13
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 3: football team, like we've talked about all week, so we

14
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 3: have to play really good football to try to get

15
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 3: a win on the road. And with that, I'll take

16
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: any questions, even if you're not.

17
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 4: Going to share it. Do you feel like you know

18
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 4: what your left tackle plants are right now or does

19
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 4: that go to the mark?

20
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we have a decent idea that what

21
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 3: you have to do with your when you're dealing with

22
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 3: players that are coming back from any injury.

23
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 2: Uh, you got to make sure that every day.

24
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 3: You're seeing how guys are feeling, how they respond to

25
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 3: practice those type of things. So we'll see how everybody does.

26
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: That's really up and down the roster from a from

27
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 3: an injury perspective.

28
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 5: Did you see what did what did you see that

29
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 5: you liked? Though, David, you know the two practice days.

30
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 3: This week, Yeah, that was the plan this week to

31
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 3: work Wednesday Friday. I think he's working very hard to

32
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 3: get back similar conversation. They'll have to see how he

33
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 3: is tomorrow, see how he responds to practice that type

34
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 3: of thing.

35
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 6: Back to the tackle about Kim with James Hudson ruled out,

36
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 6: that's one less guy for you. Do you feel like

37
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 6: you're going to have the help the bodies you need

38
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 6: without having to do anything?

39
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 7: I guess drastic?

40
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 2: Like what I mean, like if.

41
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 8: Then you got Jawan and then you know what I mean?

42
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, like, as you know, we have many options there.

43
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 3: There's contingency plans if guys can't go those type of things,

44
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: but your roster's your roster, uh, and so we've I'm

45
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 3: comfort with the guys that we have for sure in.

46
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 5: Terms if Jack is ready to go.

47
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 8: Would he be a good candidate to.

48
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 5: Start over there right now?

49
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, potentially, And that's you know, with Jack, it's making

50
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 3: sure that he's ready to go physically, and another guy,

51
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I've gotten to see him work out. I've

52
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 3: gotten to see him try like crazy to get back

53
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 3: in practice. So he's certainly a guy that when he's ready,

54
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: we'll use him.

55
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 9: I know you've rolled out, Nick, but just how has

56
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 9: he looked in these first couple of practices back.

57
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it looks like himself to me, and it's good

58
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 3: to have him out there. It's good to have him

59
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: in individual drills and then out there on the practice

60
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: field giving a look to our defense on scout team.

61
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 3: Can't remember last time he did that, but he looks good.

62
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 7: Does you have a legitimate chance to play next week

63
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 7: against Phildy?

64
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not going to get into that. Nick's not

65
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 3: going to get into that. That's not really our focus.

66
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 3: And I understand the question. But for Nick and for us,

67
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 3: it's let's take this day by day and make sure

68
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: you're feeling how you're feeling, and then we'll progress whenever

69
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 3: that next step is.

70
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 4: Nick told us that's coaching style is different.

71
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 7: We've heard that from the other Backs.

72
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 8: What do you appreciate about Duce?

73
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 4: Did you know him very well before that?

74
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 2: I rooted for Deuce? Uh?

75
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 3: Probably, Yeah. I think Deuce is a very unique person.

76
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: His background, how he you know, playing in this league

77
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 3: and just he's a he's a genuine article. He's a

78
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 3: he's a guy that brings energy every single day. He's

79
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 3: a team guy all the way. Uh And and he

80
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,839
Speaker 3: wants the best for his guys, so he coaches him hard.

81
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 5: Kevin Zach last week, first start in the totality, how

82
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 5: did you feel like he had performed?

83
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 8: And you know, again, I considering.

84
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 5: Washington's defensive tackles, feel confident with him, you.

85
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 7: Know, going out there again.

86
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: Another young player that's I think going to continue to

87
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 3: get better with reps, with games playing out there, So

88
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 3: he's going to learn from every time he's out there.

89
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: This is an outstanding defensive front. Obviously those two interior

90
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 3: players are outstanding. So it's a great challenge. But I

91
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 3: think it's something with young players. I think you learn

92
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 3: every time you're out there.

93
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 8: Howky is it for you to have Ethan back.

94
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: And you know, and he'll be in Yeah, a very

95
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 2: tough player.

96
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 3: You know he tried to go even in that game

97
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 3: after he was injured, but bounce back, did a nice

98
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 3: job rehabbing, getting ready. So he's a leader for us.

99
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,679
Speaker 3: He does a great job organizing everything from that position.

100
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 10: Losses and to lose Alex right for the season, I

101
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 10: mean arenownst to us. He was I guess playing with

102
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 10: this injury for a couple of weeks here.

103
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 8: Yeah.

104
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 2: Disappointed for Alex.

105
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: He was playing well for us, made some really big plays,

106
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: none bigger than that play in Jacksonville. So disappointed for him.

107
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 3: I know he'll he'll bounce back already had the surgery.

108
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 3: Excited for him to get back when he does, but

109
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 3: ultimately it's it's never fun when you lose a guy

110
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 3: for a year like that.

111
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 7: Kevin, how have you seen Pierre just kind of continue

112
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 7: to work his way back. I know he's questionable, but

113
00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 7: how has he worked back.

114
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 3: He's done a nice job with his rehab, worked very

115
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,840
Speaker 3: hard as stayed engaged throughout the meetings. I think that's

116
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 3: another big part of this with our players. When they

117
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 3: go on IR they know they're out for a little bit,

118
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 3: or they don't, and they know they're gonna miss maybe

119
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,799
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks and they have to stay engaged,

120
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 3: and I think it's really important to stay engaged mentally.

121
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 3: So he's worked very hard to get his body ready,

122
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 3: but he's also worked hard to in that meeting room

123
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 3: understand what we're trying to do. So we'll see where

124
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 3: it goes. But he's trending in the right direction.

125
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 7: Are they James Hudson and Jordan Hikes injuries something that

126
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 7: could be I r.

127
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: James Hudson will go to IR. Yes, again I was James.

128
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 7: I know he got hurt a couple of weeks ago.

129
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 7: Did he like aggravated?

130
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 8: He did? Or he did?

131
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 2: And then Jordan Hicks is not a candidate for her, And.

132
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 6: Then Michael Dunn, I think questionable if he's able to

133
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 6: be up for you guys, what does that versatility you had,

134
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 6: especially in the.

