WEBVTT - John Harbaugh: Monday Press Conference (10/23) 0:00:02.960 --> 0:00:05.160 It's Monday, October twenty third, and you're listening to the 0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:08.360 Ravens Press Pass podcast. The Ravens coming off a dominant 0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:12.840 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday, winning thirty eight 0:00:12.920 --> 0:00:16.320 to six to improve to five and two on the season. 0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:19.280 The Ravens were clearly fired up about this victory, one 0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:21.919 of those dominant wins in recent memory. Is a complete 0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:24.239 game really on both sides of the ball. But they're 0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:26.000 also turning the page. They know they have a matchup 0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:28.120 coming up next week against the Arizona Cardinals, and head 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:31.240 coach John Harbaugh talked about that today when he met 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:31.800 with the media. 0:00:33.400 --> 0:00:40.120 I appreciate everybody being here. Just finished up the post 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:44.200 action work for the game yesterday, and we're moving into 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:48.000 the preparation for the next game against the Cardinals. We'll 0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:50.080 kind of combined those two things over the next two days, 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:52.479 and I try to hit the ground running on Wednesday 0:00:52.520 --> 0:00:54.800 with a great practice. So what questions you. 0:00:54.760 --> 0:01:00.959 Have touch on defense after yesterday's game? This defense, it's 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:04.720 just like every week can It's been so consistently. 0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:08.000 Well. We're doing a good job, playing hard. Guys have 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:10.039 been physical up front. I think we've done it you know, 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:12.759 pretty good job in terms of the tackle tackle run 0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:17.760 game consistently. Uh you know, we've we've we've controlled the 0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:20.360 perimeter stuff generally. There's been some plays here and there, 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.920 some screens. They hit some screens yesterday they got some yards. 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:25.840 We've kept the ball in the run game pretty much 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:28.160 inside lately the last couple of weeks, nothing's really bounced 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:30.480 around us. That's big. I think we've kept the ball 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.640 in front of us. Deep stuff has been in front 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:35.760 of us. There hasn't been too much deep uh there 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.119 up till now. So we've got to continue to keep 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:39.720 building on that and keep looking for that. People are 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:41.520 going to look for opportunities to get shots and big 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:43.880 plays against us, So I got to keep doing those 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:49.000 kinds of things. So generally good, generally good sound, hard 0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:50.800 playing defense. I think our guys are doing a good 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:51.520 job with that. 0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:54.840 First time in a. 0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:57.360 Month and just being able to add him to the 0:01:57.400 --> 0:01:59.960 group of outsideline that it's already playing it online. 0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:03.280 Yeah, exactly right, he's he dad him in there. You know, 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:05.200 he's a guy that was jumping at the bit, you know, 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:08.080 to be right and be healthy. Came back, played hard, 0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.799 got a sack. I was good against the run. Just 0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:14.640 another good player, really good player. Obviously you want to 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:16.360 be full strength. We've got some other guys you know 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.560 that that are working their way back as well, So 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.160 always pulling for those guys to get back and be 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:27.000 healthy and be ready to go. 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:28.080 Season. 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.800 So far, kind of on pace for career years. What 0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:35.280 have you what have you seen in his evolution this 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:38.519 year that's you know, to take that next step of 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:41.200 kind of continued progression. What's what's he doing differently? 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.320 I guess from the same. I think he's continued to 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:46.120 grow ever since he's been here. He's always had, you know, 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:48.920 a lot of upside. For sure. You would see the 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:52.080 kind of dominant plays here and there, and he's probably 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.600 just I think he's just made more of those. You know, 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:59.360 he's more consistent, making more you know, dominant type plays, 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.519 you know, whether it's on our pass, more explosive, more 0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:04.359 consistent with his technique, all these kind of things that 0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.440 you would expect as a player would grow and get better, 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.840 who works as hard as he does consistently, you'd expect 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.280 his play to be more consistent. I think that's what's happened. 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:16.359 John, You again is talking more and more of him 0:03:16.360 --> 0:03:18.440 and Patrick Queen just sort of pumping up their market 0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:20.560 value week by week. Do you sort of look at 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:22.200 that as a as a good problem to have for 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:23.040 the short term release? 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:25.679 Yeah, I'm not really thinking about guys contracts right now, 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:27.040 thinking about the next game. 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:33.400 Yeah, you know, how much can you take that ignited 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:34.120 the offense? 0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:36.240 And how often have you done that? 0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:39.400 We've done We've done it from time to time. We've 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:40.920 had a game or two where we were planned on 0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:42.680 doing it this year and we didn't win the toss. 