Speaker 2: Here's Kevin O'Connell, coach of the Minnesota Vikings, courtesy of

10
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Lottery. And you did your Monday presser virtual

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: And when extroom said, Jeff, your mic is off, did

12
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: it throw you back to twenty twenty, that awful virtual

13
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 2: twenty twenty season?

14
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 4: It did a little bit. Yeah, But I was able

15
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 4: to if nobody else was on that call, I could

16
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 4: have helped with all the technical difficulties, going back to

17
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 4: all the times we had to be on zoom.

18
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 2: What does one do, Kevin when quarterback Tyson bige and

19
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: enters the game? I mean, do you start with Wikipedia?

20
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,559
Speaker 2: And then like do you watch the preseason film on TV?

21
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 3: Timeouts? Like what do you do?

22
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: Now?

23
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 4: We had been prepared for him, really, he was a

24
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 4: player that had a pretty spectacular preseason and really came

25
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 4: to life kind of before everyone's eyes there in Chicago.

26
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 4: What I think they liked about him is kind of

27
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 4: a similar skill set to Justin from a standpoint of

28
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 4: can throw it, you know, athletic ability to you know, scramble,

29
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 4: create off schedule, but also have some things designed for

30
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 4: him in the run game. So we didn't expect all

31
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 4: that different of a plan when he came in, But

32
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 4: now you got to kind of figure out the flavor.

33
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 4: I thought he did play well, saw the field well,

34
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 4: got the ball out.

35
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 2: Now what was it like calling the first game without Jefferson?

36
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: You've watched it back, You've seen good, you've seen bad.

37
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: But thinking aback, thinking back to calling it, it just

38
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: had to be so different, right.

39
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, especially you know, we saw some things, you know,

40
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 4: third down wise in the game pretty consistently that we

41
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 4: don't we see a whole heck of a lot normally.

42
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 4: And that's going to be growth for all of us,

43
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 4: me included, as far as how we continue to help

44
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 4: all of our eligibles come to life, have the chance

45
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 4: to beat man coverage type man coverage where really we're

46
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 4: so used to you know, eleven double JJ, twenty two

47
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 4: double JJ, and and all these different looks where now

48
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 4: we're playing it straight up. Kirk can be aggressive and

49
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 4: rhythm and we can try to attack and get the

50
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 4: ball downfield. And I thought there were moments for each guy,

51
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 4: whether it was TJ Jordan kJ or even Brandon Powell,

52
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 4: but we just need to be a little bit more consistent,

53
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 4: a little bit more consistent in our execution. A couple

54
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 4: of times we had some chances on some play action

55
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 4: games and there, you know, give credit to the Bears.

56
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 4: They sent some pressures to try to disrupt our playpass

57
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 4: protections and they had some success with it.

58
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 2: So so, how often do you practice an entire week

59
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: anticipating something's coming and consistently it actually comes.

60
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 4: It has not been very often since I've been the

61
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 4: head coach or now. What we did expect was probably

62
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 4: my number one disappointment in the game was the movement

63
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 4: up front, stemming the front pirates five spikes and really

64
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 4: not getting too technical, but just never really in no

65
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 4: sitting targets on the front to be able to get

66
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 4: double teams. There was a lot of you know, post

67
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 4: snap movement that we were expecting, just didn't handle it

68
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 4: very well pa and caused us to have more negative

69
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 4: runs that we wanted to be behind the sticks and

70
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 4: then have I think six or seven, eleven or third

71
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 4: and ten plus plays there, which is not a formula,

72
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 4: especially on the road in the NFC North, to try

73
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 4: to sustain offensive success.

74
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: So does that lead to like say, TV timeouts, It's like,

75
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: all right, guys, you know, we thought about this, we

76
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 2: worked against this, but it looks like it's going to

77
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 2: be this, and in snappy fashion, you just have to

78
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: move on.

