  Speaker 1: How we doing good on Tuesday. Let's go game on Thursday.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: That's why.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: I know that you're gonna go back and you're looking
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: at a tape cause you're look like these guys cause
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: you're most.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Is there any danger in putting too much thought or
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: we'll see?
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: And I say that because of how uh how much
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: you guys who didn't go back stat No, you're s
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: You're playing against an excellent team that has the answers
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: for everything. They show it on tape week in week out.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: You have to you have to delve down. You have
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: to look at it and say, how are we gonna
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: do this, how we gonna do our style, our way
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: and ultimately allow the players to play fast on Thursday night.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Like that's that's where you stop.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Some some folks would look at the first game they
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: had as good as you guys can do. But I
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: talked to guys in the locker room like we didn't
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: play run the way we wanted to play. How how
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: do you look at that game?
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, say exactly how they sort that we gave up
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: some runs that they had a good plan, they got
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: us and they get well, I think like two or
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: three explosive runs that gave them an opportunity to score.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: And when you're playing the football that we have the
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: vision we want to play as a collective, you don't
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: let them on the ball. You have to you have
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: to keep working and keep fighting and keep playing to
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: allow that to happen.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: They've been leading so much on their thirteen personnel this year,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: especially in the last couple of weeks.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Devonte's injury now probably gonna leave heavier that.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: But how much do you balance, especially a short week,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: what they've been doing recently with what Sean McVay has
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: done in the past, where they've mixed it a lot
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: more eleven personnel, and like, how do you try to
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: manage that?
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Especially the Yeah, you just have to look at how
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: they're playing, how they're playing on early downs, how they're
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: playing on different situations in the game, and kind of
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: look at the averages and get ready for those those
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: situations and be ready to adapt as the game goes.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: He's he's an excellent player.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: So if you lose an excellent player, we could say
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: the same thing.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: We've had situation as well.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: We've lost excellent players and players have stepped up in
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: an excellent way. So I assume they're well coached, they're
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: gonna the guys are gonna come to play, so we
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: just gotta play. It was a cool experience, you know,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: Like I think it's hard to kind of put yourself
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: in that guy's shoes. You know, he's like he's a
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: we forget sometimes I know you guys, but like being
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: around him. He's so mature and the way he approaches things.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: He's such a professional. You forget that he's a rookie.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: And to go through all the stuff that he's gone
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: through and get himself back to that moment and playing
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: that game. I just had the utmost respect, Like here
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: takes step forwards. He'll learn from the things that he
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: didn't do well, and there's the little things he's done well.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: And the approach was right, where can we tweak it?
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: And he's already asking those questions. He'll be fun. He
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: said he was a little biager and maybe did on
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a couple.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Of He's playing in front of an O pro player
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: and he lined up and he wasn't afraid and he
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: got to go in and took his shot and he
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: fell down.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And get to the next play him that you put
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: into more of a tap of.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Ping over the guards instead of game.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, he's like three h eight, he's a big man.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: He's like to me. He can play multiple spots.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: But just like any player that you have that's a
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: young guy, you put him in one spot, you allow
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: him to learn him grow, and then we can move
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: on from there.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: We ask you about this past weeks.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: But with a team like the Rams that can change
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: you from eleven to thirteen different things, just how much
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: should do players like Evan Warriam Spoon who can do
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: so many different things allow you.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Guys sort of play the defense you.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Want regardless or what. Yeah, they definitely do, and but
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: you also have to be ready for different scenarios.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: So like the multiple packages we can.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Create and get into different things, they help us and
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: allow players to play and own their roles.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: So I think it's a bit of both.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Really, Julian Lover or Jared Reed, the first time you
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: guys played this year, how much does that change how
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: you approach a game.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it changes.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: I think when you add them, you just you get
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: the spot that some of those guys give you.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: And I don't.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: I don't really look like right now, with the players
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: that play you have to. You have to build a
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: plan that works for them always. I say, if it's
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Leo or it is Riley, you know, like you have
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: to look at what these guys can do really well
