1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: It's Monday, October twenty third, and you're listening to the 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: Ravens Press Pass podcast. The Ravens coming off a dominant 3 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday, winning thirty eight 4 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 1: to six to improve to five and two on the season. 5 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 1: The Ravens were clearly fired up about this victory, one 6 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 1: of those dominant wins in recent memory. Is a complete 7 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: game really on both sides of the ball. But they're 8 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: also turning the page. They know they have a matchup 9 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: coming up next week against the Arizona Cardinals, and head 10 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: coach John Harbaugh talked about that today when he met 11 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: with the media. 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: I appreciate everybody being here. Just finished up the post 13 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 2: action work for the game yesterday, and we're moving into 14 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 2: the preparation for the next game against the Cardinals. We'll 15 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: kind of combined those two things over the next two days, 16 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: and I try to hit the ground running on Wednesday 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 2: with a great practice. So what questions you. 18 00:00:54,760 --> 00:01:00,959 Speaker 3: Have touch on defense after yesterday's game? This defense, it's 19 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 3: just like every week can It's been so consistently. 20 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: Well. We're doing a good job, playing hard. Guys have 21 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 2: been physical up front. I think we've done it you know, 22 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 2: pretty good job in terms of the tackle tackle run 23 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: game consistently. Uh you know, we've we've we've controlled the 24 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 2: perimeter stuff generally. There's been some plays here and there, 25 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: some screens. They hit some screens yesterday they got some yards. 26 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: We've kept the ball in the run game pretty much 27 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 2: inside lately the last couple of weeks, nothing's really bounced 28 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: around us. That's big. I think we've kept the ball 29 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: in front of us. Deep stuff has been in front 30 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 2: of us. There hasn't been too much deep uh there 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 2: up till now. So we've got to continue to keep 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 2: building on that and keep looking for that. People are 33 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: going to look for opportunities to get shots and big 34 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: plays against us, So I got to keep doing those 35 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: kinds of things. So generally good, generally good sound, hard 36 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: playing defense. I think our guys are doing a good 37 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: job with that. 38 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 4: First time in a. 39 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 5: Month and just being able to add him to the 40 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 5: group of outsideline that it's already playing it online. 41 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly right, he's he dad him in there. You know, 42 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: he's a guy that was jumping at the bit, you know, 43 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: to be right and be healthy. Came back, played hard, 44 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 2: got a sack. I was good against the run. Just 45 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 2: another good player, really good player. Obviously you want to 46 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 2: be full strength. We've got some other guys you know 47 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: that that are working their way back as well, So 48 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: always pulling for those guys to get back and be 49 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: healthy and be ready to go. 50 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 6: Season. 51 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 4: So far, kind of on pace for career years. What 52 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 4: have you what have you seen in his evolution this 53 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 4: year that's you know, to take that next step of 54 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 4: kind of continued progression. What's what's he doing differently? 55 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: I guess from the same. I think he's continued to 56 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 2: grow ever since he's been here. He's always had, you know, 57 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 2: a lot of upside. For sure. You would see the 58 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: kind of dominant plays here and there, and he's probably 59 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: just I think he's just made more of those. You know, 60 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: he's more consistent, making more you know, dominant type plays, 61 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 2: you know, whether it's on our pass, more explosive, more 62 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 2: consistent with his technique, all these kind of things that 63 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: you would expect as a player would grow and get better, 64 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 2: who works as hard as he does consistently, you'd expect 65 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 2: his play to be more consistent. I think that's what's happened. 66 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 5: John, You again is talking more and more of him 67 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 5: and Patrick Queen just sort of pumping up their market 68 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 5: value week by week. Do you sort of look at 69 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 5: that as a as a good problem to have for 70 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 5: the short term release? 71 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not really thinking about guys contracts right now, 72 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: thinking about the next game. 73 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, how much can you take that ignited 74 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 5: the offense? 75 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 7: And how often have you done that? 76 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: We've done We've done it from time to time. We've 77 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 2: had a game or two where we were planned on 78 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 2: doing it this year and we didn't win the toss. 79 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: You know, the win games are a lot of times 80 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: of win games, and you feel like, you know you're 81 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 2: gonna want to win in the fourth quarter for in 82 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: a close game. That's something that we've taken into consideration. 