1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: What have you seen from Randy so far? Uh, Randy's 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: been Randy. He's done a good job. You know, Randy's 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: a veteran kicker, he's been around for a long time. 4 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: He's playing a lot of games and he's been a pro. 5 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: You know, he's coming out. He's done a good job 6 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: and you know we're just working through the process of 7 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: the of the whole process, the new mechanics of everything. 8 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 2: So it's been good. 9 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: Ka is very very very talented, very young talented kicker. 10 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: You know, CA's working through some things with uh with 11 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: this swing, but he's he's getting better. He has a 12 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: very strong leg, very talented and uh, he has a 13 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 1: lot offside for sure. 14 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 3: I guess how is that gonna work again this week? 15 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, same same as last week. They're gonna kick again. 16 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: They'll kick again today, they'll kick tomorrow and uh, you know, 17 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: we'll make a decision this weekend. 18 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 4: When you say working through things, what would it take 19 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 4: for you to be confident and him being ready for games? 20 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 4: And like this is is it a technique? I think 21 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 4: you said last week it's so it's. 22 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: Just something that he's working through. It's it's it's some 23 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: technical stuff. But again, I mean it's it's one of 24 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,639 Speaker 1: those deals where he's a young kicker in this league 25 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 1: and young these young kickers all go through the same process, 26 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: you know, they all trying to figure out who they 27 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: are different stadiums. You know, Kate was at LSU. I 28 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 1: coached at LSU for three years and there's not a 29 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: lot of win down there, and then SEC you don't 30 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,639 Speaker 1: see the same type of wind patterns and the weather 31 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: that you see up here. So he made some adjustments 32 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: to in Cleveland. I think now he's trying to work 33 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: back through some things. 34 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 4: But he's getting better and had great things. 35 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: Do you have to make it? Do you have to 36 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 2: make a more permanent decision on this coming up after 37 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: three weeks right through? 38 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, well we'll figure it out. 39 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 4: How close do you think you are on kick returns 40 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 4: to breaking one? It seems like you've had some opportunities. 41 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 4: It's getting getting closer. 42 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: I was telling the guys to days, like, you know, 43 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: we're getting better and better on that unit. You know, 44 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: Paris has been a big help to us coming back there. 45 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: You know, obviously he provides a lot of speed and uh, 46 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: he's a good strong runner, and we're getting closer and closer. 47 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: So you know, well, Joey Slide has forty four touchbacks 48 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: on forty four kickoffs, So I don't know how many 49 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: opportunities will get this week, but h but we're getting closer, right, What. 50 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 2: Do you think of that? 51 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 4: Like, you know, obviously there's the new rules that we 52 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 4: just heading towards that or do you think you've seen 53 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 4: is it just team by team or do you think it's. 54 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: Philosophic trend there? Yeah, it's philosophical. You look at you 55 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 1: look at like a team like like Washington for example, 56 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: they kick everything out and then you look at teams 57 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: like Detroit, New England some of these other teams and 58 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: they pop everything up, you know, trying to force the kick. 59 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: So it's all philosophical, you know, from organizational organization in 60 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: game by game, where do you stand? I like to 61 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: do both. It's situational. You know, it depends on who 62 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: they have and who we're going obviously, who we're going against, 63 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: and you know how we feel like we match up 64 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: against them. So I mean it's again it's week to week. 65 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: Is different, Tom, It's a bigger picture. 66 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 3: You know. After last season, it certainly felt like things 67 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 3: were on a considerable upswing here. Is there surprise in 68 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: what you've seen in terms of the way this season 69 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 3: has and is developing. 70 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: You know, each each year is a new year, you know, 71 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: and it's each team's a new team. There's totally different circumstances, 72 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: the schedules different, you know what I mean, It's just different. 73 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, when you when you have some 74 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: of the things that's happened to us early in the season, 75 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: you know, it's just it's unfortunate, but it is what 76 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: it is, and you just try and make do with 77 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: what you got. You go from week to week. You 78 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: try and get better as a group and as a 79 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: team in jail, and try and make plays when you 80 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: need to. But you know, sometimes that's you know, that's 81 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: the game, you know, and it's it's tough at times. 82 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: The last time you played Washington, you had trouble handling 83 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: waste punts. Was that the wind that day or is 84 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: that puts It's it's two things. 85 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: He's a lefty power punter and it was very windy 86 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: that day. It was gusting a lot, probably any maybe 87 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: thirty five mile hour gusts, So it was it was 88 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: it was a funny day in the middle Lands. 89 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 4: But uh, I. 90 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: Think we could have not similar, but somewhat similar. Supposed 91 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: to be twenty something on our winds on Sunday. So 92 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, that's just that's part of being in the Northeast, 93 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, playing football outside. 94 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: Were some of your punt protections a little too close 95 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: for comfort? Or is is a near miss just f 96 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 2: just a miss. 97 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: Schematically what we do, it's a it's a little different, 98 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, what we've been doing, and there are some 99 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: things that we can do to make sure that doesn't happen. 100 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: But uh, you know, we're working through that stuff. And 101 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: I think some of those styles of punts are playing. 102 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: The Jamie strength. 103 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 2: I think this white's having a pretty good season so far. 104 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: So we're just gonna keep mixing that up, going from 105 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: our regular stuff to rugby stuff, I guess. 106 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: But the risk of that is that's it's like an 107 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 2: extra step or two. 108 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: Right right, Actually he gets the ball out quicker, Yeah, 109 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: it's it's it's really amazing because his muscle, his rugby 110 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: muscle memory just kicks in and as soon as he 111 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: moves sideways, I mean he can just he's been kicking 112 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: the ball since he was that big running around with 113 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: it kicking out of his hand. So uh, it's it's 114 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: a little quicker. 115 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 2: Thanks you, Mark any learning a teaching tape from the 116 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: Buffalo situation there with the twelve men, and how do 117 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 2: you handle the fire drill defense? You keep your defense 118 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: on the field. 119 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: We go defense stay and we worked that all the 120 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: time out here. We'll do it, you know, pre practice 121 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: probably twice a week. But it's you know, it's those 122 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: situations are are things have to be drilled, and you know, 123 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: when time comes, you just gotta you know, you got 124 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: to react accordingly. Sometimes people kind of panic in certain situations.
