guys can ask I'll open up for questions the the last two days two days previous the seven interceptions off of your starting quarterback uh what were you guys doing defensively to to create those kind of takeaways um we always stress the ball it's always everything like that's hugely what it is I mean but as far as like scheme we're just every day is just work hard get better I mean that's really it taking it day by day there's no Outland scheme or anything like that it's just being detailed in what we do and that's playing hard playing physical violent you know having that speed and communication that we have to have and then it's just executing but the main thing is our guys are just competing every day just work hard get better that's that's your focus every day then stuff like that works out and you get the ball because you're executing and you know you create some some confusion up front you know with guys in his face and everything just rushing coverage ties together so it's just about the work and you know guys made plays we got guys are making plays and that's important what are your early impressions of two new defensive tackles you have Collins and Elliot there it's been great I mean the whole group's been really fun to work with and watch and see how they work and you know Elliott is so explo he's so powerful and you know he's got some movement too but he's explosive he's so big he's a lot bigger than you think you stand next to him and he does a very powerful hands and and you know Malik is very Dynamic moves really well but he also has that power too and you're seeing that from hard grave and from from Kevin and Kalia and really all those Ty I mean just the whole group you're seeing them compete and you know seeing those explosive Dynamic you know guys that we like that can move but also have power and it's just it's fun to watch them all compete new role in the hip hip drop tackle have you guys have to coach guys up on that or how how do you approach that or is it uh watch some stuff on it I think we'll address it in the future probably at some point often talked about the the leaps that a player can make from year one to to year two you've got a lot of year two Defenders under you what do you tell them when their rookie season is over and they're going into the off season about you know what to do in the offseason and to come in you know having made that leap I think a lot of is just it's just a comfort thing I I vividly remember even myself like from year one to year two just jogging on the field that second year it's just it's n day difference just in where you were at you just played college you had bowl game you trained for this combine and and stuff and then it just it was like a full year and then now you learn what it was to be a pro and really it's about being in the system being in the building it's like I'm not a student athlete anymore I'm a professional football player so you've already kind of have your system so there's a comfort level you've got plans in place you've got people around you who you trust as far as teammates and coaches and and staff so I think it's more of it's a comfort level that they learn and a lot of guys it's you know just being around you know these veteran guys that can help them as well but for us it is it's about okay here's where you were how good can you be because a lot of time you see them start to ascend during that first year anyway so it's like okay let's see the jump and you just challenge them like the two um seconde linebackers Graham and in Winters both had nice plays today I mean have you seen that leap from from both of them can you kind of talk about where each of them is absolutely I mean d winners plays fast so when you and and so does Jaylen the way to play fast is to know what you're doing and to feel comfortable in that and then you're anticipating it you got to learn a whole new system you know it's totally different in college there's a lot of differences and and then the details of what we do so it's understanding the differences in the offenses and then understand the details of the defense and once you start to grasp that it starts to become second nature your brain's not slowing you down then you can see that speed and you can fully cut it loose and that's where they're at they're taking that jump both of them it's cool a lot of the nickel stuff last year so you work with demo a lot Fred Warner saying last year that the guys that can play in the same game outside and inside are really rare yeah are they for first of all and what enables Deo to do that it is hard it's tough it's rare to it happens so fast inside and then you have to have a different skill set in there as far as just the tackling and being able to all right we're playing this coverage you know this Stone coverage or now I'm playing it inside it's different you have different run fits you've got to get your run pass and then you've got to be able to man up outside where there's space and that guy can work so it is impressive that he could do it not a lot of guys can especially in the in the game but that's something we like our guys that have versatility you know it teaches you a lot and then it also adds to you know who we can have up and you know you got to be prepared for that too based on positions you know just like we talked about last time I think with you know gross Matos having the inside pass rush versatility you know it's big for your team really talk about Renardo green least giving a shot in the slot how has he done with his opportunities there I'm happy with the progress I mean he's picking it up quick he's again same thing as Deo we're working him inside and outside we're doing that with a few guys he's doing good really good have you decided if Staley's going to be in the booth for games yeah he's going to be upstairs yep what the biggest challenge for you in this promotion of becoming the defensive coordinator having that top spot I think it's you just your day is different now you have different responsibilities so it's just you know planning that out working through it and just understanding that all right I'm I'm charge of my staff and the entire defense and what we want to look like like these are the changes I may want to do this is how I want today to look and these are how I want everyone to coach the position and you know do certain things I'm the final say really on that and you know it's just been fun you know once you get to the games it's you know making the calls and but it's really the preparation it's the preparation of the week and the offseason and training camp it's been really really fun you're making those calls and sending them into Fred is there a certain Dynamic of the relationship you and Fred kind of be on the same page so we can I don't know so what's your relationship with Fred yeah Fred it's good it's I mean he's a great guy it's I mean he's really really smart he he knows every part of this defense he understands so I do like to talk through what I'm thinking on certain things and you know why we're doing something today and tomorrow and so the to keep developing the relationship and talking through that with him has has been good Sor it's been asked earlier this week aahan said the defensive the defensive side of the ball pretty much won practice on Monday and then it seems kind of the same thing happened yesterday what's the reason for that I I don't know I was talking about this with some of the coaches I don't know if it's the standard of and now my mindset always I I never I don't really think of it like that I always feel like I see what we can be so I I don't feel like we're just winning the day like you say I expect to to be like that and we have a great offense and I see the problems they give us too and it makes us better and I enjoy when they have something that's gives us trouble cuz it it challenges us to think think and to play better and I just know where we can be so it's you know win the day whatever did we get better that's all I care about really that day like did we work hard did we get better did we finish did we play with that speed violence and finish that we really it's about that every day demo was talking about um strategizing with with Staley and some of the things that he's taught him already in terms of percentages and when to look something and I think on a radio interview he even said he was like the the defense of Kyle in terms of knowing strategy so to be in your position and have an offensive strategist and a defensive strategist of that caliber what's that like it's great like I said it's been great having him here I mean he's really smart he's got a lot of experience and stuff like that it's huge you know it's been awesome thank you guys thank you
