There was there was still one topic I 95 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 2: wanted to actually a couple of topics I wanted to 96 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: get to. One was the past defense GoF had. He 97 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 2: was twenty five to thirty four, seventy four percent completion 98 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 2: with three hundred and nine passing yards. Williams had a 99 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 2: great day, Saint Brown had a great day. Gibbs had 100 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: a great day passing or receiving. Where were the major breakdowns? 101 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 2: As you guys went back and watched the film, where 102 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 2: were the major breakdowns in the Cowboys secondary. 103 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 3: I don't think we dislike Flues enough. 104 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 2: I saw you post that on Twitter. 105 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 3: We don't. We don't dislike Flus enough. 106 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 9: Brian win through this time here, and he was a 107 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 9: Dallas Cowboys dot com guy, and he had a big 108 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 9: thing with Jason Garrett, and people got mad at by 109 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 9: the whole by trying to fire Jason Garrett. I think, 110 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 9: I think this is so much worse than anything that 111 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 9: we could have said about Jason Garrett or Mike McCarthy. 112 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 9: Y'all know how I feel about Mike McCarthy. I think 113 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,119 Speaker 9: this flu situation, it's far worse. At least you won games. 114 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 9: You had some decent out, some decent output on offense 115 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 9: with Mike. Flus is doing things that nobody's good at. 116 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 9: People that aren't bad in space, they're in space. People 117 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 9: that are running these zone looks with a lot of cushion, 118 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,119 Speaker 9: they ain't good at that kind of stuff. 119 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 120 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 9: You have a defensive lineup versus in a Lion's offensive line, Brian, 121 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 9: we saw out of their twenty six sacts about five 122 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 9: of them. We saw a bunch of slants, movement and 123 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 9: gap a Shane. Sure, I ain't see none of that, 124 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 9: Derek Eagles, you. 125 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 3: Know what I mean. 126 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 9: So I ain't saying that Flu's looking like he's trying 127 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 9: to lose on purpose. That'll be irresponsible to me. But 128 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 9: it's like, I'm just a dude with a camera to 129 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 9: microphone and I'm not one of the thirty two best defensive. 130 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 3: As in the league. But I got eyes. 131 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 9: I got eyes and certain things that work for the Cowboys, 132 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 9: and that bit of time where they were solid on defense. 133 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 9: He did none of those things, strangely enough, not even 134 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 9: from those from those games, Eagles, Raiders, whatever. Take the 135 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 9: first two drives in the Lions game. We saw some press, 136 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 9: we saw some blitzing, we saw some movement, we saw 137 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 9: some weird little looks, and I say, cool, Flues, you 138 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 9: might keep your job through this one, and Flu said, 139 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 9: I'd be damn And we didn't do anything. And when 140 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 9: I say we, I'm a fan. The Cowboys didn't do 141 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 9: any of that the rest of the game. And you 142 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 9: saw the points reflected on it, and I don't think 143 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 9: the Lions punted since then since that point. 144 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 11: Right, Yeah, to me, when you start off the game 145 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 11: kind of interesting with your five man line to your 146 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 11: five man pressure, and you get Mary Slie foul on 147 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 11: the field, which we've all been kind of talking about, 148 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 11: and you know, that's a whole nother story. But you 149 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 11: bring on, you bring in the fifth rusher, and then 150 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 11: all of a sudden, the dropbacks, nine dropbacks. You're starting 151 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 11: to get pressure. And then you know, we've all kind 152 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 11: of seen this with Jared Golf is that when he 153 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 11: gets flustered or gets pressure, he'll spike the ball, he'll 154 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 11: throw it into the ground and he'll he'll just he'll 155 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 11: he'll live to fight another day. And then all of 156 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 11: a sudden, you're kind of doing these things. You're getting 157 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 11: this pressure. You're bringing the fifth rusher. They're really not 158 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 11: handling it well. They have to take out one of 159 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 11: their guards and replace him with another guard because the 160 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 11: pressure is so bad. But you're kind of playing a 161 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 11: little bit more man coverage. You're kind of matching up 162 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 11: with him. It's a tough team to play man coverage again, 163 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 11: but you got to find ways to get pressure. And 164 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 11: then you did, and then all of a sudden, you 165 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 11: reverted back to some things that you had done before. 166 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 11: You just went four man line, and you thought you 167 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 11: were good enough to get just with that, with that 168 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 11: that type of pressure, and then all of a sudden 169 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 11: he got a little bit more comfortable. And then now 170 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 11: you're now you're your secondary is in a little bit 171 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 11: of a problem. You weren't very good at either cornerback spot. 172 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 11: You weren't particularly good at safety. And you know that 173 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 11: when when you don't get pressure, then it affects the 174 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 11: way that your secondary plays, especially with guys, with guys 175 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 11: like Saint Brown who plays so well on the move. 176 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 11: You know, Williams plays so well on the move. And 177 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 11: then now you're dealing with you haven't covered a flat 178 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 11: pass all year. People have thrown the ball in the flats, 179 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 11: and it seems like it's just a massive. 