<v Speaker 1>on the role for prime time. It's some one of

0:00:06.080 --> 0:00:08.600
<v Speaker 1>that football matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals and Logan and

0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:11.560
<v Speaker 1>I talks tickets to a win over Cincinnati.

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:13.160
<v Speaker 2>All that more starts now.

0:00:21.560 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back into the game plan, Commanders family, Welcome in

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:26.800
<v Speaker 1>our freeless leader head coach Dan Quinn. First things first,

0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:28.400
<v Speaker 1>congratulations on.

0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:29.680
<v Speaker 2>The first way Yeah.

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:32.879
<v Speaker 1>The Commander's head coach first home game as well. Man,

0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:35.040
<v Speaker 1>how great was that environment and getting that win at home?

0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? It was really cool. Man. I really wanted that

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 2>for the players, you know, and then to also have

0:00:40.520 --> 0:00:43.040
<v Speaker 2>it be a division win at home and have that

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:46.559
<v Speaker 2>first experience with them as a division win. It was awesome. Man.

0:00:46.560 --> 0:00:48.080
<v Speaker 2>It was really cool to have the locker room and

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 2>be in that. It was awesome.

0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:52.839
<v Speaker 3>Coach, you know, obviously, like momentum is the thing they

0:00:52.840 --> 0:00:54.680
<v Speaker 3>talk about at the lower levels of football. Do you

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean you've coached football for a long time. Do

0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 3>you find that's also something that happens with NFL teams

0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 3>kind of getting a win and then you can kind

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:02.640
<v Speaker 3>of parlay it into another one.

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't know if it's momentum I may use,

0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 2>but sometimes a team that's new and building together, there's

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 2>probably a confidence element that goes into that because you

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.440
<v Speaker 2>have to keep improving and keep working and so the

0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, progress doesn't happen like in these big that

0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 2>happens to these big bursts, So like another jump will happen,

0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:22.600
<v Speaker 2>another jump will happen, and so we just got to

0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 2>keep working that. But I do think there's some momentum.

0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 2>I do think there's some confidence that does get when

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:29.400
<v Speaker 2>you get the wins, and you have to make sure

0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:33.240
<v Speaker 2>you're continuing to improve upon those and coach moving forward.

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Primetime Monday Night Football will be taking on the Cincinnati

0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Bengals out in Cincinnati. Now they've also a slow start,

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.199
<v Speaker 1>but they showed signs of their old steff against Kansas City.

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>How do you slow down this high powered offense, particularly

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Jamar Chase.

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, both he They've got a really explosive offense. They

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.720
<v Speaker 2>have a unique combination you know talking about with Joe.

0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 2>Not only is he accurate and can process quickly and

0:01:57.240 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 2>put it to the right spot, he's also tough as nails,

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 2>and so you've got to rush, You've got to be

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:04.680
<v Speaker 2>able to affect a quarterback like him, So you can't

0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, have those decisions you know, as quickly and

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:09.440
<v Speaker 2>as easily to go. But we know it to be

0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.639
<v Speaker 2>a fight, but we'll be ready for that as well.

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Coach, you talked about, you know, kind of the rush

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:15.640
<v Speaker 3>plan to kind of you know, with Joe Burrow, you

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:16.799
<v Speaker 3>probably got to do a million things.

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:17.840
<v Speaker 2>You probably got to change.

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 3>Coverage structure, You've got to probably rush well, Like, is

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.639
<v Speaker 3>there something specifically with him? You're like, man, we got

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:25.239
<v Speaker 3>we just got to kind of pull everything on the

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 3>on the table for him because he's such a talented

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 3>football player.

