How you been man, I'm doing good?

So go a whole 65 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: lot going on going on these times? You are how 66 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: much football? Are you able to still watch? You still 67 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: catch it up and seeing all the games? Yeah? Yeah, 68 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: I've watched the games and I got that all twenty 69 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: two deal where you can you know, you can look 70 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: at the games a little more technical technical than just 71 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: watching on TV. So you know, it's it's funny because 72 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: I tell people all the time, like when you like, 73 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: when I retired, you started watching the game as as 74 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: we did in the film room. So you know, you 75 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: go to like a place and the game is on 76 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: and people are yelling like, oh he that he that 77 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: guy's pull to have that guy. That's what I said, Guys, listen, 78 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: all right, he's supposed to dropping the flask. That's not 79 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: that's not his guy. So if you still have that 80 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: same mindset or you're breaking film down, yeah, well I 81 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: mean it's like, yeah, I watched the players and what 82 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: they're doing, you know. And and most people are watching 83 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: the ball, you know. So that's the difference. Y yeah, 84 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: and uh watching the ball. And you know me, I'm 85 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: watching guys on the sideline like you know, turnover or 86 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: something like that. So I'm watching body language and what 87 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: so when people are talking about, hey, this, these these 88 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: guys are gonna come back and approach the field and 89 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: do this and do that, and I said, let me, 90 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: let me look at the silos. Let me see who's 91 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: piste off that they just gotta turn on. Let me 92 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: see who's piste off and trying to get the offense 93 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: or the defense back into the game. And that's how 94 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: I just I started to determine, um, you know what, 95 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: how that team is built well, that's for sure. And 96 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: then especially nowadays where there's nobody in there's no crowd 97 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: to keep you going or get you excited or get 98 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: your so that you really have to all. You know, 99 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: we always talked about you know, doing it together and 100 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: and that, but you really do nowadays with no cry, 101 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 1: nobody in stands, so there's nobody to tap you up, 102 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: that's for sure. So the enthusiasm is gonna be really 103 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: honest yeah, and you know, I said just that because 104 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: this year is different than it's been in any other year, 105 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: having no off season, and I want to I want 106 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: to take it back to not having off season and 107 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: coming in like a guy like myself in two thousand 108 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: five and I got drafted by the charges. Um. I 109 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: still tell a funny story that when I came in, 110 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: I couldn't catch up on a playbook. The playbook was 111 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: this thick, and I didn't know what the hell I 112 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: was doing. I was just flying around out there. And uh, 113 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: I didn't have all season with the team. So I 114 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: came on the field and I'm flying around and going 115 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: all the wrong directions. I couldn't line up right. And 116 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: you guys, meaning you, uh the coach mcgondo, but coach 117 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: Monoski all you guys brought me into a room after 118 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: practice and I'll never get the conversation. And these you 119 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: guys told me that you're gonna line me up, but 120 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: after that, we want you to see ball, go ball, 121 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: And like that's that's the terminology that I love to 122 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: use nowadays. Yeah, well, I mean some some people get 123 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: too technical. That's pretty it's it's pretty simple game. And 124 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: that teaching wives really is. You know, I don't know 125 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 1: what to do and how to do it and then 126 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: do it with a effort. You know that's I mean, 127 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: you know, I think you gotta get it down the 128 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: basics and then you gotta be like guys, well guys 129 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: like you. And I didn't do that with everybody, but 130 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: guys like you, you know, let them, let them utilize 131 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: their talent, you know. And um, you know you're one 132 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: of my favorites. You know that, But I don't. I 133 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: don't know if everybody knows. I mean, you got all 134 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: those sacks, and I've had a lot of guys that had, 135 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 1: you know, really a lot of sacks. But you're probably 136 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: the best two way guy. And I'm talking about playing 137 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: the run in the past. I mean, you were, you 138 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: were dominant in the run in the past, and I'm 139 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: not I don't know if people give you enough credit 140 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: for that, but I'm I'm sure dude. You know, I 141 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: appreciate that, coach, so I and I want to jump 142 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: into something too, because you know, the other day Aldon 143 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: Smith and I think also uh DeMarcus Lawrence from the Cowboys, 144 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: they came out and they said, you know, we could 145 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: play a lot faster if the playbook was simpler and 146 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: still to this still to this day, when I talked 147 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: about coming into the NFL trying to figure things out 148 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: and everything moving so fast, and how simple you made 149 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: it for us, it was. It was once we had 150 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: a play, that was it. You know, sometime will come 151 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: up and show different Hollywood coverages and move around pre 152 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: snap or whatever, but the play was still the same. 153 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: And if someone uh, you know, swap formations and went 154 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: to a Power of the week or whatever side that was. 155 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: We were smart enough and caught on enough to know 156 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: both positions at the same and will But ultimately the 157 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 1: game was so simple for us. All you had to 158 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: go out there is worry about making a play. Well, 159 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: you know people always saying people in football always say, uh, 160 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: you play faster if you don't have to think, but 161 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: that's not really true. You play faster if you know 162 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: what to do. And so it's our job as coaches, 163 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: and I'm always you know, being at it for a 164 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: long time. I've seen so many coaches say blame it 165 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: on players basically, but you know, he made this mistake, 166 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: they made this mitake.

