Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Keeping six or seven wide receivers in a roster in
- 0:02Speaker 1: the given year, and then how you assess houseecus is
- 0:06Speaker 1: played so far? Yeah, I mean the roster's always kind
- 0:10Speaker 1: of fluid, sometimes a week to week of how do
- 0:12Speaker 1: we build the best fifty three getting ourselves to a
- 0:15Speaker 1: game day active roster. You know, who are you risk
- 0:19Speaker 1: losing if you make available, if you put on waiver wires,
- 0:22Speaker 1: versus who could you potentially bring back? Things like that.
- 0:24Speaker 1: That all comes into play. But you know, ideally you've
- 0:27Speaker 1: got three guys that you know are going to contribute
- 0:30Speaker 1: most of the past game to a fourth guy that
- 0:33Speaker 1: can be versatile or have some sort of role, and
- 0:36Speaker 1: then depending fifth, sixth, A lot of that comes down
- 0:39Speaker 1: to special teams. I mean, ideal world, we're not throwing
- 0:42Speaker 1: the ball to the fifth receiver a lot of times
- 0:43Speaker 1: on game day when there's five guys out, it's the
- 0:45Speaker 1: top three guys you're kind of rolling through, plus tight ends,
- 0:48Speaker 1: running backs, whatever the matchups determine. And then that guy
- 0:51Speaker 1: has versatility to play multiple spots or thrive in a
- 0:55Speaker 1: certain role, but probably gets a game day jersey because
- 0:58Speaker 1: of special teams most likely. And then we have a
- 1:01Speaker 1: lot of guys, guys like seafists that you're asking about
- 1:04Speaker 1: that kind of fit, that mold of you know, how
- 1:06Speaker 1: do they fit, where do they fit in fourth, fifth, sixth,
- 1:09Speaker 1: what's their value as a receiver, what's their value on
- 1:12Speaker 1: special teams as well?
- 1:13Speaker 2: What do you want to do with Ingram this year?
- 1:17Speaker 1: Oh, there's a lot of things. I think Evan is
- 1:19Speaker 1: such a dynamic ball carrier that a lot of it
- 1:21Speaker 1: is get them the ball as quick as you can,
- 1:23Speaker 1: you know, running away from people. But I think an
- 1:25Speaker 1: element that he's always had is getting down the field
- 1:29Speaker 1: really and sometimes it's trying to find what the matchup
- 1:32Speaker 1: is you can get them on safety as you know
- 1:33Speaker 1: that there's certain looks. We don't get a lot of
- 1:35Speaker 1: matchups with them in against linebackers necessarily versus man we
- 1:39Speaker 1: get a lot of safety carry looks. We get a
- 1:41Speaker 1: lot of people that will play a nickel to twelve
- 1:43Speaker 1: personnel when he's in the game. So then it's is
- 1:46Speaker 1: it worth the tight end matchup against a nickel or
- 1:48Speaker 1: a safety when you could get a receiver in that matchup.
- 1:51Speaker 1: So there's kind of a give and take. You're always
- 1:53Speaker 1: if we give him this, we're taking that from some
- 1:55Speaker 1: somebody else, But there's a lot of those elements. Then
- 1:58Speaker 1: he's done a good job, particular when he's in the
- 2:01Speaker 1: core blocking second level. When we have a couple of
- 2:03Speaker 1: schemes where he gets on the second level quickly, he
- 2:06Speaker 1: does a pretty good job in that stuff. So that's
- 2:07Speaker 1: something we're just continuing to try to evolve. But getting
- 2:10Speaker 1: him the football quickly things things happened quickly and happened
- 2:14Speaker 1: pretty well for him. He's a good ballcarreer, he has
- 2:16Speaker 1: the skills to be able to make those plays he does.
- 2:18Speaker 1: And yeah, he's really good as a contested catch guy
- 2:20Speaker 1: kind of above the shoulders as well. That's something he's
- 2:23Speaker 1: done really well, kind of those half back shoulder half
- 2:26Speaker 1: contested catch type situations.
