 Mike, with your defensive background and Dean piece, plus the way your defense has been playing the last couple weeks, how much does that maybe help when you're facing the challenge of trying to defend the Ravens and what they've done offensively? You think Dean and I could stop him, huh? Well, that's sort of the experience in the side of the game, right? No, I meant just it's just such a, I mean, it's hard. It's discipline and ability, a lot of ability, a ton of ability. It's a great scheme, but with any scheme, it's never as important as the players executing the scheme. We're going to try to do what we do every week and just give our guys as much preparation as we possibly can. Show them, teach them, explain to them, work things on the field, work drills, try to find the guys that they have as go-to players. What their favorite plays are, and then obviously there's going to be new plays that show up in the game. And hopefully the things that we're doing are sound enough to allow our players to go and execute. Can you talk about how difficult it is to simulate Jackson's ball fakes and his speed in the open field? How much can Marcus's RPO background help you prepare on the scout team? Well, we'll need good speed today. That's something that's critical, which may, they're doing a great job. But 128 to 31 in the first quarter, my guess is that that speed looks a lot different during the game than what it did in practice. And so hopefully we can get that speed and get that look as close to what we are going to see in the game. It won't be the same, but it's going to be, I think, pretty good with what Marcus can do and what hopefully the look that we can give our guys. When you face a team like this with kind of a unique offense, do you find yourself changing things more than you usually would, or are you just trying to stay as close as you can to every week? We do things that we will probably do. There'll be new things. There'll be things that we'll have. There's going to be a lot of game plan, game adjustments that is going to take place. Hey, this is something that's a little new, or hey, this isn't working, and we'll have to adjust and make sure that we're already, as coaches and players, to adjust as things come up in the game. Skill set being as unique as it is to see as a draft prospect how difficult a scout he was, because not a lot of offenses necessarily fit what he was going to do. Well, hopefully, when we have good players here, talented players, we ask them to do things that take advantage of their talent. I think that that's something that's critical as a coach, that you find out what the guys that you have do well, and then you try to ask them to do it well. And then things that they don't do well, you try to improve. Again, they had a vision for the player, and that's what John and I try to do when we evaluate players coming out in the draft, free agency during the season. What's the vision for this player? What does this player do well? What does this player need to, what are the areas of focus? So I'm sure they had a vision of what Lamar was going to be for him. For as much as they blitz, is it more complicated, and what kind of work ahead for you to run back to? That's a great scheme, great scheme. Great players, you know, aggressive play caller. You know, Winx aggressive, that's who he wants to be. And again, those schemes, they should never get overemphasized more than the players. You know, they have very good players. Secondary is very good. Mentioned Humphreys and his ability to not only play tight coverage, but also if a guy catches a ball on him, you better protect it because he's looking to knock it out and he's very well taught and he executes that technique very well. Judon is developed into a very, very good player. The inside guys are next to him. Possible to move, Pierce and Williams, you know, Wormley has got great length. They're fast inside. They're under, you know, they're not the biggest linebackers, but they're fast, they're run, they're productive. So all that with a good scheme is it makes it hard to handle. How have your backs been at pickup and how much is on them in a situation like this? Well, with pressure, you know, when they're, you know, they'll be in, they'll be in pickup this week. It'll be, you know, important that we identify who we have to block and that we do everything that we can do with our technique to get them blocked. Every week, I know it's your plan to do every week, but how important is it to sustain drives to keep them, their offense off the field this week? You know, they're leading the league in time of possession. It's something that they have long drives and they keep the ball and defensively, they're not out there very long. So, you know, either we got to keep it a long time or we got to score, you know. With your starting guards, Saffold and Nate Davis, how have you seen them change and improve as the season has progressed to you? I think the whole unit's improved. I think that as we continue to build confidence in what we're doing and have success, I think everybody's improved. I think that's the message to the team. It's been the teams that have continued to improve throughout the season are still here playing and preparing for games and maybe the ones that didn't aren't playing. So, I would say that they've improved. I think that the rest of the offense and hopefully most of the players in the team have improved. Was there a matter of familiarity, do you think, after so many years with them? You'd have to be a great question for Roger. It seems like with all the talk about that Raven's offense, the offensive line is lost within it, but they really do a good job of reestablishing the line of scrimmage. What are your thoughts? There's not much penetrate, you know what I mean? They cover guys up, they make sure that they do a great job of making sure that there's no penetration. When