Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: That's going good.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Second training camp obviously they usually different positions.
- 0:08Speaker 1: How do you feel like it's going it's kind of
- 0:09Speaker 1: complete a different spots. Yeah, I mean I'll play wherever
- 0:14Speaker 1: they put me, so you know, it's it's more uh
- 0:19Speaker 1: mentally knowing everything. But if you, you know, learn the
- 0:21Speaker 1: playbook from a holistic standpoint, it makes it a lot easier.
- 0:27Speaker 1: What do you think suits you got this system this year?
- 0:29Speaker 1: So what do you think suits you about this system
- 0:32Speaker 1: they went to this year? I mean it's, uh, it's
- 0:36Speaker 1: an outside zoned scheme, so it's uh, it's a fast scheme.
- 0:39Speaker 1: It's it's more about winning targets than it is necessarily
- 0:43Speaker 1: uh going you know, straight vertical and trying to move people.
- 0:47Speaker 1: So I think I'm pretty athletic, so that that suits me.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Have you done that much before in your career?
- 0:54Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, I mean every offense has some sort of leverage.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Uh system, I'm part of it. I mean this has
- 1:01Speaker 1: more of it. So yeah, you ever.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Just kind of like what the preseason game where I
- 1:05Speaker 2: was kind of think, it's pretty crazy that.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You're playing next to college teammate in the NFL. Yeah,
- 1:11Speaker 1: it was pretty surreal going out running out of the tunnel,
- 1:14Speaker 1: my run right next to Gray. It was pretty surreal
- 1:17Speaker 1: playing another game with him. What have you thought about
- 1:19Speaker 1: him coming as a repeat dude, like he's doing so far?
- 1:23Speaker 1: I mean I knew what he was gonna do, so
- 1:25Speaker 1: it didn't surprise me.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a big Bison contingent on Thursday. Was
- 1:31Speaker 2: it bittersweet seeing cam Miller get us on that double move?
- 1:35Speaker 1: Uh? I mean we're we're Seahawks, So no, just you
- 1:43Speaker 1: talked about But I was happy for him. All I do,
- 1:45Speaker 1: I was. I was happy for him just for the record.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Let's see that the system. But when it's working, well,
- 1:50Speaker 2: what do you like about it? I mean end of
- 1:52Speaker 2: the outside.
- 1:52Speaker 1: So what he could do to the defense, it makes
- 1:58Speaker 1: the defense play true to It's hard to to do
- 2:03Speaker 1: anything schematically exotic and beat gaps sound, So it makes
- 2:09Speaker 1: it harder for the defense and it makes it easier
- 2:11Speaker 1: on us in that regard. And the system is very precise.
- 2:16Speaker 1: There's rules for everything against every defense that we possibly
- 2:19Speaker 1: could get. We all know what we should be doing. Yeah,
- 2:23Speaker 1: like great, he said, you know what you can do?
- 2:25Speaker 1: What is it about this game that you know?
- 2:26Speaker 2: He's on college and now hear that you do he
- 2:29Speaker 2: was got.
- 2:31Speaker 1: I just knew how hard of a worker he was,
- 2:33Speaker 1: how he was going to be gritty, and how he
- 2:34Speaker 1: was going to strain to win every play.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Let's see is out to you about John Benton and
- 2:39Speaker 2: his coaching staff.
- 2:40Speaker 1: And how they're coaching a Yeah. I mean, I think
- 2:42Speaker 1: the biggest thing I kind of hit on it was
- 2:44Speaker 1: just how precise the system is. Like I said, there's
- 2:47Speaker 1: a rule for for every situation possible. You should know
- 2:52Speaker 1: exactly what you're gonna get. If the whole playbook's in
- 2:55Speaker 1: like it is in camp and we get any type
- 2:57Speaker 1: of defense that they could throw at us, we have
- 3:00Speaker 1: a rule for everything. It's very precise. It wouldn't be
- 3:04Speaker 1: telling us for you to try to get you to
- 3:06Speaker 1: be masters of fewer things this season. How much do
- 3:09Speaker 1: you think that may help the whole line? Let's focus time. Yeah.
- 3:14Speaker 1: I mean, if you try and get better at five
- 3:16Speaker 1: things at one time, you won't get better at anything.
- 3:18Speaker 1: So trying to just get better at one thing and
- 3:22Speaker 1: then mastering that and then moving on to the next
- 3:24Speaker 1: is really how you get better at anything that right now?
- 3:28Speaker 1: So what where do you think the line isn't doing that?
- 3:33Speaker 1: I mean I think the biggest thing right now is
- 3:36Speaker 1: us just winning leverage in this outside zone scheme. That's
- 3:38Speaker 1: like the most basic part of this offense is trying
- 3:43Speaker 1: to win our targets. So that's probably the number one
- 3:46Speaker 1: thing right now. Room, who's the leader and take us
- 3:50Speaker 1: through that? And is it a joker in there or
- 3:53Speaker 1: what's that's like? Yeah, I mean it's a it's a
- 3:55Speaker 1: younger a line group, but Charles and uh and Olu
- 4:00Speaker 1: and I think everybody kind of it's it's a it's
- 4:04Speaker 1: a team effort and trying to lead each other. And yeah,
- 4:08Speaker 1: I mean it's an online room, so there's always a
- 4:10Speaker 1: lot of humor in it.
- 4:11Speaker 2: You're talking about blinding flavors. I mean, maybe it's a
- 4:14Speaker 2: really honest but the key is just kind of the
- 4:15Speaker 2: quick first step in getting a position.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Really fast that yeah, I would say that's the first
- 4:20Speaker 1: thing that you gotta do is have a first quick step. Yeah.
- 4:23Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean it's there just kind of a
- 4:26Speaker 2: position physical part of being able to do that, right,
- 4:29Speaker 2: it's kind of a part of that after you at it.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's a key part of it played all
- 4:37Speaker 1: over the line. What about center and takular you think
- 4:39Speaker 1: SHOOSI hockme. You block a lot of second level guys
- 4:45Speaker 1: at center. It's it's it's close quarters. It's a lot
- 4:52Speaker 1: of quick movements, it's a lot of close combat stuff
- 4:58Speaker 1: which I feel like I'm gonna guy mouse and made
- 5:03Speaker 1: men governments.
