1
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: First pack of back sessions of the year. Close, first

2
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: back to back sessions of the year. UM. Good, yeah good.

3
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: Um Yeah. So yesterday we uh you know, spent the

4
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: day in the ball going through uh you know at

5
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: a slower pace here, UM, all three phases of the

6
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: game here, offense, defense, special teams. You know, We've got

7
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of looks and a lot

8
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 1: of reps here on getting ready for the Jets. Today.

9
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: We'll go out and I hit it at uh uh

10
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,599
Speaker 1: more regular practice tempo. I'm so it will be good

11
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: to get out there and get that. UM. I took

12
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: a full workload yesterday. UM, I expect them to be

13
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 1: fully available here for the game and ready to go.

14
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: So UM, that's really it for that. We got a

15
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: couple of the guys that were uh limited yesterday, and

16
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: so we'll see where they are today and move forward

17
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: with them. But that's UM, and really we need to

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: do is you have a good day out there today,

19
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: get ready for a you know, a good Jets team,

20
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: a team that plays a little differently than in some

21
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: of the teams we played here the last couple of weeks. UM,

22
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: very San Francisco based, UM offensively and defensively, Um, you know,

23
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: going back when he's talking the forty nine ers back

24
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 1: in twenty and of course the coach boy Er, Um,

25
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: it's just whatever, seventh year with the Jets, so you know,

26
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: that's been very continuous um on the kicking game. But

27
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: the offensive defensive systems, as you know, kind of came

28
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: in from San Francisco, uh last year and and obviously

29
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: they've they've built on those and have a lot of

30
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: successful in this year. So that's what we need to see. Howard,

31
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: is it for you to be able to see Matt

32
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: get a full workloaded. Yeah, he's ready to do that.

33
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: So that's you know, that's what he needs to pay

34
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: pair for the game, and that's what our offensive inn needs,

35
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: everybody working together. So we'll get that this week. Is

36
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: that what you needed to see yesterday when you told

37
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: us you're the way? Yeah, I'm yeah, Like that's the decision.

38
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: So that's who are we right now in the situation

39
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: at that point yesterday. I would have told you that yesterday,

40
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: but when we were at that point, then let you

41
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: know that. Thank you. Yeah, no, not at all, just

42
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: trying to be helpful, appreciate it. I don't mention it.

43
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: Sorry in the situation, did you have to tell Mackie

44
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: is the starter or is it kind of understood since

45
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: he did get the bold work lad. Yeah, I talked

46
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: to all the quarterbacks, so everybody knows where we're at.

47
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: So that's the plan for him to start Sunday. That's

48
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: what I just said. It's a full load. I just

49
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: didn't know fully available. I don't. Sometimes you just going

50
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: over me um when it comes to the plans moving forward.

51
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: I mean, is he I just like I've just that's

52
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: where we're at. Okay, So like, don't get me like,

53
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 1: I don't want to go through a lot of hypotheticals.

54
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: You know, that's not where we're at. We're getting ready

55
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: for the Jets. That's where we're at, period. So you

56
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: can't say for them, I can't give it like you're

57
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: in a bunch of hypothetical situations and I don't I

58
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: don't know what those hypotheticals are. So I'm not gonna

59
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: get into that. So try not to ask hypothetical couple.

60
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: But it's hypothetical. Like here we are today, we're practicing

61
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: for the Jets. It's a Thursday, getting ready for the Jets.

62
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: Like that's where we are. So anything that happens beyond that,

63
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: I mean it's not current. I canna get into it

64
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: as helpful as I can be. I mean, come on,

65
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: how important is it at that? Because to get the

66
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: full workload in practice, I think it's more important when

67
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: you haven't played in a while, but that way, it's

68
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: always important. But when you've been out for a while,

69
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: then getting the timing and execution back is important for

70
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: you and your teammates at an any position. Following up

71
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: on that, is there at like a time period where

72
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: he has to get back into the flow of things,

73
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: kind of like a reacclimation period for him to have

74
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: success on game game I don't know. Bill James Robinson

75
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: with the Jets, now, what challenges does that bring? Since

76
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: you haven't seen him with the Jets offense, I mean

77
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: he's gone to leave for a couple years and he's

78
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: showing exacting solved back. Yeah for sure. And you know

79
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: they used quite a bit of a two back system there,

80
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: you know, with halland Carter. So, um, whether that'll be

81
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: the case now with Robinson or not, I don't know.

