WEBVTT - Press Pass: Chip Kelly

0:00:06.360 --> 0:00:13.920
<v Speaker 1>True practice today. Did you say normal length practices or

0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:17.480
<v Speaker 1>is typically what you have normal? Is a normal Tuesday?

0:00:18.120 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Do you have any sense of zach Ertz and what

0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:23.520
<v Speaker 1>his situation is going to the opening? What'll monitorum during

0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:25.360
<v Speaker 1>the week. But he's cleared to go today, so we'll

0:00:25.400 --> 0:00:29.480
<v Speaker 1>see how how he handles it. Parker Smith is cleared

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:31.319
<v Speaker 1>to go today, so we'll see how he handles it. Also,

0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:36.559
<v Speaker 1>so in the preseason kind of impacted your ability to

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>judge his progress as a blocker. Yeah, I mean we

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 1>didn't get him into game, so but I think he

0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:47.320
<v Speaker 1>has improved. You can tell from a technical standpoint what

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:49.960
<v Speaker 1>he's done, and Justin can tell that during drill work

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>what he's what he's done to improve from that standpoint,

0:00:52.000 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>soaring for a new coach and running ahead the yeah,

0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 1>you don't. You know, you just got some preseason games

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:06.039
<v Speaker 1>and obviously I don't think Dan used everything in the preseason,

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:10.240
<v Speaker 1>both offensively and defensively. Um, you know, just because of

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:13.039
<v Speaker 1>the how preseason expresses itself. So you got to kind

0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:14.840
<v Speaker 1>of look at the coordinators and where they came from

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:16.960
<v Speaker 1>and kind of match up what you think is going

0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:18.560
<v Speaker 1>to happen. But they'll have to be some in game

0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>adjustments both offensively and defensively in terms of what we're

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 1>preparing for. He did, but also their coordinator came from Denver,

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:30.320
<v Speaker 1>so you know, I think you got to look at

0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>where they all came from. Same thing. Offensively, Kyle's there,

0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 1>but it's not exactly what he did at Washington because

0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.039
<v Speaker 1>obviously Matt Ryan's a little bit different than RG three.

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>But UM, you know, you got a understanding of what

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:42.160
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna do. But there'll be things that they show

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 1>um in the first game that they didn't show in

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>the preseason. We just had him. He was our highest

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 1>we have everybody rated. He was the highest rated guy

0:01:52.520 --> 0:01:55.840
<v Speaker 1>that was available after the waiver wire went through, So, um,

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, we like his arm. He's got a really

0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>really strong arm. Uh quickly. Jeff Stoutland knows him pretty well.

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Was actually at Miami when he played there, so uh

0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of know the makeup of the player. UM talked

0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 1>to him back when he was coming through the draft process,

0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:12.120
<v Speaker 1>so kind of relied on all of our information that

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>we had, But he was the highest rated guy we

0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 1>had that was on the waive of wire. Behind those

0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:20.240
<v Speaker 1>decisions to it. Now, I just don't want to have

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of free agents when season ends next year,

0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:27.080
<v Speaker 1>next at the end of the season. So say Gardner

0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:31.320
<v Speaker 1>is the garden now, yeah he's starting during game week. Yah,

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.160
<v Speaker 1>so we got the game week he's the starting record.

0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:37.640
<v Speaker 1>You have advantage back here. First game, did you feel

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:41.079
<v Speaker 1>like because he knew what exactly you were going to

0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 1>break the appro game with two guys, So, I mean,

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>you guys jumped in Washington, now, but I mean we

0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 1>did what we did in the preseason though, So it

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.760
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like we didn't do anything really different in that

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:56.040
<v Speaker 1>first game that we didn't do um in the preseason.

0:02:56.160 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>So the second there was going to be tested right

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.520
<v Speaker 1>out of the shoot Lion Leo drones to talk about

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Roddy White and Tammy and there's a lot of a

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:08.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of good players down there, So, um, that's gonna

0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:11.359
<v Speaker 1>be a big matchup. You know, generating a pass rush. Obviously,

0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>pass defense consists of you know, pass rush and pass coverage. So, um,

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>try to get to Matt so we can get the

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 1>ball out of his hands a little bit quicker than

0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>probably he hopes to get it out. But you know,

0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:23.520
<v Speaker 1>it depends on how their protection can hold up versus

0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 1>our rush, and then how does our coverage hold up

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>against some really talented receivers, and especially Julio and Roddy

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 1>those are two of the tops and in a really

0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:32.920
<v Speaker 1>good pair, you know. So it's not like you can

0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:35.040
<v Speaker 1>just always single one guy out that we feel like

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 1>they've got a couple of guys there that you have

