  Speaker 1: Like this one tend to stick around the team a little.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Bit longer they do any loss. Right, Uh, there's a
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: tough one to a tough one to deal with, you
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: know after the game. Obviously today we gotta we gotta
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: go back through it. But I will say there was
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: there was a lot of good too that came out
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: of this football game. Things that we can we can
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: coach and teach and and correct and and show the
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: show the guys, you know. So but yeah, this, you know,
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: games like this are uh, you know, they're always gonna hurt.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: That did the h did did you all just get
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: conservative or did you get conservatives to play calls or
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: RBS home and place any second half?
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Or did you look at seventeen to seven?
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: The defense is playing pretty darg on good.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: There's no need to.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: Air out too much.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know what game you were watching, because we
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: had a backed up drive started at the three yard line.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: We ripped off for a twenty six yard run I think,
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: and then we came back and hit Gabe and we
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: hit TJ in the flat. Next thing you know, we're
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: at the fifteen and we fumble going in. So that's
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: pretty aggressive to me in the second half. So no,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: I don't feel like, you know, I liked it to
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: go for it, you know on our end of the field,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: showing sign of aggressive aggressiveness there defense did a great
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: job of stopping them and missing a kick. So kind
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: of a wash. But no, not at all, you know,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: we just third downs was our nemesis.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: Brian didn't get his target the second half?
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Is that a factor of was it open?
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: If everyone wasn't get enough time, maybe things were getting
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: called his way like they weren't first half.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: No, you know, you look at the it's really the
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: tail of two halves. I mean, you know, offensively, I
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: felt like in the second half we did some good
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: things in the run game to try to you know,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: stay ahead, which we which we did it. But it
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: was nothing, nothing in the game plan that took us
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: away from not throwing it to Brian or not throwing
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: it to Gabe or Christian. You know, if you go
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: back and look even look at some of the third
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: downs that we had, you know, they were they were
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: in unique situations that uh you know, and they were
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: third and really long, you know, and and gave up
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: a couple of sacks in those situations too. What about
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: he's gonna miss the time, the hope that you can
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: have him back before London, or I'm not gonna put that,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: uh put him in a box that way. I'm not
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: gonna put any expectations on it. We're just gonna let
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: him go, you know, week to week and see where
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: he see where he comes.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Everybody's good last year about in the old second the season,
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: about you know, it was it was hard to find
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: a player that could be the swart to kind of
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: get it turned around.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: Is it a concern that, obviously after the et and
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: fumble a full quarter and no one was really able
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: to make that kind of place so that you guys
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: could walk out of there with a win.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Are you asking if there's one specific player just to
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: in general the place of what in general? I guess
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I don't understand the question.
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Just is it a concern that you guys had trouble
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: closing at the end of last year and you go
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: in God's game and you're about to go up seventeen,
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: but unfortunately a very good player fumbles, But there's seventeen
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: minutes left of game time, and it didn't seem like
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: anybody really played well in the final seventeen.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you take a look, you take that
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: play away, or you say you make that play right,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: you're in the end zone. It was twenty four to
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: seven at the end of the third, right, and then
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: you're kicking off as opposed to giving them the ball
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: at the twenty. You know, we can stand here and
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: play shuldar would it could have all day long. Bottom
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: line is, you know, we did not do enough to
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: finish the football game. And these are all the things
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: that as coaches and players, you know, we need to fixed.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: We need to fix and and get corrected before. You know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: before this week.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: How'd your offensive line play? I mean, all anyone remembers
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: or will remember, there's last two.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: Sacks, But how did they play up to that point?
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: And how do you grade it?
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: You know, to me, sacks are a combination of a
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: lot of different things. There's a lot of factors. Miami
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: was in two man on the last one, great job
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: covered us up right. The other one, you know, Trevor
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: was was off on his progression a little bit. And
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: it happens a quarterback. So there's quarterbacks, there's the offensive line,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: there's receivers, there's the defense. So sacks sacks can go
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: a bunch of different directions, you know. So from that standpoint,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: you know we need to we need again just just
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: be better in those situations. And and what was the
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: second half of your first half? Tell us offensive line,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: that's what we were talking about. You distracted me with
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: the sacks. If you look at the bottom line, you
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: rush for one hundred and twenty eight yards on paper. Great? Right, great?
