1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,600 Speaker 1: All right, guys, So Wednesday, we've turned the page from 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: last week. We're onto Baltimore today, full all of our focus, 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 1: all our concentration going forward. Obviously, it's been a very 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: successful organization. Uh. Since John's got there, they've done a 5 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: tremendous job. You know, it starts with the defense and 6 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,600 Speaker 1: the kicking game and the running game of how they 7 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,959 Speaker 1: control the pace of the game and the physicality. You 8 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 1: have to have a lot of respect for the attitude 9 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: they play with as a team, and that's really you know, 10 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: transitioned within the different rosters and coach that came on through. 11 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: But John's really kept that constant with his own mentality 12 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: and how he's built the team. You talk about them 13 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: on each phase of the game. I think you gotta 14 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,639 Speaker 1: start with John on special teams and Chris is the coordinator. 15 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: He's doing a phenomenal job form right now. They've got 16 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: a very explosive corps. They have great specialists, you know, 17 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: with Tucker and Sam and Uh. I think these guys 18 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: playing on the field that's a little bit shorter than 19 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: our opponents, with the ability that Justin has and when 20 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,599 Speaker 1: they crossed the fifty, you have a shot to kick 21 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: long field goals with his accuracy and leg strength. So 22 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: you know, obviously do a good job defending these guys 23 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: on defense to keep them off those short fields. But 24 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: they do a tremendous job with it. Their coverage units 25 00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: are you know, top of the league. They do a 26 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: great a job in a return game to Vernet is 27 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: doing a great job as an explosive return and the 28 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: kickoff return game, we're gonna have to have a big 29 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: priority this week. I'm playing with good physical fundamentals and 30 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: playing sound and alert in the kicking game. You know, 31 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: talking about their defense, Wink does a great job at 32 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: really spending the dial. It's all about the pressure with 33 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: these guys. You know, he manages to have a lot 34 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: of combinations of blitzes and pressures throughout the game. You know, 35 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: everyone gets a swing in the bat, as we say, 36 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: with them, you know, it's corners, it's safeties, it's nickels, 37 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: it's linebackers. You know, it's one at a time, it's 38 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: two at a time, it's all of them coming. They'll 39 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: play cover zero and then they'll drop into max coverage 40 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: and change it up on your right there. So you've 41 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: got to be alert. But it's all about communicating pre snap, 42 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 1: and you've got to go ahead and make sure you're 43 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: playing all one page as a unit. They do a 44 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: great job of spending the dial, you know, in terms 45 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: of their offense. You know, when it comes to Greg, 46 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna find a way to scheme you up in 47 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: the run game and create explosive plays on the ground. 48 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: And this this a physical team. It all obviously starts 49 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: with the quarterback, and this guy's, you know, a different 50 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: type of player in the league. You've asked me a 51 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: lot the last few weeks about mobile quarterbacks and is 52 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: there a transition? You know, I think this guy is 53 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: a unicorn in terms of how he can play and 54 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: how he really makes explosive plays with his legs as 55 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: along with the arm strength and the plays down the 56 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: field he's capable of making right there. Um, you know, 57 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: you talk about their skill group as well, and their backs. 58 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: Everybody's capable at any point of breaking a huge explosive play. 59 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: They play tough. They've been banged up throughout the year, 60 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: but they're well coached. Their offensive lines playing well right now. 61 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: You know, you're talking about as a team the Aves 62 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: who went through that three weeks stretch where they played 63 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: on you know, kind of not normal weeks, short schedules, 64 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: a long schedules. You know, guys being pulled out for 65 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: COVID where the reason is obviously they're getting guys back 66 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: now healthy, they're really hitting their stride. This is a 67 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: very good team. It's gonna take everything we had to 68 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: prepare for and we have to have our best on Sunday. 69 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: So that being set will open up any questions you have. 70 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: We'll start with anyone who regularly covers the Ravens. If 71 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: you haven't already, please raise your hand. Daniel, Hey, Joe, Um, 72 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: Daniel you fuci from the bottom of son excuse me? 73 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: You and um John Harby are one of very few 74 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: head coaches in the league who have like a strict 75 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: and um, you know, main special teams coordinator background. Um 76 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: just do you have any any relationship have you met John? 77 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: And um? Just with the way hiring practices are kind 78 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: of leaning in the lead in the league with offensive coaches, 79 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: I mean, do you do you find that a lot 80 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: of special teams coaches maybe kind of overlooked for these roles. 