1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: You know, back when Marcus Golden was traded. Obviously it's

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time with I'm sure through training

3
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: camp and early part of the season. What was kind

4
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: of going through your head when you see that happened,

5
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: especially as like a rookie coming league and even knowing

6
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: that you probably were gonna get to play more when

7
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: he was gone, even if you're losing a teammate. Um.

8
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 1: Since since I got in the NFL, the whole training

9
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: and and guys being you know, cut from the practice

10
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: squad all that kind of stuff, it's all been crazy.

11
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: I mean we I remember talking to Cam like a

12
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: week into training camp. We already had some some guys

13
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: that had to you know, go home and stuff like

14
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: that because of the COVID stuff and all that, and

15
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,919
Speaker 1: it was just like a welcome to the NFL. And

16
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: it's and it's continued. But that's just the reality of

17
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: of what in the NFL is so um, you know,

18
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: definitely surprised by by some of the things, but um,

19
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: but yeah, I'm I'm getting a little bit more desensitized

20
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: to it just because it's I've got to see affair

21
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: of it, you know. Yeah, And separate from that, what

22
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: has been like, uh, playing for coach bilemma in terms

23
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: of what kind of coach is? Seeing what how much

24
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: has he helped you developed throughout the season. Do you

25
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: feel like, man, he helps so much? Uh. I'd say

26
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: the biggest thing that that works so well for Coach

27
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: B is that he's such a great teacher. Uh. You know,

28
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: I think that a lot of times you can get

29
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: coaches that that aren't specifically great teachers, but that dude's

30
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: like a great teacher and um and he and he's

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: super detailed with it and so you know, for for

32
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: a rookie at the beginning, it was a lot to

33
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: take in. But as we've progressed throughout the year and

34
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, it it's paid off so much.

35
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: The amount of detail, the amount of structure, the amount

36
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: of uh like focused teaching and and and all that

37
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. You know, he's not he's not one

38
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: of those guys that's all right, you better know what

39
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: you're doing otherwise you know you're screwed to get off

40
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: the field. It's like, I'm gonna make sure that you

41
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: know what you're doing. And it's paid huge dividends for

42
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: me and and Cam and Um and Nico and all

43
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: those guys. So yeah, big shout out to coach b

44
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: He's he's a great coach. Part of the coaches made

45
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: it pretty clear that the game plan is a lot

46
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: different or or may change from Russell Wilson. Uh now

47
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: now to um uh to to this week? What did

48
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: the same principles apply though with with Kyler Murray running

49
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: around and and being a mobile quarterback? Uh? In a

50
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: sense they do. Um, you know, they're even though they're

51
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: both mobile quarterbacks, they're completely different. I mean, I'd say

52
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: that Daniel Jones is a is a mobile quarterback, but

53
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: he's completely different, you know what I mean. And so

54
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: every everybody's got their own specific tendencies, they've got their

55
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: own skill set. And as a defense, you know, it's

56
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: our biggest job is to exploit, you know what, what

57
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: they struggle with. And so um, so we you know,

58
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: we have we have different focuses. But in terms of

59
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: you know, what works really well against Russell Wilson was

60
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: we had a we had a game plan, and we

61
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: executed that game plan as an entire defense. It wasn't

62
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: you know, one single player having a crazy game. It

63
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: was collectively when we rushed, We rushed together the d

64
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: the d backs played unbelievable and that allowed us to

65
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: get home and allowed him to pat the ball. So

66
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: some of those things carry over into this game. But um,

67
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 1: but with a couple of different you know, focuses and

68
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: um specific aim. I guess, hey, Carter, you talk about

69
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: Brett and how great a teacher is. I'm wondering what

70
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: separates them from the other teachers you've had in the past. Um, well,

71
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: you know, I I just think that everybody's got a different,

72
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: different coaching style, and you know, different styles work well

73
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: for different people. But um, but you know, coach coach

74
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: bees detail is is really well, I think works so

75
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: well for me. And when he built the defense from

76
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: the beginning, he built it from from the foundation and

77
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: then worked into the detail. It wasn't just like sporadic Okay,

78
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 1: here's what you have to do. Memorize this. It wasn't.

79
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't memorization. It's one plus two equals three because

80
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,239
Speaker 1: two minus one is one, you know what I'm saying.

81
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: Like there was a there was a process to it.

82
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: There was a a precursor like understanding of this is

83
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 1: how I want to build my outside linebacker room based

84
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: on their skills and how they're gonna fit into our

85
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: defense and and so that's what that's what I've really

86
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: liked because it's it's allowed me to get a complete

87
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: understanding of our defense. U Hey, Carter, as a young player,

88
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: how much of a stabilizing forces is Blake to have

89
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: in the middle of your defense and getting everything lined

90
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: up so much? Um, Blake is Blake's like having another

91
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: coach on the field. Uh, you know, especially when I

92
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 1: was doing the inside linebacker stuff, that dude was literally

93
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 1: telling me what I was supposed to be doing every

94
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: single place. So but but throughout a game, um, you know,

95
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: Blake is calling out everything. He's calling out formations, he's

96
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,559
Speaker 1: calling out, um where we're you know, setting the front.

97
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: At times, he's he's reminding the d line what what

98
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: they're supposed to be doing, remind the outside linebackers what

99
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: they're supposed to be doing. So, um, it's it's really

100
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: like having another coach on the field. And so now

101
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: you obviously got knocked out of the end of last game,

102
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: you have to play without him for you know, a

103
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: series and a half. I don't know his statuss for

104
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: Sunday so how much an adjustment is it when he

105
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: wasn't on the field or if if he isn't on

106
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: the field on Sunday, that just means that the guys,

107
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: the guys around him need to elevate their communication. That's

108
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: one thing that he does really, really well. And so

109
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: you know when when Blake went down, that was one

110
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: of those things where as a as a whole defense,

111
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: we just need to communicate more to make up for

112
00:05:59,160 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: that
