Speaker 2: So, like Armstormers before, like that where you've had to

11
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 2: take a day off.

12
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, in college? Yeah, in college was it was often

13
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 3: it was just adjusting to starting to stop. And honestly,

14
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 3: that's all. That's all it truly is. Is you know,

15
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: sometimes you're going hot, then you'll wait for a second

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 3: and then you'll get cold and get back hot, then

17
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 3: get cold, and you know, I'm just I wouldn't My

18
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 3: arm and body wasn't used to that, you know, So

19
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 3: it's just an adjustment like within the body, you know,

20
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: within my arm.

21
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's pretty mature, you not, I guess maybe mature

22
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 4: isn't the right work. But for you to self report

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 4: when I know it's hard for you guys to take

24
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 4: yourselves out of even one rep when you're in the middle.

25
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 5: Of the competition.

26
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 4: So did you have to debate that at all or.

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 6: Did you just no?

28
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 3: Of course you of course, there's definitely something you know

29
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 3: in your mind. And I always think about my I

30
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 3: always hear my dad voice in my mind, you know,

31
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 3: all the time because it's always bona blood. You know,

32
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: you know his motto and you know, you know his

33
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: slang with everything. So of course I was definitely hearing

34
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 3: his voice in the back of my head. But at

35
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 3: the end of the day, I want to be productive.

36
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: I want to give you guys the best work, and

37
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 3: I want to be at my best at all times.

38
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 6: You know, M right? For what?

39
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:04,800

40
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 7: Come on, now, be told how.

41
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 8: You'll be used to Friday in.

42
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,679
Speaker 5: The Carolina game.

43
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 3: No, I haven't been told that yet.

44
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 8: So what are you get from that game?

45
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 9: Reps?

46
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: I think I think that's I think that's pretty much it.

47
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: It's reps.

48
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 10: How about you, what do you think the reps you're

49
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 10: gonna get in this first joint practice.

50
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 5: Are going to get ready for that?

51
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think every rep I get in general is valuable.

52
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 9: You know.

53
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 3: Uh, we definitely taking things up a nots. I would

54
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: say with everything. So every rep, you know, anytime I

55
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 3: step on the field, I take it, you know, like

56
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: it could be my last cause you don't know it's

57
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 3: players that we was and uh just practicing with last

58
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 3: week that's not here no more so like I said it,

59
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 3: it it's more about a bond. It's more about uh

60
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 3: going all out. It's more about you know, how you'll

61
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: be remembered.

62
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 9: You know what do you.

63
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 11: Feel like your growth has been the most? Is it

64
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 11: on the field, is it the meeting room? Is there

65
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 11: a specific ration where you say man.

66
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 3: I I would say I would say mentally. I would

67
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 3: definitely say mentally. Uh, even regardless if people, if media,

68
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 3: you know, have good ways or bad ways that come

69
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 3: about me. You know I'm more mature and not making

70
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 3: those same mistakes I made, you know in college or

71
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 3: whatever I did. So you know, I treat everybody we

72
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 3: respecting with careen. Whenever everybody gets over you know, their

73
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 3: own hate towards me for their own weird reason, then

74
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 3: you know everything will be that good. So that's it.

75
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 3: I don't That's where I grew the most is I'll say, mentally,

76
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 3: shou should I.

77
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 2: Know you still haven't taken any reps with the one offense,

78
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 2: but you took them against the one defense. Did you

79
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: find that particularly valuable going against guys like Benzyl and

80
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 2: whatever else is.

81
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 5: Out there with the ones?

82
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say pretty much. I view it as

83
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 3: the defense does a great job of mixing players in

84
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 3: so backers, you got rookies out there, sometimes DB's, you

85
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 3: got different guys out there. So it's not Mentally I

86
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 3: go out there, I'm like, oh, you know these are

87
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 3: the ones. I'm gonna get nervous like it don't got

88
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: anything to do with that. And truthfully, I don't care

89
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: what Olana go out there with. It could be ones, twos, threes,

90
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 3: whatever the situation is. And I know Friday, when the

91
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 3: game is, if I'm with twos of them with threes,

92
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: it don't matter to me. I'm just ready to get

93
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: down and get to you know, doing what I could do.

94
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 8: What's the past couple of months been like?

95
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 12: Because your dad came out with the announcement of cancer

96
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,119
Speaker 12: last week in the street and it's just what's happen

97
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 12: like for you and the family.

98
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 3: In the last couple of months. Yeah, well, I said,

99
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 3: it's definitely, uh, stay focused mentally. Dad, he's one person

100
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 3: that uh he'll handle his We we we handle what

101
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 3: we gotta do. So it was something that you know,

102
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: we really ain't need to have no formal conversation about

103
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 3: because it was like, y'all need to focus on what

104
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 3: y'all can focus on. Y'all can't you know, sit here

105
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 3: and feel sorry for me and then that's affecting y'all

106
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 3: doing that. So we all knew because our family be

107
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 3: talking in group chats and everything. So why but at

108
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: the end of the day, y'all able to see and

109
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 3: y'all and y'all able to understand, you know, everything on

110
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 3: the field, off the field, you know what I go through.

111
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 3: So then you know, you gotta be some type of

112
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: human at some point in a way. How I'm doing

113
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 3: everything and how I'm haling everything that's thrown at me.

114
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 3: You know, you got no choice but to applaud of that.

115
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 4: Who you are heading into block three of this training

116
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 4: camp and you're still right in the thick of this

117
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 4: four way quarterback competition. What does that say about how

118
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 4: hard you were and what you've been doing behind the

119
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 4: scenes that we don't even see to be still in

120
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 4: this mix?

121
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't.

122
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 3: I don't think not getting out the mix is even

123
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 3: a thought in my mind, you know, in any room.

124
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 3: So I I know I have the upmost standards for myself,

125
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 3: and uh, I know all I could do is go

126
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 3: out there and do what I gotta do every day

127
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 3: and make as minimum mistakes. And I know it's long

128
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 3: ways to go with everything. And I know, oh, you know,

129
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 3: I lack experience on this realm and on this level.

130
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 3: But one thing I can hang my hat on is

131
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: in all pressous situations, you know who I am.

132
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 4: And I saw that your your dad mentioned on the

133
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 4: Michael Irvan podcast that, uh, he wanted to come.

134
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 3: Here and see you, but you yeah, I told him, Yeah,

135
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 3: I told him, don't come.

136
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 7: And wh why did you say that?

137
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 3: Because I mean, like I I look, I look at

138
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 3: it at my own point of view, like I don't

139
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 3: want him coming to see me right now because I wanna,

140

00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 3: him to see me. I don't want him to come

144
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 3: you can't be proud of me right now. I gotta

145
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 3: get to where I'm going, and I know it's a

146
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 3: lot I gotta do to get there. So it's kind

147
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: of like I just want everything that I'm doing is

148
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 3: just like focus on this time.

149
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 8: And I don't wanna know.

150
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: Distractions because we know out of media, we know how

151
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 3: everybody will take it and take away from the team. Uh,

152
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: just from him being my own dad showing up, so

153
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 3: you know it, it's a gift and a curse at

154
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 3: the same time.

155
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:09,760

Speaker 3: you know, get live reps and everything. So I'm just thankful.

166

Speaker 3: and I stay focused throughout everything, so whenever it is

168
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: my time to get out there, I won't Uh, I'll

169
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 3: be able to be myself.

170
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 5: What Jimmy and then Jeff and we gotta cut it?

00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 13: But yours do you think can show up in a

172
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 13: game setting that that maybe we don't.

173
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 5: See as much of practice?

174
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 3: So have you watched me in college?

175
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 11: Yeah?

176
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 3: Well you know a little bit of that going on. Uh,

177
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 3: I'm still the same guy, you know, I don't nothing

178
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 3: happened to me. I'm the same guy. If anything, I'm

179
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 3: a little bit stronger mentally, physically, uh, emotionally and h

180
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 3: the way how I handle different situations like shit, know you.

181
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 14: Mentioned earlier about people hating on you. You're blocking that out

182
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 14: and everybody it seems like nobody's neutral, right.

183
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how many people'll hit you, but anyway,

184
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 3: so how do you how do you.

185
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 8: Block all that stop out?

186
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 3: How do I block out the noise? I would say

187
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 3: it always been like I always face adversity, you know,

188
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 3: since growing up in each level it had always been something.

189
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 3: So you just know how when when you figure out

190
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 3: how people come at you and I and in life is

191
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 3: a cycle, it keeps repeating over and over and over.

192
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 3: Then you understand, you know what game this is or

193
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 3: what they're doing, you know, So I can never feel

194
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 3: less than nobody could ever make me mentally get out

195
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 3: of position in the situation I am. I'm thankful for

196
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 3: who I am. I'm thankful for who my dad is.

197
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 3: I'm thankful for my family, and you know, no one

198
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 3: can make me feel bad about the blessing that.

199
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 6: I do have. To trust people.

200
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 3: Nah, I feel like I feel like trust trust. Trust

201
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 3: is a deep thing, but it it's different levels of trust.

202
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 8: You know.

203
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 3: Overall, it's a lot of people that that you'll trust

204
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 3: driving your car, but it's a lot of people that

205
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 3: you wouldn't trust taking your kids somewhere, you know, and

206
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 3: drop your wife off at home. So it's different levels

207
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 3: of trust overall. So they don't make me hard because

208
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 3: I start out neutral, you know, I start out with neutral.

209
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 3: I it's a couple familiar faces I see out here,

210
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 3: but others not so much. But I don't have a

211
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: problem with anybody, So I live life free. But then

212
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 3: you know, whenever it's negative, then there it's like, all right,

213
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 3: you didn't cause this now, But nah, I'm I stay

214
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 3: new to it.

215
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 9: Everything.

216
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 3: I don't really have treat everybody with oh most respect.

217
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 3: Now you ever heard anything negative about my character?

218
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 8: In a minute?

219
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: Next, rookie quarterback Dylan Gabriel talks about his expectations for

220
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: joint practices in Carolina.

221
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 15: How excited about you job probably actually get into a

222
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 15: game against facing another team.

223
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 16: Yeah, I don't want to give you the cliche answer

224
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 16: to him. Extremely excited, but as you can imagine, it's

225
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 16: my first time. So it'll be a lot of fun

226
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 16: being able to you know, get around a new team

227
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 16: and compete against a new team.

228
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 6: Uh. Different from college in that way.

229
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 16: And excited for you know, just another opportunity.

230
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 4: What are you looking for to most him, just even

231
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 4: just a joint practice when you can get down there

232
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 4: in that way.

233
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it'll just be interesting. It's it's a

234
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 16: cool concept too, Like I said, being a rookie kind

235
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 16: of new to how preseason works. Uh, it'll be interesting

236
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 16: to see how it does a joint practice even leading

237
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 16: into the preseason game. But you know, it's it's fun

238
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 16: and I know colleges have talked about it before and

239
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 16: wanted to do that, and something that you know you

240
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 16: look forward to.

241
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 6: Its competitor as well, so I it'll be interesting.

242
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 5: Through two weeks.

243
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 9: How do you feel your dealing?

244
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 16: Yeah, I don't. I don't look at it through two weeks.

