1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: Bill, How are we doing today? Good? Kristen Lou, how's

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: it gone? Good? So? What do you do on bye

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: weekend when you get a few days off? Do you

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: get totally away from this and get your head absorbed

5
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: in something other than football? What do you sit there

6
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: and start going over jets film? What do you do? Yeah?

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: A little bit of both. That's good, Uh, get ahead

8
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,319
Speaker 1: a little bit, um, But it's also good to forget

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 1: about football for a few hours. Can you decompose? Hour?

10
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, can you decompose? You're in the

11
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: middle of the football season. It seems to me like

12
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: your head is in football? Football? Football? How the hell

13
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: do you decompose for even a couple of days. Yeah, well,

14
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: it's it's not that hard. Yeah, really, Yeah, there's definitely

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: a saturation level. It's good, too, good to back it

16
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 1: off for a little bit and then then get refreshed.

17
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: Did you get away for a couple of days? Uh,

18
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: a little bit? Maybe? Good day? Yeah, I know, I know.

19
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: Any times a good time for a bye week. But

20
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: I used to love the bye week when it when

21
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: it came after the eighth game, like that halfway point, right,

22
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: and you guys have six what six games left in

23
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: the regular season, where really guys are getting healthy at

24
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: the right time. I mean, is that the ideal scenario

25
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: for you? You know, it was having like I guess,

26
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 1: I guess I would be a short push, right, um,

27
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 1: because I remember one time we had it that for

28
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: the second game when it was in Seattle. It was

29
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: a nightmare. Yeah, well, they gave to us early there

30
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: in two thousand and one, they gave it to us

31
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: the last week, that's right. Have you ever seen a

32
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: team who has it like I want to say the

33
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: San Diego Chargers one year had it. Their first week

34
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: was a bye week like years ago, so they went

35
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: sixteen straight when right out of camp had a bye

36
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: week and kind of defeat. We do you have any

37
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: control and the like? No, they just the only the

38
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 1: only control you have is if you play in the

39
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: Europe game, then you get it the following week. So

40
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: when we played, uh, Tampa and the Rams in London,

41
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: we had it the following week. Remember that was Hurricane

42
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: Sandy one year and uh But you're right, anytimes a

43
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: good time. When whever you get it, you get it,

44
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: so be happy with it and move on. So the Jets,

45
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: obviously Jet week, big week for you guys. But do

46
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: you with the extra time, do you spend any time

47
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: looking ahead, any homework looking ahead to maybe that follow

48
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: one week or or is it all just about the Jets?

49
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: Like an extra week and a half two weeks if

50
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: for the Jets, well, the way the schedule falls. Although

51
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: the Jets have played a couple of teams that were

52
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: going to play. So they played Buffalo last week, we

53
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 1: still have them. They played Miami a couple of weeks ago,

54
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: we have them. They played Minnesota, we have them. So

55
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: there's some crossover games there that as we watch the Jets,

56
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: we also see somebody else. Do you sit down and

57
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: watch that Minnesota game last night like the rest of

58
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: us do? What did you just say, I'll see it

59
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: later on? I saw some of it. Yeah, I lasted

60
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: it till about the third middle of the third quarter.

61
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 1: That was all good. Couldn't couldn't last longer than that?

62
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: Did you gain anything from like Chris Collinsworth, like the

63
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: analysts like when they're breaking stuff down, they're like, oh,

64
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: that's a good point. Do you watch it as a fan?

65
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: Are you critiquing as you go? Yeah? It's hard to

66
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: TV Scout occasionally they gave you some good insight. You know,

67
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: they talk to somebody and maybe they comment on, well,

68
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: this is how the coach said we were going to

69
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 1: do this, or this our players said we're going to

70
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: do that. But that's say for the most part, that's

71
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: just as a fan. You're just kind of watching it.

72
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 1: So you've talked last week about first week, if the

73
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: bye week is getting your own act together, your own team.

74
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: So getting healthy would be the biggest positive going forward.

