And I'm sure there's things that we got 36 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 4: to apply our rules for things that they've done studies 37 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 4: in the off season defensively, So that's just part of it. 38 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 5: Week one. 39 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, if that wasn't there isayas do you feel like 40 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 8: there are so many different playmakers that you do have 41 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 8: that as far as dealing with that, there are a 42 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 8: lot of different. 43 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 9: Ways you can go. 44 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 8: It's a little bit easier maybe in some places where 45 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 8: it's miss key guys and you're really get hamstrung. 46 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 4: No, I feel good about our guys, the guys that 47 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 4: will suit up Sunday and now I'll be ready to go. 48 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 2: There's a lot of focus on Martin Andrews with the 49 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: way the game was played there last year as a quarterator. 50 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 9: How do you how do you kind of. 51 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 7: Does that influence at all what you're doing in terms. 52 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,959 Speaker 4: Of No, I mean Mark's is a great player, has 53 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 4: been a great player, has made a number of great 54 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 4: plays for us. That's not why we lost the game. 55 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 4: Mark Andrews is not the reason we lost the game. 56 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 5: So did I not answer the question writer?

Seriously, Lamar documate ballway and what 67 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 2: do you think happened in that game that they turnovers kind. 68 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: Of all come out at their own time. 69 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 4: I don't know, cause we've won other big games where 70 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 4: we didn't turn it over, So you know, That's that's 71 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 4: why you gotta win a lot of big games to 72 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 4: get to where we were at the last couple of years. 73 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 4: I've been here, uh without turning it over, and you 74 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 4: got to do it in the playoffs.

I'm happy with camp. 187 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 12: It's been one of the best camps that've been a 188 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 12: part of here, So very pleased with how that went. 189 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 17: So I've spent a lot of time throughout camp theory, 190 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 17: but how good this defense can be? 191 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 6: Knowing how for you guys started last year, is there 192 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:27,679 Speaker 6: just an excitement you show. 193 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 15: What you can do with this group and just get out. 194 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 10: There and go play football. 195 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think it's it's excitement just because it's it's 196 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 12: the start of a new journey, and you know every 197 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 12: year is different. We feel like we can we can 198 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 12: be very good, but we got to go out there 199 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 12: and go do it. So I think that's what that's 200 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 12: the exciting part of it is. Now we're putting a 201 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 12: lot of work. The guys have worked so hard. Man, 202 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 12: it can't be you know, proud of those guys enough, 203 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 12: but they're putting the work. 204 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 3: So now it's time to go out there and go 205 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 3: do it. 206 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 12: You know, everything that we've done up to this point, 207 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 12: you know, it really hasn't counted. You know, it hasn't 208 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 12: counted on the scoreboard. It's counted, you know, for us 209 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 12: building what we want to build. But now it's time 210 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 12: to go do it. So I think our guys, I know, 211 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 12: we're excited to go out there and go show the 212 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 12: work that we put in and get off to a 213 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 12: good start. 214 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 2: Chris along those lines, you know that comes out as 215 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: most right away. He knows so as a as a starter, 216 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 2: how much curiosity do you have? And seen where that 217 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 2: get translated over to the regular season, and then I 218 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: guess what is the value of having, you know, kind 219 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: of backed up like sy CFF City spot. 220 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 3: Oh man, I'm fully confident in Malac. I can't wait 221 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 3: for him to go out there and go play a 222 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 3: full game. 223 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 12: I mean, he played a little bit in the preseason, 224 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 12: but he didn't play a lot of snaps. Like I said, 225 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 12: you know, it'll be interesting how he goes out there 226 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 12: and go do I know how, I know how I 227 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 12: feel like. 228 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 3: He's gonna do. 229 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 12: I think he's gonna play really well for us. He's 230 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 12: done great in camp, he's done great in practice. I'm 231 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 12: like saying he doesn't he doesn't play like a rookie. 