245
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 16: How I I think I'm doing. I think just day

246
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 16: to day. I think there's a lot of growth and

247
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 16: that's from when I first got here up until now.

248
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 6: And I think it's it's forever evolving, you know.

249
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 16: And I I I wanna continue to be better and

250
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 16: continue to grow. And there's ups and downs and ebbs

251
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 16: and flows within the competition. Feel to play, That's that's

252
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 16: just what happens. And uh, for me, I just wanna

253
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 16: continue to be better than I was yesterday. And do

254
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 16: you do I've I've been I've been prepared for the

255
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 16: moment yea, you know so, Uh I'm excited for that

256
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 16: and and know that, uh, these moments add up. But

257
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 16: each moment is its own situation and one that you

258
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 16: wanna take advantage of.

259
00:11:59,000 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 9: How do you think.

260
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 8: You to lose downs to be able to.

261
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 5: Down or financial.

262
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 8: Training camp or season?

263
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 16: Well, it's it's life, you know, I I think, Uh,

264
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 16: for for many it's it's what you put yourself out

265
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 16: there as a competitor. Of course, you want certain results,

266
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 16: but sometimes it doesn't always go your way. And there's

267
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 16: a lot of things that uh, collectively we can help

268
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 16: one another out and and be better in certain aspects.

269
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 16: And it starts with me as the quarterback who touches

270
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,719
Speaker 16: upall every single play. But that's just it's a it's

271
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 16: the ultimate team sport, you know, and and that's why

272
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 16: you love, uh competing in it and I love playing

273
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 16: the game.

274
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 15: How do you think playing so many years in college

275
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 15: has prepared you to.

276
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 16: Know if that we're gonna be some down time, but

277
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 16: not then you don't get discovered.

278
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, it's just.

279
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 16: I don't don't wanna make it about down time, but

280
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,719
Speaker 16: I I think it's it's more so just with all

281
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 16: my experience, Uh you've been through a lot of situations

282
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 16: and have seen a lot. Doesn't mean there won't be

283
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 16: new situations that are unique to uh that time and

284
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 16: and certain situation, but uh you just appreciate 'em all

285
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 16: and you know that through through all that growth is

286
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 16: is gonna become at all time high because uh there's

287
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 16: times to learn, there's times to grow, and uh, the

288
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 16: more you put yourself out there in that way, uh,

289
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 16: the faster you can get there.

290
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 15: It's been reported nationally that the Browns are put on

291
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 15: a lot on your plate in particular because they feel

292
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 15: and what challenge.

293
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 8: You see you on what you can get on?

294
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 6: Yep?

295
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 9: Do you feel that challenge? And what do you think

296
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 9: of what I'm doing that? Yeah?

297
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 16: I think uh A lot of programs I've been a

298
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 16: part of have done that. And I think you you

299
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 16: try to put a lot of stress offensively to see

300
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 16: how much your team can handle. And uh, you know,

301
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 16: for me, it's something that I'm accustomed to and and

302
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 16: you wanna you wanna stress early and know when to

303
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 16: pull back. And I think we've done a great balance

304
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 16: of that as a team. And uh, I think you

305
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 16: challenge not only the quarterback position but everyone around you

306
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 16: to see how much how versatile you can be, but

307
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 16: also conceptually, how how you can make it simplified for

308
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 16: everyone to understand.

309
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 5: What's the biggest difference for you? Uh working with the

310
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 5: second and third seas and the occasional.

311
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 16: Toimes for your work group of first and the Yeah

312
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 16: for me, I I I go back to pros or

313
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 16: pros and reps are reps.

314
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 6: You know.

315
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 16: I think when you get in there, uh, y you

316
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 16: do go through your progressions, and you go through you know,

317
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 16: your pre snap ways of operating. But for the most part,

318
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 16: I think, you know, there's a lot of great players

319
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 16: on the field at all times, and uh, you gotta compete.

320
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 6: At a high level no matter what. So if I if.

321
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 16: I were to change how my approach was per ones,

322
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 16: two threes, whatever it may be, then I'm not serving

323
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 16: the moment for who I wanna be.

324
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 6: Every single rep.

325
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 17: Really, what is it that you're looking to accomplish Friday

326
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 17: for the press game and the find supermage? Is there

327
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 17: any personal vote that you wanna accomplish or just overall

328
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 17: team goes on a little bit of vote.

329
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 16: Yeah, just executing it at a high level. And I

330
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 16: think for all of us, we all wanna do that.

331
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 16: But collectively being able to get in the game flow

332
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 16: and and see how you know, not just in certain

333
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 16: team racks where you work in certain situations, but in

334
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 16: true move the ball, how you can build momentum, build flow. Uh,

335
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 16: not just for you know, me as a quarterback, but

336
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 16: for the whole unit. And I think that'll be good

337
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 16: for us, you know, going into Wednesday, but also Friday

338
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 16: as well.

339
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, what strengths of yours.

340
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 13: Do you think can be showcased in a in a

341
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 13: gay live game setting that maybe.

342
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 5: Practice is harder to show.

343
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think just me being myself, you know, and

344
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 16: being able to go out there and operate. And I

345
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 16: think at the quarterback position, you make good decisions like that, Uh,

346
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 16: the rest will come into play and you know, you

347
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 16: wanna showcase how you can operate within the system, and

348
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 16: the rest will take care of itself. So that's what

349
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 16: I wanna, uh be able to showcase. But more importantly,

350
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 16: just us coming together as a team. I think it's

351
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 16: a great opportunity for us.

352
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 11: All you well, you you mentioned that college doesn't really

353
00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 11: have something like this, Yeah, preseason. Is there something where

354
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 11: you can kind of, you know, compare it to something

355
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 11: that you've gone through in college that to at least

356
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 11: kind of put a you know, kind of give.

357
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 5: It a you know.

358
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 16: I I actually we were talking about it this morning.

359
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 16: I actually go back to high school.

360
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 9: You know.

361
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 16: I remember in high school we'd have a camp Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Thursday,

362
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 16: we're scrimmaging three other teams all on field. So it

363
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 16: gives more of that feel. That's why I kind of

364
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 16: use the college aspect. I'm not too familiar with it

365
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 16: since my high school times, so it'll be interesting to

366
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 16: to see it on you know, display on Wednesday. But

367
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 16: I look forward to it, and you know, I think

368
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 16: that's where I kind of use high school college NFL.

369
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 6: How different it may be.

370
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 4: How you don't feel like you have been performing in this.

371
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 3: Camp so far.

372
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 16: Yeah, I go back to just every single day is

373
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 16: it's individual of its own, and I think you wanna

374
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 16: collectively build days, but you know within that you wanna

375
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 16: be proud of certain reps, but you want to be

376
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 16: proud of how there's opportunity to grow and and correcting,

377
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,919
Speaker 16: you know, maybe mistake once to next time and continue

378
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 16: to answer the bell that way. So for me, it's

379
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 16: just it's doing that and stacking it up. But the

380
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 16: more reps, the more tries you get at it, the

381
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 16: more confidence you build, and you know, the ability to

382
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 16: showcase what you can do slowly by just operating within

383
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 16: the offense.

384
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 8: More on your plate.

385
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 7: And knowing they're putting more on your plate and you

386
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 7: dealt with that before.

387
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 14: I guess how would you learn to handle that.

388
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 7: And stay in the moment and take things one at

389
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 7: a time and.

390
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 6: That or study habits for me are huge.

391
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 16: You know, I think you want to approach it a

392
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 16: certain way and that's you know, I don't want to

393
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 16: use this quote again, but coach always talks about an

394
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 16: elephant eating one bad bite at a time, and and

395
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 16: for me, it's you got to do it that way.

396
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 16: You gotta you know, break it down, make it easy

397
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 16: to learn and memorize. But then also when you're out there,

398
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 16: it's got to be able to translate as well. So

399
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 16: you know, whenever you can translate you know, the classroom

400
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 16: to the field, that's been huge for me. And that's

401
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 16: whether it's walked throughs, you know, going through the cadence

402
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 16: and calls, you know, getting used to that. But then

403
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 16: also you know, the physical aspect of connecting with receivers,

404
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 16: being able to see a operation pre snap and post.

405
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 16: Now that's all things that, uh, you wanna be extremely

406
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 16: comfortable in so that you can just go out and

407
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 16: play now that.

408
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 8: You're more familiar with this offense.

409
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 18: It's just it's just made Uh in what ways is

410
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 18: this system exce excentuat.

411
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 9: Would you do better?

412
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 16: You know, I think throughout the process, you know, even

413
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 16: leading up to here, I knew that there's a lot

414
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 16: of similarities you know, in in Oregon and what I

415
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 16: did there, which you know, helped me come in here

416
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 16: in Cleveland. Offensively, I think schematically there's a lot of

417
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 16: things that I have done before in the past, so

418
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 16: I could conceptualize it a lot easier in that way.

419
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:48,360
Speaker 6: But I think.

420
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 16: In just my abilities, I I've I've done it, you know,

421
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 16: in in this type of scheme. So it's just now

422
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 16: it's the next level. There's a lot more to do,

423
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 16: and you have to consistently do it. Like like I

424
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 16: always say, it's a results based business.

425
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 6: So what have you done for me lately?

426
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 9: Right?

427
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 6: And that's what I I look forward to.

428
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 9: Organizations been, you know.

429
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 14: Really focused on your process as a lot about with

430
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 14: you and any other quarterbacks.

431
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 6: From what point do the results?

432
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 14: Uh do you start paying attention to the results?

433
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 6: From?

434
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 9: When did the results start to matter for you.

435
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 16: Outside of the possible great great question, cause you always

436
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 16: want results, but I think more than anything, it's consistent results.

437
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 16: So if you don't have a process you can truly

438
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 16: hang your hat on, then you know you're leaving up

439
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 16: to chance, or maybe it's more inconsistent rather than having

440
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 16: a strong process and of course you know how the

441
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 16: game of football goes.

442
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 6: There's a lot of positives.

443
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 16: There may be some negatives, but there's also something to

444
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 16: pridden yourself on.

445
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,439
Speaker 6: Your process and how you work and how you approach it.

446
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 16: And for me, I think you build up that process

447
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 16: and you wanna see results and it will come. And

448
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 16: definitely know that, like I just said, it's a results

449
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 16: based business, so you gotta go do it. And that's

450
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,679
Speaker 16: always we always talk about no excuses, know what to

451
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 16: do and do it. So uh, I think that's the

452
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 16: approach and and knowing that you gotta go out there

453
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 16: and do it you and I'm sure.

454
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 12: Just so lasting what phases us you know from draft.

455
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 10: Or work communicants, and you get the camp to that

456
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 10: and you can't now to like.

457
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 19: You've just developed in different ways or picked up once

458
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 19: certain things or I guess at these stage, you almost

459
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 19: two weeks into training camp, what do you feel like

460
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 19: maybe you've developed.

461
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 10: Or in the most during its first time?

