1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: Well, you know, disappointing finisher. Um, you know, a competitive 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: game thanks to work with, but not anyone just not enough. So, um, 3 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: disappointing result. Bill. We saw in the second half the 4 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: sort of impact that Kendrick Boorn can have when he's 5 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: made the focal point of the passing game. Why have 6 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: the opportunities for him to be such a regular target 7 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 1: in the offense been so few and far between this year? Yeah, 8 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: no particular reasons. Hey, Bill, I'm just sort of curious 9 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: what your impressions were of Joe Burrow first time you 10 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: faced him, first time he's faced you. Um, was it 11 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: any different from what you've seen on film? Oh? No, 12 00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: about the same on the Bengals one of their drives earlier, 13 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: third and seventeen far from your sideline. Was there? How 14 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: much consideration did you give to possibly challenging whether he 15 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: came down and controlled the ball there? Didn't see anything 16 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: that We'll give us a chance to do that. And 17 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: at the end of the first half. At the end 18 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: of the first half, can you explain just sort of 19 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: the sequence there where you had the quick pass and 20 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: then took a time out and then kneeled. What was 21 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: behind that thought process? Let's see what happened at the 22 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,279 Speaker 1: end of the saw much gained on that play and 23 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: in the end didn't feel like it was really as 24 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: much we could do there. Hey, Bill, you made adjustments 25 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: in his second half? Defense played great. Um, what was 26 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: a big change there were in the second half, you know, 27 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: after giving up twenty two points. Yeah, no big change, 28 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: same calls, Hi, belt Um. What have you seen from 29 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: Marcus Jones and how he's progressed this season? Yeah, he's 30 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: talked about him a lot. He's done a good job 31 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: for us, a little bit more each week and some 32 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: play defense. Over right, Bill, you've repeatedly taken responsibility for 33 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: the offense this season. When you don't cross midfield till 34 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: the end of the third quarter, you get twelve points 35 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: here today. How much of that is your responsibility? Your 36 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: players were well positioned enough to win today. On the 37 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: head coach, Bill, you said it was the same cause 38 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: in the second half. Obviously, Joe Burrow had a great 39 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: first half. He threw for two hundred and eighty four 40 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns. So was the second half you 41 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: guys slowing him down or was that the Bengals stopping themselves? 42 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: I don't know. Call it whatever you want. I want 43 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: to know what you call it. I'm gonna shout about 44 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: in the second half, they'll play a good defense. Call 45 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: it whatever you want, But what can you do? How 46 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: do you make sure that the players stay together these 47 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: final two weeks of the season. Here we've been doing 48 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 1: coach four straight runs there? Um was you guys got 49 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: in the red zone on the offensis final drive? Was 50 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: running clock also a consideration there or just simply trying 51 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: to score? Yeah, we'll trying to score and trying to 52 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: control the clock. Yeah, they used their time out, so 53 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, we're control of the clock and in the 54 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: field position. You know, on the last it was the 55 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: first down play. What was the Bengals defense able to 56 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: do to slow down your group for three quarters? You 57 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: couldn't convert it third down the first half, so that 58 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: was the biggest problem. Yeah, all right,