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.520
<v Speaker 1>to really put a lot of attention up. Yeah, we

0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 1>did a little mind backer. Then you start of the

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.320
<v Speaker 1>year last year, after the preseason, how confident you go

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.440
<v Speaker 1>to your pass rush? Where do you think that they

0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>are going into We'll see a lot of things Billy

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 1>did Billy that we didn't do a lot of stuff

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:52.520
<v Speaker 1>in the preseason. It was just we did a lot

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 1>of coverage, did a lot of just four and three

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.000
<v Speaker 1>man rushes. So, um, you know, try to try to

0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:00.200
<v Speaker 1>see mix that in with what else we'll do in

0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>terms of game playing for Atlanta. But will confident going

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.240
<v Speaker 1>in the game. As far as Gordon, what did he

0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.280
<v Speaker 1>do from the time he came in last or I

0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 1>guess last ring now that earned as I did commit.

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I just think he's a lot more consistent. Um, you know,

0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>we were excited with how he played during the end

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.240
<v Speaker 1>of last year. Now he played an extensive amount after

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:21.640
<v Speaker 1>Todd get hurt. So, um, it's got a real good

0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 1>grasp of what we're doing. I think he's a real

0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 1>smart football player. Um. And he's always where he's supposed

0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:28.479
<v Speaker 1>to be when he's supposed to be. There's a lot

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:33.160
<v Speaker 1>of consistency and Andrew's play earlier about but Cox being

0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 1>able to play every spot on the line? Was he

0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:38.400
<v Speaker 1>that way when you got here? Did he turn himself

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:41.520
<v Speaker 1>into that kind of player? No, I just think I

0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:43.120
<v Speaker 1>think he was like that. I think he's a multi

0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:46.880
<v Speaker 1>position player along the defensive front, so can play defensive enforcing,

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:49.600
<v Speaker 1>can also play nose force. Um. But I think all

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:51.000
<v Speaker 1>three of those guys I think said can do that,

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think Benny can do that also. So um.

0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:54.800
<v Speaker 1>But that's what you know, that's what he was like

0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 1>when we got here. He's he's very talented player. Sea

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:01.679
<v Speaker 1>last year really shut your offense down better than anybody

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:04.479
<v Speaker 1>with win. Was it their personnel or was it something

0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 1>they were doing schematically? Well both. I mean they are

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.320
<v Speaker 1>extremely talented defense. You know, probably the best corner in

0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 1>the league, best safety in the league. Um, best para

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 1>safety is in the league. Too, so you know they

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:16.600
<v Speaker 1>they had talent across the front. But Dan does a

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:18.720
<v Speaker 1>good job. It's a very sound scheme, you know, and

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:24.640
<v Speaker 1>so um it makes you you'll know they'll be prepared,

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:26.280
<v Speaker 1>so you know you have to be prepared when you

0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 1>go against them. Can you talk a little bit about

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 1>your philosophy of good people making good football players and

0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 1>how that applies specifically to Connor Marwin? I just think

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.440
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of simple. I mean, if if someone is

0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 1>doing the right things all the time, I think what

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:43.919
<v Speaker 1>you do off the field carries over to on the field.

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 1>So I think Connor's a prime example of that. Play

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:51.440
<v Speaker 1>the pass rush of the season, hopefully the same role

0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:52.719
<v Speaker 1>he had last year. I think he led the NFC

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.080
<v Speaker 1>in sax So um, you know we're hoping we can

0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.720
<v Speaker 1>get the similar type production ofut of this year. Is

0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:59.920
<v Speaker 1>there a growth far enough longer you can have a

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:02.440
<v Speaker 1>significant roll right down to the shoot? Where does he

0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:05.320
<v Speaker 1>still need some more seasons in here? I think Eric

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:07.440
<v Speaker 1>and have a significant roll right out the shoot? So um,

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 1>we're confident in Eric going into this game. He tried

0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:14.680
<v Speaker 1>so many different combinations in that secondaries. Do you anticipated

0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:17.560
<v Speaker 1>being a kind of a continuing process for you want

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 1>to just kind of get settled Monday and go to

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>the same leap and especially in the slot, and uh,

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:25.360
<v Speaker 1>whatever's best rust to win is what we're gonna go.