75
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: But what else do you believe is something you need

76
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: to do here if you're going to be successful and

77
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: reach your goal. Well, big thing we want to do

78
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: is try to improve, and we can do that in

79
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: every area. So we've looked at those offensively, defensively, special teams,

80
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: running game, passing, game fundamentals, tendencies, so forth. So I

81
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: think we'll take action where we can this week. Some

82
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: of those things that we looked at won't apply this week,

83
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: some of them will, and we'll just take a week

84
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: by week. Or how important is that we were talking

85
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: about this earlier? How important is the running game? You

86
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: had a game in which you took a wide receiver

87
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: and you used them as a running back because you

88
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: had injuries. How important is establishing that running game to

89
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: take the pressure off of Brady in your passing game,

90
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: to be able to make that defense play honestly built

91
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: and open up what we believe is a really potent offense. Well,

92
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: if it's if you can be successful at it, it's good.

93
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: I don't personally believe that you do something just to

94
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: do it just for the sake of doing it. Our

95
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: goal is to move the ball and score points. So

96
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 1: if we're doing that, if they're all runs or if

97
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: they're all passes, that doesn't really matter to me, as

98
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: long as we move the ball and score points. If

99
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: they're balanced, that's fine too, So we'll we'll just have

100
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: to see against. Some of that depends on where we're at.

101
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: Some of it depends on what we're seeing from our opponents.

102
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: It's it important note to get the defense of the

103
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: opponent to respect what you're doing in a running game.

104
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: If they know that you can't run, or they don't

105
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: feel that you're capable of doing it, oh, if they're

106
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: not defending the run, then you've got to be able

107
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,239
Speaker 1: to run it, that's right. And if they if you can't,

108
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 1: then they'll continue to not defend it, and you'll probably

109
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: be throwing against something that you don't want to throw at.

110
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: But if they're gonna put everybody on the line of

111
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: scrimmage and then have more guys than you can block

112
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: up there, I don't know how many times you want

113
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: to run it in there for one yard just to say, well,

114
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: we ran it. I don't really think that is the answer,

115
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: you know, I know. I think last week people are

116
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: asking you, reports are asking you about special teams and

117
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: kick returns, and well, you guys rank and it's just

118
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: not normally a Patriot team. I think it was twenty

119
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: nine and kick return the new rule not being able

120
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: to run up. How much of a role is that

121
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: playing into it versus obviously just being bed or at

122
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: of coaching it up better, but just not being able

123
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: to run up. Is that affecting the kick returns? Those

124
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: guys getting more of a return because of it. Well,

125
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: I think the rules have affected the return game a

126
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: little bit, but we're all playing on the same rules,

127
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: so we just we have to do a better job

128
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: of coaching and playing and executing than what we have.

129
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: But maybe more so in the past. Do you think of, well,

130
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: we got a guy that can kick out of the

131
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 1: Endzon'll let you just do that. It's starting to twenty

132
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: five and go from there. Well, that's um. Again, that's

133
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: a possible strategy. I would say there's times that we're

134
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: going to be playing in the next six weeks that

135
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: just wouldn't be possible. Is it weather? Yeah, And I

136
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: think the last six games, or five of the six anyway,

137
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: we played one in Miami, but five of the six

138
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: potentially cold weather days with win, so um, that may

139
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: affect a kicking game more than what it has in

140
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: some of the previous ten that we've played. So we'll

141
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: have to see how that goes. There's no way to

142
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: predict it, but it's certainly a possibility. Something we have

143
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: to be more aware of than you would be in

144
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 1: like in your September games. Is that for the special teams?