180 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 2: Game every time about the linebackers. 181 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 11: It's linebackers, it's you know, it's it's the safeties, it's 182 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 11: the corners coming up. I mean, take your pick. They 183 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 11: haven't they haven't played a flat pass well all year. 184 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 11: And what did what did Dan Campbell try and do? 185 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 8: Early? 186 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 11: They gave me tried to throw some screens, you know, 187 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 11: because he knew it. He knew you were struggling there. 188 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 11: But you were able to get some pressure along the way. 189 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 11: But It's just it's surprising how sometimes you get into 190 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 11: a rhythm where things look, you know, look good, and 191 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 11: then all of a sudden you completely go away from it, 192 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 11: and then by that point then it's too late. 193 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 3: One thing I'm seeing, I'm sorry. 194 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 9: I One thing I'm seeing is I see a lot 195 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 9: of people on the ind and thet kind of defending 196 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 9: flucent a way of well but vised Flues don't blitz 197 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 9: listen is just something that Flues don't do. 198 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 3: If Flus want to keep his job, you might want 199 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: to start. 200 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 9: Dan Quinn was a notorious Cover three guy, but he 201 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 9: got here and he said, boy, we got press man dudes. 202 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 9: Let's go get pressure and just play press man stuff. 203 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 9: I think at some point you have to make the 204 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 9: adjustment for the guys that you have. A couple of 205 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 9: years ago, long time ago, when the Saints were like 206 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 9: really good, right, we saw Jordan Lewis go totally away 207 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 9: from what he does, say, hey man, we need some 208 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 9: extra Alvin catches the ball, Jordan follow Alvin, and Jordan 209 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 9: was like a nickel linebacker type guy. For you, I 210 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 9: would have appreciated Flues if I would have saw just 211 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 9: the effort of hey, you just can't keep Kenneth Murray 212 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 9: or one of these other guys on Gibbs. We can't 213 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,599 Speaker 9: end up in this situation where Marquis bell Is on 214 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 9: jameson Williams. 215 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 3: You can't do that. 216 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 9: I would rather you go away from what you do 217 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 9: and put a suitable body on that player and just 218 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 9: have that dude follow him around and you might give 219 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 9: up big plays, but you don't give up forty four 220 00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 9: points worth of him. You see what I'm saying. I 221 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 9: just want small adjustments and we don't even get small. 222 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 9: And that's what the fail's saying. This ain't my opinions. 223 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 9: I mean that's on failing brun Yeah, small adjustments would 224 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 9: have would have at least and we go back to it. 225 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 9: Two stops? Can we get two stops? And the Cowboys 226 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 9: offense started rolling at the end. They weren't perfect that day, 227 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 9: but they put thirty points on the board on the road. 228 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 9: I think thirty points was enough. 229 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 3: We just didn't get enough on defense. 230 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,599 Speaker 11: Yeah, you're a situation too, where like I was just 231 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 11: looking at the metrics when you're talking about the man 232 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 11: Verson splits and stuff like that, and you know on 233 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 11: five dropbacks, Yeah, when he played, he played man coverage, 234 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 11: they averaged only four point three yards a completion there, 235 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 11: tight window throw about twenty percent, average separation about two yards. 236 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 11: Blitz that's at twenty percent. He had three quarterback pressures 237 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 11: in five dropbacks when he was playing man coverage against 238 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 11: these guys, so obviously he was blitzing to do those 239 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 11: things when he was playing. So to me, it just 240 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 11: it's funny how you go away, you go back to 241 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 11: something where this team just doesn't always look comfortable playing 242 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 11: a ton of now against camp I just I think 243 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 11: it's against certain teams you play different, you have to 244 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 11: play differently, and he's done it, and we gave him 245 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 11: credit for this for the last whether it was play 246 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 11: a lot of zone against the Raiders, play a lot 247 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 11: of zone against Philadelphia, played a lot more man coverage 248 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 11: against Patrick Mahomes in the in the game the other day. 249 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,719 Speaker 11: You know, with this guy, you got to pressure him. 250 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 11: You gotta pressure this quarterback. And that's that's where they 251 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 11: started off with that intent just couldn't carry it, and 252 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 11: their secondary wasn't good enough to have to deal with 253 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 11: the two receivers and the running backside. 254 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: Of the backfield. 