 All right, let's roll. Yeah, obviously, just kind of this is a weird question, but with Michael Thomas not being available and knowing that now, does that ease things in some ways? Does that kind of change anything in terms of? There's nothing easy in this league, Michael. There's nothing easy. It's a really good football team. They've won it three in a row. They've been the standard in this division for the last four years. They got, to me, one of the more successful coaches in football in the last 20 years of Sean Payton. They've done it a bunch of different ways. And that's, to me, the sign of a great football coach. They've evolved the last couple of years and made a commitment to the run game. And they've won the division. They've won it throwing the football. They've run it running the football. They've run it with defense. They've run it with offense. They've run it with special teams. They continue to win. And we've got to have a challenge going down there. So they're going to line up. They've got good players, good scheme, good coaches. And we're going to have to stop tomorrow. We're going to have to, you know, essentially stop Ingram in the run game. They've got a lot of guys that can make plays on the perimeter, and they're creative. So it's going to be a challenge whether Michael Thomas was playing or not. They've got good players. You had worked with Trevor. You mentioned it on Monday. You were working with him last year. What was it that stood out about him when you were working with him that time? Very smart. And it's not for anything to do with where he went to college either. So Trevor's very sharp. He understands how to play quarterback. He's going to make the right read. And I can see why they're like him. Same reason I like Trevor. I know we were talking the other day about how, essentially, losing the line is terrible. And that was kind of the whole key to Sunday's game. I mean, how do you kind of move forward? What are you kind of telling these guys up front about, hey, this is a crux of what we need to be doing? Well, it's just the honest of what happened in one game. It hasn't been. It's still not cash drop. We've got 10 other opportunities and nothing more important. There's one opportunity ahead of us on Sunday. So we played pretty well on the line scrimmage. Clearly, we didn't on Sunday. And you credit them. So we're at three or four. We deserve to be three and four. But we got a lot of opportunities left ahead of us. And as I told you earlier in the season, the picture's going to change, too. It's an hour into November. You're right in the middle of the pack. And the good teams are going to continue to improve and find ways to win. So you're playing more meaningful games in December. That's never changed in the national football league. This is true in the 70s. It's true today. So that's what we've got to do. I know we were talking to you saying how this offense is better when you have spread the ball out and you get it to a ton of people. Can you kind of speak to kind of this offensive, I guess, just mindset of when you are able to hit maybe like seven or eight guys in the past game, how it can be beneficial for you guys? Well, it just makes you have to account for everybody. And the other thing, it's really just practical. We've got a lot of guys that can move in football. So if you can find ways, sometimes the cover's going to dictate it. And you can try to force things in sometimes. Come hell or high water. There's certain things you can do if you just want to force targets to people. Certainly, but the defense also, as I say, they can take somebody away. They want to double them in the way they want to roll the coverage. And you've got to have other answers. So we've got a lot of guys that can move football. And we're way more efficient as an offense when we can do that and more people are involved. Charles, you mentioned Trevor, have you had to look at film of what they look like with Taysum Hill, the quarterback, including against the Falcons last month? Sure. Taysum Hill is a really effective player. They can use him in multiple ways. He hasn't played in a month, so he should be pretty fresh coming back. They want to put him in the quarterback run packages. A physical runner. I know he's been out, but he's a physical football player. And they can certainly use him in the quarterback run. They can use him in the drop-back game. He's a terrific all-around football player. And another guy you've got to account for if he's in there. And then if Trevor's in there, he's going to run that offense really well. And we'll see what their game plan is. But I know this. I know Trevor will be smart. He'll make the right decision for him. What type of problems do the Saints' defense present for you as a player? Well, every week there's challenges. That's a national football league. So they're extremely, extremely fast physical defense. These guys bring it. Their D-line is, to me, their rush lanes. The way they can move and get vertical as good as anybody. I think they've got a terrific D-line coach. And Ryan Nielsen, those guys freaking play hard. They're all long. They're physical. They roll them all in there. Schematically, you go back and Dennis now has done a good job with them. He brings really good pressure packages. Added Chris Rashard in the back end. You can see his influence on the back end. They're well-coached. And they got a lot of guys. Tomorrow, Davis, to me, is a premier inside-line backer. And he's as good as they get. The way he diagnoses how physical he plays. So he can be a problem. So we've got a good challenge ahead of us. Guys like Sean Payton who've done it for a while. Are there any commonalities in the way that you've noticed in the way that they approach things and have allowed them to stick in this job for them? Well, there's a lot of ways people have been successful. A lot of industries. I mean, to me, that's what makes life unique and interesting. And when you're studying different industries, and you look at whether it's you're looking at Sean Payton, you're looking at Mike Tomlin, Bill Belichick, Andy Reid, just to name a few, and not to slight anybody else. But those are guys, obviously, and this job and this profession in the last 10 years have done it at a high level on anybody. And I don't know all those guys really well, personally, just watching them from afar. They've all been successful and they're doing it their own way. And you just get down to New Orleans, like I