. So the you know that there were times

439
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 12: that we saw some good things. I thought he put

440
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 12: some good snaps, uh, particularly late in the year when

441
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 12: we played a lot of guys in the SINCI game

442
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 12: at the end. But he's He's made a lot of strides,

443
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 12: missing all of training camp and come into a completely

444
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 12: different style. Takes a little while due to catch up.

445
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 12: But I like his mindset. I like his physical till

446
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 12: physical tools, and I think he's an exciting young player.

447
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 3: Take line.

448
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 6: Kind of taking advantage of those and adjusting to.

449
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 2: Camp.

450
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean all rookies are gonna have highs and lows,

451
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 12: and Mike's no different.

452
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 2: I mean, Juwan's the same way on the d line.

453
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 2: You know, they all do.

454
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 12: The thing I'd probably been most impressed with Mike is

455
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 12: his effort Like that.

456
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: That's a guy that goes hard all the time.

457
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 12: And I'll tell you what, he's got a great, great

458
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 12: vat leading away for him that way. In Quinton Jefferson,

459
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 12: if you watch it, if you guys wanna have some

460
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 12: fun in practice, watch Quinton Jefferson run to the ball.

461
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 12: You know, the guy's been in the league for a

462
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 12: long time, has done a lot of things, and he

463
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 12: really sets the tempo for those for the.

464
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 2: Whole group, but also for the young guys.

465
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 12: And it's great at you know, being able to see

466
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 12: that you know and and and might learning something new

467
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 12: every single day. But the thing I've been most proud

468
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 12: you know, a lot of times rookies they'll experience some

469
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 12: rough spots and you know, like their mind will slow

470
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 12: their body down. That hasn't happened to Mike, and I've

471
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 12: been proud of him that way.

472
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 7: But you mentioned Clinton and just what does he add

473
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 7: to that interior pass rush and how important is that

474
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 7: interior pass rush? Well, put things up for guys like

475
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 7: Miles and see on the outside.

476
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, there's a lot of things you can

477
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,400
Speaker 12: do to try to take outside pass rush away. There's

478
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,479
Speaker 12: a lot of different chips and things like that, but

479
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 12: you only got one center and you can slide one

480
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 12: way or the other. And you know, our ability to

481
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 12: win a one on one against the guard is really

482
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 12: really important to our pass rush.

483
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 2: And Quinton's a guy that can do that.

484
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 12: He's got really good speed, he's got really good hands.

485
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 12: He's a veteran player, and you know it's he's played

486
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 12: in some similar schemes, not one hundred percent the same.

487
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 12: So there are some things he's sort of still time

488
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,159
Speaker 12: on t ask and trying to learn. But you know,

489
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 12: we really appreciate a veteran player like that. If you

490
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 12: ever watch come come to practice, like he's out practice

491
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 12: twenty minutes early, he's out practiced like a half hour later.

492
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 12: You know, a lot of times I'm already showered, called

493
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 12: my wife and you know, in my office and I

494
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 12: look out and Quinton is still working on the field.

495
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 2: And a lot of times he has a young guy

496
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 2: with him when he's doing that.

497
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 12: That's extremely important to us, and I'm proud of him

498
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 12: for that.

499
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 1: Did you be help?

500
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 3: We want new facilities to work out.

501
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 2: How have you guys?

502
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 16: How you like that and take it to and how

503
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 16: of your guys have appreciated.

504
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 3: The the new facilities.

505
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,679
Speaker 12: Yeah, I th I think it's given us a big boost.

506
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 12: It's obviously a big commitment from the Haslums. It makes

507
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 12: it makes it.

508
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: There's a couple of things.

509
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 12: First, it makes us be able to use our indoor better.

510
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 12: Right when the weight room was taken up a third

511
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 12: of it or a quarter of it, it just put

512
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 12: us so tight it made it hard to really work

513
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 12: in there. This opens that up. So that's job number one.

514
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 12: But number two, I think it just it just gives

515
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 12: the players a boost. In nineteen ninety nine, I was

516
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 12: with the Titans and we had lived in trailers for

517
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 12: three years. The team had moved from Houston. I mean

518
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 12: literally double white trailers.

519
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:13,160
Speaker 16: That was our.