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: and feature them in the way they need to be featured.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: How do you feel like the pass rush has been
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: performing the last few weeks.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I thought, I thought last week.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I know this is gonna sound a bit strange to
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: you guys, but last week was one of the best
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: I've seen us play.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I said it to the d Line the other day.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: Is that when you when you start affecting the passer
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: on a high level, you can alter the way the
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: game's played, like speed up the clock.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: You can change the way.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: And we face two teams that have played a game
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: where it's run and the ball comes out and extremely
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: fast rate. And what that does is suddenly at times
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: when there's times to throw the ball and it is
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: actually time to rush, it slows you down because you've
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: got into this mold of like bulls just coming out,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: bulls just coming out.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get there.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: But I thought last week they went and I thought
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: they got off the rock, they pressed the blocks, they
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: played the run excellence, got themselves in those positions, and
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: they probably had like two or three ups the whole game,
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: and they got close, you know, like they played a
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: QB that was getting the ball out and I was,
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I was happy with.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Him yesterday's work absolutely, probably single game, and that was.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Just kind of what do you kind of make an agament?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: He had kind of worries that you too, and everything
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: you pass.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: I think Virron's playing at a lage level, especially on
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: early downs. I think sometimes on the third down he's
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: got to keep pushing to get his win so he
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: can play and all these down and all these situations
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: at an extremely high level.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: But he when he's on, he's pretty much unblockable.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: And the two I thought both of them, him and
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Leo played at an extremely high level last week.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: You wing Riley back into the rotations. How much can
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: that help everybody else? Add another body that rotation if
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: you get to the late season game, Yeah, definitely.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: And it's just but it's just also you've got to
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: have the mindset of allowing him to develop. Like we're
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: in week sixteen and he's just come back, so like
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: you don't want to throw him in there and he
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: knock his confidence he's got he's got to find his
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: way back and make plays and own his role and
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: that that will happen.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Back to Murphy when he does the drop one knee
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: when they get double t you get it in Texas?
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: You encourage that or is that just a that's a
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: dangerous and unique skilly.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: I think when when people want to course screw like
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: that and drop their knee, it's like that's a style
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: that they have, and then if they can not perfect
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: it but close to it, which he does, then you
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: have to allow people.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: To play like that. Have you had a guy do that? No,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: not as regular I played with a guy I played.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: I coached a guy in twenty one and done that
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: and he's pretty good.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Do you have to do you have to adjust anything
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: in a game plan for a Thursday night game in
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: terms of what you call the start or what you
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: have to be aware of what they might be able
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: to do in the fourth quorder.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: I think on a Thursday night game, the number one
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: thing is your players player as fast as they possibly can.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: You you need to see you need to see the
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: best version of them, so like it's giving them a
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: plan that is about them, and that's what we're trying
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: They just walk on a rotation.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: So like they both play, they play in different packages
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: and they go on thats no, not really, but all
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: three of them, like normally you think sometimes guys are
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: in the boundary they can handle the X. I think
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: all three of them can handle the X. So like
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: they all can play in different positions.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: It's a good luxury.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: How much your game plan for players on opposing teams versus.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Schemes both you always have to, Like if there's a
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: guy that could potentially wreck the game or you have
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: a good matchup for you have to you have to
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: be aware of them at every like, at every position
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: in this league, because there is there's special players that
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: can do special things, and you sometimes you think can
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: you allow them, can you give them the opportunity to
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: do that.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Or can you shut that down? So it's I it's
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: a kind of balancing act.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Your corner rotation is pretty determined or on a.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Field thing or do you go, it's pretty determinative.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: It's you'll be described you're playing this game, I discribe
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: you're playing.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, is it a Kobe Parkinson's gotta be kind of big.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's money obviously playing here before you guys got here.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: But this what kind of threat has.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: He that he shows up all of the field, especially
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: in the red zone. He's doing a great job like this.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: He is that's he is a threat and you have
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: to see.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: That anything else. Thanks, thanks guys,
