1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Thanks guys. Hey Steve, I just wanted to ask you

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: about Devin mccordy's play this season. I think early on

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: in the season a lot of people were kind of

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 1: down on his play, but he seems to have right

5
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: right of this ship a lot this second half of

6
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: the year. What have you seen him all years? Have

7
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: been consistent from your perspective, from start to finish? Uh? Yeah,

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 1: I think it's been consistent improvement of a year, just

9
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 1: like it was the past couple of since. I think

10
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: coaching him, um yeah, all players, we start for everybody

11
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: to get better every day. So um, that's that's the

12
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: goal for everyone around here. And I think Devan's done him.

13
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,239
Speaker 1: I think he started at a high level of your

14
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: own figures went from bad good. I think it's just

15
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: gone from good to better. Thanks Steve, Sorry about that, guys,

16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: Mike Greece, did I saw a hand raise? Did you

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: have a question? I did? Thanks Mark. Um Steve, I

18
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you about Patrick Chung and I'm just

19
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: what does he bring to the defense. What is it

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: like coaching him? Um? I guess that that would be

21
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: the question. Um yeah, I mean he brings uh, he

22
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: brings a ton of a ton to our defense both

23
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: on an off the field. And Uh, he's a he's

24
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: a great player of coach. Um, I love coaching on

25
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: my guys, but um, Pat's that's awesome to coach. He's

26
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: an extremely versatile player. Um. He does a lot of

27
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: stuff for us Friensive League. Um, so obviously it gives

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 1: me the opportunity to coach a lot of different uh

29
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 1: techniques and stuff like that. So yeah, working with Pat

30
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: has been great. He's a he's a smart player. He

31
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: guess a lot of good questions. Um, he makes you

32
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: think as a coach. So yeah, I can't I can't

33
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 1: say that's good things about coaching Pat. Thanks Mike. Next

34
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: up we'll go to Mike Petraglia. Mike, can you hear us?

35
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: I can? Um? Thanks Mark, Steve, can you hear me? Yes?

36
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: All right? Um, Steve, I wanted to ask you about

37
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: the communication and the ability to stick to the game

38
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: plan even win a player two doesn't go your way.

39
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: And I asked Devin after the game yesterday about the

40
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen touchdown in the first quarter, and he said, look,

41
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: we knew what the game plan was. We weren't going

42
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: to stray from it we were going to stick to it.

43
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: And my question for you is how good is this

44
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: group of players that you coach at not panicking and

45
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: just getting back to the sideline, regrouping and sticking to

46
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: the game plan. Yeah, I mean, yeah, they're there. Are

47
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: mentally tough group of players, and get all the credit

48
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: to them for um for trusting them, believing in us

49
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: and uh and sticking with the game plan and what

50
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: the coaching's death wanted to do. Um, those guys went

51
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 1: out there and executed um and just did a great

52
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 1: job from top bottom. I can't send us good things

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: about those guys and how well they played yesterday, um

54
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: up until they finished, but uh, yeah it was. It

55
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: was a great game. And yeah, credit to them for

56
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: for just continuing to battle and fight to universities like

57
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: they done all year. And if I can follow up, Steve,

58
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: is that's particularly important when you go on the road

59
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: and um, it's a hostile environment and you know, emotions

60
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: can be running high, you know, when you don't have

61
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: your fans behind you, and the ability to keep calm.

62
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: How important is that? Um? Yeah, I mean it's I

63
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: can't even put them towards so important it is. Um,

64
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: just keeping your toys playing the next play. There's just endless,

65
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: endless examples of of um things, things that happened that

66
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: no one thought would in football games. So you just

67
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: gotta play the nice play, UM live the next town

68
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: and get your best. Thanks Steve and Steve. This is

69
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: marked with the Patriots again given some of the technical difficulties.

70
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: I actually have a question in writing here from Tom Curran,

71
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: and the question is, with a guy as explosive as

72
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill and some of the big games he's had

73
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: against this defense in the past, how do you go

74
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: about adequately preparing for a guy like that. Yeah, I

75
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: mean we gotta do a great table with him as

76
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: everybody else on their offense. And I scored forty points

77
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: on us last time, so we have our work cut

78
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: out for us. And I mean, yeah, this guy is

79
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: just um explodes as an understatement for him. Thank you.

80
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: We got time for two quick final ones. Yere. I'm

81
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: going to come back to Mike Reece Mike and hear

82
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: us Yes I can. And it sort of follows up

83
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: Steve to that topic. Just in addition to Hill. I

84
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: know you guys are just getting into the Chiefs today. Um.

85
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: If you've already done that. If you haven't, don't, you

86
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: don't have to answer it. But I mean, is what

87
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: stands out to you about their offense that we'll challenge

88
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: you guys honestly everything when they do, they do everything well,

89
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: they're doing everything in the high level right now. Remember

90
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: last time getting ready for him Holmes was completely left

91
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 1: handed tests for first downs. Now it's completely no low passes.

92
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 1: So it's just just keeps getting more and more challenging

93
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: with these guys. Um, they're playing playing at a high level,

94
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: will be the best team least we played obviously, so

95
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: we're looking forward to the challenge. But they sure who

96
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: present a big challenge. And our final question here Evan

97
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: Lazar looked like you had a hand raised again. Yeah,

98
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: just uh, you know, I wanted to ask you guys

99
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: seem to get a lot of hands on passes yesterday.

100
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: What kind of thing that do you see premier defensive

101
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: backs or the safeties in general that you know allow

102
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: you guys to get so many pass breakups and some

103
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 1: interceptions yesterday too as well. Um, I think those guys

104
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 1: just working together on the field, they were just communicating

105
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: really well, working really well, playing on a string with

106
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: each other and no words, so there was going to

107
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: be um. I think, uh yeah, just create those guys

108
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: for working hard over the buy week, working hard last week,

109
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: just building more camaraderie and yeah, communicating and playing together.

110
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: And I don't I don't know if I could give

111
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: one specific reason why it all works. It's just a

112
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: lot of hard work by those guys individually and collectively.

113
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: Thanks Je, all right, thank you guys. Have a good day.