83 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: But probably you know, the added effect in this game 84 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: was that we started off so hot on offense. The 85 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: fact that we were able to take the ball down 86 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: the field the way we did, uh, you know, was 87 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: was just and we were into the wind. So that 88 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: was a big plus for us. I thought that was 89 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 2: kind of made it an irrelevant point. You may have 90 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: noticed in the third quarter we chose to take the 91 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: win in the third quarter instead of waiting to the 92 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. We figured we'd want to win and see 93 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: if we extend the lead at that point. 94 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 8: I mean, guys, he passes I think twenty years or 95 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 8: more yesterday. Have you seen the deeper passing game of 96 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 8: all service season? 97 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean a lot of stuff really came 98 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 2: open a little a little more. I mean we had 99 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 2: some we had some good little ideas there as far 100 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: as scheme wise, but uh, you know, if you run 101 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: the ball, well, uh, we had really good protection, so 102 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 2: it gave us time to let some of those routes unfold. 103 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 6: Uh. 104 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: Some of some other games when we had some of 105 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 2: those things called it didn't quite have as much time. 106 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 2: You know, all those things kind of go together, and uh, 107 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: you know that's what you have to have to get 108 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 2: the ball downfield. 109 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 7: I trying to put a lot with that little more. 110 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 7: I mean, especially thinking about the touchdown to Newlston Aguilar 111 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 7: or the patients and toys that he's shown, and especially 112 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 7: in his last game, can you say about that. 113 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, he really does have good pocket presence. I mean 114 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 2: he's got a good feel in the pocket. He always has. 115 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 2: You know, sometimes sometimes it's almost too much. I mean 116 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: sometimes he'll really hold hold onto that ball. You know, 117 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 2: and I think he trusts his guys, his linemen to 118 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: hold on for him. He's protecting the ball well in 119 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: there for the most part. You know, in terms of 120 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 2: there's a balance between you want to protect the ball 121 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 2: number one, no doubt about it, but you also want 122 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 2: to extend plays and give guys a chance to get 123 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 2: open and then the ability to move. You know, Lamars 124 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: obviously great at moving, and then also I think sensing 125 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 2: people around him even outside the pocket, and then seeing 126 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 2: the receivers downfield. That combination probably showed up yesterday as 127 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: much as it ever has. In terms of the playmaking. 128 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 9: John talked about how locked in the guys weren't practice 129 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 9: all week. Did you expect them to come out firing 130 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 9: the way that they did pretty much Ball four quarters? 131 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you always kind of do, you know, 132 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 2: and you're kind of disappointed when it doesn't happen, and 133 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 2: when you when you practice the way you have, it 134 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: hasn't just been one week of practice. I mean they've 135 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 2: been practicing that way pretty much all along. We haven't 136 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 2: really had any practices where always felt like, hey, this 137 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: was not a good practice. You know, sometimes you gotta 138 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 2: you got to crack the whip a little bit, but 139 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: with these guys not really you know, it hasn't really 140 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: been that way. They've they've kind of come out every 141 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 2: practice and been ready to go. So he's gotta keep 142 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: building on that and getting better every practice. Should get 143 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: better as a season goes on, because you're better as 144 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 2: a team if you're locked in and focused. That should 145 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: continue to improve and building on itself. 146 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 8: Played a lot of snaps, let the team tackles, have 147 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 8: the sack. 148 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 4: Just what are you seeing from him? 149 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 2: Very productive game by Arthur, no question about it. Ryan, 150 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: I mean, he was all over the field. I felt 151 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: like even I told him this, I said, dude, you're 152 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 2: getting little gassed at the end because you know he's 153 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: playing special teams too, And he really was on a 154 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: lot of in on a lot of plays, run in pass, 155 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 2: Blitz got a sack, So he was really productive. Great 156 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 2: to see. I think he's really fitting in well with 157 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: the defense. When we saw. 158 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 5: Mar's little moment of frustration necessary after the exchange with Justice, 159 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 5: and they've had a couple of those. This year has 160 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 5: been a different problem long with each one or is 161 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 5: there the consistent thing they need to work on. 162 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: It's been a different problem with each one and it 163 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 2: is the thing they need to work on. Yeah, and 164 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: that's you know, you continue to do that. And we 165 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 2: have a ball handling offense. You know, we have a 166 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: lot of ball handling in our offense, more than most teams, 167 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: So probably is going to show up a little more 168 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: than other teams. But that just means we have to 169 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: be that much better at it and that much more 170 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: aware of it. We don't want we want it. We 171 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 2: want perfection in that area. And that's why he was 172 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: so upset. We all were.

