WEBVTT - Kyle Shanahan Evaluates Ravens Defense Heading into #BALvsSF | Press Pass

0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:01.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, the injuries for today.

0:00:02.120 --> 0:00:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Eric Armstead foot knee won't practice, Dwelly ankle won't practice,

0:00:06.680 --> 0:00:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Hardgrave hamstring won't practice. Orren Burke's knee won't practice, Elijah

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Mitchell knee won't practice, Juwan Jennings concussion, won't practice. Cleveland

0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:17.320
<v Speaker 2>Ferrell ankle will be limited.

0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:18.600
<v Speaker 1>That's it.

0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 3>You have any sense of maybe the game status.

0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 1>For Nope, I don't.

0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:29.720
<v Speaker 4>How did.

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:33.279
<v Speaker 1>He's in the protocol.

0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:37.839
<v Speaker 5>What's the thing that stood out to you when you

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:41.199
<v Speaker 5>start looking at the Ravens defense and what they do

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:45.199
<v Speaker 5>to kind of put you guys in situations. I mean

0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:46.960
<v Speaker 5>you look at the numbers, so usually the first thing

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:48.559
<v Speaker 5>you see and you see how great their numbers are.

0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:50.640
<v Speaker 5>Then you turn on the tape and it looks just

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.760
<v Speaker 5>like their numbers. I mean, they're really good against the run,

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:57.840
<v Speaker 5>really good against the past, extremely sound coverages, they know

0:00:57.880 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 5>how to get after it with pressures, they know how

0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:00.560
<v Speaker 5>to get after it front four.

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:05.520
<v Speaker 1>So really good defense from Kyle Hamilton's specifically, versatility, the

0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>way they can use the different spots.

0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 5>I mean, just knowing the talent coming out of college

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 5>and now watching him in their scheme and just seeing

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 5>how give him a football players and any time me

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.160
<v Speaker 5>that long and you can run gives you a bunch

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:18.759
<v Speaker 5>of advantages. But he also fits into their mentality without

0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:22.040
<v Speaker 5>physical he plays and has the size to do a

0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:24.360
<v Speaker 5>lot of things, but also has the feet and length

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:24.679
<v Speaker 5>to cover.

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Been a while since.

0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 3>You've seen Lamar, but maybe a different scheme.

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:30.200
<v Speaker 1>It seems like they're using more different ways.

0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:32.560
<v Speaker 3>How was he maybe evolved in what they're trying to

0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 3>do with him now?

0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 5>I mean it was a while since we played against him,

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:38.000
<v Speaker 5>but seeing him over the years, I mean, it's still

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:41.560
<v Speaker 5>the same run scheme looks very similar. I think they

0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:43.959
<v Speaker 5>just mix in a few more more passes, more drop

0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:46.200
<v Speaker 5>back plays and things. And I think he's always been

0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:48.040
<v Speaker 5>good at that stuff. So he's really is good at

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 5>whatever they decide to do. It's he's a problem whatever.

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 1>So would prepare for Lamar and practice who plays him.

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 1>We'll have both of our quarterbacks, so they'll try their best.

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 3>Anything Remember anything that out to you about what Divo's

0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 3>been able to do last month or or since he's

0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 3>come back from the shoulder.

0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:11.560
<v Speaker 1>That kind of just explained.

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:17.079
<v Speaker 5>Just that he's come back and gotten healthy. When Diebo's

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:20.359
<v Speaker 5>out there and constrained together practices in weeks, it's not

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.200
<v Speaker 5>our time for the ball comes this way. I mean

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 5>nothing in particular that's been different than usual. I just

0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.120
<v Speaker 5>think he's strung together a few more healthy weeks and

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:29.919
<v Speaker 5>sometimes I think, I said earlier in the year, I

0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 5>thought he had some of the best games the first

0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 5>couple of weeks, even at Pittsburgh, and the ball didn't

0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:36.239
<v Speaker 5>just go that way. And then he has some setbacks

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:37.959
<v Speaker 5>with his injuries. But he's been good here for a

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:38.440
<v Speaker 5>while and.

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>This came his way.

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:46.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, their receivers, they have four pretty good receivers. What

0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:48.920
<v Speaker 3>stands out about their receivers and is there any pattern

0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:51.239
<v Speaker 3>to the usage? Is there one guy that you would

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 3>consider their number one?

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:55.320
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you always got respect for Odell and what

0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:58.120
<v Speaker 5>he's done, and but the young guy's real good too.

0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 5>So I mean they got a number of guys. See,

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 5>you know, they're not going to force it to anyone.

0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:04.920
<v Speaker 5>Lamar makes the right decisions. They've got guys who are

0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:07.560
<v Speaker 5>real good amand a man. They're really good after the catch.

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 5>So I'd say they just have a solid group overall.