And now I just remember all these clips 253 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: and people saying, oh, should be here. Who this guy 254 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: think he is? And I come running out there, and 255 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: I'm talking about every time I ran over the bags. 256 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: So I made a move to cloud. The crowd was 257 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: just clapping, and he was just hyping me up. And 258 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: uh we went one oh one, uh pass rush with 259 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: the running backs, and uh I got up there first. 260 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: Now in this drill, you're really supposed to, you know, 261 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: ola guys and and and work work a pass rush move. 262 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: But I was so piste off from what was saying 263 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: and so hyped up that Lo'neil Lorenz O'Neill, soon to 264 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: be Hall of Fame fullback and one of the best 265 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 1: fullbacks that that that's ever played the game was right 266 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: in front of me. And all I was thinking about 267 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: was I'm gonna run through them. I'm gonna run through 268 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,439 Speaker 1: them and let everybody know.

What 275 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: what do you see like around the league now? Because 276 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: people always asked asked me like who do some of 277 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: the favorite players I like to watch? Right? Or so, 278 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: who were some of the guys that played like Meal 279 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: had a different same type of style. Not I would 280 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: always say, like Khalil Mac right, Like Khalil Mack is 281 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: just if I'm looking at a guy, will just he'll 282 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: play the run, he'll play the pass. He can drop 283 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: and coverage a little bit if you need to. But 284 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: his mentality towards a game, I'm like, man, this dude 285 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: is just he's on another level. And Pagano actually when 286 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: he coached him up in Oakland, he called me after 287 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: the first practice and he said, yo, lights, this dude, 288 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: Khalil Mac, He's he's you. He's on another level. And 289 00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: I said, what do you mean? He said, this guy 290 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: flying around? Who who do you see like some of 291 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: the guys now sitting back watching that resemble some of 292 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: the some of the really good players you coach in 293 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: the pass.

I mean, when we ran sprints, then you 300 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: ran extra. When we lifted, you were lifted extra. When 301 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: you got on when people got on the treadmill, you 302 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: did extra. You not only had great time, but you 303 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: you went to that next level because you utilize your 304 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: talent and that people don't people don't realize that what 305 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: hard workers some of the great players are. There is 306 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: the reason they're great players, that they really work at it. 307 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: And uh yeah, I've always appreciated especially those kind of guys. 308 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: And Aaron's the same way.

And 384 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: I'll tell people all the time still to this day 385 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: that guys like Jamal Williams, right, Jamal Williams, really no, 386 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: I don't think I mean we're I appreciated them because 387 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: I know that without him taking up those double teams 388 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: in that space, the quarterbacks couldn't step up. You know, 389 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: I got a chance to go around the corner, Um. 390 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: But Jamal Williams was one of the greatest players I 391 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 1: got a chance to play with. He was He was 392 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: on another level, but he never received that notoriety because 393 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: of you know, one his position. It was a kind 394 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: of a grimy due to the dirty work type of 395 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: position man. But he was another one. There was just 396 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: just a great defensive player dominant inside. And you know 397 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: what he did. I think you remember, you know he's 398 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: not for a guy that was six six one, maybe 399 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: he knocked down more passes than than most of them. 400 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: In fact, how you use him and still use him 401 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: as an example because if you remember, you know, guys 402 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: that do things well, they work at it, and every drill, 403 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: every walkthrough, when it was a pass or simulated pass 404 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: in practice, he put his hands up. And that's why 405 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: he knocked down so many passes, you know. And he 406 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: could rush the pastor whatn't he couldn't rest the pastor. 407 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: But he worked at it all the time. And like 408 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: I said, he'd be he'd be watching film and and 409 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: and raise his hand. So I mean, if you work 410 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 1: at something enough, you know that that had always proved 411 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: to me, if you work at something enough that you 412 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: can do better at it and get good at it. 413 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: And uh, and so I used him an example of 414 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: of a guy that did that all the time and 415 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: and got better and and uh, I always try to 416 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: use guys as an example. If I've got to, I've 417 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: got a shean him, And I'm gonna tell everybody, if 418 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: you play like Sean plays as hard as he plays. 419 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: Then then we're gonna be good. And that's that really helps. Coach. 420 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: You made everybody good, man. I'm not gonna lie like 421 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: every you know we I mean I look at the 422 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: year that you know, I had the seventeen sacks and 423 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: I think that s p Seawan Phillips had twelve and 424 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: Louise Castile has six. I mean, Igor Shansky was getting 425 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 1: his joxys there. Guys were just spreading love because I 426 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: think we had seventies sacks. Men. That's crazy, man, Nobody's 427 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: come close to that. So yeah, what do you know? No, 428 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: for sure? For sure. And then so I'm looking around 429 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: the league now and I'm like, hold on, how in 430 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: the hell doesn't coach Way Phillips something like one of 431 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: these teams, one of these defenses don't have you there? 432 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: Like I'm looking at the Falcons and the Seahawks, even 433 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 1: you know, certain parts of the Cowboys, Jackson somebody right, um, 434 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: because I just don't understand that. And I you know, 435 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: coach I was going through liked is it maybe COVID 436 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: through the off season off and and maybe they didn't 437 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: have enough time to prepare for coaching staff or bring 438 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: you in. But I'm I'm like, if you look at 439 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: coaches coach Phillips body of work over all the years 440 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: you've been around, somebody need your needs your help. And 441 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: so if you if you sat back and thought about it, 442 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: thought about that at all, well, yeah, I'd like to 443 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: I'd like to do something, but you know you've gotta 444 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: be hired first. So but yeah, no, I mean, you know, 445 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: it's it's a combination a lot of things, and part 446 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: of its age, you know, I just uh, I think 447 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: people think you're older and maybe you're out of touch. 448 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I hey, I started at the 449 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: bottom and I'm here right now.

