1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Hello, Bill, Hey, Glenn the coach. It's going well. It's

2
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: going well. So we've talked the last few weeks about

3
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: those games where you could not close them out, and

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: yesterday you had the opportunity. Your defense makes the stop,

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 1: your offense moves down, and you get the field goals.

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: So it all worked out. Why did it all work

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: out yesterday? Oh, let's worked out like that three in

8
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: the last four weeks. So you know, but you're siving

9
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: a good competitive situation and you know, being able to

10
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: handle the situational football. That's the way I worked out

11
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: in Baltimore, and that's the way you work out, Jeff

12
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: two Hey, coach. Defensively, I thought you guys really outstanding,

13
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: kind of confusing. Kyla looked like you guys brought a

14
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: lot of pressure on him. But when you blitz a

15
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: guy like Kylo Murray was the impressive part. Not was

16
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: just the discipline in which guys have, because you can't

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: just run like madmen, right because he gets outside and

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 1: takes off. But how discipline with those guys going after him. Yeah,

19
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: I thought our past rushers did a good job. You know,

20
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: he's a tough guy to handle, He's he's fast, and

21
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: you know, an elusive guy with good quickness you can

22
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: get outside. Um you know, but you know, overall, I

23
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: thought we tried to land up playing with pretty good

24
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: leverage and and discipline. But it's definitely a challenge. And

25
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: you know that had good receivers and a good tight ends,

26
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: good back, So there's a lot of a lot of

27
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: things to deal with there. Yesterday, coach, I mean you've, um,

28
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: you haven't had a defensive coordinator. As far as the title,

29
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: the title of defensive quarter, I want to say, since

30
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: um Patricia left, I know, I don't think b flow

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: had that official title. And and for the first time

32
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: for me, I heard you acknowledge, Um, you know how

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: well Steve Belichick did as far as a play caller

34
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: making adjustments. How have you seen him kind of grow

35
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: into that role since uh, since last year? Yeah, well,

36
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: I think we've talked about it before. We've had um

37
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: collectively as a staff. You know, I think our our

38
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: defensive coaches really worked well together. They all have a

39
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: lot of responsibility, they all have a lot of input,

40
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: and um, you know they've done a good good job,

41
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: you know, since Matt left. I mean it's certainly and

42
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: in eighteen and you know nineteen and you know this

43
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: year has had some challenges, but I think from a

44
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: coaching standpoint, I think the defensive coaches has done a

45
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: good job. So it's really yeah, group effort and uh,

46
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: Steve has a you know, significant role that you know,

47
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:38,119
Speaker 1: so to DeMarcus Gard, Mike, Brian Denny, you know it's

48
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: so it's a good, good group, very portance to work

49
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: with those guys. They do a good job. What do

50
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: you have to see from a from a guy to

51
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: actually officially give him that title? Is it just as

52
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: as far as just as as easy as this, you know,

53
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: paying his dues, or is it you know, something else

54
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 1: that that is involved with you deciding to give him

55
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: officially that title. Yeah, I mean I've never really been

56
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: that big on titles, So just try to do our

57
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: job and get it done with. I don't know, title

58
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: don't blame me much would mean something as the performance.

59
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: So it sounds like you feel really good about the

60
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: job that they've done based on what you just said.

61
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: And you also know that rumors start popping up anytime

62
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: one of your ex coaches ends up losing their job,

63
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: So I'll throw it out to you do you have

64
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: any interest in bringing back Matt Patricia or any of

65
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: these other guys. It worked for you before. Yeah, I'll

66
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: play it right now. You know, we're really just you know,

67
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: focused on correcting the mistakes from the Arizona game and

68
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: you know, moving on to the Chargers. You know, it'd

69
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: be a big challenge for us out there and then

70
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: you know, a short week out there with a ram

71
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: So that's really where where my folks has been in

72
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: the last few hours since the end of the Arizona game.

73
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: And a lot of other things to talk about at

74
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: some point, but let's say right now, this is you know,

75
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: that's the doorstep. Hey, coach Um Cam Newton's been kind

76
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: of up and down here last couple of weeks. Three

77
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty five yards last week in the loss,

78
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,039
Speaker 1: and then this week eighty four yards and a couple

79
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: of picks. So, um, what does it say that you're

80
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: sticking with Cam as opposed to maybe turning the yards?

81
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: Did him? Yeah, Well, maybe we've won three of our

82
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: last four games and hopefully we can continue to you know,

83
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: play good football on offense, defense, special teams, and you know,

84
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: I have a chance to be competitive. You know this

85
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: week and ain't going forward? Coach? Um, A couple of

86
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: wacky penalties, Um happened in the game some you guys,

87
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: but well ask me being played. The first one I

88
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: have is the first one was, Um, have you ever

89
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: seen an offensive pass interference nullified by a defensive pass

90
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: interference on the very same No, it's so unusual. Yeah.

