1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: I was warning you're probably I would guess I didn't

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: do a study on this. You're probably the only staff

3
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL with three guys on it who were

4
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: or are special teams coordinators. Um does that what does

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: that brain power kind of do? Does it allow you

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: as a staff maybe to do some different things? You know,

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: your your stuff last week with the you know, putting

8
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: pressure on the punter or not having a guy back

9
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 1: was different. Um, you know what is that? Like that

10
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: that whole synergy with three guys who are coordinators, you

11
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: can kind of bounce things off of. Uh. You know again,

12
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: it's a ton of experience here in the building. And uh,

13
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,639
Speaker 1: you know, when we sit down a game plan, it's

14
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: a collaborative effort. We sit down and try and find

15
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: ways to give us an edge as a group. Being

16
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 1: able to have all the different experience and knowledge in

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: the building, obviously it's a it's a benefit. Uh. But

18
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we all come together,

19
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: we make a decision, and then once we make the decision,

20
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: we go on the field and try and go execute.

21
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: And that's that's the bottom line. But it is good

22
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: having all the experience in the building. For sure, do

23
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: you find yourself interacting with Joe as the head coach

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: more than you have done in the past with other

25
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: head coaches who didn't have that special team's background. Absolutely, Uh,

26
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely been a different experience for me as

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: far as being a coordinator and then having uh a

28
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: head coach who has been a coordinated before. And you know,

29
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: I've had that experience before, but coach Ramil I was

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: a young coach and coach ramil was obviously a older

31
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: veteran coach at the time. So but being able to

32
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 1: talk to your head coach and he understands exactly what's

33
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: going on and how to attack it or what's the issue,

34
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: what's the problem or with the you know, with thet

35
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,559
Speaker 1: man roster, and you know, just all those different things

36
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: that go into being a special HMS coordinated, all the

37
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: nuances of the job. It's it's excellent having him as

38
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: as a head coach. Thank you, right, Tea Mack You guys,

39
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: claimed Dante Pettis yesterday. I know he's not going to

40
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: be in the building for a while, but you know,

41
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: what do you see from him as a special teamer

42
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: coming out of college? You know, Dante Pettis is one

43
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: of the best pump returners in the history of college football.

44
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: You know, he had I want to think it's nine

45
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: pump returns for touchdown, so h you know, obviously he's

46
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: he's had some uh some success in the past, and

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: hopefully once he gets here, uh, we'll find out what

48
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: his skill set is, what he can do, find the

49
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: strengths and try and play to that. And then on

50
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: those on those punts that Paul referenced earlier where you

51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 1: had eleven guys up. I mean, obviously you want to

52
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: you're trying to block it, but what's the sort of

53
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: the overarching goal there? What's what are you what are

54
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: you looking for? Just to pressure the operation? You know,

55
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: if we block it, then that's that's just you know,

56
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: that's gravy. But uh, you know, anytime you want to

57
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: anytime you can put pressure on the punter, that's what

58
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: you want to do. Uh, And and that was what

59
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: we decided to do. So uh, you know, came up

60
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: not short, but you know you would she could have

61
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: blocked it, but we had a good net result of it,

62
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: you know, thirty three yard punch, so it was definitely beneficial. Dougie, Uh,

63
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: you gotta take fast because Tim just on my question, uh,

64
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 1: how much of the wind playing factors didn't like either

65
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: punter was really booming the ball then as that playing

66
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: through it, So, uh, the wind wasn't a strong factor.

67
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: It was we were actually anticipating thirty and forty winds

68
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: during the day. It was blown really strong, and then

69
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: once once we got into the stadium and it was

70
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: non existent. So but it was still a little cool

71
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: out there, and obviously the ball is not gonna fly

72
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: as far as it normally does in seventy or eighty

73
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: degree weather, so it was a little different for Bradley.

74
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: But you know, we just you know, we just pressured

75
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: him and came up a little short as best I

76
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: could throw off the top of my head. Ah, you're good,

77
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: but take three more. Jordan Art Pat Jordan A team Mac.