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.519
<v Speaker 4>In case Chris Conley has to play on Monday, I

0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.360
<v Speaker 4>think he ran a four three five back in twenty fifteen.

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:22.119
<v Speaker 5>Is he still does he still have that level of speed.

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 4>At this point in his career.

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:23.480
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 5>I think it's like a four to three six now,

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 5>you know depends. Yeah, I know he's got it and

0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 5>we see it out there all the time.

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Chris Is. It's not just the speed though.

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:33.960
<v Speaker 5>Chris has been a real good football player for us

0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 5>and he's been ready to go anytime we've had him up.

0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:41.360
<v Speaker 1>And we'll see how it is this week. There's speeding athleticism.

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:44.040
<v Speaker 3>Do they ask the same things of rocn Smith and

0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:46.440
<v Speaker 3>Patrick Queen as you guys do form Warner and Greenlaw?

0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:46.680
<v Speaker 4>Uh?

0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>Similar?

0:03:47.200 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 5>I think there that's Those are the two guys who

0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:51.400
<v Speaker 5>jump off the tape, and I think they're the most

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 5>comparable to our guys that I've seen this year in

0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:55.920
<v Speaker 5>a couple of years. To me, those two guys make

0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 5>the defense go. They're they're big, they can run, and

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:02.760
<v Speaker 5>they can hit, and not just because they're big, because

0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 5>they their intentions are that way. You until they like

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:08.760
<v Speaker 5>playing football. They're very smart players too. They're good in coverage.

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 5>They're two of the better zone droppers in the league

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.160
<v Speaker 5>and two of the better man and man guys also,

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.160
<v Speaker 5>so as good as it gets.

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:17.080
<v Speaker 1>Difficult about facing a defense.

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 5>That has two of them, just how much room they

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:22.560
<v Speaker 5>can cover. That's what allows them to be so good

0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:24.560
<v Speaker 5>in zone. Just how good those guys are on the inside,

0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:27.159
<v Speaker 5>how much field they can take between the numbers. Takes

0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.040
<v Speaker 5>the pressure off their corners who can stay on top

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:32.400
<v Speaker 5>and take away the explosives. To me, that's one of

0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:34.040
<v Speaker 5>the reasons they lead the league in sacks because of

0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:36.000
<v Speaker 5>how good they're coverages with a bunch of good guys

0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 5>up front just allows them to do what they want.

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.000
<v Speaker 1>How much of their sacks.

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:48.159
<v Speaker 3>Are generated individually as opposed to scheme and just confusion.

0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:53.000
<v Speaker 5>I think more is individually and just sound good coverages.

0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 5>It's you know they they got. They usually have four

0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:58.760
<v Speaker 5>guys who can rush it. They'll blitz and do that

0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.160
<v Speaker 5>stuff too. The mixed up throughout the game, so the

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 5>challenges all your protections. But the hardest thing is how

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.680
<v Speaker 5>it is to get people open there when they have

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 5>seven and coverage. They're very sound, they don't mess up

0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 5>much and make you go to two, make you go

0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:15.840
<v Speaker 5>to number three, and they have all the rushers who

0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:16.720
<v Speaker 5>can get there by that time.

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Kind of a big game for Rock as far as

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:22.839
<v Speaker 1>being challenged.

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:25.640
<v Speaker 5>I think it's a big game for everybody because there's

0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:28.160
<v Speaker 5>not just one way in particular. I mean, you think,

0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:29.960
<v Speaker 5>you know they lead the league in sacks. You right

0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:33.599
<v Speaker 5>away you think about our line, and that is true

0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 5>because they have good pass rushers, But also that has

0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:38.400
<v Speaker 5>a lot to do with how good our receivers do

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:40.440
<v Speaker 5>get into their spots and getting open Brock to get

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:42.800
<v Speaker 5>in the right spots, guys not getting rerouted so they

0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:45.480
<v Speaker 5>can't get there in time. So when you play a sound,

0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 5>good defense with good players all over, it's a little

0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:57.200
<v Speaker 5>bit of everything, not real familiar. We just worked out

0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 5>a bunch of guys yesterday. I know our guys really

0:05:59.920 --> 0:06:01.920
<v Speaker 5>liked him from what they've seen on him earlier, and

0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 5>definitely loved him in the workout.

0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:05.120
<v Speaker 1>So we're low on numbers, so we had to get

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 1>him part of this practice squad and we'll see how

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:07.960
<v Speaker 1>he looks this week.

0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:11.359
<v Speaker 4>Defensive line did in the game.

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:13.719
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it was a huge challenge for him. I thought,

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:17.279
<v Speaker 5>you know that we struggled obviously in stats. I don't

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:20.719
<v Speaker 5>think it was at all all on them. Losing Kalia

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.480
<v Speaker 5>during the game really hurt because we just tired out

0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 5>a lot.