255 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 2: Just playing Devil's advocate could this be a situation where 256 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 2: because of the fact that we all know you play 257 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 2: this team in man coverage all day, those receivers are 258 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 2: gonna get open, and those receivers are gonna make some plays. 259 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 2: Do you think it could have been a situation where 260 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: Flus was like, I was able to get through a 261 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 2: couple series where we were able to play man. I 262 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,599 Speaker 2: can't keep doing this because they're gonna torch us and 263 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 2: and so he decided to go to his zone because 264 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 2: he figured that slows them down versus giving up these 265 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: big plays that he thought would be coming if they 266 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 2: continue to play man. 267 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 9: Tell the devil, I said that when you were when 268 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 9: you were in man, you didn't see big plays like 269 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:09,719 Speaker 9: like you you have it. 270 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 3: Seris. 271 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 9: You may get you may get an Armor Ross Saint Brown, 272 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 9: Deep Crosser, but you gotta live with those because he's 273 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 9: Armor Rod Saint Brown, Gibbs may have a big play 274 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 9: in an open space. 275 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,599 Speaker 3: You have to live with those. That's who he is. 276 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 9: You can the same thing saying you can't let everybody 277 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 9: go crazy all game. You have to disrupt the timing. 278 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 9: This is a timing based offense, and how you disrupt 279 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 9: timing ain't give them twelve yards of room to operate. 280 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 9: That ain't how you disrupt timing. You disrupt time by 281 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 9: putting somebody on the line of scrimmage and disrupt the timing, 282 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 9: or flaring a linebacker out to where you think somebody 283 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 9: might be in disrupt and disrupt timing in that way. 284 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 9: Even if past rushing you know, doesn't always get there. 285 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 9: You gotta do something to just get Golf off his spot. 286 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 9: But once Golf was comfortable, ain't. 287 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 3: Knowing you can do right. 288 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 2: But what I want to know is I want What 289 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 2: I want to know is up until this game, did 290 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 2: the metrics. If you play this team in man, they 291 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 2: will beat you. If you play this team and zone, 292 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: that's your best chance. That's what I don't know, because 293 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 2: there has to be more involved. Like obviously, when we're 294 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 2: talking about a guy that is a defensive coordinator in 295 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 2: the NFL, he knows certain things. I mean, by the way, 296 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 2: it's stuff we could probably look up. But my point 297 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 2: is there had to be a reason why he went 298 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 2: away from it. And that's what I'm trying to phrase. 299 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: Why would he go away from it? Because I agree 300 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 2: with you guys, it looked like it was working early 301 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 2: and went away from it and didn't go back to it. 302 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: It didn't seem like the metrics. 303 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 11: The metrics will tell you that gall through eleven touchdown 304 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 11: passes under pressure on one hundred and fifty eight attempts 305 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,559 Speaker 11: for a seven about seven percent touchdown rate. This is 306 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 11: last year. This season, he's thrown just two touchdown passes 307 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 11: under pressure on one hundred and sixteen attempts. That's one 308 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 11: point seven percent touchdown rate. And this was this was 309 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 11: the matchup that had going in. The Cowboys have generated 310 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 11: the tenth highest pressure rate this season thirty five almost 311 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 11: thirty six percent, but they've allowed the third highest passer 312 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 11: rating when doing so, win pressuring win pressure. See that's 313 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 11: the thing about they they're there. It's the gamble. That's 314 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 11: just the gamble that when you're golf, the metrics tell 315 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 11: you golf has not performed well. The metrics will tell 316 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 11: you Dallas pressures people, but they don't also cover very well. 317 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: I'll take that. 318 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 11: I'll take the gamble of pressuring and seeing that golf 319 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 11: is going to maybe not handle it well. 320 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 3: That's that's what I would have. 321 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 9: I would definitely take that because at least I know 322 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 9: the pressure could get there. But if you only rushing 323 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 9: for show me, to show me the metrics of us 324 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 9: rushing four and whatever that hasn't been something that's consistently 325 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 9: has worked for them. It's probably all I want from Flus, 326 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 9: and I don't want to know what. But all I 327 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 9: wanted from Flus is if you try something and you 328 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 9: make a change and it don't work, just make another 329 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 9: adjustment at that time. 330 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 3: That's all. Just make another jumb I've seen this cowboy offense, 331 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 3: do it.