79
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, you got to move on from maybe some of

80
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 4: your favorite thoughts you had coming into the game. More

81
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 4: so in the run game, e. You know, they're playing

82
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 4: like you talked about. They're playing more of a wide

83
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 4: nine instead of a six technique that could throw off

84
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 4: a lot of the angles and the fits of the

85
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 4: run game that we may be practiced against. But no excuses,

86
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 4: that's life in the NFL. We've got to have rules

87
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 4: and plays built to handle and adjust on the fly.

88
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 4: Thought we could have been better at that, and that's

89
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 4: hopefully what our growth will be moving forward in the

90
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 4: run game and clearly trying to develop more explosives in

91
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 4: the past.

92
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 2: Game Kevin, have you mentioned fundamentals more this season than

93
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: maybe ever And if that's the case, If so, why

94
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 2: because like this week, part of it was beating one

95
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 2: on one matchups.

96
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think pa sometimes we get so enamored with

97
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 4: scheme and scheme and scheme, but within that scheme requires

98
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 4: guys to do their job and to be coached up

99
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 4: at a really high level how to do the job

100
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 4: that we're asking them to do. That's our job as

101
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 4: coaches equip them with the tools either through scheme and

102
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 4: then following that up with the fundamentals and techniques that

103
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 4: it will require to win at an NFL level. Regardless

104
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 4: of what the matchup may be, you still got to

105
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 4: do it with detail, rhythm, timing, and technique to go

106
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 4: along with ball security. You're really talking about two of

107
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 4: our foundational pillars to our football philosophy that at times

108
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 4: we got to make sure we don't step too far

109
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 4: into the world of scheme, making it only about the

110
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 4: lines on a sheet of paper. We've got to be,

111
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 4: you know, able to get these guys to have those

112
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 4: plans come to life, possess the football, ball security, and

113
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 4: then the details of doing their job, and you'd be

114
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 4: shocked at the success that will follow if we just

115
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 4: do those things.

116
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 2: And speaking of the words scheme, you know, I've heard

117
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 2: it from you and really all the coaches.

118
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: Since since I've been doing stuff like this.

119
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: And you know, like Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel did

120
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 2: they left and did not return in the Browns game.

121
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 3: So that's going to be tenuous, maybe.

122
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 2: Right up to the game, and coaches will say, well,

123
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 2: we prepare for scheme, and then I'm thinking like, okay,

124
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 2: well the McCaffrey players with Elijah Mitchell, you know, just

125
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: might be a little different or maybe not as effective.

126
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: So how is that handled when two high high enders

127
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 2: are dicey into a game.

128
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, you've got to still prepare for what you see

129
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 4: on tape because they're both tough, played a lot of

130
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 4: football in this league, probably not always at so we've

131
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 4: got to expect to see both those players, but they do.

132
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 4: They're very deep teams. So if it's not Debo, is

133
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 4: a i UK, is it kittle? You know, how are

134
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 4: they deploying their guys? You know, McCaffrey is playing as

135
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 4: well as anybody in the game right now at that position.

136
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 4: So any if if they're not able to have one

137
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 4: or two of those players. It might affect the way

138
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 4: Kyle calls it the flavor of the day with how

139
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 4: they're trying to attack and the run and pass game,

140
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 4: but still they're going to be so so schematically sound

141
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 4: because of their play caller and the design of what

142
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 4: they're doing that we just got to be We got

143
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 4: to match that with our scheme on defense, how we

144
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,119
Speaker 4: fly around, how we finish, make sure we tackle well,

145
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 4: make it about the little things within the scheme that

146
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 4: will make it all come to life.

147
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: And I know you know Kyle sham hand well and

148
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: have gone against you many times from your NFC West days,

149
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: and he gets well deserved praise for his approach to

150
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: offense on a weekly basis, But he also does have

151
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 2: some of the best players in the league. So truly,

152
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: what makes him so respected as an offensive designer, play

153
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:18,679
Speaker 2: call or whatever.

