1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Offensive line is gonna look a little different for the

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: first time this year. But yeah, no, it's I feel

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: I feel like, um, you know, I've said all along,

4
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: I felt like we've had two starting centers on a roster,

5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: and so you give Spencer an opportunity to get in

6
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: there and play. He played very, very, really well forced

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: last year when he was in there, and then, um,

8
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: you know, Nick Gates has done done a really good job.

9
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: So uh, in the event he's playing in there, which

10
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 1: you probably will be, Um, I feel like he'll do

11
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 1: a good job your backup center. Uh, well he's Nick

12
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: has actually played played center as well, and we'll just

13
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 1: have to see from there. Shake around, we have to

14
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: check it around. Yeah, and there's always the possibility we

15
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: could make a move here in the next couple of days.

16
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: Why no music at practice this week. Uh, it's just

17
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 1: just wasn't working, right, that's all. We just decided not

18
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: to do it. That's all. Any other changes, you mean,

19
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: it seems like there's some of the pactics might have

20
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: been a little bit shorter. You did a job to

21
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,119
Speaker 1: one of the days. No, I mean that that was Wednesday.

22
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: You know, we weren't we weren't even twenty. You know,

23
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: we were less than two days out from the game.

24
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: That's why everything pass Wednesday is exactly like it's been

25
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: every week, so nothing's been shorter. In fact, most of

26
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: it have been a little bit longer. Quite frankly, we

27
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: have two tight ends. Comfortable with that, I guess, yes,

28
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: I am. You know are you always have flexibility and

29
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: offense to get into other groupings if some reason you

30
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: have to, and um, you always have the flexibility to

31
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: use extra offensive lineman as extra tight ends if you

32
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: have to as well. So well, he he plays anyways,

33
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: you know, but he's he's well, he's a fullback, so

34
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: but yeah, he'll he'll be part of the plan about

35
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: Olivia and Bell might separate him from some of the

36
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: other reliague backs in this league. Well, I think he's

37
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: got a uh, he's got excellent vision. He's got a

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: very patient style as a runner, you know, so you

39
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: know we've seen that and he's kind of it's kind

40
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: of patented that move as he gets to the line

41
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. You know, he you know, they do a

42
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: good job if they can get good separation. You know,

43
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: he can be real patient and find the crease which

44
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: I think is you know, it's a unique in some

45
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: ways to the way his running style. Um, he catches

46
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: the ball well, and he's obviously a very good blocker

47
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: and pass protection. So he's a three down back that

48
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: has the ability to make guys miss and score touchdowns.

49
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: It's almost been like two years since and Bill's played

50
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: the game and tackling me. What can we expect on him? Well,

51
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna go out and perform. Well, you know,

52
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: I think, Um, he's a young player and it's not

53
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: his fault. He's been hurt and he's back on the

54
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: active roster and you'll see him in the game set.

55
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: We really haven't seen practice somewhere. Yeah. Yeah, Well, he's

56
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: his movement skills are are outstanding. Um, you know, he's

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: got a good feel for what we're doing on defense,

58
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: and um, you know, we'll let everybody does start to

59
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: decide what type of players by watching him play. But

60
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: you know, he's he's has he has ability to cover, um,

61
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: you know, and as a college player, you know, he

62
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: was a good tackler as well. So we'll just we'll

63
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: just see on Sunday. Does he have to kind of

64
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: get wet on special teams or the defense. He's ready

65
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: to play on defense, and you know he'll have an

66
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: immediate role to some degree on teams for sure. There

67
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: was a report a couple of days ago that you

68
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: gave a speech to the team about a sense of urgency,

69
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: especially in this team. Surious how your players have reacted

70
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: to You know, I I think I'm always urgent and

71
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 1: I'm always in the mode to uh to win and

72
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: do what we have to win. UM, what I tell

73
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: the team is for that's that's internal, So I don't

74
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: know where the reports come from. UM. I'm very open

75
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: and honest with the team at all times about the

76
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: things I think are important. And you know, we gotta

77
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: do the things necessary to win a game, and we

78
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: as coaches try to do what we can to coach

79
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 1: and inspire them to not only do it on the

80
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: practice field, but have a show up on Sunday. P J.

81
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: Hills saying two more, you know roll ups, you ever

82
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: do a lot of Monday nights that someone has to

83
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: kind of give you a man that with Leonard or

84
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: just match up days or where where is the sayings?

85
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 1: Now he's in the rotation like all our guys, and

86
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: you know, there's you know, you probably can do the

87
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: math and counted up each week and maybe a little

88
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: bit different. But you know, we're not diminishing his role

89
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: in any way. But we added you know, Leo and

90
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: he's he's can play different positions. Certainly you ma can

91
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: changes that linebacker at all. Are you going to stay

92
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: with the guys? No, there's not much change to make.

93
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: Mean the guys that are playing are will play, and

94
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: they all have a role.