Segment. All right, let's go, and 422 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: you had a question just before the break, what's your 423 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 2: What was the question? 424 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 5: Okay, let me let me be honest because watch I'm 425 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 5: not trying to argue with you because I'm just I'm 426 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 5: just starting to be nice to Derek. But it's really 427 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 5: a question directed to Derek. But fine in front of me. 428 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 5: But it's this whole thing. 429 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 2: You're looking at me, but you're h yeah, this is 430 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 2: that transitive thing. 431 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, but I have to be nice to sure, But 432 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 5: but no, I still I say again, and I agree. 433 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 5: I'm an extent where you look at a coach that 434 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 5: has a history that you've seen them have success in 435 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 5: the NFL, and you know what they can do, all 436 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 5: of a sudden gets to this point where you're like, well, 437 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 5: nothing is really working. You got to spark once you 438 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 5: added veteran guys to the roster that are professional as well, 439 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 5: that have time in the NFL, that are productive. But 440 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 5: yet that's only gonna last you to a certain extent, 441 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 5: because then once again your false false, false, faults false, 442 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 5: they're gonna start picking through once again. And I think 443 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 5: it's to this point now that at some point, just 444 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 5: like when, oh my god, why am I blanking out Clark? 445 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 5: When he came to the roster, that we saw the 446 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 5: immediate impact in the run defense, We saw that immediately, 447 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 5: We're like whoa, whoa, wow, Okay, now working with something, 448 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 5: and all of a sudden he started fading away once again. 449 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 5: So I think now is yes, you got that initial impact, 450 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 5: and now you're back to what it truly is and 451 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 5: what it has truly been. So I'm with you in 452 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 5: this thing. I'm like, Okay, you have to give credit 453 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 5: from his past, but this is the present and you 454 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 5: have a bunch of question marks that you're like, Okay, 455 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 5: at some point you think it's going to start kicking 456 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 5: in and you see what you see on tape. And 457 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 5: that's where I bring the question where it's like, Okay, 458 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 5: I love Brian Schottenheimer, absolutely love him. I love everything 459 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 5: he's doing and with him with everything that he's building. 460 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 5: But it makes me wonder at times where him being 461 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 5: the head coach and also the play caller, does that 462 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 5: take away his focus a little bit from what he 463 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 5: should be doing as a head coach as far as 464 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 5: voicing certain things on the defensive side of the ball 465 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 5: and being as accountable as he's been on the offense, 466 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 5: taking that accountability over to the defense. 467 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 2: Well, I will say this, I do think that that 468 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 2: has happened this season. If you remember, if you've been 469 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: following coach Schottenneimer, he talked about how there was a 470 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 2: point where he went over to the defensive room and 471 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 2: started asking some questions and saying, why are we doing 472 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 2: this and why is this? And I think when you 473 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 2: hire someone when you're the head coach and you hire 474 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 2: someone as your coordinator, I think you need to step 475 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 2: back and let them coordinate until you see that things 476 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 2: aren't working, and then you need to step in and 477 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 2: you need to say, Okay, let's have some conversation, let's 478 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 2: figure out why this isn't working, what needs to change, 479 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 2: and then you need to help them walk through that 480 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 2: until you get the results you want. I don't think 481 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 2: and my arguments that remain the same. I don't think 482 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 2: Flu's forgot how to call a defense. I think he's 483 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 2: been a really good defensive coordinator. So what it says 484 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 2: to me is there's more going on here than just 485 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 2: Fluce other things that play here regarding the players that 486 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 2: that also is a part of the problem. Now, this 487 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 2: is a results based business, so at the end of 488 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 2: the day, he's gonna have to be accountable to the 489 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 2: fact that, regardless of what the problems are, he didn't 490 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 2: figure out a solution and or to this point, hasn't 491 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 2: come up with a consistent solution to whether his team 492 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,959 Speaker 2: is playing consistently well on defense. They're still giving up 493 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 2: forty four points uh in games, and that's not going 494 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 2: to be good enough because it's a results based business. 495 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 2: But I don't think it's all FLUSE. I think there 496 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,239 Speaker 2: are other things that play here. 497 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 3: I have so much, Brian, you want to go first, 498 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 3: I got so much. 499 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 11: Go ahead. 500 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 9: First of all, let me say I never changed my 501 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 9: tone on FLU So you did, and I did. Dere 502 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 9: Derek came and asked us, heyes, did good man? 503 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 3: What you feel like? Hold your horse to see more? 504 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 3: I need to see it ten more times. So anbar 505 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 3: is lying on me. 506 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 5: There, I admit it. I said it. I dart write them. 507 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 3: Looking at you. 508 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,360 Speaker 5: WHOA, he doesn't right. 