Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What type of coordinator is he?
- 0:02Speaker 2: He's one of the best coaches I've ever been around
- 0:04Speaker 2: in my life. He's meant a ton to me. He's
- 0:10Speaker 2: had an incredible impact on me. I have a huge
- 0:15Speaker 2: amount of respect for him. Obviously, you guys probably heard
- 0:17Speaker 2: me talk about him before. But I think, you know, he's,
- 0:22Speaker 2: from what we do, he's probably had a big effect
- 0:24Speaker 2: on us here. And I think a lot of other
- 0:27Speaker 2: coaches in this league would say that, too. Just the
- 0:29Speaker 2: guys who have been around him, super detailed, really, really
- 0:34Speaker 2: hardworking guy. But honestly, I feel like made everybody around
- 0:41Speaker 2: him better, made me better. And I have a ton
- 0:44Speaker 2: of respect for him because of that. That certainly helped
- 0:46Speaker 2: me in my career to help my family. So yeah,
- 0:49Speaker 2: I got a lot of respect for him.
- 0:51Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 0:52Speaker 4: What's Eric Murray on the field kind of leadership-wise mean
- 0:56Speaker 4: for this defense, and how hard is it if he
- 0:58Speaker 4: misses this week for a young player to step.
- 0:59Speaker 3: In and kind of replace that? Eric means a lot
- 1:01Speaker 3: to us.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Eric is one of the guys who's, you know, you
- 1:07Speaker 2: would kind of put him in a classification of he's
- 1:09Speaker 2: a coach on the field. You guys probably know that
- 1:12Speaker 2: from being in practice. He's just a really good communicator,
- 1:16Speaker 2: knows the ins and outs of the defense, you know,
- 1:18Speaker 2: and can kind of see problems before they start on
- 1:22Speaker 2: the field. So he's been great that way all the
- 1:25Speaker 2: way through like the entire season, last season, the beginning
- 1:28Speaker 2: of this season, um, he's been a big part of
- 1:30Speaker 2: our success. So, uh, you know, other guys, if they
- 1:33Speaker 2: have to step up and do that, I have total
- 1:35Speaker 2: confidence that they will, because we've really got a good
- 1:37Speaker 2: bunch of communicators back there.
- 1:38Speaker 3: And that's one of the things we're always looking for
- 1:41Speaker 3: at that position.
- 1:41Speaker 2: You know, a guy that has position flexibility one, um,
- 1:45Speaker 2: and then two smart guys, you know, guys that love
- 1:47Speaker 2: to play, they love to learn. And, uh, and obviously
- 1:51Speaker 2: know the ins and outs of all the calls and
- 1:53Speaker 2: learn football.
- 1:54Speaker 3: What growth have you seen from Jalen Husky since he
- 1:56Speaker 3: got here?
- 1:57Speaker 2: I think he's had a bunch of growth from the
- 2:00Speaker 2: spring to now. You know, a lot of the stuff
- 2:02Speaker 2: that we've been doing, I think he's improved on. So
- 2:06Speaker 2: I'm pleased with his progression at this point. And, you know,
- 2:10Speaker 2: I think other guys too, like Antonio has been part
- 2:13Speaker 2: of that too. Those guys constantly helping him and being
- 2:16Speaker 2: involved with him and his progress has been good for him.
- 2:20Speaker 4: What kind of season has he had and what kind
- 2:23Speaker 4: of impact does he have just on the.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Culture of that unit?
- 2:25Speaker 2: He's had a really good season so far, I think.
- 2:28Speaker 2: And we were just talking about Eric that way, you know,
- 2:30Speaker 2: and you could put Foye in that category.
- 2:34Speaker 3: He might be.
- 2:36Speaker 2: At that position just one of the smartest guys I've
- 2:39Speaker 2: ever been around. He's certainly a lot smarter than me. So,
- 2:42Speaker 2: you know, I went to Yale and I was a
- 2:45Speaker 2: bartender for about 10 years. So, you know, it's– He's
- 2:48Speaker 2: definitely a sharp guy, though. But he really is like
- 2:52Speaker 2: having a coach on the field. He knows everything. He's
- 2:56Speaker 2: on it before he walks in the building in terms
- 2:58Speaker 2: of what's going in new. He's totally prepared for that.
