I did 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:52.680 a TV spot. 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.560 That's why you have the tie on under ten fifty. 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:59.720 I did another TV deal. Eleven o'clock was the locker room. Okay, 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:04.799 eleven forty was the fan, and twelve o'clock was this. 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:06.960 Don't you know what I do for a living? 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:11.840 Yes, I haven't had a minute mouthpiece. 0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:14.919 You haven't had a minute's piece yet. 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:17.240 And there's a lot of spinning going on this week, 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.640 and so the Mike McCarthy press conference won't be until 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:27.400 later today because it's a it's a short week after 0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:31.120 the Monday night game, playing on Sunday at noon in 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:34.040 Charlotte against those Carolina Panthers. 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:37.280 And the team didn't need to be here till noon 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:39.560 today team meeting and then so. 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:43.600 They opened up the locker room at eleven. Yes, that's 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:48.360 strategic team reports at noon. Media could come in at eleven. 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:50.880 I think I can count the guys that were in 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:56.200 there talking to themselves, which is what they do anyway, 0:03:56.600 --> 0:04:02.640 passing through with maybe both hands right, twelve fingers, that's 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:08.720 a bit. The guys that well, you know, that's how 0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:14.280 many people were in there, twelve twelve, two hands, twelve fingers. 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:21.640 Yeah, whatever, So nothing coming out of the nothing noteworthy 0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:23.840 coming out of the locker room. 0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:26.359 Yeah there was. I mean what, I don't know what 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.840 more you could ask him, or what more they could say. 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:33.320 Cavante Turpin talked for a little while and he was 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.960 talking about, you know, going forward, and he goes, you know, 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:41.599 he goes, uh, you know me, he goes, I'm just 0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:44.560 trying to win games and don't matter who I'm competing 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:48.200 against her, you know what happened before. But I did 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:50.880 get to ask him. I think, did I tell you 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:55.680 yesterday that when he was lined up waiting for the 0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:59.320 punt to two minutes and that he was having this 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:03.440 conversation sideline. I said, so, what was going on? Were 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:05.560 they giving you a crap or something? And he goes, no, 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:11.520 they were telling me to make a fair catch. He goes, 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:14.440 they said, don't be returning this. You make a fair catch. 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.800 And he said, you better kick it out of bounds 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:19.800 because if I get my hands on the ball, I'm 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.120 going to the house, just like that. So that was 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:25.719 the conversation they were having during that two minute time out. 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:28.200 I thought it was, and he was laughing about it. 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:31.280 He goes one of the guys he goes, I know 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.320 real well on the team, Britt. I don't know if 0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:37.080 it's the last name. He goes, we know each other. 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.320 So he was giving me grief and I was telling 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:40.640 you better not kick it to me. 0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:42.800 Let's look, let's think about this. 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:47.200 We have two extremely well really three dynamic players on 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:51.240 special teams and Ken kick his butt off, right, We've 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:55.239 got a field goal kicking, we've got turk and the deep. 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:56.360 Snapper is not all that bad. 0:05:57.279 --> 0:06:01.200 And don't forget Nick vigil Okay, well, Nick Vigils. 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.200 So let's get into this because we got a chance 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:06.120 to talk to Fossil. 0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:08.000 Okay, there you go, that's why I was hitted. 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:13.800 And so he pointed out that they had a return on. 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:17.800 It wasn't a punt block, it was a return. And 0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:21.920 what they do for the return is you they call 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.520 it a vice. So you got two guys holding up 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:25.520 the gunner to the west. 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:27.359 I'll tell you can tell that the return is on. 0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:30.159 Now when you're watching football at the snap, if you 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:33.200 see two guys on the gunner, then the returns on. 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:35.919 And they wanted to go to that side to the 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:40.080 Cowboys left. So Oi was one of the guys in 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:40.520 the vice. 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:42.400 So if they didn't have the return on, he would 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:43.520 not have been there. 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:48.600 Right basically, uh and and so what what you have 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:52.400 to do is the guys to the right are all gonna, 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:56.720 you know, at the snap, take care of their guys 0:06:56.800 --> 0:07:01.039 and then peel back to block the guy that it 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:05.880 was in vigil spot is supposed to be the whole, 0:07:06.080 --> 0:07:08.760 not the hold up guy. But make sure there's no 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:12.080 fake going on. And so he's supposed to sit there, 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:17.120 and what happened was he had wherewithal that the guy 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:20.120 next that was in front of him didn't block him, 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.360 and he was like, oh, I'm going to go and 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:26.280 see what happened. Right, he had a free run. 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.600 Because to notice that and then rush and still block 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:31.760 it right that he really. 