  Speaker 1: How do you look at them? I think any any
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: time you go live and you go live in practice,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be that type of practice. You're gonna get
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: out there, guy's gonna compete, and they're doing a great
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: job of just getting out there, working hard and making
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: each other better. But the physicality, Uh, that's what you
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: expect offense, giving us a good looking We're trying to
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: do the same thing for them. What are you seeing
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: for Mindrancisco? And I mean when you see this physicality yesterday,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: a guy that I mean he kind of made his
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: bread in college getting his hands on the football. Does
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: that kind of give you a little bit more flexibility
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: of a safety that can play be playing the box
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: and move all over the field. Oh it really does.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Uh you look at the game we had to run
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: it popped out and he was able to get a
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: guy down nice tackle. So you just see that over
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: and over. But the main thing from him is, like
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: you talked about him, being able to impact the game
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: by his range. In the second day, he can cover sideline,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: the sideline and he's a big plus fourth back there
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: going back in there, where did you see obviously you
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: got the sack, um, where do you like? Really you
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: just like to get off the early on in the game.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: He really first played the game, he got off us
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: this power. You saw the power hit the quarterback. Now
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: we stressed away from the quarterback's head. But you know
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the call, there's a call. We'll live with that. But
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: we just want to see him continue to get better,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: continue to work his moves, build his toolbox, and we're
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: happy so far. Obviously, no Devin Lloyd, no a little
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Cohn on Thursday. What did you see from the linebackers
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: that did play? And also do you have an update
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: as for a term in terms of timetable for Devon?
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Really no update yet. Uh, he's working. You see him
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: out here moving around. We'll let that situation take her itself.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: But as far as the linebackers, you know you're going
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: into a game unscouted team a different look. There are
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: a bunch of positives and a lot of things we
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: can and from and work on. So that group that
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: just continue to build, continue to work in. We're happy
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: so far. Screens have kind of been the Achilli's heel
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: of this franchise for the last few years. Obviously, you
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: know the Raiders had success with it on Thursday. How
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: do you counter and how do you get over that?
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: You just talk talk about it situationally, understand when they happen,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: when they occur, and then it's just ever getting to
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: the ball. Somebody has to make a play, whether it's
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: a defensive line or the guys in coverage, buying time
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: for the defensive line to retrace. But that's a focus
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: that will work on and when get better at it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: What kind of chance is Tyson Campbell having for you?
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: If you look at it, you see, uh not a
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: lot of balls caught his way. Um, he's doing a
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: real good job as far as staying on top of
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: receivers and really uh locking guys down. So he's been
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: We've been pleased with him. You saw in the game
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: he uh came up set the edge a couple of times,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: So so far he's doing good. How big is the
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: getting back on my pard? And you know, yes, it
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: seemed like yeah, if you plays are he was able
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: it's good to get him back so he can start
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the show and put his imprint on the defense. Uh,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: he's been out a while with the injury, so now
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: he's working his way back in. It's just good to
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: get him back out there and let him continue to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: work on the new techniques he you're learning, and just
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: continue to get better after free agency in the draft.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: On the depth of the past rush and is your
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: view of that different now that you've seen it in
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: live and dractics. Really, some of the additions we had,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: you understand what they've done in the past, understand the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: way they can affect the quarterback. So we were pleased
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: to get a couple of guys and just as we
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: go forward, we're just gonna continue to build that group. Um,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: we have a bunch of guys that can get after
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the quarterback, so focus on stopping the run then been
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: able to turn on loose. You just talk a little
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: bit about both Smooth and Chase on terms of where
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: they are right now. Really, both of those guys are
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: again pieces that you can use in the pass us game.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: And it's like everyone else are getting better day by
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: day learning what we're working learning, working with other guys
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: along that line, different matchups, different uh groups working together.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: So it's it's still a work in progress, but we're
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: continue to get the reps and getting better. Williams to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: be full back a team Gerals way to go for
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: you guys. That's really that timetable is really still up
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: in there where he's progressing good. You see him out
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: here moving around, had the pads on. It's just him
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: getting back and when the medical staff says he's ready
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: to go, he'll be ready to go. Serious is and
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: out there. What do you see from Trey Hearden and
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: what he's been able to do at that position? You see,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: uh he's played prosing before, he's had success at it,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and you see him in coverage, you see that he
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: understands his leverage, understand his technique. And then yesterday you
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: saw on the sideline you know, pretty good tackle. So um,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: you know, happy with that. What do you see from
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Chattamo and Jakill quarterman in the starting lineup on Thursday?
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Just some young guys out there find around. You know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: it's tough when you're playing special teams, you're working your
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: way into shape. I thought those two guys did a
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: good job of handling, the defense, making the plays that
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: UH presented themselves to them and then just as the
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: overall group just getting better, did you think the physically
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: was a little laughing on some of those Josh Jacobs
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: runs where they were big holes. It was a couple
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: of times where we were we misfit runs. And again
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: it's uh a learning situation. We'll get back at it.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Understand the film. Unscouted team will understand the runs that
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: will they will try to hit us with and be
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: prepared for right now. And what does he needs to
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: show you? He's a he's another another young guy that's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: making plays. He's doing a good job on special teams,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: he's playing well for us. He's just a guy that
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: the more reps of the young guy, the better you get.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: And he's cant need to get those reps all right,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: thank you,