462
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think just getting more around the guys. You know,

463
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 16: when you build up rapport with with those guys, you're

464
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 16: able to build a lot more flow and feel a

465
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 16: lot more consistent whether it's tendencies on their routes, you know,

466
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 16: and you know, I bring up with Deontay Johnson, like

467
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 16: just his ability to get in out of cuts a

468
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 16: different way than maybe another receiver, right, being able to

469
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 16: understand that and sorry about that, build that, Uh, timing

470
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 16: up with guys. But then also when you operate within

471
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 16: the offense, Uh, you just want it to be You

472
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 16: wanna be consistent. And I think I've found consistency in

473
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 16: that by you know, calling a play in the huddle,

474
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 16: getting to the line of scrimmage.

475
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 6: How does it look?

476
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 16: How do we operate within that so it's consistent, not

477
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 16: through one quarterback.

478
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: But all Offensive coordinator Tommy Reese discusses what he's watching

479
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: for in the Browns quarterback competition this week.

480
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 11: How easy is it sometimes at least we're on the

481
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 11: outside to overreact to what you know, finally getting live

482
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 11: reps against another team, How easy is it? And how

483
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 11: much you have to caution against too much overreaction to

484
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 11: what happens to the Wednesday or Friday.

485
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's human nature.

486
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 20: But from the very first day we met as an offense,

487
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,479
Speaker 20: our messaging has been let's be as process driven as possible. Right,

488
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 20: Let's not look at results positive or negative, and let's

489
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 20: just try to stay in the focus of are we

490
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 20: doing the right things at each position to give ourselves

491
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 20: a chance to be successful. So I think if our players,

492
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 20: our coaches can stay within that framework and that mentality

493
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 20: of hey, let's just focus on the process or our

494
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 20: guys doing the right things that will lead to success,

495
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 20: then hopefully we can avoid any overreactions and save all

496
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 20: the overreactions for you guys, and we'll stay in our

497
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 20: target inside of our building.

498
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 8: You plan for how you're gonna roll out the four

499
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 8: qbs in the preseason.

500
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 20: Game, Yeah, we're working through it, obviously, depending on who's

501
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 20: available and whatnot. But yeah, we have a plan in place,

502
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 20: and we're looking forward to those guys getting the opportunities

503
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 20: to work.

504
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 5: You're talked a lot about boss here.

505
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 14: In the first couple of weeks of camp.

506
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 5: At what point do the results.

507
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 8: Still start to master?

508
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 6: Yeah?

509
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 20: I mean, I think when you're focused on the process,

510
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 20: the results start to show themselves. And you feel that

511
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 20: in a certain progression as you go through camp, right

512
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 20: first seven or eight days, you're in an install mode

513
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 20: where you're trying to install offense regardless of what you're

514
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 20: really seeing defensively, and defensively, you're trying to install your

515
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 20: stuff regardless of what you're seeing on offense. And then

516
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 20: once you kind of get past that install phase, you

517
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,479
Speaker 20: start focusing, all right, this is who we believe we

518
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 20: can be, this is what fits our team, this is

519
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 20: what fits our personnel, and then you start to build

520
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 20: off of that, and that's when you want to see

521
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 20: the results follow because the process has been laid Hey

522
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,399
Speaker 20: to mean, just lo'll.

523
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 21: Get you at it.

524
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 2: It looks like Dylan game ruggs strongly, So how do

525
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 2: you assess the way that that he's having this camp?

526
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean, I think all four of our guys

527
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 20: have had really positive days and have had some days

528
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,479
Speaker 20: where they've not practiced as well as they want to. Certainly,

529
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 20: you're gonna see great days from guys and they're gonna

530
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 20: bounce back the next day and maybe not be as

531
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 20: as polish as we'd want them to be. But we

532
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 20: try to evaluate camp and practices and the off season

533
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 20: in a in a totality and not just trying to

534
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 20: look at one day at a time.

535
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 3: Did you guys.

536
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 4: Maybe dodge a little bit of a bullet with Shador

537
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 4: Sanders knowing that there's no soreness that's gonna linger with him,

538
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 4: and that also, how have you seen him developed.

539
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 9: Since the start?

540
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 20: Yeah, we expect you door to be practicing and every

541
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 20: day he's out there, he you know, has the opportunity

542
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 20: to grow and grow within the offense and get him

543
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 20: more comfortable. So keep coaching him, keep getting him ready

544
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 20: to be out there and participate. But progression is really

545
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 20: important for all of our guys, especially the young ones,

546
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 20: and really this whole rookie class is starting to progress

547
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 20: the way that we need him to.

548
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 8: I'm a pick it the other day, express concern.

549
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 9: Even three days.

550
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 22: Off for him, he set him back and what he's

551
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 22: ink ald in can he.

552
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 9: Make up that time?

553
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, we know Kenny.

554
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 20: You know he had a good first four practices there

555
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 20: and had a good offseason. So we know Kenny, we

556
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 20: know his strengths. He's chomping at the bit to be

557
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 20: out there and you know, like we talked about hey

558
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 20: better now than you know, butting up into the front

559
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,959
Speaker 20: end of the season. So we just got to get

560
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 20: him healthy and he's very into it mentally right now.

561
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 20: He's doing a great job with the rest of the

562
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 20: guys in the room, and he's starting to progress throwing

563
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 20: the ball and doing some things. So we're excited to

564
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 20: get him back when he's healthy.

565
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 9: With the game knock there, what do you think about.

566
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 20: Especially the teams, Yeah, they're maximizing their opportunities, right. We

567
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 20: get a chance to evaluate those guys with extended amount

568
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 20: of carries and what schemes fit them the best, and

569
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 20: how we balance those and how we continue to get

570
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 20: him to grow in the others. But both guys are

571
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,040
Speaker 20: competing at a high level and doing a nice job.

572
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 5: Forks go or do you find yourself for doing wards

573
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 5: towards cat schemes this year for one game?

574
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,479
Speaker 7: You know, we want to have a good balance.

575
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 20: We want to be as diverse in the run game

576
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 20: to keep a defense off base as we can, and

577
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 20: Coach Bloomgreen is gonna have done a great job with

578
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 20: those not just the line but the personnel and figuring

579
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 20: out what fits our runners, and you know, the whole

580
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 20: staff has put together a plan where we can present

581
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 20: a lot of different challenges to a defense to keep

582
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 20: them off balance. But we know the direction we're going

583
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 20: and we feel pretty confident in that it's such.

584
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 11: A first real exposure up close to Flaco here when

585
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 11: he's here, he is.

586
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 7: No, I'm not surprised.

587
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 20: I mean, you guys have all seen like Freddy Couple

588
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 20: swing a golf club. It's kind of like when he

589
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 20: throws a football, kind of looks like that. Right, It's

590
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 20: just he was given an incredible grift to throw the

591
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 20: football and UH fortunate to have him around. Tommy, How

592
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 20: can you, as the offense who are made or designed,

593
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 20: plan whatever it would mean to neutralize that UH.

594
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 8: Are taking that Dylan gave lep being so short?

595
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 5: How do you as often according to your account.

596
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 20: And syncty that, Yeah, you do things. There's they're small

597
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 20: tweaks you can do to help any quarterback. Right, some

598
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 20: guys feel more comfortable under center, some guys feel more

599
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 20: comfortable in the gun.

600
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 7: Some guys are comfortable with schemes. So put Dylan aside.

601
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 20: No matter who the quarterback is, there's gonna be things

602
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 20: that you can tweak that are easy changes to put

603
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 20: them in the most comfortable s uh position that that

604
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 20: they can go out and operate with.

605
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 8: Do you feel like.

606
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,640
Speaker 4: Kenny, especially if he can work his way back into

607
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 4: a couple of the team drills.

608
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 7: Even if he's just in the pocket over right over.

609
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 4: The next week, do you feel like he still has

610
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 4: a legitimate chance to stay firmly in the mixt You

611
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 4: have enough time to get him back.

612
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 6: Yeah.

613
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 20: We're excited to get Kenny back and healthy and get

614
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 20: him competing. You know, there's no set timetable, and when

615
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 20: Kenny's healthy and out there, we're excited to get him back.

616
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 11: Sure, there's a lot of throwing before and after practice

617
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 11: because it's reps in with the sore arm.

618
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 9: He studies had a history of that. They you guys

619
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 9: scale that.

620
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 20: Back that Yeah, that's up to you know, that's not

621
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 20: my expertise when it comes to the medical side of

622
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 20: the arm. There's been conversations about routine and what gets

623
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 20: us warm and what gets us ready. And I feel

624
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 20: pretty confident in the in the plan in place to

625
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,479
Speaker 20: make sure that we can be readily available in practice.

626
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I know there's such a emphasis it felt

627
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 2: like a recommitment to the run game. Does that change

628
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: at all when you know the number thirty six pick

629
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 2: isn't here and we don't know when we're back, and assuming.

630
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 20: He was going to be you know main Yeah, the

631
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 20: run game takes eleven guys, right, So to just say, hey,

632
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 20: one guy's not here, got to scrap that, That's that's

633
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 20: not our mentality at all, right. I mean, to truly

634
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 20: be a great running team, you need the wide outs,

635
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 20: you need the quarterbacks, you need everybody to be bought

636
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 20: into it. So we feel confident in our ability right

637
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 20: now of how we're running it and who we're putting

638
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 20: out there.

639
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 5: I mean, if all four quarterbacks are healthy, do you

640
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 5: expect them all to play.

641
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 9: That first preseason game.

642
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 20: I'll leave that up to coach to answer those questions

643
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 20: about the rotation and where we're going in the preseason games.

644
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 23: You guys have ye sip you can see from the

645
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 23: rest of those guys.

646
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 5: To kind of shape out of what we want to do.

647
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 7: Yeah, consistently.

648
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 20: You know they talk all the time, get open, catch

649
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 20: the ball, and compete in the run game, and that's

650
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 20: their mantra, and that's what they're doing. You guys are

651
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 20: out here Saturday, I thought said had his best practice

652
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,919
Speaker 20: of camp, made a couple of really nice contested catches,

653
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 20: and he's doing so many things for us in a

654
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 20: totality standpoint of helping our offense. It was great to

655
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 20: see him get going a little bit, and we feel

656
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 20: really good about the pieces there and being able to

657
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 20: move guys to certain spots to maximize what they do.

658
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 20: But just keep going on the trajectory they're at and

659
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 20: we'll find ways to build them advantageous looks to get open.

660
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 7: I'm sorry, what do you think.

661
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 8: Of new camp that I'm ready?

662
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 6: Four?

663
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 9: Ever been? Yeah?

664
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 20: Gage has done a really nice shot, right, He's shown up.

665
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 20: He's competed, you know, from the day he stepped foot

666
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 20: with us in the offseason. He's knowing what to do

667
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 20: and knowing how to do it. And when you put

668
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 20: in that work, good results as you follow. I know

669
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 20: it was one practice work and said the d line,

670
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 20: who's living in a backfield? Yeah, overall, how do you

671
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 20: think you're lying? I know it's more than life, but

672
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 20: the line's done.

673
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 7: Yeah.

674
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 8: In the run, you know, the runs inside runes.

675
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 20: Yeah, Coach Bloom's done a great job with those guys.

676
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 20: Those guys are completely bought in.

677
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 6: You know.

678
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 20: It's funny and once you put on pads, it's crazy

679
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 20: how much easier it is to block.

680
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 7: Right.

