1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: The guys that aren't practicing today, j MS ilumin Or Bocollins, Golston, 2 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:16,119 Speaker 1: Vic Darius and a depot. And then in terms of 3 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: the Bears wild game last week against Cincinnati, back and forth, 4 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: five and three, had some close games. They've done a 5 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: good job at the end of games, you know, making 6 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: some plays, whether it's against the Raiders getting the block 7 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: field goal, well it was against Washington on the third 8 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 1: and one fumble, and then obviously the Cincinnati game back 9 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: and forth. So they're doing a good job, i'd say, 10 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: both offensively and defensively. And then you know, we're gonna 11 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:47,959 Speaker 1: have our work cutout for us going there. We'll see 12 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: what the weather is, but we can't control that. We 13 00:00:50,360 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: just got to have a good week here. I don't 14 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: I don't think so, but not one hundred percent. S Yeah, yep, 15 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: you said, Shin, I said, yeah. 16 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: Would you do anything to prepare for the weather? You know, 17 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 2: do you believe in you know, bad ball, that's the stuff. 18 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: I mean, it's gonna it sounds like it's gonna be 19 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: pretty sloppy. 20 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: Well, you look at it, you know, you look at 21 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: the weather. That changes. It's changed a number of times. 22 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: So if you think it's gonna be wet, raining, snowing. 23 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: It's changed the number of times it looks. The last 24 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: time I looked at it looked to thirty six degrees 25 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: in sunny, So here might be it might be different. 26 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: But there's, you know, the wind factor that could play 27 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: into it. So there's a number of things that go 28 00:01:59,320 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: into it. 29 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 3: Daves Burn seems to show up. We obviously he's healthier 30 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: this year emisode than he was last year. What's your 31 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 3: level of respect for just the way he's been going 32 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 3: about it this year. 33 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, And we've talked about Brian a bunch, even in 34 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: OTAs and in training camp and what he's done, just 35 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: how he's practiced and the example that he provides for 36 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: our football team and his paying off in games. He's 37 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: he's been productive. You know, he's you know, battling through 38 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 1: you know, look, he gets chipped and banged and he's 39 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: he's one of our tougher guys and also one of 40 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: our most productive guys. And he's done that really since 41 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: he's been here. But I'd say even you know, we 42 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: talked about it, I think at length in training camp 43 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: and things like that, he's just he showed up and 44 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: he's he's shown up in the games for us. 45 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 3: And he's been you know, he has not been playing 46 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 3: winning team's entire career. What kind of resolve does that 47 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 3: show in to a guy's character who has not been 48 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 3: getting rewarded with results, you know, on the fields, skating, 49 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 3: you know, in terms of wins. 50 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: Sure, I think he's just an ultimate teammate. He lays 51 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: it on the line each week, He does it in practice, 52 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: the way he prepares, you know, he just provides a 53 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: good example for a lot of the guys. And he 54 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: controls the things that he can control. And he's been again, 55 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: he's been productive for us. He's he's leading the league 56 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: in sacks right now. If I'm not mistaken, he's Thane Bell. 57 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's playing obviously a lot of snaps the last 58 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 3: few weeks. 59 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 4: Talk about him, especially his willingness to come up and 60 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 4: put a hat on somebody. What have you seen from him, 61 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 4: because he's basically been a full time Obviously we're hauling out, 62 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 4: So what do you see from them? 63 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, someone that that's ready when his number is called first. 64 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: He's done a great job on special teams for us 65 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: this year. He's been very productive. He's kind of the 66 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: quarterback for us on a punt team with the things 67 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: that he does there, and he's making the most of 68 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: his opportunity. You know, he's That's what you want out 69 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: of your guys that are you know, backing up players 70 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: to be able to come in, be ready, know what 71 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: to do, communicate well, and then perform. And you know, 72 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: in this case, play deep part of the field, tackle, 73 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: play man, demand the things you need do to play secondary. 74 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 3: Has he taken over that back end with Javon out 75 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 3: false communication wise? 76 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a good communicator. Ye knows what we need 77 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: to do. I think the players have a lot of 78 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: respect for him just how he approaches it and you 79 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: can see it on special teams, which again I think 80 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: he's been really really productive on special teams for us 81 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: throughout the year. Now you add you know, now he's 82 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 1: add defense, so you've got to pull back a little 83 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: bit to make sure that you know you're not wearing 84 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: them out. 85 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 3: What do you see arth the Rights the kind of 86 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 3: season with Sleighs had, Do you feel like it's not 87 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 3: been where you and he wants it to be at 88 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 3: or which you characterize. 89 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: That Slaton Slayton Again, Slaton's the ultimate pro. So you know, 90 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: we all we all want to be more productive. But 91 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: he does much like Burns in terms of how he prepares, 92 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: how he works, doing everything you can do. You see 93 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: Caleb in his second year. Yeah, well, I'd say he's 94 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 1: got very good arm talent. He can put the ball 95 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: in tight windows and make some i'd say unbelievable wild throws. 