 Traylon Burks, the snaps he got last night, are you seeing him get targeted in games the way you'd like to? Well, the thing that I've always tried to say with regards to receivers is they can't control when they get the ball. OK, all they can control is that they get open and that we can review the film and say, hey, this is where we would like the ball to go. I don't want to tell quarterbacks, hey, throw it to this guy. That's not the direction that we really want to head. But was really encouraged by some of the things that he did, especially without the football, trying to the block. There were times that he was open, whether that be for a catch and run. And then there are some other times where we would like to see a better route. Just continue to progress and work on the conditioning in the game and all the things that are required of the receivers. The game plan perspective, can you kind of figure out ways to get manufactured touches for? Well, we can do that with everybody, just not in the second pre-season game. Overall, though, improved consistency from when we last talked about it in Baltimore from the week of practice into the game? Yeah, I mean, I think that there was certainly improvements on things that we had talked about and then there were going to be adjustments or coaching points that we'll make with them and him and everybody else when they come in tomorrow. Landry and Bud are so good about staying on the field. How can Rashad find some snaps once you guys are going for real? Just continuing to help us and trying to find a role, working in some special team situations so that we can find guys to get to the game. But the ball production that he had and being able to match the hand and keep showing up is really what's been good to see. How do people use for you guys last night? Mike, were you seeing some of the things you saw on drills? Yeah, I think so. I mean, we work it a lot. And I think the first game against Baltimore, it was sometimes make the tackle or just try to focus on maybe covering the guy or whatever. And I think it was good to see that we didn't really do our best in that game of having attempts. But I think, listen, you know, talking with Shane and the defensive staff, I think there were 34 attempts at that, whether they're hammering at the ball or whatever they're doing. And some of that is showing up on the film. And so then the more attempts you get in theory, the more times that the ball comes out. Ryan Stonehouse at getting the ball to check up on the two short ones, one of them bounced backwards, the other one trickled in. How much of a skill is that to get it to stop and sit up? And where is he on that? Well, I think it is a skill. We had three total touchbacks yesterday on the punt. That's not good enough. We had the penalty, first touching. So I think Stoney's it's something that he'll continue to always work on. And I think it is a skill to go down there and make it hit and check you see throughout the league. Some of those footballs that land on the five yard line and take a violent bounce into the end zone or the other ones that sit there and die soft. The newcomers at safety, Colbert and Lonnie Johnson, they got a lot of snaps last night. How did they look? And do you almost have to grade those guys on a curve because they get here halfway through camp? Well, I mean, it was good to see him get out there. There was some, I thought that group did a nice job of making some plays on the football, tackling, playing the football, lowering the target. Had some opportunities where you could be close to the defenseless receiver area and then the header neck. And by playing the football, I think that that helps them with that penalty as far as we try to teach them to find the ball and try to strike below the football. And that should protect you as well. As far as grading on a curve, I think we'll just kind of see where they're at and look at how they're playing and the fundamentals that they're playing with and maybe trying to keep the call somewhat manageable for them. Is Lonnie with the safeties when the DBs break up now? I mean, I think in the game, he particularly played safety. I think we'll see how much he can handle and where he can help us the best. Can you look at the league a little closer? What do you want to see? Where did you see him put in the air? What does the mayor say about you still need to focus? Yeah, so the thing that obviously that stood out was we were able to rip a timing route in there to Nick early in the game, which is something that he didn't do last week. And we worked on it in practice, and it was cool to see him be able to hit that. And maybe he can kind of see how the whole process works, the play pass, the timing of it, and 21-yard gain. Other things that we still have to and we still want to be able to work on, the operation at the line of scrimmage, the command. I just think it's tough to talk to him about running out of the back of the pocket. And there's times where he's going to take off and make plays and protection breaks down and he's going to shrug guys off and he did that. Found Dez, found his son. I don't want to see anybody get hurt, especially our quarterbacks. And you run out of the back of the pocket in this league, these guys are coming. So