I know had coached on paying put it 72 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: quite frankly that they didn't play you know well enough. 73 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 2: So Steve, for you, what. 74 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: Kind of stood out to you on Sunday and what 75 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: do you think the focus should be this week as 76 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: they head into that Dolphins game. 77 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, just it didn't seem like at times everyone was 78 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 4: on the same page. 79 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 3: Had some communication issues, some. 80 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 4: Some flat out just breakdowns where people didn't cover the 81 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 4: person they're supposed to cover. 82 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 3: Uh, and then just the urgency. 83 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 4: I saw it from some players, but I just didn't 84 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 4: see that from eleven players on every single play. And 85 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 4: to win in the NFL, you have to see that 86 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 4: a majority of the player. You got to see all 87 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 4: eleven guys flying around to the ball, reading their keys 88 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 4: and and and taking decisive action on the football field, 89 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 4: and uh that that's a little bit lacking right now. 90 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 4: Hopefully it's just because hey, it's a new kind of 91 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 4: kind of a new defense and they're still getting used 92 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 4: to it and everybody else. So but yeah, it's, uh, 93 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 4: it's something that can be fixed. But the guys they 94 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 4: have to be intentional about, hey, we gotta we gotta 95 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 4: get this right, and they gotta they gotta work on 96 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 4: it in practice and show it in the games. 97 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely see you concern it all in I guess 98 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: terms of tackling, I know that was kind of a 99 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: big issue, especially in the second half. 100 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 4: That's another thing that in practice, I mean, you're not 101 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 4: gonna hit live, but you can kind of simulate that. 102 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 4: And uh, even when you're going up against the ones, 103 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 4: you know you can you can play full speed right 104 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 4: up and go right up and like you're gonna make 105 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 4: the tackle and then pull off at the last minute. 106 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 4: And you know, I was always a big guy of 107 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 4: making sure that during the week you hit the big 108 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: bag at least once, just to make sure that your 109 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 4: body is always used to having that physical contact, because 110 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 4: I think once you get in the game, you. 111 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 3: Haven't really had a lot of contact. 112 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: You know, sometimes guys can just shy away from from 113 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 4: the contact, not even really knowing that, hey it's because 114 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 4: I haven't hit anybody in over a week. So you know, 115 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 4: hopefully they can, you know, get into the into that 116 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: mindset that hey, we're going to be physical, we're gonna 117 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 4: fly around, and they're not gonna have to worry about 118 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 4: getting injured or or the ace and pains because they've 119 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 4: they've done it during the week, right you. 120 00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: Know, Steve, I don't know if you remember, but on 121 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: last week's I asked you who you're most excited to 122 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: see in week two. You said, Jonathan Cooper, Cooper and 123 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: Nick Bonito. 124 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 2: They had great games. 125 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: Really did. They were flying around. 126 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 4: I love that and just just seeing those guys, and 127 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 4: you know, especially Nick Buonito. Man, Nick Benito, when when 128 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 4: he makes the play, it's just so exciting for me, 129 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 4: you know, and he's so he's so fast and flexible. 130 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 4: Still in the run, I saw a couple of plays 131 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 4: in the run he struggled with. But uh in the 132 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 4: passing game, yeah, he did a really nice job. But 133 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 4: both of those guys, and you know, also Randy Gregory 134 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 4: I thought had some nice pressure too. 135 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,239 Speaker 3: So uh, yeah, the edge, they're they're they're looking looking 136 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 3: looking decent. 137 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Steve looking at you know, this offense. I know, 138 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: this is the second week in a row. We kind 139 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: of said them. Saw them get off to a faster 140 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: start Russell Wilson in company. They got up to a 141 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: twenty one to three lead in the second quarter, but 142 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: then came out a little bit slower. 143 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 2: In the second half. 144 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: They weren't able to find the end zone again until 145 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: you know, the time it expired with that Hail Mary 146 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: pass to Brandon Johnson. What do you feel like changes 147 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: for them in the second half of these games? 148 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good question. 149 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 4: You know, I don't know if they're they're getting a 150 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 4: little tired, or you know, the coach are changing up 151 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 4: to play calling. I'm not sure, but something it seems 152 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 4: like definitely changes in the second half. And you know, 153 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 4: maybe they just have to build up that endurance for 154 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 4: and the belief that they can have you know, six seven, 155 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 4: eight scoring drives where hey, they got to go to 156 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 4: distance or you know, they'll have you know, four or 157 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 4: five plays and then a big play. Well, you got 158 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 4: to get into the rhythm of scoring and believing that 159 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 4: you can score and having the confidence that, regardless of 160 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 4: who we're playing, we're going to put some points up. 161 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 4: And you know, that may be one of the bigger 162 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 4: issues is that we haven't had that in this offense. 