1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 1: Coach, your thirteen personnel packages last week and especially in 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: the second half of work pretty well against Seattle. Can 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: you talk about if you don't mind the blocking of 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: your tight ends and maybe in particular Evan England, a 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: guy who's been much aligned for his blocking. You know, 6 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: we like to use different personnel groups, and uh, you know, 7 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: week to week, you know, we might use one personnel 8 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: group more than another. Thirteen has been a pretty good 9 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: one for us all year long, both running it and 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: throwing it. And it really probably has a lot to 11 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: do with how much confidence we have in those tight ends. 12 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: You talk about Evan, you talking about Kaden and Levine. 13 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 1: Those guys are really good football players. They're good blockers 14 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: when we throw to them in the passing game, typically 15 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: they come through with us and you're get in some 16 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: different formations. Uh, you know, with that big personnel group 17 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: then cause some problems for the defense on the game 18 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,319 Speaker 1: the other day, it was about running the football and uh, 19 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: we tried to attack them a few different ways from 20 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: those big personnel groups. It's one thing to try to 21 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: put a player or a unit in a into a 22 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: position where you can have some success. It's a whole 23 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: another thing. To go block those guys like those guys did, 24 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: and you know, really throughout the ball game, I thought 25 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: they did a really good job cap from the edge 26 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: for us coming off the ball, hitting him in the mouth, 27 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: and then sustaining those drives, those blocks that allowed us 28 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: to drive the ball as well as we did running it. 29 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,559 Speaker 1: So they did a really good job in the ball game. 30 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: Really believe in those guys. And hey, coach, I wanted 31 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: to ask you kind of a follow up on on 32 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 1: what Chris asked you. You know, watching the power football 33 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: that that you guys played in the second half on 34 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: Sunday is kind of fun. Um. What does it mean 35 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: to an offense and to a team, you know, when 36 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: you can line up that way in those big packages, 37 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: in those power packages and more or less just kind 38 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: of run the ball down a team's throat. Well, it's 39 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: a challenge to run the ball in the NFL. It 40 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: really is from any personnel grouping, you know, defense to 41 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: do such a good job from a scheme standpoint, and 42 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: you know, from a talent standpoint stop in the run. 43 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: And so it's the challenge for us. It's we believe in. 44 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: We believe in it very strong and to be balanced 45 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: and attack different ways. We've run the ball a lot 46 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: better here the last six or seven weeks, and I 47 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: think that's helped our team. It's helped our offense. You know, 48 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: the residual effect to your past protection in your passing game, 49 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: I think can be a positive one. And then really 50 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: throughout the team as well. You know, it's still in 51 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: that mentality of toughness. Time of possession is a big 52 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 1: part of it. So you're always trying to do whatever 53 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: you can do to help the team win, and I 54 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: think run on the football liser to do that. Kevin, 55 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: you talked about the running game, but one of the 56 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: things I've noticed is when you've run that well, generally 57 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: opens it up for the pasting game. And I was 58 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: wondering is that to come, I mean, because I haven't 59 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: seen that many deep passes so far. Yeah, I thought 60 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: we had some good opportunities in the second half. We 61 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: didn't throw it a lot, but but I do think 62 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: running the ball created some good opportunities for us down 63 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: in the red zone, the touchdown past the cold through 64 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: to Alfred, and I think it was a result of 65 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: them really trying to defend the run. Some of the 66 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: other play action stuff we used throughout the game. I 67 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: thought really was a result of them committing people to 68 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage to defend the run. So it 69 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: does work together, and and there could be different kind 70 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: of throws you can make, you know, awful play action. 71 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: Sometimes it shots down the field like you suggested. Seattle 72 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: typically plays way out of there with their outside guys. 73 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: That's that's kind of the DNA of their defense. If 74 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: you can picture Richard Sherman and those guys through the 75 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: years playing high and deep on long throws. They've done 76 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 1: a great job of that. So you have to beat 77 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: them more with some intermediate stuff, and we're able to 78 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: do that a couple of times in the game. But 79 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: really what we tried to do in that game is 80 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: to run the football and run it effectively. And as 81 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: that game more on, we did a good job of that. 82 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: Thank you. All right, Hey, Jason, how are you? I'm 83 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: doing great? How are you doing? I'm doing well? Thank you. 84 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: Jason was curious about the run game, just to follow 85 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: up on something. Do you mix and match your offensive 86 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: line personnel groupings according to running back these days this 87 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: don't allow you to do that, and is there any 88 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: benefit to doing that mix the the offensive lineman regarding 89 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: what I'm sorry, running back, whichever running back you're looking 90 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: to that you have in there. So if you have 91 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: Alfred in there, you have one set that you look 92 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: for if versus Wayne versus Deon. It's a really good question, 93 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: but we actually don't really do that, you know, we 94 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: we try to rotate the running backs around. Obviously, Wayne 95 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: has gotten the bulk of the work, but Alfred has 96 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: done a really good job coming in and his role 97 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: assdon uh. You know, those guys are playing some different 98 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: roles for us. You know, Wayne has done a really 99 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: good job kind of carrying the load, and those other 100 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: guys have been great complimentary players, you know, to give 101 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: him a blow. But also you know, in different situations 102 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: we've used them. In regards to how that pairs up 103 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: with the offensive line rotation, we haven't necessarily tied that together. 