1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: At Hamstring, flot has a knee, JMS has a hand 2 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: that we're working through, DJ Davidson neck, and then Burns 3 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:14,079 Speaker 1: and Nubin they were both cleared, you know, but you 4 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: know they were clear during the game. Then run In, 5 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: you know, his wife went into labor, so you know, 6 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 1: thinking about him as well as he's going through that 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 1: process with him his wife. I think that's pretty much it. 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 2: Any concerned plot that it. 9 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: Can be as serious. Well well yeah, we'll see. I 10 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: haven't had a chance to meet with the doctors yet 11 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: and stuff, but yeah, they're looking at them right now. 12 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 2: What was it about the defense that was giving you 13 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 2: a passing attack. 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: Some challenges today? Say again, I'm sorry, What was it 15 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: about their defense that was so challenging to your passing 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 1: attack today? You know they did they didn't a job 17 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: of mixing up some coverages, some pressure packages, you know 18 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: in the attempts that we had which were limited, you know, 19 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: we had some cover zero alert, some tags built into it. 20 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: You know, just need an overall better execution there from 21 00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: the whole group. 22 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 2: I can seem to be very conservative game plan run 23 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: heavy game plan? Was that the way you wanted to 24 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: go into this game? 25 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: I wouldn't call running the ball conservative. I'd say, you know, 26 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: I think for us, we just wanted to try to 27 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: minimize some of that pressure package and let our run 28 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: game go. So we're mixing a couple of different personnel groupings, 29 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: you know, getting some three thirteen personnel, some twelve, a 30 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: little bit of eleven, but you know, trying to create 31 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: an advance for. 32 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 2: Us, just minimizing that pass rush and throwing four passes 33 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: in the first half. I mean, so what you know 34 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 2: was that, you know, it seemed like you never could 35 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 2: get into your passing game in any way, shape or form. 36 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean part of the part of the plan was, 37 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: you know, maybe you know, getting to the run game 38 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more. And that's you know, part of 39 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: the process we went through this week. You know, when 40 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: you have you know, corner that likes the pressure and 41 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: that's the strength of theirs, you know, you can you 42 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: can minimize it by a couple of things, whether it's screens, 43 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: whether it's max protecting it, or the run game which 44 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: helps neutralize that. 45 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: I think it was thirteen a passing yards and I 46 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: think guys had depending on how you want to characterize 47 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 2: about three or four drops as well, why were things 48 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: so out of. 49 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: Sync with that passing attack, because I belie you've. 50 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 2: Seen one that bad yet. 51 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll go I'll go back and look at exactly 52 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: on the field. It just felt like we had some 53 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: opportunities we missed them. So we'll look back at the 54 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: tape and see where we can get those things cleaned up. 55 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: Whether it's you know, protection, whether it's a scheme, whether 56 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: it's ball location or just drops. Like I think there's 57 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: a couple of different factors that could go into it, 58 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: So I don't want to be too early on what 59 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: the exact reason was without watching it again thoroughly. 60 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: He had two today. He's had quite a few this year, 61 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: eight or nine, depending on what the foot website you 62 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: want to go, which tracks me. 63 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: Why has that been an issue for him so far? 64 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: THEO is a guy that we really rely on, and 65 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: I think he's a guy that's made a lot of 66 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: big plays consistently throughout the course of these last call 67 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: at five to seven games, and is the guy that 68 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: will continue to put the ball in his hands and 69 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: give him opportunities down the field. So I know he's 70 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: had some drops in the past, like that's in the past, 71 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: I have a lot of confidence in THEO and him 72 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: be able to make big time plays for us. Like 73 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: what do you say, what do you say to Jackson 74 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: after these you know, least productive games and prow here. 75 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's it's for the whole group, you know, 76 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: the whole group. We got to continue to go back 77 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: look at this tape, be ultra critical and what that 78 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: looked like and the things that we can get better at, 79 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: you know, for any for any player, like what they 80 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: can do individually, what we can do as a unit, 81 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: and then holistically as a team. You know, where are 82 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: some spots where I can improve and I can be 83 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: an asset to the group. And whether that's you know, 84 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 1: being aggressive, being less aggressive, you know, toning the line 85 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: in terms of how the how we want to play 86 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: the game and the game management part of it. And 87 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: that's what I'll evaluate and be hypercritical on myself about Mike. 88 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 2: What did you see on a thirty seventeen a big 89 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 2: play to Justin Jefferson kept the sticks move for them. 90 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I was bouncer. I didn't see that. 91 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: When I was bouncer, I was talking to the offense. 