1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: Good morning. All right. Can you start with how Hollard

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: looked after a couple of days off on the side

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: and just just any other hell face you said you're

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: dealing with it's going here, I mean, Tony's working through it.

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: You know, we'll see how it goes. I think really

6
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 1: his comments yesterday is the is the outlook. So we'll

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: take it all the way up to the game and uh,

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: you know he'll be part of the mock game today,

9
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:22,760
Speaker 1: you know, but you know, we got to make sure

10
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,320
Speaker 1: we work all the different combinations too. Michael is on

11
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: injury poor way here. That's what's going on here, something

12
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: to flair it up and practice yesterday, so you know,

13
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: but um, you know, we'll see how he moves today.

14
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: And I'm not I don't think it's of a serious nature.

15
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: Was an injury separated particular player practice or something from

16
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:46,959
Speaker 1: our later to my understanding is that uh you kind

17
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: of starting the way room on Monday, it just wasna

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: it was bothering him a little bit. Um, So we're

19
00:00:52,760 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: just just being cautious. How if you eat him and

20
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: is Edo Smith ready to help out? I think so,

21
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: you know, I think he's picked it up quickly. I

22
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: know the communication from Skip and Kellen, you know, meeting

23
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: this morning about the personnel. Um, so he's making really

24
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: good process but progress. He he is fitting pretty seamlessly.

25
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: So what do you like about him? I mean, what

26
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: have you see him from him as a player? If

27
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 1: it's a good fan point, well, I think at this

28
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: time of year, I think, you know number one has experienced,

29
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 1: but I you know, I really like his run, stylers,

30
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: versatility there. Um. You know, he's obviously played experienced than

31
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: Quinn has you know has has experience with him. So

32
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,199
Speaker 1: but I think, like anytime when you know a player

33
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: comes in, particularly late in the season, you know how

34
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: they transition in and you know, I know it's only

35
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: been a couple of days, but you know, when you

36
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: watch him practice, it looked like he'd been out there

37
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: for a while. So I thought it a nice job

38
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: of jumping in and have an understanding what we're asking

39
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: to do. What Tony ha ha been in issue? Uh,

40
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: who's a candidate due do kickoff returns? You know? Really

41
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: how a couple of guys But you know we'd probably

42
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: like to hold hold onto that. But you know, I

43
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: think if you just look at who's done it there

44
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: in the past, you know, so it would be the

45
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: same same options. And how do you wate that with him?

46
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: Because I mean he's been very effective for you, but

47
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: you want to you don't want to overuse him as

48
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 1: he deals with this. Is it is that something that's

49
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: off his plate for the moment to work back? I

50
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: would say right now, you know, because I think, uh,

51
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: just you know, we trust Tony. I mean, he's you know,

52
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,399
Speaker 1: he's this guy's a workout warrior. So we'll just see

53
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: how it goes all the way through. You know, pregame

54
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: will be big, you know. I would assume he would

55
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: be over there on the first bus and go through

56
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: that process and we'll make the decision before the game

57
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: we can deal with Planet of Fascia. Is better happen

58
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 1: torn or that? I mean, I don't know how that

59
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: the medical the medical um staff would tell you it's better,

60
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: It's better for it to tear, and then you know,

61
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: the healing process then takes into place. Yes, that that's

62
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: my understanding. Just torn or do we know? We don't know.

63
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. You might get Yesterday, Ryan Rivera was

64
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: asked about you saying the team was gonna win on Sunday,

65
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: and he said that you do that for a couple

66
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 1: of reasons why you want to get into their head

67
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,239
Speaker 1: handing in the Washington Secondly, he thinks that you're trying

68
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: to convince your team of something, and he said that

69
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: you now we had it about yourself, not the players,

70
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: and he thinks of the big mistake, Well, I think,

71
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 1: like anything we you know, the conversation that we had

72
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 1: and here yesterday we were talking about a number of

73
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: different things. I think when you come out of a

74
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: buy a weekend, I think, just like comments um that

75
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: are made, you know, context is important, and I think

76
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes I gets lost, but it's irrelevant when

77
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: anybody thinks. Anybody thinks about what I said in here yesterday,

78
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: I was talking about my team. I always coached my

79
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: own team, so and that's where I'm at with it.

80
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: So we have great confidence what we're trying to do.

81
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: It was an honest answer to a question from a

82
00:03:54,920 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: great group of people, like some of your players react

83
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: day that we were kind of fired up to and

84
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: you like that response from that, Yeah, I just think it.

85
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: I think it just gives you a insight to what

86
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: you know. Just the way we operate I mean, I

87
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: think it's I mean obvious. We were committed, we spent

88
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: a lot of time together, We're focused on what's next.

89
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: We understand the urgency this time of year, we understand

90
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: the importance of this game, and we know who we're playing. So,

91
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: like I said, this is a clear, honest answer. So

92
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: we feel good about on your radio show that lie

93
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: up and working right at the table. I guess we

94
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: can draw up a logible delusions from that. I think

95
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: we asked you earlier in the week kind of this question.

96
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: But is at the point in the year with the

97
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: offensive line where you'd like to set it in barring injury,

98
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: this is where you'd like to go from here? I mean, really,

99
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: it's the same answer to the same question that you

100
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: all ask me back in training camp. I mean, you'd

101
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: like to set your offensive line as soon as you can.