509 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 2: I'm about to get meat up out it Birthday. I 510 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 2: wonder what's third bro? 511 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 3: I wonder. 512 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 9: And this ain't me reporting that, because because because we 513 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 9: got responsibilities here, I'm not reporting nothing. This is just 514 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 9: my own theory. I wonder if Shoddy wants to move 515 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 9: on from FLUS, but higher management probably don't want that. Second, 516 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 9: he didn't hur for sure for Shure. I wonder if 517 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 9: if it was his decision with this little like college 518 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 9: football said it like you out of here? 519 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 3: Why we playing? 520 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 9: And we about to go find somebody else, watch somebody. 521 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 9: I wonder if that if that would be the case 522 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 9: my whole thing about Flus and Ambar makes fantastic points. 523 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 9: When we get new players a look cool for a 524 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 9: little bit, and then it go back to what it 525 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 9: was because the other team makes the adjustments, but Flu's doesn't. 526 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 9: So if you got Osa and Solomon to worry about, 527 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 9: that's what that team preps for. If Kenny Clark pops 528 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 9: up magically, then you got about three games of the 529 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 9: league trying to adjust to Kenny Clark and then they'll 530 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 9: figure it out. Quinn Williams pops up magically, looks fantastic. 531 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 9: You need to come I stant league make adjustments in 532 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 9: the National Football League, And that's where I think Derek's 533 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 9: point is coming from. Flus may not have magically rolled 534 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,719 Speaker 9: out the being forgot how to coach, but sometimes as 535 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 9: as an older coach, not like he's old old, but 536 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,239 Speaker 9: he's been a coordinator and a head coach, he's kind 537 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 9: of established a little bit. He's not as hungry as 538 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 9: another coach that's up three in the morning trying to 539 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 9: make adjustments. That's trying to make change. I guess whatever 540 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 9: he wants to roll out is what he wants to 541 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 9: roll out. Maybe he's not on it like everybody else. 542 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 9: And this is just me assuming as well. But that's 543 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 9: just what it looks like, right, He's not making the 544 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 9: extra adjustment that a hungry coach would probably want to. 545 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: But could it also be because I think this happens 546 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 2: with veteran coaches sometimes they get into this mindset of 547 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 2: we just got to keep doing it until we figure out. 548 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: We gonna figure it because I've seen this work. It's like, 549 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 2: what was that that line from Remember the Titans? He said, 550 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 2: it's like nova, Can you just keep running it? Eventually 551 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 2: it's gonna work like it. I think veteran coaches sometimes 552 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 2: because they've seen it, they also do. 553 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 3: This for players. 554 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 2: I've seen this guy play. Well, I'm just gonna keep 555 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 2: trusting that if I keep giving the opportunity, mur you're 556 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 2: gonna get right. Maybe that's the deal with Murray. But 557 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 2: and by the way, I'm not saying that's right. That 558 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 2: then they have to be accountable for that if they're 559 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 2: gonna go that route. But I do think that's probably 560 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 2: more likely for a veteran coach than just he's not hungry. 561 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 2: I think they all want to. 562 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 5: With today's NFL, that mentality, in my opinion, no longer 563 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 5: works because the games happen so quickly, the season flies by. 564 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 5: And I've seen it enough in the time that I've 565 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 5: been working here that when you just keep doing the 566 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 5: same thing over and over more often than not, it's 567 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 5: just never gonna work. Like it doesn't. It doesn't. And 568 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 5: then all of a sudden, you're sitting here in December, 569 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 5: you're running out of time. You're like, well, there goes 570 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 5: another season we saw. I mean, we've seen this over 571 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 5: and over again, and the end result, it's the end 572 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 5: of result. It doesn't work. 573 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 2: I'm with you. 574 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 5: You have to be able to adjust, to look at 575 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 5: what you're working with and know, okay, well crap, now, 576 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 5: maybe his adjustment will making that change in that game 577 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 5: that you're like, why he going away from it? It's 578 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 5: also making the right. 579 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 11: Adjustment, but you're also dealing with the first first time 580 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 11: head coach, and you know, and some of these sometimes 581 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 11: you're in a situation where if you're a guy that 582 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 11: feels like you're going to you know, you're going to 583 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 11: get a job as a head coach, you have an 584 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 11: idea of guys that you want to bring along with you, 585 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 11: you know, And so here's Brian Schottenheimer. He has an 586 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 11: idea of the guys here. Look look at the. 587 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 3: Guys on staff. 