232 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 12: He doesn't you know, act like a rookie. But you know, 233 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 12: like we said, this is week one, so it's this 234 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 12: is gonna be his first professional game. We got to 235 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:51,599 Speaker 12: go out there and go see him do it. But 236 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 12: I'm confident that he will go out there and go 237 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 12: play great football for us. You know, like I said, 238 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 12: he played early at Georgia, so this is nothing new 239 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,119 Speaker 12: for him, and then as far as guys like Sanousie 240 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 12: that that's been in the system, he's done a great 241 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 12: job for us as well, So fully confidence in him 242 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 12: if he has to go out there, Zach, you haven't. 243 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 16: Been a former player yourself. 244 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 17: It's no secret around the league, not just here, that 245 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 17: fewer and pure starters units are playing in the preseason. 246 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 17: From a defensive standpoint, how much is there to that 247 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 17: concern or I guess the unknown of guys that haven't 248 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 17: truly formed tackled to the ground since last January, And 249 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 17: you know that just the challenge of that when you 250 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 17: know you're going up against a formidable. 251 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 12: Offense, that's definitely a challenge because there's nothing like I mean, 252 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 12: playing tackle football. You have to actually go out there 253 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 12: and tackle to get get better at tackling, you know, 254 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 12: we do. I feel like coaches have done a great 255 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 12: job with the drills. 256 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 3: We've drilled the. 257 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 12: Mess out of out of tackling drills. We've tried to 258 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 12: simulate taking guys to the ground. So I think we've 259 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 12: done as best a job as we could, you know, 260 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 12: simulating tackling. But also, like you just said, first game 261 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 12: of the season, you know you never know. That is 262 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 12: something that you have on my mind and we sit 263 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 12: there and say, we gotta we got to go out 264 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,839 Speaker 12: there and do the little things, and tackling is a 265 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 12: thing that we got to do well if we want 266 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 12: to win. 267 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 3: On Sunday, a lot of people are trying to I mean, 268 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 3: move bast last year's game. It's a new season and 269 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 3: all that one. 270 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the team you played last year. 271 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 14: At the end, what are you defensively? 272 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 8: What are your kind of biggest takeaways from that game? 273 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 12: The biggest takeaway from the game was they beat us 274 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 12: man and they controlled They controlled the clock, and they 275 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 12: controlled the football and they didn't turn the football over. 276 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 12: So you know, we have to definitely force them to 277 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 12: play the game on our terms. 278 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 3: It's not easy to do. You know, they're one of 279 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 3: the top offenses in the league. 280 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 12: But we didn't do what we need to do from 281 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 12: a fundamental standpoint and attacking the ball. So we got 282 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 12: to be better job at doing that, and you know, 283 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 12: we look forward to that. 284 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 16: With the total body of the two games against the Buffalo, 285 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,599 Speaker 16: I'm sure when you zeroed in on how you go 286 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 16: serve executed the plan that you wanted to against Josh 287 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 16: Allen particularly, did you think you did a pretty good 288 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 16: job of doing what you wanted to do against them? 289 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 12: I would say the first game, yes, because we won. 290 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 12: The second game, no, because we lost. Real simple, man. 291 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 12: I mean, you know, he didn't have to the second game, 292 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 12: He didn't have to do a lot to to beat us. 293 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 12: So I can't look at that and say we did 294 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 12: a good job against him because he didn't have to 295 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 12: go crazy for them to win the game. 296 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: They found other ways to win. 297 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,719 Speaker 12: I think that's a testament to good quarterbacks, you know, 298 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 12: taking what the defense gives you, if you feel like 299 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 12: you got the game in control, not losing the game, 300 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 12: and not putting the ball in harm's way. 301 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 3: And that's what he did. 302 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 12: So, you know he said every every year is different. 303 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 12: We've played them quite a bit. We understand the type 304 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 12: of player he is and what type of offense they have, 305 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,839 Speaker 12: and we got to find a way to not only 306 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 12: slow him down and stop him, but also the other 307 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 12: skill players that they have on their roster. 