520
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 12: Facility, locker rooms, meeting rooms, everything else. The week before

521
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 12: the regular season, we moved into a brand new facility

522
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 12: and I can't tell you the emotional.

523
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 2: Lift it gave the players. They felt first class. It

524
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 2: just it was.

525
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 12: It was really a big booze for us. It will

526
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 12: go in that year as we made a Super Bowl run,

527
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 12: and I think this can do the same thing. You know,

528
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 12: when it's all said and done, one hundred pounds is

529
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 12: one hundred pounds, but you know it's it's Sean Hols did.

530
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: A great job.

531
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 12: That designers, all those guys did a great job with

532
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 12: making it player friendly, making it where I don't know,

533
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 12: like it sort of forces camaraderie. The walkthrough rooms are amazing,

534
00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 12: you know. I think it can give us a big,

535
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 12: a big boost in a lot of different ways. We're

536
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 12: trying to be as efficient teachers as we can. We're

537
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 12: trying to to to make the best use of our time.

538
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,880
Speaker 12: We don't want to waste players time. We don't want

539
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 12: to you know, be inefficient. Those walkthrough rooms, that weight room,

540
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 12: just just doals that up a little bit. So we

541
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 12: are a great, a great, a great Thanks to to

542
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,199
Speaker 12: Jimmy and d for making that commitment, because that that

543
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 12: was a major commitment for it and it's gonna make

544
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 12: a big it's gonna make a big impact in the season.

545
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: Up next, special teams coordinator Bubba Van Trone talks about

546
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: what he learned after watching the new kickoff rule implemented

547
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: during the Hall of Fame game.

548
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 17: Notes from Uh, yeah, it was pretty much what I expected.

549
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 17: I don't I don't anticipate a lot of I would

550
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 17: say variety and schemes showing up in the in these games.

551
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 17: A lot of young guys playing in that game as well.

552
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 17: So yeah, it was it was pretty much what I expected.

553
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 15: But do you see the possibility of a lot of

554
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 15: exotic creativity.

555
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 17: Yeah, and I think that I I think teams are

556
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 17: gonna or I think, you know, coaches, teams are gonna

557
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 17: save a lot of their schemes schematics for the regular season.

558
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 16: I don't think. I don't think you'll see.

559
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 17: A lot of variety in the preseason games from you too.

560
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 16: I don't think I'll show too much.

561
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 11: Isn't that a Is there a bit of risk there

562
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 11: to you know, come a debut and the regular season you.

563
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 16: Haven't You've gotten a lot.

564
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

565
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 17: And I think also like it depends on your personnel,

566
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 17: who you're who, who's playing in the game. I think

567
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 17: that you can get into using maybe some more like

568
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 17: like a little bit more complex in the scheme, if

569
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 17: you have guys that can execute it.

570
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:59,360
Speaker 16: If that makes sense. Yeah, I there.

571
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 17: I there's a lot of a lot of thought of

572
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 17: has gone into a lot of studying. We've gained a

573
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 17: lot of information from the first week and a half

574
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 17: of camp through the drill work that we've done with

575
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 17: the timing and the spacing. So just trying to I

576
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 17: would guess, I guess you would say apply it to

577
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 17: the next practice, Like yesterday, there are some things that

578
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 17: I saw, like in our practice period that I didn't love,

579
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 17: So gonna try a few.

580
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 16: Different things today.

581
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 17: So and especially and it helps whenever we're working in

582
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 17: pads to really get the feel for it, So we'll

583
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 17: be in pads today, We'll be working at today.

584
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 16: There yet, Yeah, Well, do you.

585
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 3: Want to whittle that down or could they? Could you

586
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 3: go through the season.

587
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 17: We just want to have we want to have we

588
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 17: want to have depth. We want everyone to understand the

589
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 17: play and how it's ran. Uh In in the event

590
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 17: that we would have to use one of the down

591
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 17: the line, guys that aren't at the top have to

592
00:26:59,040 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 17: get in there.

593
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 16: We want those guys that have experience.

594
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 17: So we're just trying to train as many guys as

595
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 17: possible at this point.

596
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 3: Did you on to.

597
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 2: Season opens?

598
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean I yeah, I would, I would think.

