1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: Okay, So just on yesterday's news, I spoke with spoken

2
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 1: Josh yesterday morning, um, as I have several times since

3
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: he's been here, and you know, it's obviously an unfortunate situation,

4
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 1: and personally, I hope wish him very best, as we

5
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 1: all do on this team. He's made a statement at

6
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 1: the organization's made a statement, Leagus made a statement. I've

7
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: spoken at him at length over the last three months,

8
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 1: and so I don't really have anything at this point

9
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: to add to that. It's a private matter and I

10
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: hope that he's able to deal with it successfully. So otherwise,

11
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: we're moved on to Buffalo and a big challenge ahead

12
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: of us on on Sunday to be a big day

13
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: for us, and we didn't make most of them be ready.

14
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: To god, you did you find out yesterday when you

15
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: spoke to Josh? Did you would you move on? Yeah?

16
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna again. Everything's been said. I have nothing

17
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: to add to it. That's it. There. A lot of

18
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: the players have expressed sadness, you know, for a teammate

19
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: they really liked. They also talked about moving on like

20
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: you just did, and how there's a process and that

21
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: what have you noticed from the players how they responded,

22
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: whether it's yesterday today to this situation. Yeah, let's stay

23
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: a game. Um, I know Buffalo is tough. I know

24
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: they're going to compete and what we need to do

25
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: to be competitive against them. So the practice of that

26
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: um in mind yesterday, to do it again today Saturday

27
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: and be ready to go on Sunday. How difficult is

28
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: it to get this news on a Thursday in weegue

29
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: sixteen and you guys are getting ready to stretch role? Yeah,

30
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: well it is what it is. How much do you

31
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: in space? Losing him is gonna change the offenise to

32
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: change what you guys have to do on that side

33
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: of the ball. Uh. Yeah, Look, we have a lot

34
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: of good players who have a lot of people that

35
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: have contributed and perform well force and I have a

36
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: lot of confidence in them the whole team. I feel

37
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: like you guys did all that you could while Josh

38
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: was here for him. Yeah, I'm not gonna I'm not

39
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: gonna address any comments on there and make any comments

40
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: on that. Are you going to continue to work with him?

41
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: Are you gonna kind of part ways with him? We're

42
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 1: gonna get ready for Buffalo and play Buffalo on Sunday.

43
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: What does Philip doors Set drop the team this year?

44
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: Same thing he's brought it last year. Smart guy, that's

45
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: first all play, multiple positions, dependable player, of course. How

46
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: would you describe door Set's attitude and work at THIC

47
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: after playing so much in the first month of the

48
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: season and having to take a back season when Edel

49
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: Millingborg came. Phil's tremendous, tremendous kid, great teammate. I think, yes,

50
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: everybody's total respect in the locker room, on everything. It's preparation,

51
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: what he treats other people, how un selfish he is.

52
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: I was always ready for his role. I saw that

53
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl last year. So there's I think

54
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: you could ask for any more than what he gives

55
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: the team. Which confidence ye're remaining? Whys here you go?

56
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: Confidence in our team? Bill? Would you look into eventually

57
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: adding a wide receiver at this point in the year,

58
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: which is too hard? Great thick. Yeah, We're gonna try

59
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: to put the other best game plan, a vanous competitiors

60
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: we can against Buffalo on Sunday. That's why I look

61
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: m over right now, did Josh and press you while

62
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: you're here with his ability just to fit in and

63
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: be productive earway, it seems fairly rare for receivers. Yeah,

64
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: then we're gonna focus on Buffalo. I think I've commented

65
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: on that multiple times. Should we play transcripts on that

66
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: if you want to read up on him. What do

67
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,239
Speaker 1: you see from Patterson in the last couple of weeks?

68
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: Is he's played more receiver here that like three week

69
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: period where he's playing ring back but more receiveres Yeah,

70
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: well he's played, let's played multiple positions for us going

71
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: all the load back to the spring, so so it

72
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: goes so a lot of confidence and things he can do,

73
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: and he's done multiple things for us. It was that

74
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: something the coaching staff has to try to handle during

75
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: the season when you're our game isn'tname to be lost

76
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: their updated players on what their expectations are from them,

77
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: like what their roles might be. International Football League, it's

78
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: pretty much like that every week on every team at

79
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: some position, not every position, but that's some position. When

80
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: you think of Sean McDermot Coachaine, what stands out to

81
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: you well coached, very fundamentally sound play, a great effort

82
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: in toughness, discipline, make you earn everything defensively very sound.

83
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: It comes to alan. It's interesting to see how good

84
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: flore especially recently. This is what's conjections coming out of college.

85
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: Is that a position where you determine or is that

86
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: a position where it's difficult to determine what order will

87
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: give you based on physical skill set? One that the

88
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: production wasn't quite where it was for him and my

89
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: own versus. Well, that's true. Let's say the majority of

90
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: the rookies, take them out of college, put them into

91
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: whichever system they go into, and and then evaluate how

92
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: that goes. It's sometimes quite different, especially if the systems

93
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: are different. I mean, anytime to take a player from

94
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: one system depend them another system, you see things that

95
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: weren't you didn't see before, and maybe you don't see

96
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: some of the things that you did see before because

97
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: its a different system. So he's a good player, it's

98
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: very athletic, it's got a good arm, it's a good competitor,

99
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: he's tough. It's not a good job one from we're

100
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: learning about Damon Patterson since he's signed a good practice

101
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: quay let, a good job for us learning the offense um.

102
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: Most of his reps come on the scout team but

103
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: he also is learning the offense and is able to

104
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: do more and more things each week for of what

105
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: we do. So there's that. All practice squad players kind

106
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: of go through that where they they work on their

107
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: fundamentals and techniques in simulating the other teams players. Um,

108
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: that's the same time, learn what we do in fewer

109
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: opportunities to do it because the players who are playing

110
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: get most of those. But he's making progress, ended his

111
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: rule shots, healthy all year, So that's a good thing

112
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: about question. Curiously, I know what I said practice slud

113
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: guy to Heretic Smith just to lose him. I mean

114
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: he said, you know what's on the practice squads? Do

115
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: you have any thoughts on just so that using him

116
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: that layer in depth, and that's sort it's the National

117
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: Football League. We see those transactions every week. Sure, well,

118
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: Sam again next week somewhere in the league. I mean,

Speaker 1: Buffalo just signing got San Francisco's practice squading more time

123
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,880

124
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: This week. No, I know what I'm saying. This time

125
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: of year, you see that more than I don't know.

126
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: You tell me a week three or four, is that

127
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: our teams taken him a lot by it? Yeah? Yeah,

128
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: you don't claim them at the fifty three. They're on

129
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: somebody else's practice squad. Do you need a guy? You

130
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: sign them? That's yeah. Do you have a spot and

131
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: you like the guy. I don't know the frequency of it,

132
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: but again, it happens all year long. It happens. I

133
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: mean every team, Like we've lost them, We've signed them

134
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: off other teams practice squads. They signed all of ours.