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.200 You know, the win games are a lot of times 0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:47.400 of win games, and you feel like, you know you're 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:49.600 gonna want to win in the fourth quarter for in 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.840 a close game. That's something that we've taken into consideration. 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.560 But probably you know, the added effect in this game 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:57.880 was that we started off so hot on offense. The 0:03:57.880 --> 0:03:59.800 fact that we were able to take the ball down 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:02.880 the field the way we did, uh, you know, was 0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.240 was just and we were into the wind. So that 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:07.600 was a big plus for us. I thought that was 0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.520 kind of made it an irrelevant point. You may have 0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:12.400 noticed in the third quarter we chose to take the 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.920 win in the third quarter instead of waiting to the 0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:16.640 fourth quarter. We figured we'd want to win and see 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:18.320 if we extend the lead at that point. 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:22.520 I mean, guys, he passes I think twenty years or 0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.400 more yesterday. Have you seen the deeper passing game of 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:26.760 all service season? 0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:28.720 Well, yeah, I mean a lot of stuff really came 0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:30.480 open a little a little more. I mean we had 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:32.840 some we had some good little ideas there as far 0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:35.520 as scheme wise, but uh, you know, if you run 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:38.560 the ball, well, uh, we had really good protection, so 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.920 it gave us time to let some of those routes unfold. 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:41.680 Uh. 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:43.360 Some of some other games when we had some of 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.800 those things called it didn't quite have as much time. 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:48.280 You know, all those things kind of go together, and uh, 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.800 you know that's what you have to have to get 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:51.600 the ball downfield. 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:53.800 I trying to put a lot with that little more. 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:56.760 I mean, especially thinking about the touchdown to Newlston Aguilar 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:59.080 or the patients and toys that he's shown, and especially 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:00.720 in his last game, can you say about that. 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.240 Yeah, he really does have good pocket presence. I mean 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:05.039 he's got a good feel in the pocket. He always has. 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.560 You know, sometimes sometimes it's almost too much. I mean 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:10.800 sometimes he'll really hold hold onto that ball. You know, 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:14.120 and I think he trusts his guys, his linemen to 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:18.480 hold on for him. He's protecting the ball well in 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:20.400 there for the most part. You know, in terms of 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:22.520 there's a balance between you want to protect the ball 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:24.160 number one, no doubt about it, but you also want 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:26.280 to extend plays and give guys a chance to get 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:29.040 open and then the ability to move. You know, Lamars 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:32.080 obviously great at moving, and then also I think sensing 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.120 people around him even outside the pocket, and then seeing 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:38.280 the receivers downfield. That combination probably showed up yesterday as 0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:41.000 much as it ever has. In terms of the playmaking. 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.560 John talked about how locked in the guys weren't practice 0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:48.240 all week. Did you expect them to come out firing 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:50.960 the way that they did pretty much Ball four quarters? 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:53.160 Yeah, I mean you always kind of do, you know, 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:54.960 and you're kind of disappointed when it doesn't happen, and 0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:56.320 when you when you practice the way you have, it 0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:58.080 hasn't just been one week of practice. I mean they've 0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:00.880 been practicing that way pretty much all along. We haven't 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:03.680 really had any practices where always felt like, hey, this 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:05.880 was not a good practice. You know, sometimes you gotta 0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:07.840 you got to crack the whip a little bit, but 0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:10.080 with these guys not really you know, it hasn't really 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.120 been that way. They've they've kind of come out every 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:14.280 practice and been ready to go. So he's gotta keep 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:16.120 building on that and getting better every practice. Should get 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:17.840 better as a season goes on, because you're better as 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.239 a team if you're locked in and focused. That should 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:22.000 continue to improve and building on itself. 0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:25.880 Played a lot of snaps, let the team tackles, have 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:26.279 the sack. 0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:27.920 Just what are you seeing from him? 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.159 Very productive game by Arthur, no question about it. Ryan, 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:33.760 I mean, he was all over the field. I felt 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:35.960 like even I told him this, I said, dude, you're 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:37.760 getting little gassed at the end because you know he's 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:41.040 playing special teams too, And he really was on a 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.640 lot of in on a lot of plays, run in pass, 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:47.200 Blitz got a sack, So he was really productive. Great 0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:49.360 to see. I think he's really fitting in well with 0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:51.760 the defense. When we saw. 