599
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, have you.

600
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 13: Seen anybody sort of embrace this opportunity? I mean, like

601
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 13: I hear name a lot guys like you play. Is

602
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 13: there anybody that stood out with this kickoff opportunity?

603
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,159
Speaker 17: I think the best thing with our team right now

604
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 17: with this play is that everyone is all hands on deck.

605
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 16: Everyone is willing to do anything else.

606
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 17: And that's that's all you can ask for is our

607
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 17: team has bought into this unique change of a play

608
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 17: that is gonna be able to impact games. That Like,

609
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 17: to me, that's the biggest thing for us is our

610
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 17: guys want we want to be a really.

611
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 16: Good football team.

612
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 17: So if we're gonna do that, like you're gonna be

613
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 17: willing to do whatever it takes for us to win.

614
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 17: So if that means playing on another special teams unit

615
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 17: or both, then that's what it's gonna have to take.

616
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 17: And I think to your to your question, yes everyone has.

617
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 8: With Dustin, you know, not trying to kick it out

618
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 8: of the end zone every time anymore.

619
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 6: What kind of adjustment is.

620
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 3: That for him to like have to really place this kick?

621
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 17: Yeah, I think that, you know, we're working out of

622
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 17: some different approaches with him, whether it be a a

623
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 17: three step, a five step, you know, just different different

624
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 17: ball placement. Yeah, so we're we're working a bunch of

625
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 17: different things. There wasn't a lot of times where I

626
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 17: asked him to bank touchbacks last year, but it is Look,

627
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 17: it is hard to kick in our stadium. There's a

628
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 17: lot of win that factors into it. So yeah, the placement,

629
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 17: the placement is definitely gonna be uh a big point

630
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 17: of emphasis for us.

631
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 4: When you guys talked, I guess about with the new rules,

632
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 4: like possibly players in the pre season games that maybe

633
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 4: wouldn't play in yours past, Like.

634
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 16: Yeah, to get them reps in.

635
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 4: That that you guys are thinking.

636
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 6: You're gonna use.

637
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 17: Yeah, I think that we're trying to gain as much

638
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 17: information in our practice settings. So if we're not playing

639
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 17: certain guys or certain guys are being stressed too much

640
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 17: on defense that wouldn't normally play as much, don't have

641
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 17: to play as many reps for me, just trying to

642
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 17: come to that, find that balance and go from there.

643
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 17: But yeah, you'll probably see some different people that haven't

644
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 17: really normally played as much in the preseason, especially as

645
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 17: we move along.

646
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 15: Justin Hardy came here as a two times Special Teams captain.

647
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 16: Yeah, what have you.

648
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: In your scheme?

649
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 17: So he's I mean, I've I've coached against him for

650
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 17: a number of years. Tough kid, hard worker, you know,

651
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 17: I would say he.

652
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 16: Is super competitive. I don't know if anybody watched.

653
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 17: The the the one on one drills we did back

654
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 17: at the Greenbrier, but he is. He does not like

655
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 17: to lose. He's been great for our eating rooms. He's vocal,

656
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 17: good communicator. I I'm really excited to have.

657
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 13: Him with a couple of alignment on the kickoff right,

658
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 13: the blacking, the return unit, and we had a couple of.

659
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 6: Big values out there, like what's what do you do?

660
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 6: You get the balance the benefit of Okay, I got

661
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 6: the bigger guy. Maybe it can black with a game

662
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 6: cutson versus you a little bit of space.

663
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 16: It might be comfort for for sure.

664
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 17: Yeah, and we're and some of the some of the

665
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,239
Speaker 17: things we're doing, you know, we we have guys out

666
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 17: there to give a look, maybe not necessarily that they're

667
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 17: gonna be a part of that unit, things like that.

668
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 17: But yeah, whenever you're I mean, whenever you're trying to

669
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 17: I guess you put put pieces to the puzzle, you all,

670
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 17: you're always taking into account the skill set of that player. Right,

671
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 17: Ideally you don't want to have a guy that's not

672
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 17: good in space in space, But unfortunately for them, the

673
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 17: Kicking game is.

674
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 16: About playing in space a lot of it is.