- 2:28Speaker 3: Pushing for more workdown field a little bit and talk.
- 2:31Speaker 1: To you about no, not necessarily, but I mean he'll
- 2:34Speaker 1: do anything we ask. So it's just something as we
- 2:36Speaker 1: go and look at our offense of attacking all sorts
- 2:39Speaker 1: of parts of the field, whether it be you know,
- 2:41Speaker 1: vertically or horizontally. He's a certainly guy that can give
- 2:45Speaker 1: us that rush.
- 2:46Speaker 2: Ryan's brought in you know, a few guys that he's
- 2:48Speaker 2: worked with before, either he's coached with them or they
- 2:51Speaker 2: played for him. How much does as a coordinator, how
- 2:55Speaker 2: much does familiarity with people you have on the stat
- 2:59Speaker 2: coming in sort of exacerbate the process of transferring that knowledge,
- 3:05Speaker 2: transferring the philosophy you want to the players and you know, ultimately,
- 3:10Speaker 2: you know, getting to the point where you're winning games.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's a big part of it. I
- 3:13Speaker 1: think you're comfortable with the people that you've been around,
- 3:15Speaker 1: you have shared experiences with. Now there's value in outside
- 3:19Speaker 1: voysess people you don't know. Ultimately, it's how you all
- 3:21Speaker 1: work together. So whether that's new people that your personality
- 3:25Speaker 1: is messur really well together, or people that you've been
- 3:26Speaker 1: through the fire with that you know howbody's gonna respond
- 3:29Speaker 1: and your personalities mesh that. That's ultimately that's how it's
- 3:32Speaker 1: gonna work. It's just it's people working together. But I
- 3:35Speaker 1: think there's certainly if you have shared experience with somebody,
- 3:38Speaker 1: that's gonna help kind of tighten that bond and be
- 3:40Speaker 1: able to lean on that bond at the right times.
- 3:42Speaker 2: You noticed that you took the offense as a group down.
- 3:45Speaker 3: I think you've phrased it down to the studs or
- 3:47Speaker 3: something like that a week or two ago when you
- 3:49Speaker 3: met with us.
- 3:50Speaker 1: How has that process gone?
- 3:51Speaker 4: And you please with the growth and can you describe
- 3:54Speaker 4: the growth.
- 3:54Speaker 1: That Yeah, yeah, I mean there's really more so than
- 3:58Speaker 1: anything is our run game of just the terminology, the structure,
- 4:01Speaker 1: the progression of the way we teach it, because that's
- 4:05Speaker 1: something we haven't been as good as we want to be,
- 4:07Speaker 1: and so moving forward, we kind of paired it down
- 4:09Speaker 1: what's really important to us? What do we want to
- 4:11Speaker 1: be really good at? What have we been good at?
- 4:14Speaker 1: How do we build this thing? Rebuild this thing from scratch?
- 4:16Speaker 1: And that's really where our main focus was. I think
- 4:19Speaker 1: guys are seeing that. I think the progression, the way
- 4:21Speaker 1: we've taught it so far through the off season is
- 4:23Speaker 1: really stuck with guys. There's probably a clear understanding, there's
- 4:27Speaker 1: probably more of things fitting in certain families to where
- 4:30Speaker 1: the rules the techniques are carrying over from play to play.
- 4:35Speaker 1: But again, you honestly have no idea if you can
- 4:38Speaker 1: run the ball until the game start. I mean, preseason
- 4:41Speaker 1: only gives you so much. Obviously, off season doesn't give
- 4:43Speaker 1: you a whole lot. It gives you targeting and landmarks
- 4:45Speaker 1: and footwork and technique, but there's no physicality. We talked
- 4:48Speaker 1: about that last time. Even into training camp, there's only
- 4:51Speaker 1: so much you can do. You'll get a handful of
- 4:53Speaker 1: days that are full speed, but it's just really not
- 4:56Speaker 1: a ton. And then kind of got to get a
- 4:59Speaker 1: hope that your training has taken you to the point
- 5:01Speaker 1: where now when the bullets are flying, we know what
- 5:03Speaker 1: we're doing, we know how to respond.
