1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: Early today. It's no traffic, he says. Ready Mack, I think, um, 2 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,159 Speaker 1: Brandy Gregory showing up on the with me, is that 3 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,760 Speaker 1: the same thing you dealt with training camp. It's arrested 4 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: him today pretty much. Yeah, it's just something that's um, 5 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,119 Speaker 1: you know, he's had in the pass and we're just 6 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: we're just being smart with him. You don't think it 7 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: impact is availability for a full expect Brandy to go yes, 8 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:35,319 Speaker 1: excuse me potterday, Yes, yes he's back. Good news, Yeah, 9 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: good news. Quote on the COVID list as well. Yes, 10 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 1: nothing's changed. Both guys are in the protocol. We're talking 11 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: yesterday about tax's command at the line of scrimmage. You've 12 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 1: worked with a lot of quarterbacks in your career because 13 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: they're usually a certain point into their career and that 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: you started to notice the significant shifting your mastery or 15 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: just a gradual over time. How many it's definitely something 16 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: that grows through their experience, and I think that's you know, 17 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: anytime you've had to play with the with the rookie quarterback, 18 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: you know you clearly you know build things in stages. 19 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: There's particularly certain situations you highlight more than others as 20 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 1: far as what you can do because you know, just 21 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: from my belief, you know, the offense is built around 22 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: that quarterback, so to give to give him the opportunity 23 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: to be successful. You know, it starts with a healthy 24 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: run game. So and you can just see by our 25 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: first three games this season, you know people are gonna 26 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: you know, can load up the boxer or not load 27 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: the boxer. You have to have the flexibility within your 28 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: run play to take advantage of that. So the quarterbacks 29 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: today have a lot more responsibility and run game in 30 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: those types of offenses than they probably did twenty years ago. 31 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: Mari used the word multidimensional for this offense yesterday. What 32 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: I need to buying multi dimensional is and how you 33 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: can go to playboad all the quarterback you do? Is 34 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: it more just how need personality groups you can put 35 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: out there? I think it. I think when I think 36 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: a multi dimensional, it's ability to get through the whole playbook. 37 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: You know, to be able to do the things that 38 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: you're able to install. And you know that process starts 39 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: in the spring, and you know you have the last season, 40 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: you have scheme evaluation. Then you start building build building 41 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 1: your playbook through scheme implementation. Is what we call it 42 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: and least you. And the thing is you know, to 43 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: be able to set you know that planned earlier to better. 44 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: I think it's, uh, you know, a reflection of what 45 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: do you think are your players? What do you think 46 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks at? And I think with the Maori's statement, 47 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: it's just the fact that we're able to jump pretty 48 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: you know, pretty freely A through Z and especially in 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: these adjustment these adjustment type games. You said a lot 50 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: of times there last year there's just so comparable with 51 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 1: last year. The last year was so weird. Is that 52 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: kind of the case with the offense in terms of 53 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: how far along it is? There's no comparison this year 54 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: to last. Yeah. I think the big thing is when 55 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,679 Speaker 1: I talked about no comparable last year, it's probably the 56 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: more big picture of things something because you know, offseason 57 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: or what didn't exists, the training camp is totally different, 58 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: you know, so your starting point where your team was different, 59 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: the way you practice in the first half to So 60 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: that's when I'm talking about comparables because like for some 61 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: of the simple as GPS, I don't really put a 62 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: lot of weight into how we practiced last year. I 63 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: put more weight and how I've practiced to ten years 64 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: prior to it, and even looked at the weight of 65 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 1: how they practiced in nineteen seventeen and eighteen. So so 66 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: when I mean not compared to last year, it's more 67 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: of the big picture of structural how you practice and 68 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: what you're looking to get done in this environment. But 69 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: when you talk about offensive scheme and defensive scheme, I mean, yeah, 70 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: last year counted. So I mean we had played with 71 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: a number of different quarterbacks, but there are still scheme 72 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: concepts that we lived in, so we were able to 73 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: carry forward and build off of. I think we did 74 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: the same thing on defense. I think Dan did an 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: outstanding job of trying to capture, you know, what we 76 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: felt we did well last year and pull it forward 77 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: and then build off of that, because that was the 78 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: big picture approach in the change on defense. You know, 79 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: since I got here, you go away in the game. 80 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: How much as you look at some of the young 81 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: up and coming coaches to say, when I get back in, 82 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: I want him with me that time. Frankly, I think 83 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: you're always building a coaching depth chart, you know. I 84 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: mean that's something that you know, I learned back in 85 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: early two thousands. You always you know, you know, I 86 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: had an Excel sheet with with an actual depth chart 87 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: and things like that. But I think over time, you know, 88 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: watch what's going on. You know, you can see the 89 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: influence of college football in our game in the last 90 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: ten years too, So you try to keep in you know, 91 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: keep in touch with who's who's in college and you know, 92 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: and just I think we've talked about this last week, 93 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: the resources are so much more in today's today's world, 94 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: today's NFL as far as you know, being able to 95 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: study the college game while the season is going on, 96 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: where in the old days you would. I mean there's times, 97 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, I look back in the past and you know, 98 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: you're watching USC tape, you know, in the in the 99 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: personnel valuations, you get ready for draft, and you're like, 100 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: my god, that hell of here didn't they had or 101 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: they won a national championship. Who as you're looking at 102 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: the players, you know, but then you also recognize the 103 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: schemes that they do. But I just think with the 104 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: resources and technology and you know, just really the talent 105 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: of you know, some of the young coaches that we 106 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: have on our staff, you're able to watch that stuff weekly. 