675
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 17: So, yeah, we're just trying to figure out who to

676
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 17: play and where and who can play the techniques.

677
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 8: So going back to just in for a second, Yeah,

678
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 8: kicking in the stadium, because of the challenges that presents,

679
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 8: how does he.

680
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 4: Prepare for the kick off with those like I guess

681
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 4: with all.

682
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 17: The elements and everything, Yeah, I s I feel like

683
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 17: it's pretty windy here in practice too, s especially with

684
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 17: all the all the things that have gone down and

685
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 17: the winds coming through. So they I he'll be able

686
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 17: to adjust those guys. I mean, I hope he can adjust.

687
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 15: At the Greenbrier, Kevin said, you and he discussed the

688
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 15: possibility of us kick off specialists, and you decided not

689
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 15: to go ahead with it.

690
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 16: So explain what I mean. Each rot to me, each

691
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 16: roster spot's pretty valuable.

692
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 17: Look, we have a professional kicker that's here to kick,

693
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 17: so I don't know if we need to roster two

694
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 17: of them and there and there.

695
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 3: In uh training a defensive.

696
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 17: Player, Oh, training a d Oh you're saying training a

697
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 17: defensive players? Yeah, I mean for me the rea I

698
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 17: mean obviously.

699
00:31:58,720 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 16: If like.

700
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 17: Kickers kick right, kickers kick and position players play their position,

701
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 17: there's a lot more stress and strain on your body

702
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 17: the kicking presents than not. To me, like like like

703
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 17: last year we end up playing it that dusn't gets

704
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 17: nicked up.

705
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 16: Corey comes in.

706
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 17: He doesn't normally kick off, you know, that's what his

707
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 17: quad tightened up. So like you don't wanna like if

708
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 17: you don't kick all the time, it's a it's a

709
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 17: foreign movement to your body that you're not used to.

710
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 17: It'd be like going out like say you haven't bench pressed, right,

711
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 17: and like like if you haven't bench pressed in like

712
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 17: five years and you've got bench press, you're gonna be sore.

713
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 3: But if you train them to do it.

714
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 17: But they're not, yeah, and then and in the same sense, yeah,

715
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 17: they're they're they're not at the end.

716
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 16: Of the day, they're not professional kickers. That's that.

717
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 17: That would be my biggest argument, I think, And I

718
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,479
Speaker 17: w I wouldn't wanna risk you know, like the Anthony

719
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 17: Bell kicking off because I need him and other I

720
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 17: n I need him to play for me.

721
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 16: I need him to play for me. That I that's

722
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 16: that's my personal And.

723
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I'll probably just stop talking.

724
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 10: Like the experiential learning learns and and how much do

725
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 10: you wish as a player you would have had something

726
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 10: like that would stand.

727
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 4: Up and learn what?

728
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 17: Yeah, okay, uh, Jimmy, Jimmy and d did a incredible job.

729
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 16: With our complex.

730
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 17: Our guys are very fortunate for the resource they have

731
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 17: to to use and to prepare with. I mean, yeah,

732
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 17: it's it's a great learn it's a great way to

733
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 17: teach and a great way to learn. So yeah, I

734
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 17: W I would have loved to have had something like that.

735
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 13: Is it vastly different now or is it for a

736
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 13: player with all the technology you know, everything.

737
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 16: Else that company. It's a lot, it's a lot different.

738
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 16: It's a lot different.

739
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 17: I mean, our guys are being every every movement they make,

740
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 17: they're being tracked at practice, you know, yardage, speeds and recovery.

741
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 2: Like we didn't have any of that.

742
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 17: It was just go play, you know, two a day's

743
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 17: full pads and then I'll like, I'll joke with our players,

744
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 17: you know, like when we actually used to play real football,

745
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,240
Speaker 17: Like we actually practiced twice a day in full pads.

746
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 17: Like I couldn't even imagine having too full padded.

747
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 2: Practices one day now.

748
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 16: Like guys would look at you like you're crazy. Say

749
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 16: that again, it was so normal.

750
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 6: Job.