you read it out of the pistol, it takes a second longer or half a second longer, whatever it is, and they're not giving up any penetration. There's a guy that they're reading and that's the quarterback's job, but there's not a whole lot of penetration on the backside. People are trying to create a new line of scrimmage or jam someone underneath. They've done a great job of picking that up. Stanley's turned into a phenomenal left tackle, great mover, very good length. Rarely get around him. Obviously, Orlando's a massive mover. Much was made out of him coming out, but he's turned into a people mover on the right side. He just covers you up and he'll knock guys 10 yards off the ball. How do you guys weren't necessarily drafted for this system? How impressive that they've transitioned into moving the way that they move and what they're doing. Again, I don't know what system they were drafted for. Offensive linemen. There's two types of run. There's zone scheme and gap scheme. And I hope that whatever system guys come out, they're going to zone right, they're going to zone left, or they're going to double team somebody. They're good players. They would be good players in any scheme. And that's the challenge. I think that it's not all zone read. And so there was an example showing the team that there was a player that maybe had gotten red over there by Orlando Brown a few plays in a row. And he was kind of just standing there waiting to be red another time. And he rolls off the ball and knocks him about 10 yards off the ball. So I think that that's something that we have to be mindful for, is that it's not always a zone read. I mean, it is. That's a large part of what they do. And they're successful and they're very good at it. But not just standing there waiting to get red and then get knocked 10 yards off the ball. Go ahead, Kale. You never ask questions. I mean, I tried to let everybody else get them. But I will ask you much. The tight ends and how they use them even more so. Yeah. Leading targets, leading catches. They're talented. They're athletic. You know, I would imagine, you know, Ozzie had been there, have his stamp on that, loving that position. They've drafted them every year. That's something that's important to that organization, guys that can block, guys that can get open, guys that catch the ball, that have good play strength. Andrews is certainly a leading target. He's got great ability to extend and a very good catch radius. What Hearst is a player that really can play at the line of scrimmage, he can flex out. He outran DB and Buffalo. So they've got three very good weapons there, and they play them a lot together, all in the field at the same time. With all the 12 and 13 personnel that they run, have most teams tried to defend them in base or they have to go sub-package because of Lamar's speed? I think it's based on who you have each and every week. Some teams have played sub based on a lot of things that go into that down a distance. And you'll have to be ready for, if somebody goes down, maybe nickel's not available, and you'll have to play base versus 11 or nickel versus 12. What does he meant to this team, to your coaching staff, and to the players that he coaches? Dean cares obviously about his players, deeply cares about their success, puts a lot of time in. He's very good at his job. He's seen and done a lot in this league. Very experienced. So he has meant a lot to us in this organization. Now I'm excited to watch him help prepare our team and ultimately coach and call a game on Saturday night. Did the league clear that final hurdle, or is he still...? Clief has cleared. Cleared concussion protocol. And looking at the Ravens games this year, that Buffalo did a decent job, maybe kind of slowing Baltimore anyway. In looking at that game, did they do anything particularly well in slowing those guys down? I thought they played good defense. I thought they swarmed to the ball. I thought they were physical. They played with good technique. There's a lot of things alike. And they just gave up a big one, unfortunately, down the field, catch-and-run situation. And they played on a short field sometimes, but there's a lot to like when Buffalo plays defense. They're well-coached. They have great players. Is there something that could be said about the importance of kind of cutting the field in half with Lamar and just like making him read just...? I mean, I think that in the past game, are you talking about in a run game? When he has the ball in his hand, I would say that everybody is at the point of attack. And that was a message to the team that when he has the ball in his hand, everyone is at the point of attack. It could start over here. They could read this guy. He could go back inside. He could follow the running back. He could come back over here. There's a design that apply, and then he just is like, I'm gonna go make a play. So I think that we're all at the point of attack. The 11 guys that are out there when he has the ball. It was 20 years ago today. Were you watching it when it happened? What was 20 years ago? What year was it? 1999 season 2000. January 8, 2000. So I would have just finished my fourth year, third year, maybe. I don't think we made the playoffs in Pittsburgh. I mean, I remember it. I mean, I remember, I don't remember that I was watching the game. So I mean, I know that that was huge play in this organization. So well-executed play. You don't go, that's just another one of those situations where you practice it every Saturday and you make it go a whole career without ever using it. And then now all of a sudden you get the opportunity to use it and you never know in one of those situations that you practice in training camp and on Saturday walk-throughs is gonna come and you're gonna need it. How's optimism on jail? I'm sorry? How's your optimism on jail? We'll see what he looks like at practice.