588 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 11: I mean he basically kept everybody on the offensive staff, 589 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 11: and then they got rid of the line coach and 590 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 11: brought a new one in and a new coordinator and 591 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 11: all that things that they needed. But those are things 592 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 11: that he was familiar with and sa all of a 593 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 11: sudden though, as as a first time head coach, you're 594 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 11: a little bit of the mercy of the front office. 595 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 11: Front offices. Listen, we were with this guy, Matt Eberflus 596 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 11: when he was here. Yeah, oh yeah, I know Flu. 597 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 11: So I don't know him personally, but does his philosophy 598 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 11: match where Brian Schottenheimer's philosophy is. I think if you 599 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 11: had to say through fourteen weeks of the season, there 600 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,640 Speaker 11: are things now that Brian Schottenheimer knows as a head 601 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 11: coach and now knows about Matty Flu's scheme that he 602 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 11: would probably say, listen, I would like to change this. 603 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 11: I would like to change this. And so sometimes as 604 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 11: that first time head coach, you're so happy to have 605 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 11: the job and somebody recommends a guy. Listen, we were 606 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 11: with this guy. This guy can coach. Just okay, man, 607 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 11: I trust you I'm going along with you if that, 608 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 11: But it might not fit your philosophy, it might not 609 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 11: fit how you want it coached. You know, those are 610 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 11: the things you have to kind of, you know, let's 611 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 11: be honest. Mike McCarthy got very fortunate with dan Quinn. 612 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 11: He talked about being hungry. Dan Quinn went out and 613 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 11: reinvented himself the time he had off. You know, Matt 614 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 11: Ebraflus went from a head coach to back to being 615 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 11: a coordinator. So there are things I think think that 616 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 11: Brian Schottenheimer clearly would like to do differently, And I 617 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 11: think if he had to do it over that he 618 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 11: would probably with the experience that he has now, maybe 619 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 11: he would have liked that opportunity to hire his own coach. 620 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 11: But when he got the job, he was just grateful 621 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 11: he had the job, and he put together the staff 622 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 11: how he saw fit, with some recommendations from the front office, 623 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 11: and now that what he knows, maybe he would have 624 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 11: done things a little bit differently. 625 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 3: Got a break. 626 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take our final break, and do 627 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 2: you have something you want to throw it? 628 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 3: I got so much more about Flues.

We've been talking 693 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 2: about the defense. I want to zero in a little 694 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 2: bit on the linebacker position. Let's start first by I 695 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: want you guys to give me an assessment of what 696 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 2: you think of Logan Wilson's play and what you think 697 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: of Kenneth Murray's play, because these are the two linebackers 698 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 2: that are predominantly kind of in the spotlight as the 699 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 2: supposedly the guy now we're not We're going to put 700 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 2: a pen in Overshown for a minute, because he's coming back. 701 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: He's actually the linebacker playing the most. But these other 702 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 2: two are the are the guys that that I think 703 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 2: are playing. The amount that they're playing is probably flipped 704 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 2: from what most people thought when they acquired Logan Wilson. 705 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 2: What do you think of Logan Wilson's playing? What do 706 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 2: you think of Ken Murray's playing? 707 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 9: Nobody's playing fantastic. Let me just say that nobody's knocking 708 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 9: it out the park, not even overshan really, But yeah, 709 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 9: Murray is just like obviously not getting the job done. 710 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 9: And that's the nicest way I could say, because I 711 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 9: was gonna say something meaning, but I thought about what 712 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 9: you know, what ambar say, and I would find a 713 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 9: very nice way to say it. Murray's just not doing 714 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 9: his part. I would love to know who's in charge 715 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 9: of the rotation. I would love to know how much 716 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 9: power the head coach got in that rotation, you know, 717 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 9: like the say in which who who does? Because I 718 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 9: would love it if somebody say, hey man, this fifty 719 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 9: nine thing ain't working. Can we run with the catch 720 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 9: we just acquired that that that looks a little better. 721 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 9: Like I said, man, Logan hasn't been like a pro bowler, 722 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 9: but at least he does small things like game ground. 723 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 9: He's when he's dropping, he's kind of in the right 724 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 9: direction when he's moving in a certain place. I'm gonna 725 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 9: defend Murray on this one thing. There were some cowboy 726 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 9: fans that was mad at him because you know, he 727 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 9: couldn't tackle Gibbs and open space with nobody's gonna be 728 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 9: able to do that. Shamar wasn't gonna be able to 729 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 9: do it, Mary's wasn't gonna be able to do it 730 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 9: overshown or like nobody they weren't gonna tackle Gibbs in 731 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 9: open space like that. 732 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 3: But all right, Murray, you can't tackle Gibbs and over space. 