1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Thanks, Stacey DeMarcus. One thing we talked about with Gerard 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: last night after the game, he mentioned the inability to 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: keep the quarterback in the pocket second week in a row. 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 2: Wanted to ask you, why do you think that's happening. 5 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, we just got to be more disciplined, definitely, that's 6 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 3: one of the things that we need to clean up, 7 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 3: especially for the past two weeks. We just got to 8 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 3: make sure that we communicate right. We're communicating our rush right, 9 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 3: and then we just got to do a good job 10 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 3: of just knowing our assignment and doing our job. 11 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 4: Chris Ryan follow. 12 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 2: On that topic. 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 5: When you look at what Rogers able to do last night, 14 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 5: how much of that was was him and kind of 15 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 5: his poise and understanding the moment the coverages versus you know, 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 5: what you were. 17 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 2: Trying to do and not getting him out of that. 18 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 3: I think for us, when you look at it like mistackles, 19 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 3: the things that we didn't do well, so like keeping 20 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 3: them on the field, So it's not really what they 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 3: did is what we didn't do to get them off 22 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 3: the field. So whether it was a penity, whether it 23 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 3: was the miss tackles, or whether it was a misalignment, 24 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 3: all right, those are the things that that's not really 25 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 3: anything the Jets did. It was what an EP defense did. 26 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 3: So that's kind of how I look at it. It's 27 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 3: really catch and throw and tackle, you know, simple fundamentals football. 28 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 3: It wasn't anything where it was like, uh, you know 29 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 3: X and o's. It was really about you know, catching, blocking, defeeding, blocks, tackling. 30 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: That's what it came down to really, and we didn't 31 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: exec you well when. 32 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 5: It comes to getting guys down, particularly you know in 33 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 5: the backfield. You had Allen a couple of times there 34 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 5: and he was able to get you know, free and 35 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 5: yardage as a result of that. What what are the 36 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 5: coaching points there to improve on on that? 37 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean first of all, like just with tacklings, 38 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 3: wrapping up, squeezing and getting our weight down and for us, 39 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 3: and also it's just you know, high entry, so when 40 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,839 Speaker 3: they're cutting them back, so going in with the high entry, 41 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: being able to go in there and close the space 42 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 3: and then work near shoulder, the near legging their shoulder 43 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 3: and rapping. 44 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 2: Squeeze so and then really the space tackling. 45 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 3: So that's what we've got to continue, which I would 46 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: say we've been pretty good at that. 47 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: You know, that's one of our things. 48 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: I would say one of our strengths and and but 49 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 3: last night it definitely wasn't was not our strength. So 50 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 3: we'll get our next time, the opportunity to practice next week, 51 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 3: that definitely will be one of our focus.
