 Morning everybody. Good doing great. I thought we had some areas of improvement that we were focusing on last week when it came to the return game making the most out of situations especially when teams were either sky kicking the ball to you know whether it's a CP or Keith the number one thing is making sure that we have the football in the next play for our offense so getting that done and an Avery you know as a returner making the most out of those situations I think he had like a 12 or 13-yard return plus the penalty to add on to it and then when we had him backed up being able to you know put our offense in good field position and plus territory so those things came into play coverage wise we could continue to get better on keeping leverage on the football we had one kickoff cover which worked out in our favor return to drop it and we're able to keep leverage on it for a six-yard return and then you know Cam you know had had a better day it was awesome to see him improve and go out there and perform at a high level and get the ball where we needed to be still areas of improvement still working on you know all phases of special teams getting better and then obviously you know coup finished a game for us you know putting the ball through the uprights to help us silt the game. How big was the front by Cam right before it wasn't his longest punt but it was probably the best place punt. Yeah one of the better place punts he did a good job getting the ball out you know getting up and through the football trusting and relying on his technique and his basic fundamentals and we could we could continue to do a better job getting downfield and covering and not letting the guy get vertical in that return but still we're in a good position and we feel comfortable you know with Cam and what he's doing and he's we talked about it last week and we talked about it in the punter evaluation and training camp continue growth and you can see that from Cam you know from this past weekend so continue to work on it this week and see we see we go from there. How can you? Go for it Scott. Cam obviously had a couple of punts against Tampa that he liked that back and then you brought in some competition but how did you see what did you like about his response to those types of things you know just you know like all that he faced some adversity he had a battery come in and how do you think he responded? What I liked most about what Cam you know took into going into last week was focusing on himself in order for him to be the best teammate was doing his job and focusing on his fundamentals and his technique when it came to that position and not necessarily looking over his shoulder so that was great to see and being resilient when it came to that because sometimes you know as individuals you could be comparing or worried about that person that's next to you or you compete him with whether then your best competition is yourself so him going into last week focusing and really getting doubting on the details and fundamentals and then having the right mindset going into that game and it was awesome to see him perform that way last weekend. How do you work? I mean before here you work with Crater too right? So how do you work? How do you simulate? How do you create pressure for game-winning kicks? You know how do you go about doing that? I think more so people get fixated on you know the pressure kick end of half in the game to take the lead under two minutes in the half in the game to tie the game whatever case may be or it could be a kick to put us up it could be under four minutes put us up two scores. The biggest thing for our room and for those individuals whether it was working with Prater or here working with Ku and wherever I've been or where I've worked with the special teams is really being doubted in your fundamentals and your technique because you could get fixated on hey the outcome of that play or to end the game or I got to make this kick rather than working on your technique your approach on football how you take the field before you approach the football your steps okay to contact on the football so when we get in those situations I mean the situation is the situation but we're really focused on the actual fundamentals of technique and our approach and our mindset going into that one rep play. Is there a specific type of mental makeup or mental character maybe that you look for in a kicker in that situation? Whether you try to treat it like fundamentals as well there's still something there that differentiates. I think short-term memory having that short-term memory you see that you know coach defensive backs before and you see that with defensive backs you could give up a big play but being able to come back the very next play and being able to execute your particular technique on that next down because the most important down is that down so you know the mindset when it comes to having a short-term memory because you could go into a pregame you may miss five out of your ten kicks in a pregame or you might miss that one PAT going into the locker before the game starts but that doesn't matter because the next opportunity is the best opportunity so having a short-term memory I think is big when it comes to playing that position as it is for all positions on football. Going into that game when a kick where was your heart rate like where was your level of nerves and maybe why was it at the rate of that? Straight up honest with you I didn't have any nerves because we were all 11 guys just doing their job we trust all 11 guys that are on the field at any given time and we worked various situations but we as a team and as a staff we really focus in on the details and the fundamentals and when it comes to that whatever play it is whether it's the end of half you know our end of game field goal or it's the first PAT of the game it just we got to win that down from the you know the snap the protection and then hold and then coup just making contact on the football so my heart rate was no different in any other play because we weren't worried about the outcome we were just worried about the play at the time yeah just being in the present that's one thing you know back in 2017 Kobe Bryant spoke to the team when I was with the Chargers and one thing that he talked about was being obsessed with the present and that's easy to say but it's hard to do and as a coach I try to do that every single time we're on the practice field and then even when we're in games because sometimes you could go