00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Welcome into the Lounge Podcast. It is Tuesday, December third.

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 1: The Ravens are in the midst of their bye week

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: and the coaching staff is taking a look at everything

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: right now and finding ways for this team to improve

5
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: for the final stretch of the season. Today, we had

6
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 1: a chance to hear from the coordinators of some of

7
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 1: the assistant coaches, So let's kick it off with offensive

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: coordinator Todd Munkett.

9
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 2: When you look at Lamar in your kind of times

10
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 2: with him, has there been anything this year that has

11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 2: kind of impressed you with what he has kind of

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 2: grown or really improved upon.

13
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 3: Oh, there's a lot of things he's improved upon. He

14
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 3: was already a great player, you know, And I think

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 3: some of that just comes through experience and playing and

16
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 3: the same system, same terminology, a lot of the same players,

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 3: a lot of the same guys he's throwing to, same center,

18
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 3: you know, a lot of things from a communications standpoint.

19
00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 3: But I think he's always been able to see the

20
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 3: field great. I think he's doing a better job of

21
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 3: working through his progressions. He's he does a great job

22
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 3: of seeing receivers down the field when he gets outside

23
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 3: the pockets. So I just think he's doing a great job.

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 3: I don't know where before I got here where he was.

25
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 3: I know he was a great player. I don't I

26
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: don't mean to say that. It just I just see

27
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 3: a lot of things. He protects the football. He doesn't

28
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 3: want to put us at risk. He wants to win

29
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 3: in the worst way. So, you know, like I said,

30
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 3: I don't know exactly where where it started, but he's

31
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 3: an elite player.

32
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 4: Cions the progressions, you know, how do you weigh you know,

33
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 4: going through those progressions and the balance of whether he

34
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 4: runs continues to go through those progressions, like he talked

35
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 4: about that obviously Sunday A little Well.

36
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: That's that's hard because he's such a weapon, you know,

37
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 3: when he's got the ball in his hands and when

38
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: he gets outside the pocket and finding guys down the field,

39
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: and you know, so he's got such a great.

40
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 5: Feel for the rush. It's unique.

41
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: It's rare, you know, to see defenders and escape and

42
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 3: make those plays. Gets us out of a lot of

43
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: you know, tough plays, you know, tough situations. So that balance,

44
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 3: I don't know where to start and where to finish

45
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 3: with it, because it's yeah, there's times I think maybe

46
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 3: he could check it down, but then he gets outside

47
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 3: of it and he makes a play. So it's just's unique,

48
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: you know, in terms of his ability to to do that.

49
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 6: Did you know he was one.

50
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 7: Main thing the fact that he didn't run more, as

51
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 7: Mom said that he should have run.

52
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: I don't know where that comes from. I did not

53
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 3: see that in the game. But mom knows best, you know,

54
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 3: so I mean, I guess that's I did not see

55
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 3: that in the game, that he should have taken off

56
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 3: more and that there were those opportunities. I did not

57
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 3: see that. But I'm not criticizing Mom. I mean, she

58
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 3: says he should have run more than he should have

59
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 3: run more, but I didn't see that. I don't want

60
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 3: to be critical in that matter. I thought he did

61
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 3: an outstanding job the other night, Todd.

62
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 8: Obviously, the Eagles have a heck of a defensive line.

63
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 9: But when when you're.

64
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 8: Having some struggles blocking any team's interior, as a play caller,

65
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 8: how do you really try to account for that? I mean,

66
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 8: edge players, you chip guys, you can, you know you

67
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 8: have a blocking tight end, but when it's that inside,

68
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 8: you know, inside problems like that, how do you account.

69
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: For that.

70
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 5: Well?

71
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 3: From a protection standpoint, there's things you can do, there's

72
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 3: ways you can slide the protection. Being able to run

73
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 3: the ball helps at. Staying out of the chains helps at.

74
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean that that doesn't occur even on play

75
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: actions and other things. But and you're not expecting it. Again,

76
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: guys are gonna get beat, Guys are gonna get covered,

77
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 3: Guys are gonna drop a pass, We're gonna make a

78
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 3: poor throw and we haven't you know, hasn't shown up

79
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 3: to where it's been multiple you know, issues.

80
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 5: With it, so we don't ever expect that.

81
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: But they're really good upfront, and we got to do

82
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: a better job myself coaching, protecting, being able to run

83
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 3: the ball, move the pocket, be able to screen some

84
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 3: take the pressure of those guys as part of it.

85
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 6: Time.

86
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 4: You heard Zach on the defensive side talk about, you know,

87
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 4: early on he felt like he was maybe trying to

88
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 4: disguise too much or do too much.

89
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 9: Just curious.

90
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 4: On the offensive side, are there is that you know,

91
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 4: you've so many weapons and the offense is obviously played

92
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 4: really well in the most parts, but is there a

93
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 4: challenge of or what is the challenge of when you

94
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 4: have all of that at your disposal and maybe trying

95
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 4: to do too much or trying to find that tw

96
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 4: we'd spot against.

97
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 5: It's a great question. Doesn't bother me at all.

98
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 3: I mean, as much as I'd love for every skilled players,

99
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 3: I've said this before, I'd love for all of them

100
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 3: to be a huge part of when we when we

101
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 3: move the ball and we score, but I don't always

102
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 3: control that. Some of that I do, and some of

103
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 3: that I don't. The defense controls it where Lamar ends

104
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 3: up with it or we don't get a protection, you know,

105
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, we're paid to

106
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 3: score or not. I can't always control who touches it,

107
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 3: and so we don't ever try to do too much.

108
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 3: I don't believe. I don't think we're trying to do

109
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 3: too many things, do I think, you know, we're all

110
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 3: cognizant of using our weapons and having those guys be

111
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 3: a part of it. But you know, we didn't get

112
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 3: Bigsa the ball, you know, early in the game, but

113
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 3: we tried to. You know, we had a banana route

114
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 3: that we didn't end up hitting for a couple of reasons.

115
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 3: And you know, across again, it just it just shows up.

116
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 3: It's not not a problem for me. I'm glad we

117
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 3: have all those guys. It's a good problem to have.

118
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: When you don't have those guys, you're pissed. You know

119
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 3: that that's tougher than having a lot of weapons.

120
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 10: You've talked about the best protection in the philadelph game

121
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 10: in particular. Bit when you look at the offensive line

122
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 10: overall and kind of take stock, is it, is it

123
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 10: where you wanted to be at this point of the season.

124
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 5: Sure, I mean, and it's.

125
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 6: Overall.

126
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 3: Offensively, we forget the offensive We did not play as

127
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 3: well as we're capable of, so irrespective of that, we

128
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 3: could certainly coach better and play better.

129
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 5: That's that's what we have to do.

130
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 3: You know, in the games that we we've lost the

131
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 3: last couple of weeks. A few weeks ago, it was

132
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: turnovers and penalties. This week it was touchdowns in the

133
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 3: red zone. The penalties you know, we didn't have this week.

134
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: We really hadn't been turning it over and we've been

135
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 3: really good in the red zone. We just didn't take

136
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 3: advantage of the opportunities we had. That's us offensively scoring touchdowns.

137
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 3: So those are the ways you win, you know, the

138
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 3: ways you win is don't turn it over, be explosive,

139
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 3: don't have lost sharage plays, you know, touchdowns in the

140
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: red zone, third down conversions, off schedule plays, bear quarterback.

141
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 3: All of those are the reasons you win and you

142
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 3: score and you move the football. And in those two games,

143
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 3: weren't we weren't as efficient as we had been.

144
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 8: Considering how many questions there were about the one coming

145
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 8: into the season.

146
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 11: I guess, how have they compared to what you thought

147
00:06:59,000 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 11: they might be.

148
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 5: Or what the price will?

149
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 12: Oh?

150
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 5: I think they played great, you know.

151
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, everybody has their moments or they

152
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 3: don't play as well as they'd like to. There's calls

153
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 3: i'd like back, you know, every game may you can

154
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 3: only imagine. And if you have sixty play calls in

155
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 3: a game and twenty of them go for nothing or

156
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 3: lost yard, It's like, well, it's a third of my calls.

157
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, I wasn't worth the damn, you know.

158
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 3: I mean, So that goes with players. They're gonna make mistakes,

159
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: they're gonna lose, They're not who's going to win, and

160
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 3: we got to help them out at every position.

161
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 5: You know, sometimes receivers need help getting off the line

162
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 5: of scrimmage. You need a motion.

163
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 3: Sometimes you're alignment against certain matchups, need us to help

164
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 3: them in pass pro. You know that that's just the

165
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 3: way it is that every team goes through that. We're

166
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: not the only team that deals with certain matchup issues.

167
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 5: It's the NFL.

168
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 3: There's great players on the other side, and so we

169
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 3: just got to do a better gut job coaching them,

170
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 3: preparing them, and uh and then playing on Sunday.

171
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 13: Got get the first episode of Hard Knocks tonight. I

172
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 13: know you've been that all access thing at Oklahoma State.

173
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 13: In your position as off a supporting I mean, you

174
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 13: can have the time of day to kind of wonder

175
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 13: what makes the final cut or is it just completely.

176
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 14: Help your radar.

177
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 3: I even forgot about it till you brought it up,

178
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 3: So that sucks you brought that up. I think it's

179
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 3: a major distraction. So I don't deal with it. So

180
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 3: I know it's not that what they want to hear.

181
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 3: But it's hard enough to focus and get ready and

182
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 3: then worry about I just have to worry about this

183
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: once a week, you know, I don't want to worry

184
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 3: about it every day of what I say, how I

185
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 3: say it, how it's perceived. Whatever it is, it's it's

186
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 3: hard enough to win in the NFL than to stay focused.

187
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 3: And what we got to do this week is a

188
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 3: coaching staff, let our guys get rest, get ready to

189
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 3: go for this four game stretch, analyze who we are,

190
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 3: where we want to continue to go, how we've got

191
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 3: to continue to get better, who we're going to be

192
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: playing to give us the best chance to win every week.

193
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 6: Tn't that one of all?

194
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 15: Good? Hut?

