There's a 6 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: chance that a lot of things could happen. And it's Monday, 7 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: and we'll figure out how he progresses along the week, 8 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: and we'll see what he can do and have him 9 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 1: do what he can do. 10 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 4: Was your progression last week? 11 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: Thanks continuing to improve, working hard and yeah, trying to 12 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: get back.

But thank you for asking. 19 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 4: I'd everything go with the operation defensively. You and Zach 20 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 4: working together yesterday, Yeah. 21 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: I mean good. I mean we didn't have any you 22 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: know when we subbed and we got into our calls 23 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: and again there's no talked about this before the best 24 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: call is a decisive one that the players know and 25 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: believe in and that they can They have confidence that 26 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: they can execute their job. And so when we when 27 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: we needed to get the drive stop, we got the 28 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: drive stopped. You know, how to plan to play these 29 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: guys and then how we wanted to play them. 30 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: Some of the situational coaching calls love to just get 31 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 2: your mindset on fourth quarter, which turned to andy for 32 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: that the three yarders. 33 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: It was after the fall stuff. 34 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: I was thinking when it happened, like a field goal 35 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: or goal for it, But then I was thinking, was a. 36 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 5: Punt even a consideration there? 37 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 2: What was the tough process? 38 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: Oh? I think maybe had the game been down, the 39 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: time would have been less. I think maybe you could 40 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: could have discussed a punt in that situation. But with 41 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: as much time, you know, I don't know if putting 42 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: them on the fifteen yard lines, you know, twelve yard 43 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: lines going to really matter for those guys. That just 44 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: felt like either we were going to win it or 45 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: we were going to force them to to have to 46 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: score a touchdown and really big kick in a really 47 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: big moment, you know, making them then I have to 48 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: score a touchdown is a heck of a lot different 49 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: than a field goal. I think you guys can see, 50 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: we all see around the league, the impact that the 51 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: kickers have at the end of the game. The distance 52 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: you know, you really don't have much to defend nowadays. 53 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: Used to be, you know, it's thirty two to thirty 54 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,839 Speaker 1: five yard line. Now it's you know, some of these 55 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: cross midfield or close to it. 56 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 4: Just kind of on move along the same lines, because 57 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 4: we're kind of getting a feel for how you can 58 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: go through some of these decisions starting the game. It 59 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 4: doesn't feel like it's black or white for you, like 60 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 4: aggressive versus not aggressive, like you go for the fourth 61 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 4: down early. I was wondering fourth and four late in 62 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 4: the second quarter to think at all about it. 63 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: I just wanted to get some points there. Just felt 64 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: like points was was important there and coming away with that. 65 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: Had it been closer, probably, but you know, I think 66 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: it was it was twofold. I felt like, you know, 67 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: let's get Andy one through and through and again get 68 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: him jump started, knowing that we're going to need him, 69 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: uh in this game. But also you know, fourth and 70 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: four on the four gets to be a little dice, see, 71 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, it's not really a fifty to 72 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: fifty proposition there, So love the execution on the two 73 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: point conversion. Love the you know, wanted to be decisive 74 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: and aggressive, and I felt like we were early on. 75 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: You could see how we played in short yardage situationally, 76 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: you could see the ball coming out on fourth and 77 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: three and Digsie, you know, being able to snap down, 78 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: get it whatever the situation called for. So there's a 79 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: lot of really good examples of us doing that. 80 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: Coach Hunter, Henry is now fit all the time, received 81 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 3: Bridgie edge with the franchise. Just what does he mean 82 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 3: to this team? I don't We've talked to one about him, 83 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 3: but to do that in a short amount of time 84 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 3: here for the most part, check. 85 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: To shut that one. Well. I think Hunter is just reliable, 86 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: is consistent. You can always any adjustments or tweaks that 87 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: you may have with with a game plan or a scheme, 88 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: He's able to handle. I think see those things, and 89 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: that's what I appreciate it about him. It's his ability 90 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 1: to to not only be productive, but also adjust to 91 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 1: things as you make changes or hey, this is what 92 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: we need or this is the in the coverage, And 93 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: you know, I thought Drake might have had him. You know, 94 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: the ball was tipped down there in the end zone 95 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: or down in the red zone. Uh. So again he 96 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: provides leadership and there's a very consistent presence to him. 97 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 4: Like you've had tackling issues the first two couple of games, 98 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 4: and those physical mental are both. 99 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: Well. I don't think we tackled terribly, uh in the 100 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: in the first week yesterday was it was a tough task, right, 101 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: We we missed far too many tackles. So debate whether 102 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: we tackled well the first week or not. It is 103 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: h I mean, it's it's always you know, physical, I 104 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: think mentally, it puts you in the right position, put 105 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: in the right frame of mind of what what we're 106 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: asking out of each tackle? Right? And where are you? 107 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: Are you in space and we need to come to balance. 108 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: Are we in close quarters where you know we can 109 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: run through somebody and and run our feet on contact 110 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: and be able to to wrap. Are we using the sidelines? Right? 111 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: A lot of things that we want to avoid and 112 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: make sure that we practice and continue to practice. I 113 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: mean we have we we'll need to do more of 114 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: it this week. And they put you into a space game. 115 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: A team like Miami puts you into a space game, 116 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: and you know they don't have any you know, there's 117 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: no shortage of skilled players that are good with the 118 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: ball in their hands. So we'll have to be better 119 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: and be able to use the right technique and the 120 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: right mentality, and then also having you know, everybody else 121 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: coming full tilt to the tackle too. To again sometimes 122 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: make up and a tone for for some of those misses. 