681
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 20: So we just got to continue to focus on the

682
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 20: fundamentals and work like it is so important that those

683
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 20: guys get as many reps together as possible, right, Like

684
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 20: the communication, the nuance of passing things off. It takes

685
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 20: a lot of time and repetition, and so that's where

686
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 20: our focus is. And look, they love the when we're

687
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 20: able to move the ball and balance the run in

688
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 20: the past and not being a third and long situation.

689
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 20: So those guys are completely bought in, really pleased with

690
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,719
Speaker 20: the progression there. And again Bloom's done a great job

691
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 20: with that. So it's coach Wilkerson and Sanders who works

692
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 20: with them as well, So all three of them have

693
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 20: that have that group going in the right direction.

694
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 19: How do you think the Wan specifically has handled this

695
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 19: move and working on.

696
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 20: The west side and like along, yeah, dealing with you

697
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 20: see him get frustrated, but who doesn't, right, yeah, no, no,

698
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 20: And we put Dewan in challenging situations by design, right,

699
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 20: We give him help when we think we need to.

700
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 20: But look, he's continuing to progress. We you know, he's

701
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 20: worked really hard to get him to a place where

702
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 20: we feel like he can be out there for a

703
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 20: sustained amount of time. And he's progressing well, and he's

704
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 20: bought in, right, now and we have him working in

705
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 20: the right direction again. You know, my house wasn't exactly

706
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 20: out there the whole day Saturday, but but Dewan really

707
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 20: had a strong practice and every rep he does take

708
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 20: and every time he faces that success, it's really a

709
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 20: positive step for us as an offense. And again, please

710
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 20: with Dewan right now, just want to keep him in

711
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 20: the right place and keep moving forward and buying into

712
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 20: the technique. Can't here, Yeah, no, Harold's He's moved around

713
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 20: all over the place for us, catches everything. You know,

714
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 20: you saw it on his college film how much he

715
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 20: competes in the run game and has value there.

716
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 7: So you know it's termed far as a rookie goes.

717
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 20: He's really done everything we've asked and we've put a

718
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 20: lot on his plate and excited about where he is

719
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 20: in his progression right now.

720
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 2: Have you see Deanty Johnson make strides and as we've

721
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 2: gone deeper into camp.

722
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 20: Yeah, you know, I think for Tay was, hey, get back,

723
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 20: we gotta get back into playing shape, get back in

724
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 20: the playbook. And you know, every day he's been here,

725
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 20: the comfort level seems to grow, and his relationship with

726
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 20: the quarterbacks and the players seem to grow. And look,

727
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 20: when you wrap as many guys as you do, sometimes

728
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 20: you lose the timing that you build the rapport of.

729
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 20: So all those reps, all those throws are valuable for

730
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 20: us right now. And Tays certainly done a nice job.

731
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 11: One of developing that poor and how important is it

732
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 11: to in the next week or so kind of whittle

733
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 11: that that rotation down at quarterbacks so that these guys

734
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 11: can't guys like Jerry and beyond the hens started developing

735
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 11: a hole with whoever.

736
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 7: Might be though.

737
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 20: Yeah, that'll continue to progress this camp goes on, and

738
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 20: you know we'll have plenty of throws and reps over

739
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 20: the next but is it four weeks to make sure

740
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 20: that we're ready to go?

741
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 7: Come you know early September you coached and.

742
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 6: Year.

743
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, are you pleased with us care for year? Yeah? Yeah?

744
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 7: I think he's had one drop so far.

745
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 20: And you know, Dave's done a nice job of getting

746
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 20: back and being ready to go and really bought in

747
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 20: right now, really love where his mentality is. And he's

748
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 20: doing so many positive things for our offense right now,

749
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 20: and you know we need him as a leader and

750
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 20: as a proven player to continue on that stride.

751
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 5: Is he even bigger than he was last year?

752
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 4: I mean it looks he almost looks like he's blacked up.

753
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 7: A little bit to help in the blocking game, or yeah,

754
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 7: I think maybe, yeah, maybe not.

755
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz talks about how Denzel Ward is

756
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: the best cornerback he's ever coached.

757
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 8: It's more of a general.

758
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 9: Question about your philosophy.

759
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 11: Worked for Bill and Nick here, you go to Baltimore,

760
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 11: you work for Marvin. You know, how do all those

761
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 11: philosophies sort of come together to form you know, this

762
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 11: the philosophy you've kind of come to say.

763
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 5: I don't say as your own, but it's the one

764
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 5: that's attributed.

765
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 6: So much to you.

766
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 9: Yeah, you do.

767
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 10: You take a little bit from coaches that you've met

768
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 10: along the way, not just in schemes, but just in

769
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 10: ways they handle situations, ways they organize, ways they organized.

770
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 9: Their staff, the way they deal with players.

771
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 10: You know, you're watching, like, hey, that was really good

772
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 10: the way Marvin did this, or hey, the way you

773
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 10: know Bill did that. If I'm ever in that situation,

774
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 10: I'll do the same thing. I think. Scheme wise, though,

775
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 10: it probably comes more just from success and failure in

776
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 10: the in the league, you know, And I was I

777
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 10: was telling somebody before. A lot of what we built

778
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 10: with the defensive front came when I was at Tennessee

779
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 10: and we had the challenge of facing Gary Kubiak's Texans,

780
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 10: which were wide zone and stretch, and Peyton Manning which

781
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 10: was wide zone and those heavy play actions in quick passes,

782
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 10: and then Jacksonville, which was a heavy, heavy power run game.

783
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 9: And you know, there's no greater teacher in this league

784
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 9: than failure.

785
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 10: Right, you know, And we spent a lot of time

786
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 10: on learning, like what doesn't work, and then you sort

787
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 10: of refine and you're like, okay, that works. Plus you know,

788
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 10: things sort of roll back, you know, like mobile quarterback. Well,

789
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 10: you've already had Michael Vick. So the next time whatever

790
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,400
Speaker 10: Lamar Jackson comes, it's like, well, I knew how to

791
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 10: get my buck beat beat by Michael Vick. Let's try

792
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 10: to change some of those some of those things. So

793
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 10: it's it's i'd say probably fifty to fifty in schemes

794
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 10: and taking things from different coaches, whether it's you know,

795
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 10: organization or or dealing with the players or dealing with

796
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 10: the other coaches, and then also just experiencing the league

797
00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 10: playing those other things. So go ahead, I'm sorry, what

798
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 10: did they do? Yeah, both of those guys are are

799
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 10: really doing well. I mean, let's let's not put him

800
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 10: in the Hall of Fame yet. They're both rookies. But

801
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 10: I'll start with Mace. Mace has really made a tremendous

802
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 10: turnaround in his body composition. I don't know if you

803
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,919
Speaker 10: guys have noticed it, but it's it's it's been significant

804
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 10: from the time he got here after the draft to

805
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 10: the shape he's in now. He's his metrics are like

806
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 10: much much improved. He's running a lot faster, and there

807
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 10: was an adjustment. He played a red scheme where he

808
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 10: was hunkering at the line of scrimmage, so he didn't

809
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 10: get a chance to make a lot of sacks or

810
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 10: those tackles for losses, even though he's really productive in

811
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 10: what he did. So not only was he sort of

812
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 10: changing his body composition, but he was like learning a

813
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 10: whole new way to play defense, which is attack. And

814
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 10: there's been, you know, some setbacks along the way. But

815
00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 10: the thing with Mace is he's taken two steps forward

816
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 10: for every one step back he's taken. So he's gaining

817
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 10: ground and you're starting to see him make more plays.

818
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 10: I think it was Friday he had one of the

819
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 10: best rushes he's had in practice. He just it was

820
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 10: a b gap rush and it was just beating the

821
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 10: guard with speed. Nothing fancy about it, but that was

822
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,439
Speaker 10: something that we really had to see in a lot

823
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 10: of you know, back in OTAs.

824
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 9: And in May so been happy with him.

825
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 10: There's still gonna be some adjustment anybody that's going to

826
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 10: a new scheme like that, there's going to be some

827
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 10: one step forward, two steps or two steps forward one

828
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:35,839
Speaker 10: step back.

829
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 9: But as long as it's not one step forward one step.

830
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,359
Speaker 10: Back, he's making progress and really excited to see him

831
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 10: against some other competition and then see him in some

832
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 10: games and seeing that translate. You know, we could we

833
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 10: could be a long time talking about Carson because he

834
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 10: you know, with Jordan Nick's retirement, you know, it really

835
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 10: accelerated his timeline of getting him. But everything we've had

836
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 10: from him, not only has he been able to do,

837
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 10: but he's he's done a better job than, you know,

838
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 10: than maybe what we expected. He's got great size, he's

839
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 10: got great quickness, he's got great speed, he's got great instincts,

840
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 10: and he's made just as many mistakes as any other.

841
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 9: Rookie, but he has not made any repeat mistakes.

842
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 10: And I think you guys have seen some of the

843
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 10: physicality that he's brought to our practices.

844
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 9: His communication is as much improved.

845
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 10: A college guy coming in is a different communication than

846
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 10: in college because a lot of colleges they look over

847
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 10: for the signal.

848
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 9: Nobody really says anything here. He's, you know, a rookie.

849
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 10: He's he's got to command the huddle, he's got to

850
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 10: make calls and and do a lot more more things

851
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 10: like that, and he's he's he's excelled in all those things.

852
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 10: Really really excited for him, and I'm really happy to

853
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 10: have both of those guys.

854
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 19: You guys lost more numbers. And last week, obviously to that,

855
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 19: Achilles said, what were your hopes for him this year?

856
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 16: Uh?

857
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:02,760
Speaker 8: What's your kind of playing tough?

858
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 10: Yeah, Martin means a lot to us, and I I

859
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,759
Speaker 10: thought he was really primed for a comeback year.

860
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 9: You know, he was, he was in great shade.

861
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 10: He he was he was hungry, his attitude was great,

862
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 10: and unfortunately he had the injury.

863
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 9: We have a veteran like Greg Newsom that's played inside

864
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 9: and outside, but.

865
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 10: We'll put a little bit more on Greg. But Greg's

866
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 10: Gregg's you know, been played a lot of football for US.

867
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 10: So it's really just gonna open up a lot more

868
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 10: for Nickel, competition for n U, the third outside corner competition,

869
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 10: those kind of things. So you know it, Uh, there's it.

870
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 10: There's good competition there, and we need some guys to

871
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 10: be able to step in.

872
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,719
Speaker 16: So Greg gona ask you the repof fact to kind

873
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 16: of lose it Mark members as he kind of just

874
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 16: glass that THEO.

875
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 10: So who was taking the lead on that inside Well,

876
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 10: inside we have we have we have two veteran players

877
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 10: for US, one a veteran meaning young vets, cam And

878
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 10: and Miles.

879
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 9: You know, and they're they're really just working through.

880
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 10: Just like everybody else, just being consistent, being physical and

881
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 10: playing with a great effort. And you know, s somebody,

882
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,240
Speaker 10: somebody's gonna end up taking that job, and it's gonna

883
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 10: be based on the body of work from training camp

884
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 10: and pre season and all those other things. But we

885
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,399
Speaker 10: play a lot of dbs, so we'll need all those

886
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 10: guys as we go.