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: And they played they played really well. Now we got
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: to do better in short yardage, We got to do
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: better in fourth and one. We got to do better, uh,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: in certain areas. But overall, I thought they played physical,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: they came off the football. We had I think a
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: few communication errors that that took us off, some some
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: blocking schemes, all things that we can fix and and
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: you know, get better. You fix the third and one
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: and fourth and one. Keep doing it, keep doing it,
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: keep doing it. You know, I'm gonna continue to trust
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the players. We're gonna we're gonna continue to put them
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: in good situations and good plays, and and you know,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: we'll just continue to execute better.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Take one of the bright spots is that his best
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: game was a bro.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Probably, so you know, probably, so still a little room
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: for improvement, But he did. He did some nice things
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: and there's some some things that you know, we gotta
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: continue to as a young player, continue to detail with
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: him as well.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: Getting hit like that give them confidence.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Sure with Taisa obviously Buster went in yesterday. Is it
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: playing kind of Buster moving forward or seeing.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: We'll see, Yeah, we'll see how the week goes. Uh,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: what the what the plan is gonna be and and
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: how Ryan wants to handle it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: What Look do you think of jar the way he
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: played early, especially getting matched up on Tyree pretty much
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: right away.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I thought he played really well. I thought he played
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: really well. I didn't think there was much hesitation in
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: his play. You know, he did the things he was
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: asked to do. He played physical and you know what
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: we saw in training camp. So you know, to go
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: against somebody, you know, like Tyreek, your first game out
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: as a as an NFL as a pro, I mean
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: that's a that's a large task. And I thought he
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: did a nice job. I thought Darby did a nice job.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: And you know, again, we've we've got some we've got
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: some things we got to clean up back there. But
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: but overall, the guys played, guys played hard, that played physical.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Sixty three yard at the model or whatever.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Was that just a matter of not expecting him coming
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: across the middle of the fields. It's just, uh, we
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: were in cover too, and you know, unfortunately I'll say
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: this and I'm I'll never do this. Uh, we have
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: to coach to play better.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: That eighty yard that the player you just kind of
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: hat tip to them. It seems like it was a
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: good design.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: We need to coach it better. We have to play
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: They ran all game.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it looked like in the fourth quarter it was
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: almost exclusively run plays offensively until that final drive where
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: there was a couple.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Of passes at him.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: Where the with the sacks.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Was that by design specifically or was it just situational football.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Or when you say by design, uh, that that that Uh,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, there's a there's a time in
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: the game where we as coaches offensive coaches felt like
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: our offensive line was taking over the football game. And
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: when you get in that sort of frame of mind,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: the idea, especially when they're when the big guys are
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: feeling it a little bit, as we say, is you
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: continue to run the football right and and if that's
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: by design, then then that's what we did. If it's
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: by execution, then that's what we did. If it's by
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: our offensive line playing well, then that's what we did.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. So if we needed to
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: throw the ball and no, listen, three minutes to go
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: in a game, it's seventeen seventeen. Game was not one
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: or lost at that particular time. We didn't do enough
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: at the end of the game offensively to stay on
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: the field, which came down to third downs and we
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: had some some second down situations in there. So those
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: are all things that we need to we need to fix.
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: You after watching the team with ver performance yesterday.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Out with you, I mean, it was it was good,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: wasn't There's some things there's some things that we showed
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: him today that we can get better at, you know,
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: and and and it's just it's just a matter of
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: him just again just continuing to see it, trust it.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: But he but I'll tell you this, he did. He
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: he made some He made some really good throws too.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Be able to see bet on the first, you know,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: the first d pass you know, for the for the
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: d p I and then the throw to him and
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: the for the touchdown, and gave a couple of times
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: he made some he made some really good throws and
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: and just things that we're going to continue to work
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: with and but we know we got to get better there,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: you know, pitching and kitchen.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: Throw to Brian and the back of the end.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Zone from where your vantage point?
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Did did you see it happen? And you know it lived.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: It almost looked like he's just kind of putting it
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: out there, throwing it away to make sure no one
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: else got it.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: To your eye, you don't see practice like we do.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: So that's a player we wrepped in practice and he
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: made the exact same throw over the safety. So we
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: make sure that we try to put our players in
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: these situations during the week of practice so that when
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: they get to the game, you know they can execute
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: and execute well. So just a there wasn't much room
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: back there, and it was a perfectly placed you know,
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: it might have been like the Atlanta preseason game where
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: you might have been thinking that he was throwing the
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: ball away to Evan and Evan comes down with the touchdown.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: So h just a just a great throw, great catch
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: by two players that that we you know, we practice
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: all the time in our red zone days. Absolutely not.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: An offered injury. What's the uh, what's the challenge in
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: terms of personnel and with just a quarterback sneak when
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: you meet thew yord instead of and not having him
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: like put the ball over, but just like get low
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: and have a couple players behind him just basically push
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: it into him and see if you can get a
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: yard that way. Is it just like a personel thing
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: that you just don't feel comfortable that work?
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, those work, they do work. It was more than
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: a yard. It was about a yard and the ball,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: So it's a little bit harder in those situations, you know,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: to get the full yard and half on a sneak,
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: you know, and we we looked for we look for opportunities.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: I mean the even on the fourth down play, it
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: was a you know, you saw Trevor you know, stand
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: up and gesture and do different things. And there are opportunities.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: But when the look doesn't present itself, we have to
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: do something else and and you know, but but we'll
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: always look for opportunities to to sneak the football.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: It's like Devin Lloyd made a lot of players out there.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Did you guys feel good about his performance?
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I thought Devin played really really fast, played physical,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: he was downhill. Uh he took on blockers and and uh,
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: you know, tackled well in space. I thought he, you know,
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: played played real well overall against the run good I think,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: uh the two had the longest run of the day.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: I think it was a scramble potentially, So I thought
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: against the run we did, we did some really good
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: things stopping that and and uh, you know, to me,
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: it just came down to those three three plays. It
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: was like one hundred and eighty two yards and three
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: three pass plays and you know, the first third and
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: eight screen went for thirty nine I think then the
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: sixty three in the eighties. So we those those are
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: the plays we have to eliminate. And I think it's
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: a different outcome. Yeah what you expected out of air for.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: A guy who yeh, done much. Yeah, didn't have to.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: Didn't look like he didn't have any It didn't look
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: like the time loft impacted running, right.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Anybody else? Thank you, coach,