0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:29.960
<v Speaker 2>I think you have to make sure one we have

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:31.880
<v Speaker 2>to do what we do well. You know, if you

0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 2>go into a game plan and doing things you're not

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>accustomed to or not ready to do, that could backfire

0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:40.920
<v Speaker 2>on you as well. So number one, having disguises that

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:42.560
<v Speaker 2>is part of what we do and how we play,

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:45.799
<v Speaker 2>showing one thing, playing another, and then having the ability

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, to win on third down. I think that

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:49.680
<v Speaker 2>logan is gonna be one of the real factors in

0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:51.840
<v Speaker 2>this game. You know, to give the ball back to

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 2>our offense to get into that space, because if they're

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:57.640
<v Speaker 2>able to continue to convert on some third downs. That's

0:02:57.680 --> 0:02:59.880
<v Speaker 2>a hard place to keep going in that way.

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, And you know, I was talking to some fans recently.

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 3>They're like, oh, Jean Jamar Chase is so good one,

0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:06.000
<v Speaker 3>it's just bracket them the whole time. And you know,

0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:08.239
<v Speaker 3>you try to explain it, but I'm not a super

0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 3>intelligent defensive guy. But can you explain to a fan

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 3>sure why it might not be a good idea to

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 3>bracket Jamar Chase every play.

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 2>So if you bracket somebody in and out. In other words,

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 2>let's say you know we were going to bracket you,

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 2>that's afer.

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 3>You wouldn't do that in real life, but you would.

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:29.200
<v Speaker 2>For this exercise, we will. That's what you'd call like

0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 2>an in and out and so where you could be

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:34.560
<v Speaker 2>vulnerable on that straight through and so now you go

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:36.520
<v Speaker 2>take a vertical shot and you're expecting them to go

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.760
<v Speaker 2>in and out. And so a bracket's really good for

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 2>like the low red zone, where you have, you know,

0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 2>the twelfth defender who is the goal line behind you.

0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 2>That's a good thing. When you're out in the middle

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 2>of the field, you can't quite do it in that

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 2>same fashion. So sometimes a double team in that one

0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 2>might be a high low and so can you rip

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 2>somebody across? So it's not just as easy as you know, hey,

0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:58.120
<v Speaker 2>put a double team on them. And sometimes when a

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 2>player's outside, you can play zone, but get your hands

0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>on somebody. So it's it's more of the disruptive thought.

0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:07.400
<v Speaker 2>And oftentimes logan a double or a bracket or you know,

0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 2>the things you're referring to can also force a throw,

0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, to go to another player, and you've got

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 2>to stand up strongly against them as well.

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:17.760
<v Speaker 1>And coach, I've got to imagine the interior pass rus

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:19.960
<v Speaker 1>is a huge part of success for us against the

0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:22.440
<v Speaker 1>Cincinnati Bengals. How do you scheme to get Dron Payne

0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 1>and Jonathan Allen goling in this game?

0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:26.960
<v Speaker 2>I think you have to create some passing opportunities also,

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, because if you're on first and second down,

0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 2>there's some runs and play passes are a lot like run.

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 2>So like, for instance, you're selling a hard run play

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:39.480
<v Speaker 2>action fake, there's four sets of hands on Doran and

0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 2>John and so that's different. You know, that's a hard

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.440
<v Speaker 2>you know you're getting double team essentially, but when you

0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:49.160
<v Speaker 2>are in longer passing and more obvious passing scenarios. Now

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 2>you can get vertical and find some one on ones

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:53.479
<v Speaker 2>and some matchups. So that's why I think it's going

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 2>to be important to create some passing scenarios. That way,

0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:59.359
<v Speaker 2>these guys can get vertical and do their thing. But

0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 2>if it's in the smaller neighborhoods, you know, they do

0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:06.120
<v Speaker 2>their scouting too. You know, they don't let these players

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:08.400
<v Speaker 2>ruin the game, and so we've got to also win

0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 2>around them.

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 3>It's I'm really got you said that, because like fans

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.279
<v Speaker 3>don't always understand that, you know, like down and like

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 3>you have to earn the opportunity to rush the passer

0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:18.400
<v Speaker 3>right right, If we're not good on first and second down,

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:21.120
<v Speaker 3>it's second and three, like, they can do whatever they want.

