1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 1: Afternoon, Bill Um. This morning, Cam Newton said that he 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: felt he's thinking too much on the field. How from 3 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:18,639 Speaker 1: a coaching perspective, can you guys address and fix that? Well, 4 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: we just we need to try to do the things 5 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: that we're going to do in the game on the 6 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: practice field, try to execute them better there, and let's 7 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 1: start with that. And I think if we do it 8 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: on the practice field, we'll have a better chance of 9 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: success in the game. So that's what we'll do about. 10 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 1: Next question, Allison Ryan, Thanks Jacy you have for him. 11 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: Go I got a question I'm gonna ask some of 12 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: the general since Bill, in your career, you've worked with 13 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: a lot of quarterbacks. Each quarterback, of course, is different, 14 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: but in general, when you have seen quarterbacks that appear 15 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: to hold off the ball a little bit extra time, 16 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: appear to not be sure of their targets, what is 17 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: that sugested to you in the in the past in 18 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: terms of working with that quarterback to get them on 19 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: a better path. Well, the passing game, as you know, uh, 20 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: the timeline of passing game varies from play to play, 21 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: So some passes are intended to be quicker and shorter 22 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: drops or could be in a shotgun, but whatever. Other 23 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: players are more intermediate level type plays and some are longer, 24 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: and then some are you know, moving poppet pocket design 25 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: and things like that. So it really depends on the 26 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: timing of the play and you know, how long we're 27 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: holding the ball and how deep the routes are and 28 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: so forth, and then of course what happens with the 29 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: receivers and the coverage and obviously the protection, so all 30 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: those variables come into play as well. But um, you know, 31 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: we have different timing on the passes throughout the game, 32 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: and so sometimes the design is for the play to 33 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: take longer and give it a chance to develop more 34 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: downfield and spread the defense. Other other plays are designed 35 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: for the ball to come out quicker. And I feel 36 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: comfortable with all those in our offense, and we just 37 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: need to do a better job with it, and we 38 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: need to coach it better. We need to execute them better. 39 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: Welcome next question. Chris Ryan called, Hey, Bill, just curious 40 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: as to how you go about um attacking the issues 41 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: that this football team has right now. You've mentioned before 42 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: that the lack of time in the practice field and 43 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: hoping that continuity would be gathered there. Obviously, the team 44 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: looked like it was in a good place prior to 45 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: the COVID situation has been different afterwards. How do you 46 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: go about trying to get to where you want to go? Well, 47 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: as I said, I think it starts in the opportunities 48 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: that we have to work together, whether it's in meetings, walkthroughs, 49 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: or on the practice field, which is you know, the 50 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: best time, best opportunity. So we'll take advantage of all 51 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: those and and you know, work hard to improve our 52 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: performance at every level, individually and in each unit. You know, 53 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: we all need to do a better job, and that's obvious. 54 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: Do you feel that the team is as far off 55 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: as you guys look at this point in time or 56 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: are you confident what you've seen in the past that 57 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: this group can rekindle what it had earlier this year? Well, 58 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: I'm focused on us improving in doing doing the best 59 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: that we can and doing better than we've done. So, um, 60 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: we'll see where that puts us. I don't know, but 61 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: we certainly need to improve and where we are and 62 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: we will. So we'll just have to, like I said, 63 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: do it in the in the meetings and the walkthrough, 64 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: in film sessions and on the practice field and Hopefully 65 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: that that'll translate into better for uns on Sunday. It 66 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: usually does. Thanks Bill. Next question jed Hi follow my 67 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: Michael her Bill Cam hasn't thrown to the right side 68 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: of the field very frequently over the last couple of games. 69 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: Is there a specific issue that's that's causing him not 70 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: to look that way? And how important is it to 71 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: spread the ball around the field to stress a defense. Oh, well, 72 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: it's important to throw the ball at the open receiver 73 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: and gain positive yards when you're throwing it. So that's again, 74 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: plays are designed differently and coverage just come out differently 75 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: and so forth. You know, it's it's hard to it's 76 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: not that frequent that you know exactly where the ball 77 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: is going to go unless there's a screen pass or 78 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: something like that. That's you know, when you have multiple 79 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: players out in the route. It depends on what the 80 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: coverage is and what the matchups are. Where the quarterback goes. 81 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,679 Speaker 1: So there's really not necessarily a lot of plays designed 82 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: to go to a certain point on the field. It 83 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: just kind of ends up that way. And so hopefully 84 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: we just continue to have good distribution, have good spacing, 85 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: do a good job out running, find the open receiver, 86 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: read the coverage, and get the ball to the get 87 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: the ball with somebody that can catch it and run 88 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: with it. So that's that's really the idea. So we'll 89 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 1: let's see if we can do a better job of that, 90 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: do you compan Byers hasn't received a ton of opportunities 91 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: this season, but he was productive in his snaps yesterday. 