- 5:06Speaker 4: Have you noticed the difference in Parker Washington.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Yeah, Parker's Parker's definitely playing more confidently. I think he's
- 5:11Speaker 1: a lot healthier than he was this time last year
- 5:13Speaker 1: when we got him. But just things slow down. As
- 5:17Speaker 1: guys they're they're not worried every time they break the
- 5:20Speaker 1: huddle about what I'm doing. Where a my stance has
- 5:23Speaker 1: this route change? If they play this now it's he's
- 5:25Speaker 1: heard it one hundred times. So we give a play call,
- 5:28Speaker 1: we give a route, we move him around. He knows
- 5:30Speaker 1: the expectations of that particular player in that particular concept,
- 5:34Speaker 1: and so now you just see the skill sets start
- 5:35Speaker 1: to come out. So that confidence is a big thing,
- 5:38Speaker 1: and it's it's you know, he'll continue to grow. He
- 5:40Speaker 1: was putting the fire last year was moved around a
- 5:42Speaker 1: couple of spots, made some plays. I think that certainly
- 5:45Speaker 1: contributes to some confidence from the playmaking himself. But he's
- 5:49Speaker 1: continuing to grow.
- 5:50Speaker 4: Kind of combining a couple of things.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Dave and Brian have both said that there they value
- 5:57Speaker 3: blocking like they understand O'Brien said that at LSU, if
- 6:00Speaker 3: you didn't block, you couldn't get on the field. How
- 6:03Speaker 3: has that maybe shifted your view of those six wide receivers,
- 6:07Speaker 3: that six or seven wide receivers you would.
- 6:09Speaker 1: Keep on the roster.
- 6:10Speaker 3: Additionally, having those two players as you take this thing
- 6:13Speaker 3: down to the studs, how does their skill set maybe force.
- 6:17Speaker 4: You to completely alter.
- 6:18Speaker 3: What you did for a year ago.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Yeah, I think. I mean, obviously we want to be
- 6:22Speaker 1: We feel like kind of the interior, the core unit
- 6:25Speaker 1: is going to help us efficiently run the football. But
- 6:28Speaker 1: efficiency turns into explosion. Explosion when the receivers are blocking
- 6:32Speaker 1: and you get those four yard runs turn into fourteen
- 6:34Speaker 1: yard runs. Because we got hats on the safety, we're
- 6:36Speaker 1: carrying corners out whatever that may be, and we're not
- 6:40Speaker 1: going to ask those guys to go block middle linebackers.
- 6:42Speaker 1: I mean, that's not part of there's going to be
- 6:43Speaker 1: a time and a place where you're blocking a d
- 6:44Speaker 1: M or you're blocking align, but maybe a front side
- 6:47Speaker 1: pin pull, maybe backside cutoff. It may be getting to
- 6:50Speaker 1: the second level on a toss crack series. But for
- 6:52Speaker 1: the most part, we're blocking for safeties, we're blocking cloud corners.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Things we think those guys can do now certainly, and
- 7:01Speaker 1: their size helps. They're both big, strong, physical guys. For
- 7:04Speaker 1: the most part. Gabe's done it in the NFL, which
- 7:06Speaker 1: is a big deal. Brian will get him worked in
- 7:09Speaker 1: on certain concepts, but everybody has to block. We ask
- 7:11Speaker 1: Christian to block. Christian block's point of attack. Christian blocks
- 7:14Speaker 1: the backside of things. Sometimes it's the changing pictures where
- 7:18Speaker 1: it gets hard. You have to block the force safety. Well,
- 7:21Speaker 1: the for safety could be front side, could be backside,
- 7:23Speaker 1: could be a somebody blitzing off the slot. And so
- 7:27Speaker 1: you trust those guys that know how to do that
- 7:29Speaker 1: really well. So having more of them helps us. Now
- 7:32Speaker 1: we're less into this guy's on the front side, the
- 7:35Speaker 1: runs to them, this guy's on the backside, the runs away.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Like it just helps you eliminate tendencies as you go.