96 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: I think you know the way they're playing right now, 97 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: kind of after their bye week, but they've done a 98 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: sum before their wide week. You know, they're really a 99 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: run heavy team with play action, and he's doing a 100 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: good job of throwing on time. You know, when he 101 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: sets up, turns his back to the defense, you know 102 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: there are a lot of underneath center, and then he 103 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: does a good job of reading it and throwing the 104 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: ball on time with accuracy to you know Dounza, who 105 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: I think is a heck of a receiver. You know, 106 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: he's he can make slippery plays on you and really 107 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,559 Speaker 1: create make loose plays with his feet, make loose plays 108 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: with his arm, has good vision down the field. He's 109 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: done a nice job using something like the injury Jay 110 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: Daniel Sufter Layton lopside of the game running the ball, 111 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: does that give you pause of anything how you've handled 112 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: Jackson late in some of these games. We'll just keep 113 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: developing Jackson. Jackson is a competitor. We'll do the things 114 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: we think we need to do. You know, you never 115 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: you never want to you never want anybody to get hurt. 116 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: But like I've said many times before, it's an opportunity 117 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: every time you step on the field to do that. 118 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: So some of it is scrambling. You know, there's a 119 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: couple of runs that we have on the outside. But 120 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: I'll just keep working with him and do what we 121 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: think we need to do. 122 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 5: Obviously there's a risk reward though most like later in 123 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 5: the game, it's just you just can't coach out of 124 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 5: ever or you say, like when you're on the sideline, 125 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 5: maybe you can take a step out, run lower your 126 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 5: shoulder that yeah, you can. 127 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: You can talk about it. 128 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 3: Uh. 129 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: I've had a guy that was kind of similar in 130 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: that regard to Again, they're competitive guys when you get 131 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: down and I think the one that kind of the 132 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: end of the game, the one scramble was a third 133 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: and ten type play. And again he's he's as competitive 134 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: as they come. You know, you always want to try 135 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: to protect them and coach him on those things, but 136 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: have a lot of confidence in the decisions that he makes. 137 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: That one had difference down right and close. 138 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't know he's running. You're gonna 139 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: ask a player to look and see exactly. I mean, like, 140 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: he's a competitive guy of a confidence and the decision 141 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: makings that he makes. And if there's some that we 142 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: think we can pull back on and learn from, that's 143 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: what that's what we try to do. But I'm not 144 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: going to second guess a guy out there that's competing 145 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: and playing and has good vision and awareness and instincts. 146 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: I wouldn't take that away from him. 147 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 6: And if you've always talked about you know, you want 148 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 6: to be consistent and stay the same every week with 149 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 6: the team, behind the scenes, in front of the cameras, 150 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 6: that kind of thing. Is there ever a time where 151 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 6: circumstances dictate you viewing from that as a head coach 152 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 6: and you, you know, pay attention to that whether it's 153 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 6: good or Yeah. 154 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: I think you can just control the things you can 155 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: control arts. So there's there's gonna be things, you know, 156 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: throughout anytime you coach it that's gonna pop up. And 157 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: I think you gotta keep a levelhead. You gotta do 158 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: the things you need to do to try to improve. 159 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: Look at the team you're playing and get ready to play. 160 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 6: Is that something that's more hard for or has been 161 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 6: hard for you through your three decades of coaching? The 162 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 6: idea you always talk about how fire you are, you're emotional, 163 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 6: but also to kind of strike that tone. It kind 164 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 6: of creates two different sides of. 165 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: You as a coach. I think, you know, experience is 166 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: helpful in this league in a lot of different areas. 167 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: So you know, focused on this week, look forward to 168 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: going out to Chicago and getting ready to play this game. 169 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 6: Run the ball pretty well last week? 170 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: I'm just curious, wouldn't run the ball pretty well every week? 171 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: For the last week. 172 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 3: I think they had like two sixty or something. 173 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: So like don Bosco got there, you go, so like 174 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: what do you when you see that team? 175 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 3: Like? What stands out about how they run the ball 176 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 3: with me? 177 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: Some so effective? A number of things. I think they 178 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: have a good offensive line that communicates well and plays 179 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: well together. Usually get a hat on a hat. They 180 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: have receivers that that block on the perimeter. They've run 181 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: a variety of runs. You know, a lot of their 182 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: big runs have been perimeter plays with swift toss cracks 183 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: or toss zone plays, if you will, outside zone plays 184 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: where you stretch and cut it and then they have 185 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 1: the ability to run inside. I think their offensive line 186 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: is playing well. I think their back see it. They've 187 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 1: had some big plays. I would say a number of 188 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: big plays in the running game on the edges or 189 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: on outside zone that you stretch and you cut. Good 190 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: offensive line runner that's running well, or runners that are 191 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: running well, physical receivers. That's that's kind of what they do. 192 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 5: In the preseason. But obviously Jackson's now the starter. What's 193 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 5: the dynamic like between the quarterbacks in your mind, Like, 194 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 5: how do you view Russ and James's role at this point? 195 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: If you're the role their backup quarterbacks that have had 196 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: a lot of experience that provide a lot of value 197 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: when you're in the meeting room. They stay late with Jackson, 198 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: watch tape together. All three of them give good input. 199 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: I think they're a good resource for a young quarterback. 200 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: I think any time you can have veteran quarterbacks, you know, 201 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: I just go back to Derek Anderson, a guy that 202 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: I had at Buffalo when he came on with us. 203 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 1: The value that he provided for Josh, the vision that 204 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: he sees. You know, quarterbacks a hard position to play, 205 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: and when you have a guy that's been in the room, 206 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: that's that's played, that has a variety of experiences, I 207 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: think that's helpful for a young player, particularly in that room, 208 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: probably more so than any other room. Not that it's 209 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: not important in other rooms, but it's very important in 210 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: that room. Again, those guys are are very good teammates, 211 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: but they're you know, it's good to have their eyes 212 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: in there. With Jackson, it's very interactive in the quarterback 213 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: meeting room. All three of them have good ideas, but 214 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: it's good to be able to listen to the guys 215 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: that have played. Again, have been around a number of 216 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have a lot of veteran experience that offer 217 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: a lot of valuable insight, you know, very productive ones, 218 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 1: and these guys are two of them that I think 219 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: you provide that for for the room and for the team.