81 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: I don't want to get into too much of the 82 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: hiring of who's overlooked. Whoever, maybe I've always been told 83 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 1: if you're good, they'll find you. Obviously, John was a 84 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: very accomplished coach himself. He coach defensive backs for a year, 85 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: but he was obviously one of the top special teams 86 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: coach for a long time, and his units over the 87 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 1: last decade, you know, have been in the top groups 88 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: the entire league. Uh. They make explosive game changing plays. 89 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: It's blocking kicks, returning kicks. His teams play tough and 90 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: fundamentally sound. The one thing I think that he does 91 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: a tremendous job, and I think it ties into the 92 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: kicking game background, is when guys coming to the program 93 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: and you look at the evolution of the roster, you 94 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: see a lot of younger players who start off in 95 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: the kicking game and become good core players, and you 96 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: look forward two years from then and how the impact 97 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: they're making on offense or defense, and how they hang 98 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: around the roster and just keep replacing players who may 99 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: have lost, you know, they may have lost through free 100 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: agency or just aged out. Um. But that's something always 101 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: stands out to me about his program and how he's 102 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: built it. They truly developed their players on a roster. 103 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: They have a great personnel department. You know, obviously Ozz 104 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: he's not doing it anymore, but they've continued with the 105 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: same pattern how they build the team, and I think 106 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: the way they identify guys maybe a little b under 107 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: the radar and then develop them within their program. This 108 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: is definitely a team you watched through the preseason. They 109 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: always have a couple of guys that you say, Okay, 110 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 1: they can't keep all these linebackers. Surely someone's gonna be available, 111 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: and they find a way to keep the guys that 112 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: are impact players, and it helps them throughout the course 113 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: of not only their special teams, but it keeps their 114 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: defense developing over time as well. He may not look 115 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: at a daughter from Ravens of Spanish radio. UH coach 116 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: Joey josh One Advice has built Buddy Check giving you 117 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: about being a head coach in the NFL. Yeah, I 118 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: think the biggest thing is just be yourself. You know, 119 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: trust what you've learned through the process of ever we've 120 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: worked as an assistant. Take what fits your personality and philosophy, 121 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: and then make it your own. You can't try to 122 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: be anybody else. And you know I've taken time to 123 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,799 Speaker 1: talk to you know, him and coach Saban, coach Croom, 124 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: coach Cheryl and other coach that I've worked under in 125 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: the past and pick their brains on it. And the 126 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: one thing that unanimous is they all come back to 127 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: be yourself. And that's something I think I'm kind of 128 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: good at doing. You know, I'm not gonna try and 129 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: do anything, you know, outside of my own personality, and 130 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: that's kind of been good enough. And we've got to 131 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: make sure that we do better on a lot of 132 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: things though, Aaron Joe Um the Ravens there averaging game 133 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: over the last three weeks, whatever you said, seen them 134 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: do differently these three weeks that maybe they weren't doing before. 135 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: I think a lot of it ties into the health 136 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: of the team to get their players back. These guys 137 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: are very, very talented and very physical, you know, with 138 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: these guys that all starts up front with the run, 139 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: you know, and you've got to stop the run. Now 140 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: that's a lot easier said than done. Now when you 141 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: talk about this quarterback, I'm sure everyone every week says 142 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: we've got to, you know, eliminate this guy's plays or 143 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: limit how he makes plays. The fact is you just 144 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: got tip back in the fundamentals, he's going to have runs. 145 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: You have to do a good job to hackling space. 146 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: He's gonna throw the ball down the field. You have 147 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: to play in phase with the receivers and try to 148 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: eliminate the explosive plays down the field. You know, Greg 149 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: does a great job of scheme and teams up. Like 150 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: I said, initially, it's all going to come through the 151 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: run game at first, but that's gonna tie into the 152 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: pass game to play actions and then if you know, 153 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: Lamar can extend it with his legs, which he is 154 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: obviously very very capable of doing, he can go ahead 155 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: and really give you headaches, either by pulling it down 156 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: and running or throwing the thing over your head down 157 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: the field. So you know, in terms of what they're 158 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: doing differently, Uh, they've obviously had a lot more success 159 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: with the pass game as of late, but I don't 160 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: see that it has been anything different with what they're 161 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: doing schematically. I think it's just something that's been a 162 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: strength of this team all along, and now they're healthy again. 