1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 1: Hi, guys, what's going on? Only two three questions today? 2 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,880 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about j C. Jackson something 3 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: Bill said this week, because he's kind of understanding wouldn't 4 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: it be aggressive and when not to be? Is he 5 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: able to be more aggressive when you're in the area 6 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: that maybe help him out? But how do you draw 7 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 1: that line as a as a DC in terms of 8 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: playing it honest and maybe taking the chance? No, I 9 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 1: mean it, I would say it has nothing to do 10 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: with me. I think Jac's just he's starting to understand 11 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: more football, UM, situation of football? You know, what is 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: the situation the offense is in. Is it just regular 13 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 1: early down like the players he made in the game 14 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: against the Jets? Is it third down like he's starting to, 15 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,319 Speaker 1: you know, just pick up more football, understanding what more 16 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: offenses are doing. I think, Um, obviously the guy has 17 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: been a stud, but he's made a lot of plays 18 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: in limited playing time. UM. And I would say last 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: year and too this year, he's really been a full 20 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: time starter out there playing more plays. And I think 21 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: that's when you have to start to grow your just 22 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 1: situation to understanding the football when you come into game 23 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: kind of in certain situations whether it be just a 24 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: passing situation or shots. And I think now he's starting 25 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: to really understand being out there play after play, m 26 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: how teams are gonna try to beat them, what are 27 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: they gonna do? And um, obviously he has incredible ball 28 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: skills and understanding of whining to turn and look for 29 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: the ball and just ball awareness. Um we talk about 30 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 1: all the time. It just seems like if someone fumbles, 31 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: if a ball gets tipped in the air, if you turn, 32 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: there's probably JC that's gonna be around the ball to 33 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: catch it. So um, but I think him he's starting 34 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: to put just a football awareness together with that. And 35 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: obviously you see the results a block next time you're 36 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: returning to you had to add that last part you 37 00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: felt you felt good about that? Nah? No, less directing 38 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: traffic and more blocking. Yeah, uh, we're all for that 39 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: first interception? Is that something you're coached like that? When 40 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: you put it, you're high and you sort of tip. No. 41 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: I mean I wouldn't say you get situations like that 42 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: all the time. Um, but it was more of a 43 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: there was more of us around the ball than them, um, 44 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: and kind of just felt like if I would have 45 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: went to try to catch the ball. I just felt 46 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: like both of our hands would have hit it, and 47 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, nobody would have came down with it. Just 48 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: felt like if I could just tip it. Um. I 49 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 1: knew j C was still around the ball, so um, 50 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: and like we just talked about if any balls in 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 1: the air, Jc's looking for it, so um, just try 52 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: to get the ball away from Corey Davis and closer 53 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: to our guys. This is a comfort reminder when you 54 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: get this because they're gonna throw a lot of looks 55 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: and it's going real pretty. But you know, this is 56 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: the first game all year where we're gonna get that. Like, 57 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: this team has obviously a lot of personnelgres, but I 58 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: would say they have a lot of different skill guys. 59 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: You know, whether Taysom Hills in that tight end or 60 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: Johnson's in that tight end, Like, it's just a whole 61 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 1: it's a different look and neither one of those guys 62 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: are usually going to be the starter out there, you know, 63 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: but Griffin could be in that tighten, Like it's just 64 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: so many different guys, and then Camar can be in 65 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: the backfield, and then Jones can come in, and then 66 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: Kamara could be that receiver. Um. So it's just so 67 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: different than Harris is in the game. And you know, 68 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: Week one he was in the game a lot. Week 69 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: two he wasn't in as much. But like, if he's 70 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: in there, you you definitely want to know he's in 71 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: the game. So um, it's a it's definitely gonna do 72 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: your job game. And I know we say that every week, 73 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: but there's certain games where you know you can't help 74 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: anybody else out. Like, guys have to do their job. 75 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: They have to be where the defense calls them to 76 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: be because if they don't, Sean Payton's gonna have a 77 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: play design to take advantage of that. And I think 78 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: you blame um a bunch of really good skilled players. 