Coach, Um, I have an opportunity to 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: start with an open comment and then we'll take questions. 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,239 Speaker 1: Micrease will be first. Yeah, okay, Um, you know, not 4 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: much new form when we talked about yesterday. UM. Yeah, 5 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: like I said, looking through the film, proud of the 6 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: team's effort that we uh you know, handled overall, handled 7 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: the situational football decently, certainly room for improvement, you know, 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: kept our pois air through some uh you know, competitive situations. 9 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: And there's a lot we can learn from on this film, 10 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: a lot of things that we haven't experienced this year 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: that we experienced yesterday. So it'll be a good good 12 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: to learn experience for um, for all of us on 13 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: the team and um, you know, things that we can 14 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 1: all clean up, coaches, players, um, everything. So we'll try 15 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: to try to improve on yesterday's performance and we'll need 16 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: that against Seattle. Um, you know, they were impressive against Atlanta. 17 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: Another eight day from Wilson and um you know so well, 18 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: we'll have to get to them here as soon as 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: we turn the page on on Miami Tey. First question 20 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: Mike Greece fall by Zach Comps. Good morning, Bill, how 21 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: are you good man? Um, some might look at the 22 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,320 Speaker 1: way you guys played offensively yesterday and say that looked 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: different in a lot of ways than what we've seen 24 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: in the past couple of decades, and and maybe ask 25 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: the question, how much did the Patriots sort of rip 26 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: up the playbook and build a new one? Um, how 27 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: how did you like, is that exactly what happened, or 28 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: how would you sort of answer that thought? We always 29 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: try to do what's best for the team to win, 30 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: and you know, everything we've done for the last twenty years, 31 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: and rightfully so has been for Tom Brady was for 32 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. Um, everything was dedicated to him, other than 33 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: the games that he didn't play in, like, um, you 34 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: know when Castle played m or Jimmy and then Jacobe 35 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: when Brady was suspended. So you know there were times 36 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: when we we had to plan differently. But you know, 37 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: when you your starting quarterback has things that he's good 38 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: at or things that you can take advantage of, then 39 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: I think he tried to take advantage of. How much 40 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: does that, um, speak to the flexibility that you have 41 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: within the offensive system or or does that sort of 42 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: pretty standard would you say from your experience in football 43 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: to be able to adapt like that. Yeah, all right, 44 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 1: I can always speak to the team that I'm on. So, 45 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: like I said, we tried to do it's best for 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: the football team. That's we always do. Next question, Zach 47 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 1: Cox palled by Michael Herley Moryn Bill that it looked 48 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: like Joe One had a tough assignment yesterday against Gisiki 49 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: and some of those third down situations. What made you 50 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: confident that he could handle that assignment and how do 51 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: you feel like he he fared out there? There were 52 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: a couple of you know, he had a couple of 53 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: really good plays, big plays, passed, break up on third down, 54 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: had good coveries there on the interception at the end 55 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: of the game. Um, kind of on the overthrow there 56 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: or well it took your secky away and couldn't get 57 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: the ball in there and and Jason intercepted it. So um, 58 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: you know, just Seck's really just you know, he's a 59 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: big receiver. I mean, he's not really a conventional tight end, 60 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: but he's a tough matchup in the passing game. And 61 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: you know, it felt like Jowan matched up against him 62 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: to did a good job. Thank you here. Next question, 63 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,119 Speaker 1: Michael Hurley followed me meganam Bryant, Hey, good morning, Bill. 64 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: A question about the fourth and one just vision really 65 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: two parts. Is there a calculus where going up by 66 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: six at that point isn't really worth it compared to 67 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: going for it when you're deep in the territory the 68 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: opponent's territory. And secondly, I noticed that, Mike and when 69 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: you justin Herron Devon ASIASI were on the field and 70 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: that play. What is it those guys played in their 71 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: first game? What is it that gave you the confidence 72 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: to to have those guys out there in that spot 73 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: in their first NFL games? All right? Well, you know 74 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: those those players all practiced and gave us confidence to 75 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: do that. So that's why we put them out there. 