Yeah, so you know, it's been 2 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time here on on Cincinnati the 3 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: last couple of days. It is good, good football team. UM, 4 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: a good organization. I've always had a lot of respect for, 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, Mike and you know his commitment to the 6 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: old Brown family. You know, come back to Paul Brown, Mike, UM, 7 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, and then Zach's done a really good job there. 8 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: You know. Obviously low on defense, you know Darren in 9 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: the kicking game. UM, team's well coached. UM. They have 10 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:43,919 Speaker 1: a lot of good players, very explosive offensively, great quarterback, 11 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: UM three three great receivers, tight end, two really good 12 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: running backs. Offensive lines, it's really have been improved from 13 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: where they were last year. And you know, defensively they 14 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: can they've been they can stop the run, they can rush. 15 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: A really smart team, good situational football team. Field goal 16 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: kickers or he is twelve out of thirteen from over 17 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 1: fifty yards or something like that. He doesn't miss many. UM, 18 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: so explosive in the return game. UM. You can see 19 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: why they're and whether one of the top teams in 20 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: the league. UM playing well here. You know lately I'm 21 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: not even not quite as good at the beginning of 22 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: the year, but they've certainly come on playing good football now. 23 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: So um, it's been a good opportunity for US Saturday, 24 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: and you know, challenge here to you know, deal with 25 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: these guys. They go a lot of a lot of 26 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: weapons and say they're very they're very well coached, and 27 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: they're penalized. Um, play a clean game and so make 28 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: air and everything. So that's what we're gonna have to do. 29 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: Many thoughts about the passing and Frank go Harris, Um, 30 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: yeah said, I mean there's a legend. Um, yeah, great, 31 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: great college player. Um. Maybe maybe a little overshadowed by uh, 32 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: you know lydell Um, but that was pretty good backfield. Um, 33 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: I was at Baltimore lydell Um. George Welsh was their 34 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: position coach at and State, So talked about those guys 35 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: quite a bit. And um, you know, Mitchell got a 36 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: lot of the a lot of the stats and publicity 37 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: and all that at Penn State. But George always you know, 38 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: raped about Franco and didn't carry ball as much and 39 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: and his hands, which I mean one play kind of 40 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: says it all, you know on that one. So, um, 41 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: he wasn't fun to play against I can tell you 42 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: that is that Baltimore. We played him in the playoffs 43 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: there my first year. Um, yeah, guys, that's a great player, 44 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: a great person. That's a big loss. Thank you, no 45 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: worst message to the guys with you know, three games left. 46 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: Kind of control your own destiny here, um taking care 47 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: of his switcher. Message to the gay one day at 48 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: the time, One game at the time. Sames always first 49 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: time you've seen Joe Burrow. What stands out to you 50 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: about him when you watch Monk though? Yeah? Everything? Um, 51 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he's always tough. He's a tough kid. Um, 52 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: He's he'll stand in there and throw the ball, take 53 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: a hit to make a play, um accurate, that's all 54 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: the throws off to tackle and just the game well 55 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: sees the game well, productive, productive in critical situations, third down, 56 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: red area, big games. Let's say it makes makes a 57 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: lot of his best plays at the right time. Would 58 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: you really need him? It's impressive. Kind of impact is 59 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: Ted Carress made on their line? I think this year? Yeah, 60 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: Ted's not a good job are they They've been protecting Borrow. 61 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: That was sort of a storyline early in Miss Carey 62 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: took a lot of sacks. I don't know if that's 63 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: still true this year. But um, how's their offensive line 64 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: point protection? Standpoint? I Like I said, they definitely improved. 65 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: So let's saw a couple of games from last year. 66 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 1: Um yeah, I think they've improved. You made some changes there, 67 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: drafted Dolson, brought ted in there Collins. So Bengals have 68 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: had a lot of injuries all over, but mainly on defense, 69 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: losing Cheeto the main corner, a couple of defensive what 70 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: it stuck out to you that they've had been able 71 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: to sustain their defensive that for their physicality, what lou 72 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: has on that side. Yeah, yeah, again, lose done a 73 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: good job. They've they've got good depth and um yeah again, 74 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: I think they're very um you know, they're they're aware, 75 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: they're they make good instinctive plays. Um like Hilton's a 76 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: very extinctive player of both safeties. Really. Um so, I 77 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: mean they make a lot of you know, good plays 78 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: at the right time, recognize things anticipating. Sometimes it looks 79 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: like you're gonna have more than you have and then 80 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: things clows up quickly. I