1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 1: So guys all right injury report, Uh you Tour knee

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 1: will not practice, Jordan Watkins ankle will not practice, Juwan

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: calf limited, Pooney knee limited, Jordan James finger limited.

4
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 2: Go ahead, I'll have the team voted on the captains yet.

5
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: Yes, same as last year with Fred George Brock, Trent,

6
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: Christian Nick and Juice Demo replaced Debo.

7
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 2: That's eight.

8
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 3: Are you expecting Juan to play on Sunday? Yes, it's

9
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 3: fine physically with him.

10
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he looked good on Monday. I'm getting back

11
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: into it. Uh, you know, having all that time off,

12
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: you know, we got to ease him in and stuff.

13
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: So we'll see how this s weeek goes. That's why

14
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: he'll be limited today. But he's health healthy enough to

15
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: play football and hopefully that continues. Get a final MRI

16
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,319
Speaker 1: I any kind of like final testing to make sure

17
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: the calf is okay.

18
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he's good to go a shut back.

19
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 4: No, No, it's interested to know how the effect that

20
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 4: it's been since Juan has been bad.

21
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: I mean, Poony led up.

22
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 4: The effect on the team and you guys, and you

23
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 4: guys looked happy to have him back out there on Monday,

24
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 4: Pooney lit up when he was asked about Juan, saying

25
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 4: it was his favorite player on the team. What does

26
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 4: he do for the locker room now that he's actually

27
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 4: in there every day? I mean he's been around, yeah.

28
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: I mean it doesn't feel like he's been gone because

29
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: he's been around every day. So we got to spend

30
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: time with him and all that. Having him back on

31
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: the practice field Monday was awesome. I mean, we love

32
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: jj When he's not there, he's greatly missed, and the

33
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: way he carries himself, the energy he plays with and

34
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: how good of a player he is makes everyone very excited.

35
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 5: Obviously, there's been a plenty of talking about his contract

36
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 5: situation everything. Can you say if there's any sort of

37
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 5: resolution as far as the business.

38
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: Side of things, No, I don't think there's a totally resolution.

39
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: It's it's the business side, you know. I think I

40
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: said at the beginning training camp, how badly myself and

41
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: everyone in this building once Juwan back in the long term,

42
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: we want call Mkivtz back. Are two guys that we

43
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: really help hope to keep here. But they're both going

44
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: into their contract year and nothing's ever final. But we'll

45
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: see how it plays out, But there's a business side

46
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: to both sides. But it's something that I think both

47
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: sides would love to get worked out. Just don't if

48
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: you can.

49
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: What why was that move made as far as the

50
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 3: active roster and the practice squad of switching val his

51
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: scanling engage and would you expect both of them to

52
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: be active on Sunday.

53
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: I think they both have a shot to be a

54
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: real good shot. So I mean there's a lot of

55
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: layers to that move. It's not as simple as just

56
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: one thing. A lot of things for now, a lot

57
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: of things for the future. But my biggest thing was

58
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: making sure that both of them are still on our team.

59
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: And they both are, and they both have as good

60
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: of a chance to be out playing here on Sunday,

61
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: and Marks get into the chemistry with Rock Berdy and

62
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: fit into your scheme. I mean, it was nice to

63
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: have him out of practice Monday. I mean it was

64
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: nice that, you know, him playing for Clint Kubiak in

65
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: New Orleans last year for half the year and then

66
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: being in Seattle this whole offseason. There's a lot of

67
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: carry over and stuff which just plays and the terminology

68
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: and h he's a he's a vet who's been around

69
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff, so he seems like he's gonna

70
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: pick it up fast. He has in the practices and

71
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: got the game plan today, so I don't want to

72
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: put too much on them, but we need him to

73
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: learn it as he goes and be ready to help

74
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: us on Sunday if you can.

75
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 6: What do you expect to see from that Seahawks offense

76
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 6: given your from like Arid with Koubyak and Darnold.

77
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's some very similar similarities. I mean,

78
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: it's always different how you adjust your players, but I

79
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: know they're gonna be a balanced team that also puts

80
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: Sam in some good situations and give the ball to

81
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: their good running backs and then it usually comes down

82
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 1: to their down.

83
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 2: So it's really similar to us.