751
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 17: Yeah, I would say this, Like I'm a firm believer

752
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 17: in like hard work, hard work, and you your body

753
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 17: like builds a callous when you work and you practice

754
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 17: hard and long. I think that there's something to be

755
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 17: said about how you practice. And I think that obviously

756
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 17: you're you building in your conditioning as well, like you

757
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 17: wanna you don't just wanna get out of practice healthy,

758
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 17: like you like, you're trying to get ready for the season.

759
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 17: You're trying to put your team in a position to

760
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 17: play at a high level late in the game. You know,

761
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 17: That's that's how the the best teams are the teams

762
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 17: that can play the hardest, the longest, and the and

763
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 17: typically those are the teams that practice the hardest. Not

764
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 17: necessarily the longest, but practice the hardest.

765
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 8: Are any of.

766
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 17: The golf simulator and you guys anything that what are

767
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 17: those those different things not super football oriented to.

768
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 4: For your group?

769
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 17: Uh sh Schwartz was given h our specialist the hard

770
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 17: time about being in the golf simulator. Yeah, I think

771
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 17: I think all those things are great. I think that

772
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,319
Speaker 17: was a great way, uh you know, the Greenbrier was

773
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 17: great for us to be like around each other and

774
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 17: just to be almost like forced to hang out with

775
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,879
Speaker 17: one another. A number of guys said they have never

776
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 17: spent that much time with their teammates. You know, I

777
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 17: thought that that was obviously that's a reason why we

778
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 17: like going down there. So and I think that you know,

779
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 17: the things like that around the building when when you're

780
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 17: when there's time off or.

781
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 16: Good to have any idea helped out. I hope soon.

782
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 17: You know, he's working hard and he's looked good in

783
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 17: everything I've seen him do, so hopefully it's not too

784
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 17: too much longer.

785
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 16: And he liked like.

786
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 17: Returners so at the river, Yeah, the field of the

787
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 17: cheat or how to give you ten to me?

788
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 4: How did you like that?

789
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 16: Yeah?

790
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 17: I mean he's been he's been really with me since

791
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 17: twenty eighteen.

792
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,439
Speaker 16: Very good communicator.

793
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,720
Speaker 17: He started out, he he didn't get it right away,

794
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 17: so he there was a big learning curve.

795
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 16: You know.

796
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 17: He had a couple of months early in early in

797
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,879
Speaker 17: the preseason his rookie year. He kept working at it,

798
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 17: had an opportunity middle middle of his rookie season, and

799
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 17: then came along and ended up earning that job and

800
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 17: had a lot of production for us. But really good,

801
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 17: really good hard worker that is just trying to help

802
00:36:58,760 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 17: those guys.

803
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 16: Know and educate them on on the position.

804
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: Really last up today, head coach Kevin Stefanski talks about

805
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 1: finding new ways to coach players and putting together the

806
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: perfect training camp practice.

807
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 2: What good question? I don't know, Okay, very good?

808
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 14: Did your expert other people think you'll be able to

809
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 14: stay outside any No such thing as an expert weather

810
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 14: person can't predict the weather, so there may be something

811
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 14: popping through, but it'll be quick.

812
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 11: Impressed about Jerry on his first AIG, you know, kind

813
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 11: of full extation, obvious.

814
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you said it.

815
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,959
Speaker 14: Dan made some plays, ran a real nice choice route

816
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 14: early practice, ran that that vertical play at the end

817
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,360
Speaker 14: of practice, so kind of showing his versatility as a

818
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 14: route runner. But it's early, so getting him there and

819
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 14: getting him introduced to different concepts at full speed.

820
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 12: Kevin, I know it's been a few years now, but

821
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 12: three preaching season games instead of for how does that

822
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 12: change the way you approach these games?

823
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 14: You know, I feels like we've had this, uh, the

824
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 14: rhythm of these games.

825
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 2: UH.

826
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 14: And and we feel strongly about the plan of how

827
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 14: we ramped to the season and getting ready for week one.

828
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 17: UH.

829
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 14: Last year was a little bit different cause you had

830
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 14: that that preseason game with the Jets down there and Canton,

831
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 14: so we work through that, but we we feel pretty

832
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 14: good about how we ramp our team up for a

833
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 14: week one of the season, UH, and then in the

834
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,319
Speaker 14: meantime get them ready for some games where we hope

835
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 14: that they can go show what they can do.

836
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 2: On the field, not think a lot, and and.