154
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, to me, it's his ability to really understand how

155
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 4: to attack you in the run game first and foremost,

156
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 4: how to create premium leverages angles matchups within the run

157
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,119
Speaker 4: game where they want to run it, whether it's behind

158
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 4: Big Trent on the left side. Kittle's a premier blocking

159
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 4: tight end they've got use checket as a really all

160
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 4: purpose Swiss army knife. So he's got the tools and

161
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 4: the players, but then the scheme is really sound. And

162
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 4: then above all that his ability to understand your options

163
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 4: to defending those runs, how players are going to fit

164
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 4: different gaps, and how he can put guys in conflict

165
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 4: to I got to defend this gap, but also this

166
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 4: route to Iyuker Samuel rehim behind me, and it all

167
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 4: happens in real time. They play incredibly hard and physical

168
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 4: like uh you know, it's probably the one thing that

169
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 4: jumps out on the tape above the scheme is just

170
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 4: how hard they play, and you've got to try to

171
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 4: match that in all three phases otherwise the attrition of

172
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: a game and uh well will take its course on

173
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 4: you over time. And you've got to find a way

174
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 4: to possess the football and definitely better than we have

175
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 4: this year. Keep that offense off the field, try to

176
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 4: churn out some plays and some tough yards against maybe

177
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 4: the best defense in football, and then you got to

178
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 4: finish with points. You got to possess it. You can't

179
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 4: turn it over and give them easy path paths to points,

180
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 4: which is the number one way to let these guys

181
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 4: come in here and get a win, which is what

182
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 4: we're going to fight, fight like crazy to make sure

183
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 4: it does not happen.

184
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 2: And Kevin So for Monday Night Football and the Niners,

185
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 2: I mean, we we at this stage of the equation

186
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 2: don't exactly know who's going to play. But like Kyle,

187
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,599
Speaker 2: you like you may start with Deebo, Samuel McCaffrey, I

188
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 2: you kittle all these high enders, but I mean use

189
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 2: checks unbelievably key to what they do, right, because everything

190
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: he does is one hundred miles per hour and he

191
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: hits hard.

192
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 4: Yep, He's normally when you watch some of their real

193
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 4: explosive runs, he's normally the block that springs the play.

194
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 4: He's normally at the point of attack, whether it's you know,

195
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 4: fitting up on a linebacker on the second level. Sometimes

196
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 4: he's blocking some of the bigs you know, on the edges,

197
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 4: which allows them to have unbelievable angles back against the

198
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 4: rest of your defense. And then just when you start

199
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 4: worrying about all that, he's a major part of their

200
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 4: play action pass game because they truly marry their running

201
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 4: the pass as well as anybody, So you really have

202
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 4: to be sound about what your plan is to obviously

203
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 4: attack that run game and try to limit their explosives

204
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 4: and their ability to just kind of churn out yards

205
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 4: all the way down the field. And the second you

206
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 4: commit too much to that run game is when the

207
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 4: explosives happen and the ball can get thrown over your head.

208
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: A couple more for the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings,

209
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell on x's and o's courtesy of the men

210
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 2: so to the lottery, and we mentioned it earlier, beat up

211
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 2: or not with some of their high end skill guys,

212
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 2: it's always important to start fast.

213
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 3: We hear it here and everywhere, but.

214
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 2: Specifically in this game with your crowd awful win, I

215
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 2: mean starting fast and jumping this high this very good team,

216
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: I mean is it is it shared or or do

217
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: you push on that more into this game than usual game.

218
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 4: We've really been trying to really emphasize getting off to

219
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 4: fast starts.

220
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 3: Size is the word I was looking for.

221
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 4: And then and then really just the response when things

222
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 4: inevitably won't you know, always go our way and it's

223
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 4: funny shape ball. Things are going to happen. We've got

224
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 4: to control what we can, which is our technique of

225
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 4: how we carry the football, how we you know, try

226
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 4: to deploy our players to maximize offensively our chances of

227
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 4: having success. And then defensively, it's about tackling, it's about

228
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 4: running to the ball, it's about setting edges in the

229
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 4: run game and playing the cutbacks and simple things that

230
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 4: you've got to make come to life every single play

231
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 4: against a team like this, our crowd right there with us.