we'll continue to coach him in his pocket presence and being able to keep his eyes downfield. It's such a fine line. But just look at the beginning part of the game and the one timing pass that we needed to complete and wanted to see him do, he did it. So we at least made some progress there. And then we'll continue to work on some of the other stuff. Do you start to get more clarity on that? And what do those guys have to do to kind of separate themselves towards that starting spot? Well, anybody that's trying to earn a role in the offensive linemen, it would be to block your guy to stay inside out in protection, to handle movement, finish. Those are all critical things for an offensive lineman. Nick got a couple of series, a right tackle, and then went over to left. So not ready to make anything permanent right now. But we'll see where we're at this week against Arizona. How'd you feel about going against Nassib and obviously at the full start? But how did you feel about him both past blocking and run blocking yesterday? Who's that? Dylan? I mean, I thought he settled down. And there were some good blocks. I thought there was a couple that he missed. Better about what he's been doing in past protection. How much of an advancement has he made in past pro? Well, I mean, it's really a lot of the top of the pocket making sure that you stay inside out. These guys have a decision to make at the top of the pocket. Are they coming back under or do they keep running the edge? And I think that's something that we focused about with Dylan is just making sure that he doesn't lose at that point in time. I think he's done a better job. I think it's been better. And guys is trying to spin back inside on him. And I think he's done a good job. That's going to say, are you seeing progress there? Is the good trajectory as far as you're concerned in that department? Well, I mean, we're always trying to improve. So we'll see where it is this week. Has Brewer been consistently good for you since the start of camp? Yeah, I mean, I think he's in a good place. And practicing against the Tampa Bay is a good scheme and good players. And so that's what it's going to be like every week. But I think Bruce tried to look at the things that we asked him to focus on coming out of last year and the opportunities that he got with us. And he's done that. And practicing against Jeff and Tierra and our guys up front have helped too. How did you feel about Logan's decision-making last night? I thought he made good decisions. There were some times where he got us in the right play. And they blitzed zeroed us. And we threw it out to Roby and got a first down. It looked like a football play. Progressed through and hit Roby again on a play pass. I think that this gets hit. I mean, the quarterbacks get hit. That's not a very good job of protecting the guy with the ball. We're trying to take a shot to trailing. And he gets hit. So I think the decisions were OK. I think the execution by both quarterbacks has to be better. Did he carry over what he did from the week before? And does he continue to climb now? Yeah, he got a sack, did a couple good things, and then penalty 30 yards bounced out to his side. So the consistency there is really good to see as far as the pass rush and his presence there. His rush turned into a sack for Deshaun. But then just kind of overall understanding of kind of where the ball is and not letting it get outside of you. He came here wanting to be more than a special teams player. And you challenged him to find a role within the defense. How do you feel he's done as far as finding that role? I think he's playing hard. He's productive. And it was a great rush, great effort to reach out there and get the football and draw a penalty and get a strip sack. And so Ola keeps working each and every day. And the better that he does, the more opportunities he's going to create. Malik said yesterday that your message to him had been, have we just have fun, let it rip, play loose. Have you seen that kind of start to go off in his mind a little bit? And why do you think that's so important for him and his play style? Well, I mean, I think it's important for everybody. I think we all have a job to do. And we try to coach to perfection and understand that it's never going to be perfect. We just want it to be precise. We try to give these guys a lot during the week. And the game is their opportunity to go play. And if we can get these guys to have a few details on each and every play, maybe the quarterback has got a few more. That's just kind of the job description. But we don't want them to have a whole lot of things running through their mind. Just a few details on each call and knowing that you have to take care of at least those few things, and then go play. Because that's what you have to do to play this game. Mike Desvid's Patrick was one of your off-season award winners, I guess, through two pre-season games. Have you seen him come along? And how would you maybe assess what he's been able to do? I think that Des does a nice job in the past game. I think we still want to make sure that he's proficient in being able to go in there and block when we need him to block. And he's been much more willing. I think that the technique has to improve. I think that