104 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: You know. Sometimes you'll play guys by series how many 105 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: players they get, and sometimes those the A lineman and 106 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: the and the H and the running back substitution will 107 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: overlap some way, but there's no defined plan to do that. 108 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: Thank you. Let's take three more Leonard, Hey, Jason, So 109 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: in the third quarter, for two straight drives. You guys 110 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: pound the ball on the ground with the same offensive 111 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: line group and you score on both drives. You guys 112 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: come out early fourth quarter with a different offensive line 113 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: and go three and out. I'm curious. I know you 114 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: guys are rotating these offensive linemen to develop them and 115 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: get them time. But whose call is it to continue 116 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: rotating in a situation where a group looks like it's 117 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: dominating the game? Are you? Are you making that call? 118 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 1: Is Joe Judge making that call? Is Dave line coach 119 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: making that call? Like? How does that decision happen? And 120 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: do you agree with moving guys out of there if 121 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: they're kicking the other team's But yeah, you know, I 122 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: think with any of the personnel stuff, it's all a 123 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: collaborative effort. Obviously, Joe has the final say on all 124 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: the personnel stuff. Who's on our team, who plays and 125 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: how much they play, you know, But we have good 126 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: conversations throughout the week as to what the plan is 127 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: going to be, what the plan is gonna be going 128 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: into the ball game, and what it's gonna be, you know, 129 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: throughout the game. And that that applies to the offensive line, 130 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: it applies to the tight ends, the receivers, the backs, 131 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: in some cases the quarterback. So we try to have 132 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: a plan and we just if we need to as 133 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: the game goes on. I do think it's helped us. 134 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: And we've got a lot of young players on the 135 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: offensive line getting a lot of valuable snaps. I think 136 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: that's helped their growth and development. Jordan, Hey, Jason, how 137 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: you doing. I'm wondering how much do you think you're running? 138 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: Did you shift your running game? Obviously you had sequence 139 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: early it seemed like you were running more outside zone, 140 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: and then that's kind of moved along here you realize, Okay, 141 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna run a lot more gap, a lot more 142 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: power kind of stuff. Yeah, you know, I think the 143 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: biggest thing we've tried to do is is again you 144 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: try to attack different ways. It starts with running pass 145 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: and then you're trying to do a variety of things 146 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: within each of those. You want to be able to 147 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: run the ball different ways in this league, and uh, 148 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, the defenses are too good, the coordinators are 149 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: too good. On the other side, you can't just do 150 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: one thing. Nobody's that dominant, So we try to have 151 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: some variety. You know, you mentioned the zone game. We've 152 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: done some of that, We've done gap stuff. You know, 153 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: you try to get perimeter and misdirection game going in 154 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: your running games. So all that stuff is important. And 155 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: again it's to due to the respect we have for 156 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: the guys on the other side, the players and the coaches. 157 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: So is it more based on what you're seeing from 158 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: the team or did you have to shift more? You 159 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: think because of the personnel you you kind of had 160 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: a change to it. I think it's probably always a combination. Uh. 161 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,679 Speaker 1: You know, the personnel you have is where it starts, 162 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: there's no question about that. Uh. You know, you try 163 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: to play to your player's strengths. You try to limit 164 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: their weaknesses if you will, and so you're always trying 165 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: to define what those things are. But we feel like 166 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: we have a capable group on offense who can do 167 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: different things in the running game, and again we try 168 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: to attack different ways. Last one here could Jason has 169 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: coming great? How are you doing good? Good? Hey? I'm 170 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: curious how close is Daniel in your opinion, to getting 171 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: back on the field and if he can't go? Um, 172 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: do you have two separate game plans? A cult game 173 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: plan and Daniel Jones game plan or is it just 174 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: going in business as usual. You know, it's a good question. 175 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: You know, we're in the midst of those discussions, and 176 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, we had kind of a job through type 177 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: practice yesterday and Daniel worked out afterwards and he looked good, 178 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: He looked good moving around. Um, you know, we just 179 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: have to continue to evaluate his situation as the week 180 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: goes on, you know, not unlike any other position you have. 181 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: So hopefully he can do some more work in practice 182 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: today and they will make our assessment afterwards. And you know, 183 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: we feel like Colt is capable of doing whatever we 184 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: we ask our quarterbacks to do. So I don't think 185 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: the game plan changes dramatically from a mental standpoint or 186 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: a physical standpoint. Obviously, you customize things again, you try 187 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: to play to your player's strengths and limit their weaknesses. 188 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: But in terms of capability, you know, we feel like 189 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: each of those guys are capable to do whatever we 190 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: ask them to do. You might customize it a little 191 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 1: bit for each of them to do what they do best.
