0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Coming up on the game plan we are back from

0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the bye weeks, means we sit down with head coach

0:00:05.080 --> 0:00:07.480

0:00:07.480 --> 0:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Saints and to end the show, we're talking must watch

0:00:09.960 --> 0:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>matches to get a win out in New Orleans. All

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:24.640
<v Speaker 1>that more on the game Glen, welcome me in our

0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:27.560
<v Speaker 1>head coach Dan Quinn. After the bye week, Coach, I

0:00:27.640 --> 0:00:28.440
<v Speaker 1>just spent you a bi week.

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Man was chilling.

0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, looked at the team, you know some things that

0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:37.599
<v Speaker 3>we may need moving forward, and but most importantly, man,

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:39.239
<v Speaker 3>for the guys, it was it was awesome for them

0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:42.239
<v Speaker 3>to have that break in time, just to disconnect, just

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:44.440
<v Speaker 3>for a moment, and you felt that energy when they

0:00:44.520 --> 0:00:48.240
<v Speaker 3>came back into the building on Monday, like first day

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:51.000
<v Speaker 3>back at school, energy doing what you know, and just

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 3>that kind of connection and like let's go to work.

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:56.680
<v Speaker 3>It was a cool feeling seeing that kind of connection

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 3>already taking place.

0:00:57.840 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 4>And I think a lot of fans don't understand, like

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:02.280
<v Speaker 4>you know, like my dad for examples, like oh, they

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 4>should have work the whole bye week, they should take

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:06.040
<v Speaker 4>Can you talk about why you give them the time

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:08.720
<v Speaker 4>off and then why Monday is so important you kind

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 4>of set the week off and get ready for that

0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 4>Wednesday practice.

0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 3>I think it's probably worth noting like our times together

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:18.680
<v Speaker 3>as players and coaches are so intense. It is just

0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:23.640
<v Speaker 3>that type of all the time, and you need after

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.200
<v Speaker 3>thirteen weeks straight of it, you need just admitt it

0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 3>to breathe and then refill. And so for a number

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:33.759
<v Speaker 3>of the players and coaches, quite honestly, the batteries were

0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:36.120
<v Speaker 3>in the red and they needed to plug in and

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 3>get back in the green. And the way that you

0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 3>set up to recapture all the stuff you want to

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:46.120
<v Speaker 3>is when you begin Monday, you're back and you're not

0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:49.360
<v Speaker 3>into the game plan yet. It's literally about you reconnected

0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 3>and get all the things you want to work on.

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 3>Set it up to throw a great week, and you

0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:57.960
<v Speaker 3>have a bonus practice we call it on Monday, and

0:01:58.000 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 3>that's where it begins, and that's where you set the

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 3>agenda of what you want to get done. You know

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:04.760
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of big picture, and then quickly you

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 3>bring it right back into the week.

0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Because you talk about the buye we being a chance

0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:10.160
<v Speaker 1>to recharge with other guys have recharged and we're here

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:12.120
<v Speaker 1>on game day. What do you expect to see from

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:14.160
<v Speaker 1>them taking on too only states after this extra rest.

0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, what I'm hoping that you and the fans and

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.840
<v Speaker 3>our family see is relentless speed.

0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:21.680
<v Speaker 2>And finishing with them without the ball.

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.640
<v Speaker 3>And that means that plays down the field, the backside

0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:28.920
<v Speaker 3>receiver trying to go get it, you know, the pass

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:32.920
<v Speaker 3>protection all the way through running through your gap and

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.720
<v Speaker 3>through it through the tackle. That type of speed and

0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 3>relentless energy, that's what I expect us to see and

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 3>everybody to feel that.

0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 4>And I think the one thing about you know late

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 4>by is like you said, it is like people are

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:46.880
<v Speaker 4>in the red. Then it's kind of like re like

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 4>re ramping back up and getting into it. So how

0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 4>do how does the coaching leadership, how does the player

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 4>leadership make sure you get that result today of kind

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:57.160
<v Speaker 4>of you know, everything you've done this season behave just

0:02:57.160 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 4>a little break, but now we're.

0:02:58.120 --> 0:02:58.519
<v Speaker 2>Back at it.

0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you don't want to assume anything, sure, And so

0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 3>let's talk right about it right up front. And the

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:07.799
<v Speaker 3>way I saw the team after thirteen weeks. If you're

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 3>thinking about like a climbing like everest, you go to

0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:13.200
<v Speaker 3>base camp and we're not here.