135
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 8: Uncertainty of that.

136
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, another guy that has really been a fixture of

137
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 3: of our that room for a while here, brings a

138
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 3: great attitude, works very hard, obviously has dealt with an

139
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 3: illness and now is getting back. So if we can

140
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 3: get him back, he provides great leadership, plays well if

141
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 3: he has to go in there, that type of thing.

142
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 2: But really proud of how he's worked.

143
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 4: Hu told us he was just an average player, and

144
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 4: he uses that to coach his guy. So someone who.

145
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 3: Watched, well, yeah, that's he's a he's a better player

146
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: than Scout then because he was a great one.

147
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 8: What have you seen on me?

148
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 7: Gave Hines this week? Coming back from that.

149
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 3: Very you know, similarly, I've gotten to watch Nahim and

150
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,679
Speaker 3: Nick and all these guys put in so many hours

151
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 3: in the training room and uh and then to stay

152
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 3: engaged with the team and and and really make sure

153
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 3: and that's a hard thing to do when you're injured

154
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 3: and you feel like you're not in it because you're

155
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 3: not breaking the huddle with the team, that type of thing.

156
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 3: But he's certainly felt a big part of this really throughout.

157
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: So I'm excited that he's getting back out there and

158
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 3: we'll kind of see when he's ready.

159
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 6: What type of boost does that give you guys like

160
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 6: having like not just one, kind of.

161
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 8: Multiple guys coming off this.

162
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 2: I think that's kind of the.

163
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 3: NFL, if you will, you go through the cycles of

164
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: getting guys injured and then they get back, and I

165
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,679
Speaker 3: think it really is important for injured players to stay

166
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 3: on top of it, stay with the team. Stay when

167
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: I say with the team in the meetings, stay with

168
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 3: it in the meeting room, in the weight room, just

169
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 3: because it can be hard when when you're hurt and

170
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 3: you're not playing, and those guys have really done.

171
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: Nice job, Kevin.

172
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 10: All of these obviously they are important, but considering where

173
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 10: you are right now, you mentioned earlier this week your

174
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 10: message to the team was about to your job, don't try.

175
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 7: And do too much just this week, how do you.

176
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 10: Think you know guys responded to that message.

177
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 3: I think big thing obviously is how we play on Sunday,

178
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 3: and for us to play well, we have to just

179
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 3: do our job. So the preparation has been good and

180
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 3: then got to take that practice field to the game field.

181
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 11: How about do you have evidence this week in practice

182
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 11: that the tackling.

183
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 3: Is going to be better on something we worked at it?

184
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 3: So certainly you know you achieve what you emphasize. So

185
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 3: we've tried to work at a bunch of different things,

186
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 3: Mary Kay, really in individual pre practice, post practice things

187
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: that we want to get better at.

188
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 6: Oh do you work because you don't tackle, obviously for

189
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 6: safety reasons, but just how do you work on tackling

190
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 6: without physically tackling a pros.

191
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 3: There's drills, there's different pads that you can use tackling dummies,

192
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: but it always comes down to very specific techniques, and

193
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 3: I think our defensive coaches do an outstanding job of

194
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 3: teaching those techniques. We just got to again, it's taking

195
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 3: the practice field to the game field.

196
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 12: Kind of the gym brought up idea acquire eos for

197
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 12: getting the job he's done. You noticely forcing the bumble

198
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 12: and then that tackle and the punt return last week.

199
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 12: Just how have you guys seen him take advantage of

200
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 12: some opportunities to go in the off season and translate them.

201
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 7: When he's getting these stamps.

202
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a really good point, Ashley, because

203
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 3: he was here, a guy that was here every day,

204
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 3: took advantage of that offseason, offseason program in the weight room,

205
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 3: at all those walkthroughs.

206
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 2: And meetings and that type of thing.

207
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 3: So I thought he really did a nice job of

208
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: taking that quote unquote jump from being a young player

209
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,839
Speaker 3: to a second year player and understanding how he fits

210
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 3: in the scheme, how his play style fits in the scheme.

211
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 3: So another player kind of we talked about Zach earlier,

212
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 3: just more reps are good for these young players.

213
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 2: You know.

214
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 13: I got to ask you, obviously, the Phillies pulled a

215
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 13: tough matchup with the Mets.

216
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 3: How we feeling good luck to Topper and the Phills

217
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 3: and good luck to coach? Do you say, coach Voter

218
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: for Voter and the Guards? That would be a I'll

219
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 3: take a Guard's Phillies World Series. Can I speak that

220
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 3: in New existence? That'd be a hard one for me,

221
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,839
Speaker 3: but I'll take it. We'll worry about that when we

222
00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 3: get there.

223
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: Running Backs coach Douce Staley spoke on what he saw

224
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: from Nick Chubb in his first practice week of the season.

225
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,319
Speaker 4: This has only been two days with Nick.

226
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 8: What do you what do you see from him?

227
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 14: What's in your communication with him about how it feels,

228
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 14: how far it has to get.

229
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 15: Yeah, So the excitement started way before he got on

230
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 15: the field, from the players in the building, personnel in

231
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 15: the building, just knowing that Nick was being able to

232
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 15: go out there and practice, you know, being able to

233
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 15: put on his shoulder pass, being able to put on

234
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 15: his helmet and run around with the guys. So they

235
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 15: were all excited. You felt the energy from everybody and

236
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 15: getting out on the field I remember telling him, Hey, man,

237
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 15: your first day back, just get out there, run around,

238
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 15: have fun, and don't worry about anything else.

239
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 8: And that's what I told him.

240
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 4: Is it about Nick?

241
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,439
Speaker 9: Like to be such an a few words, but to

242
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 9: kind of draw everybody and be somebody that gravitates to him?

243
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 8: Like, what is it about him?

244
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 15: I think you asked the question to answer that also, Man,

245
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 15: a few words, but a lot of actions there. So

246
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 15: you're going out there yesterday, he's running around and you

247
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,839
Speaker 15: guys know Nick. You gotta save Nick from Nick. He

248
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,599
Speaker 15: wants to go out there, he wants to be on

249
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 15: the scout team, he wants to run around on special teams.

