 Ryan, how challenging was it to watching the film of Monday and how much better can you, you know, how how easy will it be to bounce back from that? Definitely be easy to be a lot better than that. You know, tough, tough to watch that film, you know, I watched it, I think five times over the Sunday, Monday, kind of went through everything multiple times and looked at the areas where I can be better or we can be better and, you know, I think we nailed those down and excited to move forward. Or was it just one of those, like for you, just an off game being with a lot of new pieces? Yeah, definitely wasn't my best day. Obviously, I think there's no calls about that. I think a lot of areas like me better excited to to be better in those areas this week. Do you feel like it was different from before as I can seem like before you'll see it let it rip immediately. But maybe this time, like you weren't believing what you were seeing at times or what do you think was behind some of the, you know, the misreads or opportunities that throw the ball where you did? I don't necessarily think that that was it. I'm not going to get in break down the whole game right here, but definitely areas where I can be better for sure. So what are some of those areas you want to be better? Every area where you look like I could be better than that's probably it. Yeah, no question. We have to be consistent in what we're doing. We're out here on the practice field and then have it translate over to the games. We can't have inconsistencies there, you know, across the board whenever we're we're on playing on Sundays, right? So just making sure that we take advantage of the reps in practice and then it matches up with what we're doing on Sundays. When you watched it, which was more concerning the turnovers for the couple of players where you missed guys that could have had big plays if the catch is completed? You want to get it all fixed. I don't think that you look at any of it and are all right with it. You want to you want to go out and play good football, and that's what I aim to do this week. Are there plays where something when you're looking at it after the fact and you see something that popped open on the backside where where you just weren't going to see that in the construct of the play? Or what do you think like when you see that Berks is coverage completely broke down on the one pick top? Yeah, there's certain areas where reads where you're picking a side picking a match up and you're not going to be able to see the other side of the field. Sucks when that happens, right? Whenever you are on the wrong side, but you know, you see it happen across the league every week, you know, I'm watching, watching multiple games and and it happens, right? It's just part of part of playing the game feels good when you're on the right side and then obviously sucks, you know, when it happens on the backside. Are there other times when there was maybe a check down opposite what you were looking at that that maybe you could have gone to? And you guys are trying to break down every play of the game and there's a lot of areas where, you know, I want to be better and look forward to be better this week. Protection perspective, did you think that you guys figured some things out during the course of the game? You know, I thought those guys battled, you know, we did some good things and then obviously some areas where we want to be better, but I thought those guys battled. We knew going in that they were a good front, strong front and, you know, be no different this week. Obviously with Bosa, with Mack, some big guys inside. A good secondary, right? That it's very active. Got some length outside with 43 Davis. JC Jackson obviously has had a good career so far and made a lot of big plays and got his hands on a lot of balls. Darren James in the secondary, the guy who's very active. He's coming in on a lot of pressures. He's efficient and disruptive when it comes on those pressures and obviously has the range on the back end. So you look at the defense as a whole and you see a very capable group with talent all over. Ryan, did you know prior to the fourth downfield goal to make it 16-15, did you know on that third down that they were going to kick on fourth? No. So did you think you had two plays to get the first down? Guys, I just want to move on to San Diego. I'm not going to answer any more questions about what happened Sunday. What happened Sunday happened. I'm not happy about it. No one in this building is happy about it. But at the end of the day, it's over. We can learn from it. We can move on. And if you have any questions about San Diego, I mean, sorry, LA, I'm more than happy to answer. As you turn the page towards that game, I mean, it's one game that you had in this offense. Is it encouraging that, you know, you can get better knowing more time you have in the scheme? Yeah, no question. I mean, that's the, I guess the bright spot is like, you know, feel like it's got to be better from here, right? So want to attack this week, come out, you know, have a great week of practice and be ready to go on Sunday. What's communication like? Well, I guess with the on-trade, not only in-game, but maybe like after the first game, as you guys continue to try to get on the same page, what's the film-watching process like? Yeah, we got together on Monday and with the receiving unit and was able to go through the tape and kind