145
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: Is it specifically kickoff and kickoff return? Is it one

146
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 1: of those situations? Is it more scheme or is it

147
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: personnel or is it a mix of the two. I

148
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: think we have enough players. I think we've been good

149
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: at times, we just haven't been consistent. So we have

150
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: to we have to coach it better and we have

151
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: to we have to execute it better, and we're gonna

152
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: be seeing good returners, certainly this week with Roberts, but

153
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: we'll be seeing good returners here all the way through

154
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: till the end of the season. So our coverage units

155
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: are going to be challenged every week, which they normally

156
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: are on the National Football League, but they certainly will

157
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: be the next six weeks. So we'll find out where

158
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: we're at when when there's no tackling, you know, really

159
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: at all anymore, and especially how tough it is to

160
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: I guess coach up. How do you I'm just trying to,

161
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: you know, how do you coach these guys up as

162
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: far as just making it work when you can't physically

163
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: tackle them? Because tagging off is one thing on a

164
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: guy that's running, you know, a four four whatever, and

165
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: actually trying to tackle that guy in space is a

166
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: whole nother thing. Is there a specific way that you

167
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: guys go about teaching them how to handle those situations? Well,

168
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: we work on tack line every day, so um yeah,

169
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: we I mean, we we work on it, we emphasize it,

170
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: and we got to do a better job of it.

171
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: But we're we're hunting every day since first day training camp,

172
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: since even in the spring. It's the most important fundamental

173
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: there is running and tackling, so um, we constantly work

174
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: on those. This is a random question and I had

175
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: a debate. I had a debate with this guy about this. Uh,

176
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: like last week. Okay, you're the first guy down, you're

177
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: a gunner or whatever. You're the first guy down on

178
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: the punt team, wide open space. Um, would would you

179
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: throw at a guy and almost burn that guy down

180
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: just to make the running back the punt returner kind

181
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: of move around and slow down, or would you expect

182
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: that person to, I guess, break down and try to

183
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: make a tackle. Like, what's what's the coaching point there?

184
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: Throwing out a guy right away like a bullet, like

185
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: a missile, just to try and see if you can

186
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: make a play, or should that person break down right beforehand? Well,

187
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: I think there's a little bit of a gray area there,

188
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: depends on how how good of a shot you have

189
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: at the runner. But let's just say you don't say

190
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: he has a little bit of time and space to

191
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: avoid you. Then what we would want to do is

192
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: is maintain some type of leverage on the runner, so

193
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: you're so where you're diving at the person would it

194
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: would be as you want to send him like to

195
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: the sideline. That's right. So if I'm on the right

196
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: side of you, um, I want to keep him from

197
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: going to my right and push him back to the

198
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 1: left because any teammates that I have, they see me

199
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: over there, they kind of expect me to hold that

200
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: leverage and if I lose it, then they've committed to

201
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: another spot and now I've lost what I have and

202
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: now who takes that over? So so I was technically

203
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: right O course, yeah, great, Like the other guy said,

204
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: it might payoff. People have been asking you about ball

205
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: distribution because it looks a little bit different than what

206
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: we've seen in the past. You've always said that Tom

207
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: Brady throws to the open guy. There's a certain thing

208
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: is in a certain way that we play, but we

209
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: want to go to the open guy. Do you feel

210
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: to this point that's the way the ball has been

211
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: distributed or is that something that you feel needs to

212
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: be improved on. Well, I think we can do better

213
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: in every area running game, passing game, run defense, pass defense,

214
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: special teams. So we've addressed everything, looked at everything, and

215
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: talked to each of our players about areas that they

216
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: can improve in and hopefully we'll have more production in

217
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 1: the passing game. Hopefully we'll have more production in the

218
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: running game, Hopefully we'll score more points. Is there a

219
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: guy so far just called the midway point that's lived up?

220
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: The expectations are actually exceeded your expectations based on what

221
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: you thought they were capable of doing when the season started.

222
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: I don't know I've really thought about that. Christian. I'd say,

223
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: right now, what our mentality is is where everybody wherever,

224
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: anybody is right now, coaches, players, whatever their role is,

225
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: let's try to move past it and move into higher ground.

226
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: Let's try to improve by five ten percent each one

227
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: of us, all seventy of us, including the coaches and

228
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: practice squad players, seventy five miny it is, let's all

229
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: of us try to improve five ten percent. Well, what

230
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: can we do better? How can we contribute more or

231
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: contribute at a higher level than we're contributing right now?