837
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 14: Really we utilize those as great uh tools for evaluation

838
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:35,280
Speaker 14: more than anything.

839
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,240
Speaker 10: Were there a chance to to see your experiential learning

840
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 10: rooms today. So just how do you think those guys

841
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 10: will be able to pick things up better on those rooms?

842
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 14: Yeah, I think it's when you're trying to teach, Mary

843
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 14: Kay you s you so often hear us about tea

844
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 14: talk about teaching and and learning, and we just feel

845
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 14: that that's a great classroom, uh for the guys to

846
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 14: to have a interactive meeting, if you will. And you

847
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 14: saw it's a beautiful facility. Those rooms in particular, we're

848
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 14: getting to know them, you know. There's so many things

849
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 14: that we can do in there. We're really scratching the surface.

850
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 14: But an opportunity to not just sit in the old

851
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 14: stale classrooms of yesteryear, where you can now go in

852
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 14: there and and and really show the guys that an

853
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 14: audio visual that gets there really captures their attention. So

854
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 14: the guys have responded really well to it. But we

855
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 14: are still as a staff figuring out all the different

856
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 14: things that we can utilize with those rooms in particular

857
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:39,479
Speaker 14: who is using not me, camp not me. It's it's

858
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 14: closest to my office. I did not request that. I

859
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 14: have not been in there, I promise. I think the

860
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 14: specialists kind of have that room on lockdown right now.

861
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,799
Speaker 18: Kevin, as you guys kind of work for who's going

862
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 18: to play in the preseason possibly and win. How much

863
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 18: is the new kickoff roles factoring into that? And is

864
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 18: there a chance like you're gonna play some guys that

865
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 18: maybe you wouldn't have a year ago.

866
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 14: Because I don't think that will factor into the decisions Ashley.

867
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 14: We'll obviously get a look at it on Saturday night

868
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 14: down at our place. We'll get some really good looks

869
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 14: at it versus the vikings here on our practice fields,

870
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 14: but that won't factor into the decision necessarily.

871
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 6: We saw Jordans a walk off yesterday.

872
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 14: He's not back today. He's dealing with an injury, but

873
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 14: we'll get him out there, Uh soon.

874
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,360
Speaker 3: Are you concerned about deep that linebacker at least for

875
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 3: the on the short term?

876
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 14: Yeah, obviously, when you have injuries to our three guys

877
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 14: like you do, those are things that you look at

878
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 14: and you figure out, Uh, do we need to bring

879
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 14: somebody in or sort those are things we're working through.

880
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 10: Do you anticipate anyone back today like Shelby or Jap.

881
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:43,879
Speaker 14: Or not just yet, but all those guys that are

882
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 14: making great progress back to the classume for a second.

883
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 3: You've been in this league long enough.

884
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 2: Do you have to.

885
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 15: Find new ways to kind of teach these guys, especially

886
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:51,959
Speaker 15: the youngers.

887
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:52,439
Speaker 2: We do.

888
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 14: It's something that we spent a lot of time as

889
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 14: a staff in the off season.

890
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 2: We had a lot of meetings just talking.

891
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 14: About best practices and one of the things we talked

892
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,880
Speaker 14: about and we've read some or had some studies presented

893
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 14: to us just in terms of the best way to

894
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,359
Speaker 14: reach guys in this generation, if you will, We talked

895
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 14: about the art of note taking, and maybe that's a

896
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 14: loss to art and in those rooms, as you see,

897
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 14: you're not going to sit there at a desk and

898
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 14: take traditional notes, but you're going to be more interactive

899
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 14: with your teacher, with your coach in this case. So

900
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 14: we're trying to find that balance of there's a lot

901
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 14: of information that we need to download into our players,

902
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 14: what's the best method to do that?

903
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 2: And I think these are a great start towards that.

904
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 8: Yeah, Is there anything any dange of information overload for

905
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,240
Speaker 8: you and the coaches with all this stuff?

906
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 2: Absolutely? Yeah, that's certainly.

907
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 14: We have a finite amount of space in our brains,

908
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 14: a reminder of coaches of that oftentimes, and so we.

909
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 2: Can't overload ourselves.

