1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Oh, definitely. Uh. In this division, you know you got

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: the Colts that run the ball well. You got the

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: texting to run the ball well, and Tennessee run the

4
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,960
Speaker 1: ball well. So you know, we're got some big guys

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: up front and they know in our division you're gonna

6
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 1: have to stand up up front. How tough is it

7
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: to go against the quarterback? It's only been with the

8
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 1: team or maybe two weeks now, played one games, only

9
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: three fifty six passes and his career, how tough is

10
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: that to go get stops? It's really Uh. You go

11
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: back in this coaches, you always wanna turn over every stone.

12
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: And we went back, watched preseason, We played him in

13
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: the preseason, and just go back and you talk to

14
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: you know, many people as you can, and you just

15
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: study the film. You go back with our scouting department.

16
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: He was here for a while, so we have a

17
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: good feel of what the type of person is. You know,

18
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,919
Speaker 1: right off the bat, real smart kid, um handles their

19
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: system well, athletic can make the throw. So it's a

20
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: challenge for us. You go back to college at all

21
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: with him or do you just stay could possibly well,

22
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: my wife went to the University of Tennessee so I

23
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: try to stay away from that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

24
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,199
Speaker 1: It might go back to the first type game. Um

25
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: that started this whole four hay win streak or whatever,

26
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: the hit that Shack put on Henry that popped the

27
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: ball loose, that kind of turned the game a little bit.

28
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: Is that kind of you look at that one specific

29
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: plays maybe a little bit of a turning point for

30
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: this defense or a turning point for the season for

31
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: the team. When when you look at it, Uh, in

32
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: the first quarter, we didn't play the way we were

33
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: supposed to play, and Shaq came in and it was

34
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: an opportunity for him to get on the field, and

35
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: he got there and he made a huge play for us,

36
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: momentum changing play, and I think that did spark us.

37
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: And we've had guys like that all year step up,

38
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: you know, do he steps up? You know, even thinking

39
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: about Smoot and Key, just other guys step up in.

40
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's a team where everybody has to pitch

41
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: in and do their part. And when guys get the chances, uh,

42
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: you know, we've been lucky they're being able to play well.

43
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: Is that usually kind of the way it goes sometimes too?

44
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: When you a guy that doesn't really get a chance

45
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: to play much makes a big play that it sort

46
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: of energizes everybody. Well, the thing about it is, you

47
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: know when you're a starter, you're a starter. When you're

48
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 1: a backup, you want to be that starter and all

49
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: the backup for a while in the league, and you

50
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: understand that. When you get that opportunity, you know it's

51
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: you're given everything you've got. And Shacks that type of player.

52
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: He's the guy that come to work every day. He

53
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: gets better and he works on his craft. He's improved

54
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,839
Speaker 1: playing special teams. He makes play when he's out there.

55
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: So guys know that, and guys pull for guys that

56
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: I want a chance, and he's one of those guys.

57
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: And you can see that when it happened on the sideline.

58
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: You can see the energy of everybody understanding that he

59
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: made a play for So let's take advantage of it.

60
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: The way you guys stop the run of the second

61
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: half of that game in the last three quarters, does

62
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:54,399
Speaker 1: any of that carry over can carry over there? Well,

63
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: you go back and you look at it and you

64
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: understand when it didn't work in the first half, the

65
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: mistakes you made, you correct those and you go out

66
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 1: and just trust your technique. You go out there and

67
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: understand you're supposed to be in the gap and it's

68
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: your job of getting the gap. Understand your technique, getting

69
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 1: the gap in. When you get there, everybody in their

70
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: gaps and the defense will be successful. That was a

71
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: big difference be in the first quarter was gap sounds.

72
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: It's always you know it's a gap sound. This understanding

73
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: the scheme and guys playing with emotion, playing with excitement.

74
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: Now we do that, We play hard, and we just

75
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 1: have to make sure that we're doing it all eleving

76
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: on the same page at the same time. How does

77
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: it change your approach if any Uh with the Titans

78
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: playing jobs as opposed to Tannehill, who's sort of been

79
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: a fixture there for a while. Now, Well, you go back,

80
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: you look at it, Uh Tannehill, uh former receiver in college.