232
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: And I think we all do that the team will

233
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: benefit greatly. So Coach Matt Patricia had his team coach

234
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: outside in the snow and the next five games you're

235
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: all indoors. You guys, is different. You guys have to

236
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: perform in that weather. But when you go out and

237
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: practice in bad weather rather than say, indoors, is it

238
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: more than just preparing for cold weather? Do you do

239
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: that too to test your guys, like mentally kind of

240
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: find out guys. I don't want to hear you make complaining, bitching,

241
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: making excuses. Is that part of the reasons why you

242
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: would do something like that as well? Well? The majority

243
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: of our games are outdoors loose, so whatever whatever the

244
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 1: conditions are there are, we can't control them. So if

245
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 1: we practice in the I think eventually we're going to

246
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: play in them. I don't know when. It might be

247
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 1: this week, it might be next week, might be next year. Again,

248
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: those things are not not that easily predictable. But at

249
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: some point we're gonna face win. We're gonna face coal,

250
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna face heat, we're gonna face the sun. We're

251
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: gonna have to you know, we're gonna have to deal

252
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: with all those conditions. So we go out there and

253
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 1: practice in them that whenever they come up and we're

254
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: ready for him, you will face the sun because you're

255
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: playing at one o'clock. You're playing about four o'clock. Might

256
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: understand like handling kicks in the sun and that type

257
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 1: of thing, you know that came up in the Chicago.

258
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: You've been doing it. So how different? How different do

259
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: you coach? And you've had great success in December in

260
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: late November, how different do you coach because you're playing

261
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 1: against you know, in the cold weather, and you might

262
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: be playing against some teams that are not accustomed to

263
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: playing in the cold weather. How different do you coach

264
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: in this weather as opposed to earlier in the season. Well,

265
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: sometimes the weather affects what you can or can't do,

266
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: so you have to take that in consideration. But ultimately

267
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: it comes down to the players and their ability to

268
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: execute the plays. So if we can execute them, great,

269
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: If we can't execute them, then we pull them out

270
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: out and try to do something that we can execute.

271
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 1: So throwing fifty yard post patterns into a twenty mile

272
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: in our wind, is that's not the time for that play.

273
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: Maybe it's when you're going in the other direction or

274
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: what have you. So throwing outside routes if if you

275
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: have a swirling, tough wind like we had in Buffalo,

276
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: sometimes those limit the number of throws or the type

277
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: of throw that a quarterback can make out there so

278
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: it changes the way you might defend it and also

279
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: changes what you call on that. Maybe adjust the routes

280
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: that are running out route. Maybe you run a shorter route,

281
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: that's a hitch, that's a little tighter throw, it's a

282
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: little more direct throw for the quarterback. As an example, Well,

283
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: you guys change up the schedule this week because it's Thanksgiving.

284
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: You guys work that day, you know, put in a

285
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 1: bunch of work beforehand. They come back on Friday or which, Yeah,

286
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: we'll try to get ahead of a little bit, so

287
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: we don't aren't doing as much one. Thanks you. Well, right,

288
00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: well this is uh, this is our question of the weekend. Well,

289
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: I guess i'll end with this. I had this debate

290
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: with the little earl over here. That's his nickname if

291
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: you're wondering um, And you know, a lot of a

292
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: lot of these analysts put so much faith in all

293
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: these different you know, companies of Pro Football Focus and

294
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: you know stat Cast or whatever it is, and I

295
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: was I was thinking that the only way you can

296
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: really get the true analysis of whether a guy is

297
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: good or not as if the coach gives you the answers,

298
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: like the coach is going to have to give you

299
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: a grade on that player, because only you know if

300
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: he was doing the right thing or not, if you

301
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: should have caught the ball or not. So how does

302
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: that guy know? Do you think they'll come a point

303
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: well that that at some point time that where your guys'

