1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,680 Speaker 1: But as if jogging on the Titans offense, what what 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: stands out to you about their ability to run the ball? Well, 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry stands out, but I would say in addition 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: to him, you know, the offensive line, Um, have a 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: lot of really good players up from veteran players, from 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: Lawan to Jones in the middle of the scapple to uh. 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: You know, obviously they got Davis and there's a rookie. 8 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 1: But I mean there's just a lot of continuity there 9 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: with that group that I think there's a lot of things, 10 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: uh that that allowed Henry to get started and when 11 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: he gets going to the tough mancackle. Next question, Henry McKenna, 12 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 1: fall VI, Jim cry Hey, Brad Um, I'm wanted to 13 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: ask you about Lawrence Guy. I think it was last 14 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: week Bill was talking about how Lawrence has been so 15 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: consistent this year. Um, so what's allowed him that consistency? 16 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: And maybe you know what what where do you see 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: him making sort of special play? You know in that defense? 18 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: You know, I've been very impressed with LG. Ironically, I 19 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: played against him when he's in college at the Arizona 20 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: State when I was at coach of Wisconsin. So to 21 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: see the development from when he was a player to 22 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: where he is today. He is extremely intelligent player, great 23 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 1: football like you. So as a as an interior defensive lineman, 24 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: he has a great understanding of what an offense is 25 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: trying to do, how they aligned what they're doing. He also, 26 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: if you remember back to a player this year where 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: he kind of jumped a snap and made an interception 28 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: of all things you don't see the lot of times 29 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: for a defensive lineman. That was all kind of an 30 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: instinct reaction. He plays with really good leverage. He has 31 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,919 Speaker 1: extremely strong hands. I would say all those things coupled 32 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: with a high football like you and a good motor 33 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: making very tough to block. And you know, he's probably 34 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: one of the more prideful guys too in his preparation. 35 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: I'm truly blessed to have him in a room. He 36 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: does a great job with the rookies, He does great 37 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: with the guys that come into the room for the time, 38 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: and just a really good role model. Bill always kind 39 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: of stresses smart, health, dependable, and easier. Bitomy of that. 40 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: Great Thank you, YEA next question. Jim McBride called by 41 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: Mike Petragia Morning, Brett, just wandering what are the what 42 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: are the coaching points that need to be u kind 43 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: of reinforced when when dealing with a guy like Derrick 44 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: Henry who's so physical at the point of attack. You know, 45 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: the fundamentals of defensive football never really changed, right. You 46 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: gotta you gotta be able to defend the block first. 47 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,839 Speaker 1: You know, there's a defensive lineman, linebacker, outside linebackers there. 48 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna let you just run free to the ball, 49 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: So you have to take on the block. You have 50 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: to defend it and get off it. And then after 51 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: you get to do all that, you get to tackle 52 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: one of the best in the NFL. M is a 53 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: tough task, but I think the fundamental is a pad level. 54 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: Being very smart about how you disengage a blocker and 55 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: being able to use the right leverage to make sure 56 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: the ball is funneled in the right direction to our 57 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: defense kind of makes it all all go together. But 58 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: you know it's going to basically get up into how 59 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: well we can tackle this guy. Obviously a very strong, 60 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: very talented you have great speed with great power and 61 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: nand in conjunction with all the other things they add 62 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: in the perimeter with the receivers in the way to 63 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: hand Danehill has been able to deliver the ball to them. 64 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: Is that makes a very difficult challenge for our defense. 65 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: Thank you? Yeah, all right, Next question Mike Protective, followed 66 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: by Bob soci Thank you, Stacy, good morning. Yeah, Brett, 67 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: how are you good? Wanted to ask you about rotations 68 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: along the defensive line, and that's something you guys have 69 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: done very well all season in terms of your depth. 70 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: That would appear on one of your strengths along defensive line. 71 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: I'm curious in the playoffs if you shorten the bench, 72 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: so to speak it or if you change the way 73 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: you rotate depending on wanting to have your best guys 74 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: in the game or your front line guys in the 75 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: game versus U having as many bodies available as possible. 76 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: How how do you balance that? You know what I 77 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: really stressed it to our group. You know, for most 78 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: of the people that walk through the door, we have 79 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: guys that are you know, the three hundred pound club 80 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: and up, and you know their rotation and reps, you know, 81 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: change It's different than one hundred and ninety pound DV. 82 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: So those big guys up front, it's a matter of 83 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: how well they play but also how for us they are, 84 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: so you know, the magic number for each guys a 85 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: little bit different. LG and Danny obviously to play a 86 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: lot of early down sports. Adam Butler plays a lot 87 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: of sub packages, feature kind of subgen and alvariety of 88 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: different roles. Had a couple of guys that have been 89 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: you know, active for the game during the course of 90 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: the year, but it's really been those four guys for 91 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: the most part, and you know, coaches allowed me to, 92 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: you know, kind of free willingly put those guys in, 93 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: and I really try to keep the number of consecutive 94 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: plays as somebody puts together a long drive. Really try 95 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: to rotate those guys through because I know they know 96 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: they're for us. You know, I've seen LG in particularly, 97 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: you know, make some really big plays, big moments when 98 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: he has to accelerate and cover a lot of ground, 99 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: and when he does that, it's it's obviously a lot 100 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 1: of skill work, but it's also he's fresh and ready 101 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: for that play. Danny's had I think career numbers now 102 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: during his time as an NFL player this year with 103 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: total factules and pressures and facts and a lot of 104 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: it is a technique, but he's also fresh. I think 105 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: that's a very big part of being an NFL defensive lineman. 