91
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: And then and then how did you read how did

92
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 1: you read the um? The at Amfrety Jennings, Um, I

93
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: guess blindside hit was? Did they read that correctly? Well?

94
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: I think uh, Bill Benefits gave explanation of that after

95
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: the game, so really well, I saw the explanation and

96
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna PayPhrase here. Just tell me if I'm

97
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 1: right or wrong. In that situation. It looked worse than

98
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: it was, and I felt like that was an optic flag,

99
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: like the rev S thought, looks so bad that they

100
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: threw it, And based on their explanation of it, Jennings

101
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: just has to basically allow himself to get run over

102
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: or show his hands that he's trying not to declete him.

103
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: Is that basically the coaching point? Yeah? What whatever? Whatever?

104
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: That there's a say the rule is, that's what it is.

105
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: It doesn't doesn't really matter what you think or what

106
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: I think. The way the plays being officiated as the

107
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 1: way that you know we have to play it. Well,

108
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: you were certainly working it with the photos. What were

109
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: you trying to show them? Um, that's sure exactly what

110
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: you're talking about here. Well, it looked like from TV

111
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: anyway that you were actually with huddled up with the

112
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: officials and showing them photos right after that play happened.

113
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: So I guess it was you were showing them something

114
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 1: that happened in that play. Maybe I'm wrong, you tell me, Yeah, No,

115
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: it was actually a different play. Didn't have any to

116
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 1: do with that play, Okay, coach the end of a

117
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: half obviously, maybe the turning point of the game. I

118
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: don't know if that goal line stand because you guys

119
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: came out in the third quarter. It really kind of

120
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: took it to them. But was doing could you sense that,

121
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,239
Speaker 1: like in that locker room, a moment like that, stopping

122
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: them and not being down ten, only being down three. Yeah, Well,

123
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 1: anytime you have a seven point play, that's a you know,

124
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: it's a major swing in the game. So you know,

125
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: everything was riding just on on that one fourth and

126
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: one play. You know, there was whatever it was two

127
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: or three seconds left lone o' clock, so that was

128
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: gonna be the end of the half one way or

129
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: the other. And um, that was just really a great

130
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: play by our our players. You know, we got some

131
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: penetration and the line of scrimmation. Um, you know, Jawn

132
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: Bentley made a you know, a strong tackle there, and

133
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: a couple of guys came in there and you know,

134
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: help help push straight back and you know, keep him

135
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: out of the end zone. So that was a great,

136
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: great defensive play. You know, players really stepped up to

137
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: the challenge and and um, yeah, that made an impact

138
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: play in the game there, coach, I know a lot

139
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: of talk of Kyler Murray kind of banging up that

140
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: shoulder of the week before. Did you feel like he

141
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: was avoiding running or would you guys do a good

142
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: job of kind of forcing the handoff in some of

143
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: those option plays. Yeah, yeah, I have to ask him

144
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: that question. I don't know. I mean he ran a

145
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: few times. Um, So you know, we were like we've

146
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: had the last few weeks. You know, we had it

147
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: with Lamar and then you know last week with Watson

148
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: and this week with Murray. You know, the running quarterbacks

149
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: are you know, a challenge. I don't think you'd want

150
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: to just you know, let him take off of the ball,

151
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: you know, undefended. So of course we were cognizant of

152
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: all of their running abilities and take heret of yesterday

153
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: with Murray Um. But yeah, that was certainly a focus

154
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: of our defensive um game plan and the responsibilities. But

155
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: the players did a good job of that. But how

156
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: much he wanted to handle off or run or whatever.

157
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: I couldn't really answer that question, Hey, coach, was this

158
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: um about as a good of an example of complimentary

159
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 1: football as we've seen in a while, as far as

160
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: just you know, defense offense, you know struggling at times?

161
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: And then all the big plays you got from your

162
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: special teams are really in every from coverage team, from

163
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: punt punt return, kickoff return. I know that's been something

164
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: that you guys have been working on. I mean, I mean,

165
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: how good do you feel knowing that you can actually

166
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: get some production from those guys? Yeah, well this is

167
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 1: definitely our our most productive game UM on special teams,

168
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: you know, in the return game, and our coverage teams

169
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: have been pretty it end up pretty consistent all year

170
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: long um. And you know, for the most part, our

171
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: kicking has been been pretty consistent as well. UM. But

172
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: since the first time we've really had you know, these

173
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 1: kind of explosive plays in the return game UM or

174
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: you know, blocking a kick like a block punter, or

175
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 1: you know a long punt return kind of equals about

176
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: the same instance steel position. So we had we haven't