Because 208 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: how many games we played so far? Seven? All right, 209 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: some means we've got ten more in the regular season. 210 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 2: Say we've got a lot of work to do. 211 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 4: Say two things on day Flowers what did you guys 212 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 4: see that that allowed him to be so open on 213 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 4: that first series yesterday. 214 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: You know, it's just a function of you just never 215 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: know what's going to happen. You never know who's going 216 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 2: to be open. You know, there's certain things that happen 217 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 2: on each play. If we had the tape, we could 218 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 2: probably go through it, you know, on each play and 219 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 2: look at it and see why it may have happened, 220 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: what coveras it was, Different things happen in different plays. 221 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,599 Speaker 4: And then secondly, just how would you describe his you know, 222 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 4: he's had I think he's had seven straight games of 223 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 4: at least fifty yards each game. The only other guy 224 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 4: to do that is to Mark Chase since nineteen seven. 225 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 4: How would you describe his grasp of the offense for 226 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 4: guy who's you know, seven. 227 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: Games into the in his career, right, well, I would 228 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 2: say for seven games in Yeah, to your point, it's 229 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: probably as good as it could be. You know, he's 230 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: really diligent. You know, he's very smart, and yet you 231 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 2: know he's not anywhere near where he's going to be, 232 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 2: you know, terms of understanding the offense. I mean he's 233 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 2: still learning. You know, he's still got word line up. 234 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 2: You saw it yesterday a few times. He's still learning 235 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: the nuances of the routes. Greg does a great job 236 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: with him. Greg Lewis and Keith Walliams both do a 237 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 2: great job with those guys. With all that. But he's 238 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: doing great. But you know he's got to He's going 239 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: to get a lot better and he needs to get better. 240 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: And I promise you he's very determined to keep getting better. 241 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: He's not thinking about that kind of a stat which 242 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 2: is very cool, but right now he's just thinking about 243 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 2: the Cardinals. 244 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: Running Stanley vision. 245 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 4: He channels internationally learned and driving block through the Angel 246 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 4: Fay And you praise the offensive lineup of. 247 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 8: The game when you watch the tape of the game again, 248 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:40,359 Speaker 8: what most impressed. 249 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: Me about that group? I thought the pass protection. You know, 250 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: that was a really good pass rushing group. Bo They 251 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 2: very physical group that was going to try to basically, 252 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 2: it's a knockback pass rush, try to constrict the pocket 253 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 2: by closing the pocket on the quarterback. They'd done it 254 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 2: against everybody, they'd played really well, and they really weren't 255 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 2: able to do it as nearly as much with our 256 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: offensive line, So that was that was a big plus. 257 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: Four us on interviewing the. 258 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 3: Film, just of more of throwing the ball, you know, 259 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 3: other than buying time, and just how he executed the 260 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 3: passing game. 261 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 2: Did anything stand out to you and just hell you. 262 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 3: From that from that game and we're just watching rewatching. 263 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 2: The film start. Yeah, I mean it all stood out. 264 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 2: It's just a combination of things. It's it was. It 265 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 2: was the pass protection, you know, that was a big 266 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 2: part of it. I thought the guys ran routes super fast. 267 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: I mean when you look at the when you look 268 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 2: at the route running, you'll say, okay, someone came open, 269 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 2: like maybe Zay or or or or Dell or or 270 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 2: Bait came open on a crossing route right. Well usually 271 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: a lot of those times. I mean I remember, say 272 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: running a post out of there, or Mark they running 273 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 2: a post and Mark running a rail, and so those 274 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 2: routes are run a speed that drains the coverage and 275 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 2: here comes the crossing route across. Those are designs that 276 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 2: you hope happened. But for those to happen, the guys 277 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: who aren't getting the ball have to be running their 278 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 2: routes really fast and really effectively to do that. And 279 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: that's not just the ball could go to them too 280 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 2: if they if the coverage doesn't drain out, you know, 281 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 2: if the coverage jumps the crossing routes. So everybody just 282 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: going full speed as hard as they can, try to 283 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: do things as right as they can. Every play I 284 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 2: think just kind of adds up over time, and then 285 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 2: guys hopefully get open, and then the protection needs to 286 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 2: hold up and then lamar and need to see it. 287 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 2: One time he came all the way back and he 288 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 2: hit bait to the right on a deep end stop route. 