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:56.000 Mar's little moment of frustration necessary after the exchange with Justice, 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:58.440 and they've had a couple of those. This year has 0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:00.960 been a different problem long with each one or is 0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:03.320 there the consistent thing they need to work on. 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:06.520 It's been a different problem with each one and it 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:08.160 is the thing they need to work on. Yeah, and 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.040 that's you know, you continue to do that. And we 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.000 have a ball handling offense. You know, we have a 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:15.160 lot of ball handling in our offense, more than most teams, 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.200 So probably is going to show up a little more 0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:19.440 than other teams. But that just means we have to 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:21.080 be that much better at it and that much more 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.360 aware of it. We don't want we want it. We 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:25.720 want perfection in that area. And that's why he was 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.200 so upset. We all were. You know, I was just 0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:31.000 as upset because that's not something that we want to have. 0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:32.280 You know, we want to be perfect in that. 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:38.520 Area because the season goes on and changes happ to 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:40.760 half right from brought up from and brought up haling 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:42.920 atoy any clown and people were not in. 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:46.360 The sure in the July who should hit the most 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:48.360 credit for bringing those players in it? 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:48.600 Are? 0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:49.760 Is it staff down on me? 0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:52.240 Who's doing their dirty words that make those players? Get 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:54.320 those players in here? It's a team effort, bo, It's 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:57.920 always a team effort. Everybody deserves credit. Everybody deserves playing. 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.720 That's that's your guys, that's your area. That's what you 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:05.320 do so well. The sign blame and credit give credit 0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:11.240 where credit is due, right, I mean, Eric's don a 0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.960 great job. And the the guy the scouts, Oh for sure, 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:15.400 the scouts are the ones who do that. I mean 0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:18.640 they're the personnel guys. And I say it all the 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.360 time and I'll say it again. I think we have 0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:23.800 the best in the business here, you know. And it's 0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:25.880 all of it goes. That's contract stuff that you know, 0:08:25.960 --> 0:08:28.920 I'm getting asked about over here about contracts and getting 0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:31.640 asked about you know, Janue, you know who we're looking 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:33.679 at in June for players and stuff like that. And 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.440 I'm just thinking about the Cardinals right now. So trying 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:37.120 to keep it simple. 0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:39.360 So it's physically from. 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.400 Lamar Jackson not satisfied to telling you some of the 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:43.280 guys on defense and not satisfied even though it was 0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:43.520 all win. 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:43.839 Where is it? 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:45.679 What does that say about where this team is that 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:46.240 mentally and. 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:47.120 Emotionally right now? 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:49.800 Well, it says they're right where they should be. Because 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:53.480 how many games we played so far? Seven? All right, 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.040 some means we've got ten more in the regular season. 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:57.400 Say we've got a lot of work to do. 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.200 Say two things on day Flowers what did you guys 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:07.839 see that that allowed him to be so open on 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:09.640 that first series yesterday. 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:12.120 You know, it's just a function of you just never 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:13.800 know what's going to happen. You never know who's going 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.560 to be open. You know, there's certain things that happen 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.439 on each play. If we had the tape, we could 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:20.040 probably go through it, you know, on each play and 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:21.600 look at it and see why it may have happened, 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:25.480 what coveras it was, Different things happen in different plays. 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:29.599 And then secondly, just how would you describe his you know, 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:33.360 he's had I think he's had seven straight games of 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:36.679 at least fifty yards each game. The only other guy 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:38.720 to do that is to Mark Chase since nineteen seven. 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:43.000 How would you describe his grasp of the offense for 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:44.720 guy who's you know, seven. 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:47.000 Games into the in his career, right, well, I would 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:49.120 say for seven games in Yeah, to your point, it's 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:51.160 probably as good as it could be. You know, he's 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.400 really diligent. You know, he's very smart, and yet you 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:56.079 know he's not anywhere near where he's going to be, 0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:58.199 you know, terms of understanding the offense. I mean he's 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.800 still learning. You know, he's still got word line up. 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.560 You saw it yesterday a few times. He's still learning 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:05.880 the nuances of the routes. Greg does a great job 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:09.160 with him. Greg Lewis and Keith Walliams both do a 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.560 great job with those guys. With all that. But he's 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:15.680 doing great. But you know he's got to He's going 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:17.160 to get a lot better and he needs to get better. 