107 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: Where was calling on that depth chart when you're the 108 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: year Arround was obviously near the top. The Carolina's right 109 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: number one gets the pass, I'm gonna get run. Are 110 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: they better at one or the other? It's the product 111 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: of the game, the schedule. I mean, I know, I 112 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: think you look at every game. I mean, you look 113 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: at the things. You know, you know who they played, 114 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: how they played them. So I think that when you 115 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: look at them, you know, the scoring is what I've 116 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: been most impressed with, you know, I think that's you know, 117 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: they've kept the games to a low scoring game. But 118 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: you know, um, you know, they had a couple of 119 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: injuries last week, so it'll be interesting to see which 120 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: way they go with us, you know, as far as 121 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: which way they try to tilt the defense. I mean, 122 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: I would expect more pressure in this game that we've 123 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: seen the first three three weeks, so, um, you know, 124 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: and I'm sure it'll be definitely run pressures, particularly how 125 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: we ran the ball last two weeks. So I think 126 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: they're pretty balanced. As your questions might tie into what 127 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: you've talked about the quality control guys, But how do 128 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: you prepare in the case of Henderson, the guy who 129 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: just got there Monday and you don't have to take 130 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: with him of this team. Well, you know, I'll give 131 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: him a personnel department some credit. You know, they obviously 132 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: we had the profile tapes on CJ when he came out, 133 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: and and obviously you know that's something that starts on Monday, 134 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: you know, after we recognize that he's going to be there. 135 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: And um, you know, Ben McAdoo actually worked in Jacksonville 136 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: last year, so you know then you have a personal 137 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: opinion Ben. And Ben's been a really significant help for 138 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: us just for the set of eyes and expertise that 139 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: he's been able to give on both sides of the 140 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: ball in a preliminary game plan. So all those things, 141 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: you know, factor into it. And and you know, and 142 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: I think you also got to recognize these you know, 143 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: how much is he going to play? I mean that's 144 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: you know, we're looking at that. We're you know, we'll 145 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: probably expect him to play more situational football, more, um, 146 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: you know, scheme where he's particularly in Man because you 147 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: know he hasn't been there a week. So do you 148 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: factor all those things you play Your players haven't talked 149 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: a lot about when they're running tempos saying that maybe 150 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: we're a little bit time and then we see as 151 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: hired the defenses and we're like, we can keep going. 152 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: How does the judge before going out and running simil 153 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: like that, whether the conditioning level is where you aren't it, 154 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: like you think extant, where is the game do you adjust? Well, 155 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: I think you build that. I mean I think you 156 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: start that in spring and you have an idea you know, 157 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 1: not only where your team is, on how you practice. 158 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: You know, everything's everything's uh, everything's recorded. You know, every 159 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: snap of team. You know when when we break the huddle, 160 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: when we get the lint of screamers, when the ball snapped, 161 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: every one of those snaps is recorded. So when you 162 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: talk about tempo, you talk about pace of operation, you're 163 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: talking about clean communication. Well, how do you regulate it? 164 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: You know, how do you judge it? How do you 165 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: how do you you know, support it? You do it 166 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: with facts and and so that that's that's part of 167 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: our everyday practice structure. So we're we're always trying to 168 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: push that UM because I'm not a believer in running 169 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: conditioning drills. UM, if you practice the right way and 170 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: you can you know, and GPS is a nice tool 171 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: to confirm, so you know each guy works each and 172 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: every day. There's a lot of good information that comes 173 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: off of that. So those those are the things that 174 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: we look at it every day. You know, Brett Brown 175 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: and Harold Nash and I have a four o'clock standard 176 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 1: GPS meeting after every practice, so you know exactly where 177 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 1: each guy is, and you know that coincides with the 178 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: training department. You know how how they fill each guy 179 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: is and then you know, we circle back in the 180 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: morning and if we need to tweak somebody's uh, you know, 181 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: reps or so forth. And so I mean, that's that's 182 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: all part of administrating and creating this structure. But the 183 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: conditioning comes in the way these guys practice, and our 184 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: guys have done a great job in that area. I 185 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: did the GPS become big for you. I know it's 186 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: on the round of view, but Wendy m probably around 187 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: twenty ten eleven, I'm gonna say, I remember the exact year. 188 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: A former strength coach, Mark Lavot actually did a study. 