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:30.960
<v Speaker 1>With their defense, you know, I think they've got a

0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.120
<v Speaker 1>good rush. The front four can get after the quarterback

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:37.240
<v Speaker 1>just in a four man rush. UM coverage wise, you

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.720
<v Speaker 1>know Trufon as a kid, I know him really well,

0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:41.240
<v Speaker 1>played against him when he was at Washington. He did

0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 1>not play in the preseason, but has had an outstanding

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:47.160
<v Speaker 1>career so far down at in Atlanta. UM. I think

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.800
<v Speaker 1>their linebackers are active, and I think they've picked up

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 1>on what Dan is trying to do. They look sound

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.480
<v Speaker 1>and and everybody on the same page. And in the

0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:59.359
<v Speaker 1>preseason games that we said easily good dynamic pass rusher,

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:01.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, think you know, they try to always get

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:03.479
<v Speaker 1>him to the open side, so he's not always lined

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.560
<v Speaker 1>up on one side, so he'll he'll be a that'll

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:08.160
<v Speaker 1>be a good test for both JP and Lane. Looking

0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:12.280
<v Speaker 1>back to year Temple shirt, Rock in the Temple shirt,

0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I like it. You walked off the field the Giants team.

0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>Did you visit as much change as there's been as

0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:20.800
<v Speaker 1>your head in Orlando. I mean I didn't walk off

0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:22.720
<v Speaker 1>the Giants field thinking about any type of change. I

0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 1>was worried about the bus ride home, to be honest

0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:29.200
<v Speaker 1>with And just every offseason there's always turnover on a team.

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the turnover when it's finally settled and

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:33.920
<v Speaker 1>how many players we have knew was really not any

0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:35.960
<v Speaker 1>different than any team that this. You know, that's just

0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:37.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of what happens in this league. That's a nature

0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 1>of the business. So are you guys, like at the

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 1>point where you're pretty sure, like what you're gonna do

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 1>is with regards to like the nicol and there's third safety,

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.280
<v Speaker 1>or you're still experimenting and or how's that now we

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:54.840
<v Speaker 1>get a game plan? What's up? Yeah, if it benefited us,

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:56.640
<v Speaker 1>I would, But I don't see it benefiting us. Does it?

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 1>The Mets on other Laeael Zoe? You know, you just

0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:04.440
<v Speaker 1>watch how hard they played. Um, you know, got a

0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:07.040
<v Speaker 1>chance to watch their game on Saturday, and uh, and

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I've seen a lot of their games. You know, I

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.680
<v Speaker 1>go over We have practiced on Saturday on Saturday morning

0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 1>and then we'll go over and catch some games over there.

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.600
<v Speaker 1>So I've seen him play you know, the last couple

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 1>of years and I see the team keep improving. He's

0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:24.400
<v Speaker 1>doing a hell of a job. We're really talking about

0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.280
<v Speaker 1>text messages between two men right now. I said, congratulations

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:34.400
<v Speaker 1>on the winning bat. And running backs were banged up

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>one preseason, but you get a sense of their running games, yeah,

0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 1>because they're rookies, you know. And so you look at

0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:42.719
<v Speaker 1>Tevin Coleman when he what he did at Indiana, you know,

0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:44.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of look at that. He didn't play a ton

0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:46.000
<v Speaker 1>of stunts, but he did play in the last preseason game,

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:47.640
<v Speaker 1>so you know, you get a chance to see him

0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:50.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit and he's a big, physical back, runs downhill,

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.200
<v Speaker 1>plays behind his path. So um got a pretty good

0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:55.480
<v Speaker 1>field just off of what anybody would have with any

0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 1>type of rookie playing, uh, playing in his first game.

0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:00.120
<v Speaker 1>But he's a tough, hard nosed, physical running game. Did

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:02.360
<v Speaker 1>were a lot of penough surprises where she Bailey wasn't

0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:05.160
<v Speaker 1>put on the practice squad. What went into the thinking

0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:07.720
<v Speaker 1>and smiling, you know, pretty more team. We just great

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:09.679
<v Speaker 1>every player and we had you know, she did a

0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:12.160
<v Speaker 1>really nice job here. But when you look at inside receiver,

0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 1>outside receiver, special teams, we just had Freddie and Koran

0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.960
<v Speaker 1>rated higher. Something she needs to do to be in NFL.

0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 1>We just needs to continue to improve. But I mean

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:24.280
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a tough deal now, you know, making an

0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>NFL team and uh, whether it's on the fifty three

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 1>man roster or the practice squad. Um. But he he

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:31.640
<v Speaker 1>coming from where he came from. I thought he had,

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:34.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, really worked extremely hard at it. I actually

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:36.120
<v Speaker 1>talked to a CFL team called about him yesterday. So

0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I hope he continues to play because I think he's

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.080
<v Speaker 1>got a bright future. But we just go on who

0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 1>we got graded higher and who the best are at

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:46.040
<v Speaker 1>that position. So Johnson said, a three steady transition in

0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the NFL compared to some other players at this position.

0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 1>What do you think the key to that has been?