195
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 10: I mean kind of, I guess, kind of along similar lines.

196
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 10: This is the time of year when people start to

197
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 10: speculate about the job openings and the tussing names around

198
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 10: all the rumor columns. I mean, your name is in

199
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 10: some of those. How do you deal with that?

200
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 3: No, I don't deal with it. I don't deal with

201
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 3: it because it's got nothing to do with the here

202
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 3: and the now, and nobody really knows anyways.

203
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 9: Now.

204
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 3: I don't control that. All I control is the job

205
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 3: I have here. That's the most important thing, is us

206
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 3: winning here and scoring points. Because you don't worry about that,

207
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 3: then you don't have the job here, and then the

208
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 3: other stuff doesn't happen. So the idea is, right, now,

209
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 3: are players, how we get better this week and again

210
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 3: playing winning football. That's what we're paid to do here.

211
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 3: The rest of it takes care of itself. I mean,

212
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 3: that's just the way it is. And I again, I

213
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 3: don't control what's being said one side of the other.

214
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: I've been on both sides of it. You know, when

215
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 3: you're not very good, or you're good, or you're not whatever,

216
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 3: And I don't. I really don't pay attention to it,

217
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 3: to be real honest.

218
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 4: Just going back to some lamar and just what have

219
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 4: you seen in a leadership since or hidden from you know?

220
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 4: A step forward? Even from last year to this year.

221
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 4: It seems like he's been more vocal. Maybe he's full

222
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 4: of last year, but maybe taking another step forward if

223
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 4: you've seen that.

224
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 5: And if so, in some ways, I think the more.

225
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 3: Success you have, which he's had success, but he's also

226
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 3: been healthy, the same players you're around every day, it

227
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 3: becomes easier to to say things to guys, same system,

228
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 3: you know. I just think he's more comfortable being able

229
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: to say things to the players. He's done a great

230
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 3: job with him in terms of promoting that, you know,

231
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 3: which is part of that, like it's okay, you know,

232
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 3: the players love to play with Lamar because he's highly

233
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 3: competitive and he's such a good dude. He's such a

234
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 3: good person.

235
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 5: They love him. It's hard not to love Lamar Jackson.

236
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 3: But with that, when you become the quarterback, is okay,

237
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 3: how do you want it to look? You're an extension

238
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 3: of us. I mean, you're the closest thing tied to

239
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 3: winning that we are. The quarterback is I mean, that's

240
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 3: a fact. I mean, no one critiques a skilled player

241
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 3: for not winning the Super Bowl. I've ever one person

242
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 3: critique one of our players for not winning Super Bowl. Well,

243
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 3: they're all over his ass. You know, that's just the

244
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 3: way it comes with So he's an extension of us.

245
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 3: So okay, how do you evolve to you know, hey, okay,

246
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 3: you're an extension of us. You're an extension of our team.

247
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 3: How do you want it to look? And that's not easy.

248
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 3: It's not easy for us, not easy for him to

249
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 3: be that. But winning is important to him. Being a

250
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 3: great teammates important to him, Being coachable is important to him.

251
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 3: All the things that you want in a quarterback. And

252
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 3: he's just starting to grow and he's bringing that out

253
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 3: in him, you know, to be able to do that again,

254
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 3: that's not easy for any player to do that with

255
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 3: their teammates.

256
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,719
Speaker 13: How you developed in the film room.

257
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 11: I know some of the guys said, he's pointing out

258
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 11: more things than not, just.

259
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 5: Like all of you guys are meetings.

260
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 3: The outside the facility as well.

261
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 5: No, I think and T can speak to that. You know,

262
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 5: it's I just think he's dialed in. I really do.

263
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 3: I think he's always been dialed in. But you know,

264
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 3: in terms of what he's seeing, you know, and what

265
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 3: he likes, what he dislikes. I just think he's from

266
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,719
Speaker 3: what I've seen, and again he can speak to that

267
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 3: is I think they've got a great rapport and I

268
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 3: think they've got a way of communicating, Hey, what they're seeing,

269
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 3: why we're doing what we're doing. It gives us the

270
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 3: best chance to win. That's really It doesn't matter what

271
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 3: I see. It's always through the eyes of the quarterback.

272
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 3: Always does not matter. That's how this works. You know,

273
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 3: everything's got to be through the eyes of your players,

274
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 3: especially the quarterback, how he sees it, how he sees

275
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 3: the game, and that's our job to make sure that

276
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 3: we do the best job we can possible to fit

277
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 3: around his skill set and that he sees it.

278
00:12:55,480 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 5: The way we see it.

279
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: Up is quarterbacks coach t Martin.

280
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 6: The second year system.

281
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 7: Just where have you seen mars developments with Todd Monkeys?

282
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 14: Where is he I improved?

283
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 6: Right? Development wise? Physically? I think as a passer, you know,

284
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 6: he's taken leaps and bounds from where we started off

285
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 6: season last year, spring training camp last season and then

286
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 6: picking up where we left off. He made some goals

287
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 6: to be quicker, you know, on his feet. We saw

288
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 6: how he looks now when he reported the training camp

289
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 6: and past technique wise, being more accurate at all of

290
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 6: the throws and all field zones. We made a key

291
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 6: point to work on throws outside the numbers, in the

292
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 6: deeper field zones, outside the numbers, post route go routes,

293
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 6: things of that nature. On the run, scrambled throws. Those

294
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 6: are things that we intentionally wanted to come into the

295
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 6: season to be improved at and better at. So as

296
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 6: you look at his numbers, you look at statistically where

297
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 6: he's at, he's improved in all of those areas. As

298
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 6: far as the system, he's just another year advanced in

299
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 6: it from protections, from progressions, from knowing what to expect,

300
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 6: so that he can anticipate and get the ball out.

301
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 6: He's not being sacked as much, he's not being flushed

302
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 6: as much. That helps out the whole line and so

303
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 6: on and so forth. But the addition of Derrick Henry

304
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 6: having another complimentary back, another explosive weapon with him and

305
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 6: being able to make it all work together and still

306
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 6: have the type of performance that he's having at quarterback.

307
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 6: You know it's complimentary to him and the work that

308
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 6: he's been putting in. But you know, coaching every day,

309
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 6: listening to him, working with him, you know his mind

310
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 6: is on another level. What he sees, what he thinks about,

311
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 6: what he anticipates, and how he acts on it is

312
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 6: another year advanced and really proud of where he's come

313
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 6: from and where he's at right now, how he's playing.

314
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 4: And the physical improvement talk about with him from a

315
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 4: technical standpoint, is it is it fullwork elements, arm angle

316
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 4: stuff and is your where what's sort of evolved in.

317
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 6: That sense right? Just being consistently accurate all the time

318
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 6: when he does all those things. And what I did

319
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 6: when I first started coaching was I went back and

320
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 6: watched over seven hundred passes throughout his career and what

321
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 6: he naturally did and created an environment around his natural

322
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 6: movements and started coaching from there because he's already talented.

323
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 6: He was Lamar Jackson before I ever met him, you know, Heisman,

324
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 6: first round pick, MVP, all of this stuff, And what

325
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 6: you look at is how do you make those things

326
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 6: better by creating an environment so that he does it

327
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 6: all the time to where he doesn't think about it

328
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 6: when those things happen. And so with that being said,

329
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 6: something that would have caused anxiety early in his career

330
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 6: is now not causing anxiety and it's just like an

331
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 6: everyday play for him. So that's what we try to

332
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 6: create in our individual drills, sometimes within the play scheme,

333
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 6: but allowing him to be who he is, which is

334
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 6: one of the best in the world at doing what

335
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 6: he does.

336
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: You said, his mind's on another level. Just can you

337
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: talk about that aspect of his game and where you've

338
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: seen those strikes?

339
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, last year was a year for me. It's like

340
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 6: when we first started dating somebody, like, I can't believe

341
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 6: what they're saying, you know, is that right? I don't

342
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 6: see it that way, you know, But we're gonna work

343
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 6: it out. We're gonna work it out. And then the

344
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 6: second year you're like, yeah, he really sees that, he

345
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 6: really knows exactly what he's thinking, exactly what he's doing,

346
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 6: and he's acting on it. And so just the second

347
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 6: year of our relationship, second year of him trusting me

348
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 6: and just that relationship, he's more vocal about how he

349
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 6: feels and what he sees and he stands on it.

350
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 6: And so he's very defining to who he is and

351
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 6: what he wants to do. And with his footage now

352
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 6: his footage down as we all know, and uh, but

353
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 6: he's just being more within himself and the things that

354
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 6: we're asking him to do and the feedback. You know,

355
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 6: last year he wasn't so comfortable with saying this is

356
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 6: what I want, you know, this year is like, now

357
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 6: I want it this way, this is how I want

358
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 6: to do it. And so that's just growth and development.

359
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 6: Really proud of that from him.

360
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: I guess along those lines, when you have that clarity

361
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: and of what he wants, how does that affect the

362
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: offense as a whole.

363
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 6: I think what it does for the players that play

364
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 6: with him, what it does for Todd calling the players,

365
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 6: what it does for me having to coach and navigate

366
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 6: all the things. It's just clear. It's clear cut. It's

367
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 6: black and white, it's no gray, and you rather be

368
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 6: that way than greatness. And sometimes when you're going from

369
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 6: a system to a different system, it's all trusted. It's

370
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 6: all I've never done this before. What is he asking

371
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 6: me to do? And now you have it on tape.

372
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 6: You have it on tape against opponents from last season,

373
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 6: off season, against our defense, preseason, so on and so forth.

374
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 6: And so there's a body of work that builds trust,

375
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 6: and you know what does work, and you know what

376
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 6: doesn't work, and so and you combine that with his

377
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 6: career and totality and his experience. He knows what he's

378
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 6: talking about, and we trust him.

379
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 10: He seemed mad and kind of an energized way after

380
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 10: Sunday's game. Having gone through that game with him at

381
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 10: this point, what do you think was kind of at the.

382
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 6: Root of that. I'll tell you what. That last drive.

