We're brought to you by the Mercado Certified P.M.I.T. Special Grants and Put Your Shop. Be sure, especially this Friday, check out their lunch special, always good, always good lunch stuff. I'll be cleaning up over there, I've got to stop going in there. First of all, Jake Storrsons, listen, I need a discount card. Yeah, they've been responsive for how long. Right. We need to have a J-former for $44 or 44% off or something, that's probably too much, 4% or something. Anyways, a couple more texts, 51, 24, says he doesn't think we're going to win 6. Alan and Lincoln, Dylan injury, didn't know he was injured. Tweaked the ankle a little bit and Twitter doctors are saying he tweaked it before, so that's why he's short on stuff. He's young. He'd be alright. We wrote some dirt on him. He ain't tough. He'd be alright. He'd be alright. He'd be alright. They got good trainers though. He'd be good. Saturday to Saturday, last year, last spring, Defining Moments, find out about fortitude before the sun makes it up. Yes, John and Corland, I got you. Anyway, now let's dive into, you know, we had some people who wanted to, in particular, 3729, we'll get into his text, right? Is this the long one? Yes. He says, the 335 defense, hey man, I don't even read some of these texts. I just see the, like, the beginning, people with wild though, right? Let me see what he says. He said he didn't like the 335. He's like, can we please go through the 4-3? This is a bad, I could just imagine that somebody asked him. Can we go to the 4-3? Yeah, Jay. Switch him to the 4-3. I wish I watched other teams make big, big running and pass plays all over. It calls football, but Nebraska can't seem to do it. You're in and you're out. So that's the offense. So he's talking about both sides of the ball. Here's the, here's, I'll tell you a little secret. The 335 is no different than the 4-3 than the 4-2, or is it pretty much the 335 just gives you flexibility. Last I checked, they all add up to 11. They do, but they, you can run, you can have 335 personnel and run 4-3 fronts. And you have flexibility to go big 335 or the regular one. It's like Nebraska has done that this year. Yeah. So, I mean, I get it where you say a 4-man front, sure. But the lack of execution and playing and 1-2 and compete, it doesn't matter. Sure. The 335, you know, isn't like, like normal. But again, people are in nickel a lot. You're going to be running 3 and 4-man fronts. Because you have to match up. You might be in the 335 all-game playing against Indiana. You still got to run fit. You still got to tackle. You still got to get off blocks. You still got to know what coverage you're doing. You still got to do your job and then go be a great football player and a great teammate. So yes, I understand that, you know, 335 and 4-3. That's why I said sometimes I always ask, or would tell fans, don't think a play is going to change in plays, calls, or fronts is going to make you play better. Because I'm going to let you on a little secret. And just because Bill Belichick is one of the best defensive minds out there and everybody else is, I mean, there's other great coordinators as well. They've played, they've played, that's what made the Patriots so good. They played every single front with every different personnel. And here's an example I can only talk about my experience. So when I came in to the NFL, I played, it was my first time actually ever playing in a 4-3 or in a 3-4, a traditional 3-4. Okay, you asked what a traditional 3-4 is. So I just always try to explain it to somebody who's listening and going down O Street here, they can envision what it is. So it's a 0 and generally 2-5 techniques, right? So a 0 technique is essentially would be Nash, head up over the center, 2-5 techniques would be Ty Robinson and Jamari Butler, head up to inside or whatever you would want to play on the offense attack generally. Okay? Then 2 outside linebackers, one is 9th technique and one is a 7 just because he's on the outside. And then both linebackers are essentially, we used to call it Okey Front, you're just head up on the guards, right? So every offensive lineman is accounting for it with someone head up on them. Generally, right? That's just the basics, right, that's the basics. So that's the 3-4 that I went from, I went from 4-3, right, and we did everything. We did zone blitzes and everything. And so then you go play 3-4. So the look and the amount of people that could block me, like essentially it seemed like it doubled. The reads are different, getting comfortable is different. Where I lined up it was totally different, I'm usually would be in the A gap or sometimes shaded week, just kind of depends on where we were at, right? And we never really ran with the 2-0 technique in a 4-3 because we played either over front or we sometimes played what we call the even front, which is 2-3s and then you're kind of like head up with the center but didn't need to do much, right? Then of course we had our bubble, our bubble deal. I loved it at the end, you know, I loved it at the end. So I transitioned into that. That was new to me, right? So that's the there, that played 3 years in that. Here comes Greg Williams, he goes back to a 4-3, right? But I didn't play middle because we had a really good at that time middle linebacker in Sam Cowart and we just drafted Brandon Spoon was a bigger, you know, Brandon Spoon was 6-4, 2-50, Sam Cowart was a stud. And I played outside, right? I played Will, so it'd be kind of like Farley's position, running hit, heavy coverage, blitz, you had to learn how to pass rush, you had to do it all, right? So I go from being in the middle of the mix to the outside of the mix, right? Now I kind of like, I moonlighted it in the outside in 3-4 mainly because I was taking, you know, practice reps and all that but not, that wasn't my true blue. Well, then after my fourth year, I get traded to Houston, Dom Capers, right? Blitz, you know, from Pittsburgh, 3-4, here's, here's what I'm talking about this where you talk about 3-3-5. We ran, we had 3-4 personnel, but we ran Okey Front, which is, again, 0 and 2-5 techniques. Then we ran 4-3 fronts with 3-4 personnel, okay? And then we all, then we also ran what they call 3-3-5. We called like our dime or peso because we brought in the guy, who was his name, Charlie Clemens, then we brought in like another dude from the Saints and stuff like so they, we kind of had 3-man fronts with one like outside linebacker and then we did 3 stack linebacks. So we ran 3-3-5, right? So you have to be multiple, but again, we, all the fronts, all the base defenses we, I just talked about, all are different, but we all ran those same other defenses all mixed into the original ones that we kind of started out. So when you talk about the 3-3-5, you don't play 3, you probably, I would be interested to see how many times they play that versus 4-man front. 88% of the work week is spent communicating, so it's important your team does it well.