250
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 15: He wants to come over there and do drills. So

251
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 15: you gotta slow Nick down. And all the players and

252
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 15: coaches see that. We feed off of that.

253
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 12: By the same token, I noticed even that first day

254
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 12: when we were watching it.

255
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 16: You're not going easy on him by any stretch of

256
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 16: the imagination.

257
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 10: When you're putting him through the individual drills and he's

258
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 10: getting a little gas just like everybody else. So can

259
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 10: you just talk about the fact that you're riding him

260
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 10: hard like you do everybody.

261
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 15: Oh yeah, that's not gonna change that's me and Nick

262
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,839
Speaker 15: knows that. And Nick doesn't want it any other way.

263
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 15: So he don't want you to come out there and

264
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 15: give him anything special or you know, lighten up on him,

265
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 15: and I'm not so I'm going to push him if

266
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 15: you If you tell me that it's a guy out

267
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 15: there that can practice who it is, he's gonna get

268
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 15: the same treatment. Now on the other side of that,

269
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 15: don't forget Nahim came back also, he was able to

270
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 15: come back out there and practice and run around. And

271
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 15: we know what type of plays this kid has made

272
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,839
Speaker 15: in this league. He's been special in this league. So

273
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 15: to get both of those guys back is really good, you.

274
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 7: Get I wanted to ask name too.

275
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,719
Speaker 6: When you hit both those guys back, and I know

276
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 6: it's only been two days, do you get a sense

277
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 6: of Okay, they're gonna be physically okay, we're gonna you know, eventually,

278
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 6: they're gonna be what we need him to be.

279
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 7: Can you tell it in two days?

280
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a process. That's a process.

281
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 15: Once again, going back to what I said earlier about

282
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,599
Speaker 15: just telling Nick told Naim the same thing. Hey, just

283
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 15: go out there, run around, have fun, you know, because

284
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 15: being in those shoes before being injured, coming back, not

285
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 15: knowing if you gonna be yourself or even close to

286
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 15: being a shell of yourself. You wanna get out there

287
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 15: with your teammates. You wanna run around, you wanna burst,

288
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 15: you wanna make cuts on your own before you go

289
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 15: against the defense, So before you go against special teams.

290
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,439
Speaker 15: And that's some of the things they did. And that's

291
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 15: what you got to do your first initial practice. Now

292
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 15: from there we'll build to see where they are.

293
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 17: Is it?

294
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 5: I mean, what is it about Nick that I mean,

295
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 5: you've coached a lot of running backs, so and you've

296
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 5: been around a lot of righting. What is it that

297
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 5: sets him apart from anybody else that you've been around?

298
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 15: As simple as the work ethic. Now, I've been around

299
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 15: a lot of good running backs and all of them work.

300
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 15: Nick works hard and he's finishing. So when you look

301
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 15: at Nick versus the scout team, no matter who it is, defensively,

302
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 15: no matter what plays he have, no matter if he

303
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 15: has the ball or not, he's finishing twenty and fifteen

304
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 15: yards down the field. So that's what made Nick special.

305
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 18: What is that sort of influence sailor backs? To see

306
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 18: a guy who's one of the best backs in the league.

307
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 18: He does that, does that sort of trickle down, then

308
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 18: those guys feel the need to.

309
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 8: Do that too, without a doubt.

310
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 15: But I think the most important thing about that is

311
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 15: seeing Nick come out there the first day and doing it.

312
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 15: You know, they expect for Nick to kind of get

313
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 15: in a groove maybe week two, week three, and to

314
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 15: see him finished like that. No, it was the first day.

315
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 15: He's out there finishing twenty and thirty yards down the field.

316
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 4: Do you saw you evaluate the running through four weeks?

317
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 8: Getn't bad?

318
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 15: Yeah, So when I look at it, it's all about us.

319
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 15: Everything starts with the running backs and what I can

320
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 15: do better than what they can do better. So we

321
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 15: don't look outside of our room. We look at our

322
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 15: room first, and we're hard on our room. I'm hard

323
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 15: on our room, and I'm hard on them, and I'm

324
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 15: hard on myself. It's a lot of things we can

325
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 15: do better. Finish, we can finish better. A's running backs, uh,

326
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 15: of course, execute and landmarks as it's a lot of

327
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 15: things we gotta clean up for it to be better.

328
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 5: Can you think of anyone throughout your phone entire career

329
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 5: that has ever tried to come back for you made

330
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 5: your need.

331
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 8: Reconstructions like this. No, it's are We're gonna be historic

332
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 8: for him to pull this off, right, Yeah?

333
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 15: Coming back from one, I mean it's historic to me,

334
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 15: you know, coming back and you know the percentages on

335
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,479
Speaker 15: serious injuries when they tell you from a doctor's perspective,

336
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 15: you know if you can play, if you can at

337
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 15: what percentage you're going to be you know, with guys

338
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 15: like Nick and other guys who's been in that position.

339
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 8: Myself, you push yourself like no other.

340
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 10: You know.

341
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 8: You love when someone tell you that you can't do

342
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 8: anything if you use the fire.

343
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 4: This as you said, that's me and I'm hard on

344
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 4: these guys. Is your coaching style? Is that just natural?

345
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 4: Does it come from somewhere from your own experiences? What

346
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 4: do you think is formed your coaching style?

347
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 15: It just comes from me looking back over my career

348
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 15: on a lot of things that I could have done better.

349
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 15: I'm able to share those experiences with the running backs,

350
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 15: being in no shoes once again, being in that seat

351
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 15: and remembering things that, oh man, I wish I had

352
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 15: an opportunity to do this again or opportunity to do

353
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 15: that again. I'm able to share my experiences with them

354
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 15: and try to make them better.

355
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 8: That's I was an average player with a cool name. Man,

356
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 8: that was it, you heard, dudes? You know it didn't

357
00:15:58,760 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 8: match up to the play.

358
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 6: Jerome had a bunch of catches last week which made

359
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 6: him effective as a receiver.

360
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 7: And what do you see from him in that area.

361
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm proud of Jerome actually just being able to

362
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 15: build his game and add on to his game a

363
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 15: little bit more. It is not a finished product by far.

364
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 15: And he'll tell you, and I'll tell you, and we're

365
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 15: gonna continue to work on just the little things with

366
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 15: Jerome and just seeing him.