0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:14.079
<v Speaker 2>At the bottom of the mountain.

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 3>You know, as you're moving up, then you charge everything

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.120
<v Speaker 3>kend just for the next one, and then for the

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 3>next one, and then for the next one, and you

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 3>just get a little stronger, and you get a little

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:24.520
<v Speaker 3>stronger to the next one and you get a little stronger.

0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:26.440
<v Speaker 3>And so that's what we want to do. You know,

0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.359
<v Speaker 3>you're within striking distance, but it's still a long way off,

0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:32.840
<v Speaker 3>so you don't think about everything four or five weeks

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:36.040
<v Speaker 3>from now. How do we just capture our style and

0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:39.640
<v Speaker 3>play into this game. And that's why the value of

0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:41.839
<v Speaker 3>the individual game is so important because you can put

0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 3>all of it into that game.

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 4>I like the climbing metaphor because it is one step

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 4>at a time and it really keeps you very prescient, like, hey,

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 4>I got to focus on this step in front of

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:52.800
<v Speaker 4>the next one. All there is, Yeah, and I think

0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:54.560
<v Speaker 4>that's a really smart way of looking at it.

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you don't have to can't play in those games yet,

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:01.520
<v Speaker 3>and so the only way that happens getting better and

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:02.760
<v Speaker 3>relentlessly chasing that.

0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:04.680
<v Speaker 2>And so that's what we want to see.

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.320
<v Speaker 3>And there's plenty of things as a position group to

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.160
<v Speaker 3>get better individually as a player and as a coach,

0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 3>and so now we put those things into action, like

0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 3>not just I want to what's the actual things you're

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:18.040
<v Speaker 3>going to do to say.

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to get better.

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:21.200
<v Speaker 3>And if you watch the guys pre practice and post practice,

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 3>there's some specific things that they're working on and that's

0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 3>part of their skill work to say I'm getting.

0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.360
<v Speaker 2>Better at this over the next month. And coach.

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Before we get into today's game against the Saints, we

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 1>got to give Bobby Wagner his flowers. He was nominated

0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.600
<v Speaker 1>to be the Walter Paytman of the Year for this team.

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.800
<v Speaker 1>New guy, first time with this team. What does that

0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>mean to you when you see a guy like that Garner,

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:40.919
<v Speaker 1>all that respect and admiration from a team he just

0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:41.160
<v Speaker 1>got on.

0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 3>I think it's the colliding of when a man has

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 3>his off the field world in order and they're on

0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:53.000
<v Speaker 3>the field world in order, and they mesh and that's

0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 3>what you see. And it's no surprise that the on

0:04:56.240 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 3>the field is strong because of the detail he puts

0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 3>into it. It's also no surprise that the off the

0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 3>field is strong because of the care of who he

0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 3>is and what he looks after. So he's not somebody

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:10.159
<v Speaker 3>with a lot of words, but he is about that

0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:15.160
<v Speaker 3>action and I love that about him because when he

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:15.960
<v Speaker 3>says he's going.

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:17.360
<v Speaker 2>To deliver, he delivers.

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:19.719
<v Speaker 1>And Bobby's about that action is so is the rest

0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:21.400
<v Speaker 1>of this linebacker course. So let's look at the Saints

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:22.880
<v Speaker 1>right now. What do you expect to see from our

0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>linebacker's going up against the offense like the Norman Saints.

0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:27.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, and Logan can tell you that this is a

0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 3>really accomplished running team. And for fans who've been in

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:35.960
<v Speaker 3>the past, can think about from Mike Shanahan's tenure here

0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 3>wide zone, really sprinting off the ball with guys like

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:42.280
<v Speaker 3>alf and Clint that could really stretch it and put

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:45.719
<v Speaker 3>their foot in the ground and get vertical. And that's honestly,

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:49.080
<v Speaker 3>you know what they do. And so when you see

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:51.840
<v Speaker 3>that type of burst and speed from the line, that's

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.920
<v Speaker 3>where the linebackers, the safeties, the defensive ends, they've got

0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:57.160
<v Speaker 3>to make sure they're setting the edge and allow these

0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 3>linebackers to get downhill.

0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:00.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you talked about the outside game, and you

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:02.320
<v Speaker 4>know a guy that is really good at it, and

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:04.880
<v Speaker 4>maybe you know kind of in this top five running back,

0:06:04.920 --> 0:06:07.440
<v Speaker 4>top ten running back kind of environment is Alvin Kamara.