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>But I think we'll be better this week.

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:28.720
<v Speaker 3>Blocking.

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 4>I realized your dad's not like coaching in high school

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 4>or whatever, but that.

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:35.159
<v Speaker 1>Something like you say he's coach in high school.

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:37.719
<v Speaker 3>No, I said, I realized he's not like your high

0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:38.320
<v Speaker 3>school coach.

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:40.599
<v Speaker 1>Oh gotcha? I was like, I don't think he.

0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:44.839
<v Speaker 3>Is growing biography?

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 5>Would he like?

0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:50.159
<v Speaker 4>Was that something you would talk you would talk about

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 4>with him.

0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 3>Like it seems like it's just as important to him

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 3>as it is to you, Like the importance of being

0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:57.359
<v Speaker 3>all around receiver and blocking.

0:06:58.040 --> 0:06:58.719
<v Speaker 1>Definitely? Could?

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I also understand how import and it is

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:03.279
<v Speaker 5>to football, and how important it is to running the ball,

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 5>and how important it is to plays off the run.

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:10.120
<v Speaker 5>But no, that's why I could never play for myself,

0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:12.400
<v Speaker 5>or I would never play for him, because even if

0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:14.040
<v Speaker 5>I tried to block, I wasn't very good at it.

0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.400
<v Speaker 5>So you can recognize that fast when you couldn't do it.

0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 4>Line doesn't get a lot of accolades, but what have

0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.360
<v Speaker 4>What can you say about their performance this year and

0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:23.680
<v Speaker 4>what they helped you obviously do all.

0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 3>The things you need to do.

0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:27.640
<v Speaker 1>I think they've been great. I mean when you look

0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>at our whole offense.

0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 5>Just as far as running the ball and throwing the ball,

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 5>you can't do that stuff without a good old line.

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 5>You can't do that stuff without a good quarterback. You

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 5>can't do that stuff without good players that he's throwing to.

0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 5>So the success of us throughout the year so far,

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 5>there's no one group that is to me, isn't playing

0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:45.640
<v Speaker 5>at a high level.

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:48.960
<v Speaker 3>Okay, we young guys who all got time at the

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:53.040
<v Speaker 3>end of the Arizona games and they all were flying around.

0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:56.120
<v Speaker 3>What is your guy's evaluation of how come on this

0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 3>year as rookies.

0:07:58.120 --> 0:07:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean that stuff's huge.

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 5>When you can get those guys playing time, you know,

0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:05.280
<v Speaker 5>it's those guys have come on strong because they've been

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 5>ready to go, they've been working. I'm very similar to

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 5>how I talked about Jay year. But you never know

0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:12.120
<v Speaker 5>when they're gonna get thrown in the heat of the battle.

0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 5>And sometimes when you go out there, you got to

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:17.120
<v Speaker 5>learn by failing. And so when those guys can get

0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:18.800
<v Speaker 5>into these games, especially at the end of games, and

0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:21.080
<v Speaker 5>it's happened a couple of times throughout the year, Looter later.

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 5>But guys like d and stuff, they get a lot

0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:26.360
<v Speaker 5>of experience. Each time they do it, they seem better,

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:28.920
<v Speaker 5>and you know, hopefully they'll have to do it too

0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.960
<v Speaker 5>much till the future. But if that comes up, which

0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:34.360
<v Speaker 5>it could come up any day, those guys got a

0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:36.559
<v Speaker 5>little bit more experience now and they're getting better each week.

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:41.000
<v Speaker 4>There's a funny clip of Christian McCaffrey on Monday Night

0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:43.880
<v Speaker 4>Football with the Mannings about how he flopped and I

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:45.880
<v Speaker 4>don't know if you've seen it, but the fact that

0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.040
<v Speaker 4>he was willing to go to the extra mile to

0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 4>kind of try and get a penalty called for them.

0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:51.880
<v Speaker 4>Do you see that often?

0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:56.400
<v Speaker 5>And I mean I didn't see the Manning cast, but

0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.839
<v Speaker 5>every time I when you flopped first, Philly, I saw that,

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:01.079
<v Speaker 5>I thought, that's like the only thing you didn't do

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 5>very well this year. It wasn't the best flop. You

0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 5>got to be a little it can't be so obvious.

0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:13.719
<v Speaker 5>So no, not really, but yeah, you want guys to

0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 5>do that. You know a lot of touch guys after

0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.559
<v Speaker 5>the play. So sometimes guys can't see it because it

0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:20.040
<v Speaker 5>happens so fast, but they can see a reaction. But

0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 5>I don't want it to turn into the NBA too fast,

0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:27.199
<v Speaker 5>or McCaffrey should be the MVP as a former D

0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:34.160
<v Speaker 5>one wide receiver yourself that a whiteout hasn't I mean

0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 5>not because of my lame history as a player.

