[0:00]" America go to after all if you're worried that reality all the listeners statement read and thank you for the but for an assortment of collectible Arthur brought down for almost. Often you great success. I don't know declaration we've. Well yesterday 477. And it's basically a little mini blizzard over Detroit to play and -- conditional upon all sixteen games of them have up front about the well I think you know on practice and in the I think -- or maybe better conditioned to it then there's it's both quality in. All Everett -- specialists that -- and a the punt returner and Boston and then. Steve Qichen on it and Chris Hanson penalty off Francisco players are open and -- on but the ol' Arizona three and out for position thirteen twenty -- wrote down game was over they just did not look like you're desperate to report that they just. What they've just -- want to -- if you get that sense wicca. -- blood darkened waters out -- As if we do -- and back watching on television -- with -- and got a good offense even that early on in the game that they'd just didn't want to be there. Well I just I just think a little bit like last week Pete that our team felt like. If were really rated it goes they'll make a mistake early in the game won't be capitalized on not -- them Oakland and then. You know we're it will make third down stop for Atlanta play their room curtain. It could kickoff coverage. And them Mike made planned third -- that point -- punt return and you know -- Indians and not a good kickoff and others stopped -- the return so. You know it just takes two -- as you know you know two or three plays in this league and in -- of sudden -- fourteen points or 21 points and so. I think our players are really excited about the opportunity about their job on Orleans and it's -- when -- team racked -- That was part of the game plan going in but as the week went on in and we. I'm more comfortable with the forecast -- Snowy and possible possibly rainy and -- we. We have at some plays actually on Friday and even Saturday and walk through that we didn't have an earlier in the week in our in our room. Too tight -- there you know. Call often three and that's well over us over and that it would bigger picture people so we had those later in the week and actually help them quit again with -- contribute from would you please and actually hit the ball to. I was still thinking about those lobby in formula. We're we're so I don't I don't wear a no play action what embryo Vrabel that matter where you might comfortable -- we're going realized that's what we we got a lot of guys can do that. -- you know when you're watching. Him when and that type conditions. School or trade and its growth views changed directions and moved to receivers get a runner receiver right out of the TV industry around here as a lot trouble trying to react. Yes and and we tried to get the ball downhill there weren't too many plays. -- that there really any place where we went outside except the couple times a mouse on -- down inside and we had a rough short corner but. Most of -- not plays or some type -- screen variety use the receivers the backs. And qualities you get the ball outside on those type of plays and then was hand and then run in -- Catan all of that so. Well we kind of substitute of those plays outside and they make him to have been personalized when. Not really that plays the same way they've really played that's a full year they treated like too tight ends two backs the way they normally play it and and that Wilson down in the box about the corner up. On the weak side and and try to play kind of a nine man front against it which does it's relentless that now on defense."

[3:52]" Good defense and they came out and this is a passing an animated bones and there where it would actually make him -- and tried to establish a run. It's it's good so far from there have trouble with -- you know slow developing everything else. That knocked them out of the ball ball game a lot we can you not in a while what you are going to try to run the ball you don't run. It's very effective in the party game plan from then on it."

[4:14]" Well I think it was important for us to start the game and not let them establish a running game that was one over their priorities defensively it was. Let's don't let him on the ball we know they can throw another got a lot of great receivers and get all the facts a lot. And FM it's that in with a with the running game and and trying to defend everything that's really hard. We just really had big emphasis up front going and that. We stop the run and and just turn it into a passing game -- we can display -- pass we knew that was going to be hard at least you know we're trying to stop everything and that help us that defensively as we did play the run pretty well -- And had that's the one handoff there for twelve yards or whatever was. But on top of that we scored on offense and so the score. I think took them out of the running game this marches as we did defensively those combinations to thank for your surprise at all initially that they try to -- run the ball out immediately probably come out for five wise and really try to you know exploited secondary and model and I think that's a hard way to play and -- And they'll like that you know we're just throwing the ball on every single now. I've been and we gave them some opportunities to run the ball we played a lot of deeper coverage where their safeties wouldn't hand down -- close line of scrimmage and we saw on the Minnesota and that. When Minnesota brought all the guys down by the line than they were they were thrown the ball on some of those check from the places that are run. And you know we played Minnesota a couple of years ago and kind of did the same thing you know we threw the ball a lot in that game up there on the Monday night game. But we felt like if we didn't bring everybody down around line of scrimmage that they would try to run rather -- throw it we just -- to stop him that worked out force for."