78
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: You to have a new uh kick off free turner, right,

79
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: what did you what did you think? I mean, he

80
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: had a pretty good returns and uh, so that's seem

81
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: to be the way that you know, he hurned himself

82
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: more opportunities there. Uh, you know Dion has done it

83
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: before in the past. You know, he's he's an experienced guy.

84
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: He's he's scored touchdowns before in the past, so, uh,

85
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: you know, I think it was a combination of our

86
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 1: guys up front blocking better and and and just him

87
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: understanding where to fit and where he needs to go.

88
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: And Dion's fearless, so he's gonna hit it hard, straight fast,

89
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: and he had a good result. We had a couple

90
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: of good results. I think it's a it's make that

91
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: change now, Like what was it thinking behind it? Obviously

92
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: the whole time? An right, Uh, it's it was more

93
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: of just a situational deal, you know, just uh, you

94
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: know again, we were anticipating to win and all that

95
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: different stuff, so we we just threw him back there

96
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: just see if we can, you know, make some plays

97
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: and it works. I know, you know, playing Washington first

98
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: second time in the last couple of weeks offensively and defensively,

99
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: we would think familiarity Bowl teams, you know, maybe you

100
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: look to throw some wrinkles from your perspective, can you

101
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: guys do anything differently or there are things that you

102
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: may have noticed in the first game, and you say,

103
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: you know what, we think we can kind of attack

104
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: them a little differently. Now, how does that work from

105
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 1: your your guys perspective, is that fromiliarity with the unit's help. Yeah,

106
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's from week to week. You know,

107
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: any any time we play a divisional opponent, you're there's

108
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: some familiarity. I know, there's a you know, the tightness

109
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: of the time is is you know a little different,

110
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: but you know there's always a wrinkle here or wrinkle

111
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 1: there's something that you can do differently than what you

112
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: did the last time. You know, the most important thing

113
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: is just us. You know, it's it's not about them.

114
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: It's more about us and what we do and how

115
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: we do it, you know, and that we talked to

116
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: our players about that all the time, just the fundamentals

117
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: and the techniques and the execution of the scheme and

118
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: and that's that's our main priority. You know. Obviously we're

119
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: playing Washington, but we'll probably focus a little bit more

120
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: on what we do and how we do it. That's

121
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: one hear Pat Lennard, Hey, tema not to belabor the

122
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,679
Speaker 1: punt block thing, but it is that just as simple

123
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: as maybe you see possible think weaknesses you can exploit

124
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: in that specific opponent. And so that's like an opponent's

125
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: specific strategy. You know, when you look at the tape

126
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: and you look at certain people across the league. Again,

127
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: this is a people league. So when you think you

128
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: can take advantage of a situation, when you think you

129
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 1: can put pressure, uh on a punter, or it might

130
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: be situationally conditions. It could be very windy, you know,

131
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: is it is it a situation where he's gonna have

132
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 1: trouble handling the ball? Can the ball move? You know,

133
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: so all those different things play into it. So it's

134
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: not just uh, you know, a certain guy, or it

135
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: could be it could be a plethora of things. You know,

136
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: they're going to uh just game planning. So when we

137
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: go in, we take all of those things into consideration

138
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: and then you know, once we come up with the plan,

139
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: we just try and go execute and a quick follow

140
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: up if you don't mind. Obviously there it was a

141
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: good return by Dion, but if he kicked it outside,

142
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: it looked like he might have been able to score.

143
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: If you know, do you would you coach that point

144
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: hard to a veteran the same way you would a kid.

145
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: I never, I don't have that ball in my hand

146
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: right so I can play, you know, coach on on

147
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: Monday or Tuesday when we come in and watch the tape.

148
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: But at that point in time, he has the ball

149
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: in his hands and we put them back there because

150
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: we trust them, you know. So when you get the

151
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: ball in your hand and you make an instinctual play,

152
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: you know, obviously we can go back and rewind the

153
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: tape and say, hey, look you should have cut over here.

154
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: And he he knows the same thing. He said it