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:19.920 And I promise you he's very determined to keep getting better. 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:23.440 He's not thinking about that kind of a stat which 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:27.280 is very cool, but right now he's just thinking about 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:28.160 the Cardinals. 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:30.600 Running Stanley vision. 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:33.720 He channels internationally learned and driving block through the Angel 0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:35.680 Fay And you praise the offensive lineup of. 0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:38.559 The game when you watch the tape of the game again, 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:40.359 what most impressed. 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.360 Me about that group? I thought the pass protection. You know, 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.520 that was a really good pass rushing group. Bo They 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:47.720 very physical group that was going to try to basically, 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:50.439 it's a knockback pass rush, try to constrict the pocket 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.679 by closing the pocket on the quarterback. They'd done it 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.720 against everybody, they'd played really well, and they really weren't 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:57.680 able to do it as nearly as much with our 0:10:57.760 --> 0:10:59.560 offensive line, So that was that was a big plus. 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:01.400 Four us on interviewing the. 0:11:01.440 --> 0:11:04.199 Film, just of more of throwing the ball, you know, 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.280 other than buying time, and just how he executed the 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:07.880 passing game. 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.560 Did anything stand out to you and just hell you. 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:13.240 From that from that game and we're just watching rewatching. 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.800 The film start. Yeah, I mean it all stood out. 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:17.959 It's just a combination of things. It's it was. It 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:19.800 was the pass protection, you know, that was a big 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:21.680 part of it. I thought the guys ran routes super fast. 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:23.320 I mean when you look at the when you look 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:25.680 at the route running, you'll say, okay, someone came open, 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:29.920 like maybe Zay or or or or Dell or or 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.679 Bait came open on a crossing route right. Well usually 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:34.120 a lot of those times. I mean I remember, say 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:36.080 running a post out of there, or Mark they running 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.440 a post and Mark running a rail, and so those 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:40.480 routes are run a speed that drains the coverage and 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:43.280 here comes the crossing route across. Those are designs that 0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:45.839 you hope happened. But for those to happen, the guys 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:47.520 who aren't getting the ball have to be running their 0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.360 routes really fast and really effectively to do that. And 0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:52.760 that's not just the ball could go to them too 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:54.920 if they if the coverage doesn't drain out, you know, 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:57.760 if the coverage jumps the crossing routes. So everybody just 0:11:57.840 --> 0:11:59.520 going full speed as hard as they can, try to 0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:02.240 do things as right as they can. Every play I 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:04.080 think just kind of adds up over time, and then 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:06.319 guys hopefully get open, and then the protection needs to 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:07.559 hold up and then lamar and need to see it. 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:09.319 One time he came all the way back and he 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:13.040 hit bait to the right on a deep end stop route. 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:16.240 It was the fifth read in the progression. He a 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:18.160 had time to do it, be he had to where 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:21.520 with all you know, the understanding that just he's good 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.520 enough to get to his fifth read. That's pretty pretty 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:25.280 pretty great. 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:27.120 There's more passing. 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:28.760 A couple of times it looks like he just coulda 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.480 run and then had a football and one. 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:32.959 The coups that way and was another one. 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.880 How much is like his running ability. 0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:39.720 The element is Yeah. I mean I've been working real 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:41.800 hard with him on that myself personally, with his his 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.040 his running and then throwing late and seeing guys. So 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.160 I'm really glad. I've been kind of taking a lot 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:48.719 of pride in that myself. As a coach. You know, 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:52.720 that's that's just LaVar, That's Lamar, you know, b and Lamar. 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:53.839 I think it is one of his just some of 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:56.840 his innate talent. How he sees the game is pretty special. 0:12:58.160 --> 0:12:59.000 If you get any. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.760 Resolution on ties after last week, which I guess was 0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:02.280 a week he was. 0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:06.199 Talking to doctors. Yeah, no, no resolution yet, No resolution yet. 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.640 And I finished another injury question. Yeah you didn't. 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:12.640 But it was Keith Mitchell the only guy to get 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:13.760 banged up yesterday. 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:18.640 And was that a severe hamstring or right, yes, he was, 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.360 And it's not a severe hamstring. It'll be it'll be 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.560 week to week. You could outside chance for this week, 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:26.199 put more possible. 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:31.360 For next week, John, your players almost unanimously expressed that 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:35.480 they were unhappy with parts of their performance and their 0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:39.960 super production. When you look to take what areas can 0:13:40.000 --> 0:13:43.920 you kind of point to more specifically for fans that 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.800 you saw that you're wanting to work on. I'm looking 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:48.600 forward to like working into this week. 