[5:50]" Wanted to play difficult for them where where north. Ireland that on the predominantly there they're playing in the film. It was a bill Walsh so what he's going to colon. And Matt Cassel never been in this -- retreated practices. The line acumen -- through okay you know -- was upon as a surprise Award came shall include two world. You -- the game -- who watched Matt -- ball was surprised that he had no effect of personal portable."

[6:17]" Well I again ethical Islam or a combination of the the game that was the conditions. You know at but he made a real nice throat that Fitzgerald. Over their front of their bench wells had great coverage on me but it doberman on the sideline that. We got pretty good pressure on warmer the middle and you know was our forums that but the road. A couple times we had a pretty good coverage on the receivers I think the pass rush. You know probably had something to do with this effect and the sound all that. The -- game plan with Cassel throwing them much was that a factor of and just workers who have that or did you. And truth we've been able -- Well we just really try to mix it up they way we we threw and we ran a lot of those passes that weren't. We're very part I'll feel like they were just you know outside runs or. Quick throws try to get the ball up space to a receiver back that handled him the chance around with a -- and break a tackle their so. I think that when you combine those plays it to the number of actual downfield throws. By about 80% of either short throws or runs through talk."

[7:22]" we spoke these differences from your offensive game plans warned of vocal all the -- downhill. Defensively you -- the changes when the weather's like that from your calling."

[7:32]" What I had to think defensively you want to be more. Hewitt defend the middle field and and make him throw the ball on the sideline and make him throw the ball. Down the field. -- and want to give those away better you know you want to be competitive on the inside route and I thought that when they -- inside routes and crossing routes that. We were on a pretty tight end and those were those were difficult frozen in the and it really. -- ago when not couple of down and and a tip the couple also. That that gives an opportunity. You know force the balls outside and we are able when they ran a screen passes we had a couple nice plays and you know male made one early knock the ball loose you know we could've gotten a fumble on the -- a couple of -- outside. And you know we were pretty close on those two -- you know minimal gains -- you know once they get those gone and it's just kind of you know -- start in the -- all that. Felt like this offensively we had good balance between our wide receiver screens are throws to the facts and on the run again. What they would do better prepared to throw all the little. -- battle -- it repaired right was especially good old involved you know he's really their slot receiver and their leading receiver and then Fitzgerald course. You know as a it was a great compliment to him so. They had a lot of pros that Bolden groups corset and had yesterday that. That's that's kind of their attackers throw inside the olden. -- where Fitzgerald then and all the facts that you know some space situations. Like why grounds where Nelson and springs -- a much to the the play last week in those conditions help because without you playing really. As bad as this that way whether it -- Werth he had big it's harder for the skill players handled the wet balls than it is the snow this notre more about the footing. When rains then that's relief you know the ball handling it's that's football one. -- last week we have more trouble in the ball -- on the pollen and knows a bit harder to hang on all the harder throw it so. I thought those conditions were tougher than the monthly it's -- you know rained out there of course rain. You know in Pittsburgh. In the Pittsburgh game knows those pre. For Dario great talent into. A lot of guys get a supplemental -- definitely gate you're used to it and and -- that point Regis you know. -- deal Clinton and honorable thing about it too much as frequently -- can appropriately it involved I don't know wrote that is what -- respect -- Jarvis Green like they can struggled at times this year and we're Mario I think and one of the most underrated players on the team and since you've been here but fishery from the start will be good to see him get back in the groove -- very. Mike Wright -- when ever to wear down. Absolutely Mike and -- gave us a lot of pressure on the quarterback in the and Bentsen and and then Richard chipped in -- some good pressures as well and and very able. But Mike Wright and -- an excellent there that's I don't know about it and it's this or after January but that Richard -- out of -- some kind of a back injury and each instrument you play on them back a a a affect his what is productive -- Well after that have been you know -- of the program warned they were going to ask you know -- the felt watcher. But I era emailed me. Well all love. You know we'll see cozy he wasn't able offense Damon -- hopefully that'll that clear but we'll just have to see it's you know the 24 hours after the game -- see what happens and we go to practices leaflet with it will do well. We are quite a few days until game time the big game against Buffalo. And I'm sure -- do all the candidates and your -- apart from this if this -- than normal yet but yes practiced Tuesday and Wednesday and the give the players and coaches off Thursday and come back down on Friday so it's kind of substitute and Tuesday for Friday -- or -- close in front that junior. And I missed that I think the -- if you gave themselves though there have a."