- 3:04Speaker 2: And the thing about that is a lot of times
- 3:06Speaker 2: you have guys who are smart. They can process the
- 3:09Speaker 2: whole thing. But maybe they don't have that element of
- 3:12Speaker 2: violence when they play. And he gets so much out
- 3:15Speaker 2: of his body in that regard. Like, he plays violent
- 3:18Speaker 2: as hell. And he's still able to keep that kind
- 3:21Speaker 2: of controlled rage about him and be a great communicator.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Even some of our communication as he's the green dot,
- 3:28Speaker 2: he's done a great job of it.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Coach, I'm sorry, what did it do for your stress
- 3:32Speaker 1: level late in the game? You got to play nickel,
- 3:35Speaker 1: and you got nobody else left on the sideline to
- 3:37Speaker 1: play defensive back.
- 3:39Speaker 2: I mean, were any crazy scenarios going through your head about,
- 3:43Speaker 2: I don't know, having to put foyer in safety or
- 3:44Speaker 2: anything like that if somebody else came.
- 3:46Speaker 3: No, I was just stretching to see if I had
- 3:47Speaker 3: to go in there. No, that.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Wouldn't have been good for anybody. But, no, you're just
- 3:55Speaker 2: kind of playing through the situation. I'll tell you this,
- 3:59Speaker 2: and I said this in our staff meeting, I thought
- 4:01Speaker 2: our coaches, our defensive coaches, they were phenomenal in the
- 4:06Speaker 2: game when all that was going on. because you get
- 4:09Speaker 2: to all those end-of-game situations, right, where you got seven
- 4:11Speaker 2: DBs in the game, whatever it is, and just getting
- 4:14Speaker 2: everything coordinated and us having to change on the fly
- 4:18Speaker 2: some of the things that we had in the game
- 4:20Speaker 2: plan we weren't able to do. So we had to
- 4:24Speaker 2: adjust on the fly and get some other guys in there,
- 4:26Speaker 2: and you're kind of crossing things off. Okay, we still
- 4:29Speaker 2: have this. We don't have that. You know what I mean?
- 4:31Speaker 2: So you're kind of moving it around. So in between
- 4:34Speaker 2: the series, as you're looking at what your next calls
- 4:38Speaker 2: are going to be, What can we go to? Okay,
- 4:40Speaker 2: we don't have that anymore. Can so-and-so do this? Let's
- 4:43Speaker 2: see if we can get him acclimated to get that right.
- 4:46Speaker 2: And our coaches, the DB coaches and all our linebacker
- 4:50Speaker 2: coaches did a great job with that during the game,
- 4:52Speaker 2: just getting everybody ready to go.
- 4:55Speaker 4: You say whooped the man a lot. We asked some
- 4:57Speaker 4: of the guys their favorite campisms. Where did that one
- 4:59Speaker 4: come from?
- 5:01Speaker 3: Whooped the man? I'll tell you what. Pete Jenkins, who
- 5:06Speaker 3: was here in the summer, I don't know if you
- 5:07Speaker 3: guys remember, Coach Pete.
- 5:09Speaker 2: But Coach Pete is a longtime defensive line coach, primarily
- 5:13Speaker 2: in the SEC.
- 5:14Speaker 3: You know, as a coach, they spent a lot of
- 5:16Speaker 3: his career at LSU. But he's had a.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Profound impact on me as a coach, really like at
- 5:21Speaker 2: every level of the defense. And that's something that really, honestly,
- 5:26Speaker 2: that comes from Coach Pete. And that's something that we've
- 5:29Speaker 2: always said. And we said it when I was coaching
- 5:31Speaker 2: in Miami. And that's really the process. There is a
- 5:34Speaker 2: process to everything. And that's job one. for our guys
- 5:38Speaker 2: and don't ever lose sight of that. Coaches, I think
- 5:40Speaker 2: we can make guys make things harder than they need
- 5:44Speaker 2: to be sometimes. And if you don't lose sight of
- 5:46Speaker 2: that in football, that's usually a pretty good thing. If
- 5:50Speaker 2: he's whooping that guy and I'm whooping this guy and
- 5:52Speaker 2: that guy over there is whooping that guy, well, it's
- 5:54Speaker 2: 11 on eight. I like our odds when it's 11
- 5:56Speaker 2: on eight. So that's the process for everybody. If we
- 6:00Speaker 2: got more guys doing that on a given play than
- 6:02Speaker 2: the offense does, we're gonna have a successful play.
- 6:05Speaker 4: Come up with some of the bars. You start dropping
- 6:08Speaker 4: stuff like God rewards those who run.