said. It's been a very creative offense. They've won a lot of different ways. They've adapted to their personnel. They had a shift in the mid part of this decade. And the roster changed significantly and they found ways to won and they won at a high level year over year. So to me, that's a testament of a really good coach and a really good organization. So is adaptability then? Sure, I mean, it could work for some people. You can certainly well noted, you look at New Orleans and you look at New England and all those guys. Yeah, you gotta adapt. Nobody wants to, but I don't think some of the things is a foundation. You look at Pittsburgh, they're gonna be a really physical football team. They adapt, obviously, they're offensive. But in a day, there is an identity. And in New Orleans, their identity, they're gonna play hard, physical, they're gonna throw a lot of personnel groups at you and they're gonna make life difficult and they get in there, like I said, it's a hornet's nest, it's gonna be loud and that's what makes this game fun. You'll love to have the fans back because to me, those are atmospheres you wanna play in. Do you have a side entity? We'll see how the roster evolves, but at the end of the day, if we're gonna play well on the scrimmage, we're gonna be able to adapt, we're gonna play a smart situation on football and we're gonna be able to finish games. That's what I want to see. Michael. Yeah, good know it was like, I posted something on social media that looks like it's at least working. Where is he at at this point? He's, a lot of the guys are that are on, that they're on IR, they're working to return to play. So again, I don't, that's great that he's on social media, but good for Matt, I hope he's progressing, just like all of our players, Dante, all of them, and we'll make the assessment when the doctors, we update it pretty much weekly, so that's all I can give you there. Can you anticipate other one of those guys being back? We'll see, see what the doctors tell it. I get updated every day, and we have a plan. I'm not gonna make those plans public. We have a great medical staff and good team, so I'll just, they tell me who's available and that's who we play. When you've had a guy who's had two concussions, what level of agent realm, what? Did you diagnose him with that? You guys did. No, it's not what happened. So again, again, everybody's on the protocols, but we're not gonna put somebody out there if it hadn't been cleared. So it's just like when I got asked that he got knocked out, like those are just like, I know where you're going with this. We take everybody's player safety paramount in this league. So you let the medical professionals handle it. So if they're gonna take him, we're gonna be very cautious, but a guy doesn't go out there if he's had a second concussion right away unless it was identified. So that's not what the case was with him. That's why he played last week. So then that's what your, what's your question? So my question is what the level of concern is that he's a bit of, you know, if you're saying he's been in protocol twice in two months, what's your level of concern right now? The reason they put him in the protocol, think about this logically, they put him in the protocol because we're trying to make the game safer. Nobody's in there. And I don't know anybody in the league in 2021 that's pushing guys out there that aren't ready to play. So we've gotten, to me, the game of football has gotten a lot smarter. Where you get these false narratives, it's all of a sudden you're just taking it on the surface. Like so, again, so what are you trying to ask? Like all these players, if somebody has an issue, whether it's the day after the game or happens in-game or in practice, we're gonna do everything we can to make sure that we take care of the player. So that's the best way I can give you. So I don't know where you're trying to lead the rest of the questions. I wasn't trying to lead the rest of the questions. I was literally just asking, what are you doing? That's what we do with every player. Every player, we're gonna do that. What are your level of concerns with him? My concern is with every player on the roster. It's really practical. And then try not to take it on the surface. Every player we have in here, whether it's an injury, that's visible and invisible, like we care a lot. And so that's a concern for every player on this roster. Every coach on this roster, everybody in that building out here that works for the lineup. And this falls into the same category as I've agreed, but do you know if Calvin will be available Sunday? Don't know. So it's like everybody on the injury, we'll get updates. We'll figure it out. And so I can't answer that, because I don't know. You don't know, right? That's all in. So do you have for your preparation purposes a day of the week where you would need to know? We need to know about, let us know about Friday, let us know about Thursday. You have a, you prepare it on the week. Okay, that's why we put an injury report out. And you have to assess what's realistic. If they're gonna play, you got a plan. You got to be able to adapt. You got to be able to adapt whether something happens on a Friday, been a part of that, or a guy. Something happens at practice on Friday, you have to adapt. No different than a Saturday or a Sunday morning. It's no different than you get to the first play of the game, something happens, the game's gonna go on, and you got to have a plan. And so we always try to have a plan, and we assess it as objective and as real as we can. So yeah, it certainly can alter it if you know this guy's probably not gonna make it to Sunday. Okay, we're probably not gonna take an account. If you do take an account for somebody, and something happens on Friday or Saturday, you're not gonna take your ball and go home. You got to have to find another solution. Here's what we're gonna have to do. No different if the back of quarterback has to play. If you got to get down to your emergency quarterback, your backup tackle, your backup swing guard, your backup mic, and then on and on down the thing. Back up punter, we've had to do that this year, right? Koo had to come in and punt. So you got to have a plan. The team, is there daily communication or do you save us checking in a week or two weeks? That's private information, and I'm not gonna disclose that. Just like I'm not gonna disclose. Players can speak for themselves when it comes to their own injuries. So I'm