0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:35.960 Perfect technique and not hit the punter. So it was 0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:43.880 it was all perfect right until it all bounces. Turpin said, 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.880 I was yelling, Peter means, get the hell out of 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.040 the way, right, he goes, I'm sure he couldn't hear 0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:54.240 me because of the punt block. Everybody's roaring, right, and 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:57.240 there's a lot of noise, and you know, and. 0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:01.680 You're involved in the double team exactly right, and you're 0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:04.160 the ball he and Fossil said. 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:06.920 He said he didn't see the ball block, so he 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:09.280 saw the ball coming at him and and. 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:10.080 What do we do? 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:19.160 Right and so but so Fossil goes through this whole thing, 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.760 and then he gets asked a question about, well, this 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:25.280 has been a weird year because you guys on special 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:28.200 teams have made like three mistakes. That's where I was 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.240 hitted and and when I heard the question, I kind 0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:35.600 of right retracted and I'm going, well, I don't know 0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:40.280 if there are three mistakes, and Fossil, being the nice 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:42.800 guy he is, he goes, well, if you want to 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:47.600 blame somebody, blame me. I'm the coach, right uh, And 0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:52.600 I'm going okay, mistake is a pretty harsh word to use. 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.959 And we got done. Somebody was walking by when I 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:59.960 went upstairs, and I said, this is one of the 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:03.839 those days. I still wish Parcels was here because if 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:07.000 he had gotten that question, he would have said, what 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.160 the blah blah blah are you talking about? And he 0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:12.560 would have given him grief. But these guys, and I 0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:16.960 told Fossil, I said, you were too nice. I said, 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:19.880 good thing. It wasn't me because I would have reacted. 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:22.560 I don't know that you call it a mistake. And 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:27.800 he had the best line ever. He was talking about 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:32.200 the difficulties on special teams. You can't practice everything. You 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:36.199 can talk about stuff and everything, but you can't practice 0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:40.120 it right. And he said, so the bottom line is, 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:44.880 don't let your babies grow up to be special teams players. 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:48.760 How perfect, how perfect? 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:50.160 Right? 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:52.560 And that's kind of the bottom line because there's so 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:57.240 many factors that go into every player as a player. 0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:00.680 And I'm not dumping anything on Fossil at all as 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:04.200 a coach to his players. You gotta let him know 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.880 the rules first, and you operate within that right, which 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:12.040 is still in this particular situation, meaning, oh, did I 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:12.520 say his name? 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:12.640 Right? 0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:17.560 That's my first time ever saying it. Uh, he didn't. 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:20.760 That was just one of those situations. Now, if you're 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:24.000 talking about the fake punts and things of that nature, 0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:25.480 that's not luck. 0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:28.040 That's just bad execution. 0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:30.600 Right, or you got sucked into one, right, right, right? 0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:35.280 So so so somebody asked him, He goes, well, this 0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:38.720 happened a couple of years ago with Makuamu, right. They 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:43.240 was it a block punt that he grabbed and then 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:47.600 he fumbled it away and then the Leon Lett thing, right, Okay, 0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.080 Leon's thing was totally different. No, that's not that's he 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.480 didn't know the rules, right, and he's going to do 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:54.800 something he didn't to do. 0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:56.880 Coach wasn't even here. Coach Fossil wasn't. 0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:58.199 Here, right, So they asked him. 0:10:58.200 --> 0:10:59.920 So now they went back. 0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.680 He was asked, so, after the Macarmick thing, do you 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:06.520 talk to the team about that stuff? And he goes, yeah, 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:09.200 we you know, we pointed out and everything, and I'm 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:14.640 going a worryer wasn't here, then he wouldn't have heard 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:17.960 that speech after that happened. As a matter of fact, 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:22.120 he just got here, so they wouldn't have been before 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:25.680 the game. Now, if we block a punt, don't touch. 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:27.839 It, well, I think he knew that right away. I 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:31.240 think he already knew that. Yes, But once again, it 0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:34.920 was just a situation. You weren't expecting a block, you 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:36.640 were expecting a return. 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.640 And he didn't know it was You didn't hear anything, 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.560 no idea, anything, His back was to all the actions. 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:46.959 So in that case, totally a missa, just your bad circumstances. 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:50.920 You just in a bad, bad situation that you couldn't 0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:54.680 really anticipate. But once again, when you start talking about. 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:58.960 The bad calls, if the calls are bad, yeah, okay, 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:01.280 it's a bad call. I don't know that it's a mistake. 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.600 It's just a bad call because how many how many 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:09.120 times in offensive coordinator calls to play and it doesn't work. 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:11.199 Is it a mistake or is it a bad call? 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:14.200 It's different with special team is yeah, it's different special 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:15.360 team because you know. 