Press Pass | Coen & Johnson Talk Managing Team Health, Executing Defensive Plan in Year 2 · Press Pass

0:01
Speaker 1: Uh, start, and you expect starters to play at all
0:07
Speaker 1: after the joint practice?
0:09
Speaker 2: Uh no, not in week one for sure. Guys at
0:14
Speaker 2: this time before we're little thing. Ah yeah, you just
0:17
Speaker 2: get thin. You know, you get thin you start.
0:20
Speaker 3: It gets putting more reps on on other guys that
0:24
Speaker 3: may not be truly prepared for the amount of reps
0:28
Speaker 3: that they then have to take, which, as you could
0:31
Speaker 3: see today, thins.
0:32
Speaker 2: Out a little bit of the groups.
0:35
Speaker 3: Your two's are more so mixed of like threes and fours,
0:40
Speaker 3: and you know, it just kind of gets a little
0:42
Speaker 3: bit thinned out. Unfortunately.
0:44
Speaker 2: How does that impact.
0:45
Speaker 4: Maybe what you'll do with the Saints.
0:47
Speaker 3: Well, hopefully it gets somebody back before that, you know,
0:52
Speaker 3: one of the guys, but I mean the ones we're
0:57
Speaker 3: planning on getting the majority of the work anyway in
1:00
Speaker 3: the joint, So hopefully we can survive with like the
1:04
Speaker 3: ones and twos getting the majority of the joint and
1:07
Speaker 3: then uh, you know the younger guys, give them a
1:10
Speaker 3: little bit of a break so that they can play
1:12
Speaker 3: in the game.
1:13
Speaker 4: What did you last yek you had that one joint
1:15
Speaker 4: with Miami, But would you what did you take away
1:17
Speaker 4: from that thing?
1:18
Speaker 2: Maybe why the change room for this year.
1:20
Speaker 3: You know, I just think that it's a it's a
1:22
Speaker 3: controlled environment that you can you're still getting physical work,
1:27
Speaker 3: but your your thuddings, you know, you're not tackling to
1:30
Speaker 3: the ground, not as many like blind shots and hits
1:34
Speaker 3: that guys maybe aren't gonna see. And then just in
1:39
Speaker 3: a game setting, obviously that that occurs right much more.
1:43
Speaker 3: And where we're at right now, especially from a health standpoint,
1:47
Speaker 3: we can't really afford to go into a game and
1:50
Speaker 3: just like let them roll and see what that would
1:52
Speaker 3: look like from an injury standpoint. And so I just
1:55
Speaker 3: think it's a more controlled setting. You practice against you know,
1:58
Speaker 3: pros that know how to practice, and you're with doing
2:01
Speaker 3: it with coaches that stressed the same things of taking
2:05
Speaker 3: care of one another and let's be pros about this.
2:08
Speaker 3: I think that that's when you can feel comfortable about
2:11
Speaker 3: going and doing that when.
2:12
Speaker 2: You're you know, thinned out like today.
2:14
Speaker 5: How does that kind of impact how you've assess you know,
2:16
Speaker 5: the practice, you know, whether it's from the rest of
2:17
Speaker 5: the offense or to look the defense.
2:19
Speaker 3: Again, Yeah, I thought the defense came out with more
2:21
Speaker 3: energy and better mindset and mentality. I thought the offense
2:26
Speaker 3: of skill players obviously, and some of the past game
2:31
Speaker 3: stuff was was good, but you know they kind of
2:34
Speaker 3: took the fight to us, to the offense in the
2:38
Speaker 3: run game today, Uh they were I.
2:40
Speaker 2: Thought they did.
2:40
Speaker 3: Albert Reis had a better day. You know, Armstead showed
2:45
Speaker 3: up again. You know, when those guys are coming off
2:47
Speaker 3: the rock and sending edges like they've been, whether it's
2:49
Speaker 3: on the perimeter inside, I wore the number one run
2:52
Speaker 3: defense in the NFL, So it's.
2:54
Speaker 2: Like, you know, it's not going to always be perfect.
