1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: Thanks Stacy. Bill. Do you like the name Isaiah? Yeah? Wait,

2
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 1: we're we're collecting them. Yeah. If I can just start

3
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,159
Speaker 1: by asking you about both these guys, Isaiah Ford, what

4
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: stood out to you about facing you know, facing him

5
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: the last couple of years in terms of what type

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: of player he needs? Well, we felt like both players, um,

7
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: you know could add depth the two positions that we

8
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: feel like we could use the depth out. So um,

9
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 1: one claim, one trade, that's you know, we'll see we

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: won't won't really be able to do anything with these

11
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: players for another week, so um, you know, we'll see

12
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: what happens. Then, gotcha, um, And one quick question on

13
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: Devin ASIASI going to injured reserve yesterday. Um. Was that

14
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: a result of him sustaining a physical injury in practice

15
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 1: or was that more related to what led to him

16
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: not making the trip to Western New York and the

17
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: personal reasons? Personal business, personal reasons for injured reserve? Yeah,

18
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: Devin didn't travel to Buffalo, Um for personal reasons. And

19
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: is that ties to the i R? But why he's

20
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: on is that a separate issue? No, it's it's separate. Yeah,

21
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: he had Um, Yeah, he's on an injury reserve with

22
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: a with an injury, not a personal situation. Thank you

23
00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: for clarifying that, sure. Next question Doug Kai falled by

24
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 1: Karen Gregien. Well, you have some ties to the twenty

25
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,519
Speaker 1: nineteen Miami coaching staff, and I know the Brandon Bolden

26
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: played with Isaiah four back in twenty eighteen. Would you

27
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: have reached out to anyone like Brandon or or you know, um,

28
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: Tycoon Underwood or anyone about what you would get what

29
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: you guys would be getting in Isaiah FOURD. Yeah, we

30
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,679
Speaker 1: have various ways, um you know, of trying to do

31
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: our research on on all players. So it's really well

32
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: depend on you know, players in the contacts and and

33
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: so forth. But you know, if we have an opportunity

34
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: to whatever opportunities we have the research and gain information

35
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: on players, that's what we do. We keep those in

36
00:02:54,520 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: our personnel records and I'll use them if as if

37
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: their opponents or if the players available. Next question is

38
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: Karen Gredian, followed by Maury hirsch Court. Good morning, Bill,

39
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: okay um, I'm just wondering if you've been able to

40
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: put a finger on the inability of the offense to

41
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: produce points early in games and how much of a

42
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: necessity is it to kind of change that narrative. Yeah,

43
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: we're definitely, we definitely want to change it and need

44
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: to change it. So that's that's not what we are

45
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: trying to do. But we haven't done a very good

46
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: job of it so far, so we'll keep working on

47
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: it and see if we can be more productive in

48
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: the early part of the game for sure. Is it

49
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: Is it a matter of execution or just a combination

50
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: of factors that have led to that statistic. Well, every

51
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: game is different, so but whatever they are, we need

52
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: to do a better job than we've done. Um, it's

53
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: just not that's just not the the way we want

54
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: to play. It's not a good path to winning football.

55
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: Thank you. The next question Mary Hirsch Gordon, followed by

56
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: Matt vittor, Hey Bill, With your shortcomings late in games,

57
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 1: I'm wondering how in practice you can you know, try

58
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: to improve in those areas to replicate, you know, those

59
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: high pressure situations. You know, do you have a thought

60
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: on that and how you try to you know, yeah,

61
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: replicate those high pressure situations in practice when you know

62
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: you're going to have those same things come up on

63
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: Sundays and mondays, Yeah, well we practice those situations every week, so, UM,

64
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 1: you know, you can never predict exactly what the situation

65
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: is going to be, but you you practice those the

66
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 1: concept of those, um, and so we just you know,

67
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: in all areas of the game, we just have to, um,

68
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: you know, continue to work on those. Like I said,

69
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: each one's different and the team you play is different,

70
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: and so you have to make it specific to your opponent.

71
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: But UM, yeah, we've got to. It's got to perform

72
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: better there. Some of it's schematic on some of it's

73
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: really fundamentals as well, so um, execution and game planning, UM, well,

74
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: all the above, We just you know, it's all have

75
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: to do a better job. Excussion have a tour followed

76
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: by Philip Perry. I've built Devin wasn't on the on

77
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: the practice report with an injury report last week. Was

78
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: did his injury come away from the field or was

79
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: it something that didn't didn't really manifest itself until later on. Yeah,

80
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean I don't really have anything to Uh, he

81
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: wasn't in Buffalo for personal reasons and he's on injury

82
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: reserved because of an injury. So that's I don't know

83
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: what else to tell you. Next question, Bill, you mentioned

84
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: yesterday before the deadline that sometimes it's more more talk

85
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 1: than action on a day like that. I'm just curious

86
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: now that obviously it's coming gone, if that's kind of

87
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: how it ended up, or you know, were there offers

88
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: made to you guys that you just didn't feel like

89
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: we're good values for you, or was there just sort

90
00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: of a lack of of of talk maybe even Yeah, yeah, Phil,

91
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: I appreciate the question. So we have our conversations, we

92
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: have one of other teams, will keep those private between

93
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: us and the teams. Next question ben volunfilled by Mike

94
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: Greeks morning. But that was actually kind of similar to

95
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: my question. Did you get a sense that there were

96
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: deals to be made and why? Why do you think

97
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: it was quiet? Mostly quiet, not just for your team

98
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: but around the league. Yeah, I just I said, I

99
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: just kind of answered that one. I don't know about

100
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: the rest of the league. I can't tell you what

101
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: everybody else was doing. There was also a report that

102
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: you guys at least entertained offers for Stefan Gilmore. Is

103
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: there any truth to that? Yeah, nothing, I'm aware, thank you.

104
00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: That's the last question me Mike Greece. Just going back

105
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: to Isaiah K. Mac um, how much did the time

106
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: you had in Nashville last August Um play any part

107
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: in the claim, you know, and just to as part

108
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: of the information that you're evaluating whether to make a

109
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: claim like that. Oh, well some. But you know he's

110
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: also had had playing time, so you know we've been

111
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: able to see him, you know, play competitively in games.

112
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: So I think that that probably had you know a little,

113
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: but you know, all the information is relevant. It's really

114
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: you know, a question of death and where do you where,

115
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: where do you get it? And you know he was available,

116
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: he was released, so we will still won't be able

117
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: to have him for a week, but I mean at

118
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: this point, yeah, he's a player that has some experience,

119
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: he's young and has some things to uh that would

120
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: like to work with. So we'll see how it goes

121
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: when when we're able to we're able to get them,

122
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: which won't be until next week. Thank you coach, Thanks everyone, great,

123
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: Thank you
