• 0:01
  Speaker 1: How are we doing, Julian? What was that game like
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: for you guys? Dealing with the first half in the
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: way that they just kept coming at you and being
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: unable to get off the field.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it wasn't ideal, that's for sure. I
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: think came down executed. You know. I don't think on
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: any phase we played good enough today to win. Obviously
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: we had a shot kind of there at the end,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: but you can't win in the sleep you don't play well.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: How do you think they were able to have run
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: the ball so effectively in this game? I'm not sure
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: that's something we have to seriously addressed. Obviously, it's been
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: shown on tape a few times. We gotta get our
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: fits clean and just guys got to blow up, and
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: so short week, we gotta go in there and address
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: kind of some issues we've been facing. You got, you know,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: three days between now and your next game. What do
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: you guys have to do to get things right that quickly?
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I think, just commit. I mean it's a few days.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: You know, we gotta spend extra time, you know, whether
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: you're getting their early thing late as a group, just
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: to correct it and just honestly be accountable every one
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: of us has to look inward and figure out kind
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: of what they could do better, just across the defense.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: I'm sure offense special teams as well. It just takes
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: commitment right now. It's a short week, short week for
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: them too, and so we had to go in and
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: just you know, I really attacked the week. Just see
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: from me and Maia coming in wait for Red. Yeah,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I think he came in and you know, that's tough
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: and you're coming in Yeah, probably not warm. You came
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: in and he played some good ball. I thought it's
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: great experience for him. You know, I'm a fan of
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: his game. Uh and just you know, seeing a rookie
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: kind of get out there in that situation is tough,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: but he handled it well. I thought they were able
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: to confer fifty percent of their third downs kind of
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: their last drive.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: What were you seeing for that stable? That's been an
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: area you guys have been pretty strong this year.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think we had to be stick aware.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: A lot of those routes or concepts were at the
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: sticks and just leaky yards. I think we have to
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: clean up our tackling. I think we were just allowing
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: too much free access things. And then when are man,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: we gotta play man better and just be aware of
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: situational football and zone and that's all of us. Now.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: I'll you know, I'll take credit for the back end
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: or accountability for the back end. We have to just
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: play better. That's pretty simple in terms of our secondary.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: What if anything concerns you about these last two games story,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say anything concerns me. I think I know
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: we have the guys in the room that can go
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: and and tack it. And I'll try to leave that
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: charge and just hey, is the NFL. You're gonna win games,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: You're gonna lose games. It's a marathon. We gotta keep
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: you know, clicking. You know, this is the first time
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: as a as a staff, as a team, as a
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: unit in that building, we're seeing adversity. And so now
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: we've got to feel each other out and just grow together.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: I think, you know, in the NFL it's been said
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: kind of this week, but you gotta know how to struggle. Well,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: you can struggle and just shut down, or you can
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: face adversity and solve some things. And everyone just have
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: that approach, that growth mindset, and so we have to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: have that this week for sure, are you struggling well
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: or you're about to find We're about to find that out.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: We're about to find that out, and I'm gonna do
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: everything to get the back end right and get the
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: defense right, because yeah, we have to just go straight
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: through it, balance this game and obviously out in a
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: couple of days.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Have you balanced some funny? It's quick.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, we got to get in there and address
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: some areas that we need to address, but then we
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: have to tomorrow turn around to San fran for Thursday.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: It's a quick week. It's quick week for them too.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: But it just takes guys getting out of their feelings
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: about this game, get kind of that, you know that
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: that this game out of their head, and just move forward.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: We have to really attack this week, so we come
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: in here and protect our house.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Julian know that you guys are a month end of
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the year and your tape is out there a little
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: bit more. Now. Are you seeing teams start to do
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: different things against you, try to attack you differently or
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: is it not.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: So much time? Yeah, you know, it's a copycat league.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Some things, especially in the run game, you'll see teams
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: start to try to execute and so we have to
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: share that up. We got to close that Pandora's box
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: and just execute. I mean, you saw some leaky stuff
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: and a few of the games where teams were able
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: to run on us, and so we have to show
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: that up first. Foremost secondary, you know, has to tackle
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: a little better and we have to just work down
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: allows you and it to stop that. And then just
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: in the past game, just you know, we could get
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: to our man situations, to our good stuff. Just execute that.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: But we have to be better on first, second down.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I know our third numbers weren't great today, but those
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: get back on track situations. We just have to be
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: better on anything else.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Better guy,