887
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 5: As as you talked.

888
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 7: About Carson, I guess I'm curious if you ever had.

889
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 9: A rookie be like a.

890
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 8: Defense in your career and then all of that with

891
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 8: Jordan's gone, you.

892
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 7: Know you're maybe st is it all on Carson is

893
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 7: sort of.

894
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 9: Assume that leadership role or you're seeing that.

895
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 8: Sort of spread. Uh uh.

896
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 10: The leadership stuff will will come from playing good and

897
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 10: and you know, preparing well and earning the respect of

898
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 10: his teammates. You know, that's th That's something that you

899
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 10: don't just like it's not a switch you you hit,

900
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 10: or it's just not a card you get a now

901
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 10: now you're a leader.

902
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 9: It comes, I mean, y P.

903
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 10: People respect preparation, they respect hard work, they respect communication,

904
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 10: they respect good play.

905
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:22,280
Speaker 9: On the field.

906
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 10: If he does those things, leadership leadership will take care

907
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 10: of itself.

908
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 9: What was the other part of it?

909
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 4: A rookie name?

910
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, I've had a j I've multiple rookies.

911
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 10: Last one I had was probably Presston Brown in Buffalo

912
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 10: who was a third or fourth round pick and made

913
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 10: all the calls and was outstanding.

914
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 9: I mean, it's you know it, it's something those guys

915
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 9: can do.

916
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,920
Speaker 4: When you talk to why else he has a site

917
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 4: center as a player result in to Hi also to

918
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 4: to get you guys into yourself to have your best.

919
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 8: Player on the team talking like that.

920
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, congratuations on Bill known if that's fantastic. Got I

921
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,800
Speaker 10: got to meet him back when I was sort of

922
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 10: in the scouting world, legend legend guy, but uh, congratulations

923
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 10: on that.

924
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:16,320
Speaker 9: Miles.

925
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 10: We we sort of go as a defense as Miles goes,

926
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:20,800
Speaker 10: you know, the right of the pack determined by the

927
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 10: lead dog. And we played good on defense when Miles

928
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 10: is playing good. So I think setting that standard means

929
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 10: a lot defensive player to the year he's been that.

930
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 9: I think all our guys have been challenged to take

931
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 9: another step.

932
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 10: If you're on the practice squad trying to earn a

933
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 10: spot on the roster, if you were on the roster

934
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 10: trying to earn a play time or starting spot, you're

935
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 10: a starter trying to elevate to a Pro Bowl status,

936
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 10: you know. I I really think the next step from

937
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 10: Miles is not defensive player to year he's sort of

938
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 10: been there, done That.

939
00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 9: Next step for him is MVP candidate MM And you.

940
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,399
Speaker 10: Know, if we're playing good on defense and he's he's

941
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 10: at the heart of that, I think he's in that

942
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 10: conversation he is a obviously a marked man in every game,

943
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,320
Speaker 10: sees doubles people. You know, we move him around. He

944
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 10: still wears number ninety five, right, and he still looks

945
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 10: like he does so it's easy for opponents to find him.

946
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:29,320
Speaker 10: But my definition of a great player is when the

947
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 10: opponent says, we're taking this guy out, this guy is

948
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 10: not going to beat us, and he can still have

949
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 10: that production and that effectiveness. I think it sets a big,

950
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 10: big standard and a big statement. And I would say

951
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 10: we also have to be better around bombs, right, and

952
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 10: we have to be able to win one on ones

953
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 10: in pass rush when he does get doubled, because that'll

954
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 10: help if we can win those one on ones. And

955
00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,320
Speaker 10: the offense says, well, we can't afford to put so

956
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 10: much tension and on Miles because this guy is wearing

957
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 10: us out or these other guys are wearing us out.

958
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 10: Then it opens things up. So we need that sort

959
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 10: of one plus one equals three to some of your

960
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 10: The some is greater than the individual parts, and I

961
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 10: think that's a challenge for us.

962
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 13: Also, Jimmy howsn't we thought about Kevin's Stefanski last week,

963
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 13: and he made a point to emphasize Kevin's age only

964
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 13: four forty three, the idea of being, you know, still

965
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 13: a young coach with the of room to develop.

966
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 5: You've been around a lot of the great coaches in

967
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 5: your time.

968
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,720
Speaker 19: Where do you see Kevin on the on his professional

969
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 19: development curve right now?

970
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 9: Oh? I don't worry about that. He's the he's he

971
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 9: he's a head coach. I have so much respect for Kevin.

972
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 9: He's he's so even yea U.

973
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,800
Speaker 10: I think everybody has a little different style, right Like

974
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 10: I'm I'm a little bit more emotional. I'm a little

975
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 10: bit more like where your where your emotions on your

976
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 10: sleeve and things like that. And just the thing I

977
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,800
Speaker 10: respect about Kevin is just how even keeled he is.

978
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:57,399
Speaker 10: And if you want, if you want teams to play well,

979
00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 10: you need a lot of different ways to touch it.

980
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 10: And I think Kevin just just that that steady you know,

981
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 10: like if if you ever, if you ever on a sailboat,

982
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 10: you know you don't look just in the immediate.

983
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:12,880
Speaker 9: Front of the sailboat.

984
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 10: You keep your eye on the horizon and you wanna

985
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 10: stand that true course, I think Kevin just exemplifies that.

986
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 11: There's always at scenes in train to camp generally and

987
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 11: you're in your third year, guys in their third so

988
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 11: so understandable.

989
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,959
Speaker 9: I guess with the quarterback deals, can.

990
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 11: You evaluate in your own mind does this look like the.

991
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 9: Real deal or do you have to be shown? Yeah?

992
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, well, I mean I think you do see good signs, right,

993
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 10: and you're looking for communication, and you're looking for individual effort,

994
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 10: and you're looking for things like that.

995
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 9: But when it's all said and done, it's got to

996
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 9: be on the field, you.

997
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,839
Speaker 10: Know, and and what happens in training camp that can

998
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,360
Speaker 10: be good signs, and that can sort of lead you

999
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 10: in a direction. But until you until you do it

1000
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 10: on the field, and you do it consistently on the field,

1001
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 10: that's I I That's all it is. It is just

1002
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 10: a good a good sign. So we're we're focused on

1003
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 10: trying to improve every day and those things to set

1004
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 10: us up. Like again, like y, you can't you can't

1005
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 10: start at the end of the journey. You can't say, hey,

1006
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 10: we're we wanna be a great defense, because then you

1007
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,399
Speaker 10: lose the day to day. You gotta say, hey, look,

1008
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 10: let's go out and and make make progress today. Let's

1009
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:38,760
Speaker 10: go attack this day and learn from my mistakes. Let's

1010
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 10: emphasize our talent. Let's compete, and if you do those things,

1011
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,960
Speaker 10: you do those things consistently, then you'll, you know, you'll

1012
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 10: you'll get to where you wanna go.

1013
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 9: But this time of the year, we're really just trying

1014
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 9: to keep our eyes on on what's there that day

1015
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 9: and and not worry about a whole lot other than that.

1016
00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 8: It would like just go more and Z and.

1017
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 4: A level which I don't even know if so what

1018
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,879
Speaker 4: but uh, and then he's also any for NFL as.

1019
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 10: A player to yourself, what, Yeah, he's a He's I

1020
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 10: I've always admired Denzel as a player when when I've

1021
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 10: been on other teams and just the way he goes

1022
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 10: about doing his things is is just impressive to see

1023
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,320
Speaker 10: to see up close. They knew some guys that have

1024
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 10: coached him in the past that they you know, they said, like,

1025
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 10: you're gonna love Denzel, and I certainly do.

1026
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 9: I've had some good corners in the past.

1027
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 10: He's probably the best corner I've had in thirty some

1028
00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 10: years in the thirty some years in the NFL. The

1029
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 10: thing I like about Denzel is just how consistent he

1030
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,839
Speaker 10: is with his preparation. He never phones in a performance.

1031
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 10: He's making a big effort this year to be more physical.

1032
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 10: I put hands on cause he's he's such a great

1033
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 10: shadow guy, and he's working a little bit more now,

1034
00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 10: being a little more physical at the line of scrimmage,

1035
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:03,800
Speaker 10: give us a little bit more run support, and just sort.

1036
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 9: Of rounding out some other parts of the game.

1037
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 10: When it's all said and done, the biggest thing is

1038
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 10: he just needs to finish so those pbu's with i nts.

1039
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 10: You know, he was so so productive and in getting

1040
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 10: pbu's last year, but left a lot of meat on

1041
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 10: the bone. And you know, the third down stop that's

1042
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:24,239
Speaker 10: a that's a PBu becomes a game changing play when

1043
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 10: it's an I n T. And that's probably the biggest

1044
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 10: thing for him to really make that next step because

1045
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 10: there were really opportunities there. He knows that, and you know,

1046
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,960
Speaker 10: the finishing the play thing when he does that will

1047
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,479
Speaker 10: be uh, you know, we'll be in a really good spot.

1048
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 9: On defense.

1049
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 19: We see him matched up with like Carol Center, So

1050
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 19: I mean he can match up with any size, any speed,

1051
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 19: Like how unique is that in the corner for him

1052
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 19: to basically just be able to match up again.

1053
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:54,440
Speaker 9: Say, well, you know he does it with his own style.

1054
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,760
Speaker 10: I think the biggest thing with him is he doesn't

1055
00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 10: really change his style for which whether it's Chirr, Judy

1056
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 10: or Tilley or or Harold or you know, maybe even Joku.

1057
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 10: He he gets out there sometimes with with him, he

1058
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 10: just works on his own craft. He's he We've used

1059
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,359
Speaker 10: him to match different receivers, play right and left. We've

1060
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 10: switched him in camp a little bit here and there,

1061
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 10: you know, So I don't I don't know that it's

1062
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 10: that it's unusual in your corner. Over the course of

1063
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,280
Speaker 10: seventeen plus games, there's gonna be a lot of different

1064
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 10: kind of matchups, you know.

1065
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 9: I mean we open with Jamar Chase and.

1066
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:42,879
Speaker 10: Okay, now Higgins, Yeah, my my Tennessee basketball guy, mister

1067
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 10: basketball in Tennessee as a high school player. Com I mean,

1068
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 10: like Jamar is not a small receiver, but he's got

1069
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 10: s quickness of a smaller guy.

1070
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 9: And t.

1071
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 10: Higg is just so big and it's just a different style.

1072
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 10: But you know, so he's gonna have challenge right out

1073
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 10: the gate. So well, we'll get exposure to all that

1074
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 10: stuff in camp.

1075
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 23: Do you think you talk about during ots in many

1076
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 23: campus improving their down percentage in the takeaways aspect of even.

1077
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 22: Where we are in camp right now, how do you

1078
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 22: see you guys kind of embody that.

1079
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,799
Speaker 23: Mentality to improve those areas and they kind of what's

1080
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 23: been done, what are they focus on?

1081
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, probably the biggest thing with with takeaways has been

1082
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 10: us attacking the ball. I mean, I think it's pretty

1083
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 10: obviously anybody's watched. You see nine guys attacking the ball

1084
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 10: and number one. That helps us and we've gotten some

1085
00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 10: loose balls that way. But also it helps our offensive guys.