92 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: I saw, I saw like the replay, but I don't 93 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: know exactly what happened on the on the play. 94 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 2: And generally, Mike the defense give a lot of third 95 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: and long chunk plays and you know, how would you 96 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: evaluate that? What did you see that was? 97 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: Again like some you know, during those times sometimes I'm 98 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: like getting ready, like thinking, you know, if we get 99 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: the ball back, trying to get the off talking to 100 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: the offense, summer line on some of the eyes upstairs. 101 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: So I'll go back and look at it. You know, 102 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: obviously we don't want to give up those big, those 103 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: big third downs. It might be something as simple as 104 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: just the fundamentals of just getting the guyed down tackling them. 105 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: I know on a couple of them, we had some 106 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: opportunities to tackle them. Sure the sticks didn't do it, 107 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: but you know that we'll we'll look at it, we'll 108 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: focus on it and make that a point of emphasis 109 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: for this week of practice. You mentioned that that takes something, 110 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: the coverage through things that you that you weren't expecting. 111 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: You have to adjust to them. No, I actually felt 112 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: great about the plan and what we know what we 113 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: were expecting there. Obviously, sometimes the down and distance, you know, 114 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: we talked about this earlier, get back on track in 115 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: the early part of the down you know, second and longs, 116 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: those type of things. We wanted to stay out of 117 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: those because we knew what elements could show up. But 118 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: I felt really clean about the plan and clean about it. 119 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: You know, we just got to look look back at 120 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: and see where are the things we could have done 121 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: better in that particular area. 122 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 2: How do you think Jackson handled the pressure? Looked like 123 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 2: he maybe had a couple of opportunities to maybe throw 124 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 2: the bowl away. 125 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean jack Yes, I think Jackson, I 126 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: thought overall with the plan. I think he understood the plan, 127 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: and I think at the line of scrimmage he was 128 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: doing a good job of seeing it and being decisive 129 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: of what he wanted to do. I think as he 130 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: learns and he sees more of these ability to get 131 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: the ball so touch faster, you know, use some of 132 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: those sites, keep his mind clear on it and not 133 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: you know, you know, not put himself in a bad 134 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: spot because I thought, I thought he had some opportunities downfield. Sometimes, 135 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: you know, whether it's a popper or someone gets into 136 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: that window, you got to hold it an extra tick longer. 137 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: So that's part of the growth process with it. But 138 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: I thought Jackson was seeing it clearly, and certainly the 139 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: conversations we have on the sideline, you know, he felt 140 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: good about the plan as well. So it's it's but 141 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: it's not just one guy, like, everyone's got to see 142 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: it the same way, and we got to go out 143 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: there and execute better. On the opening kickoff wall out 144 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: of bounds? 145 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: Was it the win? 146 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: What was the explanation as to while the ball went 147 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: out of bounds? Yeah, I think he just I think 148 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: he just hooked it a little bit to the right. 149 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 2: You passed up a fairly short field goal for a series, Yeah, 150 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: why you do that? Yeah? 151 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: Ilays wanted to stay aggressive. I knew I want to 152 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: stay aggressive in the early part of the game, and 153 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: we had an opportunity. It was kind of right there, 154 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 1: and I was talking with our analytics guys and the 155 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: game management guys, and it's right there, it's probably a 156 00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: go for, and so I wanted to put it in 157 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: our offenses hands early in the game. Especially, you never 158 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: know how the game is gonna, you know, declare and 159 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: be at the end of it. So we wanted to 160 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: stay aggressive early in the game and if we had 161 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: an opportunity and that and that down and distance. We 162 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: were gonna go, Sarah talk to abdul head all after 163 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: the off side and nick any touchdowns. No, I have 164 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: that chance to talk to him. I know he's he's 165 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: you know, he's beating himself up about it. You know, 166 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: it's tough. He's trying to get a jump on the 167 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: football a little bit, you know, a little bit too far. 168 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: You know. Unfortunate, really unfortunate play just overall because it 169 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: takes away points, takes aways to huge play, you know. 170 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: But the defense, you know, they battled back from that, 171 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: from that, from that and ended up getting another one.
