1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: I make sure I'm a muted. I think I am, Brian, 2 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: how are you doing? Um, Sunday Night's game, the secondary 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: really seemed to have a very solid performance, especially coming 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: down and supporting the run. What was your impressions of 5 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: how things did? And I think you might be a mute? 6 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:35,959 Speaker 1: Sorry my felt thank you got me? Yeah? Um? Thanks Tom? Uh. 7 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: I thought, you know, I thought the guys competed. I think, um, 8 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: we missed to many tackles. So I mean, obviously, look, 9 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: the it all needs to be better. Um. You know, 10 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: we obviously didn't do enough Sunday Night to to win. 11 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: So um, that's a run game, pass game, it all 12 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: all needs to improve. I'm gonna ask a light follow up. 13 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 1: Have you ever seen your brother make those faces before? 14 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,559 Speaker 1: I mean, you guys are probably computed a million times. 15 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,919 Speaker 1: I mean, is that unusual? Is that? Is that normal 16 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: Steve operation when he's got to Drayton? I want I 17 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't say it's normal norm Robert, but he's you know, 18 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: he's just I wouldn't rate too much into it. He's focused, 19 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: you know, um yeah, locked in probably wasn't even thinking 20 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: about what he's doing. It's just you know, but he um, 21 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: I thought he thought he did a great job, uh Sunday, 22 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: But I did. I did get a kick out of 23 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: some of the you know, some of the memes and stuff. 24 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: All right, thanks thanks to playing a one of them. 25 00:01:52,200 --> 00:02:00,559 Speaker 1: That thanks. Next question, Phil Perry, followed by Bob says, Hey, Brian, 26 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: how's it going? Hey Phil? Do you view guys like 27 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:10,279 Speaker 1: um Adrian Phillips and Kyle Dugger almost as as linebackers 28 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: and safety bodies? Just you know, watching the game back yesterday, 29 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: there was one play, was that Ronald Jones touchdown run 30 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: in the third quarter where they had a lot of 31 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: big bodies on the field and and you guys had 32 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: I think three safeties out there. But do you feel 33 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: like you can just use Phillips and Duggers as linebackers 34 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: almost in situations like that? I wouldn't say that I 35 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: think of them as linebackers, but I would say that 36 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: we you know, most of the time, you know, me 37 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: and Mike talk about the dbs as being one group, 38 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: and that is largely the truth. I would say, though, 39 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: that the safeties are more involved in the wrong game 40 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: than the corners just by necessity of being closer to 41 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: the closer to the formation most of the time. Now, 42 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: sometimes the corners are involved in that as well, you know, 43 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: when there's tight splits formations, and they have to be 44 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: very aware of it as well. And that's why we 45 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: talk about the run game as a group, you know, 46 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: so that we're all on the same page on that. 47 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: But I would say I don't see the line the 48 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: safeties as linebackers, but they need to understand what the 49 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: linebackers do, and they need to understand how they fit 50 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: into the run game because it happens quite often, you know, 51 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: and I don't think, you know, we'd be doing our 52 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: job coaching the safeties if you know, they weren't aware 53 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: of how they fit into the run game and how 54 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: you know they can be most effective play to play, 55 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: which you know, there's plenty of runs out there. So 56 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: to answer your question, I don't see him exactly the 57 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: same as the linebacker, but they they need to understand 58 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: how to you know, how to be a part of 59 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: the run game most effectively. God, thanks Brat are you 60 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: our next question? Bob so Skifa whatever? Are thank you? 61 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: Stacy morning Brian, more about Brian. Sometimes you guys face 62 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: you know, ju jumbo packages and extra tackle out there eligible, 63 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: a couple of tight ends in this game against Houston, 64 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: maybe you're gonna face a lot of three tight ends 65 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: out there. It seems like they'd like to use a 66 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: thirteen personnel. What are the factors that, you know go 67 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: into how you defend those formations in particular, you know, 68 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: when you have three guys that are probably more apt 69 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: to be pass catchers, like three tight ends as opposed 70 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: to you know, that extra tackle who's out there, I'd say, 71 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: you know, you always have to be aware of the eligibles, 72 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: regardless of who they are exactly. Um, you know, that's 73 00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: just sound defense, you know. U we got scored on 74 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: a tackle eligible play against Buffalo whenever that was last year, 75 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: the year before or something. So um, you know, you 76 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: always have to be aware of the eligibles, um, you know. 77 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: But however you match it up like safeties, line actors, whatever. 