304
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: grades will be public knowledge. Yeah, well I was just Mike,

305
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: I don't know why you're laughing at that guy. I

306
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: like it. No, it look it's I think it's a

307
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: great question. So you see, if you see a play

308
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: on film and um, a receiver goes on cover down

309
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: the field, so you know that it's probably one of

310
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: two guys mistakes, but you don't necessarily know which guy

311
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: it is, right, Yeah, and so but a lot of

312
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: times you see the announcers say, well, you know, Fourier

313
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: should have taken them more Belichick should have taken them,

314
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: And I'm looking at the play saying, well, it could

315
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: have been either guy. It just depends on what the

316
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: call was and what they were doing. A lot of

317
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: times we look at our plays and we see a

318
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: mistake there. Maybe maybe we come off the field and

319
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: you know, a guy makes the tackle in the backfield

320
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: and we're like, oh my god, this guy made a mistake,

321
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: and then he tells us that we'll know at the

322
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: line we called something else and so it wasn't him,

323
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: it was actually another guy. So and a lot of

324
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: times on film we see that, we see a mistake

325
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: and then we say, well, you know what, we have

326
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: to go back and hear what the call was before

327
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: we can. We know somebody's wrong here, but it just

328
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: depends on what the call was as the which guy's

329
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: right and which guy's wrong, And so times we don't

330
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: know what happened until Monday. We know it's a problem

331
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: on the play, but until you actually talk to the

332
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: players and say, okay, what happened on this play? Oh

333
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: I thought he said this, or oh I you know

334
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: he said it, I didn't hear it, or he said this,

335
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: but I played that whatever it is. So you're right.

336
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: In terms of analytics, you get a lot of you know,

337
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: this guy should have them, that guy should have them.

338
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: But I know from our team there are times when

339
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: we don't know exactly what went wrong until you can

340
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: really swart the playouts. There's no way anybody else could know,

341
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: is the point. And that's uh. Sometimes what it looks

342
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: like is not what it is. And then you often see,

343
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: you know, players, defensive backs, somebody gets behind the defense

344
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: or a touchdown and they kind of pull off or

345
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: don't chase because I don't want to really be chasing

346
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: the guy because it looks like it was their guy,

347
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: you know, the type of thing, you know, So there

348
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 1: are some plays like that that kind of definitely skew it,

349
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: and a lot of times they're big plays. So it's

350
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: an interesting question, and it's an interesting point about you know,

351
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: who who's at fault? Who does what? UM? And it's

352
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: it's pretty actually pretty common for that to be UM.

353
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: It's pretty frequent that that comes up. So like a

354
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: lot of times you have the center slides one way

355
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: on pass protection right, so you have a center guard

356
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: and a tackle blocking a defensive tackle on a defensive

357
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 1: end right, so you're three on two, and so if

358
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: one of those guys comes inside, you know, there's do

359
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 1: You just have to know what the rule is and

360
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: might be different from our team to the next team

361
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: as to is the tackle turning that guy over to

362
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: the guard or is he staying with him as the

363
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: guard turning that guy over to the center, or is

364
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: he staying with him and the center's helping him, you know,

365
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: so is it is it two on one or is

366
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 1: it I let him go to the next guy and

367
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: then I, I, you know, push out so um and again.

368
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: Unless you know exactly how that's being coach and with

369
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: the guy with what they're supposed to do, then it's

370
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: hard to know who's right and who's wrong. Something habits

371
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 1: on punt protection as well. You know, you see guys

372
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,719
Speaker 1: come through and a lot of times it's like, oh, well,

373
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: this guy should have blocked him. But depending on what

374
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: the rules are on the pump production and what the

375
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: rush was. In other words, is he going to stay

376
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: on the down guy or are we gonna area the

377
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: down guy and the stack guy? Um could be there

378
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,959
Speaker 1: could be two different ways to do it, and you

379
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: might not know exactly who was responsible for what until

380
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: you you know how it's coached. Well, I was gonna say,

381
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 1: and sometimes he's gonna trust a player because you were

382
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: miked up one time in that touchdown pass him Gordon.