0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:23.560
<v Speaker 3>But if it's third and ten, third and ten or

0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:25.800
<v Speaker 3>second and ten, like, the opportunity is there for us

0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:26.880
<v Speaker 3>to pin hers back and go get that.

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 2>That's right, and so how quickly does the ball get out?

0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 2>All those things are a big factor. But by and large,

0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:34.359
<v Speaker 2>we've got to find some spots to put them and

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 2>see if we can create some matchups. But that's why

0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 2>I thought the third down is such a big factor

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 2>in this game because those are some chances where we

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.440
<v Speaker 2>can get those guys up the field and get really rocking.

0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:45.600
<v Speaker 1>And a big part of slowing down this offense is

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:48.800
<v Speaker 1>playing complimentary football and controlling the ball offensively ourselves. How

0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:50.600
<v Speaker 1>to be Robin Austin Eckler helping.

0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:53.080
<v Speaker 2>That, well, they help a lot because it's not just

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.240
<v Speaker 2>in the run game, but it's in the passing game

0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:58.000
<v Speaker 2>as well. And so when you're at the end of

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.719
<v Speaker 2>the game, you'd like to be a b of fifty

0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:04.159
<v Speaker 2>in runs and completions. And so in the last game

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 2>we were, I think we were at fifty eight. And

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.919
<v Speaker 2>so if you get to that spot, you're now controlling

0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.680
<v Speaker 2>some time of possessions because of the runs, because of

0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:15.080
<v Speaker 2>the completion. So for if you were defending us and

0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:17.480
<v Speaker 2>you played a really light box and you were going

0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:19.600
<v Speaker 2>to defend all the receivers, you may lean on the

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 2>runs more. So the runs might be higher. If somebody

0:06:23.440 --> 0:06:26.039
<v Speaker 2>was really hell bent on, you know, down in for

0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 2>the run, there might be some opportunities for some quick

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 2>game and completions to move the ball down the field.

0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:35.520
<v Speaker 2>So having a balance is really the most effective way

0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>to control the time of possession, because if you're just

0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:41.840
<v Speaker 2>one way only you know, all drop back pass or

0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 2>all run game. You know, those can be stopped. But

0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:48.000
<v Speaker 2>when you have the element of both, that's when if

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 2>you find that sweet spot, that's the secret sauce. Yeah.

0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.520
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely. And the other thing it's I find interesting is

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:55.000
<v Speaker 3>like when you look at Kansas City the area. We're

0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:58.440
<v Speaker 3>on the ball pretty effectively against Cincinnati, but it's NFL football,

0:06:58.520 --> 0:06:59.599
<v Speaker 3>you know what I'm saying, Like they're going to come

0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:01.760
<v Speaker 3>in with a plan, like how do you keep those

0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 3>how do you anticipate what they're going to do, you know,

0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:06.200
<v Speaker 3>and not kind of overreach yourself and kind of get

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:07.120
<v Speaker 3>out of what you want to do well.

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 2>Number one logan, you always have to be ready to adjust,

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 2>and so if you have balance, then you can. They're

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:16.600
<v Speaker 2>playing a certain way, like nobody waits till halftime to

0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:19.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, make halftime adjustments like those. If you're waiting

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 2>until then, you're going to get your ass kicked. You know,

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.200
<v Speaker 2>you have to be able to adjust quickly. Hey, they

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.680
<v Speaker 2>want to play a certain way. There's more blitz this game.

0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.840
<v Speaker 2>There's less splitz, there's loading the box. Those are the

0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 2>things that you want to keep track of, especially early

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.640
<v Speaker 2>on and sometimes just by the uniqueness of your play

0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 2>you may force you know, somebody to adjust differently. And

0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 2>so that's a little bit of the you know, the

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 2>coaching that goes on each week in the NFL. Just

0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.800
<v Speaker 2>because what you did one week doesn't mean it's going

0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:50.320
<v Speaker 2>to be as effective. You have to be able to adjust.

