And so I think that was a big part of what we do in the offseason.
We'll have the same discussions next year.
You know, and it's still going to come back to how can we coach it better?
How can we teach it better?
All right, how can we help our players reach their maximum potential?
And I think any time, if you look at it any differently, I just don't know how you're going to have a lot of success.
Well, look, he's definitely in the mix at defensive end, and if you go back and you watch the tape and you watch his improvement from week one, all right, until the time that he got hurt in the Cincinnati game, you saw a lot of improvement, all right?
And that's one of the things, when we talk about the pass rush, okay, one of the things that we've talked about
It gets back to the fundamentals and how we teach those things.
We lost some of that because we were so focused on the scheme.
And that totally falls on me.
And so I think if we do a better job of the fundamentals and the techniques of doing
those things that we're going to ask them to do, um, that we'll get, we'll get better at that.
And I think we'll see, you know, our pass rush improve in terms of just our guys rushing as one unit.
Because it's hard.
There was a lot of times where we had a really good rush.
But we weren't quite as good over here on this side.
And so it allowed the quarterback, you know, to step up into a lane.