- 6:10Speaker 1: To the football.
- 6:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's just the truth. I watch a
- 6:13Speaker 3: lot of football, you know what I mean? I mean,
- 6:16Speaker 3: that's it.
- 6:18Speaker 2: One of the things, honestly, I mean, I believe in that.
- 6:20Speaker 2: I don't think that anybody can deny that. Great things
- 6:22Speaker 2: happen to people who run to the football, you know,
- 6:25Speaker 2: and you can't run to the football unless you're whipping blocks,
- 6:28Speaker 2: and you better be teaching guys how to do that fundamentally.
- 6:31Speaker 2: There's a science to that, and you got to spend time,
- 6:34Speaker 2: I think, at every level of the defense, And our
- 6:37Speaker 2: guys believe in that. We have incredible guys because we
- 6:41Speaker 2: have incredible buy-in from them, you know, to do that.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Our DBs do that pretty much every day. And that's, yeah,
- 6:48Speaker 2: to answer your question, hopefully I am answering it. That's
- 6:52Speaker 2: just the truth, man. If you're running to the ball,
- 6:54Speaker 2: great things happen to you. God loves people that run
- 6:56Speaker 2: to the football.
- 6:57Speaker 5: Ryan, you've often talked about the fact that teams need
- 7:00Speaker 5: to earn it. They have to make them stay on
- 7:03Speaker 5: the field for 10-plus pounds. 29th in yards per drive allowed,
- 7:08Speaker 5: but second in the league in points.
- 7:10Speaker 1: Per drive allowed.
- 7:11Speaker 5: What makes it so difficult in that red zone and
- 7:14Speaker 5: inside of that 30 for you guys, also speaking to
- 7:17Speaker 5: the guys who's buying into that process?
- 7:19Speaker 2: Yeah, some of that is I think I can do
- 7:21Speaker 2: things better. Every game you go back and you look
- 7:24Speaker 2: at it like, what do we want to do better?
- 7:26Speaker 2: There's things that I can do better. to help us
- 7:28Speaker 2: some of those plays that we are giving up, I
- 7:30Speaker 2: don't think should be there. You know what I mean?
- 7:32Speaker 2: So that part of it, I think we're still room
- 7:34Speaker 2: for growth. I think we can get a lot better,
- 7:37Speaker 2: and we're in the process of doing that right now.
- 7:40Speaker 2: But to answer your question, when you get down in
- 7:42Speaker 2: that area of the field, we look at it like
- 7:45Speaker 2: it's advantage defense. When the ball's on the seven-yard line,
- 7:49Speaker 2: the field is three times as wide as it is long.
- 7:52Speaker 2: So there are certain plays that you're going to see.
- 7:54Speaker 2: There are certain leverages that you can play and it
- 7:57Speaker 2: becomes more advantageous. There's certain ways to call the defense
- 8:01Speaker 2: where you can take things away because there's things you
- 8:03Speaker 2: don't have to worry about so much in that area
- 8:06Speaker 2: of the field. And I think teaching the players that,
- 8:09Speaker 2: when you talk about situational awareness, and Liam talks about
- 8:12Speaker 2: situational masters on the team, there's things that come into
- 8:18Speaker 2: play in the red zone that I think are just
- 8:21Speaker 2: fundamental across the league and really across every level of football.
- 8:25Speaker 3: And when you learn those things, you're not surprised by them.
- 8:27Speaker 2: I talked last week about playing with anticipation, and that's
- 8:30Speaker 2: the most important thing, you know, that you can anticipate what's.
- 8:34Speaker 3: About to happen. And there are certain clues as to
- 8:36Speaker 3: when those are going to happen.
- 8:37Speaker 2: And we're trying to give the guys those clues every week,
- 8:41Speaker 2: you know, when they're showing up. And, you know, to
- 8:44Speaker 2: the players' credit, they're bought into that. They're bought into it.
- 8:48Speaker 2: They believe that just make them snap it again. You've
- 8:50Speaker 2: got to defend every blade of grass. If it's not in,
- 8:53Speaker 2: it's not in.
- 8:56Speaker 4: At Travis's best game as a pro?
- 8:58Speaker 2: I thought, yeah, I thought overall that was Travis's best game.
- 9:02Speaker 2: I think he's becoming more comfortable. I talked about last
- 9:05Speaker 2: week too, you know, just his eyes and fundamentals. I
- 9:08Speaker 2: thought all that, I think all that is improving. So
- 9:11Speaker 2: I think each week we're seeing more improvement from him.