[11:25]" Or -- victim of games in Israel and whoa whoa -- when you moved toward toward what the of the Buffalo game. And the big talk hero video review and while both playoff implications of the scenarios all. We passes before but. How difficult is it to keep the guys focused on exactly which -- to call."

[11:46]" What I think we've been doing after three weeks ever since Pittsburgh and we just pretty much said that -- one game season all we can do is control. Our performance in this game and whatever else happens is our controls don't worry about it and the players the great job of that -- They prepared. To mountain and play well when the in the we're plan that week and whatever else happens. Who's got to go out there and do our best then we'll try to think that same approach again this week but we always you know. We we always root against the division teams and like that we can. Bring Canada and we'll -- him. You know root against a Baltimore and teams like that but I mean any and reviews -- and -- devoted -- who's going to put their take care of them. And the you know that we itself but about the guy -- missed out -- this kind of weather consistently. Has been unbelievable villages. In Buffalo about. But enough mascot. I don't remember what Buffalo -- lot of like doctor wrote that it is concentration and ability you know changes for implants were on the slippery -- he's -- almost. There is an excellent job and and it's a -- because you know because that's when you. You really got to take you know good run the ball and can count on that plan Fullerton and and the consistency come through -- did it did an excellent job yesterday -- now in the fall down on the field also listen thank. Good coverage of you know Mike Richardson and thrown in. -- span Kelley Washington we have some big plays you know once -- I think two of the constant point so you know start that kind of field position defensively that's that's big help and if you can hold it which we did many times yesterday. You know then offensively in short -- the best month loan. Of one point yes. We now -- three different you know they'll come off."

[13:35]" The front I don't know why I left but at the end of the I don't want to have -- from from a psychological standpoint obviously with the figure visits -- understand about -- yes there's investing in Denver much and -- would not allow Ortiz cynical I would be shown what appointment would look for you know the -- the Buffalo. What do you feel better that the Jets game in the Baltimore game -- being played for refuse to post 1 o'clock psychologically that give you. I think it doesn't make it a little these."

[14:00]" If process focus foul word on there's there's nothing else to do except play our games though there's no other scores -- anything that. Affects us and that's fine. -- if it was different different should be watching our scores to -- but you know the way it worked out as you know we've we've got 1 o'clock and then. We get -- business there if we don't won't make any difference -- it but it feels -- there's your dude you have got -- Buffalo watch your game would you combat employing just get updates on the way back on but we've -- yeah we. You know in all of our other broken it's we've been able two pickup TV broadcasts in the in the here. And that -- and sure bullet through the dude GM or ownership having -- in the fourth game or isn't too I don't know how it works they have on them this trying to figure with a good on third down and wondered about it and I have I don't you know there's a lot of sure there's a lot of brilliant people work and down on TV schedules and ratings and Austrian all Giants so whatever it is that's that's the way out of my round up I don't -- note -- it -- the curriculum and probably you set for 1 o'clock in the trees forming doesn't make them but he was four -- or -- where -- I think they've already. You know ethnically sorority you know set the in such expectations that that's not going to be elated as name after that. -- last year and when -- games around and so forth and none of colleges -- little time. They got a game -- be in time from noon today at 8 o'clock at night so. I think that's that's somethin' that all of -- gotten used to it's and they you know preference in -- every team has to deal with -- it's movement."