of talk them through what I'm seeing and what I'm expecting on certain plays and make sure those things match up and match up consistently so that we can be effective and efficient moving forward. Brian, with your experience in this league, how have you grown in the mental process of exactly what you were saying about moving on and focusing on improving? Yeah, you have to, you know, see reality, but then also you can't dwell on things, whether positive or negative, you know, whether you're coming off a great game or a game that wasn't your best, you have to be able to see things what they were, see things that went well, what didn't go well. How can you be better than, you know, take those things moving forward? There's not a complete transfer from one season to the next, but is there any level of frustration that this team hasn't won in a long? Yeah, I mean we played a win, that's why we put in the hours, the blood, sweat and tears, countless hours and sacrifices that we put in to play this game, you know, so obviously we want to go out and want to win the game. New offense, new coordinator, what did you make of the game plan and how Tim called the game in New Orleans and then as you guys look forward to calling the game this week, just how do you feel in the new offense of the new playcaller? Yeah, you know, I think I'm very confident in Tim and what he's done up until this point and excited to have another crack at it this week. Brian, do you feel like you have the same confidence that you had in 2019 and 2020 when the offense was very successful now? I'm totally confident in myself, in my abilities and the guys around me and I think that's what it comes down to is trusting yourself, trusting the guys around you and then being able to make those plays when they come. Obviously, you know, some room to improve from last week, but excited to attack those things this week and go out, execute the game plan and play well on Sunday. Do you kind of want this game to come fast? To get out there and? Yeah, no question. You know, as soon as I got on the bus, you know, I was texting with Tim and just said, you know, Sunday can't come fast enough. Just want to get back out there, want to play again as soon as possible, but you know, have some work to do in order to be prepared and be ready to go. But yeah, definitely want to do to get out there and have an opportunity. Forefront after Aaron's injury, I know you've talked in the past about preferring grass. What specifically is it about grass that you prefer compared to turf? It's just easier on your body. You know, your joints, your skin, all of it, you know, it's a turf just kind of hard on you. They've had a lot of improvements over the years, but at the end of the day, it's just harder on your body across the board. Time turf was hard on your body? Every time you play on turf, you know, you get in the shower after the game and you're staying all over. Your joints hurt more the next day than they do after you play on grass. So that's kind of is what it is though, right? There's a bunch of games, especially, you know, home games now going to be played on turf. So it's a fast surface, right? There's some benefits for it. You feel fast when you're on it. You move well. It's responsive. But at the same time, yeah, it's a little harder on your body. You got to play this team relatively recently last year. You played most of that game. What from that performance can you take away looking to play them again this upcoming week? Yeah, we battled. You know, it was not a pretty game. I was kind of hobbling on one foot for most of the game. But our guys battled, you know, we kept ourselves in it. Defense kept us in it. And then at the end of the game, we were able to drive down right when we needed to and go get a touchdown, you know? So did some good things, but, you know, hope to be better this week. Thank you. Thank you, Ryan. Good morning, Mike. Hi. The NFL PA this morning kind of reissued their call for all grass across the league. You played on grass and turf in your career. Now the league, your team is switching over to the turf. Is it just a more complicated situation sometimes than just, you know, different stadiums, different locations, sometime required different solutions? Yeah, I think it's all, you know, a case by case basis. Haven't played in all different types of surfaces and stadiums and original artificial turf. And I think that the technology has gotten really good. I like our product. Again, I think it's a case by case issue. And I understand that, you know, we need to do everything that we can to keep our players safe and understand that, you know, sometimes injuries are unavoidable based on, you know, whatever you're doing and playing professional sports. How's the process, Mike, gone from kind of turn the page and getting ready for a good appointment? Well, I think it was good. I think the energy has been good. I hope we come out and practice well. I think that's where it starts, you know, is eliminating mistakes and proving. We've talked about the progress that you have to make in this league in order to be successful early in the season, midway through and certainly late. The teams that continue to improve are the ones that play late in the year. So we're always going to be focusing on improving and obviously, you know, focusing on eliminating mistakes that give us a chance to win. As you turn that page towards this