232
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 4: Hopefully we get them some things to be excited about

233
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 4: early and then it's going to be an absolute dogfight

234
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 4: all the way to the very end. We know that

235
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 4: against this team. That's what happens when you take on

236
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 4: a team that has been right at the top of

237
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 4: the NFC for the better part of the last three

238
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 4: four or five years now because of how well coached

239
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 4: they are, and they do have a pretty spectacular roster

240
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 4: of players as well.

241
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 2: Generally speaking, what do they ask of brock Purty.

242
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 4: You know, I think the narrative is it's easy to

243
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 4: think Kyle and this run game and players around him.

244
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 4: But what I see as a guy playing quarterback at

245
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 4: a really high level, throwing with anticipation, seeing the field,

246
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 4: making some critical plays on some third downs, to extend

247
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 4: drives and let them get back into what they want

248
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 4: to be offensively on those early downs. And he's consistently

249
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 4: done it basically every game he's played since getting the

250
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 4: opportunity to be in there. So he's a challenge. He's

251
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 4: in complete control of Kyle's offense and what they're trying

252
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 4: to do, So you got to try to make him uncomfortable.

253
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 4: You try to try to the formula for a guy

254
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 4: like Brock Purdy's no different than playing any other quarterback

255
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,719
Speaker 4: in this league. Try to make them uncomfortable, try to

256
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 4: make them feel like they've got to force some balls

257
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 4: into some tight windows, and then can you make the

258
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 4: play tips and overthrows. We saw it last weekend in Chicago.

259
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 4: It'll be important that we try to see that a

260
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 4: few more times this weekend at us Bank Stadium.

261
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 2: And lastly, by the way, the forty nine ers do

262
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: have a defense, and Nick Bosa happens to be pretty good.

263
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 2: But middle linebacker Fred Warner is he's a tough customer,

264
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: isn't he.

265
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 4: He's I mean, as far as a guy that the

266
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 4: green dot players, which you know, for fans at home,

267
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 4: the green dot means he runs the whole defense, communicates,

268
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 4: gets the call from the sideline, and then that's just

269
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 4: the start for Fred Warner. I mean, he will diagnose plays,

270
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 4: he will check them. You'll see him making you know

271
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 4: a lot of hand signals to get them in and

272
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 4: out of calls into different defenses. They've really equipped him

273
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 4: with the ability to kind of run the show and

274
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 4: have the keys to that whole thing. Green Law is

275
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 4: a really good player. Right next to him, Tafongo's really

276
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 4: come into his own as one of the premier safeties

277
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 4: in football. And then Bosa Armstead. You know, the list

278
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 4: goes on and on, hard Graves and yeah, they just

279
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 4: when you thought they had everything they needed up front,

280
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 4: they go out and add him as well. But you

281
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 4: have to have a plan, and you have to have

282
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 4: a plan to account for Bosa Armstead. You cannot let

283
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 4: those guys wreck the game before it gets started. And

284
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 4: then when the ball gets going and when you're able

285
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 4: to get some plays going, just when you think you're

286
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 4: sustaining a drive, that's right when you know fifty four

287
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 4: gets his hand on a ball or goes in on

288
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 4: a tackle and punches it out, and then it just

289
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 4: seems like there's a lot of gold hats around the

290
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 4: ball when that happens because they play so hard.

291
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 3: Thank you, yeah, thanks, Pa, appreciate you.

292
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell, head coach of the Minnesota Vikings, the defensive

293
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 2: pass game coordinator Deronte Jones is next on the KFAM

Speaker 3: Here is one of our favorites, Deronte Jones.

301
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: He is the defensive pass game coordinator for the Minnesota

Speaker 2: Viking set to take on the forty nine Ers this weekend.

303
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 2: We thank Kevin O'Connell for joining us as he's wont.

304
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 3: To do weekly. And before we get into.

305
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 2: Your your guys, and maybe a Niners question or two,

306
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 2: the Montreal Alouettes.

307
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 3: I mean, you were the.

308
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 2: I forgot to ask you this when I had you

309
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 2: on my KF AHO last week. What's it like being

310
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 2: a DB's coach in the Canadian Football League When the

311
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 2: receivers get to run up to the line on one

312
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 2: hundred dollars per hour.