0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:09.680
<v Speaker 4>And not only can he do it, you know, touching

0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:11.400
<v Speaker 4>the football as a runner, but he gets a lot

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.560
<v Speaker 4>of targets as a pass catcher, and I just it

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 4>puts you in a lot of conflict and you talk

0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 4>about him and how you kind of manage a talent

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 4>like that.

0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:19.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's he's so unique.

0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's got rare balance, and that as a running

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:27.200
<v Speaker 3>back is so critical. Not just the decisiveness to put

0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 3>your foot in the ground and get vertical, but the

0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 3>gap can be this small and he can just have

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.279
<v Speaker 3>this tremendous balance to stay alive and to go. But

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 3>he's just as explosive as a pass catcher, and not

0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 3>just in a screen game or a checkdown, but he

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.360
<v Speaker 3>can run the routes down the field. So certain players

0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:48.919
<v Speaker 3>garner special attention and recognition, and he is one of

0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.200
<v Speaker 3>those players. And it's proven and man for the Saints

0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 3>for a long time, they've had really outstanding running back play,

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:57.800
<v Speaker 3>not just three I'm trying like.

0:06:58.279 --> 0:06:59.599
<v Speaker 2>Looking back twenty years.

0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:03.160
<v Speaker 3>You know from Reggie and Sprolls and Ingram and now

0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 3>Kamara and others that have you know played well there

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:06.200
<v Speaker 3>through the years.

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.160
<v Speaker 2>But his ability in the passing.

0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 3>Game is significant, Logan, and it's a matchup, it's you know,

0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 3>how do you defend him?

0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:16.600
<v Speaker 2>And so he is an excellent player and.

0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:18.560
<v Speaker 1>Coach, you mentioned the passing game, so let's look at that.

0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 1>We'll be facing a backup quarterback. Derek Carr just got her.

0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:22.119
<v Speaker 1>He won't be playing.

0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:23.320
<v Speaker 2>How does that affect the game plan?

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.080
<v Speaker 1>When you know you're going to get a backup quarterback

0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 1>that hasn't played much, you really emphasize the system.

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:33.080
<v Speaker 2>And most of the time the system.

0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:35.880
<v Speaker 3>Stays consistent and you you know, may feature a few

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 3>more plays one side or another. But the hardest time

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 3>is when they played differently. And that you know, if

0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:47.080
<v Speaker 3>you think back to when like, for instance, Cam Newton

0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:48.840
<v Speaker 3>at the Panthers in his backup I believe it was

0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.440
<v Speaker 3>like Derek Anderson and one was playing drop back and

0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:53.800
<v Speaker 3>Cam could do a lot of things exceptional, but there

0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.600
<v Speaker 3>were different in this instance. These quarterbacks all have the

0:07:57.640 --> 0:07:59.720
<v Speaker 3>ability to get out on the edge on keepers. They're

0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:02.560
<v Speaker 3>all good play pass you know, guys that can you know,

0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.440
<v Speaker 3>action and throw the ball down the field. And so

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:09.200
<v Speaker 3>system wise, we're expecting that to feel the same.

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And I think you know, when you're talking about

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:13.400
<v Speaker 4>the system, I think if you were going to characterize

0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 4>it for fans, you talked about the outside zone stuff,

0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:17.559
<v Speaker 4>But in terms of maybe some of the play action

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:20.840
<v Speaker 4>or keeper stuff drop back, is there something there that

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.080
<v Speaker 4>kind of you say, this is like the defining feature.

0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 4>Like in the run game it's outside zoned. In the

0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:25.440
<v Speaker 4>past game.

0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 3>It's X yeah, and it's the downfield throw the slogan

0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.280
<v Speaker 3>and to block up six or seven and a protection

0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:35.200
<v Speaker 3>to throw the ball down the field, you know on

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 3>big shots. That's to me what makes you know a

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.800
<v Speaker 3>really good run action, play pass, marry together and so

0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.520
<v Speaker 3>they're capable of the big ones down the field.

0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:47.320
<v Speaker 1>And Coach, we can't talk enough about this offensive line

0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:49.480
<v Speaker 1>and the cohesion we've seen. Hear that brotherhood we've seen

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 1>for this offensive line. What have you seen from their

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:53.120
<v Speaker 1>development as we go in since today's game.

0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:58.640
<v Speaker 3>Seeing them work all together at practice, that's what you know.

0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 3>It carries over into the game. And so having this

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 3>whole week of these guys all getting all the reps together,

0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:07.440
<v Speaker 3>their communication. If you are standing by the line of scrimmage,

0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:10.720
<v Speaker 3>you're hearing constant talk and the best of the best

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 3>can do that to know quickly looks change and things happen.

