Obviously, 518 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 9: he's always been good in that area. So excited for Pierre. 519 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 6: We've heard talked about it, shall be talked about it 520 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 6: stated there's maybe still another level there. 521 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 3: Well, it's scary to think about what that could look like. 522 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 9: Not scary for me, Yeah, I honestly think the great 523 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 9: ones challenge themselves to get better, and I think in 524 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 9: every sport, I think think you see there's such great 525 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 9: examples across sport of dominant players finding another gear, maybe 526 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 9: breaking that world record and track if you will. But uh, 527 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 9: I think Miles is in that category of of never satisfied. 528 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 3: Uh. 529 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 9: He obviously has done some amazing things as a player 530 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 9: to date, I think he can certainly do more individually, 531 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 9: and I know, more importantly to him, he wants. 532 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 8: To do more as a team. 533 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 3: Yes, a normal Friday practice for us. 534 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 5: With Jerome, What do you think? I guess he was 535 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 5: able to take away from being fortunate that you know, 536 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 5: future back role last year and the. 537 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, I thought he had some really good moments for us. Again, 538 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 9: a young player that I think will continue to get better. 539 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 9: We throw him out there on third downs last season 540 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 9: as a third down running back and he wasn't perfect, 541 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 9: but he didn't miss a beat. He got put you know, physically, 542 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 9: was good, mentally was good. And that was again without 543 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 9: a preseason, which I remember that being a big question 544 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 9: mark for us going in the season. Could a young 545 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 9: player handle that role? And he did so, excited for 546 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 9: all the things that come with being a veteran player 547 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 9: and getting more turns at it. 548 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 5: You talked today about doing a better job kind of 549 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 5: knowing where he's blocking, who's going to be Did you 550 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 5: see that as an issuation? 551 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 9: Do you see him getting better through came I just 552 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 9: think running backs don't come into this league as good 553 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 9: pass protectors. 554 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 3: It just never happens. 555 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 9: You don't see the amount of looks that are seen 556 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 9: at this level. 557 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 3: So there's just so much mentally. 558 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,959 Speaker 9: That has to be done to understand where your blocking 559 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 9: assignments are, even for a running back, knowing when you're 560 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 9: free to get out. And what I mean by that 561 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 9: is you may be in protection and I have my job, 562 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 9: I have my responsibility. He doesn't blitz, I can get 563 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 9: out the great ones, the really good ones I've been around. 564 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 9: It looks like it's a free release protection. It looks 565 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 9: like he's not even in protection, but he's His eyes 566 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 9: are so good that he gets out in the route 567 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 9: right away. Those are the type of things that I 568 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 9: think you see young players getting better at as they 569 00:22:59,480 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 9: get older. 570 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,479 Speaker 6: Well, you and the ab make cuts before toothing. 571 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 3: Uh, I'll have to check with the boss. 572 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 8: I don't know. 573 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 5: Kevin Miles and those big moments, what's the one you've 574 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 5: rewoeled the most? 575 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 10: You know? 576 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 3: Hmm? 577 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 8: Jumping was good? 578 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I mean there's so many obviously, Uh, Indy, 579 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 9: he darn near won the game for us, which was 580 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 9: pretty hard to do as a defensive player, but he did. Yeah, 581 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 9: there there's a ton. I'm excited to see what he's 582 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 9: got in store this season. 583 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 12: Tennessee's here on the side of having a general and 584 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 12: also love came. 585 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 3: Well, Uh, yeah, we'll see Mary kay. 586 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 9: I think for us, we want to just get through today, 587 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 9: get to tomorrow, see where we are, make make decisions 588 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 9: for on the game when we. 589 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 3: Think it's appropriate. Don't feel like we have to rush 590 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 3: into anything. We'll see. 591 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, like do you think maybe. 592 00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 7: Think it's active his first year that it almost help 593 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 7: think it wasn't really too much time, but you decis. 594 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 3: It can Uh. 595 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 9: You know, we we always talk about as young players, 596 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 9: there's no such thing as a red shirt year. I 597 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 9: think about Dewan Jonesdwan didn't get red shirted, Jerome didn't 598 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 9: get red shirted. Our young players have to if you're 599 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 9: on this roster and you're dressing game, they have to 600 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 9: be ready to go in one play or fifty plays, 601 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 9: whatever it is. So I do think those guys understand 602 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 9: that that mentality is necessary when playing this game. Uh, 603 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 9: and then obviously just working so hard prior to those 604 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 9: opportunities to make sure that you're ready for it. 605 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 12: Close to Attorney, he's close, yes, yes, yes, Coach Jerry 606 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 12: So he talks about is his work with DeShawn even 607 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 12: though he hasn't been on the fourth. 608 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 3: Round camp, it's kind of been an analysis because of. 609 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 10: The injured stuff. 610 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 7: But what did you notice the spell like his process, 611 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 7: because every time he's out. 612 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 9: There seems like they have a really good Yeah, they 613 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 9: haven't gotten a ton of games, but those guys are 614 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 9: they're two pros. 615 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 8: Uh. 616 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 9: They do a great job of talking about routes and 617 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 9: concepts and Deshaun sharing with Jerry what he sees, Jerry 618 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 9: Sharon what he sees.
