1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: How big is that to get shot back? Well, it's 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: always big when you get your players back. So, um, 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,040 Speaker 1: he's looking forward to getting on there and competing. It's 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: crazy to you that it will be game nine and 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: the first time you'll have Ingram, Shepherd, Barkley and taped together. 6 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: That's just the way it worked out. So we'll see, 7 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 1: we'll see how we do. Do you have to do 8 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,600 Speaker 1: anything with him to keep a closer eye on him 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: during the game. I mean with with the concussions and 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: the history and all know he'll be out there playing. 11 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 1: And it's the case for all players really, Um, you know, 12 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: if they they're exposed or something happens to him, then 13 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: we have people upstairs that see it. We try to 14 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: see it on the field a lot of times, you know, 15 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: players get banged around and you know, we'll just put 16 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: them out there and let me play. How to let 17 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: heard kind of assimilate this week in in rapid for him? 18 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: And how much does affect that he just saw Dallas 19 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago helpee You guys, well from a 20 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: from a matchup standpoint, that helps. Uh. The way that 21 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: he is himilated for us was he's used to playing 22 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: in a five on line defense. Um that Todd Bowles 23 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: drafted him to play in and then he did play 24 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: in for many years. So UM, I felt like he 25 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: jumped in and he probably got as fast to start 26 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: as anybody that you would bring in at that deadline. 27 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,279 Speaker 1: How much is having him there kind of helps somebody 28 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: like Dexter or b Jay or the guy's next on 29 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: them because now there's somebody else to come in that 30 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: attention from. Yeah, you know, everybody's got to block their 31 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: guys and everybody's got to defeat their blocks. But I 32 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: think what he brings to the room is here's a 33 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 1: very experienced guy that's been to a Pro Bowl that's 34 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: also very young, and so he's much like them, just 35 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: a couple of couple of years ahead of them. And 36 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, he's he's very accomplished, and he by all 37 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: rights you know or by you know, he's he's practiced 38 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: well and I anticipate he'll play well in the game. 39 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: And I think when you add a player like that 40 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: to any unit, it helps, it helps boost the guys. 41 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: Any decision on Sam Bill not yet, Nope, not yet, 42 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: and you know you don't have to do on Wednesday, 43 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: is their chance he'd be done. There would be possibility 44 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: more likely next week, just back to a winner. The 45 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: criticisms of him were, everybody who watches film and watches 46 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: the game, see how see how hard the guy works, 47 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: and he's always always seems to be in the cusp 48 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: of making impact plays. But the sacks weren't there? Is 49 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: that something? How do you measure that sack wise? Well, 50 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: I think, listen, you can pressure the quarterback and not 51 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: get the actual sack. And as I've already mentioned, when 52 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: I watched the game against Jacksonville, I saw him sacked 53 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: the quarterback, it just didn't go down as a sack. Um. So, 54 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, I think you can have an impact as 55 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: a rusher and have a big impact on the quarterback 56 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: if you get inside push and he's an interior defensive 57 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: lineman or that. Um. So, I think it's just the 58 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: people that crunch the numbers that that probably have issue 59 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: with him more than the people that coach the game 60 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: and watch the game. How disruptive is as their linebackers, 61 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: your vanderash and Smith, the way they can you know, 62 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: just really be all over the field, very disruptive because 63 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: they can run real well, you know, and that's that's 64 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, that's part of what their defense is all about, 65 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: is you know, getting off blocks quickly and then run 66 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: into the football and so that, you know, I think 67 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: all linebackers have to do that. Um, certainly, that's that's 68 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: part of the trademark of who they are as linebackers. 69 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: What do you think about the emotion that your brella 70 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: plays with it during the games and the way he's 71 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: able to harness it? Well, I don't know about harnessing it, 72 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: you know, I think I like it. Yeah, you know, 73 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: channel that's good. Um, you know, I think it's positive 74 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: emotion because I think he loves to play the game. 75 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: And that's what you want in a football player, a 76 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: guy that loves you see the same We see the 77 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: same thing out here on the practice field, is uh 78 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: is probably pretty evident on game day. Um, So that's 79 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: that's what you want. You want guys that love to 80 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: play the game. And I think that can be said 81 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: about him. How much more challenging is it to stop 82 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: uh Cooper when he's playing in the slot and maybe 83 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: double teaming him out there. He's a challenge whether he's 84 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: inside or outside. So, um, how we choose to cover him, 85 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: I mean that will reveal itself. But you know, I 86 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: think because of who he is as a player, and 87 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: they do use him inside and outside, we have to 88 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: have a plan for both. Does it make it more 89 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: difficult to double guys at as then No, Actually it's 90 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: easier to double guys in the slot because you can 91 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: do with two inside players. So I mean the whole 92 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: doubling concept. There's ways to do an inside guy in 93 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: and outside guy. So you mentioned earlier this week how 94 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: it seems like there's always rumors about Jack Rabbit and 95 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: here he is still here. Anything different from him on 96 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: the practice field, good or bad this week or same 97 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: old guy? No? And I saw the same guy leading 98 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: up to the the deadline to um again. I think 99 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: I commented on that earlier in the week. That's more 100 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: outside conversation and and we try not to make it 101 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: inside conversation and along the way. You know, I watched 102 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: the demeanor of all the players as they practice and work, 103 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: and I didn't see anything different in how he prepared 104 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: for this game. Difference their offense look like with Kellen 105 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: Moore calling the plays is the past? Uh, well, it 106 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,559 Speaker 1: was different initially, you know, I think now that they've 107 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: played half a season. You know, he's done a really 108 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: good job. You know, they've added some place to their 109 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: offense that they didn't run a year ago, to compliment 110 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: what they have as personnel in terms of the quarterback, 111 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 1: how they use the running back, how they choose to 112 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: throw it to the receivers um. And I think he's 113 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: done an excellent job of of running their offense.