367
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 8: He can catch the ball.

368
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 15: You know, he can catch the ball no matter what

369
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 15: the route is, from a checkdown to an option. He's

370
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 15: a valuable receiver out of the backfield. So just being

371
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 15: able to see him catch the ball last week is

372
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 15: something some of the things he's been doing throughout training

373
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 15: camp and OTAs.

374
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 4: How does getting peer back makes the team better?

375
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 15: Oh, it makes it a whole lot better, especially the room,

376
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 15: but starting with special teams, which is we all know

377
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 15: is valuable getting him back out there as a returner

378
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 15: and as we move on being a gunner or whatever,

379
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 15: just the juicy brings, the speedy brings, the aggressiveness he brings,

380
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 15: and you can take those words and put them into

381
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 15: the running back room.

382
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 1: Also, defensive line coach Jacques Air was next. He discussed

383
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: the challenges a mobile quarterback can give a defensive line.

384
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 4: They du just told us he was an average player

385
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:12,719
Speaker 4: with the cool name.

386
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 19: Is that a fair Scott, No, Duce was a heck

387
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 19: of a player, a really good just changing the pace back,

388
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 19: catch passes out the backfield. I mean he can just

389
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 19: he was a hard runner, and the same tenacity that

390
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 19: he bought as a player he brings as a coach.

391
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 19: So he's a heck of a coach. Don't let him

392
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 19: fool you, Okay, dudes, was a good, good, real good player.

393
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 7: How do you evaluate your room after four weeks?

394
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 19: Going back, so four weeks right now, what you're seeing

395
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 19: is the guys are starting to really just understand what

396
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 19: we're asking them to do. Sometimes they try to do

397
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 19: too much, but for the most part, the guys are

398
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 19: doing a good job of coming off the ball. They're

399
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 19: doing a good job of knocking people back. It's nice

400
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 19: to see Dalvin and Shall be in there doing their thing.

401
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 19: Miles obviously there has been Miles you know, and just

402
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 19: you know, rushing his butt off and making plays for

403
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 19: us when we need it the most.

404
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 8: And it's just really good to just see some of the.

405
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 19: Young guys that we have, you know, in Isaiah McGuire,

406
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 19: you know, uh, just some of those guys just coming

407
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 19: out and just playing really good football for us.

408
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 8: What kind of step up was Alex right taking this year?

409
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 15: I know you noted in May camp.

410
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 5: I think it was that that he and Isaiah were

411
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 5: targeted as two guys that you thought were gonna pop

412
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 5: this year.

413
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 15: So how was Alex coming along and what kind of.

414
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 18: A blow is it to do that?

415
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 19: Yeah, obviously, you know Alex, he's done a great job

416
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 19: for us. You know, a guy that just plays multiple

417
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 19: positions for us, a great interior rusher, does a good

418
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 19: job for us as a defensive end, and just just

419
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,719
Speaker 19: being physical in there and just bringing a physical presence

420
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 19: in his rush, you know, obviously, I I don't you know,

421
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 19: obviously talk about injuries. I know, you know, things have

422
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 19: been put out there, but for the most part, you know,

423
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 19: not having him is a tremendous blow, but also it

424
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 19: gives great opportunities for other guys, you know, like like

425
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 19: in Isaiah Maguire to to really step up and play

426
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 19: a little bit more because he's been playing some really

427
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 19: good football for us as well.

428
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 9: So more people say that, you know, the defensive line,

429
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 9: so many players can go to see the defensive line

430
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 9: is the engine of the entire defense. With Dalvin Thomlinson,

431
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 9: how does he kind of set the tone for the

432
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 9: run defense specifically, and and everything kind of flowing from there.

433
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 19: Yeah, just just working with a guy like Dalvin. The

434
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 19: first thing that that people don't know about Dalvin, He's

435
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 19: just probably one of the best pros I've ever been around.

436
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 19: I mean, he's just a great team leader, a great

437
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 19: leader in the room for us, and and he just

438
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 19: just the approach that he brings every day. I really appreciate,

439
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 19: you know, the type of person that he is. And

440
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 19: now as a player, I mean, he's a movable object.

441
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 19: You know, you see him in there, He's knocking people back.

442
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 19: You know, he sets the tone for us, you know,

443
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 19: not only in practice but in the game. So just

444
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 19: having him out there doing this thing has just been

445
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 19: really good for us. And I think he's just really

446
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 19: starting to scratch the surface of what he can do

447
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 19: in this defense for us.

448
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 5: You mentioned Isaiah just from even the Dallas game to now,

449
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 5: how has he kind of grown and where is the

450
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 5: the biggest stride has been made for him.

451
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 19: A lot of people don't know Isaiah is is a

452
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 19: heck of a pass rusher. You know, he's slippery, he

453
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 19: does this thing. You know, he hasn't had as many

454
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 19: opportunities this year to do that. You know, we got

455
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 19: some older guys in there, you know, Zadarius, Obo Miles,

456
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,479
Speaker 19: but he's starting to really I'm starting to get him

457
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 19: into in the lineup a little bit more. He had

458
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 19: a great play for us the other day on that

459
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 19: short yardist play where he caused the fumble, just doing

460
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 19: his job.

461
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 4: You know.

462
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 19: So with Isaiah, he's he's continually growing, He's continually developing,

463
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 19: always staying after practice, getting a little extra work, coming

464
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 19: to me, asking for film, so just so he knows

465
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 19: exactly what he needs to do in the game. So

466
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 19: I'm really excited about his development and what he can

467
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 19: do for us in the near future.

468
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 12: You know what, Jock, even in the spring do you

469
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 12: had kind of singled him out as a guy who

470
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 12: was doing a lot through that off season program just

471
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 12: what did you even see after then, and how has

472
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 12: it translated through these opportunities.

473
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 9: He's got so far.

474
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 8: Yeah, the main thing I saw from Isaiah was he

475
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 8: was hungry. And that's what you really need.

476
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 19: You need guys that are just hungry to play, hungry

477
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 19: to win, just hungry to go out there and just

478
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 19: and ball out. And I just saw that every day.

479
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 19: He just brought it, just a tenacity to the field

480
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 19: every single day. And you could just see it all

481
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 19: the way back to OTAs, like, man, this guy, like

482
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 19: we let this guy, we cut him loose, He's gonna

483
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 19: be really good for us. So it's nice to see

484
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 19: that development from OTAs to now and seeing him have success.

