Press Pass | Liam Coen Recaps Loss to Seahawks · Press Pass

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Liam Yune wanting to start with the unbelievable pressure
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: on Trevor. I think he got pressure twenty times on
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: an unbelievable number of drop backs and I think seven sacks.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just combination of whether it's one on one protection,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: some stunts. We knew that they were pretty good in
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: some of their stunt game and twists and pressures. I
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: think early on he made a protection adjustment where he
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: got sacked, and you know, it kind of confused the
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: running back a little bit and didn't pick up the blitz.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: I think it's probably a combination of probably some good
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: players on their side and beating us. Maybe at some
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: points I got to watch the tape and then you
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: know whether we're being able to progress or not, you know,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: being able to get back to other throws. Maybe didn't
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: feel like he had enough time in some ways, so
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: got to move the pocket a little bit more, and
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: you know, we tried to throw some screens and then
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: their DNS or just renod of all the screens. The
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: only screens that were effective were the like action halfback screens,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: and when you're in a little bit of a drop
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: back game, you're trying to throw screens to balance the rush.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: They played those well, so credit to them. They beat
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: us up up front.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: Devin Lloyd on the sidelines saw him a little bit
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: in the second half, was holding his helmet.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Was that anything health related? Decision?
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Coaching staff wise? And then what did you see from
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Ben Trump?
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so Devin had a little bit something get a
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: little tight on him and played the first half, came
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: in in the second half, it tightened up on him,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: tried to loosen up. We tried to go in the
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: second half and just couldn't go, you know, just couldn't
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: do it. So I honestly have no idea truly how
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Ventrel played or not, you know, but we made that
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: decision to ultimately kind of protect them that way.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Lee and a couple of guys just in the locker
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: room quote, we killed ourselves today. Quote if you agree
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: with that. How frustrated is that that some of those
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: pre snap things keep popping up.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's on me. It's an undisciplined operation at the moment,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and it's on me, and it's got to get fixed.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: It's a great opportunity this week to get it fixed. Right,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: We're going on the road, We're flying to another country.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Being together as a group, look ourselves in the mirror
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: and try to figure out from an operation and habit standpoint,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: what is standing in our way, because right now it's us.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Do you have an initial thought on how you can.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: No, we we had a very honest conversation in there
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: about it. You know, that was the conversation we just had.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: I'm sure they were probably echoing that message. Yeah, we've
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: tried to go tempo to ultimately chill out with the
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: motions to just line up and get them in a
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: formation to just go play. You know, we had a
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: touchdown called back because of an alignment issue. We had
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: two on the tackle after positive plays. So it's not
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: even just the penalties, it's when they're happening as well
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: as the Achilles heel at the moment.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Liam, lack of pressure on Darnold or and I know
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Trayvon's obviously not in there, so that played a role.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: But what can you do maybe to kind of yeah,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: we got hit them up, but maybe a little you know,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: just look at it all right, do we need to
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: send a little bit more? You know, just didn't get
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: enough pressure at all. I thought they did a nice
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: job at times of being balanced right, like they were
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: able to run it effectively enough. It was kind of
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: a weird game. You look up at times and you're like, wait,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: how are we losing? You know, like from a first
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: down standpoint all that, and then I think they had
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: like fifty three yards rushing at one point in the
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: second half or whatever it was, and so it just
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: felt weird. They hit enough explosives and we didn't. Like
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: that's the reality is, we didn't get after their quarterback.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: They got after ours. They hit a couple of big
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: plays in the past game and we did not. So
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I don't think either team probab. We ran it as
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: well as we've been you know, running the football. We
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: did come out with a mindset of us want to
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: throw the ball, but we've got to get after their
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: quarterback more as they got after ours.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Liam, How different is this loss compared to the Cincinnati
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: loss in your mind? And how much of a step
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: back do you think this team took after such an
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: emotional win on Monday night.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: You know, I think and any loss you're dealing with
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: some sort of quote unquote adversity. I think the Cincinnati
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: one was a game where you're leading the entire time
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: and they just win at the end, and so you're
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: you're taking that was frustrating because you felt like he
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: dominated the game. This was a different deal where we
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: come out, we don't really do much offensively early on,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: we score and miss an extra points, So it's like
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: those deflating moments. I think that's probably the theme of
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: today was positive, then something negative would occur and kind
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: of take the wind out of our sales. You know,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a very honest locker room in
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: there in terms of understanding guys that we will not
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: beat good quality teams like this. Whether you're home on
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the road in London on the West Coast doesn't matter.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: If we continue to hurt ourselves and have these self
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: inflicted wounds, that ultimately is on me.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Concern level with your kicker.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: No, I mean, look, you know, I think the one
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: on the extra point, I don't know exactly what quite
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: what happened on that the you know, the field goal,
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: we didn't help them. We took a sack on the
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: prior play that knocked it back about eight or nine
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: I think eight or nine yards. Look, he knows he's
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: got to make kicks and and he's as hard on
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: himself as anybody. I still have a lot of lot
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: of trust and confidence in Cam. I think we just
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: got to go make these kicks in real, live games.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: How much of this is a reality check of not
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: getting the takeaways that you've been getting. And do you
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: think at all that this team spent the week reveling
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: in a big money night win.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think that was the case. I mean,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I could be I could be wrong.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I think when when you walked into our building after
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: the Kansas City game, it wasn't like everybody was walking
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: around like we were God's gift the ball. You know,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: it was a pretty frustrating actually week in some ways
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: in terms of like you're so happy, obviously you won,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: but it was those that process over the results that
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: ultimately bit us in the butt today, right like that,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: not getting those turnovers and excess and then you know
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: have not with the lack of explosives on offense in
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: a lot of ways and giving up a few explosives
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: on defense, with the amount of penalties we had, You're
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: not gonna win that game very often. And we had
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: a chance to win, right You're down by one score
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: at halftime, you score missed, you missed the kick, and
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: just not gonna win.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: The two explosives, you know, giving up by a defense.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Just would you see on those that it feel like
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: they just called the right things at the right time. Mission.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: I got to give those guys credit on their side
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: of the ball as well. I think, you know, Kobe
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: accent a nice job balanced and being balanced and mixing it.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: They caught us in quarters and had a quarters beater.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: They had their fast guy run right down on a
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: post and play action where your safeties or are trying
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to fit the run, and caught us in outside leverage
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: quarters and then another one on the over. They caught
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: us in three deep, so he definitely got us in
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: a few priority calls and the priority looks gotta go
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: watch the tape and see if there was anything we
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: could have done better from a one on one or
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: fundamentally technique leverage. But ultimately they had some timely play calls.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Thanks guys,
