1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: Question morning, good morning, Uh is a semantic one. I

2
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: mean outside, you look at a lot of the plays

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: that are non traditional if you will, and call them

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: trip plays. I'm curious if you take that same perspective

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: when you're dialing something up and the way you approach

6
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 1: calling non traditional plays, how do you view them? Um,

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: you know that the those plays are the first thing

8
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: you have to do is you have to you have

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: to figure out, um, you know, you can't just close

10
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: your eyes and say, hey, you know, flee flickers good

11
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:45,160
Speaker 1: against everybody, because it isn't you know, or double pass

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: or reverse pass or triple reverse pass or whatever it is.

13
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: You can't. You can't just you know, you have to

14
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: really study the team you're talking about maybe using it against.

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: And there needs to be strong evidence that the reaction

16
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: that you're looking for on the on the play that

17
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: would help you have success is actually what you're going

18
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: to get. And so I think when you find that

19
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: and you really feel comfortable that that's how they're going

20
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: to play something that not, that gives you confidence to

21
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: actually put it in. And then to me, those plays

22
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: are all about, um, you know, you're you're depending on

23
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: some people to do some different things that they're you know,

24
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: not normally doing, but you have to wrap it enough

25
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: to have trust and confidence that the players will do

26
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:40,279
Speaker 1: the right thing in practice and you know a number

27
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: of times over against a number of different looks, so

28
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: that if something you know unique happens on the play,

29
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: we don't end up with something that's a bad play.

30
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: And as soon as you arrive at that place where

31
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: you have confidence in the guys that are doing that,

32
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: which may mean you run it a few times in

33
00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: practice and it doesn't look good and you get nothing

34
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: out of it, but the worst case scenario was it

35
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: was a two yard loss or an incomplete pass. And

36
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: then if you start to build your faith in it

37
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: and your confidence in the guys that are doing it,

38
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 1: and they have confidence in making a good decision under pressure,

39
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: and then I think the risk reward becomes in your

40
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: favor and to me, as soon as you feel like that,

41
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: then you know you can you find the right situation

42
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: in the game to think about using it, and then

43
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: you go ahead and pull the trigger. And really it

44
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: all is about confidence in the guys executing it, and

45
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 1: they deserve all the credit when it works too, because look,

46
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: those plays aren't necessarily the easiest thing in the world

47
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: to do. And like I said, they're asked to do

48
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: some things that are a little different on those plays

49
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: and they need to do them well in order to

50
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: make them go. And the other night we had a

51
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: couple that happen to Workforce and if I can follow

52
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: up the James quite throwing down field, but Kobe, I

53
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: assume it's one of those situations where you're having somebody

54
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: um do something that he's not accustomed to doing it

55
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: in a game, a typical game situation where he's opposed

56
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: to a fleet clicker. It's still in the end Tom

57
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: Brady throwing the fuels yep, yes, and even the fleet

58
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: clicker again, if something, if somebody breaks through the line

59
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: of scrimmage on a play like that, you know, you

60
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: gotta you know, the back has the ball in his

61
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: hands and he's going to try to you know, either

62
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: hand it back or flip it back or whatever. And

63
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: so you know when he has the ball in his

64
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: hands and he's going to then give it to somebody else,

65
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: you know, if there's something wrong, you know up front,

66
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: they blitzed into it or something and happened to hit

67
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: a gap and there's a man in the backfield, then

68
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: again you have to count on him to make a

69
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: great decision on that play as well. But yeah, certainly

70
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: the past that he threw was one of those plays.

71
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: And again, there's not many more dependable guys um that

72
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: we've coached here, Um that we would have more faith

73
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: in making good choice and decisions under pressure than James White.

74
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: Thank you, Josh yep. Next question Evan Lazar to current

75
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Hey Josh, how you doing good? Evan, how are you

76
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: doing good? Thanks? I wanted to ask you just philosophically.

77
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: You have a new acquisition, whether it's a rookie or

78
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: acquiring somebody mid season like Mohammad, how much of a

79
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: learning process is there for the coaching staff of what

80
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: those guys do well and what they can do well

81
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: within what you guys are doing, you know, within the scheme.

