1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,200
Speaker 1: Coach working to London.

2
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 2: First of all, when we look at a guy like

3
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 2: Travis Hunter, I know a lot of UK fans will

4
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 2: be interested to see such a unique player come over here.

5
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,040
Speaker 2: As as far as coaching is concerned, there's no real

6
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 2: blueprints for a player like this. How are you enjoying

7
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 2: the challenge of working out how to work.

8
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: With him, how best to use him, how not to

9
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: use them? How are you enjoining that challenge? Is it fun? Challenging? Yeah,

10
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: it is.

11
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 3: It's I mean that's a lot of reason why you coaches,

12
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 3: as you mentioned, is to accept challenges, try to overcome challenges,

13
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 3: and Travis is no different as you mentioned. And so

14
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 3: it's been the scheduling all the way from the beginning

15
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 3: to on the plane ride out here Monday night. We

16
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 3: were sitting on the plane going over any tweaks to

17
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 3: the schedule we may be making this week. So it's

18
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 3: every day, it's it's a great challenge for us. It

19
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 3: keeps everybody really having to be on it in terms

20
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 3: of the schedule, his position, coaches, athletic training, media, everybody

21
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 3: has to be involved in the process. And when you're

22
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 3: working with a guy that does love football and does

23
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,559
Speaker 3: love to to work.

24
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: He loves to play.

25
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 3: He loves to play the game, and you really want

26
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 3: to help people like that, and and that's somebody that

27
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 3: is ultimately going to continue, I think, to get better

28
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 3: and better each week. But it has been a fun

29
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: challenge thus far.

30
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: Why have the Rams been so consistent under Sean mcday?

31
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: What is what is he built there? It gives him

32
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: the ability to consistently play to at least ten wins

33
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: every year.

34
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you guys know the respect I have for Sean.

35
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 3: I think he is just as good, if not better,

36
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 3: of a coach. After maybe a tough game, whether it's

37
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: a tough output for one side of the ball, a loss,

38
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 3: I just feel like he that's when he's at his

39
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 3: best in terms of being able to still put confidence

40
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 3: into the guys, the building, the staff, the culture.

41
00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what.

42
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 3: His record is after a loss, which you know that

43
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: has a lot to do with determining coaches' successes, I

44
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 3: think in a lot of ways, but in terms of

45
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 3: his ability to get the guys up every single week,

46
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 3: I think it's pretty cool. And the way he addresses

47
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: the players, the way that he handles the players, the staff,

48
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 3: the coaches from a positive, you know, state of mind,

49
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 3: but also the standards, the demand, the way that he

50
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: ultimately wants that team to play. It shows up every

51
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 3: single week and win, loser, draw.

52
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: They play hard quarterback because you coached him. Obviously, I've

53
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: heard your admiration for him.

54
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 4: What particular challenges is Anthony and his staff half against

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 4: the guy like Zaffer.

56
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't trust those eyes now, don't trust his eyes.

57
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,399
Speaker 1: But we've talked to it's his full.

58
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 3: Command of the operation that ultimately we have to be

59
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 3: great with our disguises, we have to be great with

60
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: our spot drop coverages.

61
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: We've got to try to affect the.

62
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 3: Pocket obviously in a lot of ways. But he has

63
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 3: such a great way of dissecting pre snap and then

64
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 3: operating post snap like he sees it pre snap, he

65
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: can then can things fix the protections, get.

66
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: You in a better football play.

67
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,839
Speaker 3: But then okay, post snap, it's his ability to then

68
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 3: see areas, see coverages, but also just see open spots

69
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 3: on the field, not necessarily just looking at receivers. That's

70
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: what makes Matthew so special. And so those details for us,

71
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 3: the pre snap, what does it look like, the discipline

72
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 3: in our drops the discipline and our ability to work

73
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 3: our games in stunts and pressures.

74
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: That's gonna be huge.

75
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 4: This weekne right now and then another tough matchup up front.

76
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think those guys are. I talked to Anton, taught

77
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 3: to some.