733 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 3: I get it. 734 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 9: What's your next play look like? And the next thirty 735 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 9: or so Murray plays? It sounds mean when I say 736 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 9: I promise him not being mean. It looked like he 737 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 9: doesn't think and run at the same time. He's either 738 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 9: running maybe a little slow to it, or he's thinking 739 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 9: and he's not moving. I'm not being mean. That's just 740 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 9: my that's just how I look at it. So a 741 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 9: lot of times, what happened is is if you do 742 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 9: any kind of misdirection, any kind of little motion, he 743 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 9: stops moving. I would at least take a guy like 744 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 9: Logan Wilson that'll move in a direction and if he's wrong, 745 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 9: he'll plant his foot and just go the other way. 746 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 9: Overshon does it as well. I think Murray played like 747 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 9: ten more rep then Logan. 748 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 12: Did. 749 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 3: I believe Murray was in the thirties Logans in the twenties. 750 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 4: Yeah. 751 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 9: I made a joke that if they just playing the 752 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 9: same amount of series or whatever, that is just take 753 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 9: longer to put points on the board with Logan, Like 754 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 9: there's just longer drives with Murray on the field than 755 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 9: it deals with Logan on the field. Your linebacker play 756 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 9: ain't good. You're probably gonna have to address that in 757 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 9: the offseason. But if it's all over these the last 758 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 9: four games anyway, and we just evaluating for the future, 759 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 9: I don't think fifty nine is going to. 760 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 3: Be a part of it. 761 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 11: He played nineteen more snaps. 762 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 9: Nineteen more, Yeah, Murray played nineteen more than Logan. 763 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, fifty percent snaps for him, forty two percent snaps 764 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 2: for Logan Wilson, only fifteen percent for Marrisleophile's. 765 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 11: That's once again, it's the hazards of when you have turnover. 766 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 11: And this is probably why the front office doesn't want 767 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 11: to have turnover. Maybe coach Schottenheimer doesn't want to turnover 768 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 11: with the defensive coordinator because all of a sudden you 769 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 11: bring in a whole new defensive staff. Well, here we go. 770 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,720 Speaker 11: The players that just this daft drafted will now become 771 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 11: players like Mary's leafhau where all of a sudden we 772 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 11: could not the day three of the draft, sitting in 773 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 11: this room to a scout, a coach, we had the 774 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 11: linebacker coach has had everybody in here, and they could 775 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 11: not say enough great things about Mary's Leifel. I mean, 776 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 11: Mary Sleefel is like you would swear he was the 777 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 11: greatest linebacker to ever played. And now under this current regime, 778 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 11: Marus Leafel can't find his way to the field, you know, 779 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 11: and you wonder, you wonder if he is a fit. 780 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 11: And this is the hazards when you when you keep 781 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 11: turning over certain groups or coaches, your group becomes a 782 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 11: little bit mismatched. And maybe maryers Leafel doesn't fit into 783 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 11: where under the Mike Zimmer regime he was destined to 784 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 11: be a guy that was going to get almost every snap. 785 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 11: That's just not the case right now. 786 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 5: I just I have a problem with this whole mentality 787 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 5: of the difference in coaching, Like, you should be able 788 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 5: because a professional is a professional, an athlete is an athlete. 789 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 5: You're in the NFL, you should be able to and 790 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,720 Speaker 5: I get it, depending on your physique, there are certain 791 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 5: things that you can be better at, but not to 792 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 5: the extent where you're just a mess on the field 793 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 5: and you're incapable of doing what you're supposed to do. 794 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 5: So you I cannot buy into, oh, well, now you 795 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,280 Speaker 5: got a different coach and that player is not thriving 796 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 5: under that scheme. You should be able to coach that 797 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 5: player into what you're trying to do. I'm like this guy, 798 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 5: I can tell this my birthday. All the prices over. 799 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 2: Here because. 800 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 3: Once a week, once a week, you say something that 801 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 3: really stick to me. 802 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 5: But please, I appreciate that, please, But that whole thing is, 803 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 5: there's just no way that you have these guys that 804 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 5: you've seen them be talented in the National Football League 805 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 5: as a whole, where even in college they had experience, 806 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 5: and then you bring him and to use your example, 807 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 5: Brian with Leo fou we saw him last year when 808 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 5: he just came got dropped into there boom, and then 809 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 5: we saw him. We saw the potential, We saw him 810 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 5: have that spark, and we started saying, hey, next year, 811 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 5: that guy, he's gonna be a really good linebacker for 812 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 5: you man. And then all of a sudden, his amount 813 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 5: of time on the field, his snaps, you just keep 814 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 5: dropping and dropping and dropping. You don't see him. You 815 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 5: don't this guy Logan Wilson. We talked about him when 816 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 5: he they just made the trade, and we're like, well, 817 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 5: this guy can do some things. We've seen him do 818 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 5: all of a sudden, nothing like all of a sudden. 