Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: How we doing. So I just go off the press.
- 0:09Speaker 2: When to practice this week?
- 0:12Speaker 1: What was the first thing you focused on based on
- 0:14Speaker 1: the results on Saturday and Sunday.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Well, the way that we goes is like you come
- 0:19Speaker 3: back in Monday, you review the game. The guys kind
- 0:22Speaker 3: of work off not with football, and then I would
- 0:25Speaker 3: say the really the thing is like you've got to do.
- 0:31Speaker 3: You can't do too much to try and win a game.
- 0:33Speaker 3: You know, I thought the guys played their heart out.
- 0:36Speaker 3: I thought they played, they pushed the limits of the
- 0:39Speaker 3: way they played. Didn't start the way we wanted to start.
- 0:41Speaker 3: But I think in those terms, you just got to
- 0:43Speaker 3: keep pushing to do the ordinary things extraordinary. And that's
- 0:46Speaker 3: what we talked about, like that's when the plays that
- 0:49Speaker 3: in those games, they made more plays on.
- 0:52Speaker 1: The board than we did, and that's that's the game.
- 0:54Speaker 3: And in those situations you just have to keep coming
- 0:57Speaker 3: back and then today we come Yesterday we came back,
- 0:59Speaker 3: and it's about hitting it and going to get it
- 1:02Speaker 3: and having elite communication, elite execution and keep pushing through
- 1:06Speaker 3: the week for the next game.
- 1:07Speaker 2: What do you think improved or changed about your run
- 1:10Speaker 2: weekends After.
- 1:11Speaker 1: A couple of times.
- 1:14Speaker 3: Really and truthfully, it's just a couple of One of
- 1:17Speaker 3: them was just a fit that you just have to fix,
- 1:21Speaker 3: you know, like it's coming off, get a sideline adjustment,
- 1:24Speaker 3: and that's really it, to be honest with you, like
- 1:28Speaker 3: just those couple of bits. One of them was a
- 1:29Speaker 3: situational run on short yardage, and you clean those things up.
- 1:33Speaker 1: You play with fundamentals against a team like that.
- 1:35Speaker 3: They're a very good running team that have a patient
- 1:38Speaker 3: back that can find a crease, and you have to
- 1:40Speaker 3: You don't play football. You don't say you've got to
- 1:42Speaker 3: be there, because then you won't make any plays. But
- 1:44Speaker 3: you have to be You have to play with extension.
- 1:46Speaker 3: You have to be able to separate from blocks.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Williams thirty four yard run you're talking about the short yardage?
- 1:51Speaker 1: Is that simply fitting the gap.
- 1:54Speaker 3: In this gap and they just got on the edge.
- 1:57Speaker 3: I think it's more of like us making sure we
- 1:59Speaker 3: put the players in the right position. I wouldn't say
- 2:02Speaker 3: it's anyone's exact fault. Were just they done a good job.
- 2:05Speaker 3: We didn't do enough job, Like single play Nick even
- 2:10Speaker 3: or he made yet by the goal.
- 2:12Speaker 1: And for him to to show you that I know
- 2:14Speaker 1: that there was an issue in the game before the
- 2:16Speaker 1: Mike mentioned like he could have.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Made for a fick bounds back and make that effort play.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:21Speaker 3: I think with Nicky he has obviously all these really
- 2:26Speaker 3: good I would say elite physical talents. I think one
- 2:30Speaker 3: thing you sometimes miss is he has a great ability
- 2:33Speaker 3: to just like go to the next thing, go to
- 2:36Speaker 3: the next thing, take on the information, go to the
- 2:38Speaker 3: next thing. And I think in his growth, you have
- 2:41Speaker 3: to be able to do that when you're putting multiple spots,
- 2:43Speaker 3: because you will make some mistakes. You know, there's a
- 2:44Speaker 3: lot of asks for him in an early part of
- 2:47Speaker 3: his career, and he can just go to the next
- 2:49Speaker 3: one and does a good job with that.
- 2:50Speaker 2: And then you said, you know, some sack card everything.