78
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: Of those guys.

79
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 3: They're they're very eager, I think for the challenge to

80
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 3: step up. You know, each week you face an opportunity

81
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 3: in this league up front to see some of the

82
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 3: best pass rushers and whether it's individuals, whether it's a

83
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 3: crew of them, whether it's scheme. We've seen some good

84
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 3: stuff and so we've protected at a high level in

85
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 3: a lot of ways. Last week was a tough go,

86
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 3: so they know, we all know it takes truly, not

87
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 3: just those guys up front. We've got to help them

88
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 3: and have a responsibility as coaches, but also hey, stepping

89
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 3: up to the plate and worrying about us. Let's go

90
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: get better at our sets, the way that we slide

91
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 3: and pass protection, the way that we protect our fundamentals,

92
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: our techniques, and worry about those things and not so

93
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,119
Speaker 3: much the guys that we're playing against.

94
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 4: Trevor's numbers have been better in the last three games.

95
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 4: Is that as a sign that doesn't thinkative of how

96
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 4: he's grown in your system right now or how he's

97
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 4: playing last couple of weeks.

98
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 3: I do think that there is There's definitely been improvements

99
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 3: in a lot of ways. I mean, you look at

100
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 3: his ability to still you know, use his legs in

101
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 3: some areas. I thought there was some really good moments

102
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 3: of being able to place some things off schedule, make

103
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 3: some plays. You know, We've got to continue to help

104
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: them create you know, one on one opportunities down the

105
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 3: field to be able to push it down there. But

106
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 3: I do think there's been improvement. I think he has

107
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 3: confidence right now. I do so hopefully we continue to

108
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 3: see that growth this week, because, like we told the team,

109
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 3: all of this week is about us.

110
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: It's about our preparation, our operation.

111
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 3: Let's get better at the controllables and see how mentally

112
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 3: tough we are.

113
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: How do you clean that up? How do you?

114
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah?

115
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 3: Well, we tip you know, we typically do game wreckers

116
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 3: today and talk, you know, just talk about the opponent

117
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 3: a little bit and introduce that we know who their

118
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 3: good players are and have a lot of respect for them.

119
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: But the message this morning was we've been our game wreckers,

120
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 3: you know, in a lot of ways. We played some

121
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 3: really good opponents, and we have a lot of respect

122
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 3: for those opponents.

123
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: But until we.

124
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 3: Look at ourselves and fix our mistakes, it doesn't matter

125
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 3: who we're playing. So that's been the message. That was

126
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: the message this morning and the team meeting or today,

127
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 3: and how much can we go out and create our

128
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 3: own energy out here in a long walkthrough where you've

129
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 3: got to stay mentally locked in and focused in discipline

130
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: and detailed throughout in a course of this day, after travel,

131
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 3: after jet lag, after whatever. It is, no excuses, Let's

132
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 3: go to work and prepare the best week we've had

133
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 3: from a preparation standpoint, and go play to not try to.

134
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: Do too much, you know that.

135
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 3: I think some of that did show up a little

136
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 3: bit on Sunday where it's one of those tight ball games.

137
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 3: You're back and forth, you're struggling to maybe make some

138
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: things happen in some ways, and guys maybe try to

139
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 3: go outside of all right, the routes at fifteen, I

140
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 3: need to run at twenty because of this or that,

141
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 3: or I got to make a play, and some of

142
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 3: that stuff starts to happen. It's natural, but we need

143
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 3: to let the game also come to us that way

144
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 3: and not try to press and do too much.

145
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 4: Missing or how much is there with Travis in more

146
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 4: of the explosive game, be able to get more out

147
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 4: of the reps that he's getting on the offensive side.

148
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 3: Of the Yeah, I mean, I think it's obviously, you know,

149
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 3: scheming them open is part of it. Is the number

150
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: one is my job, ultimately, our job as an offensive

151
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 3: staff to make sure we're putting him in the progression

152
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 3: and putting them in the position to be number one

153
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 3: as you know a little bit more often in some ways.