383
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: The Brady threw to Gordon and you even asked him

384
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: coming off who did you throw it to? And I'm

385
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: sure he would never admit that he was over overthrew

386
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: jewels right, So of course he's going to admit that, no,

387
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: I didn't overthrow him. It was perfect pass. So you

388
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: gotta trust a player sometimes, yeah, and which yeah, which

389
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: I do. It's just when I saw Julian jump for

390
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: the ball, I thought that he thought it was going

391
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 1: to him, and then it kind of went over and

392
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: then it was sort of it was a little short

393
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: for Gordon and a little long for for Julian um.

394
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: But then when I'm back and watched the plan film,

395
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: I think Tom was definitely throw it to Gordon, but

396
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: on the field at the time, I wasn't sure. I mean,

397
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: it's unusually have two guys open like that. You're hoping

398
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: for one, and you know, luckily we had two there.

399
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 1: So we in the media we get it wrong all

400
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: the time because we don't know exactly what the specific assignments.

401
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: Like Glenn, we get it wrong too. We're watching another

402
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: team on film and we've watched all their plays and

403
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: we're still at times not sure exactly who was supposed

404
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: to do what. But I'll say this, if you see

405
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: a certain player involved in multiple plays like that, it

406
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter what it was supposed to be. It's

407
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 1: probably they're just going to have problems with it because

408
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: you know a certain players involved in multiple mistakes whatever

409
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: the call was that you know, you just want to

410
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: keep putting the stress on that player. Maybe those combination

411
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: of players, for example, when you have linebackers that are

412
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: moving out into combinations with defensive backs a lot of

413
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: times as linebackers. Because he's not a defensive back and

414
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: he's not in there with the defensive backs all the time,

415
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: and he's involved in a three on three or a

416
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: four on three situations, sometimes he'll make the mistake, whereas

417
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: if it was three dbs or four dbs, they'd have

418
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 1: a better line of communication or better anticipation of what

419
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,120
Speaker 1: the call was going to be how to handle it.

420
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: So Christian wants to solve all the iniquities in the world,

421
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: and what he wants you to do is you as

422
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: a coach, instead of having report cards by the media,

423
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,959
Speaker 1: he wants you to give a report card in each player,

424
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: even the negative grades. I'm not sure you're going to

425
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 1: do that, is I mean, I know Christian, you know

426
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: you've sat in a lot of those meetings and and

427
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: sometimes he kind of run into conflict as a coach

428
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: where you look at the play and all right, so

429
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: let's say defensively, you know, the end, he sort of

430
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 1: does his job, the tackle sort of does his job,

431
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: linebacker sort of his job, the linebacker sort of does

432
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: his job. And against six yards, you're like, wait a minute,

433
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: like everybody's they're kind of doing what they're supposed to do.

434
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 1: There's nobody here. It's really bad. But they just gained

435
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 1: six yards. And you know, we can't have every play

436
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: can't get six yards and everybody does it, does their job, right,

437
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: So then there's got to be a little bit higher

438
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 1: standard of you know, what's what's what's a what's a

439
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: high grade or what's an acceptable grade and what isn't.

440
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 1: And that's a fine line, it really is, because the

441
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 1: players can go out there and do their job, and

442
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 1: then they could do a great job of it. They

443
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 1: could do like, you know, solid job, or it could

444
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: be oh it's not perfect, but it's kind of okay.

445
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 1: And then of course there's the obvious one that it's

446
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: just you know, it's you get beat disaster. That's yeah,

447
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: well so and we all get beat. So that that's

448
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 1: but I'd say there's a gradiation in there between you know,

449
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: great to you know, A, B and C let's call it.

