1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:00,560
Speaker 1: Games.

2
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 2: Just talking about wanting to get Daniel into this week's

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 2: preseason game.

4
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: What do you what are you looking from him?

5
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 2: Obviously he's coming off a big injury, but is it

6
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 2: is it more just getting him experience, you know, back

7
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: in games, or is it looking for a specific thing

8
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 2: you know, in regards to performance.

9
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the plan.

10
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 3: I think, just getting Daniel in the mix with all

11
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 3: living guys and the groupings and kind of that first

12
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 3: group in there, just to kind of get a feel

13
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 3: for everybody, whether it's the old line, the receivers, and

14
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 3: just continue to work together. You know, we've worked well

15
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 3: all camp and so this is just another opportunity in

16
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 3: the preseason to get it kind of when lot with

17
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 3: live bullets and what.

18
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 4: As a formal quarterback, what are the challenges to a

19
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 4: guy getting back in there in a real game for

20
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 4: the first time in the while?

21
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Is it just speed?

22
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 4: Is it intensity?

23
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: Is it the first hit?

24
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 4: You know?

25
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: The vision? What is it? Well?

26
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 3: I mean DJ specifically, he's played a lot of football.

27
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 3: You know, he's he's he's a veteran guy. So you know,

28
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 3: it's nothing about that part of it. It's more just

29
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 3: you know, just a group offense kind of getting together

30
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 3: and working together, communicating all the things that we've been

31
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 3: stressing all off season.

32
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 5: What have you seen from him out here? I mean

33
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 5: to us, you know, he looks good, but you know

34
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 5: more about it. I mean, what is your impression of

35
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 5: what you've seen he's doing. He's doing a great job.

36
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 5: He's doing a great job each day, he's just getting

37
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 5: a little bit better. I think those are you know,

38
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 5: those are things that we've talked about, you know, whether

39
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 5: it's his footwork, whether it's his progression, whether it's just

40
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 5: communicating with the old line and kind of getting that

41
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 5: feedback as well. So you know, he's part of it.

42
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 5: He's you know, he's one eleventh of that group, but

43
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 5: he's a big part of that. And I think he's

44
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:32,960
Speaker 5: doing a really nice job.

45
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: The accuracy is something my impression early in camp maybe

46
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: you see more inaccurate threats from.

47
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: Him than than usual.

48
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: Is that something maybe you have to you know, get

49
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: confidence in your leg or you're like, you know, you're

50
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 2: work working on things there, or is that just you

51
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: know early in camp that that kind of happens.

52
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 3: I don't I don't have the exact numbers of what

53
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 3: the beginning camp was versus the end of camp. But

54
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 3: I think it's just a lot of you know, getting

55
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 3: used to the timing of the guys that are on

56
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 3: the field and you're tying in your feet, tying in

57
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 3: the protection.

58
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: So it's you know, there's a lot.

59
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 3: Of things that kind of go into it, and from

60
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 3: a fundamental standpoint, whether it's receiver route depth, you know,

61
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 3: the area of the space in the field where they

62
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 3: got to attack, whether it's the offensive line, whether if

63
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 3: there's push or there's not push, it's the footwork of

64
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 3: the quarterback, what type of drop you take in three

65
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 3: step drop, a quick three, a big three, you know,

66
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: like all those things gott to tie in and match

67
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 3: up for a past to be effective. Right, So we

68
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 3: stress it, we look at it, we evaluate it, We

69
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: talk about those things in depth, and whatever we can

70
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 3: improve on those things, we try to enact on it,

71
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 3: and then we work on it in an individual in

72
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 3: a group setting, and then in a team setting. So

73
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 3: it's kind of a NonStop process to get to get

74
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 3: those type of plays off and that those are things

75
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 3: that we talk about on every single play, whether it's

76
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 3: a run, pass, play, action screen, like all those details

77
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,399
Speaker 3: are just super important.

78
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: Mike. You've seen me working Theil Johnson in Walmore.

79
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 4: Talk about his progress and how he's starting to grasp.

80
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: What you're looking to do.

81
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, the deals are rookie and he's he's right on

82
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 3: schedule with you know, where he's at in his development.

83
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 3: He was one of those guys that kind of start

84
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: a little bit later in training camp, just getting back

85
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 3: from the injury. But he's doing a really nice job.

86
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 3: I'm happy. I'm you know, excited about him. Going to

87
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 3: keep him, you know, inserting him into the offense and

88
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: you know, continue to find ways to get him involved.

89
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 3: He knows a lot of ballas and hearing what strides

90
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 3: would you like Belger to make year three. So Belly

91
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: is one of those kind of guys that kind of

92
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 3: does it all in the past game, in the run game.

93
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 3: He's continuing develop and grow. He's getting stronger because you

94
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 3: saw that leap from year one to year two, and

95
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: you can see his confidence in year three of just

96
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 3: being in the same system for three years. So I

97
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 3: mean that's gonna pay dividends for him. And again, I'm

98
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 3: excited about him because he's one of those guys that's

99
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 3: you know, I see you know, I visualize as a

100
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 3: leader of that group. So whether he's on the field,

101
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: he's off the field, he's one of those great teammates

102
00:03:58,480 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: that you can rely on.

103
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 4: Does heard praying look like he's a different football player

104
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 4: than a year ago?

105
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: He does. He does.

106
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 3: He as a young players, a rookie, you're trying to

107
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: find your way and this is the kind of the

108
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 3: process that a lot of young players go through, and

109
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 3: some are faster than others. But Eric's having a good camp.