383
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 6: You know, you're down two scores, and anybody could have

384
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 6: chosen to put the backup in and gott of the game,

385
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 6: or put the starters in and ran the ball and

386
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 6: got out the game. But for him to continue to

387
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 6: play get completions the Scramble says, it all about who

388
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 6: he is and how much he wants to win and

389
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 6: not quit, because anybody could have just got out the pocket,

390
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 6: slid or whatever he was trying to score and get

391
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 6: in the game on side kick, get the ball back,

392
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 6: win the game. He never quit, and so he cared

393
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 6: that energy into the locker room. We spoke after the

394
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 6: game and he spoke to his mom, shout out Miss Felicia.

395
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 6: Got out of him a little bit, but by the

396
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 6: time he got to the podium, it was that energy

397
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 6: that you guys felt, but it never stopped. It was

398
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 6: that way the whole game. He was He was ready

399
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 6: to play that game. He wanted to win it for everybody.

400
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 6: And but it really started, you know during the game,

401
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,239
Speaker 6: late in the game, that last drive, you know, our

402
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 6: conversations on the sideline, and that energy led to he

403
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 6: kind of had the feeling of I hate that we

404
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 6: have about week because I want to play next week,

405
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 6: you know, to get this off my chest type of feeling.

406
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 6: And so he was that way yesterday too. So hopefully,

407
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,959
Speaker 6: you know, get away a little bit for the body,

408
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 6: for the mind and comes back refreshed with that same

409
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 6: energy head into Giants week.

410
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 2: There's gonna be a digprecating around the part of the

411
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: season where you know the narrative will be will will

412
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 2: Mark Jackson leave the Ravens to a super Bowl? It's

413
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,479
Speaker 2: been that way for the past couple of years. How

414
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 2: much do you think that those way on Lamar? And

415
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 2: do you is that a concern of yours and trying

416
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 2: to help him not feed too much win?

417
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I don't think it's a concern because that's

418
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 6: what we're here to do. You know. We see it

419
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 6: as eight games left, you know, and that's the way

420
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,400
Speaker 6: we talk. And so it's not like this, you know,

421
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 6: everyday conversation talking about the super Bowl. As you guys know,

422
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 6: it's about the next practice. It is about the next game.

423
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 6: You can't get there before you win the next one.

424
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 6: And we know what we have to do now to

425
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 6: get to those points. So it's not like a stress

426
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 6: anxiety type thing. I think in his career in total,

427
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 6: is something that he wants to do right now. Yes,

428
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 6: is get to the super Bowl and win the super Bowl.

429
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 6: But we know we have to do weekend and week

430
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 6: out to get to that point. The conversations that we

431
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 6: do have are about what do championship teams do to

432
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 6: win tough games, whether it's in our division Steelers, Browns, Bengals,

433
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,959
Speaker 6: whether it's against a super Bowl caliber team that we

434
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 6: saw Sunday night. How do you win those games? All right?

435
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 6: Taking care of the football execution on first and second down,

436
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 6: scoring touchdowns in the red zone, and learning to win

437
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 6: ugly And sometimes it's boring that quarterback. Sometimes they force

438
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 6: you to check it down because they're afraid they're supposed

439
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 6: to play. Sometimes you lean on the run game. Sometimes

440
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 6: it's a play that happens in the fourth quarter that

441
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 6: changes the game. Who knows, But those are the conversations

442
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 6: that we have in terms of what is the difference

443
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 6: in a talented team that doesn't win championships and talented

444
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 6: teams that do win championships. And those are the things

445
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 6: that we're trying to capture in the conversations that we're

446
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 6: having Sunday.

447
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 4: Waitful, sorry, just going back to Sunday. After the game,

448
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 4: What did Lamar say to the guys.

449
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 6: It was the same energy as you guys saw. He

450
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:52,479
Speaker 6: was just really agitated that we lost the game in

451
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 6: the fashion that we lost the game. And it's always

452
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 6: the frustration of leaving plays out there, you know, when

453
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 6: you something devel or you got pressure, when guys were open,

454
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 6: or the guys were open, you didn't see him. You know,

455
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 6: all of those things happened, and when you look at

456
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 6: the you know, the surface on the sideline, you see

457
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 6: the picture, you're like, oh, you know it. There's a frustration.

458
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 6: But it's only one football. It's only you know, if

459
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 6: you're looking this way, someone's open that way, sometimes you

460
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 6: don't see them, and so uh it's always wait til

461
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 6: the next time. But sometimes you don't have the next time,

462
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 6: and so that's where the frustration lies. And so it's

463
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 6: really just trying to get them back centered, you know,

464
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 6: to like, that's what just happened, what's the reality at all,

465
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 6: and what's our plan moving forward to to be better?

466
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 6: You know in those moments.

467
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 5: Mark w one of vine H Jonas and them one

468
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 5: ing of Ryne.

469
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 16: Okay, right, sure, yeah, we we've always seen this burning

470
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 16: desire from Lamardo Wynn.

471
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 13: I think just always had that.

472
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 16: But have you seen it even ratchet up a little

473
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 16: bit higher from last.

474
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 15: Year to this year?

475
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 6: I think it's about the same. I think what's happening

476
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 6: this year is with the talent we have. It's like expected,

477
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 6: you know. I think last year was new system. It

478
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 6: was playing with different people a different way, and so

479
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 6: I think last year was more about my job and

480
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 6: I'm learning my job. I'm trying to do the best

481
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,959
Speaker 6: I can at my job with all these other moving parts.

482
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 6: I think this year coming in, you got a lot

483
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 6: of the receivers of return, the tight ends return, the

484
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,679
Speaker 6: addition of Derrick Henry, you know, things that opening up

485
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 6: with Kansas City on the road. I think the way

486
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 6: this season started, it started off with a fight, you know,

487
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 6: And I think that that's the only difference I think.

488
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,719
Speaker 6: I think, you know, Obvitually we just talked about his

489
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 6: desire to get to a super Bowl, But I think

490
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 6: this year it's more of walking on the field expecting

491
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 6: us to win, but doing the things that it takes

492
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 6: to win to get to that point.

493
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 13: Ye see, I think Mark is one of the best

494
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 13: in the NFL right now at sitting sacrate and you

495
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 13: just like to start a great job and not letting

496
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 13: pressors get turned in sacks. But I'm is is that

497
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 13: just his experience in pocket? Is that him dropping the

498
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 13: weight to be a little bit more mobile? I mean,

499
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 13: what do you printed together to explain the way that

500
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 13: he's coming into the part.

501
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 6: Well, first, it's DNA. I mean, he's just better than

502
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 6: most people, UH, quite honestly, faster, smarter processes, mentally faster,

503
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 6: better uh with the addition of experience and what people

504
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 6: are doing throughout his career to try to keep him

505
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 6: in the pocket and say you can't beat us from

506
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,159
Speaker 6: the pocket. So then he sets records doing that, and

507
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 6: then everyone says we're gonna pressure you, and then he's

508
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,360
Speaker 6: best quarter regularly versus pressure, so he can't do that.

509
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 6: So long story short, I just think that he's seen

510
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 6: it all to where he has this body of work

511
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 6: at Okay, what is it gonna be this night? How

512
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 6: are you guys gonna choose to do it? Okay, I'm

513
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 6: gonna go to this mode and he can he can

514
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 6: do it all. You know. We talked about r mangles,

515
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:01,479
Speaker 6: we talked about uh elusiveness. There's times where he is

516
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 6: moving to allow raps to develop. There are times where

517
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 6: he's moving to extend and play. There's time where he's

518
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 6: truly scrambling, and there's times I don't think he even

519
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 6: knows that he becomes Lamar Jackson and we are all

520
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 6: surprised with the outcome and so. But or for me,

521
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 6: it's just be yourself, go out and play. Being Lamar

522
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 6: Jackson is enough and so but with all those things

523
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,160
Speaker 6: being said, he's the best in the world at doing

524
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 6: it throughout the history of the game. My job is

525
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 6: to not screw him up and let him go out

526
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 6: there and be the best that he could be doing

527
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 6: it the way that he wants to do it.

528
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: Next, we heard from running backs coach Willie Tiger.

529
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 16: What what do you see it from Derek? I mean,

530
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 16: I know before the season we talked to you, you

531
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 16: were just so impressed with his work, actin and things

532
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 16: like that. As the season is going on, what's kind

533
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 16: of stood out to you about the way he's going

534
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 16: about his business?

535
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 17: I mean, just pretty much it's the same. You know,

536
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 17: you get the same from Derek every single day. You know,

537
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 17: he he wakes up wanting to be great at what

538
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 17: he does. Like I told you guys earlier year, he

539
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 17: hate making mistakes. You know, I don't care what mistake

540
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 17: it is.

541
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 6: He hated.

542
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 17: It can be the smallest thing. He he just he

543
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 17: hated so much. I got a call last I'm not

544
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 17: a call, but a text last night. He said, Coach,

545
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 17: I'm still ticked about this game. You know, It's just

546
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 17: a lot of those things when it don't go right

547
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 17: for him. It it it bothered him, but it it

548
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 17: it also motivated him to come back to work the

549
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 17: next day and try to do everything he can to

550
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 17: make sure it doesn't happen again. And for me, you

551
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 17: love that out of him being a veteran with so

552
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 17: much experience and so much success and still wake up

553
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 17: every day this in this career and still want to

554
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 17: be the best. And and he's set an example for

555
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:49,959
Speaker 17: the younger guys that's in the room as well, and

556
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 17: that's been very beneficial for us.

557
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 6: Coach.

558
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 13: Uh, When when Derek was in Tennessee, you know, his

559
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 13: production in in December and January was typically a lot

560
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,399
Speaker 13: better than it was in September. I mean, is there

561
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 13: anything from what you've seen from him here in Baltimore

562
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 13: that leads to believe that's not just a Tennessee types phenomenon,

563
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 13: but that he could have that same kind of you know,

564
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 13: you know, kind of accumulative approach.

565
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 17: Heated, Yeah, I think if you just look at it,

566
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 17: there hadn't had a lot of cares, a lot of

567
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 17: wear and tear on him this year, you know, So

568
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 17: I think it's set up perfectly for him to finish

569
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 17: the year like he's he's capable of and and and

570
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 17: what we expect out of him. You know, Derek's fresh

571
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 17: right now and it's great. And I think this bye

572
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 17: week is is perfect timing for us. And again he's homeer.