1086
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 10: If we're attacking the ball and being so productive there

1087
00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 10: forces them to have better ball security, So that works

1088
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 10: hand in hand training camp, a lot of times it

1089
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 10: is hard to read for interceptions because so many interceptions

1090
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 10: come from a quarterback either thrown before he wanted to

1091
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,800
Speaker 10: or getting hit when he's thrown thrown, or making a mistake.

1092
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,320
Speaker 10: And in training camp, when you're not hitting the quarterback,

1093
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 10: and those guys know they're not gonna hit, they generally

1094
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 10: don't make those kind of mistakes.

1095
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,759
Speaker 9: So you know that that that'll just be more.

1096
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 10: But we we have sort of emphasized a little bit

1097
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 10: more of a playmaker attitude, so taking some calculative risks

1098
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 10: here and there, and hopefully that'll show up on the

1099
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 10: field along with the the ball disruption attempts that we've tried.

1100
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 9: Each other.

1101
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:30,200
Speaker 14: That's what you noticed with uh Isaiah and Alex or

1102
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:31,160
Speaker 14: how they pressed them along.

1103
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 12: How much have they embrace kind of competition under themselves.

1104
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 10: Yeah, we have great competition at at defensive defensive end

1105
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 10: in particular.

1106
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 9: We got a lot of guys that have started a

1107
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:42,720
Speaker 9: lot of games in the NFL.

1108
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 10: You mentioned Zay, you mentioned Alex put put camp, Thomas

1109
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 10: out there who's had an outstanding camp, but Julian out there,

1110
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 10: who's had an outstanding camp.

1111
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 9: kJ new to us. He may have played the other day,

1112
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 9: he's been physical for us.

1113
00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,880
Speaker 10: All those guys are gonna play in the NFL, and

1114
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 10: it's gonna make us better the competition that they bring

1115
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 10: because they got to be on their game every day

1116
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,839
Speaker 10: or somebody else is going to be. So we want

1117
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 10: to see physicality out of those guys. Those guys you

1118
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 10: mentioned are both physical players for us. They had to

1119
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 10: play in practice the other day where he literally took

1120
00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 10: three blockers and knocked them back into the backfield.

1121
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 9: It was a tackle for a loss.

1122
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,359
Speaker 10: On a play when we're doing that when we're being

1123
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 10: disruptive up front, we're gonna get those lost yards plays.

1124
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:28,360
Speaker 9: We're gonna be around the quarterback.

1125
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 10: But you know, if you're if if you're just somebody

1126
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 10: coming out to watch practice, that competition is something to

1127
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,359
Speaker 10: watch because, like you roll through and we'll have our

1128
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 10: our end of practice extra reps. We'll have guys that

1129
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,920
Speaker 10: are running thirteam. I really don't care what group you're running.

1130
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 10: It it's all about getting reps. But you're seeing veteran

1131
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 10: players in those that are out there trying to improve

1132
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:56,239
Speaker 10: and and trying to prove themselves. I think it's outstanding

1133
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 10: for us and I'm i'm I'm excited to watch all

1134
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 10: those guys playing route for all of them, And like

1135
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 10: I said, I think all those guys will end up

1136
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 10: on teams and probably all getting significant playtime this year.

1137
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 1: Up next, special teams coordinator Bubba vent Tron talks about

1138
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: some rule changes that may affect the kickoff.

1139
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 11: How big is this week for you guys, both the

1140
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,920
Speaker 11: practice and the game to just finally be able to

1141
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 11: see live your group specifically, we.

1142
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,799
Speaker 21: Were talking about that today with the specialists. It's it'll

1143
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 21: be nice for us to be able to compete against

1144
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 21: a different team rather than just going against each other

1145
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:34,320
Speaker 21: in practice.

1146
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 22: So excited for the opportunity to go down there to

1147
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 22: Carolina and compete. Honestly, it's been like the theme of

1148
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 22: this whole campus compete.

1149
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 2: And we talked about ramping up the intensity and the

1150
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 2: urgency and then we see live tackling the first time,

1151
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:52,800
Speaker 2: I think under Kevin here, So have you seen what

1152
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:56,240
Speaker 2: you've wanted to in that aspect during the first whatever

1153
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 2: week was a camp?

1154
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 21: Yeah, And I think you know, coaches delivered a clear

1155
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 21: and concise message to our team that we need to

1156
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,360
Speaker 21: play harder, we need to practice harder, we need to

1157
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 21: we need to do things like we're gonna do in

1158
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 21: the game. And I think that being able to go

1159
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 21: live and control that control that period on how we're tackling.

1160
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 21: You know, you don't see you're not seeing a lot

1161
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 21: of load tackles in that period. Obviously we're staying away

1162
00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 21: from the quarterback, taking care of each other where and

1163
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 21: and still playing at a high, high speed and getting

1164
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:29,320
Speaker 21: guys on the ground.

1165
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:30,839
Speaker 22: So it's been good.

1166
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 12: How much easier, maybe easier of that were with the

1167
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 12: kick returns this year instead of last year of first

1168
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 12: year and being all new.

1169
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:40,840
Speaker 9: In terms of practice.

1170
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,880
Speaker 21: Yeah, last year we were just trying to figure out

1171
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 21: the play, you know, and I would say everybody in

1172
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 21: the league has a much better grasp on everything that

1173
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:51,879
Speaker 21: goes into that play.

1174
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,840
Speaker 22: And obviously they made the adjustment to have.

1175
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 21: The touch back to the thirty five, So that's obviously

1176
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:00,440
Speaker 21: gonna impact the play and we're to see a lot

1177
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:01,239
Speaker 21: more return balls.

1178
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:05,239
Speaker 5: You think the process for evaluating to kick your.

1179
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:10,240
Speaker 21: Positions this year, Yeah, I mean in in any position,

1180
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 21: especially that position, you want consistency, you know, the consistency

1181
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 21: inconsistency with the results. So I think that that's gonna

1182
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:20,719
Speaker 21: be a big, big part of the evaluation here in

1183
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 21: the next few weeks.

1184
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:25,319
Speaker 5: You guys have like a consultant, uh, evaluate with where

1185
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:25,759
Speaker 5: is it just.

1186
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 22: How No, it's just it's just whoever's here?

1187
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1188
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 8: Special teams coach for the first two preseason games.

1189
00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 9: Like the Super Bowl.

1190
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 22: In in in terms of.

1191
00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 8: Get out there and you're putting guys in speed situations.

1192
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,880
Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean a lot of the the preseason is

1193
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 21: it's it's challenging because there's so many substitutions that that occur.

1194
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,760
Speaker 21: Some guys are on like, uh, if they're playing offensive defense,

1195
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 21: they may play like ten to fifteen snaps. So then

1196
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 21: you gotta manage when that guy is gonna be able

1197
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 21: to factor for you. He may play only the first

1198
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,120
Speaker 21: quarter on some units, you're there's a lot of guys

1199
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 21: coming in and out, So we always hit on that

1200
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,600
Speaker 21: hard and harp on that to everyone. Be locked in,

1201
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 21: uh to what's going on in the game, the situation

1202
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 21: in the game, and then the players. The coaches need

1203
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 21: to have good communication with me and Kyle uh, so

1204
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 21: we can always have the right guys.

1205
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,880
Speaker 22: On the field executing, you know, at the best of

1206
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 22: their ability.

1207
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 18: So would you like it sounds like he's been an

1208
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,839
Speaker 18: interest moment once throughout any camp.

1209
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,520
Speaker 22: Yeah, what are you expecting?

1210
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 21: Yeah, he's been. He's been really good. He's he's been

1211
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 21: very consistent. His directional looks better than it has in

1212
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:41,000
Speaker 21: the past. I would say he's obviously got a very

1213
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,239
Speaker 21: explosive and powerful leg. I think being it for him,

1214
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,920
Speaker 21: being able to match the the hang times to the

1215
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 21: distances is important and eliminate the mishit balls and also

1216
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 21: the balls where we're hitting it too far with not

1217
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 21: enough hang. So I think that that's been a focus

1218
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 21: for him that he's done a really good job of

1219
00:55:58,719 --> 00:55:59,759
Speaker 21: in this early part of camp.

1220
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:04,400
Speaker 2: We can normal rep camp for Dustin so far, Like

1221
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 2: I don't remember, like Kevin said, there was one, but

1222
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 2: I remember a lot of team kicky periods. I know

1223
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 2: he's gonna kick myself.

1224
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:12,160
Speaker 8: But do you think is this been a normal camp

1225
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 8: for him?

1226
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:13,799
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1227
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:14,759
Speaker 22: I think, I mean, I think so.

1228
00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 21: We We've probably done a little bit more team stuff.

1229
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 21: We're gonna hit another team field goal period today with

1230
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,239
Speaker 21: both guys. But I kind of wanted to just get

1231
00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,800
Speaker 21: him a little bit more involved in the team setting.

1232
00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 21: So I think that I think that'll ultimately will help.

1233
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 5: Do you consider him with somebody in the competition right now?

1234
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 21: Everybody's in competition. Everybody's in competition. That's why we have

1235
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 21: all these numbers at every single position. So I think

1236
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 21: comp I mean everybody says this, but competition aut ultimately.

1237
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,799
Speaker 22: Brings out the best in everybody. It really does.

1238
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,359
Speaker 21: So when you're being pushed, you're probably gonna perform at

1239
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 21: a better at a higher level.

1240
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:52,000
Speaker 6: Uh.

1241
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 22: Balance shaping say it again.

1242
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 5: How's a pot return?

1243
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:57,719
Speaker 8: Balls? Shipping up? Good?

1244
00:56:58,000 --> 00:56:58,200
Speaker 6: Good?

1245
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 21: We We've got an we I would say we have

1246
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,719
Speaker 21: more ball handlers this year than we've had in the

1247
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,880
Speaker 21: last two years. We've we've got some young guys that

1248
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 21: we're gonna look at this upcoming week. Uh Luke will

1249
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 21: get some time back there. Kayden Davis will get some

1250
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 21: time back there.

1251
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 9: Uh.

1252
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,279
Speaker 22: So excited about the group we're working with.

1253
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 14: Basically between those two guys that we see the return feelings.

1254
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 5: All the time, it's basically between those two guys.

1255
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,440
Speaker 22: Well, you've got DC too, I mean, DC is the

1256
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:27,000
Speaker 22: main guy.

1257
00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 21: So those young guys, we wanna see what they can

1258
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 21: do and and they're gonna both play in the game and.

1259
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 22: Get reps what He's got a good little skill set.

1260
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 21: He's a little bit shorter than me, so I don't

1261
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 21: know if that's a that's a uh to his advantage,

1262
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 21: but he's tough. He's got definitely got a really good

1263
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:50,960
Speaker 21: short area quickness. He's got a pretty good feel for

1264
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 21: the techniques that we're trying to do. He's a tough kid.

1265
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,760
Speaker 21: So excited to see him play in the in the

1266
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 21: in the practice today, and then obviously in the game.

1267
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:02,240
Speaker 7: In terms of kick.

1268
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 12: Returns, you think we'll see more of the bounce kicks

1269
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:07,880
Speaker 12: this year in the landing area because that's when the.