- 9:15Speaker 2: He's really working hard at it.
- 9:16Speaker 3: He really is. He's working hard in the individual.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Matt, Aruzo's doing a great job with him in the
- 9:22Speaker 2: drills and everything, you know, and just, him knowing the
- 9:25Speaker 2: system and being more comfortable. Obviously, like anything else, the
- 9:28Speaker 2: more you play, the more comfortable you are.
- 9:31Speaker 4: Was there a play that you were more excited for,
- 9:33Speaker 4: the hit that he made.
- 9:34Speaker 3: The interception and the move afterwards, or laying the block
- 9:36Speaker 3: to Jalen? Yeah, they were all. When he caught the interception,
- 9:40Speaker 3: I was feeling great.
- 9:40Speaker 2: I'm like, I was kind of standing right there, and
- 9:44Speaker 2: I know how hard he is to tackle, so I
- 9:46Speaker 2: felt good about his opportunity to generate some yardage. But
- 9:51Speaker 2: I also think that the tackle he made on their
- 9:53Speaker 2: sideline physicality that he's been playing with, got a chance
- 9:57Speaker 2: to show that.
- 9:58Speaker 3: So that was great to see too.
- 10:00Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm excited for him just really in every
- 10:04Speaker 2: facet because I think he is improving.
- 10:07Speaker 4: What do you remember about working with Sean Banyan and
- 10:08Speaker 4: Green Bay and just.
- 10:09Speaker 3: Kind of his approach to things? He's a, Sean's a
- 10:11Speaker 3: great football coach, great guy.
- 10:15Speaker 2: And I thought he was an extremely hard worker. You know, we're,
- 10:18Speaker 2: both in their late hours a lot. So he's one
- 10:22Speaker 2: of the guys you'd see in there.
- 10:23Speaker 3: You know what I mean? So he's no stranger to
- 10:27Speaker 3: hard work.
- 10:27Speaker 2: And, yeah, I thought he was, or think I should say,
- 10:32Speaker 2: is a really, really good football coach, super detailed, really,
- 10:35Speaker 2: really bright. Obviously anybody that's played quarterback that long in
- 10:37Speaker 2: the NFL, you know, you have a really good knowledge
- 10:39Speaker 2: of the game.
- 10:40Speaker 3: And I think he brings that to the offense.
- 10:44Speaker 1: I suppose might be without their top two rushers this week.
- 10:48Speaker 1: You guys are obviously a very good run defense. How
- 10:50Speaker 1: do you guard against, you know.
- 10:53Speaker 5: Taking plays off or kind of the mentality dropping because Saquon.
- 10:57Speaker 3: Might not be a problem? I think all you got
- 10:59Speaker 3: to do is watch their games. You know what I mean?
- 11:01Speaker 2: They've done a lot of great stuff this year. Last week,
- 11:04Speaker 2: you know, they had a great opportunity to win that game.
- 11:08Speaker 2: And they got a lot of great players on their offense.
- 11:10Speaker 2: They got a quarterback that's played in two Super Bowls,
- 11:13Speaker 2: you know, and has played phenomenal in both of them.
- 11:15Speaker 2: So I don't think there's any of that in here.
- 11:19Speaker 2: You know, we know what we're up against. We know
- 11:21Speaker 2: that there's great coaches on that side. I know the
- 11:23Speaker 2: coaches on that side of the ball offensively and defensively.
- 11:26Speaker 2: So I know that it's going to be a great challenge.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Our players know that. And we're going to have to
- 11:31Speaker 2: go out there and play against some great football players.
- 11:33Speaker 3: So we've got to execute and do our best here
- 11:35Speaker 3: on Sunday. Thanks, James.
- 11:38Speaker 1: Appreciate it.
- 11:38Speaker 3: Thanks, guys.
- 11:40Speaker 1: What sort of stands out about this Eagles defense?
- 11:42Speaker 6: What makes them a challenge?
- 11:43Speaker 1: There's a lot of things.
- 11:45Speaker 6: I think you start with the coordinator and the system
- 11:47Speaker 6: that Coach Fangio's run there in Philly and really over
- 11:50Speaker 6: the years. And not only that system, the success it's
- 11:53Speaker 6: had at his multiple stops, but the way he's evolved
- 11:55Speaker 6: it in Philadelphia. When you look at the front, the
- 11:57Speaker 6: amount of variation they can present in all different personnel packages,
- 12:01Speaker 6: whether it's four defensive linemen on the field, five defensive
- 12:04Speaker 6: linemen on the field, shoot three defensive linemen on the field,
- 12:06Speaker 6: and then it's the same thing at every level of defense.