84
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: I mean there's window dressing that's different, but the way

85
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: that they want a game to go, I think it's

86
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: gonna be very similar how we wanted to go.

87
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 3: I know you don't watch that offensive film, maybe, but

88
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 3: they didn't run it well last.

89
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 5: Year Seattle, but they've run it really well this summer.

90
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 5: Have you peeked at their run game?

91
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 3: Is there anything noticeable?

92
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: He has a different style run game I mean it's

93
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: very similar to ours and the stuff that they do.

94
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: I mean just being with Clinn and being with John

95
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: Bennon for a long time. It is one of the

96
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: best line coaches there is. You know, they all and

97
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: I worked with those guys back in Houston. John was

98
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: here for a number of times. Clint was here last

99
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: two years ago, So there's lots of similarities in what

100
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: they do. And they ran well in the preseason, and

101
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: we'll see how it is.

102
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: Week one opened the.

103
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 6: Season in two loud buildings in Seattle. In New Orleans

104
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 6: is dead problematic early in the season before maybe everything

105
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 6: is totally chilled.

106
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: It can be.

107
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: I mean, that's so I were really working on it hard,

108
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: started doing that last week. We're gonna do it all

109
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: this week. Usually that's enough, but there are there are

110
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: a number of new guys who are just hopping in

111
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: and stuff, so they got to get used to the

112
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: cadences and all the differences with emotions and things like that.

113
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's always a challenge. But we challenged him

114
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: throughout the week and hopefully by Sunday and feels second

115
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: nature to us.

116
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 3: Well. Obviously, Mi Calvis a little time with the Nie

117
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 3: how did you see him come along from when he

118
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 3: got here? So it's where he is now and what's

119
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 3: kind of his state of readiness for what I wouldsume

120
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 3: is a big role.

121
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: Well, he looked good in the last few practices, been

122
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: a part of and it'll get more and more each

123
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: day this week. I think it's always hard when you

124
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: miss a lot of camp. You know, you got hurt,

125
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: you know, before the first Inverse preseason game, and you

126
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 1: know it didn't come back till after the last preseason game,

127
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: so it's always tough to catch that up.

128
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: But health wise he's doing good.

129
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: He's hopping again all the reps and he's gonna just

130
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: keep getting better than more reps he gets. What would

131
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: you say that the youth on defense presents your biggest

132
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: challenge this season?

133
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: I think it's possible. I mean there's a number of challenges,

134
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 2: depends how they go.

135
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we also have some bets stepping up, you know,

136
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: so they might not all have to go right away,

137
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: but we're going to play a lot of young guys

138
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: as this year goes, and we're gonna start out doing that.

139
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: Getting a lot of those guys back has been nice,

140
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: but those guys missing a lot of camp too has

141
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: been a struggle, you know, starting with mikel and looking

142
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: at guys like Stout and things like that.

143
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 2: I'm getting c J.

144
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: West back here last week too, so hopefully we had

145
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: a good week of practice, get them back in the

146
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: thicket things and they have a good first game.

147
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 3: From coming back injury and health.

148
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 2: Of Collins from college, I mean.

149
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 6: Just from being injured, missing.

150
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 2: Ota is missing the offseason.

151
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: You never know, especially with such a big guy, when

152
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: they can't go through all the conditioning and of the

153
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: stuff we're doing. It's usually a worry because you're reh

154
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: having the calf so much and all the stuff that

155
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: he had. But when he came back, it took him

156
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of time to get his legs under him.

157
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: That was a cool thing to watch. I was always

158
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: nervous he was going to get hurt and then missed

159
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: the next two weeks or something like that.

160
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 2: But he fought through it, was able to stay.

161
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: Healthy, kept grinding every day and he eventually got his conditioning,

162
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: got his legs back, and thought he had a real

163
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: good camp and give him a chance that real good

164
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: year with dad.

165
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 5: Any for excitement to open against.

166
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: The division, right I guess a little.

167
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: I mean, usually when it's all said and done, the

168
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: division games count more. But it's I mean, to me,

169
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: the IM's always there for the first game.

170
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 2: Anyways. You just got to think.

171
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: About it all week and you just wait till the

172
00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 1: first kickoff, and then you kind of feel normal.

173
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 2: That happens.

174
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,679
Speaker 1: There's always unknowns with both teams, whether it's a division

175
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: opponent or not. You always feel that way until the

176
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: ball's kicked, and then you feel pretty normal again.