82
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: I guess I think it's a it's it's kind of

83
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: a dual process. You know, he's trying to really to

84
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: learn our system in the things that you know he

85
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: may have missed in the off season or training camp

86
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: for all those things that you know, player that's acquired

87
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 1: midseason doesn't get a chance to go through and then

88
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: we're learning the same things about him, like what, you know,

89
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: what he's good at, the things that he does well,

90
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: the way he's been taught, and all the rest of

91
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: those things that go into you know, a player playing

92
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: in your system, in your offense. You know, awards could

93
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: be defense, especialties, whatever it is. I think both parties

94
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 1: are doing the same thing. Um. You know, Mo has

95
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: done a great job of really immersing himself into what

96
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: we're doing. We've learned a lot about Mo in the

97
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: in the time we've had him here, and we're looking

98
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: forward to trying to expand you know, the things he

99
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: does and get him to do the things he feels

100
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 1: good about doing, because I know he can really help

101
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: our team produce as he has already. As far as

102
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: the rookies go, like nikkiel or Jacobe, how much of

103
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: what they did in college can you take and say, Okay,

104
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: we know what they're good at because they excel at X,

105
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: Y and Z in college or is it just a

106
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: completely different game once they get to the pros. It's

107
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: definitely a different game. I mean in every way, shape

108
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: or form. So there's a lot of things that they

109
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 1: that they didn't they didn't see or they didn't have

110
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: to deal with. You know. I mean there's a lot

111
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: of guys in our league that you know, uh, they're

112
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: going to get up and make things tough on you

113
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: no matter what. You know. College football sometimes you don't

114
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: see that much. And but you know, coverage variations, adjustments,

115
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: you know, every team has to go through that with

116
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: their players. But the bottom line is they both have

117
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: good skill sets. The things that they can do we like,

118
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: and I gotta find a I gotta find more ways

119
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: to use the things that they do well so that

120
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: they can help produce more in their own roles. Um.

121
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: And that's what my job is with every player on

122
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: the offense, and I need to do a better job

123
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: of that. Thanks Josh yep Okay, But next question, Tom

124
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: kernin for all body Zach Cox. Hey, Josh, um, my

125
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: question really flows from the NBA. Last answer, what did

126
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: Nikio Harry show you on the twelve yard little flip

127
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 1: that it took, um that you can maybe build on

128
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: and do you sometimes come out of games and say,

129
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't care if it's a Tara

130
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: screen whatever. We need to get the ball in his

131
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: hands in some way to just see what he does

132
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: with it. That that's really it. Certainly he uh, he

133
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: made a great individual effort, you know, broke a tackle

134
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: and then you know had good balance there to finish

135
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: the play and give us an opportunity to score. And um,

136
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, and and he's a big guy. That's you know,

137
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: he's not easy to get to the ground. So um certainly, Um,

138
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: you know when you have players like that. Um, Like

139
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: I said, it's really it comes back to, you know,

140
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 1: how how can you get him to football in those situations? Um,

141
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: understanding that there's a level of diminishing returns if you

142
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: try to keep doing the same things over and over again.

143
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: Meaning you know, there's only so many times you can

144
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: hand you know, a player that's not a running back

145
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: the ball. There's only some times you can throw the

146
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: ball behind a lot of scrimmage. Um, you know, but again,

147
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: you know whatever those are, slants, unders, you know, et cetera.

148
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: You know those plays are all productive plays. Um. When

149
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: you have a guy you know they can they can

150
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: do something with it. Brandon Bolden, you know it's another one.

151
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: I had the ball in his hands the other night,

152
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: and I did a good job of making a play

153
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: and um, so yeah, he definitely had had a great

154
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: individual effort. We know he's big and not easy to tackle,

155
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: and UM, like I said, I need to do a

156
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: better job of finding ways to get him in space,

157
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: get him the ball, and let him have an opportunity

158
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: to do those things. Thank you, yep, because there are

159
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: two final questions that we're gonna go Zack Cox called

160
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: by Mike Freeze. All right, Josh, I just want to

161
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: ask you about your your third down execution. You're often

162
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: only converted seventeen third down in the half game out

163
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: with the lowest rate we've we've seen from your team

164
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: in a while. I was just wondering, in your view,

165
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: what factors contributed to that and what can you do

166
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: to pick that moving forward? Yeah, well, I mean it

167
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: third downs a third down is is what it is

168
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: in our league. It's a it's a tough down. You

169
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: have to get a certain number of yards. That's why

170
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 1: it's different than every other down. UM, and we uh,

171
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 1: you know, our execution and what we're trying to do

172
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: and get done on those plays is really um, you

173
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 1: know it's got to be Uh, that's that's the most

174
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: important UM play of the series. And you know at

175
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: that point in time, first down, second down, and then

176
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, here you go. You gotta make

177
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: you know, seven yards or five yards or ten yards

178
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 1: or whatever it is to continue moving to football. So, um,

179
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: you know, everything's important on their down. You know, pre

180
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: snap communication, ability to handle pressure, pass protection, coverage reads

181
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: by the quarterback, and the skilled players throwing, catching, running

182
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,839
Speaker 1: with the ball after you have it, blocking, if it's

183
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 1: a run play that you happen to, uh, you know,

184
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: choose to use. Um, there's no small detail, there's nothing

185
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: that's unimportant on their down. And that's why it's so difficult.