2:57
Speaker 3: You're expecting the defense to do some good things, even
2:59
Speaker 3: though it pisses me off at times.
3:02
Speaker 2: This hasn't been a more physical camp in last year,
3:05
Speaker 2: right it's been pretty much. I'd say it's probably similar.
3:08
Speaker 3: You know, at this point, I think that you got
3:13
Speaker 3: a couple guys, I mean we got ankle you know,
3:16
Speaker 3: got like a couple, not a ton of like injuries
3:20
Speaker 3: that would maybe pop up from hitting. More so, like
3:24
Speaker 3: the general soft tissue hammy stuff, right and growings and
3:27
Speaker 3: things like that that are gonna you know, you guys
3:30
Speaker 3: see popping up all over the NFL right now. Then,
3:32
Speaker 3: you know, thankfully we haven't had a ton of like
3:35
Speaker 3: big big ones right, knock on wood, and it's just
3:38
Speaker 3: these are the times of the year.
3:41
Speaker 2: It happens.
3:41
Speaker 3: It occurs like we were supposed to do more today,
3:44
Speaker 3: and if I felt good about how they came out,
3:47
Speaker 3: I was gonna cut.
3:48
Speaker 2: We were supposed to do four.
3:49
Speaker 3: Minute today, you know, and like go hit bang another form,
3:53
Speaker 3: run run, run, run, run, And you know the way
3:56
Speaker 3: that those guys came out on defense, you know, at
4:00
Speaker 3: damn the head coach, I gotta be happy with something.
4:02
Speaker 2: What has surprised you most about your defense? For what
4:05
Speaker 2: you've seen in camps so far.
4:06
Speaker 3: I think the communication in the back end has been
4:11
Speaker 3: good where you have like you have a little new right,
4:13
Speaker 3: You've got Travis back in the fold, You've added Matta
4:17
Speaker 3: Arujo into the fold as a new coach, And I
4:19
Speaker 3: think the communication and what they're doing from a like
4:23
Speaker 3: in man coverage with some of the tools that we have,
4:27
Speaker 3: I think they're doing a really nice job of communicating
4:29
Speaker 3: with those tools and putting them in advantageous positions like
4:34
Speaker 3: not wanting to lock certain looks or wanting the top
4:36
Speaker 3: hat or do different coverage looks to different looks. That's
4:40
Speaker 3: been fun to watch and hear, and then it's always
4:43
Speaker 3: fun to see, like, all right, who's gonna be the
4:46
Speaker 3: next Danny.
4:47
Speaker 2: Strag Out bj Green?
4:49
Speaker 3: Right, Like, who are going to be those next guys
4:51
Speaker 3: who maybe we didn't slot to be contributors at the
4:55
Speaker 3: moment or in the future, and they end up doing
4:58
Speaker 3: things to surprise us and end up.
5:00
Speaker 2: Helping us.
5:02
Speaker 3: Position I can't say, I can't say I and I
5:05
Speaker 3: and it's not honestly, like, we had a personnel meeting
5:08
Speaker 3: the other day yesterday and it's just still so early
5:12
Speaker 3: like that, I think we'll have a better idea after
5:15
Speaker 3: this joint, after this game. That's usually when you try
5:19
Speaker 3: to have a little bit of that in terms of
5:21
Speaker 3: I think you guys have all seen maybe some of
5:23
Speaker 3: the younger guys in their own way stand out here.
5:26
Speaker 3: We all kind of know who those people are.
5:28
Speaker 2: But like when you.
5:28
Speaker 3: Actually have to go play tackle football and play in
5:31
Speaker 3: a game, like when we do one on ones and stuff, like,
5:34
Speaker 3: I'm just that's not football to me.
5:36
Speaker 2: It's a part of football.
5:37
Speaker 3: It's an aspect of it, but like we're not great
5:41
Speaker 3: in that as much, you know, so I want.
5:43
Speaker 2: To go see these guys play football.
5:45
Speaker 1: You also did some a couple of linebackers emphasis on
5:47
Speaker 1: that or just simply just a numbers to death.
5:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, straight down. Since you've been here, kind of chrissed,
5:53
Speaker 2: you've been with Antonia.
5:54
Speaker 3: Johnson's he's the guy, Like we talked about this in
5:57
Speaker 3: the personnel meeting. Est you're like, last year this time,
6:01
Speaker 3: where was Antonio Johnson in his development? Like where was
6:04
Speaker 3: he at on her depth chart? Where was he at
6:06
Speaker 3: in terms of contribution? And he was starting gunner and
6:11
Speaker 3: he was our fourth safety, right, So it's like, that's
6:17
Speaker 3: the kind of person that you're like, all right, who
6:19
Speaker 3: is that in this crop?
6:21
Speaker 2: Who is that?
6:22
Speaker 3: And at this stage last year Antonio was still right there.
6:26
Speaker 3: He was our starting gunner and it was our fourth safety.
6:29
Speaker 3: So it's like, who, I don't know, I don't know
6:30
Speaker 3: who that's gonna be. And so that's what's cool about this.
6:32
Speaker 3: That's what's fun about this is that you get to
6:35
Speaker 3: kind of keep grinding through it, seeing who's gonna keep
6:38
Speaker 3: getting through that wall if you will, of camp and
6:41
Speaker 3: that tough spot of it and come out on the
6:42
Speaker 3: other side and get better.
6:44
Speaker 4: During the preseason, how do you balance between experimenting with
6:48
Speaker 4: newer play concepts and also not showing too much of
6:50
Speaker 4: your head.
6:51
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, look, you want to be able to practice.
6:55
Speaker 2: The things ultimately that you want to do and major in.
6:58
Speaker 3: It's more so just hey, let's let's try to keep
7:01
Speaker 3: it to installs one through three for the most part,
7:04
Speaker 3: which is a good of a plenty of inventory to
7:07
Speaker 3: go play a game and not feel like it's just
7:10
Speaker 3: straight we're not giving our guys a chance to go win,
7:13
Speaker 3: because ultimately we want to win the game and.
7:15
Speaker 2: Go execute at a high level.
7:17
Speaker 3: But also, you know, you're not trying to show maybe
7:20
Speaker 3: some of the new things that you've been working on
7:22
Speaker 3: or things that you picked up in the spring after
7:25
Speaker 3: watching self scouting around the league and things that you're
7:29
Speaker 3: you know, implementing. So we'll keep it fairly basic. But
7:33
Speaker 3: you know, give these guys a chance when you've seen
7:36
Speaker 3: some Travis on defense, just the I mean the play
7:40
Speaker 3: they made the other day and the Trevor scramble and
7:44
Speaker 3: threw it in the middle of play was dead who sacked?
7:47
Speaker 3: And but Travis came out of nowhere and makes the
7:49
Speaker 3: play or like I can't coach it, and so I
7:53
Speaker 3: think the length the anticipation on defense we got them
7:57
Speaker 3: today on the one. But like you know, when you
7:59
Speaker 3: have length and anticipation and have a good feel for routes,
8:05
Speaker 3: I think that you know, the playmaking, getting your hands
8:08
Speaker 3: on balls, just denying the ball with good coverage, like
8:12
Speaker 3: that's a win in itself. That I think it goes
8:15
Speaker 3: a little bit unnoticed from corners is like, Yeah, when
8:19
Speaker 3: they don't get a lot of work, it's probably because
8:21
Speaker 3: they're doing their job and doing it at a high level.
8:24
Speaker 3: So I've been pleased with them fall into kind of
8:27
Speaker 3: that category that you're talking about.
8:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, I say, jabbar.