573
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 17: He wanted to get back, he's he wished we were

574
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 17: playing this week, you know. But I think the way

575
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 17: he trains himself, the way he practiced, the way he prepares,

576
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 17: He's gonna be ready to finish the year like we

577
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 17: need him to.

578
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 10: I was, uh, I was Keaton during is he is?

579
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 10: He kind of chomping at the bit to get more opportunity.

580
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 9: Like where where is he going?

581
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 17: Of course, Keaton is just like any other player on

582
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 17: our team, you know, they want to get out there

583
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 17: and play and help our football team. And Keaton is

584
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 17: into every meeting, studying, asking questions. He's out of practice,

585
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 17: continued to get better.

586
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 6: You know.

587
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 17: He had a tough injury, you know, and and for

588
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 17: him to to work and get back so fast, it's

589
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 17: impressive by hisself, but it also speaks value for him

590
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 17: and just wanting to be back out there with his

591
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 17: teammates and play. And I think with Keaton, he understand

592
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 17: that he got continued to get himself back in the

593
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 17: football shape like he was when he played last year

594
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 17: for us and did some extraordinary things for us. And

595
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 17: I think Keaton, as he continued practicing, come along, we're

596
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 17: starting to get the keyting that we all know.

597
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 4: Speaking of a key. And you know, I think there's

598
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 4: probably a lot of expectation when he came back from

599
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 4: fans that like think Derek and Keaton, like here we go.

600
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 4: Can you articulate the underappreciation maybe of what Justice Hills

601
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 4: broad this season.

602
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 17: Justice is I called Justice the junkyard dog. He does

603
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 17: everything for us, you know, and uh, and he does

604
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 17: it with a smile. He don't he don't complain, he

605
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 17: don't want. I mean every single day that guy come

606
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 17: into office, he is smiling, ready to go. And then

607
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 17: you see it on the football field when we when

608
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 17: we need the first down, Uh call Justine, you know,

609
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 17: Justice to go out and and and get it for us.

610
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 17: I mean, he just he's a workhorse. Uh, He's a

611
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 17: phenomenal pro. He just he studied the game, and again

612
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 17: just want to do his part to help this football

613
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 17: team and he takes pride in that. And again he

614
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 17: understands Derek's the lead back and he understands his role

615
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 17: and he tries best to do his role to the

616
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 17: best of his ability. And I think we all appreciate

617
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 17: what he does for us every single day. And I

618
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 17: think he's he's done a great job, uh integrating just

619
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 17: Derek into our into our organization and and those guys

620
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 17: have hit it off really well and created a ice

621
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 17: bond that's really helped the running back.

622
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 4: Room follow what what have you seen just from a

623
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 4: growth standpoint from him from last year to this year?

624
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 6: Is he faster?

625
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 4: Is he physical?

626
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 6: Does he like?

627
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 17: I think from a physical standpoint, Justice is pretty much

628
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 17: the same as he was last year. I just think

629
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 17: he have better knowledge of what we're doing, a better

630
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 17: understanding of what we're doing. And he's getting more opportunities now,

631
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 17: you know. So I think with anything, with more opportunities,

632
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 17: you get to see more a player can do, and

633
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 17: he's getting them and the beauty of he's taking advantage

634
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 17: of those opportunities that come his way. So I think

635
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 17: just a matter of year or two in the offense

636
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 17: and opportunities that he's getting and he's taken advantage of him.

637
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 18: He was just saying that Lamar sees the game so

638
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 18: differently than any other player.

639
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 11: How would you compare that to how Derek sees the game?

640
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 5: And do they kind of share.

641
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 11: Notes about what they're seeing with the consilias.

642
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 17: And defensive Uh, of course Derek does. He see it

643
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 17: all the time, and he'd come back. He gonna let

644
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 17: you know, whether it's in the game or practice, you're

645
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 17: gonna get I get a text of a picture, a

646
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 17: frame from a game saying coach, I should have hit

647
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 17: this hole, you know, or we should we should do this.

648
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 17: And then there's time where he'll see some things on

649
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 17: the film and whether it's in practice or in the game,

650
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 17: he'll go over to Lamar and those guys will talk

651
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 17: some things out, which is is cool, you know, seeing

652
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 17: those guys, you know, talk football and how they can

653
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 17: help each other out on plays. And I think that's

654
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 17: just again him being the vet and the player that

655
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 17: he is, and the same with Lamar, and those guys

656
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 17: are locked arm and armor and and and want the

657
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 17: same thing, you know, So being able to share things

658
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 17: with each other throughout the game, throughout practices, is really helping.

659
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 2: They get you know, Tom one can Special early on

660
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: the spring talked about Derek being kind of the closer,

661
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 2: you know, especially in the fourth quarter.

662
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 15: How much do you think Derek.

663
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 2: Kind of relishes that role of kind of being the

664
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 2: guy that at the end of the games getting in

665
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 2: wearing down.

666
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 17: The guy and he wants the ball, you know, Derek

667
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 17: wants the ball whenever, whether it's the beginning of the game,

668
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 17: at the end of the game, at halftime, after the game,

669
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 17: he wants the ball, you know. And uh, but whenever

670
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 17: there's a time to again to close out a game

671
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 17: and help his his teammates and help the team win again,

672
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 17: Derrick wants the ball in his hands so he can

673
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 17: do those things, you know. But he again, he whenever

674
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 17: he can get the ball in his hand, he he's

675
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 17: gonna he's gonna take it, you know, and do his

676
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 17: part when it when he gets it.

677
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 7: Really, going back to Keaton, just along with recoveries from

678
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 7: the injury, just do you think that he's a bit

679
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 7: of a it's a victim of circumstance that he's behind

680
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 7: Derrick Henry And then he said a Junkyard dog Get

681
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 7: in Justice Hill that it's just tough for him to

682
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 7: see the the field as much just because that he

683
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 7: has in front of him.

684
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 17: No, I wouldn't necessarily say say that part of it.

685
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 17: I just think it's just again him coming back and

686
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 17: getting himself back to to where we all know Keaton

687
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 17: can play and and play at that level. And and

688
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 17: then again, just like I said with with Justice, when

689
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 17: those opportunities come, being able to take advantage of him,

690
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 17: you know, and I think ask Keaton continue to to

691
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 17: get healthy. Any I think those opportunities are gonna continue

692
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 17: to come, and I know Keaton don't take advantage of

693
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 17: him when they do come. And he's bit, he's biting

694
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 17: at the bit that the photos opportunity and.

695
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 6: The beauty of you.

696
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 17: He comes to work every day, he's training, he's practicing

697
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 17: to get himself back to where.

698
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:16,719
Speaker 14: He needs to be.

699
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 1: X up his offensive line.

700
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 19: Coach George Warhop, all right, boys, boys and girls, what

701
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 19: you got for me today? There can't be much left

702
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 19: after you've gone through everybody else where?

703
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 2: Do you think the line that's really kind of taking

704
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: you know, the strides, uh, you know, from the from

705
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 2: beginning season to at this.

706
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 19: Point, I think they've done a nice job of every

707
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 19: week trying to gain where we need to gain and

708
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 19: staying focused somewhat important. So it's not always perfect, but

709
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 19: they're striving for that, and I think for the most part,

710
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 19: between the schemes we use schematically to help them and

711
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 19: how they go about their business has been pretty good

712
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 19: to this point.

713
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 10: The struggles super interior pressure on Sunday against Philly, Is

714
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 10: that as simple as them just having really good players

715
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 10: or was there more to it.

716
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 19: Them that That's an interesting question because I never viewed

717
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 19: the opponent as the problem. We play a lot of

718
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 19: good defenses. I don't think we handled it as well

719
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 19: as we have U so I always put it on us.

720
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 19: So Philly's got good players, the Chargers has good have

721
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 19: good players, Denver has good players, Pittsburgh has good players.

722
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 19: We just didn't handle it as well this past Sundays.

723
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 19: We have handy with so uh, it's hard for me

724
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 19: to give them credit. And when we handle most of

725
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 19: our s our stuff either good or bad.

726
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 16: All right, how have you seen Daniel fa progress? And

727
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 16: obviously is tackling moving the guards. There is a little

728
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 16: bit of a learning for there. How have you seen

729
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 16: the progressively?

730
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 19: Of course this season, I think Daniel's doing a great job.

731
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 19: I mean, I am excited about him. Every week he

732
00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 19: gets a little bit better. He's a big, physical dou

733
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 19: What's really impressive is his pass row. What's really impressive

734
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 19: to watch him change the direction in short area and

735
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 19: get his hands on guys. That's still work in progress,

736
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 19: his hands, But the way he moves laterally and the

737
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 19: things he can do in pastro I think is pretty impressive.

738
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 19: So I'm excited about him in this future.

739
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 8: You guys mentioned his past protection, but him as a

740
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 8: run blocker. You look at his size and intuitively you

741
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 8: would think he would use his physicality maybe a little

742
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 8: bit more than he does on tape. Is that something

743
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 8: You're still trying to get more and more out of.

744
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 19: Him every week, all of them, It's not just Daniel,

745
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 19: all of them, Right, He's a big man. Sometimes it's

746
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,799
Speaker 19: hard to uncoil your hips when guys are right on

747
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 19: top of you. Right, It's a matter of also adjusting

748
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 19: where you are at the line of scrimmage. We tend

749
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 19: to crowd the ball sometimes, what negates our power at

750
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,840
Speaker 19: the point of attack in the run game, right, So really,

751
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 19: if you want to get technical about it, all your

752
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 19: power is generated on your second and third step, right.

753
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 19: If you're crowding the ball and you don't get your

754
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,240
Speaker 19: second step in the dirt, you're not generating enough power.

755
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 19: So that's part of his issue, is getting his feet

756
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 19: in the dirt to go forward.

757
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 1: So Ronnie Stanley's had a your searching years. Just playing

758
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: in the isle of you put in perspective just how

759
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: well he has played this year.