- 7:41Speaker 1: Having more guys that can do more things.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Your thoughts on Matt Jones this offseason.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Max done a great job just getting in here and
- 7:47Speaker 1: learning the offense. I mean, he's a sponge. He loves football,
- 7:50Speaker 1: he loves learning football, talking football. He's constantly in the building.
- 7:54Speaker 1: He's constantly asking questions. He's constantly talking, which is one
- 7:57Speaker 1: thing you just hey, shut up, I gotta give you
- 7:59Speaker 1: a play call real quick. He just runs his mouth
- 8:02Speaker 1: all the time, which is fun. It makes practice fun.
- 8:04Speaker 1: He's chirping with the dbs all the time. It's hard
- 8:08Speaker 1: right now, and we don't have helmets on, so there's
- 8:09Speaker 1: no headset communicator. I have to physically get him to
- 8:12Speaker 1: come talk to me to give him the next play call.
- 8:14Speaker 1: So I got to give him stop talking, give him
- 8:16Speaker 1: a play call. But he's done a great job just learning.
- 8:18Speaker 1: You see his experience. He's played a lot of football.
- 8:20Speaker 1: All the concepts we run he's run at some point
- 8:22Speaker 1: in time. So some of it's translating. And then you
- 8:25Speaker 1: try it as quickly as you can get away from
- 8:27Speaker 1: the old language you have of can't. You can't keep
- 8:30Speaker 1: telling yourself, oh, this is this, well, this is this,
- 8:33Speaker 1: and a certain point it's got to go away, and
- 8:35Speaker 1: it's got to be this is this and this is
- 8:37Speaker 1: how we communicate. This is our language. He's done that.
- 8:40Speaker 1: He's playing quicker each day that he gets every rep
- 8:43Speaker 1: he gets. So we're glad.
- 8:45Speaker 2: We We always like to talk about that change of
- 8:47Speaker 2: scenery for a player. Is that real?
- 8:50Speaker 1: I think so. I think there's certain times where you know,
- 8:53Speaker 1: it just gets tough and it's nice to have a
- 8:55Speaker 1: breath of fresh air. It's nice. It's fun to learn
- 8:57Speaker 1: a new system, it's fun to talk new language with
- 9:00Speaker 1: the group. And I think you're kind of seeing that
- 9:02Speaker 1: with him right now. What I think we've established a
- 9:07Speaker 1: tempo and that's something that not necessarily like no huddle,
- 9:11Speaker 1: but a tempo in and out of the huddle. Uh,
- 9:13Speaker 1: the way we want to meet. Just establishing our standard
- 9:16Speaker 1: for this is what it looks like. Though we'd love
- 9:18Speaker 1: to say we establish this physicality that we're going to be,
- 9:20Speaker 1: but that's just not real right now. So there's certain
- 9:24Speaker 1: things of the tempo, the way we communicate in and
- 9:26Speaker 1: out of the huddle, playing at the line of scrimmage.
- 9:28Speaker 1: There's a couple of different things that I feel confident
- 9:31Speaker 1: we've been able to do. And then, like we talked
- 9:33Speaker 1: about just our run progression of this is our starting point.
- 9:36Speaker 1: This is how we build on this. This is how
- 9:38Speaker 1: it all fits together to where there's more understanding. It's
- 9:41Speaker 1: not memorization, it's it's now we understand why this word
- 9:45Speaker 1: means this, what this, how this relates to that, and
- 9:48Speaker 1: our blocking schemes the same, our combinations are the same.
- 9:51Speaker 1: That A big part of that's Trevor, I mean a
- 9:53Speaker 1: big part of that's familiarity. I mean we have I
- 9:55Speaker 1: would say seventy five eight percent of the group has
- 9:58Speaker 1: been here before, so they kind of under stand why
- 10:01Speaker 1: things went away, why things change the way they were called,
- 10:04Speaker 1: why we do things we do. You know, it helps
- 10:07Speaker 1: when your teach tapes are now are guys and there's
- 10:10Speaker 1: no more Indie clips Philly clips there, it's us for
- 10:13Speaker 1: two years, whether it's training camp, off season, competitive practic,
- 10:17Speaker 1: joint practices, games, whatever that is. So I think that
- 10:20Speaker 1: certainly helps guys watching themselves on tape as well.