177
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: had those plays in the first ten games. And you know,

178
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: it certainly great to get him yesterday, I know, or

179
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: our players have worked you know, extremely hard on it,

180
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: and you know we've been close a few times at least,

181
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, close to blocking upon its close to return,

182
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: close to return to kickoffs, but uh, you know it

183
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: to be able to do it yesterday, I was, you know,

184
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: obviously a big, big boots of the team, and you know,

185
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: created scoring opportunities for offense. It's hard to keep getting

186
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: the offensive ball, you know, eighty eighty five yards lay

187
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: from the goal line and it's a long way for

188
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: any team to go. So we're able to put our

189
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: offense on the short field a couple of times. And

190
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: I was obviously a big, big help. So let me

191
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 1: ask you back because I'm a little bit confused the

192
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: doctor Mills a few weeks ago came out and he

193
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: claimed that you guys had followed protocol after an investigation,

194
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: and now we hear that the league is finding you

195
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 1: guys three hundred and fifty thousand for COVID protocol violations.

196
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: What are they telling you that you did wrong? Oh? Yeah,

197
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Um, I'm not sure exactly what the

198
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: you know, the legal legal eases on that. So well, coach,

199
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: let me ask you about Julian Edelman, because I'm just

200
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 1: curious how he's always looked recently and what a guy

201
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: like that coming back and do for your offense. Yeah,

202
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: I think Julian's uh, you know, made a lot of

203
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: problem last couple of weeks. Um. You know, I talked

204
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: to him the other day and you know, certainly you know,

205
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: feeling better, um, and you know, able to do more.

206
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: I do a little more each day. So you know,

207
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: we'll just we'll take your day by day and um,

208
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: and I'll see see how it goes. Are you confident

209
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: he'll be back at any point this year? I know

210
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: he's working extremely hard, and UM, I would certainly over

211
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: count you lane out anything he's got, you know, tremendous

212
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: will a great work ethic and um, very competitive football

213
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: is very important to him. So it would you know,

214
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: take a lot for me to count him out put

215
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: it that way. So coach, I, UM, I know you

216
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: guys are heading out obviously to LA back to back games. UM,

217
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw what Santa Clara County

218
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 1: h is doing as far as no sports, so San

219
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: Francisco has to leave and they can't play their games

220
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: in their home stadium. How many contingency plans do you

221
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: guys have just in case LA County does the same thing? Yeah,

222
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, Christian, I don't really concern myself with

223
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: all those logistical things and a couple of other questions

224
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: that you know do you guys have asked, which are

225
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 1: good questions, But you know, I'm just trying to focus on,

226
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: you know, coaching the team, trying to prepare the team,

227
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: trying to improve the team. You know, do a better

228
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: job on on the things that I you know, have

229
00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 1: direct input on. So the rest of it it is, um,

230
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: you know, if they tell us to do something, then

231
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: we do it. If they tell us we're in a

232
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 1: certain protocol, then we've allowed that protocol. If they tell

233
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: us that you know, some part of our travel or

234
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 1: schedule has been adjusted, then will adjusted and you know

235
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: make the changes. So it's kind of been like that

236
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: all year. Um, well, our team has been adaptable. They've

237
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 1: they've made um last second changes, they've made you know,

238
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: changes a week ahead of time. They've adjusted you know,

239
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: different things that have come up. So um, you know,

240
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: with whatever it turns out to be, they wherever they

241
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: tell us to play, when to play, then we'll prepare

242
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: to go and play there. You know, these college teams

243
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: this year that have you know, I have two or

244
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: three games scheduled there in a week and then have

245
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: to change and you know don't know who they're playing

246
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: until the middle of the week or whatever it is.

247
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just you know, that's that's a little

248
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: of the two thousands went in football season, you know

249
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: from a big picture standpoint. So, um, I think you know,

250
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: everybody's probably trying to do the best they can. They're

251
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: trying to you know, work things out so that the

252
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: season can can be played, which is I think ultimately

253
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: what everyone wants. Um, what all that entails and so

254
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: forth again is honestly have enough to do with you know,

255
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: trying to prepare our team and see if I can

256
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 1: coach them better and deeply be more productive. That's that's

257
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: really when I'm That's what I'm working on. And whatever

258
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: the rest of it is, will you, we'll find a

259
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: way to to work through it. So, Bill, are they

260
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: allowing you to stay out there for both games? Stay

261
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: out in LA you know well to see I mean,

262
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: we'll play Thursday night, so it'd be pretty hard to

263
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: you know, fly back and then turn around fly back

264
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: out there again. So they haven't given you word yet

265
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: whether you can do that, because I know there was

266
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: some they had mention earlier in the season Sunday to

267
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: Sunday people couldn't do it. You're right, Sunday to Thursday.

