- 0:00Speaker 1: Help at all of you guys kind of wit us
- 0:01Speaker 1: a few different times last year. Yeah, with Trevor just
- 0:04Speaker 1: being dated.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think just kind of the approach of
- 0:08Speaker 2: how you you get Trevor ready while.
- 0:10Speaker 1: Also having somebody else ready. And we're day to day.
- 0:13Speaker 1: So if something comes on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, so be it.
- 0:16Speaker 1: We're ready to play.
- 0:17Speaker 2: You know, our job, especially our job just in the
- 0:19Speaker 2: offensive uni room as coaching staff has just to put
- 0:21Speaker 2: to your best possible plan to attack the defense and
- 0:24Speaker 2: then within that what maximizes their basicallyel submiable.
- 0:27Speaker 3: To how big is it able to get CJ back
- 0:30Speaker 3: into building just I can imagine it's hard sometimes to
- 0:32Speaker 3: find a third quarterback that has as much experience as he's.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Had with yeah, exactly, especially in our system, experience in
- 0:38Speaker 2: the league as a starter, experience in the league.
- 0:39Speaker 1: As a backup, which is a very different mindset for you.
- 0:42Speaker 2: That's that's big comfort within the locker room, comfort within
- 0:45Speaker 2: the coaching staff. There's a lot of those things that
- 0:47Speaker 2: that CJ is very valuable to us to be able
- 0:50Speaker 2: to have in our room.
- 0:51Speaker 1: Back and on. So it's back get all the first
- 0:55Speaker 1: team reps this week.
- 0:56Speaker 2: Where do you make to Trevor in a little bit,
- 0:58Speaker 2: just Trevor being data day and limited throughout practice. You know,
- 1:02Speaker 2: we kind of make a match wherever available of who's
- 1:04Speaker 2: gonna get whatever rimp. It just kind of depends by period,
- 1:06Speaker 2: what the medical recommendation is.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Kind of it.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Trying to get Brian Thomas the ball a little bit
- 1:15Speaker 2: more this week, Yeah, certainly, And you know that's something
- 1:18Speaker 2: Philly did a good job at certain times and third
- 1:20Speaker 2: downs and some of the two minutes in the game, and.
- 1:23Speaker 1: That's something Big Danger has done forever.
- 1:24Speaker 2: Clouds, you're best receivers, the guy that provides the explosive element.
- 1:29Speaker 1: So there was no surprise to that.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Uh, you know, the end of the game, he saw
- 1:32Speaker 2: a bracket over him late, there are a couple of
- 1:34Speaker 2: third downs earlier, there's.
- 1:35Speaker 1: A cloud to him. So as that happens, that doesn't
- 1:38Speaker 1: mean we can't get the ball to him.
- 1:39Speaker 2: If there were opportunities there even within the game to
- 1:41Speaker 2: give him some targets in there that we think. You know,
- 1:44Speaker 2: he's certainly an element that is very explosive for offense,
- 1:47Speaker 2: provides a lot of juice to us, So.
- 1:48Speaker 1: We need to get him opportunities to get touches.
- 1:50Speaker 3: We tell him, you guys have played John Nick Ornard, Oh,
- 1:53Speaker 3: you know a lot since you guys have been here.
- 1:55Speaker 3: What kind of years he wre that happenings. Seems like
- 1:57Speaker 3: he's always been a good player, but the shee is
- 1:59Speaker 3: kind of exploded.
- 1:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's he's you know, in addition to
- 2:04Speaker 2: the whole thing that got going on in Minnesota. So
- 2:06Speaker 2: now you have this elite pass rush around one side
- 2:09Speaker 2: that's playing the run really well and doing a lot
- 2:11Speaker 2: of things, you know. I mean, Coach Floor has even
- 2:13Speaker 2: talked about the other day. He's got the spat splash playability.
- 2:16Speaker 2: But it's the down and down out type.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Of thing that he's doing that their defense as a
- 2:19Speaker 1: hole really does.