0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 3>It might even be just by an alignment of a player. Hey,

0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:20.080
<v Speaker 3>this is going to happen. And so the guys that

0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:25.320
<v Speaker 3>can process really really quickly and still be violent and

0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 3>fast off the ball, those are the best offensive lineman

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:30.719
<v Speaker 3>because you have to be able to think quick on

0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:32.640
<v Speaker 3>your feet, you have to be able to react, and

0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 3>then you do have to be able to finish. And

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 3>so there's a number of these guys that are getting

0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:38.840
<v Speaker 3>a lot of reps at these same plays over and

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 3>over again. And that's why now we should really start

0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:45.360
<v Speaker 3>to take off and be at our best moving forward

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:47.080
<v Speaker 3>because of the extra reps that we've had.

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:49.079
<v Speaker 4>And a guy that to me, like in Bodies that

0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.559
<v Speaker 4>is Tyler Beattish and you know you knew him in

0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 4>Dallas and like you understood what he was and you know,

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:55.559
<v Speaker 4>I'm always kind of a center hater. You can put

0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.960
<v Speaker 4>anybody at center, but you really see the value that

0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 4>he's brought to this group from a leadership, from a compete,

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:03.000
<v Speaker 4>from a toughness standpoint. Can you just talk about what

0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:05.320
<v Speaker 4>he's meant to this group and how he's potentially kind.

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.199
<v Speaker 2>Of elevated elevated this group in my opinion.

0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:10.319
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's interesting Logan when you're not in a

0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:13.240
<v Speaker 3>leadership position. You know, even though you've played and he

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:17.480
<v Speaker 3>was behind some fantastic behind offense line to like Zach

0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 3>Martin's a fantastic offensive line and who is their guard?

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:22.720
<v Speaker 3>And here in his voice, well, Tyron Smith. And so

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:25.840
<v Speaker 3>you don't step out as much. But coming into a

0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 3>new spot, you know, this is what we are requiring

0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:32.160
<v Speaker 3>of you. And so it was a little uncomfortable for

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:36.280
<v Speaker 3>him to step into something as a leading voice. Same

0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:39.520
<v Speaker 3>with Nick Allegh ready to say okay, I'm ready to

0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:43.040
<v Speaker 3>have that voice and to take him in and early

0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.360
<v Speaker 3>on it's uncomfortable to lead. But the more you do it,

0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 3>people are listening and they're following, and that to me

0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:52.800
<v Speaker 3>is where I've seen the growth from him as well.

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:55.320
<v Speaker 1>And coach talk about people listening. Man, we listened to

0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.760
<v Speaker 1>all the oppresses, like listen to him like that a bible.

0:10:57.800 --> 0:10:59.360
<v Speaker 1>And you one thing you said was that you want

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 1>to improve on the turnover margin for this team.

0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.920
<v Speaker 2>How do you accomplish that today? It's a team stat.

0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:08.760
<v Speaker 3>So what I do appreciate right now for offense, we

0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:11.680
<v Speaker 3>are we're conscious of the ball, you know, we're making

0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 3>good decisions with the football, and we're not putting it

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:17.720
<v Speaker 3>at harm's way. Jaden especially, you know, as somebody that's

0:11:17.760 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 3>mindful of it puts it in the right spot to

0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:23.559
<v Speaker 3>go offensively. The guy's taking care of the ball defensively,

0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 3>we've got to find a way to knock it out

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:30.360
<v Speaker 3>more to we've had our hands on some and that's

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.400
<v Speaker 3>not the same. You have to deliver on the catch,

0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:36.560
<v Speaker 3>and so it's not a would a kulda shoulda. But

0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:39.440
<v Speaker 3>how do we practice delivering that? And so there's ball

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 3>drill's pre practice, post practice. Not in the same way

0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:44.880
<v Speaker 3>of you and I throwing catch. But my eyes are turned.

0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:47.280
<v Speaker 3>I have to glance at the last second to try

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.360
<v Speaker 3>to catch just the flash of the ball. I have

0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:52.200
<v Speaker 3>to catch it on the over my head in different ways,

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:55.400
<v Speaker 3>down low, by the ground, because you don't catch them

0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 3>here as a defensive back or a linebacker. You catch

0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 3>the ball way over here, you catch it down by

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:04.800
<v Speaker 3>the floor, you catch it diving, and that's how you

0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:06.400
<v Speaker 3>get better at getting interceptions.