So uh, you know, 496 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm at that point in my life that you know, 497 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: I am older. So I'm gonna enjoy it. You know, 498 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna enjoy it no matter what, so coaching or not. 499 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: But I do believe I could help someone. I see 500 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: some bad deepens. What are you seeing right now with 501 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: these defenses and what's going on? Yeah? I thought the defenses, 502 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: I actually would be ahead of the offense because there's 503 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: no preseason, no off season. You know, usually the defenses ahead, 504 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: but it hadn't been the case. I'm I'm wondering for 505 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: some of it's because you hadn't tackled any I think 506 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 1: that's that's part of it. You know, you still got 507 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: to get used to the speed of the game and 508 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: uh and being able to tackle when when it's going 509 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: full speed, So maybe that's part of it. I do 510 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: think people put in so much defense, um, you know, 511 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: they put in their full install and the players aren't 512 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: ready for it. I mean, you still can't make mistakes, 513 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: you know, and we we tried to make it simple, 514 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: but it's not a simple game. You know. Offenses are complicated, 515 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: so it makes defenses have to adjust to a lot 516 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: of things. So I just think maybe maybe they and 517 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: players have said it, they got too much in early 518 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: because it would they put normal like they would the 519 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: first game, but they hadn't any free season, They hadn't 520 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: had any all seasons, so you're gonna make mistakes mistakes, 521 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 1: So that's kind of the way I look at it. Yeah, 522 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: and just to that point, um, you know, like you said, 523 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: the offenses. I thought, for sure, we're gonna come in 524 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: slow because it's tim and route is so much you 525 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: gotta put into the playbook. And when I seen Alldon 526 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: Smith and DeMarcus Loan has come out and say what 527 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: they said about the playbook being too complex, uh, I said, 528 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 1: maybe they need to dumb it down because you still 529 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: have rookies. You've got free agents who've come in and 530 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: trying to you know, get their legs up under him. Um, 531 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: there's what barely no mini camps O t a s. 532 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: Being able to sit in that meeting room and go 533 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: over things and allow these young pups, to these young 534 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: guys to make these mistakes and figure out the mistakes. 535 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: Mean film room will change the young guys year coming 536 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: in learning and watching film, being able to make those 537 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: mistakes and coming back back out and correct it. But 538 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: they didn't have that. They didn't have any of that 539 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: this offseason. So you know, to your point, you got 540 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta dumb it down. Yeah, And I think 541 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: the offenses because they can you know, offenses can do 542 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: stuff with no pad zone. You know, they can get 543 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: a lot of their time and they can get their plays. 544 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: They can really get in their whole playbook defenses because 545 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: they haven't uh practice tackling, they haven't taken Uh, it's 546 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: hard to it's hard to simulate defense more than you 547 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: know that. So I think that's just kind of behind 548 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: a little bit. It baff with me. I can't even 549 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: put my finger around it. How someone even mid mid season, 550 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: you know, four games in that they don't have you 551 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: in to be a part of their staff. You know, 552 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: one of these teams that they look promising, uh, you know, 553 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: the Seahawks and something. You know, somebody that looks promising 554 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: to get a ring this year, but you need to 555 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: tighten that defensive. I'm surprised. Well, that's that's just part 556 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: of the game, you know. You know it's a business too. 557 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: You know that you've been through it too. You know, 558 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: players go through it as a been, coaches do to. 559 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 1: So you know that's just the way it worked out. 560 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna be I'm gonna enjoy what I'm doing, 561 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: you know that, So even if I'm not doing anything 562 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: until noon. So let's let me ask you. You get 563 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: that call next year and you know it's a desirable position, 564 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: are you still open the coach next year? Oh? Yeah? Yeah, 565 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: Like I said, I think I can help, and that's 566 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, Uh, it's all about winning. You know. It's 567 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: fun to play, it's it's fun to have the game, 568 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: but the real thing is to be able to win, 569 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: you know, And that's not that's not easy to do. 570 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: People think it's easy to do, but it's not. And 571 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: I've been lucky to be on with a lot of 572 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: winning teams, and that's what makes it even more fun. Well, course, 573 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: every everybody I talked to the play for you played 574 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: against you, we all say the same thing I was. 575 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: I was talking to marself as wildly the other the 576 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: day we will we're on the show.