154
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: And then when he is the primary, you know, we

155
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 3: got to throw him catch, you know, we've got to

156
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 3: make sure that we identify it, find them be able

157
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: to be at the right spot at the right.

158
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: Time from it.

159
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 3: We just had this conversation, So it's I think it's

160
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 3: a combination of a lot of those things that ultimately

161
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 3: can all be controlled.

162
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: Right.

163
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 3: We can't always say the ball is going to get

164
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: thrown to one person based on any play unless it's

165
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 3: just they're spitting it to him and giving them a

166
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: ball in hand touch down the field. There's elements to that,

167
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 3: especially when you're not getting a lot of one on

168
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: one man coverage, which last week in Seattle was all

169
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 3: shell cover, two soft, kind of letting nothing get behind them.

170
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 3: So that's got to be a little bit predicated on

171
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: what we're seeing, but also making sure we're doing our

172
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 3: jobs as coaches, and he's doing his job to be

173
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 3: in the right spot at the right time, and Trevor's

174
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 3: able to deliver it.

175
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: Because it's great protection. It's all it takes, all of them.

176
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 2: Did you want to swat spots your previous spadi it's

177
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 2: that trips overseas to play games over head.

178
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

179
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 3: In twenty nineteen, was able to come out here with

180
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:30,239
Speaker 3: the Rams and that was a cool experience. We stayed here,

181
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 3: practiced here, was able to get down. You know, I

182
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 3: loved London. It's my wife's favorite city. She's out shopping currently,

183
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: so I'm.

184
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: Really excited to see what that looks like.

185
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 3: But you know, and then this organization has done this

186
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: for a long time, and there's a lot of there's

187
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 3: pride in this trip for us. You know, our owner,

188
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 3: our ownership, it means a lot to him and how

189
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 3: his presence is in this city as well, and so

190
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: if he has pride in it, we have pride in

191
00:08:58,840 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 3: it as well.

192
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: And I think our player and staff.

193
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: Members that put this whole thing together take a lot

194
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 3: of pride in what they're doing, and so it's a

195
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 3: great experience and opportunity for us.

196
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: You mentioned jetnag earlier obviously last year a hurricane and

197
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 2: delayed your progress over to these shows. You've been right

198
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 2: this time last and earlier on the Tuesday. The Rams

199
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: are getting here until Saturday. Do you think that gives

200
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 2: the Jackson's voltage?

201
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: I don't know.

202
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 3: I mean I fully understand, like I'm you know, working

203
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: with Sean, knowing their sports science behind why they are

204
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 3: leaving later, and we, you know, had the same opportunity

205
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 3: to make that decision, and we just chose to come.

206
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: A little bit earlier.

207
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 3: It's more so because we've got to buy afterwards, and

208
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 3: so we can not have to deal with getting back

209
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 3: into our time zone as quickly as we would need

210
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 3: to if we were playing a game the following week.

211
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 1: So isn't an advantage. I don't know.

212
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 3: There's sports science that kind of supports both, and so

213
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 3: I just thought it was a great opportunity for our

214
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 3: guys to get here, you know, be able to be

215
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,719
Speaker 3: together a little bit more have a little bit more continuity.

216
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 3: It just came at the right time after a loss,

217
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 3: and our guys are excited, I think to be able

218
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 3: to play out here and be in that stadium playing

219
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 3: on Sunday special teams.

220
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 2: Can you just talk a little bit about what he brings.

221
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: It to them. Yeah, he's Ray's got some swagger. Man.

222
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: He plays the game very you know, violently.

223
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 3: He's obviously a tough kid and what he's obviously gone

224
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 3: through to in high school to college to get to

225
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 3: where he's at. He takes a lot of pride in

226
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 3: what he does and he knows he's a he's a

227
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 3: darn good player.

228
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: He's got confidence right now.

229
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 3: The players in that room, that unit also believe in

230
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 3: him at a high level. And so, man, the who

231
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 3: knows where the ceiling is right in terms of what

232
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 3: he can be in terms of a special team's UH

233
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 3: player in this league.