76 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: And we knew that obviously those situations are are going 77 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: to be critical situations fourth and ones or goal lines 78 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: or you know whatever. We're not gonna um yeah, that 79 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: that's not the type of play that that you would 80 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 1: expect that type of play to come up in a 81 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: critical situation, which it did so, but they they've show 82 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: show the ability to execute that in practice. And U yeah, 83 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean all those Fourth Town situations, they're all different, 84 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: but certainly being up by six is a lot better 85 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: than being up by three, especially late in the game 86 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: when a you know, field goal isn't enough for the offense, 87 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: they've got to go to the end zone. But we 88 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: just felt confident in that at that situation and players 89 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: came through and executed it well. Cam gave was a 90 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: good run and you know we ended up inside the 91 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: one yard line. So, um, you know, worked out well, 92 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: but that was good execution by the players. Thank you, 93 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: You're welcome our next question. Megan O'Brien followed back, Hm, Steel, 94 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: I know yesterday was Derek rivers first healthy game and 95 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: over a year, and he missed his first season due 96 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: to injury. I was just wondering what you've noticed about 97 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: Derek Rivers and how he's worked to get himself healthy 98 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: and back out on the field. Yeah. Thanks Megan. It's 99 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: a you know, a great, great point that you brought 100 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 1: up there, and you know, there's really been done incredible job. 101 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: You've mentioned some of the adversity's been through, but um, 102 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think I've ever really seen him 103 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: in a in a down day. He's always got a 104 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: positive attitude. He works extremely hard. He always you know, 105 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: works on the things that will help him and help 106 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: the team. M kind of the first one in, last 107 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: one out type of guy in the building and really 108 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: glad to see him out there yesterday and have an 109 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 1: opportunity to play and have some success and you know, 110 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: help us win. But he's he's UM really showed a 111 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: lot of mental toughness and a really an incredible amount 112 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 1: of mental toughness over the last three years, you know, 113 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: to deal with with some of the setbacks that UM 114 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: he's had, you know, none of which were really his fault, UM, 115 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: just bad breaks. Really, I don't think he did anything wrong. 116 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: It's just you know, that's football. And but he never 117 00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: had anything but a positive, hard working, competitive attitude. UM. 118 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: He did what he could do, and he rehabbed what 119 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: he couldn't do. And uh so he's had a good, 120 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: good camp here, UM good start of the season and UM, 121 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, him, having the opportunity to play yesterday 122 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: and go out there and help the team win was 123 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: very gratifying, I know for him, but for all of us, 124 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: all of his teammates and other people on the team 125 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: and and UM, you know, the training staff, the strength staff, 126 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: all the guys that have worked with him for for um, 127 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: you know during that time as well to help him 128 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: regain all of his physical attributes, which I think he's 129 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: done a good job of and they've done a good 130 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: job of it. You know, it came defruition yesterday and 131 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: as I said, I think I was gratifying for everyone. 132 00:07:49,720 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: Thanks for recognizing it. That's stealful of my marketing Corningville Man. 133 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: I'm curious in terms of I remember you mentioned in 134 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: training camp that ball security was something that you were 135 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: concerned of over going into week one, specifically with contact 136 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: and some situations that the guys hadn't been through, and 137 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: with Nikila Harris fumble out of the end zone for 138 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: a touchback and Demire Bird's first punt, I'm wondering if 139 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: that's kind of just what you were concerned about encompassed 140 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: and how you approached that moving forward here. Yeah, Well, 141 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: the punt situation was a totally different situation. That was, 142 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: you know, Miami actually did a good job by you know, 143 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: pushing our player into the returners, a good play by 144 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: by them. Something we've got a Yeah, that's the game 145 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: situation that you don't really get in practice very often, 146 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: although we've talked about it plenty of times, but the 147 00:08:55,160 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: actual physical contact that led to that to the put 148 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: the punt moth was is one that we that is 149 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: a good situational play that we really you know, obviously 150 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to spend more time on UM, but 151 