910
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 14: We can't overload our players because we're just talking about

911
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 14: playing fast hard to play fast when you're thinking, so

912
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 14: we do also as you present that information to the players.

913
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 14: Part of the nice part of this tool we have

914
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 14: now is how it goes to them is maybe easier

915
00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 14: for them to understand than traditional sit down lecture classroom.

916
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 14: So uh, but that doesn't change the fact that, n

917
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 14: you can't just overload them with information.

918
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 2: I think that's a recipe to play really slow.

919
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 5: Kevin, Ken talk about just trying to figure out the preseason,

920
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 5: like what his world kind of looks like on game day?

921
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 3: What do you envisioned as well?

922
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 6: Look, you might kind of support you as a partners.

923
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 14: Yeah, Ken and I have talked about whether he's upstairs

924
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 14: or downstairs, might work through that in the in these

925
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 14: three games, initially thinking that we'll he'll start down, but

926
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 14: he'll have a huge influence, particularly on game day with

927
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,760
Speaker 14: me and the offense and in terms of what we're calling,

928
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 14: how we're calling it, when we're calling it UH. And

929
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 14: then the ability to sit and talk to the quarterbacks

930
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 14: face to face UH if he's down, but have great

931
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 14: FaceTime with those guys, and then interact with all the

932
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 14: coaches throughout the the UH times that our defense is up.

933
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 2: I think he can. He can do a really nice

934
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 2: job there as well.

935
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 13: Is that the choice between up and down, whether to

936
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,080
Speaker 13: be face to face with your quarterbacks or get a

937
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 13: bird's eye view that maybe.

938
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 3: He's used to.

939
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 14: It's we've talked to you really could do it either way.

940
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 14: We're comfortable doing it either way. I want to work

941
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,439
Speaker 14: through it, see what he's most comfortable with. We feel

942
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 14: really good about the coaches that are upstairs. If Ken

943
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 14: does think that downstairs is best, if we decide that

944
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 14: that's best, we feel that we have some coaches upstairs

945
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 14: that can be that bird's eye view.

946
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 2: Like you mentioned, every time I look up.

947
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,879
Speaker 10: I see Matt Landers making a big play out there.

948
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 10: What have you thought of Matt and what kind of

949
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 10: a does.

950
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:26,919
Speaker 18: He bring the breath?

951
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,320
Speaker 14: I think you're right, Mary, Kay's made some big plays.

952
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 14: He made plays down the field, he's gotten behind the defense.

953
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 14: I think he has a good understanding of what we're doing.

954
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 14: So he's in the right place at the right time.

955
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,800
Speaker 14: So excited about him to continue to make some steps.

956
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 14: And these preseason games will be big for guys like

957
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 14: Matt show what they can do. You know, in a

958
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 14: a setting like it's going to be down there on

959
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:48,240
Speaker 14: Saturday night.

960
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 6: Importance to throwing downfield, even if you don't hit them

961
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 6: alls for just how the defense has to respect there.

962
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 2: I think.

963
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,400
Speaker 14: So you know, what happens in training camp especially or

964
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 14: in practice especially defense is you don't have the same

965
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 14: what's the word I'm looking for, same chance. If you

966
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 14: get beat deep in a practice, it's not going up

967
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:10,359
Speaker 14: on the scoreboard, right, So you may be a little

968
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 14: bit more aggressive in practice, at least initially, so you

969
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 14: can tend at times on defense to play aggressive certainly

970
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,839
Speaker 14: known that getting beat is not gonna be.

971
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 2: Six points per se.

972
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 14: So then as an offense, the offense thinks about taking

973
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 14: a shot on that in that type of setting, and

974
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 14: to back the corners off. So that happens in game

975
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 14: as well. I think early in the game sometimes you

976
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 14: have corners that and and safeties and linebackers that maybe

977
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,400
Speaker 14: play tighter to the line of scrimmage or jump routes

978
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,840
Speaker 14: if you have a tendency to throw short early in

979
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 14: a game. So that's a conversation where you talk about

980
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,280
Speaker 14: do we need to take the top off early to show.

981
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:44,319
Speaker 2: Them that we're willing to do that.

982
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,240
Speaker 14: If you have a individual route to a receiver outside,

983
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 14: do you show them early that we're gonna go deep.