110
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 3: He's certainly he's certainly really confident right now and in

111
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 3: his running, his pass pro his routes, and that wasn't

112
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 3: that was an aspect of his game that we saw

113
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 3: at Oklahoma, you know, when.

114
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: We drafted him.

115
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 3: So, you know, he's just continued to grow and continue

116
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 3: to develop, and he's a he's a bright young player

117
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 3: that we're excited about.

118
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: You were he in the city.

119
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 5: You obviously had like a number one receiver, game breaking

120
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 5: tech player.

121
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: What does that do for an offense and how does

122
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 2: that challenge depends when you have a guy like that.

123
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, anytime, anytime you can get those matchups, That's what

124
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 3: this league's about, is getting them right. Matchups, you know,

125
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 3: one of your better players and one of their lesser players.

126
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: So wherever you can formate that and really the position

127
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 3: you're talking about receiver, it could be a tight end,

128
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 3: it could be a running back, it could be a

129
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 3: formation that creates those miss So that's what this game

130
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: is about. His league's about. So it's a you know,

131
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 3: personnel league, and and then as coaches, you look at

132
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 3: those players and you put them in the spots, and

133
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 3: then you create the seams and you get creative with

134
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: how you can get those guys in football.

135
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 2: I'm intrigued to you to see Eliku possibly you know,

136
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: get an opportunity to go up against a guy like

137
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,559
Speaker 2: saus Gardner next week to kind of, you know, given

138
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 2: that experience, or see how he kind of stacks up

139
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 2: in that regard.

140
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's that's kind of a little bit

141
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 3: further in the future here. But we're excited about you know, Houston,

142
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 3: they got a talented group. Stingley's one of those premier

143
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: corners that we gotta we gotta look at, and I

144
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 3: think it'll be a good matchup all round.

145
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: They're a really good defense with a lot of production.

146
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: They used to be others worth growing there.

147
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 4: It was hard for rookie wide receivers to come in

148
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 4: and make a big impact. You know, the change from

149
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 4: college to the NFL. Not necessarily about Molik now, but

150
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 4: in general, do you think it is easier for these

151
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 4: young guys to make the transition?

152
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 3: And if so, wise I don't know if I would

153
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: say it's easier, I would just say each each player

154
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 3: has it's kind of a its own way of growing

155
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 3: within that within that team, within that system, because there's

156
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 3: a lot of factors that go into it. And you know,

157
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 3: I really believe in our development plan with with Daves,

158
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 3: myself and the receiver group, coach Grow and Kaid. Those

159
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 3: guys do a great job of really kind of breaking

160
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 3: it down for the young players to make sure they

161
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 3: understand their rules, their assignments and they can go.

162
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: And execute them.

163
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 3: That's probably as important as anything. When you look at

164
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 3: each team and each young players, you gotta see how

165
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 3: that developed development plan is built up.

166
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 6: Might be attack the running back and the run game

167
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 6: differently around the league now you see different teams want to.

168
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: Take different approaches for you and what you guys have

169
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: now the advantages.

170
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 6: You look for a receiver can you look for those

171
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 6: advantages with different styles in a run game situation where

172
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 6: you have these guys who seemingly all bring something different

173
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 6: to the table.

174
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: As far as like a schemer per well the scheme

175
00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: and end player.

176
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 6: Just the idea of how matches up on a week

177
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 6: to week basis a lot different than maybe what you

178
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 6: had last year in terms of having that one player

179
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 6: who you know you knew was really going to be

180
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 6: the bellcap.

181
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

182
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 3: And I think as we've grown as an offense from

183
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 3: year one to year two, you know, in year one

184
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 3: we're we're kind of working through that with with with

185
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 3: the people we had on offense. Year two kind of similar, right,

186
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 3: and then we had to deal with some injuries. So

187
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: we've been able to kind of work through it as

188
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 3: a staff things that we really like and we can

189
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 3: get too quickly.

190
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: So going into year three.

191
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 3: We feel confident, you know, enough to continue to add

192
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 3: things the guy's plates as they're more familiar with the offense,

193
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 3: find things in the defense that we can get to

194
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: and understand a little bit more about our players on

195
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 3: what their strengths are and get to those things faster.

196
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 6: What are I don't know, how good your crystal ball was,

197
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 6: But how long will it take JMS and Evan to

198
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 6: ramp up to getting into the game.

199
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd probably lean on Dabs on the on the

200
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 3: actual timeline of that, But I know they're working their

201
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 3: tail off in the in the training room and they

202
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: want to be out.

203
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: There with running now being on that left side now

204
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: next to Andrew Thomas at least mores and that's the

205
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 2: way you guys are headed from an offensive standpoint. Does

206
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: that change or you know, make you lean one way

207
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: when you regard in regards to play cone code, those

208
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: might be our two best offensive linement or let's you know,

209
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: try to lean on them and run behind them more.

210
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,239
Speaker 2: How do you view that when that's that's a great question.

211
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to You definitely have to take that

212
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 3: into a kind of thing when you're building the planned

213
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 3: But if you if you want to be multiple, you

214
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 3: can't just do that every snap, you know, so you

215
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 3: think about it. You you certainly talk about what schemes

216
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 3: do our players handle the best, whether it's a double

217
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 3: team on the left side, whether it's a gap scheme

218
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 3: on the right side, for example, Like those are things

219
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 3: that we talk about a lot of and when if

220
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 3: you need to get to that in game, then we

221
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 3: then we can. You know, it's all about just understanding

222
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 3: our players strengths and weaknesses
