1 00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:01,880 Speaker 1: You're still mute to Bob. 2 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 2: Hey, Cam, how you doing. 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: I'm good. I can always count on you, no worries. 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate that. 5 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: I don't want to leave you. I don't want to 6 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,600 Speaker 1: even buy your lonesome. That's right. 7 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 2: He obviously really difficult conditions. And you guys who had 8 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 2: to deal with pretty rough conditions now twice in three games. 9 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 2: How do you think the young guys have handled them? 10 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: No, I think they've they've handed them well. 11 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 3: You know, their composure on the sidelines, you know that 12 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 3: nothing's rattling them. It's really good. You know, you don't 13 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 3: usually get this type of weather this early. You know, 14 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 3: it's usually just happens later. So it's really good, honestly 15 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,319 Speaker 3: to get these conditions early because they're definitely gonna show 16 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 3: up layer in the season. 17 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 1: And you know they've had them well. 18 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,959 Speaker 3: Working through them on the field, you know, and that's 19 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 3: why it's always, Hey, wherever the conditions are is, that's 20 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 3: what that's why we get ready to play. 21 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: So it's been really good. 22 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 3: I thought they've handled them well, you know, and they're 23 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 3: taking it a stripe for sure. 24 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 2: In Chad's case, four long field goal tries and look 25 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 2: like on a couple of them, and Bill alluded to 26 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 2: having a cleaner off oration. Maybe the staff was a 27 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 2: bit uncharacteristically high on a couple in those conditions. Uh, 28 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 2: you know, is that are those anomalies or those you know, 29 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: how do you guys address that particular issue coming off 30 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 2: of that game? 31 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, we've guys just continue to work get cleaner operations there, 32 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 3: whether it's the balls being whether it's the paint honestly 33 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 3: on the field that's actually getting on the footballs and 34 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 3: not changing out the football is in time, you know, 35 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 3: because the paint sticks to them. 36 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: The paint was slick. 37 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 3: You know, you could see with the rain all that's 38 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 3: new paint out on the field. So all those little 39 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 3: things leader to a slickball. But I thought all three 40 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 3: of those guys handled the situations the way it was. 41 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 3: We'll keep building on and then you'll work on having 42 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 3: x you know, perfect operations going forward. 43 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's the best question. Sometimes, you know, 44 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: you take the play clock down. In the case of 45 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: the long staffer, how much can can he pressure the 46 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 2: referees or at least you know, how much conversation goes on, Hey, 47 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: can you the referee the can you replace the ball 48 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: or you know, when they take the top off of 49 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: the ball before snapping. 50 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: Poor conditions. 51 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you try to keep the ball in there as 52 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: long as you can. You try to tell the official 53 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 3: like hey, look, until we're getting ready to prost the ball, 54 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 3: you know, keep the towel on the ball. But obviously 55 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 3: once they get ready to play and they signal ready 56 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 3: for play, they've got it back out of there. So 57 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 3: depending on the cadence, you know, you may be snapping 58 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 3: it quick or you may be trying to change it 59 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: up and be out there a little bit longer. So 60 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 3: you know, Also it depends on the wind and the 61 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 3: rain there how long you may want to stay out 62 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 3: there on the ball. 63 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: So all those things are discussed. 64 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 3: But the more time you can keep the official covering 65 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 3: the football, you know, obviously that helps keep the ball dry. 66 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: I want to ask you as well about a couple 67 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 2: of guys that play extensively on defense and as well 68 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: special teams, Jabrill Peppers and Kyle Dugger. You had your 69 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: roll back there rotating a punt returner on Sunday. Kyle's 70 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: back there is a kick return and does a lot 71 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: of different things, both of them on all your units. 72 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 2: How do you describe their attitude and the impact they 73 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 2: have on special teams. 