289 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: It was the fifth read in the progression. He a 290 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 2: had time to do it, be he had to where 291 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: with all you know, the understanding that just he's good 292 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 2: enough to get to his fifth read. That's pretty pretty 293 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: pretty great. 294 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 6: There's more passing. 295 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: A couple of times it looks like he just coulda 296 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: run and then had a football and one. 297 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 3: The coups that way and was another one. 298 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 8: How much is like his running ability. 299 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: The element is Yeah. I mean I've been working real 300 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: hard with him on that myself personally, with his his 301 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 2: his running and then throwing late and seeing guys. So 302 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: I'm really glad. I've been kind of taking a lot 303 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 2: of pride in that myself. As a coach. You know, 304 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 2: that's that's just LaVar, That's Lamar, you know, b and Lamar. 305 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 2: I think it is one of his just some of 306 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 2: his innate talent. How he sees the game is pretty special. 307 00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 2: If you get any. 308 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 3: Resolution on ties after last week, which I guess was 309 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 3: a week he was. 310 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 2: Talking to doctors. Yeah, no, no resolution yet, No resolution yet. 311 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 2: And I finished another injury question. Yeah you didn't. 312 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 8: But it was Keith Mitchell the only guy to get 313 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 8: banged up yesterday. 314 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: And was that a severe hamstring or right, yes, he was, 315 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 2: And it's not a severe hamstring. It'll be it'll be 316 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 2: week to week. You could outside chance for this week, 317 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 2: put more possible. 318 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 8: For next week, John, your players almost unanimously expressed that 319 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 8: they were unhappy with parts of their performance and their 320 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 8: super production. When you look to take what areas can 321 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 8: you kind of point to more specifically for fans that 322 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 8: you saw that you're wanting to work on. I'm looking 323 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 8: forward to like working into this week. 324 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we got the lists there. You know, 325 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: it really doesn't need to be publicized. We're working on stuff. 326 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 2: You know, it's it's it's it's football stuff, you know, 327 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 2: and everybody everybody kind of has their thing too. There's 328 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 2: big picture stuff I've got. I've got probably two really 329 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 2: big ones that I'm thinking about right now, and one 330 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 2: on the east side of the ball. And then with that, 331 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 2: you know, there's kind of a filtering of things all 332 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 2: the way across the board. It really is something that 333 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 2: is just part of the process every week, though, you know, 334 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 2: and the fact that our guys are bought into that 335 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: and conscious of that, you know, on a day to 336 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: day basis, really makes me feel like they have a 337 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 2: chance to really be successful. When you have a group 338 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: of guys players, people that think that way, then they're 339 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 2: thinking growth mindset. They're thinking that way in terms of 340 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 2: like we can get better, I need to get better, 341 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: embracing the imperfection, so to speak. You know, that's a 342 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 2: good thing. 343 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 9: John, you've gotten a coach Lamarvel a couple of years now. 344 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 9: I know you probably handle some of the nothing surprises 345 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 9: you when you watch them out there. But thinking back 346 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 9: to that touchdown pass to Nowson, manager lot aware that 347 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 9: play felt like it's. 348 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: Going on forever. What are your emotions. 