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:18.560 You only got so many opportunities. 0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:22.120 So I wouldn't I think what the reason I brought 0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:25.199 it up was because we're looking at really the strength 0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:29.000 of our team, that just ironically happens to be the 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:33.000 part of it that we lost in the most critical situation. 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:34.959 I mean, he could have thought it was a fumble. 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:39.079 Yeah, stuff, it's the guy could have tried to run 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:41.520 the ball. As far as he's concerned. The guy could 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:47.280 have tried to run the ball, right, So you know this, 0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:49.160 This is still the strength of our team as far 0:12:49.160 --> 0:12:52.040 as I'm concerned. It's just so ironic that that would 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:54.120 be the one that yeah, man. 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.800 Because think about it. How many times do you see 0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:03.480 a punt, whether it's partially blocked or off the side 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:06.400 of a foot. How many times in the NFL does 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.040 a does a pump wind up in the in the 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.040 area that that one was going forward? 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.439 It was no more than ten yards, I believe from 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:17.560 the line of I mean rarely, no, was it was further. 0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:23.200 Down well, they were at twenty nine from the twenty right, 0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:27.960 and it bounced at about the thirty eight Yeah, yeah, okay, 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:29.720 twenty yards twenty some yards. 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:34.120 I mean it's just rare. So it flashes through your mind. 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:36.760 I don't know, anything flashes through your mind. You're just 0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:37.400 the balls there. 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:43.120 It's there, and it's coming at me, right, that's all 0:13:43.160 --> 0:13:46.600 he knows. Hey, the ball's coming at me. Now, No, Peter, 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:47.960 no man, I'm not Peter. 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:51.600 Come on, and you don't know where that ball's how 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:53.800 that ball is going to bounce when it bounced, it 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:55.559 could bounce and hit you in the foot. 0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:55.920 You know. 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:58.920 His only, his only, if you're going to criticize anything, 0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.520 is that he has no hands. 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:03.280 That he thought he was hit. 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:06.240 By fielding it. 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:09.560 It's why he's a cornerback, right, not a wide receiver. 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:13.840 But it could just as easily have if he lays 0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:16.880 off it. It could have bounced and kicked right into 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:18.000 his foot. 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:20.840 Or it could have hit somebody else. Now, the best 0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:22.440 thing would have ben if it would have hit one 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:25.360 of the Bengals, and then it's a dead balls. 0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:27.800 And then you can pick it up and run with 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.800 it right and try to score and it doesn't matter 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.880 what happens after that. If it's a negative for the 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:37.800 return team, it goes back to where the punt team 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:38.480 touched it. 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:40.600 I think they I think on TV they went back 0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:44.760 to like three different instances where we that happened to 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:45.360 us before. 0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:48.640 Yeah, well, at least two, at least the Macomo and 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:49.760 then Leon. 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:52.200 Yeah, well it was another one there was. 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:56.080 Right, Yeah, no I said, I said Macomo na shon right, 0:14:56.160 --> 0:15:00.600 I spoke against Denver. Yeah right, he tried to pick 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.520 it up and run I think or whatever. 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:04.320 Yeah. 0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:08.400 Well, so it was uh, yeah, it was. 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:10.240 It was quite a little. 0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:13.600 But he gave well the other thing way by play 0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:16.760 of the play on the call and what everybody was 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:20.600 supposed to do, and and then it was well, you know, 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.480 did you have to talk to Jerry? And he goes, well, yeah, 0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:25.440 I talked to Jerry all the time, and he asked 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.280 good questions because after the game, Jerry was like, well, 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:30.800 I'm not sure why we had a punt block on Well, 0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:34.120 everybody heard that, but he didn't hear. They didn't hear 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:36.600 what he said on the fan the next morning after 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:40.040 he found out what happened and what the call was, 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:46.280 and he basically said, well, he goes, after talking to everybody, 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:49.200 he goes it wasn't a punt block. 0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:54.640 So that's why the reporters were asking Fossil about talking 0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:57.720 with Jerry. Yes, And so what they're getting at is 0:15:57.760 --> 0:16:01.680 how okay, so how often does that happen. Did you 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:04.720 get scolded, you get sent to the principal's. 0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:08.760 Office, did you talk to That's crazy. 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:12.160 Right, But that's why the question, that's why the question 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:18.800 was asked. You said, but we shout by the top 0:16:18.840 --> 0:16:19.600 of my head coach. 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:24.520 His initial answer, his initial answer was, well, yeah, he's 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:26.520 the GM. He asked good questions. 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:28.000 That's what Macarthy said. 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:33.200 Yeah, Macarthy, Yeah, I saw that. I saw that man. 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:40.040 So anyway, protocol and once again, this team can't just 0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:44.640 lose a game.