74 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 3: I think the best way to describe them is a 75 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 3: team first. Football players. You know, they do anything you ask, 76 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 3: whether it's you know, go down and cover on a punt, 77 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 3: return a kick, go back there, return a punt rush, 78 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 3: you know, field goal block. You ask those two guys 79 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: to do anything, and that's what the team here is 80 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 3: built on, is guys like whatever you need them to do. 81 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 3: They want to put the team first, and that's what 82 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 3: leads to a successful team. So I can't say enough 83 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 3: about those two guys in particular. They do everything you ask, 84 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 3: whether there's meetings, extra time on the field, trying to 85 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: make sure the techniques are right because they're in defensive meetings, 86 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 3: so it may be a quick little two minute walk 87 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 3: through on the side or something like that. So those 88 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 3: two guys go over and beyond. Can't spig enough about 89 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 3: those two guys. They are great football players, great guys also, 90 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 3: which you know helps you any time you have great 91 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 3: people such as Kyle and Pep, you know that want 92 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: to win. They want to do everything they can to 93 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 3: help the team win. It's you know, it makes you 94 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 3: my job a little bit easier. You got two great 95 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: football players that are all in helping them with the 96 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: kicking game, and one out there and playing in a 97 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: great force on defense. 98 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: I know Kyrie is waiting. 99 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: I just want to sneak in one more if I can. 100 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: About those two guys, both have had extensive returning experience 101 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: in their careers, in Kyle's case mostly at the college 102 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 2: level and Jabrill after the first game he had a 103 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 2: big block out of Montgomery kickoff return. He's mentioned that 104 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 2: having been back there himself and been in a return 105 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 2: and role, he wants to lead the way for the 106 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: guy who's back there behind him. Now, does that help 107 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 2: their their awareness, whether it's Kyle's you know it's a 108 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 2: jammer on the return, or Jabrill you know it's one 109 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: of the upmn on a kickoff return. From from your 110 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: point of. 111 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 3: View, yeah, I think anytime you have a guy that 112 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 3: can have the vision like a returner and see the 113 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 3: see the run alley and make his blocks, and he 114 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: kind of is visioning as he's going through a run 115 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 3: alley or knows where to put the particular coverage player 116 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 3: because he knows kind of in the back of his mind, 117 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 3: like what would I be thinking tracking the fly of 118 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 3: the ball, if your DP knowing where he's going to 119 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 3: be set up for timing purposes, all that stuff goes 120 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 3: into it. So when you have extra ball handlers that are, 121 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 3: like you said, outside on the perimeter blocking or back 122 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 3: deep blocking from the returners, that's valuable for sure. You know, 123 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 3: you got guys getting seeing the ball, so the timing 124 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 3: goes into it. So again, the extra more guys you 125 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 3: have ball handling the balls. 126 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: Why we do so much. 127 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 3: During the spring and training camp of eight seven six 128 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: As many guys call a punt in high school or college, 129 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 3: you know we're going to put you back there just 130 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: you know, just to have all those guys get reps 131 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 3: for sure. 132 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:32,679 Speaker 1: Kevin, thanks again, Thanks Bob. Next question from Karie Thompson. Hey, Cam, 133 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 1: how's it going good, car? How are you doing doing well? 134 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: Doing well? 135 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: Just curious how have things changed on your end with 136 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: Marcus Jones' injury. 137 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: How has that been different for you guys in the 138 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: return game. 139 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, Marcus obviously was a tremendous talent, you know, 140 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 3: but as far as changing things, you know, we've repped 141 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 3: guys throughout the preseason, throughout training camp, and you know, 142 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 3: we get guys reps for situations like you gotta have 143 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 3: the next guy ready, you gotta have the third and 144 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 3: the fourth guy ready, especially at returner. You know, it's 145 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 3: kind of like there's one guy whether it's kick, turnpole return, 146 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 3: but if he goes down, who's the next guy. So 147 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 3: you know, Pep's done a great job obviously for his 148 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: last game, obviously with Pop as well back Deep. 149 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: So we'll continue to work those guys. 150 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 3: Schematically, you know, we're doing things similar because everybody would 151 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 3: put back there you have trust in. So we're never 152 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 3: gonna put a guy on the field that we don't 153 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 3: think is going to be an explosive playmaker. So schematically, 154 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 3: things kind of just keep running and rolling along. It's 155 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 3: kind of like the next guy up, I guess the 156 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 3: best way to phrase it Forrest in the return game. 157 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 3: But you know, all those guys got tremendous faith in 158 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 3: them back there Deep, you know. 159 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: And handing the ball for us. Awesome, Thanks appreciate it, 160 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: Thank you all right, that looks like all the questions, 161 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: but today, thank you very much, KEM.