1270
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 22: Point of engagement can be Unfortunately, Yeah, I do.

1271
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:16,560
Speaker 21: I wanted to push the the ball being short of

1272
00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 21: the landing zone to the fifty or the forty five,

1273
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:21,760
Speaker 21: and it's gonna stay at the forty for now.

1274
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 22: At least.

1275
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 21: I think that there's a chance that the play could

1276
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,440
Speaker 21: get messy. I'm hoping that that's not the case, but

1277
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 21: I think that if the touchback goes to the thirty

1278
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,880
Speaker 21: five talked about this in the spring. If the touchback

1279
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 21: goes to the thirty five yard line and the ball

1280
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 21: goes out of bounds, right, the ball goes to the

1281
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 21: forty So you're only losing five yards there. So is

1282
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 21: it advantageous to put the ball on the ground and

1283
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,960
Speaker 21: have a and have a potentially a better coverage play.

1284
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 9: Yeah, but.

1285
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,000
Speaker 22: It could go either way. I'm hoping that it doesn't

1286
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 22: go that way.

1287
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:57,000
Speaker 5: But what do you see out of Carson Switzer?

1288
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:58,840
Speaker 2: Jer And it looked like we were watching that one

1289
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 2: drill last week kind of find.

1290
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:00,959
Speaker 9: Of the end zone.

1291
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 22: Yeah, it looked like he had a couple of really

1292
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 22: good reps.

1293
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 21: Yeah, he's just a he's a super super smart kid.

1294
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 21: I mean, when I evaluated him. I was like, the

1295
00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 21: first thing that pops off the tape is he's so

1296
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,200
Speaker 21: instinctive and he just finds his way and has a

1297
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:20,440
Speaker 21: knack to get to the ball, really good at shedding blocks.

1298
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 22: He reads it out fast, he triggers faster than most.

1299
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 22: Love the kid.

1300
00:59:25,720 --> 00:59:28,520
Speaker 21: He's tough, He's got good size and length, so that

1301
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:32,440
Speaker 21: shows up a lot. And he's he's fast. I mean

1302
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 21: he can he covers ground, very very into everything that

1303
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 21: we're doing and open to do everything.

1304
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 8: So were you able to kind of you.

1305
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 11: Know, I don't know how much you watched the you know,

1306
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,680
Speaker 11: the Hall of Fame game and just yeah, I watched

1307
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,360
Speaker 11: the whole thing. How much just kind of knee jerk reactions.

1308
00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:51,960
Speaker 11: Were you able to kind of get initial reaction takeaways?

1309
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 11: Were you able to get from the adjusted kickoff watching

1310
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 11: it there and how they those two teams did it.

1311
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 5: Obviously you're gonna get more or data.

1312
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:05,640
Speaker 21: But just the data, yeah, there wasn't much, I would

1313
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,800
Speaker 21: say relative to the play in general, there wasn't a

1314
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 21: ton of difference from what we saw last year with

1315
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 21: the play. You're always using those early games in camp

1316
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,880
Speaker 21: to be able to show your players and use those

1317
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 21: as examples on good technique, bad technique. Okay, this is

1318
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,080
Speaker 21: a good run, this is a good play. You know,

1319
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 21: you saw the muff by one of the returners, Like,

1320
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,360
Speaker 21: we obviously don't want to do that, things like that

1321
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 21: to be able to correct. So I think that there's

1322
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:33,960
Speaker 21: a lot of things you can take from, especially the

1323
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 21: early games in training camp where you have a lot

1324
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,880
Speaker 21: where there's a lot of young players on the field.

1325
01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 2: So it was a Anthony Kendall ack guy that you'd

1326
01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 2: always kept an eye on as a potential like.

1327
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 21: Key, Yeah, he had a he had a productive rookie

1328
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:55,840
Speaker 21: season in Tennessee. Obviously, Raves was here last year. Ravees

1329
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,520
Speaker 21: liked them enough to keep him on that roster. He

1330
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:03,040
Speaker 21: got nicked up last year, so yeah, he's been He's

1331
01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 21: been a factor at the gunner position. He's fast, he's

1332
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 21: got some toughness. So yeah, he was a guy. He

1333
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 21: was a guy that we looked at whenever he was

1334
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:12,400
Speaker 21: coming out of college.

1335
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 1: Finally, head coach Kevin Stefanski talks about Hall of Famer

1336
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 1: Joe Thomas helping out the offensive line this week.

1337
01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 15: Okay, last day of open practice, so you know we're

1338
01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:26,160
Speaker 15: gonna miss our fans, but they've been terrific all camp.

1339
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:28,960
Speaker 15: It's our guys get a tremendous amount of juice from

1340
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 15: our fans. These young kids that are out here. It's

1341
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:34,360
Speaker 15: been a really a special few days out here.

1342
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 22: So that's a I want to.

1343
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 15: Acknowledge our fans first and foremost. Injury front, Miles will

1344
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 15: be back out here today. He's feeling good. Dylan Gabriel's

1345
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 15: dealing with a little bit of tightness in his hamstring,

1346
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:48,200
Speaker 15: so he'll be limited a bit and then Shador he's good,

1347
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:51,200
Speaker 15: you know, aposaur in his in his arm, his throwing shoulder,

1348
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:53,640
Speaker 15: but getting treatment and he should be fine.

1349
01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 8: Also, you're gonna.

1350
01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:57,480
Speaker 15: See we have a celebrity guest out here today coaching,

1351
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:00,080
Speaker 15: a guy named Joe Thomas will be helping out the

1352
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:04,040
Speaker 15: offensive lined. So anytime Joe's around and and we can

1353
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 15: mind him for everything he's worth worth, we're gonna do that.

1354
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 15: So he's back in the old line meeting rooms getting

1355
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:11,920
Speaker 15: his football fix and where we're happy to have him.

1356
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 15: But with that, I'll take any questions.

1357
01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 9: So no team drills for doing today or he will.

1358
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 8: He'll be limited. He'll be in some drills, but I

1359
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:23,240
Speaker 8: like Kenny, not yet ready to go, Kevin.

1360
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,360
Speaker 11: Have you made any final decision ready to announce what

1361
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:28,040
Speaker 11: like kind of what the rotation.

1362
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 8: May be for joint practices in the in the Carolina game.

01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 15: Be very similar to joint practices that you've seen before, Tony.

1372
01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:56,360
Speaker 15: We'll we'll do a couple of different special teams periods

01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 15: competitors is you get to go against somebody else and

1385
01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 15: we have a ton of respect for a coach Canalis

1386
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 15: and the Panthers, so we're looking forward to getting a

1387
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,400
Speaker 15: really good day's work with them on Wednesday, and then

1388
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 15: the game is really a fun for our organization.

1389
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 8: It's fun for our guys.

1390
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:39,360
Speaker 15: They finally get to be out there and they're keeping

1391
01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 15: score and we get to put guys in different positions

1392
01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,760
Speaker 15: when it comes to situational ball and those type of things.

1393
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:49,400
Speaker 15: So that first preseason game is there's a lot of jitters,

1394
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 15: as there always is for the young men, but we'll

1395
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:54,520
Speaker 15: talk to them about that, but great opportunity just to compete.

1396
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,480
Speaker 17: This nice help is all quarterbacks expected to distant play

1397
01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:58,800
Speaker 17: a time in the first preseason game.

1398
01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,640
Speaker 8: We'll work through that in the next companies. How far

1399
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 8: did get go?

1400
01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:06,280
Speaker 12: But I really didn't just did as far as scripting

1401
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:07,120
Speaker 12: the practice.

1402
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 8: How he outs up then, so far it's been great.

1403
01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 15: What you do typically is obviously Dave and I talked

1404
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,920
Speaker 15: way back when about this and and and he's been

1405
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:19,080
Speaker 15: a gracious host and getting this thing organized for us.

1406
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 15: And then I'll have the We have had our coordinators

1407
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 15: on on the horn with their coordinators just to get

1408
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 15: organized in terms of what both sides need to see.

1409
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:29,640
Speaker 4: Was it any kind of a relief that Shador's arm

1410
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:32,680
Speaker 4: there's nothing serious and the fact that he self reported

1411
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,480
Speaker 4: when he's in the middle of a heated competition, what

1412
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:35,760
Speaker 4: did you think of that for what you're doing?

1413
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,240
Speaker 15: Yeah, well, I think he was just sure, honestly, Mary

1414
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 15: Kay and I think obviously he'll look at his process

1415
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,080
Speaker 15: making sure that his arm's ready to go, and but

1416
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,320
Speaker 15: it's nothing more than that he's get getting treatment, he'll

1417
01:04:46,320 --> 01:04:46,640
Speaker 15: be good to go.

1418
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 4: I'm gonna try to script follow up on your quarterback,

1419
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 4: Kenny the hamstring O doing a little with the hamstring?

1420
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:54,280
Speaker 8: Should with it? And did you necessarily get the sign

1421
01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:54,680
Speaker 8: every going to go?

1422
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:54,960
Speaker 17: Called?

1423
01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:56,560
Speaker 23: No?

1424
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:57,120
Speaker 3: I didn't.

1425
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 15: That's uh, hey, every day you're you learn something new.

1426
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 15: So all those guys that listen, they're all working hard.

1427
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:06,080
Speaker 9: But it's all part of it.

1428
01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:08,680
Speaker 6: With the first new.

1429
01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:13,760
Speaker 15: Again, we'll just you guys will see how we plan

1430
01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 15: practice and uh, all these guys, which I'm appreciative of,

1431
01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 15: are are pushing to do the best that they can

1432
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 15: and whatever it is, and I say that because we've

1433
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,320
Speaker 15: had a really good walkthrough in there with the guys

1434
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:28,240
Speaker 15: putting some two minute in so they handle that really well,

1435
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 15: So I expect them, expect them to handle this as well.

1436
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 19: Watching one of the other young defile Ryan Baggers are

1437
01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:36,720
Speaker 19: popping out too.

1438
01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,240
Speaker 15: Yeah, it's interesting Joe, because there's young guys but them,

1439
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,920
Speaker 15: there's some guys, there's veterans with some good experience that

1440
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 15: I think are also acquitting themselves really nicely.

1441
01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:48,560
Speaker 8: So, Uh, it's a really good group.

1442
01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:50,800
Speaker 15: Coach Tarbor, as you know, does an awesome job with

1443
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 15: those guys. Uh, they're in the nerve center of our

1444
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,960
Speaker 15: defense and and getting us lined up, making calls and

1445
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 15: that type of thing.

1446
01:05:56,680 --> 01:06:01,160
Speaker 8: So I've been really pleased with them. You start naming them,

1447
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 8: I'll say yes.

1448
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:05,760
Speaker 22: Sorry, I don't have the depth tread from the should

1449
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:06,440
Speaker 22: just mention it.

1450
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 2: Maybe it was a stop and start nature of practice

1451
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:12,400
Speaker 2: at the arm you've led to the sore is can

1452
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:13,720
Speaker 2: you guys do anything for that or is that just

1453
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:15,600
Speaker 2: up to him to kind of stay loose at all.

1454
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 15: Yeah, we've talked about it. He'll do a great job.