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, I just say ball security in general, it's 152 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: everybody would you know, a lot of people would focus 153 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: on the play or plays that happened where the ball 154 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: is actually loose, and those are critical plays, UM, But 155 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: really we analyze every play, every every time the ball's handled, 156 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: so you know, was it was the ball security good 157 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: or wasn't it and even if it wasn't, didn't come 158 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: out If if our ball security is not good, and 159 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: it's only a matter of time until you know, defender 160 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: is able to get his hand in there and you know, 161 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: the situation is a little bit different, the traffic situations 162 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: a little bit different, and the ball will come out. 163 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: So we analyze it on every play, practice and games. 164 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter whether it actually did or didn't come loose. 165 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: What really matters is the technique and the handling of 166 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: the ball so that it's always properly protected. So we've 167 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: you know, we've always done that. As I said, we 168 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: do it on every play in practice doing on every 169 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: play in the game. You know, I don't think that's 170 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: ever going to change. There are always there there. You know, 171 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: there are corrections to be made, and it's just an 172 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: awareness of that for everybody who handles the ball, including 173 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: the defensive players after they intercept it or scoop it 174 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: up on a fumble returners, and obviously all the ball 175 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:34,719 Speaker 1: handlers on offensive plays. So we'll continue to emphasize it. Hey, 176 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: next question, Mark Daniels called by Jimmy Bryan Corning. Bill, Hey, Mark, 177 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about two players who had 178 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: at a right tackle essterday. Jermaine a luminore and Michael 179 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: went into Obviously, Jermaine played a little bit more tackle 180 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: in college and Baltimore is probably a little bit more 181 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: guard and Michael was probably a little bit more guarded 182 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: last year in Michigan. Just how do those two players 183 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: do you know? In week one few and just what 184 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: is it safe for say even the fatility for someone 185 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: like Michael came into the NFL as with the majority 186 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: of his experience at right guard and then it's you know, 187 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: it's week one and he's playing a little bit of tackle, 188 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: all right, well, um, oh, you know, Mike's a very 189 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: flexible player, and um, I don't think he's played tackle 190 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: since high school, but uh, you know, he played a 191 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 1: number of positions for US in training camp, guard, tackle. 192 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: You know, we saw a tight end there in the 193 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: game yesterday. Um, you know, similar but different than Solder. 194 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: You know, when Solder was drafted, of course he was 195 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: the first round pick, but came in and played the 196 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: majority of his rookie yar at right tackle and the 197 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: jumbo tight end position. So, um, you know, Mike's are 198 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: in playing time and and uh he's able to been 199 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: able to play different spots for US. Um. You know, 200 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: right now, our our two guards are you know, pretty 201 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: established players and they've played well. Um, so if we 202 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: can find a way to utilize our personnel productively, then 203 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: then we'll try to do that. But Mike's a smart kid, 204 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: and and he's got good versatility, and he's worked hard, 205 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: and you know, he's embraced the opportunity to play different 206 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: positions and even though he doesn't have a lot of 207 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: experience there, he's he learns quickly and is able to 208 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, utilize his skills to be productive. Um. You know, Jermaine, 209 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: as you said, it's gone back and forth between tackling 210 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: guard in his professional career. He played tackle for the Ravens. 211 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: Um he's also played guard. So UM, you know, with 212 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: the Marcus often out this year, UM, you know, we 213 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: had a good opportunity to kind of open the right 214 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: tackle position up to competition and and um, you know, 215 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: those two players are are ahead of the rest of 216 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: him at this point. So you know, we'll see how 217 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: that goes. UM. But I think you know, both Jermaine 218 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 1: and and Mike had the ability to play inside and outside. 219 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: They've shown that. UM, So we'll just have to, you know, 220 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,839 Speaker 1: see how things progress moving forward. But it was good 221 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: to get an evaluation of it yesterday and we'll see 222 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: how it goes next week and in the succeeding weeks. 