485
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 19: And like I said, he's gonna get a lot bit

486
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 19: more opportunities coming forward coming up.

487
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 6: Is there a different message when you face a quarterback

488
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 6: like Daniels when you're talking to your d lineman about

489
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 6: keeping him in the pocket or how you deal with

490
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 6: the Gavigan kind of running ability?

491
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean it seems nowadays like every NFL quarterback

492
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 19: has that type of ability. But obviously the rookie has

493
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 19: he's done a tremendous job just doing what they're asking him.

494
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 19: To do and obviously using his physical tools that he has.

495
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 19: You know, he's he's always a threat to run. Okay,

496
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 19: he has a great arm and he's very accurate. So

497
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 19: we just have to do a good job as a

498
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 19: defensive front of just doing what we do, collapse the pocket,

499
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 19: k rush the edge, be disciplined in our rush, and

500
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 19: just get him down when we need to get him down.

501
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 19: You know, the you know, I know, the old line

502
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 19: coach over there, Bibi jobs. He does a great job

503
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 19: with all his units, and those guys up front are

504
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 19: really gelling together and playing really good football right now.

505
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 19: So it's gonna be a great challenge for us. He's

506
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 19: gonna be a great opportunity for us to showcase our skills.

507
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 19: And I'm excited for this game this weekend.

508
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 5: What about the challenges of trying to manage Miles when

509
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 5: he's not feeling all that great with the achilles and

510
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 5: the thigh and what injuries.

511
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 19: Yeah, so, you know, again, I don't really talk about guys,

512
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 19: you know stuff, but Miles is a professional and he

513
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 19: knows how to take care of his body. You know,

514
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 19: he knows the things that he needs to do to

515
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 19: get ready to play on Sunday. He's done a great

516
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 19: job as a leader, first of all, and he's just

517
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 19: done a good job of just managing everything that comes

518
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 19: along with, you know, being Miles Garrett. So I think

519
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 19: he's he's doing a a good job right now, uh,

520
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 19: fighting through whatever is going on. And I really appreciate him,

521
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,239
Speaker 19: and you know, clearly hasn't sold him down too much.

522
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 19: I mean, married man is you know, there's not many

523
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 19: people that can block him in this league.

524
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 6: You know, Jim was talking about the run defense yesterday,

525
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 6: Miles after the game mentioned it feels like teams are

526
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 6: attacking the edges.

527
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 7: So what do you guys have to do better to

528
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 7: be better against a run than you were last year?

529
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean some teams have been doing some things

530
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 19: that that you normally see that teams do against attack fronts,

531
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 19: and we just we just have to play discipline sound football.

532
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 8: We have to just uh you know, obviously set the edge. Uh.

533
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 19: And and it's it's all three levels have to set

534
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 19: an edge at one point or another. Right, corners have

535
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 19: to set the edge of numbers. Okay, the alley player

536
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 19: has to set the edge, and the defensive line has

537
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 19: to set the edge, you know, with the with the

538
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 19: tackles and the tight end, So we just have to

539
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 19: just have guys in there that are going to just

540
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 19: do their job.

541
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 2: You know.

542
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 19: I know a lot of guys want to make plays,

543
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 19: and this this defense is designed for our eleven.

544
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 8: Guys to go make plays.

545
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 19: But we we we got to show up, you know,

546
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 19: are tackling and and just guys just doing their job,

547
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 19: and I think we'll be just fine in the run department.

548
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 18: You guys are close to getting Mike called back. How

549
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 18: have you seen him handle this this time away and

550
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 18: kind of prepare himself for finally.

551
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 8: Getting on the field. Yeah, Mike has done a great job.

552
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 19: I haven't gotten a lot of time as far as

553
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 19: being able to coach him because you know, obviously he's

554
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 19: had to deal with what he has to do. But beforehand,

555
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 19: we we've you know, we got really close. He He's

556
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 19: a guy that's another guy that's extremely hungry and that

557
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 19: works extremely hard and works at his craft. So I

558
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 19: can't wait till that day comes when he can get

559
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 19: back on the field with us and start working, because

560
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 19: I know he is extremely hungry and ready to go.

561
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: Tight end. David Adjoku made his return to the podium

562
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,719
Speaker 1: This week, he talked about his recovery following his ankle injury.

563
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 7: Getting back on the hid.

564
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 17: I felt pretty good. Yeah, he's gonna follow whatever Kevin tells.

565
00:24:58,240 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 8: Going to do.

566
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:05,639

567
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 14: down for a few days. Did you have a step

568
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 14: back or just more quite righty.

569

Speaker 17: I can I I can definitely still show earlier in

630
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 17: the year. You know, I feel like I can still

631
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 17: do a lot of things that I set up to do.

632
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 8: What I don't know yet.

633
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 17: If I'll tell you one, I I do 'em.

634
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:12,840

Speaker 8: Do you see?

636
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 14: What do you think that spending going back to these

637
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 14: over these first four weeks.

638
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 17: I feel like we are, we believe, beat ourselves in

639
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 17: every game. We had a mistakes that set us back,

640
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 17: uh behind the eight ball. And I feel like in

641
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 17: this league, you know, in the professional league that we

642
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 17: play in, it's it's it's really hard to come back.

643
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 17: If we said, if you say yourself back already far night.

644
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 17: So I feel like once we stop killing ourselves and

645
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 17: be very successful, kind offer that a.

646
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 13: Couple more, What is uh, something makes that you've seen

647
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 13: like fundamentally with this team offensively that you feel like

648
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 13: can be that driving point?

649
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 7: Did you guys got on the track?

650
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 8: So it was a question the.

651
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 7: Things that have gone well for the offense at the.

652
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 17: Fundamental level has like right, I mean it's bad. I

653
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 17: mean on the day, it's it's football. You know, we

654
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 17: played this game for a long time, you know what

655
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 17: I mean. So I have roll professional who's got to

656
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 17: just execute and not make a mistakes, not make any

657
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 17: mental errors, and you will be successful.

658
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 8: If you do that.

