Otherwise, we would just stand there and ask our guys to block the guy across from them.
Or on a pass play, why we need to make sure we take this drop and have our feet and eyes set in this area because the rhythm of the whole play might be tied to it.
So if you're off by a little bit or you need a little bit of an extra fundamental at the top to get into a good throwing position,
Then you're behind when the backside in cut comes wide open, and then you're behind when the check down's wide open, but you've got to do it.
It just waterfalls from there in a way you don't want it to go, and these guys learn the offense.
They watch the clips.
They see Kirk Cousins and Sam Darnold, and they see Matthew Stafford doing some things, and it goes back beyond that.
and they can see the pathway hopefully to we we talked about a few minutes ago what is out there for me if i do it this way and then i'm always telling these guys i still want you to go play we're trying to build this inventory of decision making and a
rhythm in your mind of how these games are gonna go because then you just get to show up and the game happens and you can go play and you don't even really realize these habits that you formed are now the driving reason why the game has slowed down or seems more easier I just feel like I'm pitching and catching out there seen it before seen it with you know one of the best years I've ever experienced was the one year we got in LA with Matthew Stafford there's nobody more talented
There's nobody tougher.
There's nobody more willing to put the team on their back to go try to win.
But even he, in those moments, and he's talked about it, what it's like to be coached hard and be held to a standard.
And in many ways, you're looking for ownership of it.
not always me just saying hey this is how we do it and this is why it's what do you guys think about this first of all because it's you know it's well documented what I was as a quarterback I know all of this is hard to me to physically do it so what do you think about that I know coach that's actually I like that or hey what if we did it like this and then you incorporate that that's one of the reasons why I think we've had some success in
at times when multiple players play, because when Carson Wentz came into the game last year with no training camp, it wasn't what me or Wes or anybody else wanted to do.
It was what could Carson feel comfortable running that he could go out there and function as if he had had 5,000 hours or 500 reps.
of something because there's a lot to bank in a career of playing quarterback whether you have highs or lows or whatever it may be there's a lot to pull out of that to help them hopefully have success with us they tell me i only get two more questions i could do an hour with you easy someone try to squeeze these in here it's probably my fault no no i appreciate no i appreciate the answers word salad uh well every once a year i gotta say that
There's some of that.
What happens is I just try to answer people's questions, and sometimes I really, really want to try to answer a question.
Five years later now, you wouldn't believe how cynical I've become.