- 12:08Speaker 6: When you talk about the back end, They can play
- 12:11Speaker 6: so many different coverage structures and they can adjust those
- 12:13Speaker 6: coverage structures based on the tendencies that we show, based
- 12:16Speaker 6: on tendencies that other people show, based on our formation,
- 12:19Speaker 6: based on motion, based on alignments.
- 12:21Speaker 1: So there's so much variability.
- 12:22Speaker 6: So it looks really simple maybe at times, but it's
- 12:25Speaker 6: so complex for an offense to have to attack it,
- 12:27Speaker 6: which really is a testament to the way they built
- 12:29Speaker 6: that and how coordinated they are from the back end
- 12:32Speaker 6: to the front end, knowing that things are simple for
- 12:34Speaker 6: them and complicated for us to attack.
- 12:38Speaker 4: What kind of impact does he add on you just
- 12:40Speaker 4: with the way he designs and calls the run game?
- 12:44Speaker 1: So much. So much.
- 12:45Speaker 6: You're setting me up for probably a two-hour answer there
- 12:48Speaker 6: with that one.
- 12:49Speaker 1: I think it starts with the mentality that.
- 12:51Speaker 6: He brings to the run game and really the culture
- 12:53Speaker 6: that he set here in Jacksonville with the way we
- 12:55Speaker 6: attack everything. Because the run game, in a sense, is
- 12:59Speaker 6: an attacking play for us. We're not always going to
- 13:02Speaker 6: have a perfect look and a run schemed up exactly versus–
- 13:06Speaker 6: the front or a pressure or a linebacker alignment that
- 13:09Speaker 6: we want every time. But it starts with the mentality
- 13:11Speaker 6: of a way we're going to run the ball, a
- 13:13Speaker 6: way we're going to hit blocks. There's a fundamental technique
- 13:15Speaker 6: to every run, whether I'm a running back or I'm
- 13:18Speaker 6: an offensive lineman hitting a double team or on a
- 13:20Speaker 6: wide zone man reach and I'm blocking by myself. And
- 13:23Speaker 6: those things carry over to every concept we run. Now
- 13:26Speaker 6: we will try to do our best to put our
- 13:27Speaker 6: players in the best position to be successful.
- 13:29Speaker 1: We always want to be in an advantage position.
- 13:31Speaker 6: But everything kind of falls back into the mentality that
- 13:34Speaker 6: Liam's established with the entire team, but specifically the run game,
- 13:37Speaker 6: specifically the offensive line, tight ends, running back group. When
- 13:39Speaker 6: those guys get together, it's a mentality that we have
- 13:42Speaker 6: to find a way to run the ball no matter
- 13:44Speaker 6: who we play, where we play them, anytime, anywhere. I'm
- 13:46Speaker 6: sure you've heard him say that time and time again.
- 13:48Speaker 6: But that's something that he lives out with the way
- 13:50Speaker 6: we game plan runs, the way we practice runs, the
- 13:52Speaker 6: way we talk about runs, the way we meet about
- 13:53Speaker 6: the runs.
- 13:54Speaker 4: What's your relationship like with Trevor? He says sometimes in
- 13:56Speaker 4: the meeting room he tries to crack a joke to
- 13:59Speaker 4: get you laughing a little bit.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. I laugh every now and then. I mean,
- 14:03Speaker 1: those guys think we're just all business all the time.
- 14:05Speaker 1: We got a lot of things to do. We got
- 14:07Speaker 1: work to get done. Now, those guys know I don't
- 14:09Speaker 1: like to waste time.
- 14:10Speaker 6: So he does a great job of managing that balance
- 14:13Speaker 6: between we're still having fun. I think what's enjoyable about
- 14:17Speaker 6: him and the guys is I know I love being
- 14:19Speaker 6: around a guy like him. I love being around the
- 14:21Speaker 6: guys that we have. And hopefully they appreciate the group
- 14:24Speaker 6: that we have in offense and hopefully the work that
- 14:26Speaker 6: we put in as coaches to get the guys ready
- 14:28Speaker 6: to go. So it's that nice balance between we're in
- 14:30Speaker 6: there and we're being efficient and getting work done. And
- 14:33Speaker 6: Trevor does a great job of keeping it light along
- 14:34Speaker 6: with some of the other guys in there. When these
- 14:36Speaker 6: days get long, we're going over the details of things
- 14:38Speaker 6: for the 5,000th time. And I'm sure they're sick of
- 14:41Speaker 6: me reminding them or asking them the question. Cause I
- 14:43Speaker 6: don't remind them. I make those guys talk and ask
- 14:45Speaker 6: them to speak up and answer questions a.