0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:09.360
<v Speaker 1>And guys, it's crazy to say just four games left

0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 1>in the season, coach, what do you want to see

0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:13.560
<v Speaker 1>from your commanders during this final stretch.

0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:20.160
<v Speaker 3>Well, you clearly were not listening earlier. All I am

0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:25.120
<v Speaker 3>worried about this game. We're going back to base camp

0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:28.400
<v Speaker 3>for you, Brian. You know, like, honestly, that's what I

0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:29.920
<v Speaker 3>want to throw a great week man, I want to

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:30.680
<v Speaker 3>throw a great game.

0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:35.680
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely have a blast with these guys, like together they

0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 3>have created a really awesome place to play in coach football,

0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:42.280
<v Speaker 3>and so I don't want to miss it. I'm not

0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:44.440
<v Speaker 3>looking down the line. I'm not wishing for something else.

0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:46.559
<v Speaker 3>I want to throw a great game today and kick

0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:48.280
<v Speaker 3>some ass and then come back and try to do

0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:48.640
<v Speaker 3>it again.

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, Coach, we are in no rush as a show man.

0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm always listening to you, Coach all the top. Clearly not.

0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:56.719
<v Speaker 1>You so much for your time. Now, you guys got

0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:58.000
<v Speaker 1>to get into that firm room. So we'll let you

0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:05.040
<v Speaker 1>get to that, right, Commands, Family, we know you are

0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:07.600
<v Speaker 1>enjoying the game plan. However, if you want to see

0:13:07.679 --> 0:13:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Coach and Logan Paul said break down plays in the

0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:12.560
<v Speaker 1>film room, you could check that out on the Commander's

0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 1>YouTube page. Now, Command is family our ticket to him

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:21.319
<v Speaker 1>win on He's must watch match.

0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Logan only got seventy seconds.

0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:26.440
<v Speaker 4>You're ready Yeah, I got hurt you Fowler versus Flogg

0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 4>and again, this guy's gonna be a good pro for

0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:30.240
<v Speaker 4>a long time. He's a really good physical inline blocker,

0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:32.199
<v Speaker 4>but struggles a little bit with the speed rusher gives

0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:34.480
<v Speaker 4>up that outside hand. Fouler, I think with all the speed,

0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 4>he's got to give this guy a tough matchup. And

0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:37.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to check them some sacks for the old

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 4>head right here.

0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Foulo is having a career here.

0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:41.200
<v Speaker 1>A lot of it has to do with our next one,

0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Joe Junior.

0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Joe a journey versus Alvin Kamara.

0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:46.079
<v Speaker 4>And the reason it's the defensive coordinator versus the running

0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.440
<v Speaker 4>back is because this guy leads the team in targets,

0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:51.000
<v Speaker 4>leads the team and carries. He really is their offense

0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:52.960
<v Speaker 4>right now, and it's going to take all eleven guys,

0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:55.560
<v Speaker 4>plus the coordinator and the scheme to slow this guy down.

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:57.360
<v Speaker 4>It's going to be an awesome magic because you stop him,

0:13:57.360 --> 0:13:58.120
<v Speaker 4>you stop their offense.

0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:01.360
<v Speaker 1>Saints Tampton rushing in the NFL, And our last one, Logan, Yeah.

0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 4>We got Brandon Coleman and Garter and Greaterson. Excuse me,

0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 4>this guy is a blue collar snapped the whistle kind

0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 4>of guy.

0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Love the way he plays.

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.640
<v Speaker 4>It's gonna be such a unique challenge because nobody plays

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:12.839
<v Speaker 4>the game as hard as Granerson. So I can't wait

0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:14.360
<v Speaker 4>to watch Coman go toe to toe with this guy.

0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Great test for Brandon Coleman and a great test for

0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:18.560
<v Speaker 1>our commanders as we take on the New Orleans Saints.

0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:21.480
<v Speaker 1>For head coach Dan Quinn, Logan Paulsen, and Brian Covid Jr.

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:23.720
<v Speaker 2>This is the game plan. Let's get this w today.

0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:25.000
<v Speaker 2>We'll see y'all next Sunday.

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Commanders, family, you could catch us every Sunday on WSA

0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:30.760
<v Speaker 1>nine Sunday mornings before your games. This is game plan

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>with Brian Covid Jr. And Logan Paulson, he coach Dan

0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Quinn until next Sunday. Commander's family.

0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah,