81
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: He's a mobile quarterback. All three of them are mobile quarterbacks.

82
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: So the same element of quarterback running game. You have

83
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: to be prepared for it. But you just go back

84
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: and you look arm strength. Tan Hill has it, Leek

85
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: has it, Dobs has it. So their NFL quarterbacks and

86
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: you just have to understand that they can make all

87
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: the NFL throws and they can hurt you with their legs.

88
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: So we understand that just have to have a good

89
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: plan for it. Do you think it makes Derrick Henry

90
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: less effective in play action or makes their play action

91
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit less affective with having a guy

92
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: who's only had one NFL career start as opposed to

93
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: somebody like Tannehill who's got plenty of them. I don't

94
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: think so. When you look at the game, like you see,

95
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: they're still running their offense, and their offensive based off

96
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: of Derrick Henry and he runs the ball, and off

97
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: of that, you're geared up to stop the run. So

98
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: play asking becomes uh something that you want to do.

99
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: And I think they will continue to do it. But

100
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: we have to understand that we have to have our

101
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 1: eyes in the right place, read our keys and getting

102
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: our gaps, but also understand see what gets us out

103
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: of our gaps. Start. What did you learn from the

104
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: scouting party any house about times? Really, I didn't go

105
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: to them, they came to us. And that's that's the

106
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,119
Speaker 1: thing about in the NFL. There's we all worked us together,

107
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: the scouting department. We went back and they did the

108
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: research of when they scouted and coming out of college,

109
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: and they just brought the information, whatever scores, whatever he

110
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: did well in college. Now we put together the cut

111
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: ups of him and to precede and things like that,

112
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: so we have a good understanding of what he does.

113
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, they'll have a plan.

114
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: We'll have a plan, will make adjustments. They'll make adjustments,

115
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: and you go out there, let's go, oh yeah, it

116
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: looks like he's gonna leave the league in tackling for

117
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: the second year in a row. How helpful is it

118
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: to have a guy like that on defense? It's always good,

119
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: just like uh, having a strong quarterback out there. It

120
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: builds confidence with the team. We have a strong defensive

121
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: leader and it just builds confidence. If I always called it, uh,

122
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: he's an e racer. If a guy makes a mistake

123
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: or a guy is out of a certain gap, he

124
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: can erase that mistake. And that's what linebackers are doing

125
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: and he's one of the best. Do you think he

126
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: gets the perspect around the NFL? No, mhm, No, it

127
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: looks like that guys have been playing with a little

128
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: bit more swag in the recent weeks. You guy Calevan

129
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: dancing after the sack. He got Tyson righting. I guess

130
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: it was a bull, It might have been a horse.

131
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 1: Whatever he was doing, Just what do you think has

132
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: kind of been the spark for that? I think guys

133
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: are just enjoying being around each other, and they're growing

134
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 1: closer together, and they're playing for one another. And when

135
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: you play for your brother next to you, it just

136
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: excitement just picks up. And this day and the age,

137
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: everybody wants to celebrate. I don't know if Tyson was

138
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: riding a bike or a horse or something. He might

139
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: have been dancing, but we want to see him dancing more.

140
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: I need to give him some dance dance lessons up

141
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: Trevo Walker, you're playing him more with the hand in

142
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: the dirt. Do you see some growth from him? There

143
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: is that a comfort thing or do you just see

144
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: that that's where he's at his best right now. I

145
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: think when you look at it at the outside linebacker,

146
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: you have the ability to stand up and the two

147
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: point or go down to a three point wherever he's

148
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: comfortable getting off the ball, that's what he's doing. Um,

149
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: you're seeing just his overall growth of the player. He's

150
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: continued to improve. Uh, it was good to get him

151
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: back last week, and you know we're looking for a

152
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: good things out of him this week. Can you get

153
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: any thought who switching to four three through forward like

154
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: not this week? Fortally and that potextual for getting your

155
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,280
