00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:14,079
Speaker 1: this weekend. We really do everything well, um, create a

5
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: lot of problems in all three phases of the game.

6
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 1: Very well coached. I have great players, great personnel, UM.

7
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: Good situational football team, very explosive team. And it's a

8
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: lot of put They put a lot of pressure on

9
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: you on every every single down. So UM, let's be

10
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: a big challenge for us team. We don't you know,

11
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: very well done much experience with but or getting know

12
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 1: quickly and um, and they certainly present a lot of

13
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: problems um from preparations standpoint, and I would say from

14
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: a matchup standpoint, UM, real real, real good football team,

15
00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: very talented team. UM. And you know cowbal organization is uh,

16
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: you know, obviously one of the premier franchises in all sports. UM,

17
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: National Football League. You know they've done so much for

18
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: the game, so much for the league since they've come

19
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: into the league nineteen sixty and of course Jerry Stephen,

20
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: the entire organization down there's um such mass amount of

21
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: success and been a very um semplary organization. In terms of,

22
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 1: you know, run a football team and you know, being

23
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 1: competitive through the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties. Now they're just

24
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: they strain a lot of a lot of good years,

25
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: a lot of championship seasons together, and so I have

26
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: a ton of respect for what they've done, how consistent

27
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: they've been. Um, the way they do things. You know,

28
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: Jason does as down there nine years. Um. You know,

29
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: a long career as a player is a solid career

30
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: as a coach. Has played for a lot of great coaches,

31
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 1: and you know coach with some too, um like coach

32
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: saving and uh so they're very very well coached, um Marinelli.

33
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: On defense obviously there's a lot of experience there so

34
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: so well experience staff of a lot of experience, and

35
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: they definitely know what they're doing to playing good situational football.

36
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: So um, big I said, big challenge for us on Sunday. Here,

37
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: where's the end of your questions? We're calling him great

38
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: ball coach and Dak Prescott is never thrown for four

39
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: thousand yards and the season pass for five thousand this year.

40
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: What have you seen change in his dame through through

41
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: the years. Yeah, we haven't played him, so this first

42
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: time we played him. UM, But right now, Yeah, he's

43
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: he's super impressive. UM, and a way he's going might

44
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: be more in bat I hit six, I don't know.

45
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy can throw the ball. He's very accurate.

46
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: He's got great poise in the pocket. UM stands in there.

47
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: I mean he can, he can extend plays and round

48
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: if he has to, but that's he doesn't do much

49
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: of that unless he really needs to. He has great

50
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: patience and poise, discipline in the pocket, gets his eyes downfield. UM.

51
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: He's a very good deep to inter intermediate to deep

52
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: all thrower. UM, he's got good weapons. But he's he's

53
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: been super impressive, just great great quarterback. UM. Sideline throws, inside,

54
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: throws in cuts, posts, over routes, flag routes, UM, you

55
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: name it. Possession passes on third and down in best

56
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: third down team in the league, best passing team in

57
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: the league, most big plays in the league. I mean

58
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: where to start. I mean they do it all and

59
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: he does it all. So and he runs options, he

60
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: runs read zones, keeps the ball on critical situations. Tough

61
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,839
Speaker 1: guyd of tackle, makes tough yards when he needs them.

62
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: So he's it's really good you just referenced the third

63
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: success for the Cowboys, the thy percent a lot of them,

64
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: it seems on the third and long beyond press God,

65
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: how much of that is due to the the array, versatility,

66
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: the type of receivers they have, two bats, they have contestable. Yeah,

67
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: they everybody's a problem. Um. I mean, I gotta be

68
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: the best short yardage team in elygue too like that.

69
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: That's a problem. And they rip off some big plays

70
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 1: in short yardags too. It's not like the it's third

71
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: and one and they gained two yards. They've had some

72
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: as they had a couple of forty yards in there too,

73
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: So shut yards is a problem. Long yards is a problem.

74
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: They're the best long yardge team in elygue third and ten.

75
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: You know, I don't really care. They picked that up

76
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: third and five. I mean they're over fifty percent on

77
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: third down and Um, they execute very well. They've got

78
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: again a good scheme, they're well coached, good quarterback, good

79
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: skill players, good offensive line. They're not in a lot

80
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: of long yarded situations, but when they are, they picked

81
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: those up, as we just talked about. So that's it's

82
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: really everything's a problem of good to mention with Daky,

83
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: But how about just the backfield and what Zek brings

84
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: to that kind of tan Zeke Pollard. I mean, they're

85
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: both great backs and it Zee's a tough back, downhill guy.

86
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: It's had a lot of big a lot of big

87
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: run since he's coming to league, way more than anybody else.