- 2:52Speaker 2: You know, at times it was a game that had
- 2:54Speaker 2: zero sex, which sure felt like there was still pressure
- 2:56Speaker 2: for both teams in that one kind of how do
- 2:58Speaker 2: you kind of look at that game for your guys.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Yeah, it was They're done a good job of getting
- 3:02Speaker 1: the ball out fast.
- 3:03Speaker 3: I think Matt Stafford operates at a very high level.
- 3:07Speaker 1: You had I would say, yeah, there was.
- 3:09Speaker 3: I would say there was probably maybe one or two,
- 3:11Speaker 3: two or two maybe opportunities for them to actually set
- 3:14Speaker 3: the quarterback and in games like that, it's just like
- 3:17Speaker 3: I just started this with, it's like you have to
- 3:20Speaker 3: do those ordinary rush is extraordinary because there is an
- 3:23Speaker 3: opportunity to sack and and you've.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Got to get there.
- 3:25Speaker 3: But they did, They applied pressure, they rushed as one.
- 3:28Speaker 3: They've done a good job.
- 3:29Speaker 1: The rotation of the quarterbacks. Three stories and two spots.
- 3:32Speaker 1: What's the challenge for you guys pitching, why coaching?
- 3:36Speaker 3: I think the challenge is honesty, Like I think that's it,
- 3:39Speaker 3: Like you have people and I say that, I said
- 3:42Speaker 3: it a couple of weeks to you guys, I don't
- 3:44Speaker 3: see it no different as the guys that play on
- 3:45Speaker 3: the front like it's it's competition. And I thought ricas
- 3:50Speaker 3: put games together. He deserves to be on the field,
- 3:52Speaker 3: and you have to find when players are pushing you
- 3:54Speaker 3: to put them on the field. I think it puts
- 3:56Speaker 3: me on mic in a great spot to say okay
- 3:58Speaker 3: and the coaches to say, okay, how did they get
- 4:00Speaker 3: on the field and find ways.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Do you spell out the rotation before the games to Hi, yes,
- 4:06Speaker 1: they know they're.
- 4:08Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to, Like I said, it's honestly, you
- 4:10Speaker 3: have to. I think clarity in the way that Mike
- 4:14Speaker 3: conveys information to us and we will compared it to
- 4:16Speaker 3: our players is one of the most important things of having,
- 4:18Speaker 3: Like the successful culture.
- 4:19Speaker 2: He does the Devonte Adams touchdown, Is there any way
- 4:24Speaker 2: to defend that, Yeah.
- 4:26Speaker 3: It's hard, like the leverage he had could have done
- 4:30Speaker 3: a bad job, Like, yeah, it is a hard it
- 4:33Speaker 3: was it was a good play.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Okay, if your games have with Kobe will give something
- 4:37Speaker 2: up early and thinking maybe like Arizona game down player last.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Year to come back and made the play.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Mumble Sunday picked up Kyler last year. Why did he
- 4:45Speaker 3: respond with the league because I think it's just NFL football,
- 4:49Speaker 3: Like he has to. You have to limit errors and
- 4:52Speaker 3: keep pushing. But I think Kobe's a savage competitor. He
- 4:58Speaker 3: wants to he wants to make every play, and sometimes
- 5:01Speaker 3: you do and in this league, and sometimes that that
- 5:03Speaker 3: does and you have to reboot and go again. And
- 5:06Speaker 3: I think he does a great job of that. Like
- 5:08Speaker 3: that's just NFL football.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Great, great the jug of the earlier of the.
- 5:12Speaker 2: Day, but a small play backer pretty look at every
- 5:16Speaker 2: bother one. He said that, So let's get like two
- 5:18Speaker 2: twenty eight?
- 5:18Speaker 3: How is he playing linebacker? The guy we didn't tell
- 5:22Speaker 3: him that, that's simple.
- 5:26Speaker 2: How's he doing that at two twenty eight?
- 5:28Speaker 1: What are you doing?
- 5:29Speaker 3: I think there's there's quite a few linebackers that play
- 5:31Speaker 3: at like two twenty eight in this league.
