 So Craig with each overtime game-winning kick Randy just seems to be getting more and more comfortable. Yeah, he does You know obviously it's it's fun watching him going out there and competing and making those types of kicks You know we went and talked to him before that drive and just asked him Hey, where do you want the ball at and the greatest thing about him? He's like I don't care where the ball is whether it's in the right hash left hash middle of the field I'm gonna make the kick and obviously you feel pretty comfortable when your kicker tells you that so Really happy for him. We had a really good operation. We blocked well and Randy end up doing his job Which was which was great for us after the last two and a half years of issues at kicker in the changing faces Do you get a chance to breathe a little bit and relax or? You just wait to see what the next kick does I would say no because we don't really relax too much But we're obviously very confident in Randy's ability to make these types of kicks Whether it's a game-winner or whether it's a 44 yarder in the first quarter a 50 yarder We feel really confident in him going out there and doing his job. So You know, we're always holding our breath because we always want to do really well obviously so You know that part always just comes with it And you know, we'll continue to get confidence and Randy when he makes all of his kicks When you play the different stadium or play in a different conditions, what's pregame like or knowing what you're up against? Yeah, we like those guys both Obviously Brett and Randy to get out there early to see what it's like whether we're in a dome Whether they're gonna open up the windows whether we're in California here You know gonna go play the Rams It's always different because the guys got to go out and get a feel of what it's like whether it's the wind the rain Where the Sun's coming at all that different types of things where they can feel comfortable at the end of the game knowing where Okay, I got a right to left win I want to be on this hash or I have a left to right when I want to be in the middle of the field So they'll get that pregame. They'll talk to me. They'll talk to obviously James and Matt and let us know what they're thinking and then hopefully we can go out there and get the job done Hill you're back there to return kids last week What is keeping you guys from just being able to have a consistent guy back there that could settle in and be your return Yeah, I mean obviously we got to continue to understand you know What we want back there as a returner and we're gonna try guys out as much as we can and See who that guy is gonna be but you know We haven't had many chances the past three games for games because people have been kicking touch backs But we're getting a plenty of practice in it and whoever steps up whether it's Don Troh whether it's Deontay Freeman whether it's Marcus Johnson again Jeremy McNichols We'll continue to roll out the guy who we best feel can help us win games Something in particular that you're looking for for that guy to be that guy Yeah, I mean we're looking for a guy who has no fear We talk about guy who's gonna run through the smoke if it gets a little dirty in there They got to run through it. We got to break arm tackles. We can't stutter our feet in the hole We're looking a guy who's just gonna go out there and run as fast as he can and make one cut and There's guys in there. We're gonna ask him to run through that smoke and see if they can break an arm tackle Yeah, oh, yeah, he's you know those guys and all of our players they'll come in and meet with myself Matt Edwards Just trying to get themselves better, you know, we really appreciate the professionalism that these guys have of wanting to get better And that's by studying film meeting with us extra Don trail Marcus Johnson. I mean, I don't know if you guys Saw this at the end of the game Marcus Johnson really didn't practice on our kickoff coverage and we asked him to go in there because we had a few injuries Marcus Johnson goes down there and makes a tackle on on our kickoff coverage When he hadn't practiced it all week So those are the guys that you really enjoy coaching because they're gonna take their job serious And if you ask them to do something that, you know, maybe they hadn't practiced in a while Doesn't matter to them because they're gonna go and get the job done Bullock a little different you mentioned that he said doesn't matter where it is I'll put it in in your experience. Most kickers have a preference. Get me left. Get me right. Get me middle something Yeah, some of them do some of them like certain hashes Distance-wise Some of them, you know want the ball in the middle of the field it all just depends on the kicker And that could of course change during the course of the game Whether it's the wind or anything like that, you know at the beginning of the game They might tell us like hey I really wanted the right hash at the end of the half or end of the game But if the wind ends up moving they'll come and talk to us and say hey listen I know I told you something earlier, but with the way the winds going I'd like to have it on this hash and that's where James also comes in too talking to those guys communicating with one another What they're feeling What's best for them and then they communicate that to me and then you know as Randy did you know making a great kick at The end of the game asking that question Do you just leave a kicker to himself as that situation approaches and and let him be in his own head there? Or do you talk to him a bunch leading up to the situation like yeah, you know It's a little bit different because sometimes I will talk to them Sometimes I'll have James talk to him I really like them to really focus on their mental part though beforehand So I don't really go and bog them down with a lot of questions I don't sit over there and really focus in and sit there and watch them to make sure everything's okay they know what they have to do and I just like them to go off on the side get them mentally prepared as far as those guys Understand how to kick and how to punt I just sit back there and watch and then when it comes down to it They just give me the nod like I'm ready and I said all right. It's good. We're ready to go as long as I get the nod I'm feeling confident and comfortable with those guys To go out there and do their job Yeah, I mean you see more kickers and punters doing a lot of different things now and Johnny has done a Great job in his career with a bunch of different types of punts That watermelon punt, you know, luckily enough Brett can hit that to where we can practice on that So, you know, we just got to get those guys comfortable of catching something like that Logan cooks done it with Jacksonville a little bit So we've practiced for him. It's just those guys just understanding how it's punt it differently I mean the one that he ended up doing this year. He looked like he was gonna punt it 20 yards OB to his left And that ball went in the middle of the field. So we just got to understand certain situations He's gonna kick those banana type or watermelon type kicks And we just got to be able to have confidence of getting underneath the ball and catching it Well, usually when you face the Rams or even Joe D. Camillus when he was with Jacksonville or Chicago or Denver You really got to hone in on some of the exotics that they end up doing they haven't done it this year, but You know Johnny Hecker's thrown 19 passes in his career and he's been really good at it I mean, obviously he's a former quarterback. He's got a great arm You know those are ones things that we're gonna really focus in on some of their exotics their fakes Formational stuff that Joe D. And Johnny has been a part of for for years But you know, they've always been really good in the return game. I know that doesn't show right now with them But you know, they can always go back there and get a big return So we got to do an excellent job in our coverage units and then obviously their specialists have done a great job this year So we're gonna have our hands full. We're gonna hopefully go out there and compete and do our best