next game, what is it that makes you feel that that Ryan Tannehill could bounce back to what you've seen from before? Well, Ryan's played, you know, good football for us. When we've been able to protect and I'm confident that they'll hit the ones that we're supposed to hit and eliminate the mistakes and not feeling like we have to force the ball. We'll have to protect them and we'll have to stay efficient. You know, we'll have to. There's a big key for us is making sure that, you know, we're not getting those disadvantaged down in distances first in 15, first in 20, you know, even looking at our game last year. When we were able to stay on track, we're able to move the ball instead of third and long against a very good defense, good scheme, good players. But the times where we start off first in 20, first play of the game, you know, self-inflicted wounds. Some of those out passes and some of the timing. Yeah, we're going to focus on here the Chargers and, you know, we had an opportunity Monday to talk about it. But really, you know, we all know that, you know, we'll have to get better quarterback play from Ryan and going, you know, moving forward. He knows that. That's not a secret to anybody. Backside on the past play. Are there situations where the play call just makes it so that it's not possible to get there? Can you give me a specific example? I just don't want to speak in generalities and then get quoted. It looked like they busted coverage on Perks on the other side of the field. I've referenced that, right? That's, you know, when you go a yes or no and you go to the back side, you know, you go to the receiver, the single receiver. You're picking a side and don't hate the decision. You know, it's single coverage, I think. And so we just under throw it. Don't give them a chance. I didn't like the execution. But yeah, there is going to be a side that you're going to start to and progress. And certainly, you know, trailing came out of the bunch free, you know, and so that's, you know, wish we just started over there looking at hindsight. But there's a lot of single receiver X's in this league and hops called a lot of passes over there. So is a lot of other X's in this league in the backside of three by one. So don't hate the decision. You know, the execution's got to be better. It depends on the set and the play as to whether something breaks free in the backside. He's made up, you know, most of these times and then that specific example, right? You know, he's made up his mind that he's going over there. And, you know, if there's a concept that we're working to the bunch side, then we would certainly have expected him to see it. But that happens. I understand that. How much do you have to alert your DB's that Herbert is the type of quarterback who can make throws and will make throws that other quarterbacks might not attend? Well, the arm talent, play strength, you know, going in either direction, being able to move the ball downfield. But he just, you know, he also knows where his outlets are. Everett and Neckler do a great job. You know, he's decisive with the football that doesn't hold on to it real long, you know, where those check downs are. So, you know, we just have to make sure that we're tight, you know, and that we're forcing him to kind of progress through. What do you think about having some success in the secondary? Well, I mean, I think that we were able to get lined up in the times that, you know, they were moving fast. We forced them, you know, to throw the ball underneath. I thought we tackled okay. We didn't give up a ton of big plays. You know, there were a few, but, you know, it'll be a different game. You know, we'll have to be ready for some tempo. It was a successful form last week, scoring on five of the six drives that they went fast and, you know, got into the red zone and they got on the ball. So, I'm sure they'll have a plan for us and, you know, maybe some of those plays are similar. Some of them will probably be different. You guys played this team relatively recently, but obviously they changed off as a coordinator. It's killing more now in charge. What kind of a challenge does he present? Well, they ran a lot of snaps. You know, they ran 76 snaps and, you know, there's always run past conflict. If he, you know, likes his numbers outside, they'll throw it out there and the relief passes. The tempo, certainly being able to mix personnel and getting everybody involved. You know, he was able to spread the ball around, had some scheme plays for some of the guys, take advantage of some of their skill sets. You know, and there's also some things that showed up again that Herbert must have liked or, you know, somebody there liked Coach Staley Light because some of the things that they ran against us last year showed up in the first week. Austin, after I mentioned, you know, a new dedication to the rushing attack and to see what they're able to do with he and Josh Kelly, what do you make of, you know, how things have shifted just in that one game that you got to see? Well, they ran hard. They blocked well. And if you're going to play them in split safety defense, you better get off a block and make a tackle and fill and fit. And, you know, that's the battle you wage. They ran the ball nine of the first 14 plays and ran it three times inside the ten yard line. So I told the team today, so, you know, certainly they want to stay balanced and run the