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:50.679 Yeah, I mean, we got the lists there. You know, 0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:54.240 it really doesn't need to be publicized. We're working on stuff. 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:57.839 You know, it's it's it's it's football stuff, you know, 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:01.160 and everybody everybody kind of has their thing too. There's 0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:04.280 big picture stuff I've got. I've got probably two really 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:06.280 big ones that I'm thinking about right now, and one 0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:08.199 on the east side of the ball. And then with that, 0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:10.320 you know, there's kind of a filtering of things all 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.920 the way across the board. It really is something that 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:15.559 is just part of the process every week, though, you know, 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:17.679 and the fact that our guys are bought into that 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:20.880 and conscious of that, you know, on a day to 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.160 day basis, really makes me feel like they have a 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:25.480 chance to really be successful. When you have a group 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:29.480 of guys players, people that think that way, then they're 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:32.680 thinking growth mindset. They're thinking that way in terms of 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:34.360 like we can get better, I need to get better, 0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:38.080 embracing the imperfection, so to speak. You know, that's a 0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:38.480 good thing. 0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:42.040 John, you've gotten a coach Lamarvel a couple of years now. 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:46.440 I know you probably handle some of the nothing surprises 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:48.200 you when you watch them out there. But thinking back 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.880 to that touchdown pass to Nowson, manager lot aware that 0:14:50.960 --> 0:14:51.840 play felt like it's. 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:54.400 Going on forever. What are your emotions. 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:54.680 During that. 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:58.960 Same as yours? Probably, I mean all the fans, you know, 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.320 I'm like I'm like, you know, I'm I can't believe 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:04.000 we've got fleshed out of the pocket. Why wasn't the 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:05.920 first route open or maybe the route wasn't running the 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.200 right way somewhere, And I'm mad. And then I'm then 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:09.880 I'm thinking, well, Lamar's get away and something, you know, 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:11.840 I'm thinking to find somebody, somebody get opened. Then the 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:13.960 ball goes up as a touchdown, and Ice scream for joint. 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:16.240 You know, inside I don't want anybody to see that, 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:19.520 you know, but it's the same that I will say 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.920 this in the red zone, especially everywhere, really everywhere defensive perspective, 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:26.720 the extended play is real. You know. It's something you 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:30.320 have to actually prepare to stop. And the teams that 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:32.280 do it better are the teams that are tougher to defend. 0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:35.320 So the ability to defend those are big, But the 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:38.080 ability to to UH, to extend plays and make plays 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:40.880 after the first play doesn't quite work the way you 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:43.480 want it to is a massive UH is a massive 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.840 part of football. So that's what happened on that play 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:49.000 was extended play. Lamar and Nelson did a great job 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:51.000 with it. So that's what you really that's part of 0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:53.360 the it's it's part of the it's part of the 0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:58.200 planned unplanned offense. Okay, so it's it's planned to be 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:00.640 unplanned sometimes and then you hope you guys can make 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:02.000 the most of it. Kna. 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:05.320 Now we're finished called the London questions. Now you're going 0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:10.200 out the other way out the Arizona is travel fatigue? 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:11.680 Is Is that a con? 0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:12.080 I mean? 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:12.720 Is that real? 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:15.720 And do you do anything in planning this week to 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:18.000 do anything different because you know you're going to be 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:19.440 coming to another times. 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:19.640 Of the game. 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:23.000 Right, it's all state of mind, Jameson, It's all state 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:25.440 of mind. You know, it's real if you make it real, 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:27.800 you know. But we're gonna go out there on Friday 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.280 like we always do on those on those West Coast trips, 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:33.440 and our guys will be raided roll Sunday. 0:16:33.880 --> 0:16:36.240 How bout getting and to the play a team that 0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:38.680 is just one winning. 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:38.920 On the year. 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:40.560 Yeah, I shouldn't have to. I mean, all you got 0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:41.880 to do is watch the tape and you see how 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:44.360 physical they are, how tough they are, how competitive they 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:46.720 are a team. And if we haven't learned that by 0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:48.520 if we have anybody in our team that doesn't understand 0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:50.640 how the NFL works, I'd be really disappointed. You know, 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:53.520 that's something that would really be a disappointment. And I 0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:55.240 don't think I'm going to be disappointed that way. 0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:56.200 John. 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:58.720
