1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: We had a good day of practice. Now tomorrow they'll

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:04,559
Speaker 1: be off and then we'll be back to work for

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: a Monday night game on Thursday. So I'll take your questions.

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: What did you find in your reflection? Well, I just

5
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: you know, I think some of it is I think

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,479
Speaker 1: we need to play better. I think we need to

7
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: coach better. And we're certainly not happy with the record.

8
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: And you know, I feel like, you know, when you're

9
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: close in games, you know, you look back on plays here,

10
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: plays there, and um closest and enough, we've got to

11
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: try to find a way to get it over the top.

12
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 1: Do you make any I don't want to say wholesale changes,

13
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: because I know the roster is what it is, but

14
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 1: do you maybe change up some of the schemes, you know,

15
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: some of the things you have been to the well,

16
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: I think you're constantly looking at new things to do.

17
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: I think that just happens. It's like you're constantly through

18
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 1: the game trying to find things that that work within

19
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: your scheme um. And then you're always looking for the

20
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: right combination of players. You said you said before the season,

21
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: you know, may take like a month, like four games.

22
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 1: We got a good handle of it what you know,

23
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 1: what you have, you know, getting to learn the players?

24
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: Did you feel you you know, we after six weeks

25
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: you know what you have and what you don't have,

26
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,119
Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean I think, yeah, I think I've

27
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: got a much better feeling for who the players are

28
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: and how they respond to I'll win, and how we're

29
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: responding to losses, and then how hard guys work and

30
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: their competitive spirit and all that, and then what guys

31
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: can and can't do. And you know, as you know,

32
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: we're constantly changing up the roster. There's been a lot

33
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: of change from a year ago, and you know, we

34
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: just gotta get everybody on the same page and and

35
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: doing the things necessary to win games. Is it fairness

36
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: that you can be disappointed? But how Subjet responded, No,

37
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm not disappointed again. I'm getting to know everybody. And

38
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: in this environment where you're playing games, it's for real,

39
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: and you go through a week process to prepare for

40
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: a game, then play a game, you learn a lot

41
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: about people and how people handle adversity, how they push

42
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: through things, how they hand um, you know the good

43
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: and the back. Do you guys expect to be active

44
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: before the trade deadline later this month? Oh, I wouldn't

45
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: comment on that. I don't. I don't. I don't even

46
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 1: know what that means to me. And we're gonna make trades, yea.

47
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: Now we we've we were making changes to the roster

48
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 1: all the time. I think we did that today. We're

49
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: gonna Coach's thinking about making any changes to the offit

50
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: as you go forward. We're looking at really everything, trying

51
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: to make sure we get the best combination of guys.

52
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: We like the group we have. Um again, we'll always

53
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: continue to improve each group that we have, but we'll

54
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: try to find the right combination. I'm sure you saw

55
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: watched that down and watched a couple of the games

56
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: over the weekend, the NFL NFL games, right, obviously a

57
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: lot of points scoring that the league is. Yeah, we

58
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: haven't scored enough points and and I'm I've acknowledged that,

59
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: and we need to. We got the ball in the

60
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: red zone a couple of times last week where we

61
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: didn't score points. We were stopped on fourth down once

62
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: we kicked a couple of field goals. That makes the

63
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: game a lot different. And I think you know I've

64
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: I've acknowledged that. So yeah, I mean, when you get

65
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: down here. You gotta score points. We also spotted them

66
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: seven points too. John Meravan was closing the same I

67
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: was embarrassed at the left the five. Yeah, I mean

68
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: I we I don't like it either. I'm disappointed that

69
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: we're one in five and we're working to correct that.

70
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: And um, you know, I I've said this before when

71
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: we lose ball games, I'm disappointed for our players, our

72
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: coaches are fans, and also our administration and that includes

73
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: that includes John and so I get it. I know

74
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: the feeling, and those of us that have coached in

75
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: this game long enough, we want enough games to know

76
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: how that feels. And we've lost games and gone through

77
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: stretches where you're trying to build something and you lose games,

78
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: and you know how that feels. And I've mentioned it

79
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: many times that there is an urgency in our gut

80
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: to get it right, and we're trying to do the

81
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: things necessary to do that. Pat Yet Pat John also

82
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: said that hopeful o Dell with you know, play more

83
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: and talk less. You know, I've addressed the O'Dell stuff,

84
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: and listen. O'Dell is a is a member of the

85
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: New York Giants football team, and we're gonna work with

86
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: every player to become the best they can be, not

87
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: only on the field, but off the field, and so

88
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: when when things happen, you know, we talked behind the

89
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: scenes and we're trying to make everybody as good as

90
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: they can be in really all areas of their life. Um,

91
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: you know, I think that that's that's the way it works.

92
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: You expect to have Ingram and Ellison practicing this week. Yeah,

93
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: they actually practiced today, so we're hopeful that they'll be

94
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: ready to roll on Mondays. For different reasons, Eli O

95
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: Galdo are right now kind of in a class and

96
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 1: as a sign blames for the record, sure that deserved

97
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: by the two eventage. How would you cars out blame

98
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: as well? That's for people outside the building. You know,

99
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: none of us, none of us, none of us have

100
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 1: played or coach well enough to to be where we

101
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: want to be. So we we own that. You know,

102
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: outside the building, it's always given praise an assigning blame.

103
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: You know, that's the noise that happens outside the building.

104
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,559
Speaker 1: We correct each place specifically, each situation, specifically, each event

105
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: in the game specifically, with the idea that if a

106
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: mistake is made, you correct it and move on and

107
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: and the goal is to not have it happen again.

108
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: So that's that's where it is. That is their concerned

109
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: for any of the guys who didn't practice today, soldier, burning,

110
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: barrowing for when it comes to Monday. There's just some

111
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: there's just some game where and tear from from last week.

112
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: So no, I don't have any concern