223 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: Thank you, you're welcome. Our next question Jimmy Bryan all 224 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: but dood Kite like, good morning coach. Hey, Jim, I 225 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: wanted to ask you about what you've seen from Ryan 226 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: Izzo and his development to particularly as a blocker. It 227 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: seemed like he was critical to the success of the 228 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 1: Monday Instiday. Yeah, Ryan's u you know, a little bit 229 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: different than the situation we just talked about with Rivers 230 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: in that he's you know, played a little more than that. 231 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: But you know, he's also dealt with a couple of 232 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: setbacks here in his first two years. And uh, you know, 233 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: I feel like even though um our opportunity to work 234 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: with him this year was was limited in the off season. Uh, 235 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, he took from the end of last year 236 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: until the beginning of this year and you know, improved 237 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: his strength and you know, put on some some solid weights, 238 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: worked on his blocking fundamentals. UM continue to improve those, 239 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, the coach Kaylee's position coach, and and he's 240 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: certainly gotten better over the course of this year's training 241 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: camping and relative to the two prior years. He's been 242 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: out there every day. So you know, when you're out 243 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: there every day working hard, UM, you know you have 244 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: to improve and he certainly has so. UM. You know, 245 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: he made nice, nice catching run for us on on 246 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: a play action pass and you know, gave us a 247 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: pretty solid effort there um at tight end yesterday and 248 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: we needed that. So that was he did a nice job. 249 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: But again, kind of like Rivers, he's he's shown a 250 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: lot of mental toughness and competitiveness to continue to work 251 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: even though things weren't always um, you know, always going 252 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: the way he wanted them to or the way we 253 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: wanted them to. Um, you know he's stuck with it 254 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: with you know, a good positive attitude and and you know, 255 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: day after day commitment and you know that's that paid off. 256 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah, thanks for recognizing that too. Next question 257 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: jog Kaine fall by Davin Lazar warning Bill, it was 258 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: saw a pretty heavy rotation at safety next to Devin mccordy. 259 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: I was wondering if that was more due to getting 260 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: guys up to speed after no preseason in sort of 261 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: a shortened training camp, or if it was just about 262 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: wanting to get all of those players on the field. Yeah. 263 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: Well we played a lot of players defensively at all positions, 264 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: so um, you know those guys are all out there. 265 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: Of course, anytime you play a team with multiple receivers 266 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: on the field, which the majority of the time Miami 267 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: had four had four receivers on the field, including Jaseki, 268 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: so um, that's you know that four CTUs, more defensive 269 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: backs and the safety positions you know part of that. 270 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: So um, but I you know, a lot of rotation 271 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: on the defensive line on the outside, linebackers, defensive ends 272 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: inside linebackers. All three of those guys played, and you 273 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: know our four safeties and corners played as well, So 274 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: you know, I think you saw that rotation all the 275 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: way across the board. But of course there's more defensive backs, 276 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: especially when you know Miami was behind there in the 277 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: fourth quarter and you know it was not two minute, 278 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: but kind of was two minute. They had the two 279 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: minute situation at the end of the half. So there 280 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: were a lot of real you know, probably a third 281 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: of the game in terms of total number of plays 282 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: where let's call it pretty pretty obvious passing situations or 283 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: passing groups. So that always leads to more dps on 284 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: the field. I'll do two final questions of them as 285 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: are in field. He well, just understanding that you want 286 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: to take advantage of Cam's ability to run the ball. 287 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: He ranted fifteen times yesterday, And I was just curious, 288 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: from your perspective, thought that was something that could continue 289 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: or would you like to, you know, kind of manage 290 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: it a little bit better so he's not you know, 291 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: taking that many body blows in a game. Yeah, well, 292 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: you know some of those runs are option type runs, 293 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: so we don't know who's going to get the ball 294 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: depends on how the defense plays it. There's not like 295 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: you know, handing off ball off to the half back 296 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: running up the middle. So when you run plays that 297 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: have you know, some type of an option to them, 298 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: then you know you don't know for sure who's going 299 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: to get the ball. So um, that's just you know, 300 