[15:39]" Buffalo came back. Nice game yesterday. To pull it out against Denver Denver brought. Never a little bit but. You know there's a team -- pot and then there's. Not. Finishing yours walls -- people while that would what do you see we knew what tomorrow they'll."

[15:57]" they they lost a lot of close games have been a couple tough games that. They they really Capital One probably -- one jet game you know in good example. You know put Miami competitively that if they played everybody tough they can. And in you know Edwards I think is is. You know probably has an -- quarterbacks and it makes a difference for them when he's and there are no question about that -- that -- can't -- most on but. You know I think that you know that it -- think that makes a big difference at a very good skill players the receivers are excellent visit to. Outstanding running backs and tight ends a productive than a fast and quick on defense and I don't think we play a better team I mean is I and I don't think we -- a better team. That Buffalo bills' special teams and they're good on everything they can return kicks and block them they cover well. That he. They've their very good their creative you know they run their fake field goals and they ponson. You know -- got the Jets in two games they -- employs something monthly than the first and again and so. You know you just can't is can't relax on these guys we saw on our first in order you know Mckelvin. I hit an 85 you're wrong and on -- That is very dangerous in the kicking game so you know it starts right there and and reloaded they've been in this game and win it couples but for the most part they're very competitive and that's going to play or two away from. -- and Wales. Coach him on the that last last -- upon you would expect from room that the monthly program. It was early in the game and reform you know well right below what they've done the last time that by the Jets was Mormon kept the ball and -- and kept that around the other ends of the Jets. A couple extra players over their Buffalo. You know obviously anticipated that and and they and they took it around left and that around right end and wide open so. You know really you know those kind of things just kind of -- they at a you know it's it's another log on the fire. Weird worried about fate ponson onside kicks. And block K excellent field goals Perry action Kelton. You know it's. Fumble -- thought you know different different rushes. Tried you know trying to gain and is turning into field position in the kicking game and its it's hard they. Do very very good job and Marshall who want to get them. Which was -- Mexico declared -- which he hit yet Danica they run ball and that seem like he kind of got a little bit better in the second half they've -- for a couple runs early in the first quarter -- you know in the second half. Seem like their run ball -- more consistency in. They have a great date opponent but since tonight -- veteran children that play the best in the game. And nine million this -- got off the back with. Who roll out. Versus regular drop back passes Israel play action pass and and no more yet he'll he's all the pressure come from backside kind of rolled mountain. You know. -- that -- Chan on up on line of scrimmage in a ball there for second and so. You know I think that they they do good job with their -- receivers answerable for receivers and -- three receivers and in another facts are very good effective accidentally it's so there. In the a lot of guys that offense but -- of the biggest. Often excellent and -- another not bigger than than a bigger than Philadelphia. And well then -- we play it was right there. -- and shoot. Well anyway but not out think they're quite that but I -- likes to walker and in Petersburg they're -- but the inside guys you know butler and no blockers repeat it to Boller in other I mean they're big -- it. Although it is an example. -- what makes -- different. That's a mere fact that you some of the top back -- you played. It's been left open yours and he can be beat him take over him. Yeah I think the thing that lynch and you know we see a lot of backs that are fast and quick and and you know break tackles and change directions -- thing about -- that's. Really impressive power for. You know he's not a vehicle can god that he. He plays on our strength and he isn't that -- levels is -- tackle. He dropped as well and then you know it's awful lot of tackles this can't get them down. They're good lower body strength and as the effort that leverage catches the ball well but he's quick he can make people knew -- it's it's the but you know as an inside runner you -- push the pile. You know he he runs in there and he says carelessly into the earth and second five who touched on the Jets pushed. I'm piled yeah and yeah right and it and so when he he has enough plays like that where it's not. -- one -- thing he doesn't quite evident and so he. You just don't realize how strong he is gone -- and an additional sanctioning Adams on and guys medicine and all that goes it's. He touched on earlier we're just yeah how how difficult it is to play. A team and -- for everything and Everett when playing for pride so they're going to throw everything after with a Q do you think -- that is it more difficult to prepare for. -- what we prepare for a repeat this every week so. You know we can. You know we we never going to gain -- was teams and play against those. And and usually -- don't. On SEC -- that's their best performance but Washington with bill is written in Seattle subjects those and so we we prepare for everybody's -- and you know businesses player's strengths this is the team's strength is -- done well. These are things we gotta stop in the turns out that you know where it will handle those in the game great that. You know we we don't want colon -- well you know we don't think -- but it -- Earns I just really trick plays stuff like that we're there nobody really have no nothing to lose by trying any anything and everything I mean -- decisive no. For -- and -- starting out you know -- not a good thing about Buffalo -- is it -- I think you have to play them like that every time. Because when lynch gets the ball you don't know where he's going to go it you know like we tell our players. Everybody's at the point attack and it's because he starts out -- left. He goes back right as much that goes left so it doesn't matter where it starts you know everybody's -- the point of attack so if they run a reverse. It's really no different than lynch reverse in this field bombs on. You know match is Natalie played that team and I mean notre -- you know a team like the Raiders are much more of day you know get the ball holds the team. Buffalo's that as a running attack were little of the ball if someone's."