163 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: Dougan A, Joe, where do things day with Daniel and 164 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: what do you like to see him do today at practice? Yeah, 165 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: we'ren't throwing through practice today tomorrow and see where he's at. Look. 166 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: In a perfect world, i'd love to have an answer 167 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: as soon as possible. I'm not gonna go ahead and 168 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: set a time mark on this, but we'll come out 169 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: of Friday Friday after practice some kind of answer. But 170 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: we're just gonna throw him out there, let him practice, 171 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: see how he does. We've got good feedback from him 172 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: and the trainers, but again, we'll have to put him 173 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: out there and see how he's moving around today. Oh. Sorry, ahead, 174 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: that's fine. I was gonna say with hard but I 175 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: don't think answered the part of the question. You have 176 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: a relationship with him? Did you talk to him at 177 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: all about going for special teams? Coordinated head coach? You know, 178 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that we're very close. I have a 179 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: tremendous amount of respect for John. It's a small league, 180 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: so you know who guys are out there. I've obviously 181 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: followed his career and studied him from what he's done 182 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: in special teams. There's some common links. Um, I worked 183 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: for a guy named Scotty O'Brien. He's actually close with Scotty. Uh. 184 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: There's a lot of similarities and what I've kind of 185 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: learned special teams wise, and when I see his teams, 186 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: do you kind of watch some schemes sometimes and you say, Okay, 187 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: we called it, you know whatever. We may have called it, 188 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: and they may have a different name of the same scheme. 189 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: But there's a lot of concepts within the fundamentals and 190 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: philosophy and the situational stuff that applied both ways. Uh, 191 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: A ton of respect for him as a coach. He's 192 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: obviously done a great job building this team and the 193 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: way he wants to. We talked about building a bully, 194 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: building a physical team, you know, starting the run game, 195 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: of physical defense, and controlling the field position, the kicking game, 196 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: and they really prioritize, you know, what he really learned 197 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: as being a special teams coach in terms of having 198 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: elite specialists and having good core to help win that 199 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: field position. Thanks Joe. Are the Ravens that the type 200 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: of franchise that you want the Giants to become? Yeah, 201 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: I'm not going to compais to any other type of organization, um, 202 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: but I think they have demonstrated level of consistency and 203 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: excellence in this league and how they've played it. I 204 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: like the way they've built this team to be a 205 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: physical team. I like the way they developed their players. 206 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things that you can 207 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: look around the league and study different organizations and teams 208 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: of how they've had success over time. Um, they're far 209 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: from the only team that I look at in terms 210 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: of how they manage their roster, developed their players, and 211 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: how they build in terms of how they practice on 212 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: a weekly basis and how they gain plan. Uh. You 213 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: try to study everyone in the league and kind of 214 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: make sure that you're not missing out on anything. But 215 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying to amount of respect for him. That being said, 216 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna, you know, throw anything out there. We 217 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: want to be like this organization, that organization. We want 218 00:08:55,240 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: to be the New York Giants. Kim Johnson, Hey, Joel, 219 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 1: it's Kim um at high. I asked John Harball a 220 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: few minutes ago if he believes in an AHA moment 221 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: when you find your franchise quarterback, and he kind of 222 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: laughed and said he thinks he had it just a 223 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: couple of games into that two thousand eighteen season with Lamar. Uh. 224 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: Do you believe that you'll have that moment or do 225 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: you think you've already had that moment with Daniel Jones. 226 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's an AHA moment. I'm not 227 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: saying that. You know, he's wrong to have had his 228 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: own AHA moment. To me, it's a string of moments, um. 229 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: You know, watching Daniel work, watching the respect he has 230 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: in the locker room, watching him approved throughout this season, 231 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: I think he's demonstrated level of toughness and leadership, all right, 232 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: and knowledge on the field that gives us confidence put 233 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: him out there and build with Daniel. So I'm not 234 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: gonna point to one moment, but I can talk about 235 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: this entire season of this guy has definitely earned my respect, 236 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: all right. Um, I kind of made it very hard 237 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: on from the beginning in a lot of ways, and 238 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: he hasn't blinked. And he's your guy, like as you 239 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: if you we get a second and a half to 240 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: think about next year, he's your quarterback. Daniel Jones is 241 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: our quarterback. Thank you. Let's say two more shorts and 242 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: art shorts. Hey Joe, hey, Paul, you just mentioned Lamar 243 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: Jackson's a unicorn. There aren't many of those. Actually, my 244 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: neighbor has went outside is uh front steps, but there 245 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: aren't many of those in the NFL um um because 246 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 1: he's a unicorn. You know, the Detroit Pistons had the 247 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: Jordan's rules for Michael Jordan's. Is Lamar Jackson that special. 