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: an unpredictable part of that play. It's like running a 301 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: pass play when you unless it's a screen pass, when 302 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: you drop back and throw the ball, you don't know 303 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: which receiver you're throwing to. It depends on the cover 304 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: each and the matchup that you get. So it's the 305 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: same thing on an option type run. It could go 306 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: to um that could the back quarterback could keep it, 307 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: or the quarterback could hand it all if it really 308 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: depends on how the defense, you know, how they how 309 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: they defend the play. So um, you know, I think 310 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: those numbers are with all due respect, I mean I 311 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: think they're a little bit the defense if they played 312 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 1: a certain way, they could you know, put the ball 313 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: in whosever's hands they want to if they want, you know, 314 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: if they really wanted to clear who's going to get 315 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: the ball. So we'll see how teams play us going 316 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: forward on those type of players. If we run those again, 317 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, we'll, you know, do what's best each 318 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: week based on the team that we're playing and how 319 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: we feel like we you know, kind of attack them. 320 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 1: And the last question, Phil Perry filling your muting. We're 321 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: happy now, Yes, Safety, you got me, Sorry about that, 322 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: lost my connection there. I think for a second, um, Bill, 323 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about that the Edelman running 324 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. There is that first play that that 325 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 1: last touchdown drive. I'm wondering if if you guys saw 326 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: anything throughout the earlier portion of the game with those 327 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: motions that I know you guys use a lot of 328 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 1: um and how Miami was reacting that may have led 329 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: to that being the right call in that spot. Was 330 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: there something about those types of looks before where those 331 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: guys obviously those motion guys obviously weren't getting the ball 332 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: m that made Edelman a good option to carry it 333 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: on that one? Yeah, Well, I think anytime you set 334 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: up a game plan, you try to have complimentary plays 335 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: in the plan. So if they're taking away a certain thing, 336 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: then theoretically you have something else to compliment that that 337 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: they would have trouble defending or that they're not taken away. 338 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: So you know, Josh does a great jobs is an 339 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: outstanding offensive play call or he does a great job 340 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: of mixing things up, setting things up, and also recognizing 341 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: how the defense is adjusting to certain whether it's formations 342 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: or the deployment of individual personnel or um, you know, 343 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: how their adjustments. Uh. You know, with certain defenses you 344 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: have sometimes one way to adjust it, but sometimes you 345 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: can have more than one way to adjust it, and 346 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: you want to identify offensively what which method they're using. So, um, 347 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, Josh totally understands defenses. He's coached on defense. 348 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: He knows how how defenses operate and what their choices 349 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: are and if they choose one then um you know, 350 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: but they're vulnerable from having not chosen the other one 351 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: in certain areas. So you know, combination of good play calling, 352 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: obviously good execution by the players, and you know, again, 353 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 1: have any good game plan so that if you feel 354 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: like there's, like I said, something that they're taking away 355 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:09,479 Speaker 1: that you have hopefully a complimentary way to um attack 356 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 1: the defense so that they can't as I said, theoretically 357 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: stop both types of plays. So, UM, I would say 358 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 1: probably fell into that category, as as do most of 359 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: our offensive plays. So we try to find someplace that 360 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: we think that we can attack, but if they take 361 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: that away, then um, rather than just trying to attack 362 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: the same spot, then we hopefully can get to something 363 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: that will hit the weakness of the defense, not the 364 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: area that they're trying to trying to take us out of. Um. 365 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: But then it always comes down to whether you can 366 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: you know, execute those complimentary plays or not. And of 367 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: course that was that was very well executed plays, a 368 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: good run by Julian and then we you know, got 369 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: the got the penalty on top of it. So UM, 370 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: you know, those those are things that good play calling, 371 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: good execution. UM, you know that that can lead a 372 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: good results. Great. Okay, thanks you tomorrow. Yeah, sorry for 373 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: those we didn't get too but coach, thanks for the 374 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: extra time. Okay, thank you