0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 2>And so having balance in the run game, the play pass,

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:54.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, those are really big factors.

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:56.920
<v Speaker 1>And to get that run game going, of course, coach,

0:07:56.960 --> 0:07:59.080
<v Speaker 1>you've got to get first downs. Jayden Daniels is a

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.080
<v Speaker 1>big part of that talk about his growth in which

0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:02.640
<v Speaker 1>you want to see from him in week three.

0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, one, I love his demeanor on the sideline. If

0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:08.240
<v Speaker 2>you could have been down there right when he's about

0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.840
<v Speaker 2>to take the field, you know, for our last drive

0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 2>that ended up being the kick for a game winner.

0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 2>Man like one about wanting to get on the field

0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:19.760
<v Speaker 2>and go for it and in this poise that he has.

0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 2>And so that's a great feeling to know that your

0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.680
<v Speaker 2>quarterback in that moment is in jederary, what's the call

0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 2>or what? Man? He was like absolutely ready to go rock.

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:31.400
<v Speaker 2>So we all have a lot of confidence in him

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:35.079
<v Speaker 2>because of all the work that he's put in. So yeah,

0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>it's a really big deal. Have you seen anything like

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 2>that before? The older the younger player with that kind

0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 2>of maturity is really rare, And he just has a

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:49.960
<v Speaker 2>great poise about him in these moments. He enjoys the competing.

0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:53.240
<v Speaker 2>He's a really relentless competitor, which I love. But he

0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:56.120
<v Speaker 2>also has the joy of that of playing and competing

0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:59.120
<v Speaker 2>and doing it. And so he's going to continue and improve.

0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:02.920
<v Speaker 2>This has only been a second game, and so sometimes

0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:04.600
<v Speaker 2>outside the pocket, is he going to want to take

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:07.280
<v Speaker 2>a shot down the field? Now? He can, but you

0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:09.840
<v Speaker 2>do have to be in those experiences to learn him.

0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:14.199
<v Speaker 2>And it's excellent that he is continuing to improve as

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:14.680
<v Speaker 2>we're going.

0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you said he's a competitor and it's fun

0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.480
<v Speaker 3>to watch him every week because like the way he runs,

0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:20.520
<v Speaker 3>the way he plays a game, it's evident he wears

0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 3>on his sleeve. But I think he's got an interesting challenge,

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:25.400
<v Speaker 3>competitive challenge with Lou and Roumo this week. He's a

0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.120
<v Speaker 3>guy that when I watch him, he seems to kind

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:29.440
<v Speaker 3>of try to take away what you do well, Like

0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:31.680
<v Speaker 3>how do you get Jayden ready for some of these

0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 3>unscoted looks at Cincinnati's probably going to present. I know

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:35.880
<v Speaker 3>he studies hard, and I know that's a big part of.

0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 2>It, and they are I've got a lot of respect

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 2>for lou and how they play. He's been just really

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:47.160
<v Speaker 2>consistently good. Yes, And like that's that's underrated. Yeah, it is,

0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.120
<v Speaker 2>because you know this team's gonna play tough. They're going

0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.120
<v Speaker 2>to be excellent in the passing game. Who's got a

0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:55.520
<v Speaker 2>long background as a defensive coach, especially in the secondary.

0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 2>He's always been rock solid in the passing game. So

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.880
<v Speaker 2>knowing the uniqueness of their coverage, of how they play,

0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:03.600
<v Speaker 2>where they deploy the people, that's a big piece of this.

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 2>But very rarely are they at a position. And now

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:09.679
<v Speaker 2>it comes down to matchups and you can win him

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:11.560
<v Speaker 2>and how do you go about him and attacking somebody's

0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:15.280
<v Speaker 2>leverage to do that. Jaden's playing our position well, not

0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:17.840
<v Speaker 2>just throwing it, so he knows when to check in

0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:19.959
<v Speaker 2>and out of runs, when to get to certain plays

0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:23.560
<v Speaker 2>and that doesn't show up on the stat sheet, but

0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:26.040
<v Speaker 2>it's a really important factor in our winning.

