1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: We'll check joins us. We're gonna go right to questions. 2 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: We'll start with Andrew Callahan followed by my prease. Hey, 3 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: good morning, Bill. I wanted to ask you. I know 4 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: you mentioned the whole situation and last night as the 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: benefit of the pre played rotation at quarterback. Why was 6 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: the decision more complicated whence Mac was healthy to simply 7 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: play the better player for the whole game. Yeah? Well, again, 8 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: andrews a lot of things that went into that, So 9 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: you know, at this I don't really have the time 10 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,599 Speaker 1: to get into it here. It's more complicated than that. 11 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 1: But again, I'll just leave it as we did it. 12 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,919 Speaker 1: We felt was best for the team and the players involved, 13 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 1: and obviously it didn't work out. That was a decision. 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: What in your mind made it not work out, aside from, 15 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: you know, obviously the loss, which was a result of 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: many other players and coaches performances. Yeah, that's basically it. 17 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 1: M next Christian Mike Greece falled by Chris Ryan, Bill, 18 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: how did you feel Mac moved around? Um, looked all right? 19 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: And and if if as you move forward, if if 20 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: he's healthy, Bill, is he is it fair to say 21 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: if he's healthy he's the starter. Again, that's a hypothetical question, 22 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: So let's let's see you know where that is and 23 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: what that is next. Chris from Chris Ryan, followed by 24 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: Phil Perry, Morning Bill Um. Given the dynamics of how 25 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: everything happened last night with the fans obviously channing for 26 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: for Bailey and the way things happened with Mac, are 27 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: you concerned that last night could be problematic in terms 28 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: of his your development and confidence? I think Mac has 29 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: plenty of confidence. Just what were your feelings about obviously 30 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: worked hard to get back to Kobe mentioned you know 31 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 1: that the fan reaction was difficult to hear. What were 32 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: your thoughts on how the fans were obviously consistently chanting 33 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: for Bailey while Mac was trying to perform. Yeah, I 34 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: really can't control that, and I'm just trying to coach 35 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: the football team, and obviously I got a lot of 36 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: work to do there, so I'm gonna focus on that. Thanks, 37 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: Thanks Christian, Phil Perry followed by Michael They built, was 38 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 1: Mac Jones healthy enough to play the entire game last night? Yeah? 39 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: Well that that didn't happen. So that's another hypothetical question. 40 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: I'm just seriously mentioned he was one of the reasons 41 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: why he came out of the game. But he made 42 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: mention the fact that he felt pretty good last night 43 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: when we spoke to him. Right, Yeah, but that was 44 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: that wasn't seventy plays? Bill? Do you do you feel 45 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: like you need to address the quarterback situation with the team, 46 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: in your opinion, can impact other players if there is 47 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: some uncertainty yet that spot because it is a unique position. Yeah, 48 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: as I said up for the game, fellow, I think 49 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: we need to all do a better job coaching, playing, offense, defense, 50 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: special teams. We need to do a better job in 51 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: every area period. So everything, everything needs to improve based 52 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: on last night. Next question Michael Hurley, followed by in 53 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: your canton and Bill, I know it's kind of a vague, 54 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: larger question that could probably be answered in a short answer, 55 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: but just after fourteen ten taking the lead there, how 56 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: how would you say in your estimation, how did he 57 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: get away from you didn't play well enough or coach 58 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: well enough in any phase of the game have a 59 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: chance to win or deserve to win. Next crushian Er 60 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: calling him, follow by Nick Carmelling, But Billy known, you 61 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: just told Bill that it was a hypothetical question if 62 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: Mac was helping up to play the rest of the 63 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: game last night, But you also said to us last 64 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: night that Mac was not returned to play because the 65 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: score got out of pain. So it seems that to 66 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: your knowledge, in the second half of that game and afterward, 67 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: he was helping correct. Yeah, I didn't want to put 68 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: him in that situation, and so that was my decision. 69 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: Next Crushian Nick Camelli humble. They will. After the game, 70 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: matt As was discussed how the Mike Pennell hit on 71 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: David Andrews was unacceptable for the team. Did you get 72 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: a look at the play and have you gotten any 73 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: communication from the Bears after that play on David? Yeah, 74 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: I think Coachy reflows. Um, probably, I'm gonna put it well, 75 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: and so I don't have anything to add. I've been 76 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: ball fall. They built the plan last week to rotate 77 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks to get them both ready to play. Do 78 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: you think that's tenable moving forward or do you think 79 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: you just need to pick a guy and have him 80 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: get most of the reps during the week and kind 81 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: of have him note that he's the guy. Yeah, well, 82 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: we'll depend on what the situation was that that wasn't 83 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: the situation last week. Um, we'll see what it is 84 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: this week. I don't know what was it about Fields 85 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: last night that just made him so difficult to defend. Yeah, well, 86 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: he's an athletic guy, and you know we faced those 87 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: guys before. But obviously he did a better job of 88 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: playing against us and we did defending him. So you know, 89 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: give the various credit for all that they did last night, 90 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: and and we we obviously need to do better. So 91 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: combination of those two things we did. Two final questions, 92 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,679 Speaker 1: Phil Perry and Mike Priest. Oh, I know the score 93 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: became what it did um late later in the third quarter, 94 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: but you did have two drives to start the second half, 95 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: for it was a two possession game still, and I 96 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: know that the plan was to eventually bring back back. 97 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: Why why go with Bailey for those first couple second 98 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: half drives? It felt like that was the best decision 99 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: at that point in time, did it? I mean, you 100 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: guys had scored I think in your second last possession 101 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: in the in the first half. Did you know any 102 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: perceived momentum have anything to do with that decision? Yeah, 103 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. There are a number of factors, but 104 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: In the end, all theys trying to do is we 105 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: feel as best for the team. UM didn't work out 106 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: on the final score, but those decisions are always made 107 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: based on you know, on the team and and you 108 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: know to a degree the individual players situation whatever that 109 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: might happen to be. Final question my prias you know, 110 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: how did you view the weather conditions affecting the printing game? 111 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: If at all, Um, there's no wind that was missing. 112 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: I mean it's not like putting out a dome, but 113 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: certainly seeing worse last year in Buffalo. I mean, so 114 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: it's a National Football League play outdoors in New England 115 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: in October, November, December. It's gonna it's gonna be whatever 116 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: it is. And with with Jake specifically, what are you 117 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: seeing from his performance to this point? As I said, Mike, 118 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 1: we need to play better in all three phases of 119 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: the game special teams, offense, defense, UM, coach better and 120 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: play better and so every every player, every coach, every 121 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: unit falls under that. We all need to do a 122 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 1: better job. So that includes everybody, doesn't exclude anybody. Thank 123 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: your courage, Thanks ever again