football. We ran it 40 times. My great question is that Derek Henry's usage. Is there kind of a plan before the game about how much you want to make sure Derek plays or how many times he wants to get it? Or is it adjustments throughout the game that end up with how much Derek plays and how much he gets it? I think that's probably goes by the game and in a feel for what we think, you know, and how things are going. You know, I think we want to make sure that, you know, guys are getting the ball, you know, Derek at the top of that list and hop and trailing and chig and taje. So, you know, trying to create opportunities for them and then see how it goes. Just like the screen to Derek is something that we've always had and, you know, that's been a good play for us. So making sure that we, you know, get some of those things called that we've had success with, you know, in the past. How willing do you have to be to give up routes or slow down people who run routes in order to chip Bosa and Mack? You know, I mean, they just, you know, they chipped us, they started chipping us and, you know, I still think that there's some ways that you can get those guys involved. I mean, they won't be at the normal depth, but, you know, it's going to take a group effort. You know, when you play some of these premier players in the league to try to make sure that we're taking care of the quarterback, we're helping. So this is having a plan for where those guys go and, you know, being able to help the quarterback and, you know, somewhere in the route after they do it. Making sure their first job is to slow them down, put them where, you know, the offensive line wants them to be, whether that's inside or making them run around, but then having an opportunity to get into the route. So certainly not going to be at 15 yards when they're into the route after they chip, but they'll be somewhere out there. How important are fundamentals and footwork towards making sure that you get better quarterback play this week? Fundamentals and footwork? I think everything we do is going to be about fundamentals, everything we want to focus on. But it's also about, you know, making great decisions, letting the ball go, you know, having a few details like we talk about this all the time. We've got to take a, you know, cut a thin slice of what we're supposed to do, have a few details and then go play when the ball snapped and not be indecisive or, you know, waiver. Whatever we did last week won't have any bearing. Whatever the Chargers did won't have any bearing on the game. And that's the facts and things that you did last week, whether that's good and bad, you know, we have to understand that it's a whole new week. It's a new team. It's a new opportunity. Some of these skill positions, the wide receiver type of position, big guys, big bodies. Yeah, athletic. Well, I mean, they have a nice little package for him. Everett, you know, threw him a bubble for 10 or 12 yards. He was involved in, you know, chipping some and then he's involved in free release and willing blocker. Not the biggest player, but respect his willingness to block, which he did help them run for a lot of yards last week. So certainly respect that. And then, you know, obviously Parham, just with the size, matchup issues, it was clear that they'd be looking for him in the red zone. What's the protocol before it goes back into it? Does it alter the baseline requirements or the process that he has to go through and required it to pass in order to return? Does it change? I think the protocol is what it is. Is it, you know, symptom score and when that's zero, then you start the return to play and the conditioning and the weightlifting element and then eventually practice and then an independent doctor. So I don't think it changes to the best of my knowledge. And so, you know, we'll keep monitoring him as he works his way through the protocol. Well, I would say is that he's still in the protocol. So that would tell you, you know, it's not ready to get back out there and the options. I mean, got Elijah, Mike Brown, all the guys that played for us in the preseason, Matt Jackson and shy Carter on the practice squad. That would be, that would be the options. How do you feel about Elijah in terms of back end versus equally comfortable with him either spot? Yeah, yeah, I mean, I think that, you know, his willingness to tackle. And again, what was able to open up and show some range last week back there and they tried him. You know, him and in around the line of scrimmage has always been something that's been a skill of his, you know, strengthen his to be able to, you know, whether they're throwing a bubble or he's fit in on the run. They made a really nice plan to toss crack last week. And so, you know, as he moves back, there's just a little bit more space. And that's why those those reps and training camp, you know, preseason were critical for him to be able to see those things just from a little deeper. But, you know, I think that the more he plays, the better obese and instinctive football player, it's just been, you know, keeping him out there. Do you expect him to be good to go? Christian will probably be somewhat limited today, but hopeful to return here shortly. So trailing has a personal matter just to give you a heads up before you guys start, you know, looking at practice, but expect him back tomorrow. So just giving you guys a heads up. Thank you guys.