0:10:26.400 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 1>And as a head coach, it has to be super

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.960
<v Speaker 1>beneficial to have a leader like zach Ertz hoping not

0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:33.640
<v Speaker 1>only this offense, but a guy like Jaden Daniels come along.

0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:35.120
<v Speaker 1>What have you seen from him as a leader and

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 1>how has he helped Jayden grow quicker?

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a lot. I thought in this last game, I

0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:44.520
<v Speaker 2>thought that was a vintage Zach performance. He really was

0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:47.360
<v Speaker 2>in a very classic way. He had a ball where

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 2>it could have been intercepted or his to go, and

0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:53.320
<v Speaker 2>he just aggressively went forward down to the ground and

0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 2>came up with the catch. Plays like that are not typical,

0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 2>but he's been in so many good, additive moments that

0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.520
<v Speaker 2>when it showed up for him, he was ready for it.

0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:07.480
<v Speaker 2>And he's been an excellent leader for Jaden, an excellent

0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 2>teammate excuse me, to make sure he's getting all the

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:13.000
<v Speaker 2>support that he needs as well. And that's one of

0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:15.040
<v Speaker 2>the good things about being a part of this team.

0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:18.960
<v Speaker 2>They don't really have to worry about themselves because the

0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:22.199
<v Speaker 2>support they have from everybody else is really really strong,

0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:25.280
<v Speaker 2>and they can just look after one another in that way,

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.560
<v Speaker 2>and so that connection will continue to get stronger, stronger,

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:31.120
<v Speaker 2>not just with Jaden and Zach, but with other players

0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:31.480
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:33.800
<v Speaker 3>Did you say other players like obviously Zach's one that

0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:35.520
<v Speaker 3>comes to mind, but is there anybody else, You're like, man,

0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:37.800
<v Speaker 3>this guy's really helped bring Jade along.

0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.560
<v Speaker 2>I would say defensively. I love the connection that he

0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 2>and Wags have and so just seeing them communicate, talk

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 2>what are they seeing? Sometimes it could be as easy

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.160
<v Speaker 2>as a process, you know, getting ready for a game

0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:55.040
<v Speaker 2>and so what does that look like to go? Marcus

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:57.839
<v Speaker 2>has been a really big support of Jaden's as well,

0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 2>and so he's got some great teammates here and they

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.559
<v Speaker 2>trust him. He trusts them as well, and so when

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:08.240
<v Speaker 2>those relationships build and grow, that's a big deal. But

0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 2>our quarterback room, the coaches, the other quarterbacks, Jaden, it's

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:15.960
<v Speaker 2>very unique and they really are pulling for one another

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.720
<v Speaker 2>in the very best of ways. So it's really from

0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:22.920
<v Speaker 2>just watching it as a coach. It makes you happy

0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:26.520
<v Speaker 2>because they're finding the extra details, they're looking for things

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.680
<v Speaker 2>they you know, always nice to have somebody have your back,

0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:33.680
<v Speaker 2>and he's got a whole team that does. Coach.

0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:35.840
<v Speaker 1>We appreciate you, man, it's always fun talking to you again.

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Congratulations on that win. We cannot wait to see you

0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:40.959
<v Speaker 1>and our Burgundy and Gold hit out there for prime toon.

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:42.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we can't wait either, man.

0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Sir Commands family, We know you are enjoying the game plan. However,

0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:52.760
<v Speaker 1>if you want to see coach and logan Paul said

0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 1>break down plays in the film room, you could check

0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.600
<v Speaker 1>that out on the Commander's YouTube page.

0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back Command his family. Now this is ticket to

0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 2>a win.