308 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 2: I know you're an NBA guy, and you know a 309 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: lot to talk about defenses are only as strong as 310 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: ever just link. Do you think a similar dynamic isn't 311 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: playing the NFL or is. 312 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 3: A kind of different game with. 313 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 12: I think it's definitely a similar dynamic because just when 314 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 12: you have a team sport, you know obviously teams they're 315 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 12: gonna attack. 316 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 3: Where they feel like you're weak at. 317 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 12: So if they feel like you're weak in a certain 318 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 12: area and you are weak there, you know it's not 319 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 12: a good thing. But if you really don't show any 320 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 12: weaknesses or don't have a weakness, or if they try 321 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 12: to think that they have a weak spot and that's 322 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 12: actually not a weak spot, then it plays in your favor. 323 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 12: But I definitely think that plays now, not as much 324 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 12: in basketball though basketball they could really single you out 325 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 12: and do some real damage to you for real, and 326 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 12: you can't really get no help out there, just or 327 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 12: as a coach. 328 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 11: Just after Marlin entered as a rookie, but I just 329 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 11: wanted to know what was your first impression of him, 330 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 11: and do you have any kind of good anecdotis that 331 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 11: stood out to you both from his early days and 332 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 11: now you've got to know him more and more. 333 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 12: Man, Marlin, He's the first thing that stood out to me, 334 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 12: is this dude here here a rough rider on that field. 335 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 3: I'm a nice guy. 336 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 12: Great guy, goofy guy off the field, but when he 337 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 12: hits that field and he puts those pads on, he's 338 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 12: gonna go one hundred miles per hour and he's not 339 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 12: gonna care who he hits. He's gonna hit somebody. And 340 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 12: that was kind of you know, you don't see that 341 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 12: much from the defensive back, especially corner what he what 342 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 12: he started out as. But just really seeing his growth 343 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 12: and maturity. I think I think Marlin had the benefit 344 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 12: of when he came here, he had a lot of 345 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 12: older VET guys around him like Ludarius Web, Brandon Carr, 346 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 12: Jimmy Smith, Eric Weddle, Tony Jefferson, Anthony Levine, all these guys, 347 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 12: and now he's that guy for a lot of the 348 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 12: younger players. So just to see his maturity, his his 349 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 12: growth on and off the field, and to see him 350 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 12: that he's still playing at a high level and you're not. 351 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 12: I still think he's underrated as a player in this league. 352 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 12: So I'm excited to see what he does this year. 353 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 12: But his growth and maturity throughout these years, since the 354 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 12: time I've known him, has been tremendous. 355 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 18: For you You think, you know, year ago at this 356 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 18: point going into your first time as a d C 357 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 18: to now you have got the year on your belt. 358 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 18: How different are these weeks from a year ago to 359 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 18: now to this one as you get ready for week one? 360 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 12: It's funny because I was it's a it's a little 361 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 12: different because I I kind of know how to what 362 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 12: to expect and temper my emotions. I would take my 363 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 12: inner emotions. But every every issue it's game week. 364 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 9: Man. 365 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 12: You know, it's exciting. Every week it brings its own challenge. 366 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 12: Every every year brings its own challenge.

Obviously last year was was was a good 369 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 12: experience for me, so you know, I don't think me personally. 370 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 12: It's a lot of things that you can throw at 371 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 12: us that I won't be prepared for. 372 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: But you know, we'll see. 373 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 12: It's always, you know, teams and offenses always getting together 374 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 12: an offseason, scheming and huddling up ways they can get 375 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 12: over on this defensive guys, So you know, we'll see 376 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 12: what they got Sunday, Rookie, where'd you. 377 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 4: See from them that made them a good fit for 378 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 4: your defense? 379 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 12: And did you see some of yourself and their journey definitely, man, 380 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 12: all three of those guys, Hats off to them, key 381 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 12: On Martin, Ruben Lowry, and Jay Higgins.
