  Speaker 1: Good, awesome, Ryan, Just what's so hard about dealing with
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: dealing with two of Yeah, he's got a lot of weapons,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: really good team, fast, team, shift, trade in motion all
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: over the place. He does a really good job distributing
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: the ball. Look, we all know about Tyreek Waddall, but
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: the rest of the group they do a really good job.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: If you take those guys away, he'll get the ball
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: to the other guy. So you can't just focus on
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: one or two. They got a full offense that we've
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: got to prepare for, and he gets the ball of it.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: He knows where to go with the ball like it.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: It's the guy gets out of ball lightning quick out
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: of his hands. And so we got to do a
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: really good job in our coverage and disrupting him in
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: the pocket. Things like that, you know, things you got
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: to do every week. But really good football players. He's
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: playing at a really high level. Like watching a lot
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: of his games from last year and how quickly he
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: gets rid of the ball and how well they do
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: job of seeing your covers. He knows where to go
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: with the football is very impressive. What does the defensive
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: line have to do because he gets the ball out
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: of his hands so as what's what changes for the
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: defensive line. Yeah, hands up, you know, get your hands up.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: You know, limit interior throwing lanes things like that. We
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: can be high rushing up the field, you know, open
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: up areas where he can see better. But yeah, interior
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: types of hands up bats, tips and balls, things like that.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: You're gonna have a lot of games this year where
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: you're gonna face a pretty good, really good combo receivers
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: on the other side. Do you like the idea of
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: doing this in week one, that you have this kind
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: of challenge right out of the game. Yeah, you know,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: we treat every game is each game is one unit,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: and so they each each game is going to present
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: a different challenge. And it's really good that this team
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: is you know, just how the schedule falls, and you know,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: we don't pick it, and so we got to go
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: out there and we got to play. But fired up
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: about you know, playing this group really good, have a
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: lot of success. You know, Mike's done a great job
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: with their team, and the offense down there has been
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: really good in terms of running and passing, like they're
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: they're well balanced. You know, obviously one of the high
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: power offense of the league, you know, number one passing offense,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: things like that, and so it'll be a really good test.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: You know, our guy's gonna be ready. You know, we're
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: just one day at a time and go out there
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and play third down today. The one thing that he's
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: noticed the most about the way you guys cover is
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: how the communication goes in the pre sap portion of
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: of the down. Could you just talk a little bit
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: about that? How important could you talk about it supports
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: this particular week since the Dolphins do do a lot
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: of that. Sure, you know we talked about a line
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: in the just win the pre snap, you know, where
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: they break the huddle. We make our calls and our
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: coverage calls, and our guys got to get lined up
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: quick because there is so much shift trade motion, getting
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: the stance, get your eyes in the right spot, and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: then be prepared for the adjustment. College football, NFL it's
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: all the same and high school line up and then
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: somebody's gonna move today and in any level, I mean
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: it's it's you know, somebody's moving. The receiver's moving, tight end,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: trade back's moving, and so we got to be ahead
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: of those shift trade motions, you know, for our guys
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: to go out there and be ahead of the coverage call.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Hey we're going to go from this to this, or
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: we got to slide the line or something like that.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: So we're on us, We're on our guys about you know,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: every single call and then and then what's gonna happen
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Like just don't sit there and be like, hey, they're
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: going to snap the ball. You know, we're going to
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: get a shift trade motion every snap. And so that's
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: what we've been practicing. We've been practicing at OTAs. You know,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: it's just how the game is today. What's the origin
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: of attacks that that's the model for this year. You
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: have to attack everything. I think it's our model every
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: every day. Every attack everything everything we do, you know,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the weight room, the meeting rooms, the practice field, rehab.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: You know, we attack. It's the mindset of being ready
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: for everything. You know, and look, we're gonna go out there.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: We're gonna treat like today's like Sunday. You know, we
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: got we attack today, treat it like a game so
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: that when Sunday happens, we're prepared and you know, they're
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: going to do some things that we didn't prepare for.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: It's game one. You know, everybody does that, you know.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: But as long as we're aligning, adjust, we get our
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: eyes in the right spot, we win the pre snap,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: and then we go out there and we attack the play.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: We should be pretty good. What's your message to the
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: young guys who maybe making an official NFL they view
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: this week just in terms of how to get their
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: emotions and check what to expect all that. It's football.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: It's football, you know about by the fifth play, all
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: those emotions and everything kind of go away and you know,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: you get into the flow of the game. So don't
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: burn too much in the pregame, you know, thinking about
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: it too much. Flight down there, just go do your job,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: like that's a really important thing. Play fundamentals and technique,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: you know, you know the scheme and everything where you're
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: supposed to be. Play fundamentals and technique. Do your job,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: you know, and just focus on winning your one on
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: one matchup. It's a team that runs so much outside
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: and wide zone, getting those speedy backs out in space.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: What do you expect from the interior defensive lignement on
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: those types of plays. You know, they do a good
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: job in their perimeter runs. But then when you really
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: start breaking them down. They do have some interior runs
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: that you can't fall asleep on as everybody start running
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: to the sideline. So again you just got to go
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: out there. We got to play the man in front
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: of us. We got to play the angle departure in
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: our block, own our gap. And then the big thing is,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: and this is every week, get off the block and
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: get to the football, you know, populate the ball, run
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: inside out, and eliminate the cutbacks and the big yardists.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Their backs are really they do a great job getting
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: on the edge. One cut boom and they hit it
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: right down the field. And so we got to get
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: off the blocks on the backside and get to the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: ball to eliminate those cutbacks. Thanks guys, appreciate it.