102
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, when

103
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: you when you're talking about starting lineups, you know, combination

104
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: of receivers, combination of dbs or whatever it is, and

105
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 1: altimately it comes down to the to the players. You

106
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: know that you know that opportunity to play with five

107
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: cohesive linemen at the end of the day is formed

108
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: by the you know, the execution and the performance of

109
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: the players. Yeah, so I am very hopeful that we

110
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: can come out of this, you know what the continuity

111
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: that we're looking for. So, I mean it's it's really

112
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: based on their performance. And that's the way it's always been.

113
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: Let's talking to you about the differences, mean, players being talented.

114
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm playing well in coercion and how have you seen

115
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: them in parts? Sue he Randy and Marcus start working

116
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: together again. I mean, um, just a lot of the

117
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: little things. I mean, you go down there in the

118
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: pre practice, just watched the you know, the communication of

119
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: the line stunts and the calls and so and and

120
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: that's the you know, that's the stuff that we talk

121
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: about bringing, you know, bringing it obviously, you know one

122
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: of your veteran players back in. You're excited, obviously, you

123
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: know what they bring to the table. But it's just

124
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: you know, the pre snap communication, you know, the field,

125
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: the identification, particularly in the line movements. You know, the

126
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 1: pressure calls, you know, the formation adjustments. So it's it's

127
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,119
Speaker 1: always the little things, the details. So and that's where

128
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 1: you know, as these guys come back in, you know,

129
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: and that's you know, that's the hurdle we gotta get

130
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: over all the same lines. You're talking three wide receivers

131
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: could play together more on Sunday than they have anydividual

132
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: game this season. That timing isn't as simple as they're

133
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: back on the field and it's going to be really

134
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 1: competed to be there. What's the process to re establish

135
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: the time of the death? Yeah, I think it's similarly

136
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: just we talked about with the with the defense in front.

137
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just you know, the spacing separation, you know,

138
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: the challenges that what defenses are playing us so um,

139
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: you know, and I think that's why you always see

140
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: the side work, you know, between the quarterbacks and the

141
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: receivers maybe pre practice, post practice, because you know, you

142
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: get to the end of the year, you're trying to

143
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: cut things down. You're trying to be smart with how

144
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: long on under feet, But it's just getting those you know,

145
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: specific routes, particularly situational throws that you may be throwing.

146
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: You know, you know two concepts of CD maybe just

147
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: only one, no Maury, So just trying to keep those

148
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: detailed because the specialty routes, you know, the off tempo

149
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: you know, throws and particularly the movement phase. You know,

150
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: you don't get a lot of reps at those things

151
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: this time of year, so just trying to stay on

152
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: top of that. Does it take go want to get

153
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: back into a rhythm after coming back? Well, I think,

154
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: let's be honest, I don't think it helps anybody to

155
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: miss you know, five weeks and we're coming out of

156
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: training camp and then to go in. I mean, just

157
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: you just look at the timeline. I think the timeline answers,

158
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: you know, answers to the question and just the challenges

159
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: that you know, he had to go through. What are

160
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: you looking forward to most being back on the sideline.

161
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: There's only fifty sixteen seventeen days for you. How long

162
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: is it seemed since you've been out there. I mean,

163
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: I'm just looking looking forward to being back out there,

164
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: competing with your football team and winning the game. I mean,

165
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: that's that's what it's all about him. It's about days.

166
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: So we put so much time into this and uh,

167
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: like I said, this is an important game, and um yeah,

168
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: I'm just looking forward to the game day. There's nothing

169
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: like game day. Like how Randy and Devil done work

170
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: with good, good, really good. Um, you know, dev Devil's

171
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: really chomping at the bit. I really liked his workload

172
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: yesterday and in the padded in the padded practice. Um,

173
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: you know, Randy's Randy's was dealing with a cold or

174
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,119
Speaker 1: learned a week. So you know, we've been a little

175
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: smart with him as far as the reps. But you know,

176
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: they both look good. I thought, you know, I participate,

177
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: they'll be ready to go come Sunday. Be clear from

178
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: a COVID standpoint. Now, no one else is going on

179
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: thou yeah, yeah, nothing to report today. And when we

180
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: talked you about the Running Game one did before you

181
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: got here, but even going into last year, kind of

182
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,839
Speaker 1: the the RPO was was a foundational element of the

183
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: run game with with Dak and Zeke, and you haven't

184
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: seen it as much this year. Is that because of

185
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: where Dak is and coming off the injury. Is it

186
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: just you're doing some different things in the Run Game

187
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 1: this year. I'm just trying to I mean, I'm just

188
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: thinking going back through the calls, um, you know, I yeah,

189
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: maybe the numbers down a little bit as far as

190
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: being called, but you know, I think, just like anything,

191
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, just because your call, you're not

192
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: always getting thrown either too, so um, you know, yeah,

193
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: I'm not concerned about it and it's still part of

194
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 1: what we do and um so yeah, but I think

195
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: it's fair. I don't. I don't think the numbers were

196
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: attempts are probably what they were in the past. The

197
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: ability today not yet. No good, all right, thank you,