there are some times, like a lot of receivers, they're just being decisive with their routes. It's a good challenge with Tampa and their disguises and what they're doing. So Des continues to compete. And he had a nice gunner rep. He had a great release. It just, the finish probably isn't something that we want. But he beat a double team, went down there. We just need to see him make sure that he cuts the field off. And we'll make all these adjustments when these guys come in. But that's just off the top of my head that maybe last year, I don't know if he would have been able to beat a double team and get down there as quickly as he did. Now we just have to take it one step further and finish. And receivers that can have roles on special teams really start to help themselves. What are his performance on special teams? Well, that's a bright spot. We don't want to catch him in the end zone. But I love what he did is being decisive, getting upfield, making guys miss. We talked about the efforts. We had guys going to the second level. We played penalty free. And so Kyle just judged the ball well and just want to make sure that we continue and hopefully make that a strength. Speaking of Kyle, the third down miss with Malik, was that poor quarterback execution or was Kyle running his route too long? We just weren't able to complete it. With the snap counts, Farley played more than anyone else. And McQuarrie was kind of, I think it was like 19 snaps. Is there a reason why you're getting so many snaps for Farley and less for McQuarrie? We try to do what we think is best for the player and best for the team to try to get everybody ready to go for the regular season. How would you evaluate how the defensive line, especially those guys that were not starters, some of the Sean Hand and Kevin Strong, some of those guys, how they did last night? Well, Sean wasn't in there very long, Terry, so not much of an evaluation. I think that that's a competitive group and they keep pushing each other and they're all just trying to find roles on this football team. But with Farley getting so many reps, what is it, is just a matter of getting him as many opportunities as possible, trying to see as much as you can from him? So I'm curious because as a rookie, I would think McQuarrie would need a lot of reps also, but there's varying. That's why you write and I coached. I'm just giving you my opinion and I'm asking yours. When I ask for your opinion, you can give it to me, Teron. What kind of goes into the thought process on who maybe doesn't need work with one preseason? Well, we try to identify the practices. These were two pretty good practices. And you just look around and see what guys did. And to Teron's question, we really want to start seeing guys string some days together. And I think that's where you start to build consistency. You start to build, most importantly, confidence. So I thought Caleb's second day was much better than his first day. And so hopefully that we could string a third day together, which would have been the game. And I think that that happened. We talk about Caleb's emotions. I mean, he's just so excited to be out there. He hasn't really played a whole lot of football. I noticed early on against the practices in Tampa, he was pretty emotionally spent, which then causing to be physically spent. It was just the so just trying to get him to focus on his emotions and keeping them pretty neutral so that he can have as much energy for each and every play and to withstand the length of the game, the heat, the conditions that they have. I mean, you've got to run. And so that's just another opportunity for him to get some conditioning. And it was good to see him have a couple of good back to back days. Is that something you find yourself having to consider when you're evaluating probably the fact that he hasn't played Yeah, I mean, that's always something. And just whether he started with us and then had to set back, had to injury. And the more that you can see out there, whether it's formationally, situationally, one call may mean something. You may have some details in a call on first and 10. And then it could be third and five. And the details could change. And now we're talking about the stick situation. And we want to be pressed. Are we going to get picked? Or just, and those are the things that I think he's continuing to work on. Farley, what is leading to some of these moments where his guy gets behind him? It's happened out here on the practice field with your own guys with Gracie a couple times. It happened in the first practice. It happened with Scotty Miller last night where the receivers gotten behind Farley. I mean, you're trying to make sure that you're challenging and that you're staying square. And I mean, you can play 20 yards off and everybody else will say, well, why are they catching passes in front of them? So it's a fine line. And we just have to make sure that when these guys get past that break point of whether they're gonna start making cuts inside or outside, that we're starting to transition vertically. And I think that may be a situation where Caleb's trying to stay square and read the demeanor of the receiver and he just has to read it sooner and get into what would be his stride to match that vertical route.
