1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: Sounds great. Good morning, Bill, Um, with a chance to 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: review the game yesterday, I'm curious about the run defense 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:16,119 Speaker 1: and how you thought the fits were. Um, yeah, you know, 4 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: just to do a good job in the running game 5 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: and um, you know they gave us. They gave us 6 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: a few challenging plays. So times it was okay. Some 7 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: things we need to you know, work on, make sure 8 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: the players understand correct in along note the topic. How 9 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: about the tackling some of it was good and we 10 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 1: missed a few. We'll go to Chris Bryant fold my 11 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: mint corner. Bill, are you oh good? I want to 12 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: ask you about j C. Jackson. Um. Obviously you know 13 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: the notable interceptions stood out, but as you watch the 14 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: tape on on j C, what has stood out to 15 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: you about his improvement, you know, kind of throughout the 16 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: course of his time with the Patriots and his impact. 17 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: Thank each here Jac gets a little bit more aware. Um, 18 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: you know, a little better understanding of how to use 19 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: his help, and you know what what time when to 20 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: be aggressive and use his help and when not to 21 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, when when he doesn't have any has to 22 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: be a play things a little more honest. But you know, 23 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: take advantage of the the keys and the and the 24 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: defense and the leverage that we have to you know, 25 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: try to try to get closer to the receiver. Um, 26 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: are you a believer unforces? Roundforces improved and so his 27 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: tackling has improved. Um, and it still thinks for him 28 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: to work on but he's yeah, but he's consistently gotten 29 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: better over each of the four years. Are you a 30 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: believer in that the number one corner corn or a 31 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: type of air like you need to have a quote 32 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: unquote shutdown number one or is that something they feel 33 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: is slightly overrated and is he in that type of category? Yeah? Well, 34 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: it's always good to have good players at every position, 35 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: so wherever you can get them, you try to get them. 36 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: Next question map does follow by Mike Greece. We bill. 37 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: So last week there were more two tight end sets 38 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 1: against the Dolphins, and then yesterday there were more three 39 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: receiver sets, more eleven personnel. Was that just based on 40 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: the personality opponent or was there sort of a combination 41 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: of factors that went into that. Yeah, I'd say a 42 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: combination of things. And we haven't seen much of the 43 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: tight ends being targeted in the red zone or in 44 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: the end zone. Is that also just based on the 45 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: flow of the game or is there something more big picture? Yeah, 46 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: we we have everybody. You know, everybody has a you know, 47 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: an opportunity. Um which ones come up and how it 48 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: how it unfolds that that's a little bit unpredictable. We 49 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: don't just throw the ball to one guy, you know, 50 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: maybe on a screen pass. But um, so it just 51 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: depend on how though, how the play develops. But yeah, 52 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: we have options for everybody. Okay, thank you, you're welcome. 53 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: The next question my Greece. Jac's first interception, the way 54 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: that unfolded, Um, Devin's role in the play, I could 55 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: you revisit that and is that sort of textbook coaching? 56 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: The way he sort of batted it up? Is that 57 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: is that sort of the tip drill per se from 58 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: your view? Yeah, I mean, I don't know, you'd probably 59 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: have to ask them about the I mean it was 60 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: I think you're just trying to make a play at 61 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: that point. You know, JC did a good job of 62 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: of you know, on the play action, you know, riding 63 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: the riding the end cut down there and he's able 64 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: to get his hands on the ball and ultimately, you know, 65 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: it got tipped to him, but I don't know you'd 66 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: have asked Devin about that. I'm not sure. And and 67 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: just one last one with Nick. You talked a little 68 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: bit about him after the game and the field goal operation. 69 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: I know, just roster wise, he had been elevated the 70 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: last couple of times from the practice squad. M Is 71 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: it sort of fair to say that he's coming up 72 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: with Quinn on the I R. How do you see 73 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 1: that going? I guess you know, as I said a 74 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, I think there'll be roster movement 75 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: on most every team in the first few weeks of 76 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: the season, and so you obviously how it goes. The 77 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: next question app two, bill Um from from what you've seen, 78 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: how has has Brian Hoyer been as a as a 79 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: mentor and a guy that that's helped uh, that's helped 80 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: Mac along. And what is it about kind of his 81 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: his demeanor or his personality beyond his his football skills 82 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: that has made him in your mind skilled in somebody 83 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: that that uh that can do that. Yeah, Brian's not 84 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: a great job for us, UH in every area. UH, 85 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: He's he obviously knows the offense better than anyone any 86 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: other player um or quarterbacks, So you know that's a 87 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: that's a big help when executing the play. There's the 88 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: there's the coaching version of it, and then as a 89 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: player there's kind of the execution of it, the little 90 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: things that you remind yourself as a player that that 91 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: a coach sometimes doesn't. Uh. You know, it's just different 92 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: when you're a player and when you know at executing 93 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: the play and a coach trying to explain the play. 94 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: And I think Brian adds a lot of good insight 95 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: to that. And you know how how other teams defensively 96 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: do things because they're all different, and um, you know, 97 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: Brian helps me, you know, with with things that he's seen. 98 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: He's been with a lot of other team has been 99 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: with other coaches, been in other systems, and we talk 100 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: about plays and situations, and you know, he has a 101 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: lot of good either ideas or recollections of the way 102 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: somebody else did something which might be something to learn 103 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: from or might be something that you know, we can 104 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: use and so forth. So he's he's really he's been 105 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: good and uh and and knows the offense well. So 106 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: Max has been able to take a lot of reps. 107 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: But Brian's been able to go in there and execute 108 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: the offense when he's needed to. That being a preseason 109 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: games are in practice without you know, taking a ton 110 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: of reps so that we can give you know, more 111 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: of those to mac. Um. You know since the last 112 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: week of you know, after the last preseason games. So 113 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: that's you know that that's really worked out well too. 114 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: Are there things do you ask him to sort of 115 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: talk about with Mac or work with the MAC or 116 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: you just kind of trusted his instincts in that in 117 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: that role. How much how much is if that is 118 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: you directed, how much of that is just trusting what 119 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: he'll do. Yeah, it's a little bit of both. Um. Again, 120 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of a lot of conversations during the 121 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: gay day, there's meetings, there's before meetings, there's after meetings. 