163 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 3: You know, we haven't had. 164 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 4: It where we're going down the field scoring points every 165 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 4: single time. And we got to we have the offense 166 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 4: in and you look at the plays, man there and 167 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 4: beautifully I was like, man, I like this, And many 168 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 4: times over the last few years we run plays and 169 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 4: you could see that the timing's off a little bit, 170 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 4: you know, on the screenplays, you know, the lineman gets 171 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 4: out there just a second too soon or too late, 172 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 4: whereas it looks like this year they're they're right on 173 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 4: time with that. And uh, but again, I think we 174 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 4: just got to have that mentality that we're going to 175 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 4: score every single time, and I don't care if it 176 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 4: takes us ten times, We're going to score ten. 177 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 3: We got ten drives, We're going to score ten times. 178 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: I mean, you mentioned Marvin Mims junior. Let's look at 179 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,239 Speaker 1: the rookies then, because they had you know, they steppedup 180 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: big for this offense. 181 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: Marvin Mims and Joey McLoughlin. 182 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: They both scored touchdowns in the first half, but then 183 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: we didn't really see them, you. 184 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: Know, get the ball at all in the second half 185 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: of the game. 186 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, coach Sean Payton addressed that in 187 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 4: his press conference, and I agree with him. You know, 188 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 4: I saw Courtland and Gary and those guys out there 189 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 4: doing a lot of blocking, and hey, you gotta got 190 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 4: to throw everybody at bone and so just really trying 191 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 4: to get everybody involved. 192 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: Uh. 193 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 4: You know, sometimes it's it's kind of tricky because you know, 194 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 4: you want to win, you want to score points, but 195 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 4: you also gotta you know, especially receivers man receivers. Most receivers, 196 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 4: I'm not saying Court is like this. Rob was one 197 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 4: of the guys who wasn't like this, But most receivers 198 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 4: are divas. They gotta have the ball. They gotta they 199 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 4: got to get the ball early. They you know, they 200 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 4: got to be shown some love. So uh and it's 201 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 4: just this is part of football. That's that's that's how 202 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 4: they are. No disrespect to them, but you know, you 203 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 4: want you want to get them involved. 204 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 3: You gotta got to take care of you guys, so 205 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 3: sometimes you got to spread it around. 206 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 2: We'll see. 207 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: This is something we talked about a little bit on 208 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: yesterday's show.

And you know, Mike Shanahan instilled it in 223 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 4: us that we're gonna go out there, we're gonna kick 224 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 4: those guys butts, but we're gonna do it within within 225 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 4: the structure of the game where we're not going to 226 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 4: hurt our team and set us back because we we 227 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 4: had guys who had attitudes who you know, we're anxious 228 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 4: to get to the ball carrier. 229 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 3: Guess what, you gotta wait. You gotta wait, wait till 230 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 3: the ball snap. You can't. You can't. 231 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 4: Can't be so anxious that you're jumping off side. And 232 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 4: you know you're you're having the penalties. But if every 233 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 4: time there's a penalty, you're you're hurting the team. So 234 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 4: whatever you gotta do to clean that up, you know, 235 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 4: and that's for all players, you know, jumping off sides, Yeah, 236 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 4: clean it up, because you're hurting your team every time 237 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 4: you do that. And you know, and Mike kind of 238 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 4: had us feel like, hey, you have ability. It's kind 239 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 4: of selfish.

All Right, too has the quickest time to 244 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: throw among all certain quarterbacks right now. So how do 245 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: you think that will impact the Broncos offensive game plan 246 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 1: on Sunday? 247 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 4: Well, obviously, when when quarterbacks are releasing the ball quickly, 248 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 4: it's gonna be difficult to get there and make sacks 249 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 4: on them. I mean, I would imagine, I mean, should 250 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 4: you even try to blitz right? I mean, should you 251 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 4: have more people back in coverage? 252 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 3: You know? 253 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 4: And I'm sure. I mean I've never been a defensive coordinator. 254 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 4: I mean I did little league ball, but it's much 255 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 4: different at this level. But you know, that's going to 256 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 4: be a chess match, you know, determining you know, which 257 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 4: defenses do you run? 258 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 3: I mean, you have the line I'm in, go to the. 259 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 4: Line of scrimmage, you know, get a bunch of the 260 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 4: tall guys, you know, get those hands up. You know, 261 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 4: Toa is not a tall quarterback, but he's very very 262 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 4: accurate Brol. 263 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 3: So yeah, that's going to be a challenge. That's going 264 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 3: to be a challenge for us. 265 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 4: And you know, we know the speed that they have 266 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 4: at the wire, receiver position, tight end position, their talented 267 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 4: offensive unit. 268 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 3: So we're gonning to be on all p's and q's 269 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 3: this week. 270 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely gonna be a tough matchup on Sunday, Steve, 271 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: appreciate you joining the show. 272 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: Thank you said, thanks for your insight. 273 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and Broncos fans don't forget.