- 5:34Speaker 1: I think he does a great job.
- 5:35Speaker 3: Like we could say, like, yes, is he smaller than
- 5:40Speaker 3: maybe some of the linebackers, but ron smaller than some
- 5:42Speaker 3: of the D tackles.
- 5:43Speaker 1: I think like he.
- 5:47Speaker 3: Good players understand their deficiencies, they understand the superpowers and
- 5:51Speaker 3: they use them.
- 5:52Speaker 1: And he's just doing that.
- 5:56Speaker 3: His ability to process information, his ability to execute information
- 5:59Speaker 3: and to hit them.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Oh, he gets around the football. Hier Murphy ran down
- 6:03Speaker 1: a couple dec from behind a can lay. Is he
- 6:06Speaker 1: faster than you thought he was when he got he
- 6:08Speaker 1: ran for it coming out? He's pretty fast. He's a
- 6:11Speaker 1: pretty fast player.
- 6:12Speaker 3: I think you know what I think it is right
- 6:16Speaker 3: now with those plays where he's making them, like we're
- 6:18Speaker 3: talking about outside the number of plays and pushing downfield.
- 6:22Speaker 3: Is the plays like Leo stop on that fourth.
- 6:26Speaker 1: And fifteen against Washington.
- 6:28Speaker 3: When you have players making plays like that, the younger
- 6:30Speaker 3: players look at him and they understand what it takes
- 6:34Speaker 3: to like finish drives and and winning those moments, you know,
- 6:37Speaker 3: and they've done a great job of kind of like
- 6:40Speaker 3: leading the younger guys and showing them those things.
- 6:43Speaker 2: How does crossover take go.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Into what you guys a lot? Like when you mean
- 6:48Speaker 1: crossover tap, you mean teams up? What do you mean
- 6:51Speaker 1: by that question? How would you explain that I take crossroads?
- 6:55Speaker 3: I would say just looking at teams that kind of
- 6:58Speaker 3: play like us, and how teams play against them, things
- 7:01Speaker 3: like that.
- 7:01Speaker 2: How do you like it plays like you, guys?
- 7:04Speaker 3: I would say, like teams that have come from the
- 7:06Speaker 3: Baltimore system.
- 7:09Speaker 1: How is that helpful put with you? Guys?
- 7:10Speaker 2: It's it similar like if your team attacks Baltimore or
- 7:13Speaker 2: the Titan's like you, does it show.
- 7:14Speaker 3: Up again when they play you? Or they change sometimes sometimes?
- 7:17Speaker 3: Not like I think systems. It's just like you play
- 7:21Speaker 3: the forty nine ers. Their system, their offensive system is
- 7:24Speaker 3: like our offensive system. Clint does it a different way.
- 7:27Speaker 3: I think like sometimes you just pick and choose. You
- 7:29Speaker 3: look at it and you kind of look and you
- 7:32Speaker 3: that's the art of coaching, that's the art of game planning.
- 7:35Speaker 2: How much stock do you guys put in the like
- 7:38Speaker 2: a defensive tackles forty time. I mean, it seems like
- 7:40Speaker 2: there's not many times in a game where they're at
- 7:42Speaker 2: a full spread expose.
- 7:46Speaker 3: I think, like you look at the ten time, you
- 7:47Speaker 3: look at the forty time. Guys, it's hard for a
- 7:50Speaker 3: big man to run that fast and not not respect
- 7:53Speaker 3: the fact that they're running that fast, you know, because
- 7:56Speaker 3: they have got to create elite explosion to move down
- 7:59Speaker 3: the that you know.
- 8:01Speaker 1: So, like, I think you do have to take in
- 8:03Speaker 1: can I look at the short terms a lot more?
- 8:05Speaker 3: I'll be honest with you, But when someone's running that
- 8:09Speaker 3: type of speed, when they're running like when they're over
- 8:10Speaker 3: three hundred punds and they're running sub like four nine,
- 8:13Speaker 3: you've got to pay attention to that.
- 8:15Speaker 1: There we else have a great weekend.