177
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 4: You guys are pretty clear.

178
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 3: When you got Brian Robinson, he was going to be

179
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 3: the backup and running back, and I think John even

180
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 3: said that you were kind of hoping James was, and

181
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 3: the finger kind of slowed him down. I mean, Grendo's

182
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 3: got lost a little bit here.

183
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 2: What's gone on with him this summer. I don't think

184
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: that he's gotten lost.

185
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: I just think he's competing, and you know, I think

186
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: last year, you know, I think he was the third

187
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: third back last year and then a couple of guys

188
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: got hurt and they got an opportunity, and I thought

189
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: he did well in his opportunity, but that didn't that

190
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: didn't mean he was the first or second back all

191
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know, he had to come into

192
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: camp and still compete with guys, and he got hurt

193
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: really early and missed a lot of time to compete,

194
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: and we brought Brian in. We've studied him over his

195
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: career and based off of that, we put him ahead

196
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: of him. And that's how we are starting out and

197
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: we'll see how it goes throughout the year.

198
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 2: What makes Mike McDonald a good defensive play calling?

199
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: I mean play Collins play calling to degree. To me,

200
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: it's just how he runs his whole scheme. I mean

201
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: they got a thread of everything. I mean it's a

202
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: sound defense and how it starts out real hard to

203
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: get big plays on. When you say sound and hard

204
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: to get plays on, that usually sounds real conservative, which

205
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: it is in those areas. But they also know how

206
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: to put pressure on you. He does a good job

207
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: calling his blitzes. He times him outright and does good

208
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: ones to stop the run, good ones to stop the pass,

209
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: and the rollodecks of coverages.

210
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: So it's always hard to get a beat.

211
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 3: What's the impact of Gus Bradley so far.

212
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 5: He's obviously a former NFL head coach. What does he

213
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 5: added to your staff.

214
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: Gus has been a stud never got a chance to

215
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: work with him until this year, and I mean he's

216
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: probably like the most upbeat guy in her staff.

217
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 2: I love having him around. He's a great guy to

218
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: hang out with.

219
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: Sala A ton you know sala I would say was

220
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 1: I would say Gus mentored sala early in his career,

221
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: especially at Jacksonville and stuff. And then they've been separate

222
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: for a while, so now for them to get back

223
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: together after they started together and they see it a

224
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: lot different, but they're always from the same foundation. And

225
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 1: to have someone like that to bounce ide is off

226
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: of and where he went to and where Saula has

227
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: gone to, I think is really cool for Saulid to

228
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: have and just for our building to have. Like Gus

229
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: is talking to everybody. It's not just the defense you

230
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: see random people in his room all the time. He's

231
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: he cares a lot about people. He's really easy guy

232
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: to talk to, and he kind of has that relationship

233
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: with really everybody on the in our building.

234
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: And he's done it real fast.

235
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 6: Have you guys decided on your starting safeties? Speaking of safety,

236
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 6: as Jay Brown has kind of had it up and

237
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 6: down first and second year.

238
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 3: Where do you feel like he's at it?

239
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: He's just I think he's you know, he got his

240
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: opportunity when Huff got hurt and he came in and

241
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: I want to say it was seven games his rookie

242
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 1: year after Huff got hurt, and I thought had a

243
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: hell of a year. I thought he battled a lot

244
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: of stuff last year with injuries, and he battled a

245
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: lot of stuff in this offseason too, and then had

246
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 1: to set back in training camp where he missed some time.

247
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: But the more huffs out, I mean, sorry, the more

248
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: Tig is out there gay year, the better he gets,

249
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: the more consistent he gets.

250
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 2: But it's just been up and down with injuries.

251
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 3: When your last three in Seattle, I know different regimes,

252
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 3: you've had some different players too, but is there commonalities.

253
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: That's a very tough.

254
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 3: Place to play.

255
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 4: Obviously in those three wins, what you did right to.

256
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: Get those wins, I really don't even think about that totally.

257
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,959
Speaker 1: I mean I didn't know that till you just said that.

258
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I know, to win in Seattle, with how

259
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: loud it is and stuff, you have to be on

260
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: the cadence and on the noise and all that stuff.