234
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: I think he takes it per.

235
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 3: Arsenal when he's getting double teamed and be able to

236
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 3: beat those things, and when he is getting one on

237
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 3: one opportunities down the field, he's taking advantage of him.

238
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 1: So been really pleased with Ray.

239
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: Him because the Service Academy, it's kind of tough to

240
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 2: find the gems out of those places.

241
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: It was kind of wild.

242
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 3: He I think he forced and he forced like some

243
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 3: ridiculous amount of turnovers coming out of out of Navy

244
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 3: in terms of like whether it was punching them out,

245
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 3: causing them falling on them. He just disrupted a lot

246
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 3: on his tape. So for us, I know, James was

247
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 3: high on him very early on. It was somebody that

248
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 3: we had targeted very early on that they had their

249
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 3: eyes on. And sometimes you're like, well, is the jew like,

250
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 3: is he gonna be able to get on defense and

251
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 3: you know this year and help us? But man, it's

252
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 3: it's a great pick, I think, and a great player

253
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 3: for us. So it was a little bit, you know,

254
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 3: challenging to go through the process a little bit just

255
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 3: watching it and going through the tape, But man, he

256
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 3: did so many good things that they're a well coached

257
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 3: operation there in Navy.

258
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 4: I mean, when you're making a game plan against an

259
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 4: organization that obviously know really well, do you feel like

260
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 4: that's a pro or can it kind of be a

261
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 4: con because you know what Sean.

262
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: Knows what you know.

263
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's definitely a little bit of that chess match

264
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 3: to it in terms of the familiarity factor. But they've

265
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 3: evolved a little bit over the last few years. We've

266
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 3: definitely evolved in some different ways, whether it was last

267
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 3: year in Tampa, this year in Jacksonville. It's not identical

268
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 3: to theirs, and they're not, as you know, identical to ours,

269
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 3: so there's different wrinkles. But I do think, you know,

270
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 3: we both probably know some of the details in which

271
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 3: maybe you can affect the protection or be able to

272
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 3: blitz to stop an open side run or a closed

273
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 3: side run.

274
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: I think there's some of that that definitely goes into it.

275
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 3: I was meeting with Camping the defensive staff for a

276
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 3: little while last night, just watching their tape, going through

277
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 3: some of the thought process and detail of maybe their

278
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 3: scheme and how they're running the play, just so that

279
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 3: they get a little bit more insight. So many of

280
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 3: the ballplays are similar.

281
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: That you see each week.

282
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 3: What makes Sean and those guys, I think different. It

283
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 3: is just the details that go into it and the

284
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 3: amount of how specific emotions are, how efficient they are

285
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 3: at their operation pre snap identifying it what they're looking

286
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 3: for maybe in some of these plays, whether they're can

287
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 3: to run or Canada Pass, Canada screens, whatever it is.

288
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 3: I think that's where he has a notch above.

289
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: Adapted to being a mentor to Travis on and off

290
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 2: the field.

291
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they do spend a pretty good amount

292
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 3: of time together throughout the course of the day, whether

293
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 3: it's in the meeting setting, whether it's at the walkthroughs,

294
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 3: whether it's post practice one on one. I think a

295
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 3: pretty cool moment was last week going into Kansas City

296
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 3: two weeks ago. Now, they had missed on a throw

297
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 3: in practice a few times, and then Travis and Trevor

298
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 3: stayed afterwards through it five times till they got it right.

299
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 3: And then it came to life on the catch that

300
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: Travis made jumping up in the air against Kansas City.

301
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 3: And so that connection hopefully continuing to get fostered, that relationship,

302
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 3: And I think Trevor's a unique leader in the way

303
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 3: that he's He's able to give such great insight for

304
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: a younger guy, if you will. I mean, he's kind

305
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 3: of mature beyond his ears in so many ways, So

306
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 3: sometimes I feel like he's a little bit more mature

307
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 3: than me. So no, he's I think that relationship is

308
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 3: getting better and better