268
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: It makes no sense. They haven't given you the word yet. Yeah,

269
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: we have our travel plans and you know, our schedule

270
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: and so forth, and we'll um. But you know where

271
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: things are today and tomorrow and all that. You know,

272
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: we'll see so not you know, see exactly how things

273
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: turn out. I don't know. So, I mean, right now

274
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: we're getting ready to play the Rant play the Chargers.

275
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 1: But you know, if, like you said, if there's some

276
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: kind of restriction on where we play them or when

277
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: we play them or whatever that might impact the next

278
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: game too. So you know, again, I'm not really worried

279
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: about that right now. We're just we'll get ready for

280
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: the Chargers and whatever. You know, whatever decisions get made

281
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: get made, and you know, we'll deal with them when

282
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: we know what they are. So so I would I

283
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: would think that you would have a sigh of relief.

284
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: You went from Lamar Jackson to Deshaun Watson and then

285
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: Tyler Murray. Now rookie quarterback Justin Herbert. What what have

286
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: you seen from him? I mean, not necessarily the runner

287
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: that those guys are, but he can still scoot. How

288
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: do you think he's played so far? I think he

289
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: can run plenty well enough. Um, he's fast, he's athletic,

290
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: he's an ecellent past or, a good decision maker. Smart kids.

291
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: Got a lot of boys end up passing offense, you know,

292
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: as ten games have experienced now in the NFL or

293
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: whatever it is. So he's got you know, all the

294
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: all the throwing ability, can make all the throws against

295
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: smart guy that you know understands football, and he can run.

296
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: He's fast. Um, I don't think any any quarterback Ryan

297
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: play you wanted to have in your offense. I think

298
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: he'd probably be able to do it. So it'll be

299
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: a big challenge for us. And you know, he's got

300
00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: a very good skill set and he's got a lot

301
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: of a lot of good skilled players with him, you know, receivers,

302
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: tight ends, running backs, obviously the quarterback we're just talking about.

303
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of a lot of guys that

304
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: defend and it'll be a a big challenge for for our

305
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: defense this week, Coach, I want to ask you about

306
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 1: Nakilla Harry. It's been kind of a tough year two

307
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: for him. What does he have to do or what

308
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: can be done to get him more involved in the

309
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: passing game? Well, I mean offensively. You know, we'll continue

310
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: to try to find ways to be productive. But that's

311
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: running or passing, and you know, whatever whatever works best,

312
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 1: whatever gives to the best chance to win, whatever however

313
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: those combinations work out, then that's you know, that's all

314
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: we'll try to do. So I gear around, you know,

315
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: trying to produce stats for a certain individual or not

316
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 1: a certain individual. It's just about team success and you

317
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: know the opportunity and matchup of our team against our ponents.

318
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: That fluctuates from week to week and could fluctuate within

319
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: the game. So well, just after you don't say good

320
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: one game at a time and hopefully we can score

321
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 1: the more points and the other team. That's really the

322
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: idea here, coach, before I give you the Mercedes Benz

323
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 1: Question of the week? Um, do you still call them

324
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: the San Diego Chargers like the rest of us do?

325
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: How often do you make that mistake? Yeah, it's hard

326
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: not to. Its hard not to call them San Diego Chargers,

327
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 1: and it's hard not to call the Raiders the Oakland Raiders.

328
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: You know, if I don't think about it, if I'd

329
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: probably have slipped it out a few times the wrong way. Um,

330
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: not intentional, it's not nothing to be derogatory in any way.

331
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, you know that's a habit. You know, as

332
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: you get older, Christen, sometimes you get stuck in those

333
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: habits and they're they're hardy. Tell me about it. Okay,

334
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 1: all right, question of the week, coach. I don't know

335
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: if you've uh, well, I'm sure you pay attention to

336
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: college football, but I don't know. Did you happen to

337
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: see Sarah Fuller Um, the former soccer college soccer player

338
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: become the first female to play and ePower five college

339
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: football game. Were you did you happen to see that?

340
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: By any chance? I didn't. He didn't. Um, well she didn't.

341
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: She won like a little pooch kick, so um getting

342
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: a lot of um praise for that. But I think

343
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: the question is, you know, do you envision a female

344
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: playing in the NFL at some point time, like while

345
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: you're a coaching Do you see that's something that could happen. Uh? Yeah,

346
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well I guess yeah, I mean, I

347
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: guess you guys, Yeah, I mean, I know. It's just

348

Speaker 1: it seems like there's you know, there's just I just

349
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 1: feel like it's the last one I remember was from

350
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: Kathy Ireland was a kicker in college? Um for uh

351
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: uh in a movie. That's the last kicker I know,

352
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: female kicker lloyds to do well in the locker room. Yeah,