123 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 4: Like just one more sort of decision question. You're asked 124 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 4: about the radio thrown out of the two minute. Obviously 125 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 4: that particular play didn't work. 126 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what happens when it doesn't work. It's like 127 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: why'd you throw? Well, when you throw it and you 128 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: and you hit it, you know, just getting pressure, and 129 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: thought we could call we could, you know, catch the corner. 130 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 1: You know, they had brought the corner previously a few 131 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: series before. They brought both corners. I thought maybe we 132 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: could catch them on one. It didn't work out. Knew 133 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: we would need a first down to end it there, 134 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: and I thought maybe we could we could catch them 135 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: on one. It didn't work. So again, do not want 136 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: to be results based, you know, they're just went with 137 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: the call. I knew we needed a first down. And 138 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: it didn't work out in that situation. 139 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 5: So like on that second down play, that philis mentioning, 140 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 5: do you have, Josh, have any conversations with Drake If 141 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 5: it's not there, don't just throw it away, Maybe take 142 00:07:59,120 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 5: a sat. 143 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if to say, you know what I mean, 144 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: you're you're you're trying to convert there, right, So there's 145 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: a fine line. There's there's times where we talked about 146 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: in in preseason. So we were in Minnesota, right and 147 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: we were in a five minute and we called a 148 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: play and Woolridge and Ben and Ben threw it away, right, 149 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: he got pressure and in that since instance, we were 150 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: coaching Drake and Josh on the side, Hey, that's where 151 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: we would want to take a sack that this thing 152 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: is so low and then you know, they burn a 153 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: time out or forty seconds and then we can punt. 154 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: It's third down. I think when you start looking at 155 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: at the second down, right, if it goes to third 156 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: and let's say twelve, now, now that's probably not your 157 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: best chance to end the game. And so he would 158 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: probably have two choices that he could try to go 159 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: and take off and get up into the pocket and 160 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: get what he can get or feel like maybe I 161 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 1: can get one in there to Mac. So the play 162 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: didn't work, it was incomplete, and then you know, we 163 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: went through, we went to the next play, try to 164 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: go for it on fourth down and then and then 165 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: ultimately kicked the field goals. So need to be better there, 166 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: but proud of the way that we went in there 167 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: and made the kick and and helped us. So the 168 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: Josh and I talked about the call and I thought 169 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: we could try to catch him and we did it. Kicker, 170 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: you had a lot of them in Tennessee. 171 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 2: I know you said it on the podcast a couple 172 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: of years that you've seen them go elsewhere and kick well. 173 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: Parker Wilmel hit a couple last night. Andrew was up 174 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 2: and down, but you know he got the game all 175 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 2: and you had. 176 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: Confidence in him. 177 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: How do you go about moving on versus staying with 178 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 2: it and standing behind the guy versus you know, going elsewhere. 179 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 3: And that's the situation. 180 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: I don't think we're ready to have that conversation yet. 181 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: I mean, he's made every kick in the fourth quarter, 182 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: He's made meaningful kicks. You know, That's That's where I'm at. 183 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have gone on out there with Andy, and it wasn't 184 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 1: like I debated long and he knows he has a 185 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: job to do and we have a full confidence in 186 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: to do his job. And happy for for Parker. Happy 187 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: for Parker, you know, that's how it goes. I meant 188 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: that he went down there, took advantage of his opportunities, 189 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: and enjoyed my time with him here. So I'm happy 190 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: that he went down there and helped himself. 191 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: Look that career high in receiving yards yesterday for Remondre 192 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 2: obviously including. 193 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 4: The big fifty artor how much of a lift did 194 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: he give you that. 195 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: Huge, huge lift? I meant being able to run the 196 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: football he was did a nice job in a running game. 197 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: All those backs I thought finished runs. Thought that was 198 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: a huge key. His ability to to protect and also 199 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: you know, catch it out of the backfield, whether that 200 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: was from the second and long. You know what, we 201 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: had inflicted self inflicted wounds at forces in a second 202 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: and long. Remandre and others helped us get it back 203 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: to third and manageable by being able to drop step 204 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: in his zone and to knife and get us back 205 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 1: into third and less than five. So that was a 206 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 1: huge key. And then you know has to try to continue. 207 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: What's your biggest takeaway for Drake's performance? That was hugely efficient. 208 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: The ball went where it was supposed to go. He 209 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: was decisive. I thought he did a great job of 210 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: transferring into the pocket, up into the pocket, setting his depth, 211 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: and then transferring up being really good with the football, 212 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: being able to pull through with two hands in the 213 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: pocket when they have, you know, edge rushers and we're 214 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: on the road. That's where it's going to be really 215 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: critical and is to be able to set the depth 216 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: of the pocket, get back, keep your eyes downfield, transfer 217 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: up into the pocket, and deliver the football. And he 218 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: did that on on multiple occasions. So when you don't 219 00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: do that, those turn into sacks, hurries, throwaway stripsack And 220 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: when you can climb the pocket and remain a thrower 221 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: and keep your eyes downfield, that's when you can hit someplace. 222 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: Thanks guys,
