1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: How's everything going. Good to see you all righty, here

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:11,479
Speaker 1: we go a ventful game for your guys. Something that

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: that's sequenced there and you just take us through that

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 1: from the pumping down the one to the block and yeah,

5
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: you know it was a great pump by Riley. You're

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: talking about going from one extreme to the other. Right,

7
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: great pump by Riley down the ball the two yard line. Ah,

8
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: I had a call that could have went either way,

9
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 1: right they called it and uh and then come back

10
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: and and Josiah just I mean, just a simple day

11
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: one rush. There was nothing fancy about it too, just

12
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: came underneath thing you gotta beat. It's just you know,

13
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: it's another way you can just it's literally a simple

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: day one installation rush. We've seen since the spring, So,

15
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it happens. It trickled down from

16
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: Mobile Tree like like, uh, because David was playing more

17
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: or more. Joe has been in that Yeah, he's been

18
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: in that spot for eight weeks now, nine weeks. I

19
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: mean that that's you know, he knows it. Uh, it's

20
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: not an excuse and it's just something that you know,

21
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: it's part of his job. He knows. I I blocked

22
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: the two. I'm a tackle from day one when he

23
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: walked in here. That's what we started off, same exact look,

24
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: you know. So it's just unfortunate that it happened to him.

25
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: Josie is a great kid, and I promise you he's

26
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: learned from this mistake. What what happens along the sideline?

27
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: I mean you've got put in sixty two sixty three?

28
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: Does packed him over to you and say can he

29
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: make it? Or what's yeah? I mean we talked about

30
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: him the sideline and you know, I got full confidence

31
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: in Aldrick. I mean he can. He's a kid, has

32
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: strong leg I mean he I think sixty sixty five

33
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: he could. He could have made it, but you just

34
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: never know. It's you know, thirty something degrees out there

35
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: or whatever it was was cold, had a little win

36
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: in the face. Um, you know, you just if you

37
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: miss hit the ball and they got one of the

38
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: best returners in the league back there, and sim's you know,

39
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: the ball comes short and then you got your fat

40
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: guys on the field, right, So it's probably not a

41
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: good idea. They double both your wings or your fastest guys,

42
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: because that's what Nate Keyser does. He'll double both your

43
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: wings and then you got a fast guy back there

44
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: against your fat guys. You know, so it's not a

45
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: it's not a favorable UH situation. If the ball comes

46
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: up short and you just never know, you know, you're trying,

47
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 1: you miss hit the ball or whatever it is, ball

48
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 1: comes out lows tipped or whatever. That you know, bad

49
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: situation is probably a maybe chance that he makes the

50
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: makes the kick, but you know, you just you don't.

51
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: You don't want to take that chance. You know you're

52
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: going in overtime. You throw the heill Mary and get

53
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: out of it. Just curious. This is gonna be the

54
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: last time we talked to you this season. So what's

55
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: your overview of the special teams and how they did that? Jeremy,

56
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: Last year, you guys created really well. I didn't really well.

57
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: I think this year in coverage units, UH, we had

58
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: a couple of really just a few bad moments. It

59
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: seems like just Spider and the bat. Yeah. I mean

60
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: when you look at when you look at our group overall,

61
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: I think our coverage units have been pretty good for

62
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: the most part. Still got one more UH and the

63
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: return units have been have been good. H Obviously, we

64
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: felt like we left. We've left a lot of meat

65
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: on the bone as far as making plays in the

66
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: return you return game, Um, you know, coverage wise, again,

67
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: I thought we've been pretty good. Pun protection wise, obviously

68
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: you get too punch block that's not good. Um. You know,

69
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: field goal wise, I think we could have been better.

70
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: You know, we had some issues with our operation and

71
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: and just being consistent and we got to find that again,

72
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: um field with block wise, our guys have rushed hard

73
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: the whole year. So I mean, overall, I mean it's

74
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: been solid. You know, I think we could have been

75
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: better in spots. I think situational week sit situational week situationally,

76
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: we could have been better. Um A fat tongue, um.

