1
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: Ah man, I've uh been with Gus for a long time,

2
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: just so much respect for him and uh, you know,

3
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: while our philosophies are different or the same, I should say,

4
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: we look at it differently, if that makes sense.

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 2: And it's kind of good yin and yang. You know, he's.

6
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 1: Uh he sees my blind spots and I can see

7
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: his and uh, and I think we just compliment each

8
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 1: other really well. But just the overall trust and working

9
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: relationship that he and I have and uh, just overall philosophy,

10
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: and I think it just you know, he's he's as

11
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: trustworthy as it gets.

12
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 2: Example of the the you're talking about.

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: I'm more liberal in terms of uh, you know, from

14
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: a from a player assignment standpoint. I I want our

15
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: players to be more you know, just play more reaction reactionary.

16
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if that's the word I'm looking for.

17
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: Where you know, he grew up in a system where

18
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: it's every single technique has a word, every movement has

19
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 1: a word, and so there's you know, he can see

20
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: blind spots where I'm liberal to the point where it's

21
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: like and he goes, well, shoot we need to and

22
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: it's and then vice versas. So it's it's a good

23
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: it's a good work in dynamic in.

24
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 2: That regard Bryce huff At this defense speed off the edge.

25
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: You know, he's a you know, I think highly of

26
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: him as a pass rusher. Thought he was very productive

27
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 1: obviously with the Jets. You know, he wins at such.

28
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 2: A high rate.

29
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: You know, when you know, a lot of times you

30
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,279
Speaker 1: look at pass rushers, we look at sacks, and sacks

31
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: are important, Dan drives and it's what ultimately gets these

32
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: guys paid. But his disruption rate and getting the quarterback

33
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: off the spot and the way he can do it. Now,

34
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: he's not a he's not really a he is a

35
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: second effort pass rusher, but he wins so quickly, so

36
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: often that coordinators have to account for his presidence on

37
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: the field.

38
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: Head coach of Kyle Shanahan staid yesterday that it's only

39
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 3: a handful of guys that were here when you were

40
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 3: here last. But because of their trust in you and

41
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: them reiterating that to all the younger guys, it seems

42
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: like there's just a trust in what you can do

43
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: to the system. How much easier has that made your

44
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 3: job so far? And getting the defensive buy into what

45
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 3: you're trying to get them to do and seeing it,

46
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 3: you know, come and materialize.

47
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: Out there on the I'm not sure about that that one.

48
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: I always look at it, whether whether we know each

49
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: other or not, that players all.

50
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: Want to be coached.

51
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: They all want they all want to know why they're

52
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: being coach a certain way they and they want results

53
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: like all of us, you know, and uh, you know,

54
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: so it's been it's been good from a benefit of

55
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: the doubt, if you will. But you guys know how

56
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: this profession is. It's first game, have a bad day

57
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: and all that, all the benefit of the doubt goes

58
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: out the windows. So you know, it's been great working

59
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: with these guys are like everybody else. Like I said,

60
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 1: they want to be coached, they want to know why,

61
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,399
Speaker 1: and they wanted they want it done the right way,

62
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: and it's been a good first couple of months.

63
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 4: Trent Williams said yesterday that it was his first time

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 4: meeting a lot of these guys, and he said that

65
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 4: you would just never know that this was a six

66
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 4: and eleven team last year. Did you kind of get

67
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 4: that vibe too?

68
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 2: I can answer that one. In training camp. Once we

69
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 2: get Pats on party, what's your first impression came. Now

70
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 2: that you're like on the same team with him, I

71
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 2: think highly of him, I really do.

72
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: He's uh, he is really good, you know, And I'm

73
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: just you know, you get you get jaded sometimes. I

74
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: think when you're when you're looking at certain players for

75
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: a certain amount of time and you know, like as

76
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: a new face coming in and seeing Brock, I'm like,

77
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: is pretty damn good.

78
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: Where I could see where?

79
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: You know, you get so used to seeing it, it

80
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: becomes a standard and you're always trying to elevate it.

81
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: But you know, not the not not every head coach

82
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: or not every organization is able to look at their

83
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: quarterback and compare it to broco Like, Brock is damn

84
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: a damn good quarterback. So try not to talk poorly

85
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: on other quarterbacks around the league, but he is one

86
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: of the better ones.

87
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: Coached Bryce through his early years.

88
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 4: What steps did he take.

89
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,799
Speaker 2: That prompted that ten sex season?

90
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 3: Like, how did his progression go from?

91
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: You know, he stuck to it.

92
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: I think his first year so he's undrafted, came in

93
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: as a linebacker. He was with the first regime. So

94
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: credit to Greg Williams and Adam Gase and those guys,

95
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: they're the ones who found him.

96
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: Wow.

97
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: When we when we when we got into the building

98
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: at the Jets, we kind of let him know that

99
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: if he was going to make it was going to

100
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: be as a defensive end. And so he put on god,

101
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: I want to say, twenty plus pounds of muscle, probably more.

102
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he really reshaped his body and he just

103
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: kept plugging away. You know, our first year he was

104
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: having a really productive year, got hurt. And then the

105
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: second year, you know, we drafted a couple of guys,

106
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: we got some free agents, but he kept showing up.

107
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 2: Again.

108
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: In our third year, which was a twenty three year,

109
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: he really came out of the scene. And to his credit,

110
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: I mean he was he was the d n in

111
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of the preseason games if you go

112
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: back and look at it, you know, but it didn't

113
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 1: discourage him. He just kept going and going and going

114
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: and really just kicked the door down and took over

115
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: that spot.

116
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 4: How is how's Dick bos changed over the years?

117
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 5: He said he was then here a couple of weeks

118
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 5: ago said he wants to get back to his bread

119
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 5: leader moves from twenty twenty two.