760
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 15: We just let him play over there.

761
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 19: We don't do much for him, so that says a lot.

762
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 19: I think Ronnie approaches each week with fresh eyes. I

763
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 19: think he has a plan going into the game. I

764
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,800
Speaker 19: think he practices his plan. I think on the sidelines

765
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 19: he's very intuitive, great communication, talks about what's going on,

766
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 19: talks to the other guys. I'm just excited to have

767
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 19: him here and have him doing what he's doing physically

768
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 19: right and the other thing with him. I think he's

769
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 19: in his ninth yeary we don't give him veteran days.

770
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 19: He practices all the time. I think that's huge and

771
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 19: part of how he's playing.

772
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 10: On the sideline after practice, working with a lot of

773
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 10: young guys.

774
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 5: How have you seen him and just elevate the very on.

775
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 19: That line, I just think anytime you can have a

776
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 19: veteran guy pouring in to young players, it doesn't matter

777
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 19: whether you're in the NFL or if you're in college.

778
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 19: The better your room is that that the more progress

779
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 19: you're gonna make within the room. We have several guys

780
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 19: that do that. We got Tyler that does it, Pat

781
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 19: does it, Ronnie does it. They all communicate with the

782
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 19: young guys and just build on what we're trying to

783
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 19: do in there. So when you have that going on,

784
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 19: the foundation only gets stronger throughout. And so he's done

785
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 19: that since I've been here, and I'm sure he's been

786
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 19: doing that since before I got here.

787
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 10: So yeah, headalleeves are a huge talking point obviously coming

788
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 10: out of the Pittsburgh game. Have been a few different

789
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 10: times throughout the year. How do you coach that, especially

790
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 10: when you're talking to a really experienced player like a

791
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,800
Speaker 10: Ronnie or McCarey, Just get.

792
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,399
Speaker 19: Your hands inside. I mean when most of them are

793
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 19: holding penalty. So we've had a few down the field

794
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 19: penalties on RPOs and screens. That's just being conscious of

795
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 19: not being too far down the field. You know, we

796
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 19: got I always say we have about a two yard margin.

797
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 19: I think in the NFL now it's less than that.

798
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 19: Just really they're really watching the line of scrimmage, so

799
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,200
Speaker 19: we have to be really intent on the screens the RPOs.

800
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 19: Sometimes we get caught right we're running a run and

801
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 19: if the ball doesn't come out on time, we're going

802
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 19: to be downfielding the rest of it. We just got

803
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 19: to get our hands inside and we got to be

804
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 19: smart about letting guys go. I mean holding in the

805
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 19: NFL is one hundred percent. Everybody holds. The guys that

806
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 19: get caught when you get your hands outside the frame,

807
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,359
Speaker 19: and that's what we do. Or the guy's getting away

808
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 19: from you, you tug in instead of letting them go. So

809
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 19: we got to be smart about it.

810
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 13: Georgia, I think we see on Friday when we go

811
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 13: into the locker room, guys kind of be up as

812
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 13: a linement doing some homeworker looks like, you know, fool,

813
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 13: what is that something you've always kind of done? Has

814
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 13: that been a legacy.

815
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 15: Of job I've done that?

816
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 19: I learned that from Jim Hannathan probably in like nineteen

817
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 19: ninety seven. I used to write the tip sheet one

818
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 19: hundred percent myself for him, and then I started making

819
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 19: them rite up players, probably ninety nine, just so the

820
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 19: young guys learn how to look at tape evaluate players,

821
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 19: and then I want them to write it up for

822
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,879
Speaker 19: each other so if I miss something, they might see

823
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 19: something subtly that will help them during the game. And

824
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 19: then I got tired of writing the whole game plan,

825
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 19: so I make them right of place. So that's just

826
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 19: taking something off of me, to be honest with you.

827
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 1: We also heard from defensive coordinator Zach or the defense

828
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 1: with the others and those song performances recently. Do you

829
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 1: feel like kind of have to go on through some

830
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: struggles early on to figure some things out personnel, scheme

831
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: of everything, this approach to turn the corner a little bit.

832
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 20: Yeah, I think so. I think we definitely improved. I

833
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 20: think we definitely got better. It's good to see it

834
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 20: start showing up in games.

835
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 14: Guys have always worked hard.

836
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 20: Obviously we tweaked some tweaks, some stuff with personnel, with

837
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 20: scheme and communication, but I still think there's a whole

838
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 20: another level we can get to. Man Like, we're just

839
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 20: getting started where we need to be at, and we

840
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 20: got four weeks left. We're gonna be continued to work

841
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,919
Speaker 20: hard throughout this week as coaches, players get some time off,

842
00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 20: and the expectation we come back is, Man, we got

843
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,399
Speaker 20: to be dominant on defense. So we took a step

844
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 20: in the right direction definitely from earlier in the season,

845
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 20: but there's still a whole lot we can get better at.

846
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 8: What's the next step in your mind as far as

847
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 8: getting there, I mean, you guys have cut out given

848
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 8: up the big plays the past. Defense is stabilized in

849
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 8: the back end.

850
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 20: What's next in number one thing is getting some take

851
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 20: Getting takeaways. Man, we not turned the ball over enough

852
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 20: and we got to get the football like we have to.

853
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 14: That changes games.

854
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 20: That now help us out tremendously from a defense standpoint

855
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 20: and for our team. So takeaways and then just even

856
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 20: you know, being more dominant in the in the red zone,

857
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 20: like if teams the teams are going to get down

858
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 20: there is National Football League, but let's hold them to

859
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 20: maximum three points or field goal attempt. So I think

860
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 20: takeaways and then just limited eliminating some of the touchdowns

861
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 20: when they get into the red zone, Zach.

862
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 10: Merlin said after the game. But he feels like there's

863
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 10: been a real mentality flip over the last month to

864
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 10: six weeks and then like, no matter what your name is,

865
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,479
Speaker 10: if you're not meeting this under you're you're not gonna

866
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:54,879
Speaker 10: be out there.

867
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 5: Like do you have you.

868
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 9: Seen that as well?

869
00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 14: Definitely? Definitely.

870
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,359
Speaker 20: Man, it's like, you know, holding guys accountable if it's

871
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 20: not looking the way we wanna look at from an

872
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 20: effort standpoint, from an execution standpoint, you know, obviously give

873
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 20: guys a chance to correct it, and you coach things

874
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 20: up some you know, guys are gonna make mistakes, but

875
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 20: you know, the tolerance isn't isn't high for guys who

876
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 20: who don't play hard or guys who continue to make

877
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 20: the same mistakes over and over again. So we have

878
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 20: to find guys who were gonna go out there and

879
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,760
Speaker 20: play hard and g and do things the right way

880
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,319
Speaker 20: and do things we wanted to be done. So I

881
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 20: think guys have started have started to see that, and

882
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 20: the players, you know, they take ownership in that.

883
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 14: Like as a player who you know, you don't want.

884
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 20: People out there with you who are not doing their

885
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 20: job or not executing their job. So I think I

886
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 20: think Marlon was right on with what he said exactly, but.

887
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 4: You know the Marlin say some the point of things.

888
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 4: He said, on a couple of occasions, what do you

889
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 4: think of that as a as a coach? And and

890
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,840
Speaker 4: how does that do you think impact you guys?

891
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 16: Uh?

892
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 14: And what particular?

893
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:51,800
Speaker 15: What particularly?

894
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 7: Uh?

895
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 15: He said term?

896
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 4: So what w when you have one of your defensive

897
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 4: leaders kind of coming out and saying those things, what

898
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:00,720
Speaker 4: sort of impact does that carry?

899
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 14: I think it's good.

900
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 20: I think carry is a big impact because you know,

901
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 20: first thing, to be a leader, you know, you got

902
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 20: to lead by example.

903
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 14: And I think Marlin Humphreys has led by example.

904
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 20: I mean you see it in his play, you see

905
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 20: it in his work at their care on the practice field.

906
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,839
Speaker 20: He plays hard, he's the heck of a player, tries

907
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 20: to do everything right.

908
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 14: So he's leading by example.

909
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 20: So when you have a guy who leads by example,

910
00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 20: they they got they got credibility to say say that,

911
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 20: and guy's gonna listen and guy's gonna follow that. So

912
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 20: I think it's good. Man Like, we encourage our guys

913
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 20: to you know, leading their own way. But if you

914
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 20: have something to say, if you feel strongly about it,

915
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 20: you know, speak on it. And I think Marlin has

916
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 20: done that, and I think a lot of guys have

917
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 20: followed his lead, which which is good for us.

918
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 11: Zach, you said a couple of weeks ago there was

919
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 11: a meeting where guys were holding each other more accountable.

920
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 11: Maybe feels like in retrospect, that's where things started to

921
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 11: get better. Is it reading too much into it to

922
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 11: say maybe that was the turning point for you whatever

923
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 11: having that meeting.

924
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 20: I wouldn't say it's reading too much into I think

925
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 20: the meeting definitely had an impact, just because we had

926
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 20: to do a lot of some deep soul searching and

927
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 20: it was it was a long meeting, and I think

928
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 20: it was good from a player and coach standpoint that

929
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 20: you know, we expressed what we wanted to get done,

930
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,840
Speaker 20: they expressed how they felt, and we know we was

931
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 20: able to come together and figure out solutions because that's

932
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 20: how we were about. Man, it's a partnership between players

933
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 20: and coaches, and our job as player and coaches go

934
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 20: out there and go play dominant, winning football, you know,

935
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 20: from a defensive standpoint, So everything that we do is

936
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 20: trying to come to that solution. So I definitely think

937
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 20: that meeting definitely had a part in it. So I

938
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 20: wouldn't say that's out of reach coming from.

939
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 7: Multiple players in the term has been more accountability.

940
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 6: What does holding themselves accountable look like?

941
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 7: What does it mean to hold their teammates accountable? But

942
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 7: it's like for you to hold your players accountable?

943
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 9: What is that looking?