78 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: I'd say, that's week to week where um, we see 79 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: what they do at a certain personnel groups and try 80 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: to defend it the best we can, you know, week 81 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: to week and see how it fits into the rest 82 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: of our plant. You know, so it varies. I would 83 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: say expection of them those armful by any part Hey, Brian, 84 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: how you doing. How's it going. It's going well. Thanks, 85 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: So I wanted to ask you, um, if you could 86 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: just kind of explain the process of you know, Miles 87 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: is on the practice squad um, but he a huge 88 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: role in the game on Sunday night. So when you 89 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: guys kind of make the decision that he's going to 90 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: play such a featured role, how does that kind of 91 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: go to then take him off his practice squad responsibilities, 92 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: maybe scout team or whatever it ends up being, to 93 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: putting him in the game plan and putting him in 94 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: the defense. I would say, you know, that situation illustrates 95 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: how hard it can be, how hard of a role 96 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: it is for practice squad guys at times where they, 97 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: you know, are asked to do a lot of things 98 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: during the week related to giving looks for the other 99 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: team and stuff, but they're also asked to keep up 100 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: with our with our defense. And you know, really, once 101 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: we get into the regular season, that's you know, being 102 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: up to date on our plan for the week. Regardless 103 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,679 Speaker 1: of what their role is, you know, and actice or 104 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: you know what they anticipate their role is going to 105 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: be in the game, because the truth is, during the 106 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: week they don't know. You know, none of us know 107 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: exactly how it's all gonna play out. You know, someone 108 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: could go home and get hurt, you know, buy some 109 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: freak accident or something, and then they have to be 110 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: ready to go. So I think it just I think 111 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: that situation with Miles, And I'm not saying that you 112 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,559 Speaker 1: know that that's what happened, that there was some random 113 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: accent or whatever. I'm just saying that, you know, he 114 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: was able to go because he was keeping himself up 115 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: to date on what he did is a defense and 116 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: he works really hard at you know, just everything, whether 117 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: it's his play on the field, working on getting better, 118 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: whether it's his you know, mental working on studying our 119 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: stuff or studying the opponent. You know, he he's very 120 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: dead kid on that stuff and it pays off, and 121 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: it made the transition for him up to the game 122 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: seamless because he's been in tune with what we're doing. 123 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: And that's the thing I really respects about those those 124 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: guys that are in that role is that they have 125 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: to sacrifice a lot for the team in giving looks 126 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: for the opponent, but they also have to keep up 127 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: to date with what we're doing, which is, which is 128 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: a tough position. Thanks Brian. Thanks next Christian Andy Hart 129 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: probably Rand Hey, Brian, Um, I know this probably doesn't 130 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 1: fall into your job description necessarily, but you're the defensive 131 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: coach we're talking to this week. We've seen some substitution 132 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: issues the last couple of weeks. Ten guys on the field, 133 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: twelve guys on the fields, wondering you know what the 134 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: is there a common thread with those what the focus 135 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: is on cleaning that up? How you guys go about 136 00:08:51,920 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: cleaning that up. Yeah, it's just something that's unacceptable obviously, 137 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: and you know, there's not much to say about it. 138 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: I think we all know that it's then it's unacceptable 139 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: and there's no excuses for it to happen, and we 140 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: all need to know. No are you know, who needs 141 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: to be on the field, regardless of the group or 142 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, in situation or whatever. That's something that we Yeah, 143 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: everyone expects us from one hundred percent of the plays 144 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: and if it's on ninety nine percent of the plays, 145 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: and that's unacceptable. So we just need to we need 146 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: to get it right. Last question to Quarteringo. Yeah, Hey, Brian, um, 147 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: I know you guys want to move past all the 148 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: Brady stuff. But I do have one more. You told 149 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: that really cool story last week about when you were 150 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: a kid playing catch with Brady. Did you get a 151 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: chance to see and talk with him at all Sunday 152 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: and just sort of your your final it's about what 153 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: it was like going up against him after spending all 154 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: those years with him. I uh, I didn't get a 155 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 1: chance to talk to him. I saw him brief food 156 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: pre game. He just you know, we just kind of 157 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: said high across the field. But you know, it was 158 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: it was cool to see him in person before the game, 159 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: just you know, just having not seeing him in a 160 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: long time. Obviously relative to seeing him every day for 161 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: twenty years or whatever. Um, but yeah, it was you know, 162 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: once the game, even in the pre game was you know, 163 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: we were both everyone's focused on, you know, winning the game, 164 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: and then obviously once the game starts then it's it's certainly, um, 165 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: you don't really think about mastreas trying to win the game. 166 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you, Brian, Thanks everyone. Josh McDaniel. Screen 167 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: next