8:30
Speaker 3: You know, you go back to the spring, it's probably
8:32
Speaker 3: one of the most improved players on the team. You know,
8:35
Speaker 3: he's he's doing a heck of a job playing obviously
8:38
Speaker 3: corner a nickel. You know, I'm excited. I want to
8:41
Speaker 3: see him, you know, getting the game mix. I remember
8:44
Speaker 3: last year in the first preseason game, he showed up
8:47
Speaker 3: on a play just like running it down from the
8:49
Speaker 3: other side of the field, and you know, you're just
8:52
Speaker 3: excited to go see what that could look like and
8:55
Speaker 3: if he's truly taken that next step that we've seen. Ultimately,
8:59
Speaker 3: we do need to see it in a game like
9:01
Speaker 3: scenario on Saturday.
9:04
Speaker 2: What are your expectations from Yeah.
9:06
Speaker 3: He's definitely gonna play. He's gonna get a good amount
9:09
Speaker 3: of play, good amount of burn. And I really want
9:11
Speaker 3: to see Carter just go execute the offense at a
9:14
Speaker 3: high level, like eliminate any pre snaps, the delays or
9:19
Speaker 3: pre stat motion issues, Like don't overthink, you don't overanalyze it. Man,
9:24
Speaker 3: just go play one play at a time, execute the offense,
9:27
Speaker 3: and then.
9:28
Speaker 2: Let your play making skills take over.
9:29
Speaker 3: I mean, you guys saw it all season where you
9:32
Speaker 3: know on our scout team, he's out there running around,
9:34
Speaker 3: making plays, making throws, running around doing some good things.
9:38
Speaker 2: And so you ultimately want to just see him operate.
9:41
Speaker 3: But also man like, do what also makes you good
9:44
Speaker 3: and what you how you like to play. I don't
9:46
Speaker 3: want to take that away, but we can't have some
9:48
Speaker 3: of the pre snaps and things.
9:50
Speaker 2: Want it to be clean.
9:54
Speaker 1: Albert Regis, how is he slid in with that pretty
9:57
Speaker 1: experienced defensive line.
9:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought today was a better outing.
10:01
Speaker 3: I think maybe a lot previous few weren't, weren't up
10:03
Speaker 3: to his or our standard, and so look it's a
10:07
Speaker 3: work in progress. Any of these young guys, it's it's
10:10
Speaker 3: it's I think DL, especially IDL, is one of the
10:13
Speaker 3: most difficult positions in the NFL to play young, to
10:18
Speaker 3: play early. I think it's extremely difficult. You're you're twenty
10:22
Speaker 3: three years old playing against you know a lot of
10:25
Speaker 3: grown men and savvy, right O. Linemen are typically smart, savvy, tough, strong,
10:31
Speaker 3: right those things, and so you can get exposed a
10:33
Speaker 3: little bit in there, not just because of can't moved,
10:36
Speaker 3: but little details of technique and fundamentals that I think
10:40
Speaker 3: takes time. I mean, you look at d ham right like, he's.
10:45
Speaker 2: Howls D twenty nine.
10:48
Speaker 3: Right like, and he's what this point in his career,
10:52
Speaker 3: he's probably at one of the peaks in terms of
10:55
Speaker 3: the way he played, and so it's like that does
10:58
Speaker 3: take time, especially for I think D lineman in general,
11:02
Speaker 3: but especially IDL.
11:04
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I think with the grant taking over more
11:08
Speaker 6: of the play sheet, how does that open up your
11:10
Speaker 6: process or does that change anything for sparts?
11:13
Speaker 2: How you all anxiety?
11:14
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, it's just good opportunities. I was
11:20
Speaker 3: always provided that opportunity in LA with Sean, and you know,
11:26
Speaker 3: I know that it gave Sean a little bit more
11:28
Speaker 3: of an opt to go on the defensive side and
11:31
Speaker 3: hear a little bit more of what's going on over there,
11:34
Speaker 3: not because you're not in between drives as much thinking
11:37
Speaker 3: about the next drive and working through it. So you
11:40
Speaker 3: can really truly hear all of the communication on the
11:43
Speaker 3: defensive side of the ball, be able to be engaged
11:47
Speaker 3: and really involved a little bit more than I normally
11:50
Speaker 3: am in that setting, and you know, be able to
11:53
Speaker 3: provide a little bit of a different lens where maybe
11:56
Speaker 3: not every play I want to you know, somebody or something.