944
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 20: I think that is just first thing. First is holding

945
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 20: yourself accountable. So guys got to look themselves in the

946
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 20: mirror and be like, am I doing everything possible to

947
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 20: go out there and be the best football player I

948
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 20: can be for this team and for this defense. And

949
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 20: once once you do that, once you hold yourself accountable,

950
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 20: now you can hold with others accountable and holding each

951
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 20: other accountable. I see the guys if somebody you know,

952
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 20: makes a mistake or anything that's not necessarily they're just

953
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,560
Speaker 20: lashing out at a guy, anything that they're pulling the

954
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 20: guy to the side, asking them what they saw and

955
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 20: how they can get better, how they can help them out,

956
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 20: or just teaching them.

957
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 14: And I think when you get.

958
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 20: The players holding each other accountable, that's when you really

959
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 20: getting some done, you know. And as coaches, that's our

960
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 20: job to hold the players accountable. And I think, but

961
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 20: when players hold each other accountable and they hold themselves accountable.

962
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 20: I think that's that's where you really start to build

963
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 20: something special. And I think we've seen that, you know,

964
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,319
Speaker 20: rise to a whole nother level over the last couple

965
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 20: of weeks. And I think that they're they're you know,

966
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 20: they're meeting even more together. They was already meeting together

967
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 20: as players, but they're meeting even more together and just

968
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 20: trying to get things figured out. So I'm proud of

969
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 20: how they taken accountability and how they you know, put

970
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 20: it amongst themselves, like, man, we're gonna figure this thing

971
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 20: out together.

972
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 16: Robinson has place more snaps in the past three weeks.

973
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 16: I know part of that's personnel Steelers, Chargers, Eagles on

974
00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 16: heavy teams.

975
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,760
Speaker 14: Is it more that or you see means something.

976
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 16: From trevious to says, hey, we just want this guy.

977
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 14: Boring the field. It's both.

978
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,399
Speaker 20: Man, I'm real happy with Tavious man t rob He's

979
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 20: a heck of a Player's growing to a heck of

980
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 20: a player for us. He does a lot of multiple things.

981
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 20: Obviously it has a lot to do with some of

982
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 20: the opponents we're playing. But he's earned snaps too. He's

983
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 20: earned snaps, I mean everything. He every time he goes

984
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 20: out there, he's in the right position, he does the

985
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 20: right thing, He's physical, he plays hard, plays the run well,

986
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 20: gets after the quarterback from the edge point, and you

987
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:28,399
Speaker 20: can reduce him inside as a three technique and rush

988
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:28,879
Speaker 20: him in there.

989
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 14: So you know, we're in the.

990
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,919
Speaker 20: Business if you if you're productive and you do things

991
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 20: the right way and you're going hard, you're gonna be

992
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 20: out there. So t Rob's done that and he's earned

993
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 20: more snaps, and I think you'll continue to see that

994
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 20: as well.

995
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 10: I mean you're seeing a lot more variety at linebacker

996
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 10: this year. I mean last year, I mean both were

997
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,399
Speaker 10: up on the peak basically three down backers. Why does

998
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,280
Speaker 10: that feel like the right thing at the moment.

999
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 20: Yeah, I think just because all the different guys next

1000
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 20: to Row offer different abilities and different strengths. And I

1001
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 20: think the best thing for us right now is we

1002
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,799
Speaker 20: just need production out of that production out of that

1003
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 20: position overall his linebacker and specifically the will and dying position.

1004
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 20: And I think the best way for us to get

1005
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 20: that production is to, you know, rope take those guys

1006
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 20: in there.

1007
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 8: We've seen Travis Stones play through an ankle injury for

1008
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:14,799
Speaker 8: six seven weeks, now he's been on the injury report

1009
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:16,759
Speaker 8: sometimes he's played a lot of other times not so much.

1010
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 9: How do you think he's handled that?

1011
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 8: And how helpful do you think this bye week is

1012
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,399
Speaker 8: going to be for him for the stretch run knowing

1013
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 8: how important he is to your defensive line from a

1014
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 8: run stopping standpoint, but also with.

1015
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 9: The past round.

1016
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,720
Speaker 20: He's a warrior man, He's a warrior. I mean he's

1017
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,480
Speaker 20: been He does everything he can to go out there

1018
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 20: and go play for us, and we know he's not

1019
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 20: a one hundred percent nowhere near it. And I've actually talked

1020
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:39,479
Speaker 20: about with the staff today. I said, this is gonna

1021
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 20: help him. The Bible's gonna help him the most. You know,

1022
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 20: on our team from a defensive standpoints, a lot of

1023
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 20: people's gonna help, but it's gonna help him because you know,

1024
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 20: when he's when he's healthy, when he's feeling good, I mean,

1025
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 20: he's gonna be dominant. And I can't wait, you know,

1026
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 20: for him to get some rest and come back out

1027
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 20: of his bye week feeling real good and and get

1028
00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 20: him back playing to how he was playing.

1029
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 14: And he's been playing good.

1030
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 20: But you know he's he's he's ain't he's out there

1031
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 20: basically on you know, on one leg essentially, so it's

1032
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,839
Speaker 20: not as it's not it's not as dominant as it's been.

1033
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 20: But the bowie he's gonna do great for him. I'm

1034
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 20: excited about Big Traft. I'm really excited about it. I'm

1035
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 20: glad to buy a week. It came at a good

1036
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 20: time for him, and he's gonna be ready to roll.

1037
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 12: Zach is going for being you know, since training camp

1038
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 12: to being a guy who wasn't getting on the field

1039
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 12: down Now he's like an integral part of the secondary.

1040
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 12: You just talk about what he's bringing to the table

1041
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 12: and I guess the.

1042
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 5: Persistence he's had to kind of grow into that role.

1043
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 14: He's being good man.

1044
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 20: I mean he's bringing great communication, great aggressiveness, physicality.

1045
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 14: And then range in the back end, which what we

1046
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:41,399
Speaker 14: value man.

1047
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 20: So we've been real happy with a D and I

1048
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 20: think the more he plays, the bet he's gonna get.

1049
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 20: He's continued to get better every single game that he's

1050
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:49,480
Speaker 20: he's been starting, and I think it just comes with

1051
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 20: the reps and like, I'm.

1052
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 14: Real happy with him. We're real happy with him.

1053
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 20: But I think, you know, it's a credit to him

1054
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 20: every single day in practice, even when he's on the

1055
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 20: look team going out here making play, He's always staying

1056
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 20: ready and being ready for his opportunity. And he got

1057
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 20: his opportunity and he's took it and ran with it.

1058
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:09,360
Speaker 20: So you know, I'm happy for him and I respect

1059
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 20: him to get even better.

1060
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 4: Organ tech what what do you what would you like

1061
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 4: to see more of from Marcus Williams to kind of

1062
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:18,719
Speaker 4: for him to get back on the field more.

1063
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,760
Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean, just continue to continue to grind, continue

1064
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 20: to get better, and continue to you know, play hard, physicality,

1065
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 20: make plays. I just think right now, just you know,

1066
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 20: essentially the two guys that we've been rolling with A

1067
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,080
Speaker 20: D and k Ham, they just they just been you know,

1068
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 20: playing a little bit better. So it's nothing, it's no

1069
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 20: indictment to Marcus, you know, It's just it's a it's

1070
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 20: a production business, and those guys been you know, more productive.

1071
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 14: I truly believe that Marcus is still a.

1072
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 20: Good, real good football player, and I feel like if

1073
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 20: he has to step in for us, that he will

1074
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 20: be able to go in there and do a heck

1075
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 20: of a job for us.

1076
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 1: Next, we heard from Raven's assistant head coach and pass

1077
00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,400
Speaker 1: game coordinator Chris Hewitt.

1078
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 6: We've seen as far as Marlin.

1079
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 2: I think Marlon before the season talking about you wanted

1080
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 2: to kind of stay healthy. That was a big problem

1081
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 2: with one last year. What have you seen kind of

1082
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 2: his season this year?

1083
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 9: Well, you already stated it. It's health. He's been healthy.

1084
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 18: And when Marlin's healthy and playing at the level that

1085
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:24,239
Speaker 18: he's playing at, he makes us a better defense. He

1086
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 18: brings that grit, he brings the energy, and that's that's

1087
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,240
Speaker 18: what this defense is made up of. He embodies everything

1088
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 18: that we talk about as far as being a raven.

1089
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 18: So when he's playing that way, we played better.

1090
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 16: It's obviously the big places he has put down on

1091
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 16: it is the past several weeks.

1092
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 9: Right, What do you attribute that to.

1093
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:47,239
Speaker 18: I think it's a little bit more of continuity with

1094
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,600
Speaker 18: the guys that we're playing with, not so much more

1095
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:54,280
Speaker 18: mix and match. Putting Kyle back in a deeper position,

1096
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 18: all those things that has helped, and then Marlin solidifying

1097
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,919
Speaker 18: himself down as the U as the nickel UH him

1098
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 18: being in going there and and and fit on a

1099
00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:05,439
Speaker 18: run as well playing in the past, all the things

1100
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 18: that UH that Kyle has excelled at. But he can

1101
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 18: he can do the other thing. So all those things

1102
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:14,479
Speaker 18: uh in compassed together has uh made us cut down

1103
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 18: on all of those explosive plays, which we're not gonna

1104
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 18: talk about right.

1105
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 6: What about the communication?

1106
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 2: How is that?

1107
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:23,720
Speaker 6: How much has that been an interact?

1108
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 18: Just like I said, it's just it's really about the continuity.

1109
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 18: And we probably have uh simplified a lot of things

1110
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:35,439
Speaker 18: in our defense too. We're not doing as much. So

1111
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 18: when you don't do as much, try to do too

1112
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,360
Speaker 18: much out there on defense. Cause you when when you

1113
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 18: got new guys and you got all these toys, you

1114
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,399
Speaker 18: want to try to put them in positions to try

1115
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 18: to you know, confuse the offense and in turn sometimes

1116
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,960
Speaker 18: to confuse as the defense. So I think all those

1117
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 18: things have have has helped us moving forward.

1118
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,240
Speaker 6: I Handlin type of display.

1119
00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:59,399
Speaker 9: He just talked about his contents. I mean he's been

1120
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 9: the thing up a few times in games.

