Speaker 1: Steve about this. But we know the players are off

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,160

6
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: schedule look like for coaches heading into the bye week?

00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 1: You know, Drog said, you guys just aren't there just

00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 1: like chilling and kicking it like some of the players.

9
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: So what's it like going into the bye week? Is

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: it like especially busy week or is it a little

11
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: lighter or does it or is it busy because you

12
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: get to go deeper into stuff. Well, it's a unique

13
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 1: opportunity for us to you know, kind of look back

14
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: at the first beginning of the weeks and then also

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: to look for the next upcoming weeks ahead of us,

16
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: you know, so try to do a combination of both.

17
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: Focus on ourselves, see what we can get better in

18
00:00:55,280 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: and how we can improve with the upcoming weeks going forward.

19
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: Any time off over the over the weekend to watch football,

20
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 1: we'll see hopefully. Thank you. Hey, we'll go to Bob

21
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: Soci next. Go ahead, Bob. Thanks Aaron good morning to Marcus.

22
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: How you do Bob, I'm doing well. Thanks, hope everything's

23
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: going off for you. Um. Let me ask about Joan

24
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: Bentley as a linebacker. I now you're coaching this guy's

25
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: up front, but his his ability to play so physically,

26
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: uh and you know against the run in particular. But

27
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: now he's seen him, uh you know, apply some pressure,

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: come up with an interception as well. How how does he,

29
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: in your view, you know, compliment those guys. How do

30
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: they compliment him in the consistency that he's shown. What

31
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: have you seen from that from him in that regard? Juwan,

32
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: I have run Juan Biler when he was a rookie,

33
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: you know, when I was coaching a linebackers and uh,

34
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: you know, I would say a leader on the field,

35
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: leader off the field. And he does a really good

36
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: job of communicating and control in the front. And so

37
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: as a linebacker, that's one of the key things when

38
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: you look at a linebacker is a communication. And so

39
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: his ability to communicate, get us lined up, put us

40
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: in the right position, put himself in the right position.

41
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: You know, it's key for our defense. And he each

42
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: year he's he's improved on that and and he's it shows,

43
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: you know, it shows on Sundays, it shows in the

44
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: practice field. Um. The way he practices, uh, pretty much

45
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: all that, you know everything, And he brings very good

46
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: intensity and effort to the practice field, which shows up

47
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: on game day. Um in a run game and pass game. Um. So,

48
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,679
Speaker 1: and he's able to blitz. He's able to do a

49
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: lot of good things for us, which is which is

50
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: helping us out as a team. Having had him as

51
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: a rookie, I remember Nickel Sirio saying on draft night

52
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: that you know, this was a three time captain. When

53
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: you guys get to know his story, you're gonna really

54
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: like him a lot. Did you see that right away?

55
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,679
Speaker 1: That the leadership skills that he brought in as even

56
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 1: as a rookie, and he's in a group that's really experienced.

57
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: He had a lot of veteran players at that position

58
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: to that point, Yeah, I think as a leader, you know,

59
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: he had a lot of good people that was in

60
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,399
Speaker 1: front of him. So he also was a good follower.

61
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: So he learned a lot of good things from the

62
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: guys that were in that room, from the pat previous

63
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: linebackers that play for us. And he's got a good leader.

64
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: That's coaching them right now. And so when when you're

65
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: talking about, you know, being able to lead people and

66
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: being able to follow, he's able to do that, which

67
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: intel makes him a good leader. So you know, we

68
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: did see that early on in his career, and each

69
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: year he just continued to get better and grow as

70
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: he you know, comes into himself as a player and

71
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: as a man. Thanks to Marcus, yep, yeah, I didn't

72
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: see any other hands raised. Um, please raise your hand

73
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:05,480