- 2:20Speaker 2: And then when it comes third down and it's obvious
- 2:22Speaker 2: pass situations throughout the course of the game. Now you
- 2:25Speaker 2: know you've got this guy over there that's a matchup
- 2:27Speaker 2: possibility as well as all the throat.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Of the pressure. Do you have to change up any
- 2:31Speaker 1: of your calls since you got a guy on the
- 2:32Speaker 1: sideline that literally was here two weeks ago.
- 2:35Speaker 2: No, I mean there's certain things that I think if
- 2:37Speaker 2: you take a guy out, if they're not specific to
- 2:39Speaker 2: this particular game plan.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Our game plan ebbs and flows each week. So if
- 2:43Speaker 1: you haven't been sitting in.
- 2:44Speaker 2: There since Wednesday when the game plan was installed, you
- 2:46Speaker 2: know exactly what we're gonna call in certain situations and
- 2:49Speaker 2: don't know that there's too much you're gonna be able
- 2:51Speaker 2: to provide.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Now, there's maybe certain code words things like that, but
- 2:54Speaker 1: at the same time, that's the chest not to but
- 2:56Speaker 1: we're aware of that.
- 2:57Speaker 2: We also go through our TV companies things that are
- 2:59Speaker 2: out there every single week. What are words that people
- 3:01Speaker 2: would hear that mean certain things, And that's kind of
- 3:04Speaker 2: you're early on.
- 3:05Speaker 1: In a game.
- 3:06Speaker 2: You know your certain tendencies. You know the things that
- 3:07Speaker 2: are out there. You you've worked to protectives, work to
- 3:10Speaker 2: protect our kills, our alerts, our code words that are
- 3:12Speaker 2: out there, and all it takes is they thought they hurt,
- 3:16Speaker 2: they thought something, that's something, and there was something else
- 3:18Speaker 2: and now nobody listens that person anymore.
- 3:20Speaker 1: And you know, that's kind of the same of coaches
- 3:22Speaker 1: going from team to team things like that.
- 3:24Speaker 2: So weren't aware of certain things, but you know, we're
- 3:27Speaker 2: also confident we're planning with football.
- 3:29Speaker 1: I know it's we don't know the nature of the injury.
- 3:31Speaker 3: You guys do obviously, but Trevor was able to play
- 3:34Speaker 3: through with a spraying ac joint last year.
- 3:36Speaker 1: So what's the the.
- 3:39Speaker 2: How does the the non throwing shoulder an injury to
- 3:41Speaker 2: the non throwing shoulder other than like an impact thing.
- 3:44Speaker 1: How does that? I guess impact quarterbacks bothing to throw
- 3:47Speaker 1: a play, you know in any way.
- 3:50Speaker 2: You know, I'd defer that to Ferry and uh, right
- 3:53Speaker 2: there and Trevor and how Trevor feels.
- 3:55Speaker 1: And certain things like that.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Is there a fine line that's one when you're trying
- 3:59Speaker 2: to get BTJ involved. Is there to find line between
- 4:03Speaker 2: force feeding and game planning and making sure that he
- 4:05Speaker 2: gets enough touches?
- 4:06Speaker 1: Yeah? I think so.
- 4:07Speaker 2: And we've always kind of been where we're put together
- 4:11Speaker 2: certain concepts for pure progressions, certain concepts or two man
- 4:14Speaker 2: rats where there's certainly the primary and then a checkdown option,
- 4:18Speaker 2: and so there's kind of the mix and match of
- 4:21Speaker 2: the perfect routina that now we're fortunate we.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Have a lot of good skill players.
- 4:24Speaker 2: So if bt is drawing covers to a certain area,
- 4:27Speaker 2: maybe we'll run the ball, maybe we have the opportunity
- 4:29Speaker 2: to get backside. But at the same time he needs
- 4:31Speaker 2: to impact the game force, and sometimes that's just you know,
- 4:34Speaker 2: his presence impacts the game force. But there's also he
- 4:37Speaker 2: needs the football, he needs opportunities to get the football
- 4:39Speaker 2: as well. So there's always kind of that fine line,
- 4:42Speaker 2: like you mentioned, of just how much is too much,
- 4:45Speaker 2: how much is force feeding, how much is restricting the
- 4:47Speaker 2: play of the offense just to get a guy as
- 4:49Speaker 2: many targets.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Or touches his gaming. Thanks for us, Thanks as me