186
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: So every every every play you call, everything you design

187
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: needs to be well thought out and well organized and uh,

188
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: you know, your players have to feel good about what

189
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: they're doing. And then we got to go out there

190
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: and execute it under pressure against a multitude of different looks, pressures, coverages, variations.

191
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: You know, the other night they had a number of

192
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: snaps where they try to double multiple players and then

193
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: you know we're gonna you know, we have to we

194
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: have to come through in in other situations. So, um,

195
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 1: you know, it's a it's a tough down. Um, our

196
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: guys are working real hard at it. We're gonna work

197
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: real hard at it again to try to improve in

198
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: that area. Um. You know, and and so we you know,

199
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: we need to take advantage of the opportunities that we have,

200
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 1: and we need to continue to do the fundamental things

201
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: right um, pre snap and post snap on that down

202
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: in order to give us the best chance to have

203
00:10:54,280 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: success it. Yep. Last question, um, josh a two partner here. Um,

204
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: just to build up what Tom Kerran asked about Nikkil?

205
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 1: What have you seen from Nikkil? You know that maybe

206
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: has shown him some progress that he's made in weeks.

207
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: It's almost like he just finished a preseason if I

208
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: have it right, you know, with the four games and

209
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: then the Bengals on Sunday, I'd be curious as you

210
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: start to get into them what challenges they present. Yep. Yeah, Nikkil, Um,

211
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: you know number one, he his his ability to understand

212
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: you know, our system, our offense and how you know,

213
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: the roles we ask him to play in it, you know,

214
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: is different than it was three months ago because now

215
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: he has a much broader foundation of it. Um. The

216
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: communication is much easier. Um. He works his butt off,

217
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,119
Speaker 1: you know, every day in practice and he's he's here early's,

218
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: he's here late, and he's trying to you know, close

219
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: the ground on being able to go out there and

220
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: understand who he's playing against, UM and what he needs

221
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: to do to be successful. And and there's no shortcut

222
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: to all that. We know that, UM. But I think

223
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,479
Speaker 1: he's got a great attitude. UM. I think that he has,

224
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: you know, a skill set that can certainly help us

225
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: produce and win. And we need to, like I said,

226
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: I need to do a better job of trying to

227
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: find a way to get him the ball and get

228
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: him involved, UM, so that he can do some of

229
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: those things, uh, and do more of them. UM. Cincinnati's

230
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 1: an aggressive team, one gap style on defense. I'm really

231
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: built on penetration pressure to create negative plays and long

232
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: yarded situations for for the offense that they're playing against. UM.

233
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: They really got a disruptive front four and sometimes it's

234
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: five if they're in their base defense with you know,

235
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: Hubbard and Dunlap on the edge, two big long guys

236
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: Atkins we know as a very disruptive player inside. UM.

237
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: Those guys, you know, between the three of them, I

238
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 1: think have one hundred and twenty pressures and almost twenty sacks,

239
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: and they're they're a group that's you know, it's there.

240
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: They have unique play style. They're different, you know, Like

241
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: I said, one of Gino's really shortcompact and explosive, and

242
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: then the other two are really long, UM tall guys

243
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 1: that have good movement skills as well and can impress

244
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: the pocket and can also be a little squarely on

245
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: the edge. Um. You know they they run well. Uh

246
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: you know in the second area that linebacker UM Sean

247
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: Williams is down near the front a lot of the

248
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: time in the game and certainly leads their team and

249
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 1: tackle of I believe for a reason. Because he's near

250
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: the front, you got to block him on every snap

251
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: and that isn't easy. That's a chore. Um. And and

252
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: they you know, they do a good job. LU does

253
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 1: a great job of of really changing up the coverage schemes,

254
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: what they're doing, how they play. Um, they're different. Blitz

255
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: packages is a team that will blitz everybody. Everybody will

256
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: get a turn to to make some disruptive plays, which

257
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: is always a challenge to your communication and ability to

258
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: handle those situations. Well. So, um a team we don't know,

259
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: you know, we we've played him in the past, and

260
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: some of the guys we know, but there's an awful

261
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: lot of guys that we don't know that we need

262
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: to get familiar with quickly and do a good job

263
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: of studying how they play and what they do so

264
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: that we can avoid them putting us in, you know,

265
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: disruptive situations and long yardage plays on offense on Sunday,

266
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: So big preparation ahead of us. Excited to get started

267
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: on them, looking forward to the challenge. Thanks Josh Yep,

268
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Josh Yep. Thank guys,