82
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: It's certainly something that we'll have to, you know, be

83
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: ready for. Um, again, they didn't do it a lot,

84
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 1: but they did it, you know enough, and they's some

85
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: that's some successful plays out of for sure, that a

86
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: couple of big explosive plays. Um you know, out of

87
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 1: a one back set with uh, well we have both

88
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: backs in backfield or one back in the backfield and

89
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: use the other back as a jet sweep counters, passing

90
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 1: game plays like that. So um yeah, that's something that

91
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: we've prepared for. We saw with Hall and and uh

92
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: Carter and now off periods Robinson too, So yeah, obviously

93
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: another good player that is gonna you know, be part

94
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: of their skill group that we're gonna have to be

95
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: ready for. What's been the Jets biggest areas of growth

96
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: from prepared to last year. I mean, well, it looked

97
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: the biggest difference in their record in their season is

98
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,559
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, and that's scored their opponents by fifty

99
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: four points and in the fourth quarter, so it's a

100
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: good place to start. They played well in most critical

101
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: situations in the game, in all three phases of the game,

102
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,119
Speaker 1: and it's one of the reasons why that a good record,

103
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: and there saw that they've improve in every area of

104
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: the game. But that's you know, to win games and

105
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,119
Speaker 1: that score your opponents by that much in the fourth quarter,

106
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: that's it's gonna gonna get you on though, you know.

107
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: And the winning in and the winning column, that's what

108
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: it's time. How about the way they've protected the ball.

109
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: A short time with Adrian Scholtz was a radio review,

110
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 1: and he said that he seemed growth in Josh Wilson.

111
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: He's not freelancing as much taking care of the ball

112
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: quarterback for this year as opposed to maybe really last year. Yeah,

113
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: I think that's that's fair. Um. But again and in

114
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: a lot of the games, close games and playing from

115
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: ahead and that always you know, plays favorably into the

116
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: ball security and decision making that kind of thing. So um,

117
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: I think some of this stats last year was skewed

118
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: with the coming from behind, trying to get back in

119
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: the game, you know, pressing things, that type of thing.

120
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: There's been a lot less of that this year, and

121
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: part of that's because it's been less bad plays at

122
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: the beginning of the game to get behind. But they

123
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: played good defense, they don't give up a lot of points.

124
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: They moved the ball offensively, have all the good skill players.

125
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: They played well in the kicking game. You know, are

126
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: they punted a well Hardy and Echoes are you know,

127
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: two outstanding gunners. They've created a lot of strong field

128
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: position there, you know, in exchange of punts, so you know,

129
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: Barrios is the top of the league and kickoff returns

130
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: and near the top of the league and punt returns.

131
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: So the overall field position differential and the kicking game

132
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: has been favorable. So when all those things play into

133
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: good complimentary football, and the quarterbacks certainly a part of it,

134
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: but all those things help him. He helps the other areas.

135
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: Kicking game helps the defense. So Bill, is the decision

136
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: to make Mac the quarterback for a Sunday? Is that

137
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:17,119
Speaker 1: fully related to Max's health? Yeah, he's Yes, he's ready

138
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: to play. He's ready to play last week. Just then

139
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: feel it's the full game this week. It's a different situation.