92 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: Could that afford him more playing time in the future. 93 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 1: Of course, good production always is really the more playing time. 94 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: Next question, mean, Michael Hurley, if everybody else wants to 95 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: ask a question and ask the region men. Hey, bill Um, 96 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about turnovers. Your team has 97 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: h fourteen giveaways this year, and I know over the 98 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: years that certainly is out of line with with with 99 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: what the normal case has been. I'm wondering from your perspective, 100 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: what it has been, the contributing factors to that, and 101 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: and how that might be correctable going forward. Yeah, well 102 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: it has today correctly going forward for us to have 103 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: any success. So um, it's nothing more important than that. 104 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: We've put a tremendous on emphasis on it. Just got 105 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: to do a better Job's do a better job of coaching. 106 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: I have to do a better job taking care of 107 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: the ball. Um. The issues have been multiple and um 108 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: different different things. I've contributed to those turnovers on various plays, 109 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: um so, and there've been some some examples where the 110 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: ball's been out but we've been able to get it back. 111 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: So those really fall into that same category. UM, you 112 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: know where we didn't actually lose the ball that we 113 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: could have, and so we've got to We've we have 114 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: addressed all those, will continue to address them, but we 115 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: need to we need to start changing the number of 116 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: times at the ball the opponents are able to touch 117 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: the ball. We need to cut that out to zero. 118 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: The next querson, Dan Road, followed by Nicolmali. Bill Kim 119 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: said this morning that maybe he's thinking too much, and 120 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: he said that he's also pressing of how do you 121 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: deal with the mental side of something like that? Is 122 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: it take into the practice field? Is it the reps, 123 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: the repetition over and over to gain the confidence that 124 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: you need. Yeah, again, practice reps are a good place 125 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: to start. Dan, that's UM, if you can do it 126 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: on the practice field, then that that increases your chances 127 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: of being able to do it in game situations considerably. 128 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: So you know, we'll continue to work for preparation off 129 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: the field and then execution on the field. And I 130 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 1: hope that that execution on the practice field carries over 131 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: to uh in game execution. That's that's what we need. 132 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: So there's no other way to do it. There's there's 133 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: only one game scheduled, so we have to we have 134 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,839 Speaker 1: to work on those things in practice and improve our 135 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: our levels of execution. There we two final questions mutham 136 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: by Bill after the Jimmy Garoppol intersection and the penalty 137 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: that was called unchased one of its we saw you 138 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: have an exchange with him on the sidelines and then 139 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: we didn't see one of itch on the field much 140 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: after that. Was his decrease in playing time related to 141 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: that playing that penalty? No last question of least sans 142 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: height on Bill. Um, I'm just curious. Um, this is 143 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: the fourth game. There's fourth time in five games that 144 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: you guys haven't scored in the first quarter. Um, how 145 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: do you address that? And um, you know going forward, 146 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: do you think you might have to change you know, 147 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: that game plan of probably running it for us, maybe 148 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: passing it now, you know, just to be a little 149 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: aggressive they're on the field. But I think we've we've 150 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: throwned it. You know, we've thrown it in the first 151 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: quarter two. But regardless, you know, well, I mean, look, 152 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: you always want to score and get ahead and you know, 153 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: be productive, um the first time you get the ball, 154 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: and really every time you get the ball. That's that's 155 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: the idea of the offense is to move the ball 156 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 1: and score points. So um, collectively, we've got to do 157 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: a better job of you know, coaching, playing, executing, and 158 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: being efficient and productive early in the game. And also 159 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: at the end of the game. We've got our opportunities 160 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: there as well. So but just in general, um, you know, 161 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: the falling behind early in the game is not a 162 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: great not a great formula um for winning. So we 163 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: need to score more points early, um, and move the 164 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: ball and score more points early, take care of the 165 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: ball and play better defense and better in a kicking 166 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: game early as well, and all those things help. But 167 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 1: that's I'm not playing from behind, it's not that's never 168 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: our goal. So I'll try to try to improve that 169 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: this week too. Thank you, Yeah, you're welcome. Thanks everyone. 170 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: M