mean, Wilson's been really productive 81 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: and said a lot of tackles. It's got some interceptions 82 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: here the last couple of years. He gets his handle 83 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: on the balls, good past defenders. So I mean it's 84 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: a team defense. Yeah, just team defense. The two edge 85 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: players that have been very disruptive, So got a lot 86 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: out of hoverders happened to good defense and after points 87 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: off four four street turnovers in the second half of 88 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: gats Tampa Bay in the season, I love a lot 89 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: of the touchdown defensive name the second half, but the 90 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: first half does and games or so is there something 91 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: that stands out adjustments? Is it just doing what they 92 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: were doing better? Yeah, I'd say probably the ladder. I 93 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: mean it's isn't a team that does a lot of 94 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: new things from week to week. It's you know, look 95 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: at one game and say like, oh, it looks a 96 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: lot different than some other game. Um, you know, they 97 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: have they're they're pretty steady really in their personnel groups 98 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: and they're and their calls, you know, I mean, they 99 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 1: have a little you know, variations you know from time 100 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: to time or you know, certain situations. But yeah, generally speaking, 101 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: they they played their system. It's balanced, they mix it up. 102 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: You know, they brings some secondary pressure, but you know, 103 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: not an in ordinate amount. But you know, enough to 104 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: keep you honest. Most of these own mix a man 105 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: and then when I play man and they get into 106 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: packages that they have good man to man players on 107 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: the field. So yeah, Lose Lose does a good job 108 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: with you know, mixing things up, and they you know, 109 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: they kind of have their system of doing things and 110 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: they do it pretty well. They're along, they get their 111 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: hands on some balls, you know, a couple of tip 112 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: passes for interceptions, things like that. I do a good 113 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: job throwing around those guys, especially the ends, but I 114 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: mean they're big upfront, you know, read or hill and 115 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: those guys, I mean there's not an easy group to 116 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: throw it with, you know, power rush and then the 117 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: edge guys come you know, squeeze the pocket and so 118 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: they do a good job with one of you were 119 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: practice this week, Um is today's strictly an early down day, 120 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: pretty involvedmore third down and we'll really hear it. Yeah, 121 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: So we have two days to work, three days in two, 122 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: so push a little bit into today and push a 123 00:07:55,240 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: little bit intomorrow and three into two. That's what it is. 124 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: So yeah, we'll do some of the things we would 125 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: do on Thursday and Friday. We'll move to Wednesday. Some 126 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: of the things that we would do on Friday would 127 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: move to Thursday. And that's it's about it. How much 128 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: of a since have you been able to get on 129 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: how the players have come back to work in terms 130 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: of putting the last game behind them, just given the 131 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: way that an ended. I try we tried to do do 132 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: every week. Have you been able to get a sense 133 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: of how they are? Is it too early cause you 134 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: haven't practiced yet here Monday and heard today? What has 135 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: to happen through passing office to be more efficient you 136 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: know this weekend in the final three games. Yeah, it's 137 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: a better better skation, better consistency, better all the way around. 138 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: I don't think it's any one thing. It was sort 139 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: of just an outlier day in terms of completion percentage 140 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: for Mac. We're just wondering was there any thing that 141 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: was um sort of easily identifiable in terms of his 142 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: mechanics that he can work on this weeven I mean, 143 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: there's always things that everybody can improve on every week, 144 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: So I just point those on the film and try 145 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: to correct them. Move on. I mean that's players, coaches, 146 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: every position. That's why it always is how often to 147 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: the court of it you know it's a unique position. 148 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: Not a lot of guys are. But how frequently are 149 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: mechanics part of the daily work on the field for 150 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: you guys every day? Is that something what we see 151 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: early on and practice somewhere out there sometimes like Mary 152 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: started practice. You know, it's generally the way all practice 153 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: or discussure do. Then the usual work at the beginning. 154 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: Then you do your group work and then teamwork or 155 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: maybe a bigger group work like seven and seven and 156 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: nine on seven. Ye build from individual to smaller groups, 157 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: the bigger groups to a team. That's the way we've 158 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: always done it. That's that's too good teaching progression, whether 159 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: that's training camp, as in game, running game, whatever it is.