120
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 6: So I just like, how has he drifted away from that.

121
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 4: What do you see from him?

122
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: You know what we'll see again once Patt gets Pad's

123
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: get on. But he's so deliberate and everything he does,

124
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: he's always been that way. He's the way he takes

125
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: care of his body. He's meticulous in that regard, you know,

126
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: and you anytime, I think the great ones can always

127
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: sell scout and self evaluate and be critical of themselves.

128
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: And I think over a film study over the last year,

129
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: I think he's pin pointed where he can improve and

130
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: and I think he'll do that.

131
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 4: What was it about Jason Pittock that wanted you? You

132
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 4: want to get him a second time? And what was

133
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 4: it like when you had to deliver the bad news

134
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 4: back in twenty twenty two.

135
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, we drafted JP as a corner and uh,

136
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: halfway through his rookie year, we moved him over to safety.

137
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: You know, credit credit some of the guys that the

138
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: Jets that are still there just kind of beat him

139
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: out in that second year. But I've always been a

140
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: fan of his athleticism, his length, his football IQ. Uh,

141
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: he's a really good football player, and just being with

142
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: him over the course of the first couple of months,

143
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: Like he's he's grown significantly from a maturity standpoint, and

144
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: he's attacked the heck out of it and he's he's

145
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: going for it. So you know, you know what, Jason,

146
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: You're you're getting a guy that's going to add athleticism

147
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: and speed and football IQ to your football team. And

148
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: and that's just a matter of him competing and holding

149
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: on to it.

150
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 5: Robert, when people talking about Shanahan and indership style, a

151
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 5: lot of players we're going to talk about, he's you know,

152
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 5: honest with them, which they appreciate. Sometimes it's gonna be

153
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 5: hard to hear. Is the same hold true with this staff?

154
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 5: And if so, do you ever a story that you

155
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 5: could share public with you where he's like, hey, you know,

156
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 5: Robert or whatever, you know, you gotta do this or whatever.

157
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, there's it's one thing that you know,

158
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: you're going back to Gus Like he's just been in

159
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: awe of Kyle in terms of his communication and his

160
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: teaching style, his presentation in front of the room, and

161
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, just our dialogue back and forth and trying

162
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: to make each other better and help our schemes out

163
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: and just you know, he's he's elite in that regard.

164
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: You know, he doesn't just close his door, and he's

165
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: he's very very transparent with everybody on the coaching staff.

166
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: You know, it's he is. He expects things done a

167
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: certain way like everyone else does. And you know, you

168
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: you know, just working with him for so long now,

169
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: I can I guess differentiate the tone if that makes

170
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: sense when he gets upset, which which is expected, And

171
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: having been in the chair, I could see why he

172
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: can get annoyed every once in a while. But but

173
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,239
Speaker 1: he's he's elite in that regard. He's elite with the players,

174
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: he's elite with the coaching staff, and and you know,

175
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: he just does a he does a really good job

176
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: of letting you know why he wants things done. It's

177
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: just not barking and having you do things. Everybody in

178
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: the building knows what their role is, they know why

179
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: their role is what it is, and they know exactly

180
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: why they're doing things. So you know, you'd be hard

181
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: pressed to find somebody as good as him.

182
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 6: Robert with the Jets, you had you know on the corner,

183
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 6: you had you know, real dudes. You know, you had

184
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 6: sauce and you had to read and you have demo

185
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 6: and you have Ronardo now, but you brought in seven corners.

186
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 6: Are any of those guys, dudes, Are any of those

187
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 6: guys opening your eyes at all?

188
00:08:58,720 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 2: Yeah?

189
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I feel like from community communication, the

190
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: whole the whole goal into this ot AS was just

191
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: to see see our guys improved from a community communication standpoint,

192
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: execution standpoint and all that. And once we get pads

193
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 1: on and it gets real and you can get a

194
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: little bit more physical with the receivers. You've got crack

195
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 1: replace rules, you've you know, they're they're gonna be a

196
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: little bit more involved. We'll have a better idea of

197
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: who's gonna who's gonna stick and who's not. Your impressions

198
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: of de Winters in this spring period, he's been impressive.

199
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 2: You know.

200
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: Again, well, it's it's easy when it's ot AS and

201
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: you're not having to deal with run pass reads and

202
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: everything's a little bit slower. But he's, uh, he's got

203
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: something to him.

204
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: You know.

205
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: It's I don't want to drink him or anything. But

206
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: if he if he stays on this trajectory and he

207
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: he attacks these next forty days and he does things

208
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: the right way, I think he's he's due for a

209
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: heck of a season.

210
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 5: You've seen a lot of rookie classes come in and

211
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 5: how they.

212
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 6: React to the you're not you're talking about there, but how.

213
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 5: Is this rookie class then and classroom work and just

214
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 5: being attentive and doing what they're supposed.

215
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: To be as now, it's been it's been good.

216
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: You know, they're you know, I've always said a rookie

217
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 1: half of what a rookie does in his first season

218
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: is just he's just playing, doesn't know what the heck's

219
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: going on, He's just using all his athleticism. But uh,

220
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: but there's been a couple of guys not the name

221
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: names who have stood out from an assignment standpoint. You

222
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: always want they're always going to make mistakes. You just

223
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: don't want to. You just don't want to see him

224
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 1: make the same mistake twice. And you know, so from

225
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: that regard, it's been impressive to watch some of those guys.

226
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: They've been.

227
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: I mean some Uh, I'm thinking of one on top

228
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,559
Speaker 1: of my head. I'm just not going to name his name.

229
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: He'll make the adjustment before we ever get to him.

230
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: So it's it's a pretty cool group.

231
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thanks guys,