248 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: I mean, you played Russell Wilson and Kyler Um, you 249 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: know Murray, but Lamar Jackson seems like a different cat. 250 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: Do you have to have special rules in place to 251 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: go against him? Well, I think with any of these quarterbacks, Paul, 252 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: you have to go in the game and try to 253 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: find ways of helping your team by trying to find 254 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: a way to make them play left hand if you would. Um. 255 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: That's again that's easier said than done. I think when 256 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: it comes down to him, it comes down to being 257 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: discipline and fundamentally sound. You have to feel a tackle 258 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: in space. That's the biggest thing I'll tell you. You know, 259 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: we played him last year and I told team this morning. 260 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: The thing I came away from that game, you know, saying, 261 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: was I didn't realize he was that fast. You see 262 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: him on tape run away from guys, you know he's fast, 263 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: But when you see guys in person and you watch 264 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: him athletically up close, that's sometimes when you have to 265 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: realize that, Okay, this guy is a lot better than 266 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: I thought he was on tape, and you had a 267 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: tremendous found respect for him on tape. Um. But you 268 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: look at this team of how much they outscore teams 269 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: in the first quarter, I think a lot of that 270 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: as the teams are not ready to go, not that 271 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: they weren't prepared, but they're not truly ready to go 272 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: because they're surprised by the speed or they're not you know, 273 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: prepared or mentally ready for the schemes are gonna see. 274 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: So when you talk about this offense, you have to 275 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: be ready to go from the jump. You can't go 276 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: in there, dip your toe in the water and say, Okay, 277 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 1: we'll get a feel for how this game is gonna go, 278 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: because by the time you get a feel for it, 279 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: they got twenty one points on you. Do you have anybody, 280 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: a receiver of somebody who can practice consimulate that. We've 281 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: got a number of guys we've talked about actually, and 282 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 1: we'll do our best in practice to try to simulate him, 283 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: you know, running around and create some tackling drills and 284 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: things of that nature. Um. But there's a difference betwe 285 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: you know someone imitatum and the real thing. Thank you, 286 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: that's here art, Hey, Joe, I was basically all the 287 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: things Paul did. But in addition to that, as far 288 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: as simulation goes, I know the string of quarterbacks that 289 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: you faced. But as far as the sudden speed and 290 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 1: the way to accelerate, is Lamar similar to what you 291 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: guys faced in Kyler and the fact that you faced 292 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: Kyler just a couple of weeks ago, at least your 293 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: guys have seen it in in game that kind of speed. 294 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: Does that translate it all or is it a completely 295 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: different animal. I think you can make the common link 296 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: and that they're both very effective with their legs. They 297 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 1: can both extend plays, they can run down the field, 298 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: and they have great vision instincts. But I think there's 299 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: a different running style with them. You know, like we 300 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: have to talk all the time, you know, in evaluating players. 301 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: What kind of receiver is he's a straight line size 302 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: speed receiver? Is he a you know, quicker than fast 303 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: receiver shifting in space? How they fit those dynamics? To me? 304 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: When I look at Lamar, I mean this guy, he's 305 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: a tough, tough runner. I'm not sayingything about any other 306 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: quarterback and just say, when you watch this guy run, 307 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: he's not looking to slide, he's not looking to get 308 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: out of bounds. This guy is looking to extend plays. 309 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 1: And when he gets going, you can tell scores the 310 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: only thing on his mind. Um he's got a wiggle 311 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: to him at full speed. That's very rare, you know. 312 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: It's kind of like trying to tackle Gumby and this 313 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: guy can just change direction, it's all. You know. It's 314 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: almost like his body moves in ways that you can't 315 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: simulate in practice. But this guy is extremely fast. He 316 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: hits that top gear and just a couple of steps 317 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: at the same time, he can stop on a diamond, 318 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: change directions. This guy's got great running instincts. You know, 319 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: you watch tape of all the teams they've played. It's 320 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: not like those teams haven't watched tape as well and said, 321 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: this guy can really run and this is how he 322 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 1: does it. It's just you've got to prepare as best 323 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: you can with your team to simulate those cutbacks and 324 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: that acceleration. Again, there's not a lot of guys like this. Okay, 325 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: if we had a guy like this on our team, 326 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: I'm sure we'd find a way to put the ball 327 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: in his hands too. So we got to find a 328 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: different combination of guys in different you know, parts of 329 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 1: practice to simulate different aspects of what he does as 330 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: a player. And then our guys have to do a 331 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: really good job of watching tape and then understanding he's 332 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: gonna come down to the fund of mentals we play 333 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: with in space on him that will help us make plays. 334 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: M m m
