get everybody in position it's better to stand though right it's good all right what do you got how would you read your practice week just how the yeah we're making we're uh we're making strides um just a common understanding of what the expectations are what it what it takes to go win games um it's process over results so no matter kind of what comes out of the game you're always revaluating uh what the work went you know going in and um I think we had a we had a really strong week with Kenneth Walker I guess what can you tell us the chances are he plays Sunday no doubtful with Ken and George is there any concern about surgery anything more serious than uh then just week to week with who was I I I was all distracted baby H um yeah I'm not mean I'm we're just going to kind of let it play out right now how did Kim kind of go through the weekend magic M kind of how he's feeling as for he feels good he's uh he's getting better um but right now it's doubtful and we we'll go from there Z sharp if he's guy steeping up taking on a bigger role uh yeah I mean we've look we got a all these guys have not just the running back room but across the board I mean there's a lot of Bank reps on on Deck here and uh when your number's called let's let's go rock and roll so um guys had a great week of practice and still not over yet still got another day still got a walk through um another 48 hours or so before we actually go play the game so um we're in a good spot if K Ken can't go for for numers for numbers for you you would you need some additional help maybe some practice that yeah I mean like you guys you guys know the drill like if we're going to update if we're going to bring anybody up it's going to happen tomorrow I'm not going to tell you today you're G to have to find out tomorrow sorry I just it's the best best for the team just to not not tell you coach they're having Malcolm Butler do something at halftime twisting a knife a little bit with Seattle do you you connect these guys with the history a little bit between these two franchises representing the city in this game no uh I didn't know that was going on this game is about our guys and their guys who can play a better game for the whole game our guys know that um yeah this game it's pretty simple they they're adults but is messaging about staying focused not social media in your process when you're teaching teams just to stay focused on the game talk about just from week to week and yeah I mean week to week and in general just in terms of who you are as a coach and what you're trying to get them to focus and I would say minimize distractions is the best way that I can put it outside of the well I mean inevitably there's a lot of distractions with everything so um it's kind of part of the game uh unfortunately but uh it's also good because people are interested in in what we do so that's that's also great but uh I think the mentality that we're preaching and the guys that are buying into is just this the whole Moment by moment philosophy of um stacking wins and and you know you can't win two games until you win one you can't have a good play until you you know you go to the next one so that's the mentality and just try to keep it as simple as possible and uh stand the moment win those moments uh relish those moments you know cherish those things because these are this is a pretty cool opportunity that we have to go you know be a team go across the country go play a football game in front of so many people so um that's our mentality I know you've put there before but will being a head coach in that Stadium be anything more to you kind of giv just your your history there I this is the probably the worst press conference you guys have ever gotten from me it's just like no it's just uh I just I wish I had some profound thing but like now man it's about leading our guys and um making the decisions is going to take for us to go win the game it's really I know it's just I I wish I wish I was cooler you know I wish I I I wish I was more yeah I'm not the most interesting man in the world I'm sorry gas tower lock it he'll have some things going on what do you what do you gather from the other players who've already played a 10 a.m. game this is your first 10 a.m. game from the West Coast the East Coast yeah you got to get up you got to get ready to go um no messing around a lot of the stuff we did in the offseason was tailored for for these you know for these trips so uh we'll see we'll see where the guys are ready but they understand that we're going to have to it's going to come early but um um people have played football games going east before we've done it we've done it at a high level here so um the expectations to go out and and start the game fast what do you work on uh or do on the flight out long flight how do you use that time uh everyone's different right now I'm treating it like a Friday afternoon so the things I would do on a Friday um try not to sleep too much because um going to need a good night sleep tonight and try to limit the Naps that's what that's what Sam tells me at least so iding by the rules how much work were Tyrell and Jerome able to get this week and practice how much work have they gotten Yeah question I'm gonna be real vague with you Mike enough work um where they what are they listed at right now questionable I just look I I want to I want to help you I just I want to help our team more how do you feel about the back the backup at that spot feel great about them yeah I mean I love all our guys I mean they're on our team they're working hard you know their num's called let's rock and roll what's been you messaging about hope this works it's not going to work well I'll try something what you messaging around a fast start on your offense and staying okay okay we can go that direction that's fine I mean um yeah it's not it's not fun to play from behind you know it's not fun to get a couple safeties in the first couple drives and throw inter ceptions and like we can't operate like that and be sustain have sustained success the guys know that so um that's been a it's not just this week it's a point of emphasis that's just how you win games in the NFL you know you start with the lead you get a stop you know all of a sudden the odds are in your favor and you're in a way favorable position moving forward so we want to live there and uh if not then we'll live in the in the other spot in the dark spot but um all all sequel you want to start the games fast you told us that you had a sleep specialist what talked to the team the other day what was the gist of that um well s super important but just kind of giving them a strategy for handling the week trying to bank some some hours over the course of the week um what their strategy is once they get in sleeping on the plane how much you want to do it and so forth I mean it's easy to just fall asleep on a cross country flight but um it's not necessarily what's best for you to get ready to go play a 10 a.m. game do you do a walk through at the stadium there or you have a phos uh we'll try to find places to go do a walk through um on the road just try to keep our normal Saturday schedu as as close to we normally as uh close to what we're used to just referenced dark place I think you said ad said that I just I thought that resonated felt felt good when he said it term he brought to you or is that what no that was ad all the way yeah it's uh he's got a great message man hit us hit the bullseye on that one given the preseason you had for you it was it nice to get Jamie Sheriff back in back oh yeah yeah it was great to have him back so um I was kidding I was like did we give you new gear or did you save the gear that we gave you how did that work out you know did you get rid of it when you left I don't know how that works what did he say no he said he kept it he said he kept it which is good means he liked it here when you're putting the finish and touches on a game plan uh is there anything particular like you finish it with like situational or third down or anything um different ways to skin a cat but it's uh us you're working through early Downs early part of the week kind of getting more specialize things middle of the week and then at the end it's like end of game scenarios uh High leverage plays things like that so um that's kind of where we're at right now in our process does that include like when to go for it and stuff like that is that in that bucket of things uh that's more I mean that happens latter part of the week it's that's an ongoing thing throughout the week um but we'll finalize that tomorrow do you have a favorite part of that oh man uh no it's it's just it's an feels good to like call it in the right spot that you feel confident like if you get a good quick call in um normally you're pretty excited about what's going to happen do you have question no you know going to the dark place cam chancer used to say that oh okay I didn't know that yeah and see it's fitting all ties together anything else all right sorry guys