819 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 5: We ain't got nobody that works. And I don't believe 820 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 5: that it's a playing I don't because these guys work 821 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 5: really hard. Not that the coaches don't either, but there's 822 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,439 Speaker 5: talent there, and I think anybody else seen another team 823 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 5: would love to have a guy like Leo Foul. 824 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, man, y'all can miss me with this continuity stuff too. 825 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 9: Y'all can miss me with this. I've been hearing that 826 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 9: a lot, all the defensive continuity. You want to know 827 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 9: one thing that whoops connuity every single time. It is 828 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 9: better dudes, Better dudes whip continuity every single time. We 829 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 9: had a lot of change at the let's just say 830 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 9: the old line coach, right constant change, the old line coach, Salari, 831 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 9: fielbn whatever, whatever. But when you get a dude up 832 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 9: in here, that's that's good. That's two good old line coaches. 833 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 9: Your old line looks a little different than what it 834 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 9: previous has. You know what I'm saying, Nobody, nobody's saying 835 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 9: that about Oh, the wide receiver coaches are different, the 836 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 9: old line coaches are different. 837 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 3: What about that? 838 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 9: There's a huge contrast between Kellen call and plays and 839 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 9: then Mike call and plays and then shoddy calling plays. 840 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 9: Better dudes make those things better. So now, once we 841 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 9: got the right dude in the seat, then we can 842 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 9: build connuity. So your two Clayton Adams, your two Shinnenheimer 843 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 9: year two, whoever, whoever, Now you're building connuity once you 844 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 9: got the right dude in place. I don't want to 845 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 9: know what Flu's connuity looks like, and it may sound mean, 846 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 9: pardon me, I don't want to know what Flu's connuity 847 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 9: sounds like. I'm sure that if you get a better 848 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 9: physical coordinator in here, everybody's gonna start playing better. Then 849 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,359 Speaker 9: you build coninuity from that. I don't want to build 850 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 9: connuity on something that ain't working right now. 851 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 2: I ask your question, it's impossible that disposition, the linebacker position, 852 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 2: linebacks could be holding this defense back. 853 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:32,919 Speaker 3: Man, everybody looking bad. 854 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 2: I get that, But I'm saying the position and the 855 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: role that the linebacker plays could really bad. Play at 856 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 2: the linebacker position. Could that be affecting other positions as well? 857 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 3: Expertise, it is whispering, it is, it is. 858 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 2: But I'm saying, though, is could that be the biggest 859 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 2: problem that this defense as? Like if you solve that problem, Oh, 860 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 2: if tomorrow you solve that linebacker problem, do you think 861 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 2: this defense is better? 862 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 3: Man? I think if you had two all Pro linebackers 863 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,839 Speaker 3: right now, I think flu So find a way. 864 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 9: Now that's just hating brou I think, okay, so how 865 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 9: about this shouts my guy will still right, my guy 866 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 9: will still a tweet about this? 867 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 4: Right? 868 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 9: He was like Mike Zimmer, like in the middle of 869 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 9: the season, realized who Overshawn was. It's like a pass rusher. Yeah, 870 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 9: So all of a sudden we saw a bunch of 871 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 9: overshown pass rushing, five sacks like tapers for lost all 872 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 9: this kind of stuff. Right now, we got a dude 873 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 9: that kind of sees who and we don't get none 874 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 9: of that. Where's the using what you got? 875 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 2: No, it's Quinn with Micah, it's Quinn with Michael. 876 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 9: Where's the using what you got? And we got Quinn 877 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 9: Williams up here, and Quinn used all his superpowers as 878 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,479 Speaker 9: much as he could, But like, what's the next step, 879 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 9: what's the next adjustment? So I feel Michael could have 880 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 9: been here. Fred Warner could be here. I don't know 881 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 9: if I can say names best corner of the league 882 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 9: could be here. You could have traded for Sauce, he 883 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 9: could have been here. I still think Sauce Gardener will 884 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 9: be playing twelve yards off the line of scrimmage. I 885 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 9: still think Fred'll be running all over the place trying 886 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 9: to get somebody the lineup prop. I still think it'll 887 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 9: be goofy up in here. I still think you if 888 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 9: you had the best blitzing linebacker in the league, Flutes 889 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 9: wouldn't Blitzer wouldn't blitz them. Bill kan Neuty with another dude, Sorry, Flus, 890 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 9: We we work together.
