  Speaker 1: How were we all doing good? How are we doing good?
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: So?
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: What do you think of the game on Sunday?
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Kind of like like a whirl win in the first quarter.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: You know, I've been in some of those games before.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: It's kind of the you hit that first drive and
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: we got off the field on that fourth down stop
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: and then it was just like go, go go, and
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: kind of I thought, the guy has done a very
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: good job staying in it, staying poised in those moments
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: and playing consistent football. And as a team, obviously they
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: played we played really complimentary, but like I was a defense,
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: it was a consistent play for the first half. That
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: kind of was something you came away happy.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: With when you have that big of a win. Is
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: it uh still easy to come back and find things
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: to coach up and get the guys to to lock.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Into Yeah, most definitely.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I think that was when when a game goes like that,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: the number one thing is locking in because it's hard.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: It's hard when you I think I can't remember what
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: the score. I think the score was like thirty eight
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: three at halftime or thirty eight six, I don't know,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: but making sure you come out how important the first
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: drive is, How important, like because every drive then becomes
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: for the other team. They have to score, they have
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: to like and just managing those and understand that because
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: I feel in those situations at times, I've been on
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: teams and being around situations where you lose focus and
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: you lose and you make those tiny little errors or mistakes,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: or we might be soft in certain things that we do.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: It's like being being brave enough to like still press,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: still step on the gas. And I thought there was
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: like in this in the kind of middle of the
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: third quarters orders.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: They've done a great job of that. I think say
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: that we're going to be arguing, it's never say you
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: have in this year? What do you like?
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Nows round stuff proby everyone owns their role.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I think that's the number one thing.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: When you play a round defense, like it's a grimy game,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: you know, especially like sometimes you do it from a
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: split safety shelves we do, and someone that's that there's
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: a couple of players I have to have very hard
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: downs and you see there's a there's probably like four
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: players this year where Leo splits a double team, grabs
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: a running back and tackles him in the backfield. Like
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: when people own their roles like that you can be
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a good run team. But I think the thing about
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: as we grow is understanding like we have to do
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: this down after down, week after week, and and just
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: for us, I think the guys, this is what we
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: say to them, and they're starting to say it themselves,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: just like the consistency of players something you can't get
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: ahead of yourself.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: You just we have to win this week, you know.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: The way that the secondary sort of man is having
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: some different people to different roles. The last couple of weeks,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: I guess what's been kind of the most impressive too years.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Do that about that?
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I think it goes from Mike's message, you know, like
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Mike talks about like can people play their best football
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: with us? You know, And so when a guy comes in,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: it's like, coaches, how do we develop this guy?
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: How do we get him up to speed?
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: How do we challenge him or have a vision for
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: him that's bigger than his vision maybe sometimes And I
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: thought Ky Scott has done a great job on that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: I thought Jeff how has done a great job with Tye,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: you know, like getting people to come in understand what
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: their role is, how they do it in the game,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: and how they own it and they're done a good
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: job of it this week.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: When you have a guy like Darien Kendrick come in
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: and get a couple of interceptions in a couple of games,
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: would have wanted a couple more, and then you potentially
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: get back to reinforcements. How do you manage that with
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: with with guys and manage the change in the defense.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I think it's the same thing you ask me, not
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: you personally, but you guys ask a lot every week.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Is like, this is a game where competition should be
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: at its highest. I think where if a defense is
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: going to play very well, every position needs to be challenged,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Like every position needs to be playing really good football
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: as and the guys behind them play really good football.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: And you you just keep playing and then when you
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: get your opportunity, can you make plays? Can you make
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: plays consistently not just splash plays?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: And that helps us as a group. And I think
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: you have to ask the guys, but I see a
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: lot of buy into that way.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I see a lot of people that when other people
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: are in are making plays that play the same position,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: they celebrate those guys and that makes you feel good
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: about what we do.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Leo was miked up for.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: The Steelers game that you mentioned the pre game that
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: now having a year like he had last year and
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: make gifting the curse, the curse being obviously the intention
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: to getting the opponent.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: What is what do you see from them to make that?