- 10:22Speaker 4: What do you look for from young offensive lineman this
- 10:25Speaker 4: time of the year, like Javon Foster, doctor Jones. How
- 10:28Speaker 4: do you kind of figure out where they're at this
- 10:30Speaker 4: time of year.
- 10:31Speaker 1: That's hard because a lot of it for them. There's
- 10:34Speaker 1: so much more learning for offensive lineman there was in college.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Just we have a number of different calls. We're trying
- 10:39Speaker 1: to build their toolbox. Is a big thing of you
- 10:42Speaker 1: face this sort of rusher. This is how you're going
- 10:44Speaker 1: to approach it this week, and it changes every single week.
- 10:46Speaker 1: So they're seeing a lot of that throughout the off season,
- 10:49Speaker 1: just based on whether you're playing Josh Allen, Deshaun Dixon,
- 10:53Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker like all these different types of rushers. You
- 10:56Speaker 1: start to see how that changes. So you see how
- 10:59Speaker 1: they handle it, how they adjust. But a lot of
- 11:02Speaker 1: it you're just trying to get them to learn what
- 11:04Speaker 1: they can do, what the tools are. They really one
- 11:07Speaker 1: of the big things that they haven't heard plays in
- 11:09Speaker 1: the huddle and they haven't really used cadence at the line.
- 11:11Speaker 1: I mean a lot of it was no huddle. You
- 11:13Speaker 1: got a signal, you heard the quarterback clap, let's roll.
- 11:15Speaker 1: We have to vary the cadence. We have a lot
- 11:17Speaker 1: more play calls. You hear it in the huddle. So
- 11:19Speaker 1: there's a whole process that you're just trying to get
- 11:22Speaker 1: them through really to now their skill set flourish. It's
- 11:25Speaker 1: a little bit going back to like Parker, Parker settled in,
- 11:27Speaker 1: he's more confident.
- 11:28Speaker 3: Now.
- 11:28Speaker 1: You want to get them through that as fast as
- 11:30Speaker 1: possible so you can see their skill set takeover.
- 11:33Speaker 4: What has Brian done right?
- 11:35Speaker 3: What is Brian done right to help his adjustment in
- 11:37Speaker 3: the NFL?
- 11:38Speaker 1: That means I think he's just really diligent. One of
- 11:41Speaker 1: the things. We're trying to get him to talk more,
- 11:43Speaker 1: just ask more questions. He's not a big talker, so
- 11:47Speaker 1: you're not always sure. You're searching for feedback. Are you
- 11:51Speaker 1: picking up what we're saying? Well, so far it's always
- 11:53Speaker 1: translated over the field pretty good. So okay, he's getting
- 11:56Speaker 1: it in some way, shape or form. We want more
- 11:57Speaker 1: out of them communication wise, so we know what he's thinking.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Does this make sense to you? How do you relate this?
- 12:04Speaker 1: For the most part, he just kind of nods and
- 12:05Speaker 1: looks at you and then goes out on the field.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Does it right. So that's encouraging. At least he's doing
- 12:09Speaker 1: it right and not wrong, and you're looking for that.
- 12:12Speaker 1: But he does a great job. However, he's getting it,
- 12:15Speaker 1: whether it's from the meeting room, extra studying at night,
- 12:18Speaker 1: carrying it over the field. He's done a good job
- 12:20Speaker 1: that so far, and we're just trying to expose him
- 12:22Speaker 1: to as much as possible so that you know, if
- 12:24Speaker 1: he misses a signal or misses an alert that was
- 12:26Speaker 1: something real subtle in a huddle, it doesn't happen twice.
- 12:30Speaker 1: And with him so far, he's not repeating any mistakes.