- 14:47Speaker 1: Certain way with very specific verbiage.
- 14:49Speaker 6: But to answer your question on Trevor, that's another one
- 14:52Speaker 6: where you really set me up for a two hour
- 14:53Speaker 6: answer there. I don't have enough good things to say
- 14:56Speaker 6: about a guy like Trevor. When, you get the Jacksonville
- 14:59Speaker 6: and you see Trevor from afar, you hear all of
- 15:02Speaker 6: these different things about this quarterback's like that, or that
- 15:04Speaker 6: quarterback's like that. And he's just exceeded every expectation in
- 15:08Speaker 6: the sense of who he is as a person. I'm
- 15:10Speaker 6: so thankful and appreciative of the way he shows.
- 15:13Speaker 1: Up to work.
- 15:14Speaker 6: Not only the humility that you guys see where he
- 15:16Speaker 6: just attacks every single day with such an appreciation for
- 15:19Speaker 6: the process that we put forward, but the willingness to
- 15:22Speaker 6: get coached a player of his caliber of his ability
- 15:25Speaker 6: and the success that he's had on the field.
- 15:27Speaker 1: To be able to come into work every.
- 15:29Speaker 6: Day and still have that beginner's mindset and growth mindset
- 15:31Speaker 6: and want to get better at things and want to
- 15:33Speaker 6: know the details and want to find ways to improve
- 15:35Speaker 6: and want to find ways for his teammates to improve
- 15:37Speaker 6: is so exceptionally rare that it's probably a good reminder
- 15:40Speaker 6: that I get questions like this. So I don't take
- 15:42Speaker 6: things like that for granted, but I could talk for
- 15:44Speaker 6: hours and hours about his commitment to the process, his
- 15:46Speaker 6: ability to stay in the moment, his ability to appreciate
- 15:49Speaker 6: his teammates and work with guys and communicate how much
- 15:51Speaker 6: he's grown from a leadership standpoint and The talent stuff,
- 15:54Speaker 6: that stuff speaks for itself. You guys can probably look
- 15:56Speaker 6: at the tape or go to a game and see
- 15:57Speaker 6: the talent. Everyone knows the athleticism, the arm talent, all
- 16:00Speaker 6: those things. But who he is as a person, the
- 16:02Speaker 6: way he carries himself as the leader of our offense,
- 16:04Speaker 6: leader of our team, at the quarterback room, the impact
- 16:07Speaker 6: that he has is really immeasurable.
- 16:09Speaker 5: From a preparation point of view, how much does having
- 16:12Speaker 5: that overlap or some of that overlap between camp system
- 16:15Speaker 5: and big system, does that help with preparing and being
- 16:19Speaker 5: familiar as far as that's concerned?
- 16:20Speaker 6: That's a great question because one thing that– we're really
- 16:24Speaker 6: fortunate to have here in Jacksville is coach Campanelli's defense
- 16:27Speaker 6: to go against every day. The, the cliches of iron
- 16:30Speaker 6: sharpening iron or that, that saying applies every single time
- 16:34Speaker 6: we get out there and we get to go against
- 16:35Speaker 6: our defense. So we're very fortunate to go against a team.
- 16:38Speaker 1: That's a defense.
- 16:39Speaker 6: I should say that's very well coordinated in the back end,
- 16:41Speaker 6: very well coordinated in the front end and finds ways
- 16:44Speaker 6: to attack you from really all angles from pressure points,
- 16:47Speaker 6: from coverage, doesn't matter what he's playing. He's going to
- 16:49Speaker 6: put stress on you as a play caller, as an
- 16:50Speaker 6: offensive lineman, as a quarterback to identify the defense, But
- 16:53Speaker 6: what's really nice about Coach Campanelli's system is that there
- 16:56Speaker 6: are so many things that have been taken from different systems.