106 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: So we'll kind of do standard standard, normal motive operation 107 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: for us. We don't have a lot of options. We 108 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: got small numbers which make it easy. Great, thank you. Yeah, 109 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: next question Bob sosey Fellow by Tom Keaton. All right, thanks, Stacy, 110 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: Kimborne and pretty Bill talked about the blending of the 111 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: running game with play action and the importance of the 112 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: receivers blocking gxhistical receivers. For Kenness, he wanted to ask 113 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: you about defending Anne Hill from that aspect as well. 114 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: Pat's seen a lot of him through the years with Miami, 115 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: of course, but in Tennessee's offense, you know, how has 116 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 1: he improved now that part of their game play action? 117 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: Do they do our pos things of that nature that 118 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: you are going to challenge of defense on Saturday. What 119 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: I see, you know Tennessee from where we were a 120 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: year ago when we played in the regular season. Obviously 121 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: we have the you know preseason with him is with 122 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: tande Hill, they've had a blending of really everything what 123 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: you're vincing from run to play action but also just 124 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: specific look that they're giving that that is very easy 125 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: from Tanna Hill. You can see the confidence in the 126 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: way he's executing the runs, the run game, the checks 127 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: of the line, scream age, but also you know how 128 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: he ties that into the passing game play action or 129 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: dropped back. He's just you know, he's got a lot 130 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: of options around him. They're playing very well, and the 131 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: game everything starts up front. I think this offensive line 132 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: in particular has really shown to me that the you know, 133 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: the best group that we've played to this point, just 134 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: from tackle the tackle and everywhere in between, a very 135 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: solid group, play extremely hard, played a little bit of 136 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: edge to him, and it's it's really a fun group 137 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: to prepare for. Everybody, you know, gets uneasy with adversity, 138 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: obviously with us having a loss yesterday, but I think 139 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: that's when the true competitor and everybody comes out. And 140 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: I know we got a building full of them, and 141 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: I know that the preparation for this game will be 142 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: a lot of fun this week and then get the 143 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: Saturday night and see where it goes. If I can 144 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: quickly follow up on one of those offensive farm and 145 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: you mentioned earlier, Ben Jones, I know David Andrews Offen 146 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: talked about Ben's influence on him center with his experience, 147 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: you know, his leadership when you go against the line 148 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: like that, How does that show itself on video on 149 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: when you watch them? Well, Ben's in charge, you can see, 150 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: you know, he does a lot of communication. He's in 151 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: communication with Tannehill and the rest of the offensive line 152 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: plays with a really really good tat level. You know, 153 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: he's a center that has great core strength. He's got 154 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: the ability to turn you a flip you, a run you. 155 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: But he's good and pass protection and just really kind 156 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: of a savvy player, a really in threeing guy to 157 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: watch on film. And I know we've got a task 158 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: out for us on Saturday night. Thanks for I appreciate it. Yeah, 159 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: it looks like the final question would be Tom Keaton. 160 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Tom, Hey, Bret Hey, Tom. He coached against 161 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry three times, I believe in college and did 162 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: well again the final two times. What you remember about 163 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: from those games and were you surprised that he lasted 164 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: into the middle of the second round. Um, he was 165 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: a very you know, I don't remember a lot about 166 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: those games. I think I got from cuss of the 167 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: head coach on some of those Bama games. But he's 168 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: a very very talented player. Um. The thing that stands 169 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: out to you is he has the ability to, you know, 170 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: get what's in front of him, but also a little 171 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: bit more. He's got great power. Um. You know, as 172 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: contriguing as he was, is a just a physical talent. 173 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: You know, he really plays the game the right way. 174 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: You see him, in my opinion, compete for extra yardage 175 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: down in the goal line. He can he can smell 176 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: the goal line and really does a good job of 177 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: trying to convert himself into the end zone. A very 178 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: talented player. And then, as is the case with any player, 179 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: anybody that gets momentum and confidence that he's obviously playing 180 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: with right now and leading the National Football League is 181 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: no small task. I think to have a fifteen hundred 182 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: yard rusher and everage over five yards and carry speaks 183 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 1: volumes about what he is. Right. Thanks Brett, enjoy all 184 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: the free time I'm sure you'll have this week.