- 12:33Speaker 4: When will he start.
- 12:35Speaker 3: To communicate with you guys? I need at what point
- 12:37Speaker 3: do you kind of like, all right, man, we really
- 12:40Speaker 3: got to know what you're thinking.
- 12:40Speaker 1: At this point. Hopefully we just annoy him enough to
- 12:42Speaker 1: where he starts talking back to us. We're just trying
- 12:45Speaker 1: to encourage him to talk more and more. And I
- 12:47Speaker 1: think it's just getting comfortable in your surroundings. I mean,
- 12:49Speaker 1: he's living Baton Rouge forever. Now he's living Jacksonville. You're
- 12:53Speaker 1: standing in a hotel, you're finding your way into work,
- 12:55Speaker 1: you're finding out where the cap do you are. There's
- 12:57Speaker 1: so much new for these guys that you're trying to
- 13:00Speaker 1: just get them to settle in and then eventually we
- 13:02Speaker 1: hope that kind of takes over a little more of them.
- 13:04Speaker 4: What do you like as a coach?
- 13:05Speaker 2: How do you approach it when you see the schedule
- 13:07Speaker 2: actually come out, you know the order.
- 13:09Speaker 4: Like with Miami and Cleveland, non divisional teams, when do
- 13:12Speaker 4: you like to start working on them?
- 13:14Speaker 1: Do you wait or do you start as quick as possible.
- 13:17Speaker 1: I mean, I'll throughout the summer, I'll spend time just
- 13:21Speaker 1: kind of watching through and we were fortunate we played Cleveland,
- 13:24Speaker 1: we played Baltimore, which is kind of where we're going
- 13:27Speaker 1: off with Miami so far with Anthony Weaver over there.
- 13:31Speaker 1: But same idea, you go through, you watch your past,
- 13:34Speaker 1: you watch as much as you can throughout that. We'll
- 13:36Speaker 1: spend time really in training camp kind of when we
- 13:38Speaker 1: have those free moments of searching through certain things. There
- 13:41Speaker 1: may be days where we show, like you said, Cleveland,
- 13:44Speaker 1: we'll show Cleveland blitzes. We may not even tell our
- 13:46Speaker 1: guys as Cleveland blitzes, but as coaches, we'll put these
- 13:48Speaker 1: in kind of introduce it a little bit and start
- 13:51Speaker 1: working on that here and there. But as far as
- 13:53Speaker 1: the schedule goes, I mean, it's you kind of look
- 13:55Speaker 1: at those first four opponents. We'll start there and then
- 13:58Speaker 1: everything kind of flows from that.
- 13:59Speaker 3: I don't think talk to you till July. The proposed
- 14:03Speaker 3: new schedule for the off season that potentially could happen
- 14:06Speaker 3: where there would be no OTAs. You could just discuss
- 14:09Speaker 3: a from a coach's point of view. Do you like
- 14:11Speaker 3: the schedule the way it is now and then be
- 14:15Speaker 3: what that would mean for younger players to not have
- 14:17Speaker 3: the OTA perhaps but then have an earlier train.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Yeah, they're proposing that you come back mid July and
- 14:23Speaker 1: just start like two weeks on the front end. Yeah,
- 14:28Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean this is really all I know.
- 14:31Speaker 1: So I like it the way it is. I mean
- 14:32Speaker 1: I went through the COVID year obviously a no off
- 14:34Speaker 1: season one year. The next year was an ending, and
- 14:36Speaker 1: we had we had like a two week agreement with
- 14:38Speaker 1: our players. We just did two weeks, So that was
- 14:42Speaker 1: all different. I mean, there's good and bad with it. Really,
- 14:44Speaker 1: it's tell us what the rules are and we'll figure
- 14:46Speaker 1: out how we're gonna adjust to it. I don't know
- 14:48Speaker 1: if I'd necessarily have an opinion. It would probably change
- 14:51Speaker 1: our schedule from the get go. And so I mean,
- 14:54Speaker 1: as long as we have some summer break or something,
- 14:56Speaker 1: they'd be nice.