[22:39]" I by the way caught with a coach who brought you by Dunkin' -- America runs on Duncan's with Rivera -- yeah five dollars every part time now park clean energy action got their -- question of the week this week's question comes to us from. Barbara Mario rented Barbara asked we got to feel a little -- Kevin O'Connell a fourth quarter yesterday how is Kevin development on the season. As -- progressed as much or more than Matt Cassel did his first year as a -- Well."

[23:07]" I don't think we're really going to know the answer that question until Kevin really gets a chance to play I think that Kevin like map. Aren't a lot this year in the meetings and in the practice field with the opportunities that he's gotten. But he just hasn't had the opportunities to play. And so you know until we can really see -- that translates on the actual field in game conditions. I don't know for real and the answer that question but I think Kevin works hard he's smart kid -- do you think you understand concepts well and in practices well. But well no plan -- the different the practice and out there at -- again -- for him to Vietnam opportunities do so. Those same questions that on people about counsel. Actually it's out there plays. I don't know if -- really knows the answer those but I do like the way Kevin works in progress that he's made. In what he hasn't ended if you -- seems noble well. I think -- well we we had a -- though driving course fairer for rookies you know because we got. No -- is from Virginia and you know guidance from Georgia. Will rights from Louisiana and and Jarvis and Louisiana. You know -- from California -- players' room and on him so. We don't exactly have you know northern north crew here there all. Since reds and the others so your policy -- what you're going to respect of that period in order can be -- driving class we know we -- different -- a lot yeah that's right they're -- Taylor had -- out of Bruce."

[24:39]" And what's also when you call who put -- in the pocket. Call the -- nobody is you know Buffalo's most although he would try to make it more -- this nobody was stopped called us. I was treated in particular or some salt -- I."

[24:55]" Well we we had a thing a couple of years ago when arrow one of our players called -- five minutes before the Saturday night meeting. And said why you know little problem here outspoken. So how long could actually a lot -- just left. Hayward drive at fifty miles an hour to try to get that the meeting room and -- one."

[25:15]" Would it's. It is to what was actually for McFadden you know to. Preventative measures to figure if it's -- bituminous review them and dropped it I was -- street and you modified. -- driver who would actually he has. And I went -- happen would be a six -- but it was there was not a local level and -- Right under the whole thing was -- that I who has. I'm like try to give up the period we'll go right very Christmas and a like you very much for delusional or. Wilson you know figured it was -- announced that we'll have a good holiday in all listeners dollars and and a Steve V Fred the most interest diseases and wish them well affects. It I don't I'd ever say that Atlanta. I grew up with a joke that group. Like coach where Christmas up validate that both would talk -- respect it."