12:01
Speaker 3: You know, like, you know, you're not as concerned about
12:03
Speaker 3: the outcome. You really just want to see everybody the
12:06
Speaker 3: big picture compete and take a little bit of a
12:10
Speaker 3: back seat of Karen so much about the offense every play,
12:13
Speaker 3: not living and dying by it.
12:16
Speaker 6: Yeah, and with that opportunity, Yeah, having the limitations that
12:19
Speaker 6: you spoke of earlier. How much of a challenge is
12:21
Speaker 6: that for him? And a great thing to come on
12:23
Speaker 6: his resume.
12:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been there, man. It's hard.
12:26
Speaker 3: It is. It's challenging when you're thin and you have
12:29
Speaker 3: a limited inventory of plays.
12:31
Speaker 2: It's not easy.
12:32
Speaker 3: Everybody thinks it's like really easy to come up with
12:34
Speaker 3: your preseason call sheet, and it's actually a little challenging
12:37
Speaker 3: because you want to make sure that you do enough
12:40
Speaker 3: to what is going to maybe give the defense a problem.
12:43
Speaker 3: But also when you don't have a ton of guys
12:46
Speaker 3: that have maybe repped a lot, that you got to
12:48
Speaker 3: keep it simple. But it's great exposure for him to
12:51
Speaker 3: work through situational football, get his flow, a little bit
12:55
Speaker 3: of how he calls in and how he sees it
12:58
Speaker 3: and within the city. Still it's not like he's going
13:01
Speaker 3: to be, you know, putting in plays that we don't run.
13:03
Speaker 2: It's all our offense. Just he gets to call it.
13:06
Speaker 3: And it's just good exposure. Until you've done it and
13:10
Speaker 3: actually go and do it in those settings, you don't
13:14
Speaker 3: truly get a uh, what's the appreciation for it? Yes,
13:23
Speaker 3: this on this game, Yes, right now, I will. I'm
13:26
Speaker 3: looking at potentially not at one point in the preseason
13:30
Speaker 3: being the head knocker, you know, like potentially do some
13:36
Speaker 3: plans there, but yes, for this game against the Saints,
13:41
Speaker 3: I'll be throwing the challenge flag and being the head
13:44
Speaker 3: coach duties coach, Thank you, thank you.
13:48
Speaker 1: Hey Jay, that this time a year ago you were
13:50
Speaker 1: the starting gunner and fourth safety and that You're a
13:53
Speaker 1: great example of what can happen when this time of
13:56
Speaker 1: the year guys start to emerge from the pack. Can
13:58
Speaker 1: you just described the last three hundred sixty five days
14:00
Speaker 1: for you?
14:01
Speaker 5: Oh?
14:01
Speaker 2: Man, I feel like night and day.
14:03
Speaker 5: Honestly, like you said, starting off as a you know,
14:06
Speaker 5: court special team guy, and then just you know, gradually
14:08
Speaker 5: working my way up on the depth chart.
14:12
Speaker 3: Uh.
14:12
Speaker 5: I think I'm a good representation for the younger guys
14:14
Speaker 5: to you know that's coming in, you know, undrafted or
14:16
Speaker 5: late draftees, you know, to show you they j able
14:19
Speaker 5: to show them like you gotta work. You gotta do
14:23
Speaker 5: your time on supposed to team sometimes. Uh And it's okay,
14:26
Speaker 5: your time will come. And when your time come, just
14:28
Speaker 5: take advantage with a more significant role.
14:30
Speaker 4: What is your mindset now?
14:33
Speaker 5: Really just you know, sharping in my game, sharpening my skills,
14:36
Speaker 5: being a really on top of the details of the game,
14:40
Speaker 5: and you know, being the older guy in the room,
14:42
Speaker 5: being able to just help the younger guys, you know,
14:44
Speaker 5: navigate through this time in this process.
14:46
Speaker 4: Continuing off of point, what was it about the system
14:49
Speaker 4: around this time last year that made you have that
14:51
Speaker 4: click from a performance standpoint?