88
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 1: He's our guy to tackle. That's got a good vision,

89
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: good power. Pollard, it's an explosive player. He can do

90
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: it all too. Um quick, elusive, good strength, good running skills,

91
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: good vision, catches them all well, a good returner. So

92
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: sometimes they play together. Usually it's just one of them though,

93
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: but occasionally both guys are on the field. Um, they're

94
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: both outstanding playmakers. There's doesn't matter which guys out there.

95
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: That's a problem. Marks back in twenty sixteen, did you

96
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: guys have to know Deck at all? I know you

97
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: were one of the Handibul teams been drafted a quarterback

98
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: from the third. I know there's a multiple quarterback the third,

99
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: fourth down. There is Zack someone he does. I know. Yeah,

100
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: we did work on I mean, you know, we do

101
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: some work on everybody. But yeah, you say hit those

102
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: Missisippi State guys pretty good with a lot of connections

103
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: down there. So you know, he had a great college career, UM,

104
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: and he's certainly having a great pro career. He's having

105
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: a great year this year. Hard to see anybody playing

106
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: much better than him. It's guys, guys, stuff aready? Is

107
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: there a common denominator or and there are big plays?

108
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: I think you're second in the league twenty plus yard

109
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: play again before is it just put the plays? Big play?

110
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: Just five different receivers, Um, run backs, Prescott man play

111
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: against Washington and they had to go for forty some

112
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,679
Speaker 1: yards too. So yeah, I mean they get them from everywhere.

113
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: They can, you know, throw them long, they can throw

114
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: them short and catch and run. They can throw those

115
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: intermediate routes as twenty twenty five yard ers and you know,

116
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: tack on another twenty yards after the catch. Receivers are

117
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: good with the ball in their hands. They're hard to tackle. UM.

118
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: So Paulo's a big play guy. Elliott's a big play guy. Prescott.

119
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: Let me go right down the line. Few is big

120
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: plays in the league. What does that say about that

121
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: you need? Does that speak too discipline approval? That's a

122
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: lot of little you know, a lot of good players. Everybody,

123
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: do you know, taking care of their responsibility. And there's

124
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: no one guy can stop an offense in this league.

125
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: So I put eleven guys out there. They can work

126
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: together and I know their responsibility and be um, you know,

127
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: cohesive as a unit. What has stood out to you

128
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: from Jason Witten? I was a solid player. Um, it's

129
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: on the field A lot plays about three quarters at

130
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: the time. Big guy, a competitive blocker. UM, go to

131
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,679
Speaker 1: them in some critical situations. It comes back on the broadcast,

132
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: moo if I know where you guys don't face them

133
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: that often. But does he look similar to what you

134
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: might have seen in any crossover games and watch? Yeah,

135
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: I mean look that everybody looks good for them, Like

136
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: there's just so many guys. It's you can't lose track

137
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: any of them, like they're all they're all problems. Lark High,

138
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: it's like he plays mostly on so three technique pass

139
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: our situations pretty much for year extract. I mean, look,

140
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: they've got a lot of good players on the defensive line,

141
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: so you know, I don't I don't know how many

142
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: pressures they have, but I mean it's a lot they

143
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: you know, they get ahead, they get in third down

144
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: and what we really any down Like these guys are explosive,

145
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: They're very disruptive, negative plays tackles for loss. Linebackers are

146
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: you know, very active in a smith and or esh

147
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: I mean away as good as anybody will play against

148
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: all year. So a lot of instructive guys up front,

149
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: you know, put them all together and it's all it's

150
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: all a problem. It's just not not one guy. I

151
00:09:55,559 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: don't think I'll build one kind of stressed is kelln

152
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 1: Moore's kinds the use of just shifts in emotions for

153
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: their offense do kind of put a ton on the defensive. Yeah,

154
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: I mean shifting emotion from the offense you know, sometimes

155
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: causes well, it causes some defensive communication. Depends on what

156
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 1: your independs on what the shift is and so forth.

157
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: Of it all invariable based on you know, the specifics

158
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: of that individual alignment shift and so forth. But I'd

159
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: say for the most part they use it as um

160
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 1: you know, indicators formation indicators for the offense, and you

161
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 1: know there's the great defensive communication that goes with it.