313
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 4: Oh, it's interesting. That was fun.

314
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 3: It was good.

315
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 5: It's you have to become creative. Yeah, we try to

316
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 5: press that motion. And the biggest rule to your advantage

317
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 5: as a DV coach, as a dB there in that

318
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 5: league is you can make contact with the receiver as

319
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 5: far down the field. It's twenty yards as long as

320
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 5: any contentt as long as your shoulders are parallel to

321
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 5: the line of scrimmage, and so there's no legal contact there.

322
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 4: So we used to always use the term.

323
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 5: Take the charge. Yeah, you know, it's got to step

324
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 5: in front of it. And that's to distrupt the timing,

325
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 5: like the.

326
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 2: Old basketball is a basketball is run down to the

327
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: box and comfortably stand there playing basketball.

328
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 5: You're taking the charge.

329
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 3: Wow, that's terrific.

330
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: Finally outside of the covenant here twenty twelve to twenty fourteen,

331
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 2: assistant head coach and DB's.

332
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 3: Coach in Hawaii. Yes, what's that like? And and why?

333
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 2: I mean, you're you're at the highest level now I

334
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 2: get that, But why why did you ever leave?

335
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 4: Well? I mean, Hawaii is beautiful.

336
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 5: I was working with some great people, but then the

337
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 5: opportunity came to go to at that point Power five

338
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 5: University of Wisconsin. But no, I enjoyed my time there

339
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 5: that people were great. Yeah, I had a chance to

340
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 5: visit and spend some time in American Samoa for a

341
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 5: football camp, but no, it was phenomenal there.

342
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 2: When it comes to players not dwelling on bad moments

343
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 2: during the game, like how much coachability has to literally

344
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: go into that.

345
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 3: Like here's the example. I'm watching back the game.

346
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 2: Early in the game, a Caleb Evans whiffs on a

347
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: Justin Fields run that went for like an extra six

348
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 2: seven eight yards. Well, then he comes back and he's

349
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 2: just like hitting the bleep out everything after that. So

350
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 2: I'm thinking to myself, all right, he didn't hold on

351
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 2: to that, he didn't dwell on that.

352
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 3: But not everybody handles things like that. Is that is

353
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 3: that part of the job.

354
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 5: Yes, it is, especially to be a defensive back, not

355
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 5: just in terms of tackling, but in terms of covering

356
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 5: as well. You know, we have to use the phrase

357
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 5: one snapping clear, So whatever happens at play, you forget

358
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 5: about it. You got to move on and treat every

359
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 5: play as his own.

360
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: But some players, I mean, they'll make a mistake and

361
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 2: they'll take it too hard and then the lingers and

362
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, it's sixty over the top

363
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 2: because they're thinking about it.

364
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: Right.

365
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 5: You don't want you don't want that same play to

366
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 5: beat you twice.

367
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 2: Yes, I think he was playing that, Josh tell Us

368
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 2: And and you know, I think he played. He's played

369
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 2: for like three hundred and fifty nine snaps this year

370
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: or something like that, which is thirty one more than

371
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 2: on defense he played in his first three years. But

372
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 2: it's got he got a contract into the year and

373
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 2: captain C and it's just such a wonderful story of

374
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 2: it's a and sometimes it's overly cliched, but this rags

375
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 2: to riches type thing. I mean, how wonderful is it

376
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 2: working with Josh?

377
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 4: I love Josh.

378
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 5: I was here when we drafted Josh in twenty and

379
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,719
Speaker 5: as a rookie, to see him grow from then to now,

380
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 5: to see how his journey, how he made the team,

381
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 5: how close he was and not making the team back

382
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 5: in twenty actually he was cut and then because of

383
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 5: an injury we had to bring him back and all that,

384
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 5: and so you know, he's he has lived every moment,

385
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 5: He's cherished every moment, he's embraced the opportunity and just

386
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,719
Speaker 5: when I came back here last year to see how

387
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 5: he's matured and how valuable he's been on special teams,

388
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 5: and then he just took that last year and carried

389
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 5: over this year two and so being very versatile on

390
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 5: the defense side of the ball. I mean, he's a

391
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 5: huge part.