79 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: What a guy that's calling plays that understands, um, the 80 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: defense and the weaknesses and the strengths of it. It 81 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: can be tough, and I think that's why you've seen 82 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: over you know, the last what is it, fifteen to twenty, 83 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: the Saints have scored a lot of points and they 84 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 1: do a year in a year out um, and I 85 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: think that's something we gotta be ready for. And they have, 86 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: you know, one of the best running backs and they're 87 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: all the football, So um, if they just hand him 88 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: the ball. That's still trouble. So we have to we 89 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 1: really have to play good as a defense. Sunday, Devin, 90 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: how would you describe facing Mac in practice? Obviously very 91 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: different from the game, but when he's running two minutes 92 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, Yeah, against it. You guys, when 93 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: when we're going again, when you going against either the 94 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: summer or more recently, you're facing Mac getting two minutes 95 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: and you gotta get a stop, but he's transforming it. 96 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: We stop him and a lot of six points. The 97 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: film review positive for the coaches. Still sort of trying 98 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: to motivate here. I mean, it's it's the New England Patriots. 99 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: So if there's mistakes, that's what that's what we talk about. 100 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: The interceptions we watch, we move on. Um. But yeah, 101 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: I mean I wouldn't say it's like they're in there 102 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: just killing us, but it's a sense of urgency to 103 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: fix the problem plays. Um, it's not. It's not. I 104 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: think you guys could probably tell we don't really. We're 105 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: not one of those places where we watched like all 106 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 1: the good plays for like an hour and like zoom 107 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: by the bad plays. It's kind of the other way around. Um. 108 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: But it's good. I think especially when you have a 109 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: game where we last week one, you come back, you 110 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: win week two, I think it's important to understand, like 111 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: why you won, Um, and the reason was because we 112 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: we dissected week one and we figured out what we 113 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: needed to fix, and we did some of that better 114 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: in week two, and now it's like, all right, how 115 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: can we do some of the things we didn't do 116 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: as well better in Week three? Going against a team, 117 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: UM that's playing good football. Know they lost last week, 118 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: but UM, it's they're a good football team or a 119 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: team we don't play off them, we don't see them 120 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: a lot, so UM, it's definitely a cinceeventy Like if 121 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: we don't fix those things, it's gonna be a long 122 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: day Sunday. We touchdowns and ven. You have to kind 123 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: of expect the teams that played the week. We'll see 124 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: the team that played, don't we going? No no doubt 125 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: about it. I mean, they're they're gonna be ready to 126 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: go on the road coming here, Um, coming off a 127 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: tough game against Carolina. They're like, there's no doubt to me, 128 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: UM that they'll be ready and we'll we'll see their 129 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: best stuff and their players will play good football. Um. 130 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: Since I've been here, that's something we always talk about. 131 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: We've watched teams play somebody and it just goes all 132 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: wrong the week before, and then we come out here 133 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,239 Speaker 1: and they play the best game of the year. So um, 134 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:58,119 Speaker 1: that's what I expect to see. Question guys, don't Tower 135 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: was talking about how he hates meetings. That's the one 136 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: thing we'll see. I didn't take a year off from football, 137 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: so um, I still I still was in meetings. I 138 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: will say this, these meetings are better than virtual meetings, 139 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: so um, I'll take I'll take these meetings. But um, 140 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: you guys know you guys don't like meetings either, so uh, 141 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: no person, nobody likes meetings. Especially we play football for 142 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: a living, so um. We like being on the field, 143 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: We like the active being. So I will say the 144 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: good thing is our meetings consist of walkthroughs. They consist 145 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: of being in different places, walking around seeing things. So um. 146 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: But I would say a lot of players tend to 147 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: agree with high Tower appreciate it.