162
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: Enroll Bill. Earlier this week, Jerry Jones shared story about

163
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: meeting you by chance of the ski resort in nineteen

164
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 1: ninety six. Do you remember that encounter it Yeah, ords

165
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: out in snowmass Um. It was out there with the

166
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: family and Jerry's us spot Big white Jack with a

167
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: Blue Star, come off a couple of Super Bowl victories

168
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: out there, so um, yeah, Jerry's and the Jones, they've

169
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: always been great. Tomato as Kurt had a great relationship

170
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: with them. Uh, you know when Jimmy was it, Um,

171
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: when Jimmy was a coach down there. You know, I

172
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: was at Cleveland on a f C NFC and it

173
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: wasn't really much much competition there, so you know, we

174
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: were involved in a few trades and you know, offseason

175
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: conversations things like that. Um. You know, still from where

176
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 1: we are and where they are, I mean, it's really

177
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 1: not a lot of direct competition. It's a team that

178
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, we've worked with before. Um. Yeah, Jerry's. You know,

179
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: I have all respect in the world for Jerry, and

180
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: he's totally committed to winning. Um that organizations committed up

181
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: to winning, and Stephen does a great job with their

182
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 1: organization and personnel, and Jason does a great job on

183
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 1: the coaching end. So you know, I spent a lot

184
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: of time, you know, talking to those guys at various

185
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: owners meetings or workouts or you know what have you

186
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: what you supposedly said to him. The takeaway minded Jerry recall, Yeah,

187
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: I saw, I don't I don't know if I can't

188
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: remember the way Cherry described it as you know, he's

189
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: probably got better remembery not Well. Now we're at Snowmass

190
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 1: and you know, it's kind of the end of the

191
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: day and I know, you know, picking the kids up

192
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: from ski school and whatever can be Snowmass. Do you

193
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: see the Cowboys use decks mobility as a party there

194
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: on the uh, some of it. He I mean, he's

195
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: just a good football player, so he uses it when

196
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: the opportunity presents itself if he needs to um. And

197
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: they have a few plays, you know, the reads on plays,

198
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: they have some option plays, things like that, a couple

199
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: moving pocket plays. I wouldn't say it's an ordinate amount.

200
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: It makes a few inns from time to time, just

201
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: another just another thing to bother the defense. It's another

202
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: thing too you have to worry about. And defends on

203
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: another rock on a big pile of rocks. R McKenny

204
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: Bill Antonio Brown issued an apology to rubber Craft earlier

205
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: this week. I wondered if you were keeping an eye

206
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: on that, the NFL's investigation of Antonios. Yeah, we just

207
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,719
Speaker 1: talk Robert about that. I mean every week you guys

208
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 1: asked me about a players not on our team, and

209
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: so every week is to be the same answer. O right,

210
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 1: M Bill. I'm curious he spoke about Rod Marinelli's defense

211
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: and how he's done what he's done for a long

212
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: time now. Um, but how frequently will you guys see

213
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: something that a team will you know, sort of totally

214
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: shift years in terms of scheme or plan just to

215
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: play you guys, because it's you know, the Patriots and

216
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: you guys have had a successful offense over the years.

217
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: And I'm talking specifically defensively, I guess you're facing opposing

218
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: defensive How often does that happen? And how much faith

219
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: do you have in Josh and Time to be able

220
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 1: to adjust on the fly if it doesn't right? Well?

221
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: I think if look, I would say, in your game

222
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: plan in this league, you never really know what the

223
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: other team is going to do, all right. I mean,

224
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of experts out there that

225
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: have it all figured out. Unfortunately I'm not in that group,

226
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: all right, so you know, the team's played you know,

227
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: four or five, six other teams, and they've done different

228
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: things against different teams for different reasons. And then they

229
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: play you and you haven't played them, so you know,

230
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 1: you don't really know what they're gonna do. They're gonna

231
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: treat you the way they treated somebody else. They're gonna

232
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: treat you differently in the way they treated somebody else.

233
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: You know, it's not the same plays, it's not the

234
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: same players. So there's always an element of all right,

235
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: well here's what they did in the last four games. Well,

236
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: but that's not against you. And teams will do the

237
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: different things against your team they've done it against other

238
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: teams as they should. Might not be a new play,

239
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: they might just run different percentages of man coverage or

240
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: zone coverage, or split zone versus post safety zone, or

241
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: split zone versus regular zone, or whatever it is. And

242
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: so that's that's the way it is every week, you know,

243
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just forty five years. I mean, I

244
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: wish I could tell you a week where it hasn't

245
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: been that way, but I wouldn't be able to. So

246
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: you take the information that you have based on and

247
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: sometimes the last three or four games. May I don't

248
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: mean anything. Maybe the only thing it really means anything

249
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 1: to you is and it'll last couple of times you've

250
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: played a team. If you look at it that way,

251
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: you might be right, you might be wrong, but that's

252
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: you know, you have to figure out what you're gonna

253
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: prepare for, and so you can't prepare for you know,

