1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: Start with Mike Reefs and encourage others to raise your head.

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: Good morning bill. Um, we're going to start on the

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: on side kick and the recovery. Um, the way that unfolded.

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: What what you what were your thoughts on that? Uh? Well, again,

5
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,799
Speaker 1: the Jets, you know, do a real good job in

6
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: the kicking game. They're very good on situational plays. Uh.

7
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,639
Speaker 1: Both um Man d zero Line have onside kicked, so

8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: there's kind of a lot to prepare for there. We

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: took a time out um prior to the kick. Uh,

10
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: once we sort of saw what was happening. Um, But

11
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: really it was a very good kick by zero Line,

12
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: you know where it looked like it was going to

13
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: go to our right and then he kicked it back

14
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: over the left. It's a really good play by Peppers.

15
00:00:54,600 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: So um, yeah, they're probably one of the best on

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: site kicked teams we faced in quite a while. And

17
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 1: it's really just an outstanding play by by our unit.

18
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 1: Peppers was really at the point of attack and he

19
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: came through with a big time you know, shortstop play there.

20
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: But um, it was well designed by the Jets and

21
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: and um, i'd say well played on our end. They

22
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: did a similar thing against Cleveland when they recovered that one,

23
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: you know, to go on and win the game. Um,

24
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: so it looked like it was going to go to

25
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: our right. And then since her line made a very

26
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: deceptive kick. And I think if I heard you right,

27
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: you said a short stop play by Peppers, it's that

28
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: like a reference to getting it on the hop like

29
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: a short stop in baseball. Well, yeah, getting his body

30
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: in front of the ball and playing the ball and

31
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: not you know, reaching out for it, but you know,

32
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: moving into the position so he could keep it in

33
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: front of him and play the uh play like a

34
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: short sun Next next question Nicko Marley folled by Chris Ryan.

35
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: Hey bill, I also want to ask about Jabrill and

36
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 1: his impact in yesterday's game, both increased role on defense

37
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: and um saw that he also got some praise from

38
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: the coach Rey Scepter. He had a key block on

39
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: Marcus George's return. Um. How how impactful was his increased

40
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: role yesterday in the game. Yeah, I thought Jabrill had

41
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: had stable big plays for us and physical plays. Um

42
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: so yeah, good good, uh good? Uh you know see

43
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 1: that production out there, have him out there, and uh,

44
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: you know, he helped us in the kicking game, and

45
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: he certainly helped us on defensively against the run and

46
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: the pass and on the past rush. So um, yeah,

47
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: just good. Good to have him on the We're always

48
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: aware that he had those sort of like quick hands

49
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: that he's short in the short stop play, oh for sure. Yeah.

50
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: You know they at Michigan they used him quite a

51
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: bit offensively and and you know he sees your turn kicks,

52
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: handled the ball. Well, he's got he's got real good

53
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: ball skills. That's why we had him on that unit.

54
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 1: Next question, Chris, Ryan, fallbury Field, perre Morn and Bill

55
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: are you all right good? Chris? Um want to ask

56
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: you about Andre a little bit and what advancements have

57
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: you seen from him, you know, both in terms of

58
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: past protection and also in the passing game over the

59
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: last season. Yeah. Andre just gets better every day. Um.

60
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: He's one of the say on one of the guys

61
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: that that I've coached that really has shown just continuous improvement. Um,

62
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: almost every day walks into the building and um, you know,

63
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: whether it's just in every phase of the game, Um,

64
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: his kids really really come a long way, and and

65
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: just every part of his game. You know, you mentioned

66
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: some of the things in the passing game awareness or

67
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: oute running, let's pick up recognition, getting out on you know,

68
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: fake blitzes and versus reading, difference between fake blitzes and blitzes.

69
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: And in the running game is patience and setting up

70
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: blocks and running on the second level, and stiff arm

71
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: and contact balance, ball security, I mean, you name it. Um,

72
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 1: you know, I have a ton of respect for the

73
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: way he's worked at his game and improved his training habits.

74
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: He still got a ways to go, but he just

75
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: gets better at at all the things he works at

76
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: every day, and he's got a long list of them,

77
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: but he's he's made made significant progress and in so

78
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: many areas. Um, it's really really been impressive. In a

79
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: tough divisional game like that one. How important is it

80
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: for you know, players to set the tone with their

81
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: physicality because I thought, you know, we mentioned Peppers earlier.

82
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: His physicality I thought made a big difference on the

83
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: defensive side of the well when more and the big run,

84
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: you know, he gets met by a tackler on the line,

85
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: he fights through that Does that, in your view kind

86
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: of set the tone across the board? Well for sure? Yeah,

87
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: that's uh, you know, we knew this is going to

88
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: be a physical game, and you know, coming off a

89
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: short week, you know, I think our guys really really

90
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: try to gear up for it and play to it.

91
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, all the way across the board, this is

92
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 1: the Jets are a very physical team, and their their

93
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: defense is you know, very active and physical defense. Um.