not gonna dive into that. I'll update you guys as soon as I know on the roster, I'm not trying to hide anything, but I'm not gonna speak for a player. Yeah, I understand that. And you guys have to do your job. And I don't fault you for that, but I'm not gonna disclose their personal information. And the first thing you had without Calvin, it was a big kind of a breakout for Kyle. It appeared maybe he had a different level of defensive attention last week. What was your read on that? And what would you expect going forward for house defense's treat, Kyle? Well, like, depends on the scheme you're playing. I mean, they gave him a lot of attention in Miami. He won his matchups. Didn't win on Sunday. So, I mean, that's part of this life in the NFL. It's the best, the lessons learned. We got a lot of faith in Kyle. He's a rookie. You know, I continued to joke that, you know, you play one good game. It's just a way of the world now. Hypes, unbelievable. More than ever, it's in your face 24-7. And if you wanna live through your avatar, you're gonna live through a false reality. And the reality is that any rookie in this league, it's gonna be hard. And you gotta have to assess it when you see the whole picture at the end of the season and then a couple of years into their career. But if you live and die with the week-to-week narratives, shame on you. And Kyle, he's done a lot of good things as a rookie. Like all of us, including myself, we got room to improve. He's gonna draw a lot of attention. Usually the biggest guy on the field, whereas number eight, every defense we've played has had a plan for him. And it's up to the coordinator how they wanna play it. And at the end of the day, you're gonna get man coverage as a wide outer tight end. If you're a back that's in the passing game, and you're gonna have to beat man coverage. And they're really good players in this league. And nobody's super human. Yeah, Michael. This is kind of a very, maybe an unusual question, but can you explain the strategy between, with L.A. Frye, basically bringing him in on Friday? I think that one's pretty obvious. I like the minutiae word, to go back and forth, to spar back and forth, until looking on the surface. It's right there in front of you, man. Like, it's pretty damn obvious. I know, I'm just wondering, you know, because basically the guy's getting hired on Fridays and fired on Mondays. Excuse me again, there's a dramatic language. It's not fired, guys, it's the roster move. And if your mindset's that kind of soft, and it's like, oh, I got fired. No, L.A. knows the plan, most of these guys. It's a hard life. You're well compensated. The NFL is hard, but like, there's things you have to do. You're gonna see it every day. You gotta see the roster moves around the league. We're still dealing in a pandemic world, correct? You hope it's closer to the end than it's not. We got a doctor, I'm not an epidemiologist. I don't have all the answers. Maybe I can get online and claim I do, like a lot of people in this world, but I don't. So again, you gotta have a plan. So that's pretty obvious. We got confidence if Elliott had to go on a Sunday, he would go. But the answer's just, there's nothing trying to hide there. It's right in plain sight. I'm not thinking of trying to hide. I'm just wondering what those conversations are like from the guy. Like on a Monday, you'd be like, all right, see you in three days? It's actually not a bad gig. He gets paid for the week, and he works like two days. But he stays ready, and he's a professional, and we got a lot of faith in him. And then again, he had to work out with another team. You gotta have plan B if somebody were to sign him, just like every team in the league. They're all dealing with it, whether he's on the practice squad all week, or you're adding them on Friday. It's, you know, every team's dealing with the same thing. Coach, follow up on one of Kyle Pitts. He said after the game that, you know, talking about the matchup against Stephen Gilmore and talking about how that was kind of like a welcome to the NFL morning for him. But how important is that for him to go through things like that to kind of be able to help himself, help his development going forward? You gotta work every day at it if you want to be a good pro. Or they put Gilmore on him, you know, put a lot of more on him, they put not much innings. There's a lot of good players in this league, and you gotta be ready week to week. So that's hard. It's hard to sustain success in this league. It'd be a pro. Kyle's got the right mindset. That's like, we all strive to be perfect, and you work to improve, and you're not gonna be. I'm not gonna call the perfect call every time. I'm gonna try, but I'm not. And you gotta be able to have the mindset to live with that and understand and be objective. Okay, what can I do better the next time? It's the same thing we ask the players to do. So again, everyone wants to get in there because it's a name or not. And, you know, they rattle about them on social media and, you know, puff it up or whatever. In a day, they're still 11-on-11 too when you got the protections. You got the quarterbacks gotta deliver it. You gotta have the right spacing and the right thing. You know, that all goes together. You know, everybody needs to be coordinated to run the right routes. And sometimes, again, you don't go into a lot of scheme here, but you wouldn't know unless you're in those meetings what we're asking guys to do. You take a picture, you can have some expert online that can take a still shot in football and I'm telling you they're dead wrong because they have no idea what the quarterback reads are. They don't understand exactly how you ask them to run it. You can know you have a general information on how somebody runs a play. But until you're in those meeting rooms, you don't know if they change the read, change the depth. You can have a good educated guess and there's some smart people do that. It's not a knock on everybody that does it. But you get into that world like it's not, like you do have to beat man covers one-on-one. I get that. But it's not just all of a sudden, it's not a one-on-one game either. So there's a lot of cause and effects that go into it. We're happy with a lot of our guys. We know where we're at in the season and we gotta hell of a challenge on Sunday and we gotta be ready to roll. I appreciate it. Anything else? I'd like the braze gear in the back. Yeah, just say it. Just say it. Just say it. Just say it.