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I guess not the turn so far where he seems
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: to be.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Playing just as well.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, I do. We do a lot of work
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: on that.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: You know, I think like as a coach and coaches,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: we have to help players not just get one on ones,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: but understand how they beat doubles, how they play those situations.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I've had that a couple of times in my career
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: where you have to look at a situation that you
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: put a player in, make him understand what he's doing
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: and why he's doing it, and show where the opportunities are.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: And sometime a lot of times they can thrive in
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: those positions and he's gonna keep making those plays they're
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: au uh A talk of maybe patience with the whoever
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the star player is in that regard of like how
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: often he is gonna get attention in that kid.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Hops, No, you should take it as a.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: You should take it as like a good thing, like
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: they're looking at you and you have to win. You're like, uh,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: like the good players in this league they win in
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: those situations. And Leo's doing a good job of that.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: That's like, that's that's how they sustain good play.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: Obviously, you guys have been playing pretty high level defense.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Maybe one little knit is quarterbacks have kind of been
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: escaping some of the pressure and you got a guy
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: this week in Kyler Murray that's.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Pretty darn hit at that.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: So it is that an area of a concern focus.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: For you guys, that's a concern. It's not I I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: would say not concerned.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I would say it's an era of growth that we
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: have to do and a l a lot of that's
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: on me to that personally.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I'll go communicate better.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: I've got to get us to understand how we rush
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: in certain situations.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: It's not like it's happening all the time. It happens
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: at certain times, and I've.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Got to do a better job of teaching the guys
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: we're actually going through that over there, of making sure
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: we understand what situation is, how we're communicating that, and
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: how we're moving forward.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: What have you said that you chair in these last
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks, good job.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: I thought, like I thought last week, he like I
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: thought the Pittsburgh game, it was like he that was
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: his first game back since the Rams last season, and
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: really his first real action in pads, and obviously you're
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: going to be a little tentative, and I think, like
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: you have to talk to him about that experience. But
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: like I was kind of excited by it because I saw, like,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: you still can pop out of his hips, he can
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: do certain things. And then I thought last week there
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: was a couple of third downs he really flashed.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: So I think just like last year, I thought, we
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: came back here.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I can't remember the coming Green Bay Arizona, And by
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: the time we got to the Vikings game, I felt
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: he was rolling, you know, so he's gonna get that.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Actually, the past rushing quarterbacks escapement is that an outside
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: in mentality or what's it? It's just one in your
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: rush lanes, understanding who covers who, where, the levels that
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: we play at, and and.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: It's like I would say, seventy percent of it is
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: what's on a piece of paper. There is thirty percent
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: of it is that they feel off each other, you know,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: because once the balls snapped and you're in the right places.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Is it's it's sometimes hard to locate a person in
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: her pocket, and some people have a great talent for that.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: You see, like they finish, that's where the production goes up.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: And it's just understanding how to me how you learn
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: to play off each other, and how you learn in
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: those moment what the guy normally does because people have
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: patterns of kind of movement and we just learn that.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: We watch a lot of film, clear edged.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Guys are playing and they just feel like a matter
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: of time before the sacks start coming.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think like there's little things, there's I think
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: there's some technical things that we can work on, but
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: I do think.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: It is a matter of time.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I thought, Boy, there was one where I thought he
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: had a sack on Sunday on and it just flipped
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: it out to Kamara. I think, you haven't got You
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: gotta keep doing it and as you gotta hone in
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: on a couple of things, but you can't chase that
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: production that these guys are creating pressure, they're having quick wins,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: especially Boy, and that's what we preach.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: So we learned to cover him.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: We learned to be on on our lines, and I think.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: We'll end up where we need to be.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: He's just like his his lateral quickness, his foot speed.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Some people have some real time it's like l the law.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: He can like he can move from one half of
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: a player to another half of a player faster than
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of people.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: He has like a lot more flexibility.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: There's like certain traits that other guys you see, like
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: the whole were very powerful out of his hips. It's
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: like different guys have different things, and that's one of
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: the boy's things.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Thanks very much, guys,