1121
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 7: Yep, he's bought back the jury to getting back on

1122
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 7: the field, and he looks upset any time he has

1123
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 7: to leave it through that, and he just talked about

1124
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 7: his toughness and desire.

1125
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,799
Speaker 18: Well, I mean he's a that's that's that's pretty much

1126
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 18: like a lot of our guys, the guys that we

1127
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 18: have playing out there, they they don't want to miss

1128
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,879
Speaker 18: playing time and they will fight them, fight them way

1129
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 18: back on the field whenever they were hurt. And he's

1130
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 18: just he's just kind of fitting in what the culture

1131
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,279
Speaker 18: is that these guys they want to play and they

1132
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,320
Speaker 18: they're they want to be out there with their brothers

1133
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 18: and they want to go to battle with those guys,

1134
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 18: and he never wants to not be a part of

1135
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 18: a battle.

1136
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,839
Speaker 1: What what's stood out to you about your names.

1137
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:37,920
Speaker 11: Whites since he's road here.

1138
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,320
Speaker 18: He's a pro guy that has a lot of experience

1139
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 18: brings uh play making ability. Uh, he just got to

1140
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 18: get real comfortable with what we're doing is on the defense.

1141
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 18: But all those attributes as far as his play making

1142
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 18: and you know, being being a pro, a former pro bowler, Uh,

1143
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 18: he sees things on on on on on.

1144
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,399
Speaker 9: Game tape that we talk about.

1145
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 18: So he he's one of those guys kind of stays

1146
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,920
Speaker 18: ahead of the Uh, stays ahead of the game and

1147
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 18: looking forward to see him makes more plays for us.

1148
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 19: Teams.

1149
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,320
Speaker 11: We're targeting Brandon Stevens of it.

1150
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 5: There are some of those big plays against him.

1151
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: What did you see from him.

1152
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 13: That made me keep him out there.

1153
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 5: And what do you think the putt?

1154
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 18: Well, you you if you look at all the like

1155
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,359
Speaker 18: the plays that people have made on Brandon, it's it's

1156
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 18: about him locating the football or whatever. But he's always

1157
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 18: been a guy that's he He's sticky, he competes, he's

1158
00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 18: always right there at the catchpoint. And you know it's

1159
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,439
Speaker 18: a quarterback throwing a perfect ball. I mean, you playing dB,

1160
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 18: you know things like that are gonna happen and you're

1161
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 18: gonna give up some plays. Has he given up more

1162
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,279
Speaker 18: than he'd liked to. Absolutely, But there's a lot of

1163
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 18: factors that go and go involved with that. But Brandon

1164
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 18: has been he always plays hard. He knows what to do,

1165
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 18: but he's got to make those plays on the ball.

1166
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:53,920
Speaker 18: So that's really that's all it is.

1167
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,479
Speaker 10: Because when we when we just asked the act about

1168
00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 10: Marcus Williams, he said, look, it's it's a production bus.

1169
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 10: But I mean you have a player like that who's

1170
00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 10: used to being out there for every snap, right, he's.

1171
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:05,680
Speaker 6: A healthy scratch.

1172
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:07,239
Speaker 5: How big a jolt is that?

1173
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 10: And how can he sort of come back to guy?

1174
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,360
Speaker 18: Well, for one thing, Marcus is a he's a professional. Okay,

1175
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 18: he still approaches the game the same way. He's gonna

1176
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:19,399
Speaker 18: come into the meeting rooms and take the game plan

1177
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 18: and you know, continue to try to contribute as much

1178
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 18: as he possibly can.

1179
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:24,760
Speaker 9: Is it a jult to a system? Absolutely?

1180
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 18: He wants to be out there, and you know, moving forward,

1181
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,920
Speaker 18: you know we'll find out where we stand in health

1182
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 18: wise or whatever. But he's always going to be the

1183
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:32,719
Speaker 18: guy that's gonna be ready to go out there and

1184
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 18: go play.

1185
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 9: And we have the utmost.

1186
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:36,839
Speaker 18: Confidence in that Marcus. To ever come to it, he'd

1187
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:38,439
Speaker 18: been back out there and making plays for us.

1188
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:41,800
Speaker 16: Mark Darius as he's stepped in the deposition.

1189
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 9: What I've seen is a guy that.

1190
00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 18: Basically he just triggers and he just goes seaball, go getball,

1191
00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 18: and he's made plays and every game that he's been

1192
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,200
Speaker 18: in and that's why he's earned the right to be

1193
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 18: out there.

1194
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 9: He just makes plays.

1195
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 18: He's a guy that's been hurt in his first three years,

1196
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 18: and I've always felt this way about him.

1197
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:02,919
Speaker 9: He's just he's just a dog.

1198
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 18: He's a guy that's just go out there and compete,

1199
00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 18: plays with passion, plays with with with fire, and that's

1200
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:10,400
Speaker 18: why he's out there.

1201
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 8: What I don't think we've asked you about Nate Wiggins.

1202
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 8: What have you seen from him, you know, more than

1203
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 8: halfway through his rookie season, and kind of what's the

1204
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 8: next step for him as far as he continues to

1205
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 8: play more and more for you, right.

1206
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 18: I mean his he's been inconsistent, inconsistent, inconsistent, inconsistent. So

1207
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,279
Speaker 18: that's something that you do. What you do, you take

1208
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:30,799
Speaker 18: to take the good with the bad with the rookie.

1209
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,760
Speaker 18: But you he has he has a lot of ability,

1210
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,839
Speaker 18: so you see the upside with that. And he's made

1211
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,399
Speaker 18: those strides from early in the season going late into

1212
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,759
Speaker 18: the season, and I continue to see him continue to

1213
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 18: keep on getting better, like to see him get his

1214
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 18: hands on the ball a little bit more, at least

1215
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 18: complete the catches instead of just breaking it up. But yeah,

1216
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 18: I love where Nate is at right now.

1217
00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 13: How do you think the kind of platoon you guys

1218
00:54:57,280 --> 00:54:59,319
Speaker 13: have a linebackers help you guys shore up the middle

1219
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 13: of the field defense, especially on those kind of intermediate stuff.

1220
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 9: I'm sorry say that one.

1221
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 6: Time, Tune.

1222
00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:06,799
Speaker 13: You guys have a linebacker you know more Chris bord

1223
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,080
Speaker 13: more Malik has it helped kind of show up in

1224
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 13: the middle of the field.

1225
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,960
Speaker 18: Well, I mean that's just been an emphasis on you know,

1226
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 18: the last six or seven weeks, we've been really really

1227
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 18: been working on shoring up the middle of the field

1228
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 18: as well as you call it. And that's really just

1229
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,320
Speaker 18: about guys getting back to their spots in our zone coverage,

1230
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 18: vision on the quarterback and breaking on the ball. And

1231
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 18: you know, that's just been an emphasis going forward. It

1232
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 18: really doesn't have anything to do with the platoon or

1233
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,800
Speaker 18: whatever we're doing. It's just really about the emphasis for

1234
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 18: all the line back, the second there everybody. So that's

1235
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:40,319
Speaker 18: just really been an emphasis that we had been going

1236
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 18: with the last couple of weeks.

1237
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 1: And lastly we heard from a special teams coordinator at Chris.

1238
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 15: Hort, how are we doing guys? Good to see everyone.

1239
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 15: What do you got for me today? UK?

1240
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:59,280
Speaker 2: With Justin and the his struggles lately, have you noticed

1241
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,040
Speaker 2: any kind of and dealing with Justin, any any kind

1242
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 2: of difference in just you know, his attitude or anything

1243
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,360
Speaker 2: like that, you know, you know or you know, just

1244
00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 2: in going through the struggle, any kind of difference in.

1245
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:13,760
Speaker 15: Your dealings with them as far as uh, noticing anything

1246
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 15: different with him. I think Justin approaches his job every day.

1247
00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:18,520
Speaker 15: He's the same.

1248
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 12: Uh.

1249
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 15: He's full of energy when he goes out on the

1250
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 15: practice field. He works hard and he's doing the right thing.

1251
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 15: So there hasn't been anything unusual about him as far

1252
00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 15: as you know, outside of his ability. He hasn't been

1253
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,160
Speaker 15: making kicks. But other than that, I mean, he's he's

1254
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 15: been the same guy. Every day. He's working diligently to

1255
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 15: get himself going.

1256
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,839
Speaker 8: Chris, is there something to be said for getting away

1257
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:45,440
Speaker 8: from this for a week for him for the operation

1258
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 8: when when it hasn't been going well? And you know,

1259
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 8: sometimes I guess the expression try easier and having a

1260
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 8: bye week maybe allows you guys.

1261
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:54,400
Speaker 6: To do that a little bit.

1262
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 15: I think that I think that that is a good point.

1263
00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,839
Speaker 15: You know, he's been he's been going through it right,

1264
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:03,520
Speaker 15: So for him to just kind of clear his mind, uh,

1265
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 15: ease himself out of football for a little bit, I

1266
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 15: think I think that's gonna be good for him. But

1267
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,200
Speaker 15: me knowing Justin, Justin is probably gonna be somewhere kicking

1268
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 15: uh and just trying to trying to figure this thing out.

1269
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,480
Speaker 15: So I think it's it's good on both sides of it.

1270
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 15: But if if you know Justin he's a he's a

1271
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 15: he's a true pro, right, and then he wants to

1272
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 15: continue to be great. So he's probably somewhere take some

1273
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:24,360
Speaker 15: time off, and then he's gonna go out there. He's

1274
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 15: probably gonna go kick him.

1275
00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,080
Speaker 19: Yes, John said that it's something that needs to be

1276
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:30,360
Speaker 19: fixed and that Justin is the guy to fix it.

1277
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 15: He also said Justin knows what's wrong and he just

1278
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 15: seems to do it.

1279
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 18: Is it pretty much a Justin thing at this point,

1280
00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 18: Like it's something that he has to find within himself

1281
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:40,120
Speaker 18: or is there something.