659
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 6: So do you feel like, fine, have a different perspective

660
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:14,840

00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 17: Absolutely what gives you that? Like I said, if you

665
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 17: look on the table, you just see us hurting ourselves.

666
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 17: So if you don't hurt ourselves, we'll see those are

667
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 17: supposed to plays that everyone desires. So really it's really

00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 11: able to have a high completion percentage, not making many mistakes,

717
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 11: Like you don't see that from a lot of rookies

718
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 11: coming in.

719
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 16: So you know, you gotta treat him not like a rookie.

720
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 11: He's he's proven himself in these first you know, few

721
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 11: games that he is one of those elite guys. So

722
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 11: I think he's been doing an amazing job and we

723
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 11: definitely have to, you know, be able to stop. Like

724
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 11: you said, some of them quick high percentage throws off

725
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 11: from him.

726
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 14: Jim Sure yesterday said that you know, you guys played

727
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 14: great for long stretches, but sometimes it teakes getting kicked

728
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 14: in the teeth. I think he said to get you

729
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 14: guys going, how do you avoid beading that and just

730
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 14: play great or game?

731
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 11: Yeah, that's the that's the thing. I feel like we

732
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 11: have great practices. We come out with that identity of

733
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 11: stopping them. You know, it's just locking in. I feel

734
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 11: like to our details, don't let somebody come kick us

735
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 11: in the face and then be a second half team.

736
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 11: Cause I feel like in the second half of every

737
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 11: single game we've been an elite, elite defense. So we

738
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 11: just gotta find a way to just you know, get

739
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 11: mad early, I would say, cause that's been the you.

740
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 10: Know, people to point to how good you guys were

741
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 10: last year, and then they're looking at the sample sizes

742
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 10: from this year and they see the drop off because

743
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 10: it's as simple as the tackling, and if you guys

744
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 10: clean that up, you're back to where you.

745
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 8: Were a year ago.

746
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,959
Speaker 11: Defensively, Yeah, for sure, I think I definitely think it's

747
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 11: some of those you know, mistackles and and getting those

748
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 11: guys in third and ones and things like that versus

749
00:32:58,920 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 11: third and six and seven.

750
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 16: Another thing, we.

751
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 11: Gotta find a way to get off the field on

752
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 11: third down. That's a that's another big thing. But I

753
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 11: feel like a lot of those are a a lot

754
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 11: of technique things. Like you said, tackling is a technique thing,

755
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 11: it's a it's a want to And I think we've

756
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 11: been having a great job of urgency at practice, just

757
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 11: finding a way to actually not tackle, but getting a

758
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 11: good uh position.

759
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 8: To do it.

760
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 14: K were talking about the difference between last year this

761
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 14: year defensively, do you think there's any sense of, like,

762
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 14: you know, you guys are that good and not resting

763
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 14: on yours maybe taking things for granted, but hey, we're

764
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 14: this's good and it's just gonna show up again this

765
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:34,959
Speaker 14: year for right.

766
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 16: I don't think that's what it is.

767
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:40,479
Speaker 11: I honestly, I think we really have a sential urgency

768
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 11: of uh reproving that again. And you know, it's only

769
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 11: been four games, like we gotta we got some time

770
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 11: to get back to that, and I think this week

771
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 11: will be a great start for us. You know, we've

772
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 11: been locked in, extra motivated at practice, we've been sprinting

773
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 11: to the ball a lot more. Uh So I think

774
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 11: we're yelling more as a team, and I think this

775
00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 11: week we'll be able to show that on the field.

776
00:33:59,840 --> 00:33:59,959
Speaker 5: Right.

777
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 12: To go back to Daniels or you mentioned like not

778
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,239
Speaker 12: treating him like a rookie, I guess, like what does

779
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 12: that look like.

780
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 7: Is it just like basically not counting.

781
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 12: On him to make those rookie kind of mistakes that

782
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,280
Speaker 12: can be kind of managed, or when a guy gets rattled.

783
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, for sure, that's a guy that doesn't get rattled.

784
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 11: You know, he's been in a lot of tight games

785
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 11: and and and he's been getting wins, so you can't

786
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 11: expect him, you know, to make a mistake.

787
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 16: You have to play him.

788
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 11: True, He's he's great at reading coverages and and a

789
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 11: lot of things, so you you kind of gotta treat

790
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 11: 'em as such. And that's one of the you know,

791
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 11: more elite quarterbacks in the league.

792
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 4: At one and three, that.

793
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 7: All of the hopes and dreams are still out.

794
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 10: There in front of you.

795
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, they're they're all still there. It's four games,

796
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 11: we got seventeen. Now we got thirteen more and it's

797
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 11: starting right here. So we definitely are we're bound to

798
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 11: go in the streak. And like I said, I think

799
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 11: this week, as soon as I got back in the building,

800
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 11: I could just tell the energy was different, Like, guys

801
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 11: are we're more together, We're coming together cause you know,

802
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 11: at the end of the day, we know, you know,

803
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 11: there's certain people counting us out. And I feel like

804
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 11: it was like that last year when people start doubting us,

805
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 11: I feel like that's when we gel together. And as

806
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 11: you've seen last year, we started stacking up wins. So

807
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 11: I think this year it's gonna be the same. And

808
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 11: this would be a great test for us this week.

809
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 10: Obviously you know where you at and we almost need

810
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 10: to win and just to get this thing back on

811
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 10: the track. Kevin told us earlier in the week that

812
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 10: his primary message was just do your job, don't try

813
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 10: and do too Like, how was that received in the

814
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 10: locker room? And just how have you seen guys respond

815
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 10: on the practice?

816
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think it's it's one of those things, SAMs.

817
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 11: We always say, do your one eleven. You know, if

818
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 11: everyone does their one eleven will be successful. Our coach

819
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 11: always says, don't go chase plays. I feel like at

820
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 11: times when you see us, you know, maybe not great eyes,

821
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 11: great technique or chasing plays. So I think this week

822
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 11: at practice, you see guys like I said, we're springing

823
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 11: to the ball, We're finishing where we need to finish.

824
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 11: If the little details of you know, running through the line,

825
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 11: things like that. Literally this week, every single time it

826
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 11: was the last player of a drive, the whole defense

827
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 11: sprints through the end zone like no matter what. So

828
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 11: we've been finding ways to do that. I feel like

829
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 11: this week got practice finally.

