Clint Hurtt: "We Have To Get Back On Track" · Seahawks Press Pass

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: See hell everybody, Okay, how do you kind of assess
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: the game where you have multiple weeks and feeling really well.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: And then what do yeah?
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, well, you don't necessarily throw everything out, but
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: you grab the players that need to be obviously corrected
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: with the unit, and then you move on and you
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: get on to the next one. Obviously, it's a far
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: outline for where we've been going and where we've been
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: the direction the defense been going, so you try to
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: get on, make the corrections, move past it, and get
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: ready for the next opponent.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Obviously, with Washington tackling, I guess kind of seed to
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: be an issue.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: And I said, kind of is the game we're on
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: a little bit?
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: What what do you point toward?
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: That is why?
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, just you know, leverage of the football, guys
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: trying to create takeaways and going after the ball as
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: opposed to getting the player on the ground. You know,
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: things like that. Where is where you can be better at?
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: You know, most important thing is get the guy in
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: the ground so you can go play again, you know,
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: and just be timely and be smart about when you're
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: actually going for the ball when you have multiple, uh,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: multiple players for the football.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Cool Derek Hall seemed to have a pretty good game
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: before he was dealing with his shoulder.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: What was it about the way that he played or
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: what he showed you once some day?
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Uh, each game that's coming, that's he's played in the
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: last three, he started to play faster and faster, uh
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: more confidently, So I just wanna to see him continue
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: to take those steps in the right direction. Uh, just
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: being more physical to point of contact and getting off
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: of blocks faster. So just continue to see his development.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: But he's uh, he's definitely been showing up more.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Is there one particular pass rush move that Boyer has significantly.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Improved on this year? Yeah, it's cross chopped.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: You Last year he kind of did a lot of
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: different things and was trying to find his place and
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: get comfortable, but just working his crosschop with his inside arm,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: you know. And I don't want to get into the
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: whole details, but a crosshop in the club is really
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: what he's using, and that's when it's been his primary move.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: And uh, I'm looking forward to seeing him mixing his
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: counters and things like that because he has that readily
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: available when the time comes.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: But crosschop has really been his move this.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Year when you say that very similar, Sacha gets Cleveland.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Is that how you got.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: No that one he took? Uh, that was side sisters,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: counter side scissors, back inside. That's how he got a
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: sack on Cleveland. He came back underneath on that one.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Nass Shange kind of the same question and offense defensive wise,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: regarding all eleven players winning the individual battles and then
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: coming together there's a team. How important is it in
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: the bow back game for that to happen? Very important?
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: You know, obviously you want to get back on track
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: when you put the other one behind you. But guys,
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: everyone collectively playing as a unit, and uh yes, I
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: mean whether you're winning, you're playing the run game. Guys
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: got to strike blocks and when they're one on one matchups,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: if you get in a covered situations, it's the same thing.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Guys got to be sticky and when they're one on
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: ones there and win one on ones in pastors. So
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: all of it collectively matching together, meshing together. Uh, we
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: have to get back on track with that for sure.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Danger of a young quarterback who clearly has a big
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: arm but also isn't afraid to take shots, right He
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: hasn't seen enough football to know maybe what he shouldn't
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: try down.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's Uh, he's a competitive guy and plays with
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: a lot of moxie, a lot of confidence, as he should.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: He's a talented kid, and he has players around him,
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: so in watching them and watching him play, you can
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: see why they're players. You know, the teammates think a
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: lot of him.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Uh. He brings a lot to the game with his
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: competitive nature.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: He can make the throws, athletic guy that can extend
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: plays and get out of the pocket too.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Uh. So he's done a really nice jobt We have
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: a lot of respect for him. What did what did
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: you think of? Eletter Williams?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: And that's sort of how the line was coming together
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: or you know, kind of the line.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Really smart football player, a good communicator too, so obviously
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: coming in he really adapted and jumped in into things
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: like really really well. The guys really got on with
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: him good and then kind of was a really good mesh.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Usually the last thing that kind of comes along with
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: that is this pass rush and guys rushing off of
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: each other and kind of get a feel for how
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: guys you know, rush one on one a rushing D
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: line game, so that'll continue to get better each day
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: each week.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: What did Jordan show up this year? Blitzer?
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: He's always been an explosive guy. Uh in the Blitz
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: just a violent rusher. I think he's in all aspects
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: of his game, he's gotten better.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Would you get a rusher out of college?
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: So, like, given a high round guy, did they typically
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: have a big repertoire of moves that are refined or
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: that they have to find those.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: In the NFL.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Depends on where they come from. You know, there's a
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: lot of the guys I like, if they come from
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Ohio State. Larry Johnson's been one of the best D
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: line coaches and in the country NFL or college football
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: for decades. So generally you get a high Ohio State guy,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: they're well advanced when they come in, and in a
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: couple other guys obviously coming from the college level, but
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: for the most part, yeah, a lot of those guys
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: need some some tutelage and some refining when they get
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: in to really put the skills, the mastery with their
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: hands and rush angles and things like that, and understand
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: the protections and you know, when the slides coming to me,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: where I can get an overset from the tackle, you know,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: or when you know the protections away, so I got
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: a better chance of working up and under and set
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: up my counters for later in the game.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: All those things those take time, you know. So for
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: a young kid, that's why you see the big jumps
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: like my fee did. World.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Okay, I got three sacks my rookie year because this
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: is all new and foreign to me right now. This
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: year he can be very well bewill into a double
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: digit sack season. So it's just learning. It doesn't always
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: work and have been that fast, but the kids got
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: great work ethic, and he's really put the time in
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: on this game. Did you learn anything about Lend Williams
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: and maybe he didn't know that he could use in
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: a certain way. Yeah, I mean a lot of things
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: because they didn't know anything about him personally coming in
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: or his knowledge in terms of like football understanding, but uh,
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: just understanding how the fundamental part of him is really
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: really really good pad level hand, especially for a guy
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: that tall, uh plays with outstanding leverage. You can understand
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: the calls that's made on the old line where he
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: knows kind of where certain players were going are going
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: and then obviously in the past Rush aspect of his
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: ability to get on page with Jaron and dre H,
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: it was really good early on. So he'll just continue
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: to grow and come along with the group. So he
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: was impressive, did a lot of good things. He'll be
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: even better going.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Forward, they picture not just the May game.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: What if he done in the.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: Dirt down the last few weeks going into to Baltimore
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: was improvement, you know, starting going in the direction we wanted.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Took a little step back with a lot of things
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: obviously in that game, but it's coming along, you know,
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: with the Rush and obviously the covered stuff and the
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: guys being on the same accord. Will continue to get
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: better in that area, right, anything else
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Like Luke alright, yuh, take care, thank you,