261
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the first way to lose the game

262
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: when you go up there. I've done that plenty of times,

263
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: not just here, but other places when I've gone there

264
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: in my career. So historically it's been one of the

265
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: toughest places to play, just noise wise, and if you

266
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: don't have that handled sometimes it doesn't even matter what

267
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: happens in the game.

268
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 3: With these styles that the safeties play on Pinnock and

269
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 3: Girere and Marquise, Is there a big advantage in your

270
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 3: mind not allowing the Seattle to know quite yet who

271
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 3: those two starters are going to be.

272
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 1: No, I don't think a huge advantage, so it'd be.

273
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 2: A little advantage. I don't want to give any advantage.

274
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 6: So this offseason where he realized that McCaffrey was all

275
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 6: the way back, and what does he mean for other

276
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 6: guy's confidence, other guys on all the team As far

277
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 6: as him being all the way back.

278
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: I mean just having a player like him, I mean,

279
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: to be the offensive MVP one year and then it

280
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: really missed the whole next year.

281
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it was really tough on him and tough

282
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 2: on us.

283
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: And I knew Christian was back just once he told

284
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: me he was healthy. I mean, it's not like we

285
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: were thinking he wanted to come back from it.

286
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 2: You know, you hope that.

287
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: Stuff arthritis and everything goes away, which he usually does.

288
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: And I mean he was telling us that early in

289
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: off season, so I felt pretty good about it. And

290
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: Christian's not a liar, so I didn't think he was.

291
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: Then we saw him early in OTAs, he looked like

292
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: the guy we've always known, and he's continued that.

293
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 5: How important is it for Christian McCaffrey as confidence to

294
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 5: get the ball early in Seattle?

295
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: I don't think it changes his confidence at all. I

296
00:11:54,920 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: think might change his irritation level, But I mean Christian's

297
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: Christian's ready whenever that ball touches them, So he would

298
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: prefer every play hopefully it comes earlier than later, and

299
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: usually does a running back.

300
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 3: So beyond Ricky and Juwan, it seems like it's wide open,

301
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 3: like who the other receivers could be? How much is

302
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 3: this plan kind of fluid as far as how these

303
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 3: guys execute the plays out here as you put in

304
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 3: the game plan?

305
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 2: Very fluid. I mean it's guys that we got to

306
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 2: hunch about.

307
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 1: I mean there's guys like that have been here for

308
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: a bit like that's especially like Gage and Stuff. He's

309
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: been around here since last year and had a real

310
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: good offseason, but finished those last two weeks hurt, which

311
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: made some uncertainty about him. But I got a much

312
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: better idea there just getting an MBS here. Guys like

313
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: Robbie and Stuff who joined later in the deal, Malik Turner.

314
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 1: All these guys have an opportunity to help us. We're

315
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: gonna most likely get five up for the game. Sky

316
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: Moore is another new one. All these guys have been

317
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: here really the last week and they're all been working,

318
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: but they definitely need three more days of practice to

319
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: see which ones we want to put in.

320
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 3: Which role in training camp, Christian was not going to

321
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 3: change as a dad that you thought he'd still be

322
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 3: a psycho.

323
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: Is he still a psycho?

324
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's his DNA so his dad is too

325
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 1: in an awesome way.

326
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: Last one, Bret, it was noted.

327
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 5: I guess Monday, Juan gave you and John Lynch hugs

328
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 5: or whatever. Well that's great, but obviously we don't know.

329
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 5: But I mean, whatever was going on throughout training camp,

330
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 5: I mean it's a relationship. Do you feel like emerge

331
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 5: intact and okay, as you begin.

332
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have no issues with Juan and relationship. They

333
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: didn't report on the Hugs Saturday and Monday Tuesday. Now,

334
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: Jawn's all love and no, it was never personal. It's

335
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: business and that's that's a tough thing about this. I

336
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: want every player to make as much money as possible.

337
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: I want every coach. I want everybody to It's just

338
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: hard and situations.

339
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 2: To always do that.

340
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: But that's something as a coach, always pulling for. But

341
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: also I do understand the business too. Sometimes it's hard

342
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: when other people don't. So you've got to communicate with

343
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: people and stuff like that so it doesn't become personal.

344
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: But the relationship I've always had with Juwan, uh never

345
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 1: really were worried about that.

346
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 2: All right, Thanks guys,