1282
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:41,960
Speaker 15: That you guys can do as a staff. I mean,

1283
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 15: that's that's that's totally it. Obviously we're gonna we're gonna

1284
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 15: get out there, we're gonna work because when when you

1285
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,480
Speaker 15: see physically, you see him go out there and you

1286
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:51,920
Speaker 15: see him kick during the week, it's so true. Man,

1287
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 15: he's he's smashing the ball. When you see him in pregame,

1288
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 15: he's smashing the ball. You know, he's just got to

1289
00:57:57,160 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 15: continue to those things and bring him excellent into the game.

1290
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,760
Speaker 15: So it's something that he has to get himself out of,

1291
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 15: and we as coaches, we're gonna We're gonna stay on him,

1292
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:07,480
Speaker 15: We're gonna keep working, and we're gonna help him get

1293
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:07,720
Speaker 15: out of that.

1294
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:10,680
Speaker 13: Chris. I remember talking with Justin a couple of years

1295
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 13: ago for a story like and his recall for kicks

1296
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 13: five ten years ago, just where he put the ball,

1297
00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 13: where the ball was was incredible. Do you think that

1298
00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 13: kind of becomes a double edged sword in moments where

1299
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 13: he is struggling to kind of put it all together,

1300
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 13: just that that that kind of memory banks that he has.

1301
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 15: H I'm not I'm not quite sure. I think I

1302
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 15: think with Justin it's it's kind of his thing, right,

1303
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:36,560
Speaker 15: every kick, every kick lives on its own, and I

1304
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 15: think when he goes out there, he approaches it that way.

1305
00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,640
Speaker 15: So no matter what the elements are, where he places

1306
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:44,680
Speaker 15: the ball with target line, he picks his job is

1307
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:46,120
Speaker 15: and I got to make this kick and I want

1308
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:46,760
Speaker 15: to smash the ball.

1309
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 4: Going back to what you're saying about him, you know,

1310
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 4: smashing in practice and we see in warm ups. Is

1311
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:56,680
Speaker 4: it is he not having the kind of contact at times?

1312
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:58,600
Speaker 4: I know, I know each kick is different, but is

1313
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 4: he not having the kind of cope he would like

1314
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:02,840
Speaker 4: at times at the ball during games.

1315
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 15: I think it's a combination of I think it's a

1316
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 15: combination of a few things. It could be it could

1317
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 15: be contact, it could be uh just line angle towards

1318
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:13,400
Speaker 15: the balls. So it's a it's a combination of a

1319
00:59:13,480 --> 00:59:15,160
Speaker 15: few things. And and it was it's kind of like

1320
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:17,720
Speaker 15: it would say, like right, only only Justin can truly

1321
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 15: get himself out of that because he knows he knows

1322
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:21,040
Speaker 15: how to fix those things.

1323
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 4: It is in terms of other special teams, you know,

1324
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 4: Thailand talked about some of the fielding ponds and things

1325
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 4: so fourth on this past Sunday, and he's had a

1326
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:35,320
Speaker 4: couple of other hiccups with that. How do you go

1327
00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 4: about sort of finding that consistency that you guys want

1328
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 4: and cleaning up those those things.

1329
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 15: I think from the from the from the part return standpoint,

1330
00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 15: Thyland Tyland is back there because he has been he

1331
00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 15: has been a good catcher for us right and I

1332
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:52,960
Speaker 15: think when when he gets in certain situations and we

1333
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,080
Speaker 15: had kind of a windy game and the balls moving

1334
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 15: on him a little bit, he's just got to be

1335
00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 15: more decisive and making those decisions again. And Thailand's still

1336
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:05,120
Speaker 15: fairly still fairly young and fielding and having returns. I

1337
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:09,200
Speaker 15: probably guarantee doesn't have twenty returns in his career right,

1338
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 15: So for him, it's just a matter of when you

1339
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 15: are back there, man, make a split decision, make it quick,

1340
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 15: and you understand that at the end of the day,

1341
01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,160
Speaker 15: just give the ball back to the offense because that's

1342
01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 15: our model.

1343
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:21,919
Speaker 16: Obviously, there's a really high slayer here for special teams.

1344
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:23,360
Speaker 16: He all have been one of the best units for

1345
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:26,360
Speaker 16: a long long time across the board, just as you

1346
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,280
Speaker 16: guys would buy. How do you kind of assess the

1347
01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:31,960
Speaker 16: overall play of special teams, all the all the different units,

1348
01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:34,520
Speaker 16: and that's kind of the focus where you really want

1349
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 16: to see improvement.

1350
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 15: You know, first off, this is a this is a

1351
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,880
Speaker 15: good week for us, just kind of you know, we're

1352
01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:43,840
Speaker 15: thirteen games in, we got four games left, and you

1353
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 15: really take a look at all your young guys. We're

1354
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 15: playing a lot of young guys, and so it's funny

1355
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 15: you asked that ron I just finished watching all of

1356
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 15: our kickoff returns. We got twenty six on the on

1357
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:55,560
Speaker 15: the season, and when you go back through there and

1358
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,160
Speaker 15: you watch him, there's four penalties on there and they

1359
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 15: kind of hurt us on on on some longer return,

1360
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 15: so you kind of you kind of figure out, Okay,

1361
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 15: well those tech technique things, how do we get ourselves

1362
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,160
Speaker 15: out of that? And then and then working from there,

1363
01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 15: we're on the up. I'm starting to see our guys

1364
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 15: are starting to truly get a feel for for this

1365
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 15: kickoff return system. It's just a lot different than what

1366
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:21,880
Speaker 15: we've than what we've been used to. We thought early

1367
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 15: we'd come out we'd have an advantage, but we've rotated

1368
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 15: some guys. We had some guys that were that were playing,

1369
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 15: they were fairly young. They were in their third, second,

1370
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:33,760
Speaker 15: second game right of the season. So throughout that process, man,

1371
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 15: I'm just looking to see our young guys continue to

1372
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 15: grow and our veteran guys continue to lead. And I

1373
01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 15: do believe that we're going to continue to make progress

1374
01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:45,160
Speaker 15: on all the phases. You think about our punt coverage, uh,

1375
01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:47,800
Speaker 15: something that we harped on a lot this offseason of

1376
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,440
Speaker 15: covering punts and just being down there and being in

1377
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,800
Speaker 15: the right spot and making tackles. Man, our guys have

1378
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 15: done a great job protecting the punt covering thought. Jordan's

1379
01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 15: doing a great job, you know, and just continue to

1380
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 15: find that consistency, uh, across the board, and we'll we'll

1381
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 15: be fine, and we'll continue to develop and our guys

1382
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 15: will continue to get better and we'll and we'll move forward.

1383
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,720
Speaker 10: Just going back to the kicking for a second, is

1384
01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:12,680
Speaker 10: the is the snapping and holding part of the operation

1385
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,640
Speaker 10: where you want it to be from a consistency standpoint.

1386
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,480
Speaker 15: I think that's been that's been fairly that's been fairly consistent.

1387
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:21,680
Speaker 15: I mean, you know, I was thinking about this the

1388
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:25,600
Speaker 15: other day. You know, there's been kicks made where there's

1389
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:27,680
Speaker 15: been a good snap, not not a good hole and

1390
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,160
Speaker 15: the kick was made. There's been there, and there's been

1391
01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:33,200
Speaker 15: vice versa. Right, So I think for the most part,

1392
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 15: Nick is snapping the ball, great, Jordan's putting the ball

1393
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 15: on the spot again. Just remember it's a grain of rice, right,

1394
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 15: You're trying to put that ball down there. And for

1395
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,200
Speaker 15: the most part it has been consistent, right, And then

1396
01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 15: we just got to go out there. It takes all

1397
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 15: of us men to go out there. Starts with the snap,

1398
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 15: the hold and the kick.

1399
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 13: Is it how one thing in this field goals?

1400
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 6: But missing the extra point?

1401
01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 4: I mean it's come automatic for for most people who adjusted.

1402
01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:58,160
Speaker 6: Is that something that maybe fleeds over.

1403
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,080
Speaker 7: I mean, if there's something like that occurs early in

1404
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 7: a game where this is I the last Sunday, that

1405
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 7: carries over in his mind, maybe towards.

1406
01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 6: The field goal.

1407
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,000
Speaker 15: You know, I can't I can't speak for Justin because

1408
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 15: I'm not I'm not in his I'm not in his

1409
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:13,240
Speaker 15: mind right, but you know, uh it it could have

1410
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,600
Speaker 15: an effect. But if you if you talk to Justin again,

1411
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:18,560
Speaker 15: every kick is different, right, every situation is different. So

1412
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:21,560
Speaker 15: I can't speak for Justin mentally on what he's thinking

1413
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:22,920
Speaker 15: after he misses that Pat.

1414
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:24,400
Speaker 4: Is there any.

1415
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,480
Speaker 16: Consideration to having Jordan do kickoffs or anything just to

1416
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 16: take something off of justice plate and especially as it

1417
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 16: gets older.

1418
01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:32,920
Speaker 15: We've we've thought about that. We talk about it all

1419
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 15: the time. We practiced Jordan on kickoffs. If that becomes

1420
01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:39,600
Speaker 15: something that we want to do, we could that is

1421
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:42,240
Speaker 15: a that is a consideration, but as of right now,

1422
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:43,920
Speaker 15: we haven't. That hasn't been one of the things we

1423
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:44,439
Speaker 15: thought about.

1424
01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:47,080
Speaker 11: It's for the kickoff changes.

1425
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 19: Do you feel like they're doing.

1426
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,120
Speaker 1: What they were intended to do the game?

1427
01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:53,480
Speaker 15: I think so. They wanted to cut down on the injuries.

1428
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,640
Speaker 15: I think the injuries have been cut down, and then

1429
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,400
Speaker 15: there's teams that are putting the ball in play a lot,

1430
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:01,680
Speaker 15: and then there's teams that put the ball in play strategically.

1431
01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:04,680
Speaker 15: And I think you're seeing more returns and I think

1432
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:08,480
Speaker 15: that benefits all the guys that only truly play special teams,

1433
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 15: and it gives us, It gives us an opportunity to

1434
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:11,400
Speaker 15: coach some plays.