830
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year Miles Garrett discussed being a

831
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: mentor to the younger defensive lineman.

832
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 5: When you playing a quarterback like Dan who's so can

833
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 5: be elusive and dangerous. Run is a defensive end industre.

834
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 5: Do you have to adjust how you you know lanes,

835
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 5: you know, the way you kind of attack or or

836
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 5: is it sort of you know, kind of baked into

837
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 5: you know, preparation.

838
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 13: A little bit of both. It's baked of the preparation

839
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 13: throughout the week. As far as you know what you

840
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 13: got to do. A good tank a guy like that

841
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 13: who's as mobile as he is, as elusive as he is,

842
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:44,919
Speaker 13: and you gotta have it in the back of your mind.

843
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 8: You know that, I have that clock in your head

844
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 8: similar to he does that. He does that.

845
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 13: You know, if the bagaps too open, he's gonna dart

846
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 13: for it. So you gotta be ready to count. You know,

847
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 13: those those counters have to be you know, a little

848
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 13: bit more snappy than you would against Gardener. There's no

849
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 13: shades of Gardener, but you guys are moving the same,

850
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 13: and he's not looking, you know, to run down and

851
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 13: field and make okay with his feet. No, Gardener's gonna,

852
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 13: you know, stand in the backfield and try to deliver

853
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 13: to throw and if he can't get out, he's gonna

854
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 13: try to get to a throwing out. You Jayden saw

855
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 13: that He's gonna try to get through, you know, any

856
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 13: of those zones and and.

857
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,879
Speaker 8: Make a play with us with his feet are through

858
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 8: the air.

859
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 7: You heet here, it's right under.

860
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 12: Your wing and this whole castle.

861
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 10: And obviously we know he's in the season so.

862
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 2: That he has to play out and.

863
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 8: I mean he's still under my wing.

864
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 13: You know, I've been there with with injuries and him

865
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 13: to return to play, so help him however I can

866
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 13: whether get him getting into contact with the right people

867
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 13: or trying to motivate him and uh get him back.

868
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 13: I'm gonna feel as soon as possible, you know, whenever

869
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 13: he's ready.

870
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:54,399
Speaker 8: But uh now.

871
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 13: Disappointed that he's not here, but you know, happy that

872
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 13: he's gonna when he get back, he's gonna be one

873
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 13: hundred percent and we're all rooting from he to sit there.

874
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 17: Or not he's not here today, he took him under

875
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 17: his tails here right onto and forward n years.

876
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 7: A god might step in without right now, what.

877
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 8: Have you seen from him as Isaiah.

878
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 10: In terms of his brow he's has been here.

879
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 13: I mean, he's a sponge as far as knowledge. You know,

880
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 13: he doesn't say much. He didn't have the most energy,

881
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 13: which you know, another thing we gotta we gotta work on.

882
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 13: But you know when when he rushes and I can

883
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 13: see like shades of you know, things that you know,

884
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 13: we we've spoken about him taking little little details and

885
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 13: working them into his game, and you know, it's it's

886
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 13: exciting to see, you know, if him really start to

887
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 13: you know, catch on to these things and you know,

888
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 13: just wanted to see you know, more of those. You know,

889
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 13: there there's a lot of flashes right now. But you know,

890
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 13: I think once he gets his his moment in the

891
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 13: sun like he will. You know, with with Alex being down,

892
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,320
Speaker 13: you know, him being on those those those rush packages,

893
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 13: him being on third down, he would really be able

894
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 13: to shine.

895
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,439
Speaker 14: Jim Short said yesterday he was talking about how great

896
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 14: you guys are for stretches, but sometimes he usually became

897
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 14: in the teeth before that kind of kicks in.

898
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 8: How do you avoid mean man? Just play good from search?

899
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 13: Well, I'm tired of getting to kick to the team,

900
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 13: so you know, I'm gonna make sure that you know,

901
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 13: we were all on the same page and we were

902
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:12,399
Speaker 13: tied again, punched in the mouth.

903
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 8: We we're tired of losing.

904
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 13: So you know, we gotta get this right from from

905
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 13: the jump and we got to play sixty minutes a

906
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 13: great ball and uh, they can't be any lows.

907
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 8: And you know that'll it's gonna be that one.

908
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 14: On Sunday, cause it feel like dips in intensity is

909
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 14: the calls full those kinds of issues.

910
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 13: Uh, I think it's a little bit of dips in

911
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:36,479
Speaker 13: intensity and dips uh communication. You know, there's a little

912
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 13: bit of laxity that we had during the week at times,

913
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 13: and I think we've we've really got that out of

914
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 13: our system, and now you know where we're where we

915
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 13: need to be.

916
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,800
Speaker 10: Kevin earlier in the week, that is message you like,

917
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 10: just want and do your shot. Don't go out and

918
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,919
Speaker 10: try and do too much. Obviously everyone in these case

919
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,919
Speaker 10: is important, but considering theres are, this week's is even warm.

920
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 10: But if you want to get this thing on track,

921
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,359
Speaker 10: because how have you seen your teammate to respond as

922
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 10: far as that extra focus.

923
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 7: It wind doing here.

924
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 13: Additionally to what Kevin says, do your job on Sunday,

925
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 13: but do more during the week, I find a way

926
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 13: to do more each and every day, and only for yourself,

927
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 13: but but for your teammates. You try to elevate your

928
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 13: team however you can, and I've been seeing guys take

929
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 13: that the heart and really doing more, more for the bodies,

930
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 13: more on the field, more communication, more energy. And I

931
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 13: feel like that energy even though the communication went always

932
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 13: great last year, it's still led to a lot of

933
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 13: great things and great results. So you know, I've really

934
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 13: really impressed with how got some responded on both sides,

935
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 13: and you got to keep this up. We gotta can

936
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 13: continue this through the weekend, through the year.

937
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,759
Speaker 15: How are your in your line feel so far or

938
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 15: do you have you continue to reaggivate on your pipe

939
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,280
Speaker 15: plane or they feel.

940
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:52,240
Speaker 8: That you watched.

941
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 13: Actually, this week has been a really great week for

942
00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 13: me as far as you know, recovering and managing this pain.