0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:05.280
<v Speaker 1>It's all about matchups.

0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Some matchups.

0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:08.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll let me know what you're thinking. Okay, First one,

0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Joe Witt Jr. Slowing down wide receiver Jamar Chase.

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:14.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad that we picked Joe Witt Junior because he's

0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:16.560
<v Speaker 3>the he's the orchestrator, the master of this defense, right

0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:18.960
<v Speaker 3>and with a player of Jamar Chase's ability, you need everybody,

0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 3>all eleven guys on defense to account for this guy.

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 3>So what's the plan do we How do we rush

0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:25.200
<v Speaker 3>the pass or how do we make Joe Burrow uncomfortable?

0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:26.880
<v Speaker 2>What kind of coverage cont do we play?

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:28.760
<v Speaker 3>Do we bracket a guy like this because he's that good,

0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:30.439
<v Speaker 3>that's how That's what we need to do to kind

0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:31.760
<v Speaker 3>of take him off the table. And I think Joe

0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:32.640
<v Speaker 3>Whitt is definitely gonna be.

0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Up to the challenge.

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:34.640
<v Speaker 2>A lot easier said than done.

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Our next match up, Jonathan Allen Dran Payne getting after

0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:39.360
<v Speaker 1>mister Blonde Joe Burrow.

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.840
<v Speaker 3>I love this one, man, because these guys everyone's talking about, Okay,

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:43.040
<v Speaker 3>they rust the passion. I want to look at the

0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:45.640
<v Speaker 3>Bengals offensive line. I think the guards specifically struggle in

0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 3>pass protection and they're not going to do the max protection,

0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.680
<v Speaker 3>max the max protection that the Giants did. They're going

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:52.200
<v Speaker 3>to kind of put those five guys on an old

0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:53.800
<v Speaker 3>say when they're when you're one on ones, and I

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:55.800
<v Speaker 3>think these guys can win one on ones and Joe Burrow,

0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:59.000
<v Speaker 3>while being a special talent, quarterbacks cannot throw under pressure

0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:00.760
<v Speaker 3>and they I think these guys get done this week.

0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Get in Joe Burrow dirty the next one of Jad

0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:06.520
<v Speaker 1>and Daniels going against their single caller, they have middle lineback.

0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think this is a really good one because

0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:10.880
<v Speaker 3>like he's a guy with a skill set. Obviously he

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:13.480
<v Speaker 3>can run, he can throw, and what can they do

0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:15.640
<v Speaker 3>defensively to kind of upset them? And I think that

0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.280
<v Speaker 3>all starts with Logan here, and what I mean by

0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:19.800
<v Speaker 3>that is, can you get the guys lined up? Can

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:21.160
<v Speaker 3>they get the defense called?

0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:22.200
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be a really.

0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:23.960
<v Speaker 3>Interesting chess match between these two guys, because if you

0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:25.480
<v Speaker 3>watch the New York game. They put a lot on

0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 3>Jane Datis in terms of checking plays versus coverage structure.

0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:29.400
<v Speaker 2>So I can't wait to watch these two go to

0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:29.920
<v Speaker 2>war Man.

0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:32.040
<v Speaker 1>What tests these first three weeks have had for Jayden

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Daniels then, Oh my god, because we've seen a world

0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:36.160
<v Speaker 1>station yeah.

0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 2>Going against their pass rush. Yeah.

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:40.720
<v Speaker 3>So Trey Hendrickson is an absolute monster. He's got a

0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:42.240
<v Speaker 3>thirty three percent win rate. And just to give you

0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.080
<v Speaker 3>some context, when Deron Paid had eleven sacks, his was nine.

0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 3>So he is winning a lot of one on one

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.920
<v Speaker 3>in pass protection. Cornelius Lucas has done a great job,

0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:52.120
<v Speaker 3>Brandon Coleman's been excellent in the run game. But this

0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:54.120
<v Speaker 3>is a whole new challenge for them. So I do