254
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: eight games, there's I don't know, five hundred plays and

255
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna run sixty. So you know, it's just it's

256
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: just three dick. You can't do that. So that's way

257
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: it is. Every week that may come in and play

258
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: something that in the percentages you thought they would play it,

259
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 1: they might play something in different percentages. You know. In

260
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: terms of seeing a totally new defense, I mean that's

261
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: pretty infrequent. Happens from time to time, or maybe a

262
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: new defense in a situation, you know, third down or

263
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: goal line or something like that, maybe against particular formation,

264
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: you might see something a little bit different that they

265
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: haven't shown or but that's you know, it's more of

266
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: a situational play, I would say, or situational call. But yeah,

267
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: look I don't think rods, you know, come up with

268
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: six new blitzes and four new coverages this week. But

269
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna play us away? He play Detroit. I mean,

270
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, go ask out. You're gonna play us away?

271
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: He played you know, Philadelphia and the Jets. You know,

272
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: I don't know the answer that question. Not all those

273
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: games are the same. There's elements that are the same,

274
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: there's things that are the carryover, but mayn't do the

275
00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: same thing on every play. So it's the same every week.

276
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 1: You prepare for what you prepare for, and then what

277
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 1: you get in the game. Just like Eisenhower said, preparations

278
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: important for the war. Once a battle starts, he's throw

279
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,719
Speaker 1: it all that out the window. You play a war,

280
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: fight the battle. So that's that's what we do once

281
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: a game starts, trying to figure out how the game

282
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,919
Speaker 1: is going, make adjustments, do the best we can at

283
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: that point in time, Like all the rest of the

284
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 1: preparation didn't really might be relevant, but might not A

285
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: question with your boss and Bill. The corresponding move with

286
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,959
Speaker 1: Isaiah's activation was putting Gunner on IR two. Part one

287
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: is your thoughts about seeing him making the team, his

288
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 1: contributions in his time for Obviously, his season came to

289
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: an end but then beyond what Mohammed has been asked

290
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: to doing, how he's respond in, particularly after that game

291
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,239
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia with the windy conditions and getting out there

292
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: returning punts. She hadn't had a lot of experience the level. Yeah. Well,

293
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: I mean, look, Gunner earned his way onto the team,

294
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: and you know, we would love to have him on

295
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: the roster and be able to use him, you know,

296
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: in that role, which is just unfortunately at this point,

297
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: we're not We're not able to make that happen. So

298
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: you know, he's a tough kid. You know, he's he's

299
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: fought through some stuff all year. Um, but we are

300
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: where we are, so we'll move forward. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, look,

301
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: most come in and done everything we asked them to do.

302
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't catch up to everything in a

303
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, um, but he's done very best he

304
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: could to make up as much ground as possible, and

305
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 1: he's made up a lot. Um, there's still a ways

306
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: to go, but you know, we'll just keep trying. He'll

307
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: keep trying. We'll see where it takes us. Bill Amari

308
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: Cooper's played just over one full season with the count

309
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 1: Boys and would have been seen from him since he's

310
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 1: got the Dell and what makes him so difficult to cover? Yeah, everything.

311
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: Guy's a great player, certainly the record and statistically what

312
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,959
Speaker 1: they've done in the passing games since they've gotten him.

313
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: That's saying that's the only thing. But you know, he's

314
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: certainly a big part of it. And he can start

315
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 1: with him. Um, you know, he's got great speed. It's

316
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: a big time vertical threat. Run after the catch is

317
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: very good. Um, you know, he's a sharp route runner.

318
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 1: He can get in and out of cuts, stuff got

319
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: to cover. Got a great quarterback, a good offensive system,

320
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: so he can he can kill you on short catch

321
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: and run plays. He can you know, run all the

322
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: intermediate routes which are hard to cover. And he can

323
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: certainly kill you down the field, you know, in single

324
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: coverage on the outside or on inside routes if you

325
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: don't have the middle of the field defended. So and

326
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: he's got a quarterback, I can get him the ball

327
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: in all those situations very accurately. Um, Prescott does a

328
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: great job on comebacks, deep stop routes, double moves, U

329
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: perimeter go routes, against press cover. He's where there's you know,

330
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 1: only a couple inches to drop the ball in. He

331
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: gets it in there. So he had a great receiver

332
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: and he had a great quarterback um that both do

333
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: a lot of things well. So it's it's a big problem.

334
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: He's not a great job for him. It's been a

335
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: great addition and he's had a great production and he's

336
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 1: helped other guys get more production because of the attention

337
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: that you have to pay to him. Thanks coach. Okay, yeah,

338
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: all right. Thanks