14:53
Speaker 6: Uh?
14:53
Speaker 5: I think coach Kim does a really great a really
14:56
Speaker 5: great job of teaching the scheme and then not only
14:59
Speaker 5: teaching the scheme, but demanding greatness out of us as
15:01
Speaker 5: a defense. And as you see each day we go
15:05
Speaker 5: out there, we work hard. He gonna coach as hard.
15:07
Speaker 5: But I feel like most appointing the players have really
15:10
Speaker 5: taken on the culture that he instilled into the defense,
15:14
Speaker 5: and we aggressive attacking team. And when you can't go
15:18
Speaker 5: full quarters with us like that, you know what I'm saying,
15:19
Speaker 5: So that's our whole model. Make a team go full quarters.
15:22
Speaker 1: You were coming out at A and M. There was so
15:23
Speaker 1: much talk of you played in the slot more than
15:25
Speaker 1: any other safety in college football, and now with the
15:27
Speaker 1: evolution of the safety position in the NFL where we
15:30
Speaker 1: are seeing safeties in the slot a little bit more so.
15:33
Speaker 1: But to your point, you waited your turn, So how
15:35
Speaker 1: would you evaluate where you maybe thought you would be
15:38
Speaker 1: when you first got to the NFL versus now where
15:41
Speaker 1: you are and the opportunity that's at hand.
15:43
Speaker 5: I feel like, coming out, I thought I'll play way
15:46
Speaker 5: more nickel because that's what I played in college. But
15:49
Speaker 5: I feel like me playing nickel gave me a little
15:52
Speaker 5: bit more versatility of you know, playing man goings on,
15:55
Speaker 5: like teams don't know what I'm doing. I could blitz
15:57
Speaker 5: all different types of things. So I feel like to
16:00
Speaker 5: add to my back. So if a team, if we
16:02
Speaker 5: can wanna go base, we can go cover. I feel
16:05
Speaker 5: like all our safeties really can cover and not just me.
16:09
Speaker 1: So I mean, no, how.
16:11
Speaker 2: Improved is this secondary compared to last year? You sire?
16:16
Speaker 2: How improved this is secondary? If we're from last year
16:19
Speaker 2: to this year?
16:20
Speaker 3: Uh?
16:20
Speaker 5: I feel like the most difference from last year this
16:24
Speaker 5: year is us really understanding the defense in the scheme
16:28
Speaker 5: so now we can make it our own. And like
16:30
Speaker 5: we manipulating the offense now because we're not just learning
16:33
Speaker 5: the defense word. We understand that we know what our
16:35
Speaker 5: issues are, so we dictating what we want the offense
16:38
Speaker 5: to do.
16:39
Speaker 1: How much we muscles did you put on this offseason?
16:42
Speaker 2: Do you know a number? No?
16:44
Speaker 1: Nah, I don't know if aye?
16:45
Speaker 2: Or now?
16:45
Speaker 1: What what are you at right now?
16:46
Speaker 3: Alright?
16:47
Speaker 2: Two ten, two twelve?
16:49
Speaker 4: Yea to where you were at this point one year ago?
16:53
Speaker 2: What would you have considered a successful year for you?
16:56
Speaker 4: At this point this year? Make it think you are
16:59
Speaker 4: all right?
17:00
Speaker 5: I feel like just a little found myself on the
17:03
Speaker 5: roster as a guy that you know, the team who
17:06
Speaker 5: could trust. If that's special teams or defense. I feel
17:09
Speaker 5: like that would be a successful whenever my opportunity come,
17:13
Speaker 5: take full advantage of it.
17:16
Speaker 3: And grug kinds of preparation.
17:18
Speaker 5: Last year I learned a lot. Yeah, I learned a
17:21
Speaker 5: lot for sure with the coaches in with you know,
17:24
Speaker 5: the older guys in the room. I give a lot
17:26
Speaker 5: of credit to you know, Eric Murray and Jordan Lewis.
