1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:00,800
Speaker 1: We're fired up.

2
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 2: Obviously with the win last week, I thought our guys

3
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 2: played really well. You know, you get the same guys

4
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 2: stepping up and others are joining them. Now we continue

5
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: to do a tremendous job of taking the football away

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: and you know the big thing that you know, walking

7
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: away from leaving the parking lot, the fans were incredible.

8
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 2: I mean they were the twelfth guy definitely for us defensively,

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: and you know, when you when you got eighty thousand

10
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 2: people like that and cheering for you, it was an awesome, awesome.

11
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: Experience for everybody involved. But that I'll open up the questions, well.

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 2: Can you put your finger on with the turnovers of

13
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: why they're coming so many? If I could, Jordan, if

14
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: I could do that, we'd have a crap a ton

15
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:52,639
Speaker 2: of them.

16
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: I try to clean that up of takeaways every year.

17
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 2: I think it's you know, guys taking advantage of the situations. Uh,

18
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 2: they're becoming better finishers at the football. And you see

19
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 2: everybody else, you know, like Xes punched the ball out.

20
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 2: You know, we've we've talked about Bobby, you know, punching

21
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 2: the ball out. Now you have flowed in the Washington game,

22
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,199
Speaker 2: punching the ball out, you know, right at the right time,

23
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 2: and and and things like that that you know that

24
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 2: we're doing more often.

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: And having opportunity to do more often. Uh.

26
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 2: And and the interceptions they've they've just they've been good plays.

27
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: And the guys are studying communicating so much better the

28
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 2: last month. And it's a it's a it's been fun

29
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: to watch.

30
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: What do you attribute u X McKinney's play over the

31
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: last month, because it seems like it's not.

32
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: That he was a bad no, no, he's.

33
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: Raised his game to a point where I'm not sure he's.

34
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: Ever played this well.

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: I think that it's, you know, uh, he wants to win.

36
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: He said that I want to win. And I think

37
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: that he's taking the steps and what he thinks he

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: needs to do to help us win.

39
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he's communicating better. We're communicating better. Uh.

40
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: And and he's really enjoying the process of the game prep.

41
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: You know, we talk out on the field. You know,

42
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: I always tell him, you know, here's what I'm thinking,

43
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 2: like going a walk through and stuff like that, and

44
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 2: try to get him to play the game. And you know,

45
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: he's enjoying that. He and Bobby hillkare kay. They love

46
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 2: doing that, so and we're going to need him this

47
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: week because this offense we're getting ready to face is

48
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: it's it's a beast. It's tough because you know, it's

49
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: a regular pro offense with really good skilled players starting

50
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: with their quarterback, you know, then the receivers and Alvin

51
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 2: running back, and then you bring seven into the game

52
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: and it's completely different animal, you know.

53
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: So it's it's almost a different game plan, if you will.

54
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 2: There's sometimes it is, sometimes it's not, you know, excuse me,

55
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: but it's gonna be a great challenge.

56
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: Obviously, decking a pitch count last week?

57
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 3: Do you did it surprise you how effective he was

58
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 3: able to be even with the limited SNePS.

59
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 4: Nothing surprises me with Decks regarding Decks to do what

60
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 4: he did last week, and you know, playing obviously he's

61
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 4: not one hundred percent, guys, No, he's not one hundred percent.

62
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 3: What kind of message does that send to the rest

63
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 3: of the unit? I mean, does that help kind of

64
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 3: lift everybody else?

65
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: Sure it does, Sure it does.

66
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 2: I mean if you and Decks were walking into some

67
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: place when you feel a lot more confident walking in.

68
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: Him, I mean, I mean that's just that's uh, that's

69
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: who he is. Thank you. What did you think of

70
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: Banks's play the othernet? I thought it was awesome. I

71
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: thought it was awesome.

72
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 2: He is just growing and growing and growing every week,

73
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: you know, as a corner and starting to see things

74
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: faster than what he has seen him before, and you're

75
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 2: starting to see that in his play. I love the

76
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 2: fact that he had twelve tackles because I challenged him

77
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: a week on making some tackles. So you're going to

78
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: keep getting tested out there until you start tackling people.