1455
01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:22,000
Speaker 15: He'll stay loose. Uh, that's part of that gig. You know,

1456
01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:24,520
Speaker 15: part of it for all quarterbacks is just keeping your

1457
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:26,480
Speaker 15: arm loose and he'll he'll do a good job.

1458
01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:29,000
Speaker 11: Is that part of adjusting to you know, from college

1459
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 11: to pro there's something maybe that you know, the timetable

1460
01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:33,240
Speaker 11: and everything for a rookie to happen.

1461
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 15: I think there's so many adjustments that these guys are

1462
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 15: tackling every single day. And yeah, of course getting your

1463
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 15: body ready, knowing what your body needs. You know, we

1464
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 15: have a lot of these practices in a row, so

1465
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 15: you have to be smart about making sure you're ready

1466
01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:47,040
Speaker 15: to roll.

1467
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:50,000
Speaker 14: Kevin Dylan in the hamstring, was it something where you've

1468
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,720
Speaker 14: heard it on a specific player just came in today?

1469
01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:57,600
Speaker 15: No, he reported this was on Saturday, So happened on Saturday,

1470
01:06:57,640 --> 01:06:59,440
Speaker 15: and he's getting treatment on it and you'll see he'll

1471
01:06:59,480 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 15: be out.

1472
01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 9: Here just a little bit of tightness.

1473
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 19: I guess when it comes to evaluation and these joint

1474
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,280
Speaker 19: practices first three season games, do you feet more value

1475
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:09,680
Speaker 19: and like the joint practices and what happens in.

1476
01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:12,760
Speaker 8: This you know, it's a good question.

1477
01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:13,000
Speaker 10: Dan.

1478
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:16,120
Speaker 15: I feel like there's value in everything in what we're

1479
01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 15: seeing from the guys that we value their how they

1480
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:21,680
Speaker 15: do in the meeting room, we value how they are

1481
01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:24,560
Speaker 15: in the walkthrough. Like I mentioned earlier, we value all

1482
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:27,520
Speaker 15: these practice reps. Of course, when you're going up against

1483
01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 15: another team and it's a setting where maybe you don't

1484
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:32,920
Speaker 15: know exactly what the defense is gonna do or the

1485
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,400
Speaker 15: offense is gonna do, I think there's certainly value created

1486
01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:35,640
Speaker 15: in that.

1487
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 8: And then in the preseason games, like I.

1488
01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 15: Mentioned before, they're keeping score, so the competitive part of

1489
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 15: our sport kicks in, and you want to obviously do

1490
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 15: well in those venues as.

1491
01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 2: Well, when you know you and the staff talking a

1492
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 2: lot about the.

1493
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:52,760
Speaker 14: Processes and being really happy with what you're seeing in

1494
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:55,600
Speaker 14: that regard. So like, at what point during campus is

1495
01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:56,840
Speaker 14: these joint practices?

1496
01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:57,400
Speaker 17: Is it?

1497
01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 14: You know, when the preseason's winding down, what do you

1498
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 14: focus on resources over the process.

1499
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:10,240
Speaker 15: Well, I mean, ultimately, this is a results business. That

1500
01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:14,480
Speaker 15: this game is about results. We know that, But I

1501
01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:17,519
Speaker 15: think you're doing yourself a disservice if you're not hyper

1502
01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:20,559
Speaker 15: focused on your process as a player, as a coach,

1503
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 15: whether you have success in a given play or not,

1504
01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 15: are you learning from that play? I mean, that's that

1505
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 15: all speaks to the process that allows you to play

1506
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:31,679
Speaker 15: well on Sundays.

1507
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 8: I mean, that's that's the ultimate goal.

1508
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:37,280
Speaker 15: But we're pretty process driven, and that another way of

1509
01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 15: saying that is we take practice very seriously. We take

1510
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 15: the work we do in the building very seriously, and

1511
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:45,760
Speaker 15: that all adds up to putting yourself in position to

1512
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 15: play good football.

1513
01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:47,759
Speaker 8: Kein Injuries are parted.

1514
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 18: It is, and I know that's another quarterback can summer

1515
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:53,920
Speaker 18: of minor week here in the air. But how much

1516
01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:57,360
Speaker 18: does that hurt maybe you're processing of developing it in

1517
01:08:57,680 --> 01:08:58,880
Speaker 18: the play, if at all it is.

1518
01:08:58,840 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 9: It frustrating you?

1519
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,160
Speaker 8: No, injuries are a part of this game.

1520
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,920
Speaker 15: They're frustrating from the standpoint of when you lose a

1521
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 15: guy for a good amount of time, you feel that

1522
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:09,000
Speaker 15: that's tough on the players.

1523
01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 8: But the dealing with injuries, adjusting his injuries, that's just.

1524
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:13,599
Speaker 9: Part of the game.

1525
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:17,360
Speaker 5: So why did you schedule first week joint practice this year?

1526
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:18,200
Speaker 9: As close to a.

1527
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:21,160
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think every year, Tony just looking at our

1528
01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:24,760
Speaker 15: steal that word again, process, what we can do better,

1529
01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:25,880
Speaker 15: what other teams are doing?

1530
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:26,519
Speaker 21: Uh?

1531
01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:30,760
Speaker 15: Is there an opportunity to do something? So I can

1532
01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:33,000
Speaker 15: you know, I'll talk while I'm down there. But my

1533
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 15: relationship with coach Canalis, Well, you know, our relationship among

1534
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:40,080
Speaker 15: the staff, like the scheme that they run on both

1535
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:41,920
Speaker 15: sides of the ball will be good for our team.

1536
01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:44,439
Speaker 8: So there's a lot of positives to going down there.

1537
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:50,240
Speaker 12: Kind duve tabling off what Dan astre in a way,

1538
01:09:50,320 --> 01:09:52,360
Speaker 12: preseason it's a bold Are.

1539
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,880
Speaker 8: The joint workouts more beneficial to together? It's where the

1540
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 8: games are more beneficial for the rookies and what.

1541
01:09:58,200 --> 01:09:59,639
Speaker 9: They can do on the flying or anything.

1542
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:04,080
Speaker 15: Yeah, I'd say in some ways yes, the preseason games,

1543
01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 15: you know, are are great because they're they're opportunities in

1544
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:13,760
Speaker 15: a controlled environment for your players. Now, there's some teams

1545
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:15,720
Speaker 15: that don't play their starters at all in the preseason

1546
01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:18,559
Speaker 15: and that's what they think is best for their team

1547
01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:22,400
Speaker 15: in that given moment. And think about you know, quarterbacks

1548
01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:24,360
Speaker 15: that play in the preseason. You're you're obviously not wearing

1549
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:27,320
Speaker 15: a red jersey, so you're free game in those situations,

1550
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,519
Speaker 15: whereas you're not in practice and or a joint practice

1551
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 15: with another team. So I think those are all things

1552
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,320
Speaker 15: that we weigh as coaches trying to figure out what

1553
01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,720
Speaker 15: our team needs for a given season, for a given week.

1554
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 20: So when you say you will hold out some guys

1555
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 20: for the game that needs some guys will play any

1556
01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:45,720
Speaker 20: regular Yes.

1557
01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:50,600
Speaker 13: Coach Bloom was talking about Potonio last week, saying checks loddops.

1558
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:52,840
Speaker 8: Or future Hall of Fame a game of the season.

1559
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:55,479
Speaker 5: Would you say about what makes sure we're.

1560
01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:58,760
Speaker 8: That kind of player playing? Yeah, I think Joel's a

1561
01:10:58,800 --> 01:10:59,360
Speaker 8: Hall of Famer.

1562
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:02,280
Speaker 15: I've been blessed to be around the Hall of famers

1563
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 15: uh a, and he fits the mold. He's done it

1564
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:08,280
Speaker 15: at an extremely high level for a really long time.

1565
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:10,920
Speaker 15: I think if you talk to players, I think players

1566
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:13,600
Speaker 15: are great judges of talent. I think you talk to

1567
01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,519
Speaker 15: the players around this league, and they know what Joel's about.

1568
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:19,680
Speaker 15: Now that's the player. The person off the field is

1569
01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 15: a Hall of Fame person. And I rely heavily on

1570
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:25,479
Speaker 15: Joel uh really almost every day for his input and

1571
01:11:25,600 --> 01:11:27,640
Speaker 15: his thoughts on where we are as a team, what

1572
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 15: we need to be doing, what what you know, just

1573
01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:32,920
Speaker 15: getting a feel for him and his teammates. He's an

1574
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,720
Speaker 15: incredible uh ambassador for his team if you will, and

1575
01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:39,759
Speaker 15: uh you know, but yeah, I can't say enough good things.

1576
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 8: About Getty's great to have Joe time is something he

1577
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 8: wanted to do.

1578
01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:48,120
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think Joe knows what we'll take him as

1579
01:11:48,479 --> 01:11:50,400
Speaker 15: much as we can get him. And I think he

1580
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:52,720
Speaker 15: was gonna be in town, uh, working this week, so

1581
01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 15: he traded in whatever he's doing for to grab the

1582
01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:57,960
Speaker 15: whistle for the for the week and see if he

1583
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:01,240
Speaker 15: can you know, any little help. Anything that Joe can

1584
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 15: do in the meeting room's helps. I think anything Joe

1585
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,519
Speaker 15: does out here on the practice field helps. When you're

1586
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:07,240
Speaker 15: talking about a Hall of famer, well, Gregor bet you

1587
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:09,760
Speaker 15: today he's still working through.

1588
01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but again better in Dylan is talking about the

1589
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:15,000
Speaker 2: ups and downs that or natural any training camp.

1590
01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 9: And probably especially for a rookie.

1591
01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:18,400
Speaker 8: How have you seen him kind of handle.

1592
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:19,000
Speaker 9: Those abs and shows?

1593
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:22,719
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think all these rookies, like you mentioned Scott

1594
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 15: and certainly quarterbacks, there's plays that are set up for

1595
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:28,040
Speaker 15: you and you let it rip and it's there. There's

1596
01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:31,280
Speaker 15: times that things aren't there, and and I think the

1597
01:12:31,360 --> 01:12:33,519
Speaker 15: big thing is learning from every single one of those reps.

1598
01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:36,280
Speaker 15: Like I can think of certain reps where you gotta

1599
01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:37,640
Speaker 15: move in the pocket and you gotta run out of

1600
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:39,599
Speaker 15: the pocket. You gotta go scramble and get as much

1601
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 15: as we can get and get down.

1602
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:42,400
Speaker 8: And protect yourself. That's real football.

1603
01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:44,840
Speaker 15: So we're trying as hard as we can to mimic

1604
01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:47,320
Speaker 15: that in these settings and and know that you're gonna

1605
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:51,040
Speaker 15: have some plays that you want back, but the bottom lines.

1606
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 8: You have to learn from those plays. I think he's

1607
01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 8: doing that with tweaks to some of the other guys.

1608
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 4: Do you think you might have to play Joe placke of.

1609
01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:57,280
Speaker 8: The game into you.

1610
01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 15: I'll wait to discuss those type of things later, Mary Kay,

1611
01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:06,360
Speaker 15: but yeah, Joe's ready to go for Neo.

1612