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:41.959
<v Speaker 1>It's I don't think.

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:43.400
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I don't even want to talk about the

0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.000
<v Speaker 5>ward because there's to lose, lose and whatever the ward is.

0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:47.160
<v Speaker 1>But it doesn't bother me.

0:09:47.440 --> 0:09:48.959
<v Speaker 5>Just you start to adjust to it and you look

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 5>at it, and it does seem like it's more quarterbacks.

0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:53.319
<v Speaker 5>Doesn't mean that a wide receiver can't, doesn't mean a

0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:57.520
<v Speaker 5>running back can't, doesn't mean a D lineman can't. If

0:09:57.600 --> 0:09:59.439
<v Speaker 5>one person voted on it, then they might do it

0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:03.400
<v Speaker 5>that way, but collectively, I don't know. I don't even

0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 5>know votes, so you hope they get it right. But

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:11.359
<v Speaker 5>you know, it doesn't matter that much to some people.

0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:18.679
<v Speaker 3>Written about how we had to do this play time,

0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:20.839
<v Speaker 3>how much of that was tied.

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 1>To run, not much, and it was just tied to

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:25.320
<v Speaker 1>just consistency of the game.

0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.079
<v Speaker 5>I can't believe how long that's stuck, because every three

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 5>weeks I got to talk about far he's come since then,

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:33.960
<v Speaker 5>which I think is kind of an insult to him.

0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:37.439
<v Speaker 5>So that's why I don't like always getting repeated. I

0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:39.599
<v Speaker 5>got to play in the COVID year. He had no

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 5>offseason when we lost like three receivers that year, and

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:45.280
<v Speaker 5>he really never came off the field. Didn't get an

0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:48.760
<v Speaker 5>off season the next year, and he was a little

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:51.439
<v Speaker 5>behind in training camp and Trent Sherfield was here that

0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:55.040
<v Speaker 5>year and he was a veteran who was ready for

0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:57.440
<v Speaker 5>training camp, and so we went into the first game

0:10:57.520 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 5>and that was how training camp went.

0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 1>And the other guy was just more consistent at that time.

0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 1>But I mean Ba wasn't doing it. It didn't.

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:06.559
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he had to do some things to get more

0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.199
<v Speaker 5>consistent to be ahead of trend at the time. But

0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.080
<v Speaker 5>that wasn't like he was in the doghouse or had

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:14.880
<v Speaker 5>to have this whole epiphany. He just that's what football is.

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.320
<v Speaker 5>You don't always you're not always ready to go as

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:20.000
<v Speaker 5>a as a rookie, sometimes you get thrown in there anyways.

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:22.280
<v Speaker 5>That can be good and it can be bad. But

0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:24.280
<v Speaker 5>that's why a lot of people have rookie slump. Sometimes

0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 5>they you learn from filing and sometimes they don't realize. Man,

0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:29.480
<v Speaker 5>I played my whole time as a rookie. That was

0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:32.199
<v Speaker 5>pretty good. Yeah it was, but you got to be

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.000
<v Speaker 5>better than the guy behind you at all times, not

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:37.800
<v Speaker 5>just potential wise, and I think came to camp a

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:40.319
<v Speaker 5>little off and that's what happened. And I think he

0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.880
<v Speaker 5>corrected that about halfway through the second game. So it's

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:44.959
<v Speaker 5>been really good since then.

0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.319
<v Speaker 3>Guys like that on a curve because.

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:59.719
<v Speaker 5>They're like, yeah, but it's it's all about Taylor was

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:01.800
<v Speaker 5>also of the pound for pounds strongest guy on the team.

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:03.920
<v Speaker 5>He's the only guy who would weighed one hundred and

0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:06.200
<v Speaker 5>sixty pounds who could bench three hundred.

0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I think he was wired, but yeah, there's STIs factors always.

0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:12.560
<v Speaker 5>That's why you got to learn the type of track

0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:15.360
<v Speaker 5>by the back, how to stay square and have no

0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:17.199
<v Speaker 5>one just goes out there and just manhandles a guy.

0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 5>You got to be tied to the guy behind you,

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.440
<v Speaker 5>and how to set people up and stuff. And also

0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 5>back then, when people were running at you straight over

0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:27.199
<v Speaker 5>just to kill you, you were allowed to cut so

0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:28.520
<v Speaker 5>they couldn't just tee off on you.

0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:30.599
<v Speaker 1>Now you just got to stand up and take it,

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:32.080
<v Speaker 1>which isn't a problem me there.

0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:34.840
<v Speaker 5>As long as you fall down and he falls down

0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:36.560
<v Speaker 5>with you, he's kicking your butt.

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:38.959
<v Speaker 1>He's not making the play. So you got to do

0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:42.000
<v Speaker 1>one or the other? All right, guys,