- 14:56Speaker 3: But do you think same Do you think it would
- 14:59Speaker 3: affect with younger players, like, for example, like the Josh
- 15:02Speaker 3: sepisis these undrafted free agent rookies be kind of unfair
- 15:05Speaker 3: to them, perhaps only have two preseason games, even if
- 15:07Speaker 3: it's an extended train.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Yeah, and same due like we're talking about, they're swimming
- 15:12Speaker 1: a lot of these young guys right now. They join
- 15:14Speaker 1: in the middle of phase two. They get one week
- 15:15Speaker 1: of Phase two with the Vets, and then they're kicked
- 15:17Speaker 1: into the deep end. We're playing it's otat spring ball.
- 15:19Speaker 1: We're practicing against each other, so you kind of get
- 15:22Speaker 1: those kinks out of the way early, and then they
- 15:25Speaker 1: come back for training camp. They know the speed we're
- 15:27Speaker 1: going through the install again where that process would be hard.
- 15:31Speaker 1: I mean they I would assume you'd pick them, get
- 15:33Speaker 1: them a playbook, whatever it is, but then they don't
- 15:36Speaker 1: come in for two months. Yeah, that would be tough
- 15:38Speaker 1: probably for young players. But I think that's they don't
- 15:41Speaker 1: really have a seat at the table in CBA. The
- 15:43Speaker 1: young guys don't. The old guys like the way it
- 15:45Speaker 1: is that they know it and so I don't know
- 15:47Speaker 1: how that plays out. Just tell me when I need
- 15:49Speaker 1: to be here and what we're doing. We'll figure it
- 15:50Speaker 1: out from there.
- 15:51Speaker 4: Spoke up the twenty twenty COVID season where you kind
- 15:55Speaker 4: of had an office and that was sort of like
- 15:56Speaker 4: that plan. Yeah, that's apparently reportedly where they got the
- 15:59Speaker 4: idea from. Yeah, do you have any lessons learned from
- 16:01Speaker 4: that off season that may you know, potentially if this
- 16:04Speaker 4: has made this a little bit easier of a transition
- 16:06Speaker 4: for those younger Yeah.
- 16:07Speaker 1: Honestly, I'd have to go back. I mean, that was
- 16:08Speaker 1: kind of just make it up as we go. Things
- 16:11Speaker 1: change daily, things change weekly, So we were always kind
- 16:14Speaker 1: of just flying by the seat of our pants there.
- 16:16Speaker 1: So I don't know if I I'd have to go
- 16:18Speaker 1: back and really look at what we did our calendar,
- 16:21Speaker 1: how what kind of use we got to. I think
- 16:22Speaker 1: it made everybody a lot more organized as coaches because
- 16:25Speaker 1: you're at home all the time, you have all you
- 16:27Speaker 1: have is video, and so we all got our cutups
- 16:29Speaker 1: in order and things like that, the teach tapes together.
- 16:33Speaker 1: But yeah, I really i'd really have to go back
- 16:34Speaker 1: and look at that.
- 16:38Speaker 4: Everybody lose from what do the quarterbacks do? Like I
- 16:41Speaker 4: do you want them to make sure they take like
- 16:42Speaker 4: a two or three week break whether there's no football
- 16:44Speaker 4: or not talking or thinking about it at all.
- 16:46Speaker 1: We kind of We more so just give them a
- 16:48Speaker 1: plan of like, here's what you need to improve on
- 16:51Speaker 1: throughout Here's what we'd like to see when you get
- 16:52Speaker 1: back for training camp. Now, how they go about that's
- 16:55Speaker 1: different for each guy. Some guys want to go off
- 16:56Speaker 1: and train with their quarterback coach. Some guys stick around here,
- 16:59Speaker 1: work out here. You'll talk here and there and play
- 17:02Speaker 1: golf with them, whatever it is. Some guys just go
- 17:04Speaker 1: off on vacation. But for the most part, here's what
- 17:06Speaker 1: we expect you to be ready for when training camp
- 17:08Speaker 1: hits