0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:52.959
<v Speaker 1>Is it playing with a good line? Is it just

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:56.240
<v Speaker 1>something Lane does? Now? I think it's based on the individual,

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, and I think Lane, we were excited that

0:09:58.360 --> 0:09:59.599
<v Speaker 1>we had an opportunity to get in mind it. We

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:01.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't know he was gonna be around when we picked it.

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Four Um, but he's got a great skill set. He's tall,

0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:08.360
<v Speaker 1>he's long, Uh, he's physical, he runs extremely well for

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:11.800
<v Speaker 1>someone that size. Um, in the big thing with Lanez,

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:13.439
<v Speaker 1>he was just raw. I didn't play, he didn't have

0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:16.000
<v Speaker 1>a ton of snaps at tackle. You know, he can

0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:19.160
<v Speaker 1>started off as a JC kid that was a quarterback,

0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:21.199
<v Speaker 1>then played some tight end, then played some defensive ent

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and just had a minimum amount of snaps um as

0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:25.559
<v Speaker 1>an offensive tackle compared to some other guys. But I

0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:28.520
<v Speaker 1>think what we saw is a guy that had a

0:10:28.559 --> 0:10:31.000
<v Speaker 1>great potential and I think he's he's fulfilling that potential

0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>right now, who was so raw and inexperienced able to

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.199
<v Speaker 1>kind of avoid some of the bumps in the road

0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:38.920
<v Speaker 1>that that a looted with the other guys at those

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:40.600
<v Speaker 1>one on one positions kind of. I think he had

0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:42.600
<v Speaker 1>some bumps when he was a rookie, just like anybody else.

0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 1>But I think it goes to his work ethic and

0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:48.480
<v Speaker 1>how hard he works at his craft. So outside linebacker

0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:50.679
<v Speaker 1>kind of settling on that he had is there's no

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:55.400
<v Speaker 1>dry setbacks with Marcus being a guy. It depends really

0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 1>what happens with Marcus health buys. But you know, Vinnie's

0:10:57.640 --> 0:11:00.160
<v Speaker 1>out there full time now. So um, you got any

0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:02.600
<v Speaker 1>you got Matt, you got, I mean, you have Vinnie

0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:05.920
<v Speaker 1>got Brad Jones and you've got Brian Brayman. If Simitty

0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:10.160
<v Speaker 1>can't go to see Sam play full NFL game, which

0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>really hasn't thought it for two years, not very I

0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:15.720
<v Speaker 1>mean it's not a big deal. I mean, I'm we're

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 1>eager to go play. So it's not about watching one

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.320
<v Speaker 1>guy play, and am I eager to see Sam play

0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.400
<v Speaker 1>as opposed to to Marco play or anybody else that's

0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:24.920
<v Speaker 1>new or Byron Maxwell. It's we're just excited to go

0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:29.160
<v Speaker 1>play a game, play exclusively at outside. I did not

0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.880
<v Speaker 1>say that. I said Vinnie's at yeah, in meetings and

0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.680
<v Speaker 1>in practice, but Vinnie can still play defensive line because

0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:38.160
<v Speaker 1>he has a tad bit of experience at playing the

0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:41.559
<v Speaker 1>defensive line position. So when I referenced ten linebackers the

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.920
<v Speaker 1>other day, less and you were confused, we count Vinnie

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.559
<v Speaker 1>as an outside linebacker in our mix. We have six

0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:50.199
<v Speaker 1>outside linebackers, four inside linebackers as six defensive linement. But

0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:52.439
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't mean Vinnie's not gonna line up on the

0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:54.360
<v Speaker 1>defensive line in the Atlanta game. So don't come back

0:11:54.400 --> 0:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>in on Tuesday and say you didn't say Vinny wasn't

0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:58.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna play on the defensive line. He'll play defensive line,

0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 1>he'll play nose guard, he'll play for yes, you will lesson, Yeah,

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:07.800
<v Speaker 1>you'll find something to complain about. What time. I mean,

0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:10.400
<v Speaker 1>he's still getting reps down at the end of Yeah,

0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:13.000
<v Speaker 1>everybody gets reps. But he's meeting with the outside linebackers

0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:15.080
<v Speaker 1>now because he's been in the defensive line meeting room

0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:18.080
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. So he didn't see a lot

0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:19.679
<v Speaker 1>of wits. He didn't see a lot of witzing. Is

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:22.080
<v Speaker 1>that kind of the last thing he has to answer? Oh,

0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I think he's up blitz. Did you see the Backers game? Yeah,

0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:29.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean the touchdown passed he threw with a guy

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and his girl I think was a blitz on fourth

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:33.800
<v Speaker 1>and three. So yeah, I mean there were people came

0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:37.480
<v Speaker 1>after him. Tim get hit around a little bit. Kay, Thanks,

0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Thanks getting sh