140
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: And that's it. We'll take it from there. Okay, I

141
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: just I guess it was curious. Did Bailey's play on

142
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: Sunday have anything to do with That's it? So I'll

143
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: take it from here. Take it from here. Don't keep

144
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: trying to trap me in a stuff down the future,

145
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: because I can't like today's today. Yeah, I'm not trying

146
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: trying to trap me, just you know, just wondering about

147
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: the decision making process because you know, Bailey played well

148
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: for two games, and he played a lot the other night,

149
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: So it's just curious if Monday had anything to do

150
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: with the decision. Yeah. Well, he started the game the

151
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,599
Speaker 1: way we wanted to start it last week, and and

152
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: and we talked about the way it ended up. So

153
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: this week's different weeks, different situation. That could be a

154
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: quarterback built trade deadline next week. Do you already have

155
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: a pretty clear picture of what you look to accomplish matter? Yeah, honestly,

156
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: I haven't spent much time with that. Um. You know,

157
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: our personnel department that grow really handles A and Elliott.

158
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: So if there's something that's UM relevant, then we'll talk

159
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: about it. So I don't know, we'll soon. What has

160
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: a lot to see? Jane alwis leading to be so

161
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: destract for so long. He's a really good player. Um,

162
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: he's a good linebackers We faced in all areas. Um,

163
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: there's a lot of linebackers that don't have the coverage

164
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: skill that he has. Both Man's own a lot of

165
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: ads instincts awareness, but he reads and diagnoses plays very quickly, screens, draws,

166
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: misdirection plays, things like that, the degree of difficulty plays,

167
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: he really plays those well. He's a good tackler, he

168
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: runs well, he's got good playing strength and explosion. It's

169
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: just a really smart football player controls their front. But

170
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: he makes just makes right decisions on on almost every play. Runs,

171
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: play actions, misdirections, you know, tempo and leveraging on the ball.

172
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: And again he's a solid tackler um and you know

173
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: it doesn't he gets the runner and gets the guy

174
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: down um sometimes behind the line of scrimmage something, but

175
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 1: you know when he can get there, he makes the play.

176
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: But he's very very good at diagnosing and being in

177
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: the right spot. And he's a hard guy to he's

178
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: our guy to get out of position. And you've got

179
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: to be really careful throwing the ball around him, and

180
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: you gotta block him in a running game or you're

181
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,599
Speaker 1: not going to go very far. So he's he's the

182
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: guy we gotta we gotta control, and he's he's a

183
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: really good player, as good as any metal linebacker we

184
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: play against all year. Bill question, I'd say they're the

185
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: same players. But when you face Seattle in the past

186
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: they had wager with San Francisco Warner mostly the big

187
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 1: warns player like that in that system. Do you see

188
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: comparable traits, comparable value those players in terms of what

189
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: cell as we do. Yeah, Like I said, he's he's

190
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: as good as anybody we play, just all the way

191
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: across the board. He can blitz. He doesn't blitz a lot,

192
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 1: but he can and he does, especially in some of

193
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: their third down packages. Um, he can cover. He's a

194
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: very good zone coverage player. Reads, you know, reads patterns well,

195
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: reads a quarterback well, does a good job in that.

196
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 1: You can play a man a man very good in

197
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: the running game, very instinct the good at taken on blockers,

198
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 1: a good tackler. Yeah, keeps a good tempo on the

199
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: running back. So he doesn't like overrun plays or take

200
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: a poor angle and that type of thing. Like he

201
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: he's I mean, he's really good at all those things.

202
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: And you know he obviously quarterbacks, the you know, the

203
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 1: front seven. I mean it's a team that runs quite

204
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: a bit of movement line games and that type of thing.

205
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: And I'm sure those coordinations and those calls are you know,

206
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: come from the middle linebacker. I mean, I don't know

207
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: that for sure, but I'm assuming it does, and like

208
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: it does in most teams, and so he's probably a

209
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: big part of that too. But his kid's been been

210
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: a good player out of college in Baltimore and then

211
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: you know, at the Jets, I mean just the one

212
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: year with the injury, but I mean shows up, plays

213
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: every week, plays every play out there in all situations.

214
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: No reason to take him off the field. He's a

215
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: really good player, all right, Great, thank you.