122 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: There's in practice, there's watching film of us, there's watching 123 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: film of other quarterbacks against the defense we're playing. There's 124 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: film of watching other quarterbacks and other teams in different situations. 125 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: So it comes on a lot of different levels and 126 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: a lot of different situations. Um, you know there, that's 127 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: all there. He would say, Brian's done a you know, 128 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: a good job of all of it, but there's snow 129 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: like definitive. It's all encompassing, um, because we you know, 130 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: we talk about so many things over the course of 131 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: the day. Yeah, next question, Chris, Chris Ryan again and 132 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: then Jim McBride. They'll want to ask you about Devin 133 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: as well. Where A lot of the conversation around Devin 134 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: is about you know, leadership, winning, even philanthropy. But do 135 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: you feel that he gets the appropriate recognition for the 136 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 1: quality of football player, so that he is and it 137 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: kind of in your historical lens as well, Um, where 138 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: is is Devin in that context? He certainly gets it 139 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: around here. I mean I don't know about you know, 140 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: anybody else. Everybody has their own opinions. I don't really 141 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: know what those are. But certainly around here he's highly 142 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: then to appreciate it for all the things that he 143 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: does unselfishly to help our team. UM on the field 144 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: as well as off the field. I mean off the field, 145 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: it's one thing, but you know, he's he's a critical 146 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: person on the field because of his quarterbacking of the 147 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: secondary of the defense and his playmaking abilities, tackling ability, 148 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: and his ability to um and to do the right 149 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: things in coverage and that's very very important for his 150 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: position because one mistake back there is um, you know, 151 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: it's not like the nose guard making a mistake. There's 152 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: nobody behind him. So it's it's a it's a much 153 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: very important position, and the any mistakes back there are 154 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: really you know, it can be a bit much bigger 155 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: consequences than than another positions on the field. So yeah, 156 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: I think there's plenty of respect and appreciation for everything 157 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: he does here UM, and he's done on a consistent level, 158 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: shows up every day, every week, every year, and that's 159 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: that that's a huge thing too. And let's like the 160 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: last two questions to be Jenners frighting. Karen Green, Good morning, coach. 161 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about Jawan Bentley and what 162 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: you've seen from his growth over the years. It seems 163 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: that that his responsibilities continue to grow season at the season, 164 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: and I'm wondering if that's an accurate assessment. Yeah, I 165 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: think that definitely is. Um. He's he's done a great 166 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: job of, you know, last year taking control of the 167 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: defense with high not here and you know some of 168 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 1: the other um, you know players who we had in 169 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: nineteen you know, Jamie and back in and now in 170 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: last year and then moving into this year, and he's 171 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: still continued to you know, step that role up. Um. 172 00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: He's very smart, very good communicator. Um. You a physical player. Um, 173 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: but I think he's you know, taking it to another 174 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: level this year in training camp and even in the 175 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: first couple of games in terms of his aggressiveness and 176 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 1: instinct and just reading and recognizing things a little bit quicker. 177 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: Just that that split second at that position is a big, 178 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: big difference a lot of times between a tackle for 179 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: a loss and um, you know, an eight yard game. 180 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: So I think he's you know, playing with a lot 181 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: of confidence and m and playing a good physical style football, 182 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: taking on blockers, tackling jam and receivers, um, doing all 183 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: those things and again very very smart to handle and 184 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: make adjustments on the defense. Thank you, yep. Last question Church, 185 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: Good morning Bill. Okay, Um, I was just wondering how 186 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: concerned you were about the play at right tackle and 187 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: have you and have you thought about perhaps moving Mike 188 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: and win you there should Trent Brown not be available 189 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: to play. Yeah, I still you know, we still need 190 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: to spend a little more time here going through the 191 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: film and talking about things. But um, I think we're 192 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: I think we're all right here. Um, got you know, 193 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: three players that have played it, and I think they've 194 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: all done some good things. You know, Trent may not 195 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: not very much in the last two games, but you know, 196 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: we know Trent can you know, can do a good 197 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: job over there. And and uh yes here and Justin 198 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: it both both on a solid job there. Um. You know, 199 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: we've had some breakdowns that really all spots on the line, 200 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: all spots offensively. It's just we've lacked some consistency even 201 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: though we have a lot of good plays and we've 202 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 1: moved the ball and you know, we we put ourselves 203 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: into you know, positive field position. You know, a lot 204 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: of times this year we just don't have enough enough 205 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: results points wise that what we feel like we should have. 206 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: So but I think that's a you know, really a 207 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: whole team thing, um, you know, not anyone one individual 208 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: or one guy. So um, you know, we plan to 209 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: play justin Ann and Yere both yesterday and we did 210 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: and they both got some good experience and then they 211 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: both had a lot of a lot of good plays. 212 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: So we'll see where we are this week and go 213 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: from there.