- 16:59Speaker 6: He's been in so many different things. Shoot, from the
- 17:01Speaker 6: time he's coaching offense in college football or he's coaching
- 17:04Speaker 6: high school football to coaching with all these great defensive
- 17:07Speaker 6: coaches in the NFL, and he's found ways to marry
- 17:09Speaker 6: all that system together. And from an offensive coach's standpoint,
- 17:13Speaker 6: really a beautiful way to see that thing come together,
- 17:15Speaker 6: how well-coordinated it is. So not only does it help
- 17:18Speaker 6: us on weeks like this, where there are certainly things
- 17:20Speaker 6: that are different between Coach Fangio's system and Coach Campanelli's,
- 17:22Speaker 6: But it helps us on weeks when we play. Basically,
- 17:26Speaker 6: any week up until this point, when we play New England,
- 17:28Speaker 6: there are things that are similar. Even though he may
- 17:30Speaker 6: not have been with the defensive staff there, there are
- 17:32Speaker 6: things that he's brought from different places that are very
- 17:35Speaker 6: similar to the way New England would attack us or
- 17:37Speaker 6: previous weeks Cleveland would have attacked us.
- 17:39Speaker 1: So because of the variability that.
- 17:41Speaker 6: He presents as a defensive coordinator and the variability of
- 17:44Speaker 6: our defensive personnel, it's another huge blessing to be in
- 17:47Speaker 6: Jacksonville to go against that every day and throughout training camp.
- 17:50Speaker 4: How much of an art is there to scheme busters?
- 17:52Speaker 4: You put one thing on tape and then a couple
- 17:54Speaker 4: of weeks later, the same setup, do something different.
- 17:57Speaker 6: There's certainly a balance to that because you don't want
- 18:00Speaker 6: to get away from the things that you've practiced over
- 18:02Speaker 6: and over again and have gotten good at. Now we
- 18:06Speaker 6: know that they're practicing those things that we put on
- 18:08Speaker 6: tape time and time again, but there's only so much
- 18:11Speaker 6: time in the week. So you've tried to find the
- 18:13Speaker 6: balance of where do we want to evolve each week?
- 18:16Speaker 1: Where do we want to evolve throughout the season?
- 18:18Speaker 6: And how can we do the same things that we've
- 18:20Speaker 6: practiced over the course of the entire offseason differently? Meaning
- 18:24Speaker 6: we're going to run that same play we've already ran,
- 18:26Speaker 6: but maybe now it's in different personnel.
- 18:28Speaker 1: Maybe it is the same exact presentation. We're going to
- 18:30Speaker 1: line up and run it again.
- 18:31Speaker 6: Because over the course of a season, we've put 1,000
- 18:33Speaker 6: plays on tape. They can't possibly rep every single play
- 18:36Speaker 6: when they look at all of our plays from this season,
- 18:37Speaker 6: all of our plays from last season. So it's finding
- 18:39Speaker 6: that balance. I don't think there's a perfect science to it.
- 18:42Speaker 6: It's a little bit more of an art form of
- 18:43Speaker 6: finding the in-between of, We need to evolve on the
- 18:45Speaker 6: things we've done and scheme things up perfectly for a
- 18:48Speaker 6: certain look between doing something that we've done a hundred times.
- 18:52Speaker 6: And we say, we've done this really well. And our
- 18:54Speaker 6: guys are going to find a way to execute it,
- 18:55Speaker 6: even if they might know or have an idea that
- 18:57Speaker 6: we could do this out of this formation. I can't
- 19:05Speaker 6: answer that one. Am I allowed to pass? Am I
- 19:07Speaker 6: allowed to pass on those? I'll tell you what I
- 19:09Speaker 6: was thinking on it. I was thinking first down once
- 19:11Speaker 6: Jacoby knocked the ball out of bounds.
- 19:12Speaker 1: That's what I was thinking. No, we... we talk about.
- 19:15Speaker 6: What now with the guys, we got to live in
- 19:16Speaker 6: the present moment. So same thing for coaches. I can't
- 19:18Speaker 6: be on the sideline, just like Liam's not freaking out
- 19:21Speaker 6: about plays like that.
- 19:22Speaker 1: We got to move on. It's a first down and
- 19:24Speaker 1: we got to get the next play call going.
- 19:25Speaker 5: You mentioned Jacoby, just how much of a like positive
- 19:29Speaker 5: is it to have a veteran presence where he's played
- 19:31Speaker 5: enough ball to know, Hey, I'm not going to try
- 19:33Speaker 5: to scoop this up and run the other way.