77
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: But you know, overall, I think we were solid and

78
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: moving forward, I think that, you know what, the good

79
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 1: base of young guys that we have, having Riley, having

80
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: old Rick, having Colling and just being able to create

81
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: competition throughout the roster, I think we'll be better. Talking

82
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 1: about leaving meat on the bone in the return game,

83
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: how much of that is you just didn't have a returner, right,

84
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 1: I mean you just well, I'm going through like guys

85
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: in different parts of the season. Yeah, I mean, it's

86
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: that's always a fluid situation, you know. As far as returners, uh,

87
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: you know, everywhere I've been it's you know, if you

88
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: if you get a guy that's your guy, that's the guy,

89
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: and he can you can keep him through the whole season,

90
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: you're blessed. Right. It's not a lot of teams that

91
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: that have guys that and uh that are fortunate just

92
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: to have God dedicated to that one spot. And and

93
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: even if it is a lot of times he gets

94
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: damed up or you know what I mean. So that's

95
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 1: always that's something as a special Tims coach you're gonna

96
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: always have to deal with. But you know, I think

97
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: as far as just technique wise, execution wise more so

98
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: than personnel wise, that makes sense, right. I think there

99
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: are some things that that we did during the course

100
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 1: of this season, um that didn't help us because we

101
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: didn't execute at a higher level. That makes sense. As

102
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: far as getting down there and downs, I think Cody, uh,

103
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: you know, he's just fine starting to find a stride,

104
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,799
Speaker 1: you know. And that's the one thing about young players

105
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: in this league. A lot of times, you know, it

106
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 1: takes guys a while to figure out who they are

107
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: as players, and then once they find find out who

108
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: they are, they get comfortable in their role and then

109
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: now they just they just start to flourish. You know.

110
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: So he understands who he is, he knows what his

111
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: role is and out he could just step into that

112
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: role and feel comfortable in it and just be who

113
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: he is. Do you tell me how just to toget

114
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: about the season and you know, keep on working on

115
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 1: what Yeah? I think you know, he needs to finish strong,

116
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: you know, so uh this Sunday, whatever opportunities that we have,

117
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: you know, he needs to finish strong in those opportunities,

118
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: and then this offseason just regroup. You know. I think

119
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: going into next year having the same battery guys together

120
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: and making sure we get a good offseason together. Excuse me,

121
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: I think it'll be uh more advantage advantageous to him.

122
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: Um to be able to execute and be able to

123
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: go out there and go back to you know, last

124
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: year's for him, you know, to where he's not thinking

125
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: about anything. He's just lined up and just kicking the ball.

126
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: I know he's not your guy if you was done

127
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: him for a long time. What's it like working with

128
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: Eli Manning? You know what, Eli he is the pro,

129
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: was pro. I mean from the first day I stepped

130
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: in here and oh seven uh two now he's been

131
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: the same exact guy every day. Every morning. He's the

132
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: first guy in the building, you know, eating breakfast at

133
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: you know, six fifteen or six thirty, and uh, you know,

134
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: he gets out here, he works. Uh, he does what

135
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: he's supposed to do. He's always willing helper, you know,

136
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: he's and he's just one of the funniest catch you'll

137
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: ever be around. I mean, you guys, don't some of

138
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: you do. But he is a big time practical joker.

139
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: And uh but he is a great guy, great teammate. Uh,

140
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: and he is. He's gonna be definitely missed around here.

141
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: He is a legend in his own right. And uh

142
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: he I think he you know, I I gotta thank

143
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: him before he gets out of here for giving me

144
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: a ring, because I mean, he he did a heck

145
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: of a job. And then oh seven season and just

146
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: all the memories and just being around E all the time,

147
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: and you know, especially back then when I first got here,

148
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: when he just watched him grow, you know he has

149
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: as a quarterback, and now us to come back into

150
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: just to see him as the old man in the building,

151
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: you know, just the old grizzly veteran, who is a

152
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,239
Speaker 1: guy that that just loves ball. He just loves ball

153
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: and and and he's a great teammate. And just to see, uh,

154
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,440