943
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 13: You know, this is this is part of the best

944
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 13: I felt, you know, since last year today. So I'm

945
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 13: really starting to feel like myself again. And you know,

946
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 13: I'm trending in the right direction. So We're gonna continue

947
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 13: to sound what we got going now and hopefully a

948
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 13: week or two or you know, who knows when, but

949
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 13: you know, at least by mid season, I'm sure I'll

950
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:22,240
Speaker 13: start to really feel like myself.

951
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 10: And I think guys tighten tackling when you don't tackle

952
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 10: in a frank because I understand why you don't do

953
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 10: that like this, but just how do you clean that

954
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 10: up without actually physically doing it in preparation.

955
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 8: Because tackling is about.

956
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 13: Toughness and angles, learn learning the space, learn how to

957
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 13: square guy up, and then you know the finishing through part.

958
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 13: You've been doing that for years. You've been doing that

959
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 13: since you know, you played piev or high school or whatever.

960
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 13: You know, a lot of the guys are able to

961
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 13: to run fast. But as Schwartz will say, it's a

962
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 13: it's a cutback league.

963
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:57,360
Speaker 5: You know.

964
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 13: Now everybody has that stop on a dime ability. So

965
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 13: you have to be able to square a guy up

966
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 13: and know you know, how to get to that angle

967
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 13: on his hip to where you know if he's gonna

968
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,359
Speaker 13: make that cutback. I'm right there from treating my shot,

969
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 13: and you know a lot of a lot of guys

970
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,280
Speaker 13: were near that right position.

971
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 8: You know, we just have to find tune and I

972
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 8: think you know it'll be a lot better displayed when

973
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 8: you watch Daniel's.

974
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 14: People's really comfortable pocket for me and maybe pens throws

975
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 14: to sit back there.

976
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 7: So how do you get him out of the comfortable

977
00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 7: that he seems like a scale of the life?

978
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 13: Right?

979
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 8: Pressure, lots of pressure doesn't.

980
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 13: Have to be you know, witches or five men six

981
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 13: mint pressure that four men has to has to get

982
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 13: pressure on him, you know, down the middle to make

983
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 13: him uncomfortable to step into those throws and those uh,

984
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 13: those easy alleys you know while you're while you're bullying,

985
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 13: you know, get those hands up, get those easy PBUs.

986
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 8: But don't stop rushing.

987
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 13: You know, can't allow can't allow us to start you know,

988
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 13: hopping up and allow him angle to escape the pocket.

989
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 13: But on the way to get into him, you know,

990
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 13: start to know tip some of those those uh those

991
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 13: passes that he's trying to throw quick and uh you

992
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 13: Nuggetaine to rust win when he uh, he's willing to

993
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 13: hold the ball.

994
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:10,400
Speaker 5: Challenges.

995
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 8: I think it's always a challenge for us.

996
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 13: You know, every everyone provides a unique challenge as far

997
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 13: as you know what they're doing and how they're they're uh,

998
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 13: you know, operating, especially them. You know they're they're going quick,

999
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,240
Speaker 13: their speed breaking, they're change up there, change up the cadence,

1000
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 13: and he's he's got them really rolling. So just a

1001
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 13: matter of you know, getting getting into a rhythm early

1002
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 13: and getting him out there rhythm early.

1003
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 8: Last week you had two shots, you're doing these injuries.

1004
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:39,879
Speaker 8: How were you able to be so fast?

1005
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 13: It's the only way I know how to be, you know,

1006
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,440
Speaker 13: you know how to give one hundred percent and and

1007
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 13: and find a way. You know something's not working or

1008
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 13: you know, maybe even the school rust's not there, then

1009
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:57,800
Speaker 13: you know, I feel like, you know, we've worked on

1010
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,319
Speaker 13: a multitude of moves as a as.

1011
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,319
Speaker 8: A team, and you know, with Jock and those guys

1012
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 8: that uh, you know, they can.

1013
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 13: Compare me to going deeper into the bag and find something. No, no,

1014
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 13: start doing inside rushers, start start doing speed of power,

1015
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 13: you know, work on the spend. So those things allow

1016
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 13: me to to uh rely on other things when when

1017
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,399
Speaker 13: maybe you know, this this angle hurts more.

1018
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,319
Speaker 8: Than another, this step or anything like that. But they

1019
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 8: just gotta want it.

1020
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 13: It's gotta it's got to take everything, and you know,

1021
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 13: you just gotta make that decision that I'm pushing through

1022
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 13: it all because it means something to me.

1023
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:31,959
Speaker 16: One for you to see and get.

1024
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 7: A shot or during your practice this week, and how

1025
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 7: much your.

1026
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 8: Inspiration is engine.

1027
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:37,399
Speaker 13: I was happy to see him and take you pushed

1028
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 13: me in the back a little pass play. But I

1029
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 13: always glad to see that. I mean, he's one of

1030
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,800
Speaker 13: the he's one of the cornerstones of the city. And

1031
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 13: not only is not only the team, but you know,

1032
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 13: it was Cleveland, so it's always nice to see his face.

1033
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 13: You know, I can't say here's voice because you know

1034
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 13: they don't say nothing, but but I mean, the guy's

1035
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 13: just uh small beacon hope. So let's let's keep it going.

1036
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 13: Let's hope Batman and is able to help return and

1037
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 13: help the offense, help this team and uh, you know

1038
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 13: keep let's keep us going and get this run started.

1039
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 8: The Raiders run and.

1040
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 12: Knowing the Condors have such a poindings like the anils.

1041
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 8: Kicking, like focus on that a oh for sure.

1042
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 13: Now we know how tough you know, all of their

1043
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 13: backs are and uh, you know, no matter who plays,

1044
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 13: so they have you know, talented backs that that can

1045
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 13: uh you know, get upfield and then rack up yards

1046
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 13: with a quickness. We run run very hard, so we

1047
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 13: have to make sure that you know where we need

1048
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,399
Speaker 13: to be. We're tackling well, we're physical, and we're moving

1049
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,839
Speaker 13: the line of scrimmage and uh, I would say, it's

1050
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 13: it's a bit renewed. And you know we have to

1051
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 13: take away that that reliance from them on that uh

1052
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 13: on that run game. So they have to solely focus

1053
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 13: on the dropping back.

1054
00:45:57,880 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 1: That'll do it. For this episode of the From the