17:30
Speaker 5: I was just taking a lot of time with the
17:31
Speaker 5: younger guys and breaking down film and going through different
17:35
Speaker 5: situations just with us and no coaches. So like, I
17:39
Speaker 5: think that's where a lot of our guys game elevated
17:41
Speaker 5: as a as a unit.
17:43
Speaker 2: My apologies and would be kind of seen from Jalen
17:45
Speaker 2: Husky since camp started.
17:47
Speaker 5: Uh, Jay Husky, he he's a dog, he's rangy. He's
17:50
Speaker 5: gonna come up, but he gonna hit.
17:52
Speaker 6: Uh.
17:52
Speaker 5: I see a lot of myself here. He gonna he's
17:54
Speaker 5: he's a great. He gonna be a good player. They
17:57
Speaker 5: gonna be a good player.
17:58
Speaker 1: What do you want your game after? First? This is
18:00
Speaker 1: like maybe when you were a kid versus now.
18:02
Speaker 3: Uh.
18:02
Speaker 5: I I mean I wouldn't say just one player. I
18:05
Speaker 5: like to just take things from each and every player
18:08
Speaker 5: that I grew up watching, like like Tru Poulomolo is
18:11
Speaker 5: one of the ones A read. And then I like
18:13
Speaker 5: Jay Ramsey. Uh, I feel like his versatility is similar
18:17
Speaker 5: to mine, Like he could go inside outside, he blitzed,
18:20
Speaker 5: he plays safety now you know what I'm saying, So
18:23
Speaker 5: I feel like him.
18:24
Speaker 4: Those just a few te me why you guys playing
18:27
Speaker 4: so well back there in that end and and argue
18:29
Speaker 4: I guess, I mean that appears like you are.
18:31
Speaker 5: But I feel like, like I said earlier, we just understand
18:34
Speaker 5: the scheme now like we're w It's not like we're
18:37
Speaker 5: learning now. We know, we know our issues. So when
18:40
Speaker 5: we in certain compages, W we making the offense do
18:43
Speaker 5: what we want them to do, versus like just showing
18:46
Speaker 5: giving them what they want, you know what I'm saying.
18:47
Speaker 5: So I feel like that's what makes us a dominant defense,
18:50
Speaker 5: and what's gonna make us a dominant defense?
18:52
Speaker 2: How was so? Probably didn't with you guys come back
18:56
Speaker 2: from jury.
18:56
Speaker 5: Uh, Caleb doing a great job. We already knew he
18:59
Speaker 5: was a good player before he got hurt.
19:01
Speaker 3: Uh.
19:01
Speaker 5: He fast, he's physical, he could cover really well. Uh
19:05
Speaker 5: with him, he's getting into his flow to his his game.
19:09
Speaker 5: He's getting you know, from his end. He's getting back
19:10
Speaker 5: to his flow. And like I said, he's very athletic.
19:14
Speaker 5: He's understanding the playbook at a high level. And he
19:16
Speaker 5: made a lot of players out here during the camp.
19:19
Speaker 4: Uh, she's bringing in a season veteran like Eric Murray.
19:22
Speaker 4: Was there anything you picked up off of him just
19:24
Speaker 4: over the course of last year that you could specifically highlight?
19:26
Speaker 5: Ah Man, just ring the quarterback. I think me and
19:29
Speaker 5: him talk the most about just ring the quarterback and
19:32
Speaker 5: understanding like how quarterbacks operate on a drop backs and
19:36
Speaker 5: stuff like that, and like being able to get to
19:38
Speaker 5: jump on him. And also just we talk about a
19:41
Speaker 5: lot of like this ball together plays Like when we
19:45
Speaker 5: were going through the like a game we we he
19:47
Speaker 5: talked to me about like plays and formations like he r.
19:49
Speaker 5: He's really helped me elevate my game of like watching film.
19:52
Speaker 5: So now like when I'm going to the game, like, oh,
19:54
Speaker 5: I'm anticipating certain things cause of how he broke down
19:57
Speaker 5: film and how he work watched film together. Thanks to
20:00
Speaker 5: join tipt sent thanks for it.