in a lull as a person because you're not in the present because you're worried about what happened in the past or you're too focused on what's going to happen in the future so that's why the presence called a gift you got to be in the present when it comes to everyday life on the field and off the field and that's something that I try to do as a coach and I try to help as a staff we try to do it too and we try to help our players stay in the present because that down is the most important play and now allows us to focus on how we could get our players better for the next opportunity with with corduroy doing so much you know offense deep you know just team what's y'all's management plan for him doing the game somebody track what you know what what he's you know doing on offense and when you're going to need him for special teams and when he's got to get back over there I guess how do y'all manage all that I guess it's a good problem to have when it comes to a dynamic player like CP we're more so just pay attention to you know how's it going on offense you know how where's his reps are at it's more so in the present to like how's he doing at that time if he could be able to go for the next down and CP is a tough and he's well conditioned player and he's both mentally and physically so you know sometimes we got to get him off the field for particular special teams but he's always running to go and he's always ready to go so just making sure that we're taking care of him or not you know burning them out too much but great player he does a great job of being in the present when it comes to those particular special teams plays and he understands like you know special teams is what made him who he is in an NFL and he's all in on special teams which is awesome it's a great problem to have when he's playing well on offense and he's an impact player on special teams his backup guy at all those spots got to be you know but no one y'all we do a great job I mean coach Hoff myself you know coach Smith and CP and then the other players when it comes like Gunner or whatever if we do a good job of just being in the present and making sure that we're communicating and we're watching those offensive plays and making sure hey where are we at with this particular phase what we're gonna you know get who could be available for this particular position at that time I knew a lot of it actually because I was with young way when we signed him as an undrafted free agent when I was with the Chargers and it was pretty cool it was a special moment for coup as it is for the whole team but particularly for coup because his first he got cut after our fourth game of the season and we were getting it going into that week we were getting ready for the New York Giants to play at MetLife so it was gonna be his first time playing close to home 2017 and he he never got the chance to do it so the very next opportunity was this past weekend so it was cool to be a part of that and see the growth from 2017 to now and then to see him you know go out there and execute at a high level and put our team in a position to win the game it was an awesome opportunity for coup in our team I mean he found his groove he found his way you know he's very resilient when it comes to his overall approach and how he is as a as a player and as a man on and off the field and to see him find what works for him and the discipline that he has and how and in the commitment he was committed before but he's even more committed now when it comes to his approach and how he views the game and how he's holding others accountable around him and because he has a high expectation to do his job at a high level so he expects that around for his other his other teammates whether it's the specialist or himself as well and it's great to see him grow as an individual when it comes to that but he's a football player that just what happens he kicks kicks the ball through the uprights takes a couple years to get to that point how do you feel like he can kind of be an example of that I think Tori you know just telling the story you know he's living proof of you know being able to stay the course even though things might not go your way at the beginning but you're never allowed an external you never allowed a the external change who you are internally so he stayed he's been the same person he's consistent day in and day out from the time he got into the NFL 17 to he is now it's the same person so it was a blessing we get the opportunity to come here and work with coup it was a great opportunity just because of the man he is and how he leaves by example and he's been great for our room particularly for camp because you know coup was in this position kind of like how cam was a couple years ago and to be able to share that knowledge and his experience because he he'd been in that position before it was great for our room and it's great for those other players too and that's why I think a lot of our players gravitate to coup because he wasn't just a higher drafted pick as a kicker like fourth or fifth round pick he was undrafted he's been through up and downs he's been through the workout wire traveling and working out with different teams been on the practice squad and then now he's at the position he's at because of the hard work the dedication and staying true to who he is yeah coach what challenges are you all facing with the worst two units this week I mean good specialist unit you know they quicker and punter Tress does a great job putting the ball all over the place Tress way yep Tress way Hopkins he's been pretty consistent you know within the last year and a half you know he hit a game winner versus the Giants actually you know so those guys and then core group wise they got some speed on the perimeter and then interior they got some physical guys but you know Hudson you know Mayo those type of guys Morris that they do are nor sorry they do a good job of covering downfield on kicks and then have a good really good return against north south with DeAndre Carter number one he does a good job dual return for those guys he's gonna make the most out of those plays and you can see on film whether it was versus the Giants or versus the Chargers or you know even he was had a couple how to return verse Buffalo but he's a journeyman has been through a lot of different teams but he's been consistent with his approach and his fearless running so we have a great challenge ahead of us this week and our guys look forward to the opportunity to improve and get better