189 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: He went to Australia and spent some time with those 190 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: guys down there and they were, frankly, in my opinion, 191 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: we're a little head of the game in that area. 192 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: So so that training concept something that we actually studied 193 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: and looked at, and um, I was on a certain schedule. 194 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: It's probably similar to probably what Jason did here. It 195 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: is more of what I would referred to as a 196 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 1: traditional schedule, and we researched this whole launch you know, 197 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: track mentality training regiment. But it took me probably two 198 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: to three years to pull the trigger on it because 199 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: I just didn't feel like to, you know, I was 200 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: comfortable with it yet. So that's when we went away 201 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,839 Speaker 1: from the Friday practice, went into the Saturday and you know, 202 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of scientific you know, protocols go into that. 203 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: And I give Mark a lot of critic because he's 204 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: the one that drove the deal and you know, just 205 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: now bringing that here, that concept here, um our players, 206 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: you know, have really responded and have actually done a 207 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: very good job of it, adjusting to this schedule much 208 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: quicker than my past experience. So I think that helps 209 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: guys over the long run. You know, everybody practices a 210 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: certain way. It's early in the season. Everybody's trying to 211 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: get their team to play the way you want them 212 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: to play. But I think over the course of the season, 213 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: this schedule has a lot of benefits to it. The 214 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: rest of recovery built rest and recovery built into the 215 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: work week is something that our players can see and 216 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,839 Speaker 1: they can feel. It's not something they have to do 217 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: on our own. So um and so much so much 218 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: that we do from a group dynamic standpoint is about 219 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: regulation and routine and uh once again I think with 220 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: the seventeenth game also, these are all positive attributes for 221 00:10:52,520 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: us because stubborn Irish guy. Yes, you know, just well, 222 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we we we were winning. You know, 223 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: there was no reason to say, hey, we gotta we 224 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: gotta change our schedule. You know, we used to have 225 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: the old schedule where you know, Friday afternoon when they 226 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,599 Speaker 1: came off to practice field as forty eight hours. You know, 227 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: you had the forty eight hour roll where their bodies 228 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: were totally physically shut down. You know. Then you had 229 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: the twenty four hour rold that you know, Saturday at 230 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: noon that their minds are free to get themselves ready. 231 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: So I mean there's a lot of time and uh 232 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: energy into the old schedule and then the old schedule worked, 233 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 1: you know, but this this just you know, I was 234 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: we were on a team that had been to multiple 235 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: playoff games and you're thinking, okay, what you know, it's 236 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: there's something more we can do for that December January football. 237 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: So you know what I mean, I think like anything, 238 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: and we'll always do that here, whether it's offense or defense. 239 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: You know, it's this game of balls. You can't ever 240 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: just line up and do the same thing every year 241 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: because you know you're you're eventually gonna you're gonna catch 242 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: up the two or you're gonna get left behind. So 243 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: I was always looking for how can we be better 244 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: in December? You know, how can we better in January? 245 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 1: So on it. That's why I just took me a 246 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: couple of years to get comfortable with it. And it's 247 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: been a great change. Was it the Nazi rules football 248 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: team that any would watch shoot and he goes study? Yes, 249 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: he went down there and visited a few of the 250 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: clubs on there. The lack of the players solishness on offense? 251 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: How does that concern to other teams that you've you've 252 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: had very comparable you know, I think when you when 253 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: you make it clear that the systems built around the quarterback, 254 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 1: and you have the quarterback with the personality and presence 255 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: in command of Dak Prescott. It all falls in line frankly, um, 256 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 1: you know, and it's no nothing against our perimeter players, 257 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: our primiter players all hell, they better still want the ball, 258 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: you know, because I mean that's that's part of that 259 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: personality that makes makes them what they are. But at 260 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's it's about what's best 261 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 1: for winning and and this is the best way to 262 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: win because to beat the the good defenses, the great defenses, 263 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, your third, fourth, fifth option. They got to win, 264 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: you know, and those games are coming and we may 265 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: be in one Sunday, you know. So you when defenses 266 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: are aggressive to take away certain playmakers on your team, 267 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: you know, you got to have answers, you know. And 268 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: that's and that's a pretty good answer in my opinion. 269 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 1: Where's the guy coming into the building and think I 270 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: want toolve and then you have to really establish you know, 271 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: thinking we care more about leading you do your couches. Well, 272 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: I think it's like anything, it's all part of your 273 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: daily messaging. It's communication. It's really, frankly, the relationships you 274 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 1: know between the coaches and the players and the players 275 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: and the players, you know, I think it goes it 276 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: runs all the way through. Um so at the end 277 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: of the day, I mean, I'm not trying to hold 278 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: anybody back from having great individual success, but the team's 279 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: success is first. I mean, I think we all recognize that. 280 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you,