984
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 14: So those are all things that we talk about. It's

985
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 14: really based on the defense you're playing that week.

986
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 10: How has dtr looked for you and how much how

987
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 10: eager are you to see the competition sort of between

988
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 10: him and Tyler he hit it.

989
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:01,360
Speaker 2: In these games.

990
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 14: I think it's a great room. I'm really excited about

991
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 14: those guys. I think they're pushing each other. Like you mentioned,

992
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 14: Mary Kay, these games are are are irreplaceable reps for

993
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 14: these guys. So I'm excited for them and it's opportunity

994
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 14: for them to compete.

995
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,479
Speaker 10: Kevin morseyt here just just specifically as has he really

996
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 10: come along.

997
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 2: Since he's done a nice job. We mentioned it the

998
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 2: other day, Mary Kay. I think in year one you

999
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 2: saw him come along.

1000
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 14: I think you're seeing a similar jump from year one

1001
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 14: to year two, and that comes with being comfortable in

1002
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 14: the system. Obviously his health that has been a factor

1003
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:34,879
Speaker 14: for him, so it to bounce back and feel really good.

1004
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 2: I think that factors into it as well.

1005
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 13: We're seeing a lot of Martin Emerson against Amary Koper

1006
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 13: out there. How have you seen those two kind of

1007
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 13: embrace that matchup and what does that do, especially for

1008
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 13: Martin to go against.

1009
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:44,399
Speaker 2: Him every day.

1010
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 14: Yeah, good versus good is always beneficial to both sides.

1011
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:50,399
Speaker 14: And I've seen some great reps. I saw a great

1012
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 14: rep yesterday with Jerry on the outside with MJ. MJ

1013
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,399
Speaker 14: covered him really well. I shot MJ at text after

1014
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 14: I was watching it. You know, it was outstanding. So

1015
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 14: he pushes the receivers, the receivers push him, and it

1016
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 14: only makes you better, not just than Hardy.

1017
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 3: Was a receiver at Illinois. Wondering as you tried to

1018
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 3: remind coaches of that.

1019
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,839
Speaker 2: Hasn't reminded me of that just yet. But I'll i'll,

1020
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:11,319
Speaker 2: I'll go.

1021
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,799
Speaker 15: I'll remind him an exotic plays on special teams and you, hey,

1022
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 15: we can.

1023
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 2: Draw them all up.

1024
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 3: Out they're making some plays this training camp.

1025
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 14: What have you seen from him and what are you

1026
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 14: looking for as.

1027
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 2: He's done a nice job.

1028
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 14: I think we've talked about Dave the other day just

1029
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 14: there quarterbacks like throwing to him. He's dependable, they know

1030
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 14: where he's gonna be. He's got good hands. Uh So

1031
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:36,360
Speaker 14: there's concepts that when you're running them with players and

1032
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 14: you have a guy with a high football IQ, you

1033
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 14: feel confident letting letting go of the ball because you

1034
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,439
Speaker 14: and h you and the receiver a kind of seeing

1035
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 14: it the same way. I think that I thinks that's

1036
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 14: how the quarterbacks see it with Dave.

1037
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 8: How do you view the run game right now? As

1038
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 8: far as just its status, it's you haven't had many

1039
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 8: padded practices, you're not tackling.

1040
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:55,880
Speaker 6: To the ground and things like that.

1041
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 8: Just what are your impressions and thought supports in run games?

1042
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,319
Speaker 14: Yeah, I think it's like all aspects of our game,

1043
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 14: it's a work in progress. Everything we're doing is getting

1044
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 14: ready for a week one of the season. I think

1045
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 14: you can cover a lot of ground without being in pads.

1046
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 14: So all the walkthroughs that we've had going back to

1047
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 14: the spring, all those team periods that they all count equally. Obviously,

1048
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:19,959
Speaker 14: get the pads on and you get to move around

1049
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 14: a little bit, but we don't. We're not going live

1050
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 14: here and we're not tackling to the ground. We haven't

1051
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 14: done that in my time here, so I don't know

1052
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 14: that that's a necessary thing to have run game success.

1053
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,200
Speaker 1: That does it for day nine of training camp. We're

1054
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,400