- 19:35Speaker 1: I'm just going to hit it and move on. Yeah.
- 19:37Speaker 6: That's a great example of, the veteran presence in a
- 19:41Speaker 6: situation like that, but it shows up in route running.
- 19:43Speaker 1: It shows up in blocking. It shows up and there
- 19:46Speaker 1: are all these sorts of plays.
- 19:47Speaker 6: I can think back to even a play we ran
- 19:49Speaker 6: against Denver last year where we're on a transportation series.
- 19:52Speaker 6: I mean, we're pitching the ball to the outside, and
- 19:55Speaker 6: he's coming down on a block down to an inside player,
- 19:58Speaker 6: and he ends up having to block two guys on
- 20:00Speaker 6: the play, but his ability to recognize the defense that
- 20:02Speaker 6: we're running that play against a look that we may
- 20:04Speaker 6: not have practiced against, and we really did not want
- 20:06Speaker 6: to run that play into that look.
- 20:08Speaker 1: He makes it work by it.
- 20:09Speaker 6: Not only recognizing the issue, but recognizing how quickly I
- 20:12Speaker 6: can fix that issue on a run play. So for
- 20:15Speaker 6: a receiver to have that level of awareness and to
- 20:16Speaker 6: be able to execute those things, just like knocking the
- 20:18Speaker 6: ball out of bounds backwards in that situation, those are
- 20:22Speaker 6: things that are really hard to teach in the course
- 20:25Speaker 6: of a week or to get a rookie up to
- 20:27Speaker 6: speed to do that because it takes so much time
- 20:28Speaker 6: just to get guys to understand a game plan, that
- 20:31Speaker 6: little nuances like knocking the ball backwards out of bounds
- 20:34Speaker 6: or recognizing this pressure is going to be a problem
- 20:36Speaker 6: on this specific run when I'm going in here, how
- 20:38Speaker 6: can I fix that? hit all of those details and
- 20:40Speaker 6: walk through those reps. It's just not possible with the
- 20:42Speaker 6: time constraints in a week.
- 20:44Speaker 5: Jalen Carter, Jordan Davis, Moro, Jomo, can you just speak
- 20:48Speaker 5: to the challenge that's up in front of this interior
- 20:50Speaker 5: offensive line for this week and how that may impact
- 20:52Speaker 5: the game?
- 20:52Speaker 6: Yeah, you hit the names right there, and there's more
- 20:56Speaker 6: beyond that with Grenard and many more behind those guys.
- 21:01Speaker 6: Kind of one of the unique challenges of this is
- 21:04Speaker 6: that there's not going to be a point where you
- 21:06Speaker 6: can say, They've got a great defensive lineman who's out
- 21:09Speaker 6: of the game right now. Now we can get to, okay,
- 21:11Speaker 6: take a breath and call play where we don't have
- 21:13Speaker 6: to worry about a certain defensive lineman because they're always
- 21:16Speaker 6: going to have good interior rushers or penetrators or disruptors,
- 21:19Speaker 6: whether it's a run game or a pass game.
- 21:20Speaker 1: They're always going to have good edge guys out there.
- 21:23Speaker 6: So it's nice to know, I guess, that the consistency
- 21:27Speaker 6: of calling the game, you're going to have that problem
- 21:29Speaker 6: either way. So you try to design things to change
- 21:31Speaker 6: our protections, to help guys when we need to help.
- 21:33Speaker 6: and you mix and match all the different things, whether
- 21:35Speaker 6: it's run game or pass game, of the way you're
- 21:37Speaker 6: hitting blocks or hitting, attacking defensive linemen. But at the
- 21:40Speaker 6: same time, we know those guys can move, so they're
- 21:43Speaker 6: not going to be in perfect place. So it kind
- 21:44Speaker 6: of goes back to that attacking mentality that we talked
- 21:46Speaker 6: about with the run game that Liam's established here that
- 21:48Speaker 6: we kind of have to have with attacking personnel, knowing
- 21:51Speaker 6: there's going to be a down where one of our
- 21:53Speaker 6: offensive linemen.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Is one-on-one with one of those guys.
- 21:56Speaker 6: And what are the techniques, what are the fundamentals that
- 21:57Speaker 6: those guys can fall back on that we've trained all offseason.
- 22:00Speaker 1: That will allow them to win there? Awesome. Thank you, guys.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Appreciate it.