450
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: So you know, maybe sees a passing grade, but you're

451
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 1: really gonna win playing CE football. You know, B is good,

452
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: might be good enough sometimes you know you're looking at that,

453
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: but it's hard to get straight a's out there. I mean,

454
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: you've got some other A players too, So, um, the

455
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: grading part of it's a fine line. It really is

456
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: each grade differently? Sure, well or do you give them

457
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: a template? So this is the way so you could

458
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: evaluate them? Right? Yeah, well I think each so each

459
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: each um let's call it minus is you know, has

460
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: a comment with it so that you can identify again,

461
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: well maybe this wasn't This was a minus, but I

462
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: might look at it and say, well, you know, it

463
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,239
Speaker 1: wasn't really that bad. I mean, he didn't quite get

464
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: it the way, but he's trying, and it was, you know,

465
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: just one of those things that you know, whatever happened,

466
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,239
Speaker 1: but it didn't it didn't go. And then there are

467
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: other ones that are just they're just bad plays or

468
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: they're really really good plays. But all I'm saying is

469
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot of gray in there between, uh, some

470
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: pluses and minuses in between. You know, how players are

471
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: great and you get these organizations that that grade all

472
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 1: the players, and to me, I'm thinking to myself, I

473
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: mean I have a hard time grading the players and

474
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: I know what the call is, there are other things

475
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,439
Speaker 1: that happen on the field that um, that override that

476
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: by a lot, and until you know what those are,

477
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: you can't really grade accurately. You ever had a guy

478
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 1: with a perfect perfect score. Well, look, if you're a corner, um,

479
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: you know you might only be involved in five plays

480
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: a game. I mean it's not like you're playing nose

481
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: tackle game ball perfect score, but you know you won't

482
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: throw my way. Sometimes they're you know, no opportunities something

483
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 1: you know. So if you know there's some players involved

484
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: in a lot of plays, you know, middle linebacker or

485
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: a center, a guard, I mean, they're every single play

486
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: goes through them. And then there are other plays um um.

487
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: If you have defensive ends, I mean, if the ball

488
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: runs one way, the other guys unless they run a reverse,

489
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 1: I mean, the other guys really not that involved in it.

490
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: He has a responsibility to do or But if you're

491
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 1: the backside corner and backside receiver, I mean you've seen

492
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: a receiver grades like, how do you get a minus

493
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: as a receiver, you know, drop the ball, Yeah, that's

494
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: about it. You know. Otherwise, if you run your ten

495
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,719
Speaker 1: yard route or run your fifteen yard route or whatever

496
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: it is, then well you've kind of you know, done

497
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: your assignment. So um, you know, if you drop the ball,

498
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 1: then obviously that's that's a minus. But so I'm just

499
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: saying there's a difference between. It's so really a lot

500
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 1: of those plays or let's call him zeros, I mean

501
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: really not greatable plays. You want the plays. What's the

502
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 1: great on the plays where the players actually involved in

503
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: the play. So for corners and wide receivers, their opportunities

504
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: are a lot less than for interior lineman, linebackers. Guys

505
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: at that quarterback I mean, on a running play unless

506
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: he this is the handoff or something, I mean he's

507
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: really not not really he could screw the play up.

508
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that, but generally speaking, that play now

509
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: belongs to the runner. That's the passing play, and then

510
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: I played belong to the quarterbacks. So when you get

511
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,880
Speaker 1: one of those disastrous plays. Players ex players have told

512
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: us no names that you like to show video to

513
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: everybody is there's certain guys that you know that you

514
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,239
Speaker 1: can play the video and that player is going to

515
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: learn from it and improve, And there are other guys

516
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 1: that you're a little bit concerned that if you show

517
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: it in front of everybody else as opposed to maybe

518
00:24:55,400 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: sitting in talking to him privately. Well, I think, yeah,

519
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 1: I think that's a great question, Glenn. I think that

520
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: that's a great question. And I think the answer to

521
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: that question is if you have a team of eleven

522
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: people on a particular play and something goes wrong on

523
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: that play, right, then how Look, there's the one person

524
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: who made a mistake, but there's ten other people too

525
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 1: that you're also coaching. So when something goes wrong on

526
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: a play like that, your immediate reaction of if you're

527
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 1: one of the eleven players on the field is you know,

528
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: did I do something wrong? Should I have been there?