349 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 9: During that. 350 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 2: Same as yours? Probably, I mean all the fans, you know, 351 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: I'm like I'm like, you know, I'm I can't believe 352 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 2: we've got fleshed out of the pocket. Why wasn't the 353 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: first route open or maybe the route wasn't running the 354 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 2: right way somewhere, And I'm mad. And then I'm then 355 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: I'm thinking, well, Lamar's get away and something, you know, 356 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 2: I'm thinking to find somebody, somebody get opened. Then the 357 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 2: ball goes up as a touchdown, and Ice scream for joint. 358 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: You know, inside I don't want anybody to see that, 359 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 2: you know, but it's the same that I will say 360 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: this in the red zone, especially everywhere, really everywhere defensive perspective, 361 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 2: the extended play is real. You know. It's something you 362 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 2: have to actually prepare to stop. And the teams that 363 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: do it better are the teams that are tougher to defend. 364 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 2: So the ability to defend those are big, But the 365 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: ability to to UH, to extend plays and make plays 366 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: after the first play doesn't quite work the way you 367 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 2: want it to is a massive UH is a massive 368 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: part of football. So that's what happened on that play 369 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 2: was extended play. Lamar and Nelson did a great job 370 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 2: with it. So that's what you really that's part of 371 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 2: the it's it's part of the it's part of the 372 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: planned unplanned offense. Okay, so it's it's planned to be 373 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 2: unplanned sometimes and then you hope you guys can make 374 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: the most of it. Kna. 375 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 3: Now we're finished called the London questions.

I mean, all you got 393 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: to do is watch the tape and you see how 394 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: physical they are, how tough they are, how competitive they 395 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 2: are a team. And if we haven't learned that by 396 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: if we have anybody in our team that doesn't understand 397 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 2: how the NFL works, I'd be really disappointed. You know, 398 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 2: that's something that would really be a disappointment. And I 399 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: don't think I'm going to be disappointed that way. 400 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 9: John. 401 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 2: I think you guys maybe lead the league in sacks. 402 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 3: What do you the. 403 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 2: Been the improvement for you guys to to to get 404 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 2: to that goal there? 405 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: And have you been surprised with the play of calvan Noid? 406 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 6: Right? 407 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 2: All good questions. Kyle van Noy, not surprised, seen it 408 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: for so many years, impressed. You know, you get you 409 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 2: get be a little older, and they start saying you 410 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 2: can't do it anymore. And Kyle does take that personally 411 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 2: by the way, you know, and it's probably probably part 412 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 2: of what fuels him. The same thing with JD. Clowney. 413 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: You know, to see those guys do that is really cool. 414 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 2: But then you've got the young guys who you know, 415 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 2: people are questioning whether they are you know, can play, 416 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 2: you know, and they've got something to prove. So we 417 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 2: always always appreciate players and coaches that feel like they 418 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 2: have something to prove. Uh, And it all goes hand 419 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: in hand in terms of the sacks. I mean, you know, 420 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 2: coverage is part of that opportunities part of that, you know, 421 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 2: sometimes you know, offense helps offense gets the lead, forces 422 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 2: him to throw the ball more, and you get more opportunities. 423 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 2: All this thing kind of go together. 424 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 6: Hey, John, yesterday after the game, he said that that 425 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 6: kind of win creates a vision of what your team 426 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 6: can be. How important is it going forward for you know, 427 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 6: coaches to talk about yesterday's game or players to draw 428 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 6: on yesterday's game knowing how successful they can be on 429 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 6: a single game basis you know going forward? 430 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 2: Right, Well, it is important because you know, success does 431 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 2: breed success, and when you conference is kind of like 432 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: real conference is based on having proven to yourself that 433 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 2: you can actually do it. It's one thing to believe 434 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 2: in yourself and know that the potential is there. It's 435 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 2: another thing to get out there and you know, make 436 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 2: a sink a shot and know that you can.