79
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 2: So I thought he stepped up and played really well.

80
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: How much different is this?

81
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 3: Are the Saints than Green Bay as far as what

82
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 3: they do schematically?

83
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 2: Completely different, completely different, and it's who they have in

84
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 2: the game.

85
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: This is like free advertisement. Is that good? Were allowed

86
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: to do that? Okay? Why do you think Cayvon's play

87
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: is resulting in production of big plays?

88
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 3: You know, forced fumble, another sack or half sack?

89
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,559
Speaker 1: And I think that's a great question.

90
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 2: You know, we talked about it before and I've thought

91
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 2: about it even more. You know, I said that the

92
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: guy has no ceiling. You know you've heard remembered me

93
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 2: saying that before. And the reason why and have a ceiling,

94
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 2: because he doesn't allow himself to have a ceiling. He's

95
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 2: in here working every day, you know, he and he

96
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: and Drew are you know, in there watching tape you know,

97
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: from everything from A to Z because that's what he does.

98
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 2: You know, he's dropping and coverage and they you know,

99
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 2: they handle all that. And so I can't say enough

100
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 2: about you know, his his work ethic, and he has

101
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: that knack to me, he's a finisher at the football,

102
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 2: whether it's a sack, if a strip sack or you know,

103
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 2: like the play he saw on Monday night, you know

104
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: we had love held up and he dug the ball out.

105
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 2: And he's he's a thing where he's leading.

106
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 1: The defense, you know, I mean he's he's a vocal

107
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 1: leader out there.

108
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 2: Like I already said, it's it's crazy because the guy's

109
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,239
Speaker 2: only twenty two years old.

110
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: You know, he's becoming.

111
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 2: That football savant in the NFL where he sees things

112
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:56,119
Speaker 2: before they happen.

113
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 1: You know, he knows what's coming.

114
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 2: And you know that's a testament, like said, he and

115
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 2: he and Drew Wilkins, and you know how hard they

116
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 2: study the game, and.

117
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: You know it's it's it's.

118
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: Fun to watch where the biggest jumping this way this

119
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: year on the field, Like, what is it that he's

120
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: improved on that you think that's allowed him to do that.

121
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: I just think that he is the biggest jump. Yeah,

122
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: I mean it's definitely technique.

123
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 2: I think it's also you know, you know that rookie year,

124
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: how their body wears down.

125
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: I'm not saying rookie wall if anybody says that.

126
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: Their body wears down because they go from their summer,

127
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 2: their their last year in college, all through the fall,

128
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: they go right into training for the combine. They come

129
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 2: right here for OTAs. There's never a break, and even

130
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 2: the break that they have when we all break at

131
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 2: the end, it's shorter and that it's a season longer

132
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 2: than anything they've ever experienced that first year. So when

133
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 2: there was a break finally, I think he recovered right

134
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: and he worked out. You know, he attacked his workouts

135
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: even harder because he had that break. You know where

136
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: he could do it. It wasn't just constant and you know,

137
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 2: I just like I said, I just think the guy's

138
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: a finisher at everything he does. So whatever his challenge

139
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 2: that he gives himself or we give him, he accepts it,

140
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 2: and he you know, he attacks it.

141
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: Is his ability to kind of see things before they happen.

142
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: You mentioned that. Is that something he's always had or

143
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: is it just because he's watching.

144
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 2: So much film and growing.

145
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:37,679
Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit of both.

146
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 2: You know, you know, he made a lot of plays

147
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 2: in college, So I think that you know, you see

148
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: a guy like that. I told you he's an old

149
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 2: soul guy that he's you know, he's he's you know,

150
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 2: really worked hard and we're all starting to see the

151
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 2: rewards of how hard he's worked.

152
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 4: It's a question, but there's been this new focus on

153
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 4: the hip drop tackles.

154
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: Just where do you stand on those?

155
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: And you think that it's obviously not on my I

156
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: don't know how.

157
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 2: I don't know how you coach it. I really don't.

158

00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,440