529
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: Should I have had that? Should I have done this?

530
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: And so I think there's a lot to be said

531
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: to making sure that we understand who made the mistake, like, Okay,

532
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: this is you know, this is Belichick's fault. Everybody else

533
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 1: is Okay, you have to get this corrected. Or there's

534
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: times where I've said to the team, look, this is

535
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 1: just this is just bad coaching. This is a bad

536
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 1: play in this situation. I'm not going to call this again.

537
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 1: This is my fault. Just forget about this one. Okay,

538
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 1: this is this is on me. All right, let's let's

539
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: move forward here. And you know, I'm not going to

540
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 1: call this again in that situation. I put you in

541
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: a bad spot. That's just a bad coaching. And a

542
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: lot of times players will come off and say the

543
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: same thing. It's like, look, I screwed this up. I

544
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 1: should have made the play. I was right there, I

545
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: missed the tackle. Call it again. I'll get it the

546
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: next time. Okay, great. And then there are the ones

547
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 1: that sometimes are a little bit harder to determine. Well,

548
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: I was doing what I thought I was supposed to do.

549
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: Next guy's doing what he thought he's supposed to do.

550
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: Next guy doing what he's supposed to do, and again

551
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: fifteen yards, Well there's something wrong. We have to fix that.

552
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: And so if I just take one guy over in

553
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: the corner and say hey, look, you just do this, well,

554
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: then what about the other ten guys? You know, do

555
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: they know that we have the problem fixed or because

556
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: if you don't identify what's happened wrong, then a lot

557
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 1: of times another player will try to make an adjustment

558
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: so that they run the same play again. Now he

559
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: makes an adjustment because he does something different than he

560
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: did the last time, because he thinks it was wrong. Right,

561
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,479
Speaker 1: so he now needs to know, Okay, you're right, you're right,

562
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,400
Speaker 1: you're right, this is what's wrong. You have to fix it,

563
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: and you have to tell the player that. You have

564
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: to tell the other players that so that they know

565
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: what's right and what's wrong. So was he sensitive and

566
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 1: when you I'm sorry, of course not. No. No, I

567
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 1: think I only messed up on one thing, one thing.

568
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: I think it was on the whole. Like no, no,

569
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: that that's been well documented. Thank you again for bringing

570
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: it up. I appreciate that the video to say, Okay,

571
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: thank you again for retweeting it. That makes me feel

572
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: good inside. No. One of the questions was that you

573
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: were you know, I don't know who we were playing,

574
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: but it was you're doing your normal thing on a Wednesday, okay,

575
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: asking questions. And for some reason I thought you expected

576
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: me to know who the second string strong safety was,

577
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 1: which I probably should have known. But because he went

578
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,199
Speaker 1: to Nebraska, I think that's what it was. He went

579
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: to Nebraska or something like that, and I was like

580
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: the one guy that I was like, eh, I don't

581
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: have to know worry about this guy. I think it

582
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 1: was like a felt like it was like a Okay,

583
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: this guy's a second string strong safety. And you went

584
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: to Nebraska, which is I went to Colorado Rivalry. You

585
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: didn't know. I did not know him. I think I

586
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 1: gave you what but the next week, But the next week,

587
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: I bet you know this guy. Oh hell, yes, always exactly.

588
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: Oh yes, it's not what you don't know, it's what

589
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: what it motivates you do. No, it worked. It definitely worked.

590
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: Every now when I go through my life, I always

591
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: I'm always looking for the second drink songs efty. Oh yeah, yeah,

592
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: I gotta finish this off. Alright. So that was a

593
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: question Slash Drive of the week. See you next week, Bill.

594
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 1: I have a happy Thanksgiving, all right, Thanks Bill Belichick.

595
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: Right here in OMF