94
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 1: You know, they're well coached and and they have a

95
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: aggressive group of guys out there, and so you know,

96
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: I thought, well, look, there number of times where they

97
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: got us, but I'd say we, you know, at least

98
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: fought and competed against them. And you know we made

99
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: a few plays there too. Um. You know, we were

100
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: able to clean out the pocket and make it some

101
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: space on a couple of scrambles and guys running with

102
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: the ball in their hands, you know, even John who

103
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: on the on the kickoff return, uh, you know, breaking

104
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: a couple of tackles there to get the ball up,

105
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, past the thirty five yard line from field positions.

106
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: So you know, a lot of little things, but they

107
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: all they all add up. Thanks appreciate what Chris and excretion,

108
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: Phil Perry fall right get quarter Rangel may Bill. Last night,

109
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: the team posted a video from inside the locker room,

110
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: and it looked like the players had a pretty strong

111
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: reaction to your three hundred twenty fifth win last night.

112
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to ask you what it meant

113
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: to you to get get the reaction that you did

114
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 1: from the players. I'm very appreciative of it. Yeah, Yeah,

115
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: I mean our team is been great. They've worked hard,

116
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: they've they've done what we've asked him to do, and

117
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: certainly satisfying to go on the road and beat the Jets,

118
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, we're all happy in the locker room.

119
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, I appreciate it. Makes like the last question,

120
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: will we declarino? Hey Bill, just wondering if you have

121
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: any initial observations on Sam Ellinger, whether you studied him

122
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: at all, who was coming out of college. Yeah, I

123
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: think we'll just save that for later in the week here,

124
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: after we've had a little more time to work on that.

125
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, we're definitely familiar with Sam, but just really

126
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: kind of concentrating on the Jets. Here are these last

127
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: six days, thank YEA or a couple more hands raised,

128
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: or we'll finish with two final questions, Phil Perry and

129
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: Mike Greece, Hey Bill, So yeah, just kind of a

130
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: couple of the game him quickly, but one wanted to

131
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: ask you about Hunter's ability to block in the open field.

132
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, obviously in the touchdown he had

133
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: a big block there, and then, um, it looked like

134
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: it was maybe a screenplay on the second third down

135
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: conversion that Jacobe had early in the game there where

136
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: it looked like he had a block there that was important.

137
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: And then just want to ask about the fourth down

138
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: play again it was targeted to Jacobe. He said after

139
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: the game that the Jets just played that one really well.

140
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: Was that was that a design run maybe for Mac

141
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: that kind of turned into a passer. Just wanted to

142
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 1: ask you about that play if there was any consideration

143
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: there for for going with the field goal there. Thank you. Yeah.

144
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: Trying to keep them all straight as that's six questions,

145
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: are phil Um not processing them all here right now?

146
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: All right? That's all right? All right? So Hunter's downfield

147
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 1: block in the first run that Mare had where he

148
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: u you know, broke the tackle by Williams that the

149
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and Hunter made a made a good

150
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: block on the safety. It was about a fifteen yard run. Um. Yeah,

151
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: so one hundred did a good job on that. You know,

152
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: on Jacoby's catching run on a third down a long

153
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: conversion one hundred more, both made made key blocks there

154
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: where we kind of caught the ball short and then

155
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: ran you know, Cod picked up the first down on

156
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 1: their sideline. Yeah, there was a number of good, you know,

157
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: good plays downfield, blocking outthred our receivers and tight ends

158
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: really tried to compete there. John who you know as

159
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: always has some tough matchups there on the line of

160
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: scrimmage against those defensive ends, but you know he fought

161
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: them well there. And uh yeah, on the touchdown, it

162
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: was you know, a different play but sort of a

163
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: similar play to the other fourth and one, a little

164
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: different version of it. And you know, Jets did a

165
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: great job of covering the fourth and one play. We

166
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: had some options on the play and they really did

167
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,719
Speaker 1: a good job of taking them all away. And then

168
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: on the fourth and one touchdown and it worked out

169
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: where you know, Joe Jacoby was free and you know

170
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: we're able to hit it there. So that's a big

171
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: play for us. Thank you. The last question to make Greece, um,

172
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you just about Mac and just

173
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: his playing a full game for the first time since

174
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: Week three. I mean, what was the most encouraging thing

175
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: that you saw from his performance? Yeah? I thought I

176
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: acted a nice job. You know, we had pressure on

177
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: on quite a few past plays, more than we would

178
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: like for sure, and I thought it made good decisions

179
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: and I had to pull the ball down a couple

180
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: of times and made some key, key runs for us.

181
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: And there was some you know, the Jets gave us

182
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: some some looks on the line of scrimmage that he

183
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: had to deal with in the running game. I thought

184
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: he handled those well. So um, I thought he gave

185
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: us a lot of good plays. Who's your favorite shortstop

186
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: growing up? There was a lot of good ones. Yeah,

187
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: you know, I have to go with gar here in

188
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: a long haul. Not that I was growing up then,

189
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: but you know, be hard to put anybody out of gear.

190
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: I like Dazy Smith and like the back flip when

191
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: he would come on the field. That was one of

192
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: Tony's guys, right, Yeah, it was a lot of There

193
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: was a lot of good shortstops back in the day.

194
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: These guys can handle the ball. I'm telling you, they

195
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: can handle it and throw it. It's impressive watch a

196
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: major league baseball infield work, and they make it looks

197
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: so easy. It's so hard and they make it look

198
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: so easy. So yeah, all right, thanks Mike, Yeah you