392
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:08,239
Speaker 4: Of what we do.

393
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 2: Uh Deronte not not you know, whether undrafted first round

394
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 2: pick like back in the day, Trey Wayns or whomever.

395
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 2: Not every dB really or at people players embrace starting

396
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 2: on special teams. They all want to get out there,

397
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 2: play receiver defense, the whole thing. But when you do

398
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: start that way, do you find it helps corners or

399
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 2: dbs with their tackling for when they get an opportunity

400
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 2: to go full time defense.

401
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 5: One hundred percent, just to be able to tackle in space.

402
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 5: You know, especially team there's a lot of space out

403
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 5: there and you can come to balance and down shift,

404
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 5: drop your body weight. It definitely carries over to the

405
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 5: defense side of the ball.

406
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 2: Andrew Booth Junior got some got some run and got

407
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 2: some reps in the game against the Bears. When with Andrew,

408
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 2: because there's been an argerous journey due to due to injury.

409
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,439
Speaker 2: When when he is at his very best, which you

410
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 2: would see more than anybody else, Like, what does he

411
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 2: do really well?

412
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 5: He's physical, you know, you know, he has that smile,

413
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 5: he's you know, it lights up the room. But Booth

414
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 5: is all about his physicality, getting hands on guys. He

415
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 5: can tackle well, he can get off blocks, he can

416
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 5: see the ball out with the vision. So that's the

417
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 5: one thing he brings to our room.

418
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 2: It's just a physicality and cam buying them into the

419
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 2: weak And still may be the case. I had the

420
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 2: most tackles of any defensive back in the National Football League.

421
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 2: Is that a good thing because like inherently you think, okay,

422
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: well people might be getting back into the secondary.

423
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.

424
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 5: For him and what we're asking him to do and

425
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 5: where we're asking him to make those tackles, yep. You know,

426
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 5: it's not like it's twenty thirty yards down field. So

427
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 5: it's different when you see a defensive back making those

428
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 5: many tackles, you kind of think, wow, there's a lot

429
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 5: of big plays or explosives, but it's really not. You know,

430
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 5: he's making those plays within seven eight yards of a

431
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 5: lot of scrimmage. He's triggered on those bubble screens in

432
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 5: the perimeter game. So I like how fast he's playing,

433
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 5: and he had to get his body ready for the type.

434
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 3: Of toll was going to take.

435
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, against the Niners, a very physical team overall, even

436
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 2: more so with the Niners. I mean you you you

437
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: might have one of the happiest rooms that Winter Loss

438
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 2: that I've ever seen all my years here. I mean

439
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 2: you talk about Booth and the smile, and I'm on

440
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 2: the same bus with him, you know, from the airport

441
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 2: into the stadium.

442
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 3: He's always happy. Mittellis cam bining them. He's a super

443
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 3: happy guy. I mean, you join his.

444
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,200
Speaker 5: Guys in that room, right, Yeah, I'm fortunate I don't

445
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 5: have any knuckleheads over there.

446
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 2: Lastly, when it comes to the forty nine ers, just

447
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 2: from a cursory standpoint with your guys DB's and we

448
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 2: know rush to coverage and all that matters, but like,

449
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 2: what are some keys for your guys in this game.

450
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 5: Well, you have to know where Debo is at all times,

451
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 5: and Kittle and McCaffrey, and now you got to know

452
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 5: where those guys are at all the times, and you know,

453
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 5: the forty nine is do a wonderful job of putting them.

454
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 3: In various places.

455
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: You know.

456
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 5: It's similar to what we do defensely in terms of

457
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 5: they're not really positioned based. They're just exes and they

458
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 5: can line up anywhere and play any spots on the field.

459
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 5: So they create a challenge that way. So we just

460
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 5: have to be locked in and be aware, and they

461
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 5: just play physical. It's going to come down to the

462
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 5: most physical team.

463
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 3: You're awesome, man, Thank you, Shay.

464
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:15,560