I love what AT&T has been doing, they're doing something amazing, they've launched an effort to equip 20,000 students with laptops, backpacks and school supplies. Seattle for example, they've provided 250 laptops and backpacks to kids who really needed them. No, you might think 250 kids, that's nice, but stuff to think for a second, the impact of what this could do for a community. Imagine 250 kids getting that kind of help, it's huge, it's not just happening in Seattle, AT&T is doing it all over the country, I'm just proud that AT&T is helping connect the next generation to a brighter future and that's pretty special. Connecting changes everything, AT&T. Do you go big 335 against a Illinois or Wisconsin when we play them or teams like that or do you play regular 335 or 425 or sometimes a 416 which is essentially time against a Indiana or something like that. So yes, 335 is what kind of is a tag to you as a coordinator, but you play every single front and you do every, you do so many things that you work to a four, three and all that. Now at the end of the day, they just need to play a 335 or whatever calls are played better. Well, you know what gaps you have to count for, and you have a way to account for all the gaps on any given play, so just go account for the gaps. The biggest thing is I saw is showing up ready to play, being individually motivated with the intent to go up there and win and dominate, right? And whether it's the stage, you know, or whatever you got stage fright, that's a personal choice because I will tell you this is like the way to work and look at, I will tell you that everybody goes through it. Everybody goes through it. I went through it. I was blessed enough to be playing with some bad dudes that I could hide, right? Well, and I will tell you, but they didn't let you hide. No, they didn't. No, they challenged you to come out the spotlight and eventually I worked my eventually middle through my first year starting my freshman year. I was ready to go, but when you when I first went out there, I was out there just trying to, you know, make a couple plays, not make a mistake. So not really, you know, but then I played my, but the harder I worked outside of practice, lesson, the anxiety, lesson, the stage for that's, that's just what helped, helped me. And so I just think the biggest thing is you got to show up ready to play. You got to go out there and do your assignment. You're supposed to do in the playbook. And then you got to do more and go be a good teammate and go football player. Period. Again, kind of like that's how football's been since it started, right? But that if you want to get to where you want to, whether it's when seven, eight games, when six game become bull eligible, first time and who knows how long and and and have a successful season, both individually and collectively as a team, you got to do, you got to, you got to do more and I will say this, don't be short side and say, well, I'm just going to go out there and make plays. I'm going to make play. I'm trying to make a play. No, no, no. We see, we've seen that before. We've seen a couple of years ago where the returner, you know, up in Illinois, filled it on a half yard. Nobody asked you to do that. What I'm asking you to do is do your job and then go play football. How do you go play football? That means when you're in meetings, you watch every play with intention that that play could be the play that you need to make. And that's the play that could affect you. That's the play that you got to think about. Even if you're only in a specialty package. So say like you're only in a like dime package or the nickel package or you're lending my or into block or whatever, right? Or whatever it is. So you got it. You got to understand. Okay. Well, I can't just look at it. If I'm only in short yard, if I'm short yard, say I'm in the short yardage package that I'm only going to worry about the five plays I watch in short yardage, I got to watch the whole tape because you, there's no, you can't dictate. You can't tell what the other team know what to run. So you got when you're in the tight end room, you got to watch whatever the starters are being talked to about so forth and so on. Because if I'm the, you know, I'll tell you an example. So if I'm a whole dropper, this is how scientific the game is or like how detailed the game's got to be. Right? This is about, this is talking about, this is, these are plays and when Coach Rule was talking about, I think one of the receivers made a block in the beginning of the season that he's not going to get any like credit for the run, right? I call it a hockey assist. We do that, you need those in like basketball, the creative guards that kick it out one more pass and you get it, you know, a strict cause of butt, negative three. So when you're a whole dropper, so a whole dropper is this. So let's just say, you know, there's a, there's one runner back, he's offset. And let's say for instance, we're, we'd say we were scheming on the back, right? So we're trying to be sneaky Austin trying to be sneaky. So the back is there, say the back starts in the dot, so if the dot would be at, or you know, right behind the quarterback, say he moves all set. So that means the other line backers scheming on him, that means he's blitzing to take him out of the pass, take, well, he's got to count for him in pass protection, but take him out of the pass for us. Right? So that means there's four receivers out there in any, in any form, it could be a tight end and receiver, it could be four really receivers or real, you know, realistic receivers. And whatever the common is, there's four guys that can go off the route because one's eliminated by our blitz. Right? Again, you're doing that, trying to get somebody one on one, get a win. But I'm the whole dropper, right? That back is away from me with two people out to the left with safety over there. They're man to man with over top help, okay, but they're way, far away from me because I'm on the other side of the, like I say, the other side of the ball that means from the center and just say I'm on the right. And I got two over here. I know I can't get much work over there, especially because I think we got another short hold drop over there. So that's his job. Now, if I, if I got a hold drop over here and I know my buddies over here got a little bit of stress. Okay. I'm literally checking for quarterback sneak going to the hole and hole doesn't mean I'm covering a hole in the grass in the middle of nowhere. Hole means I'm looking for work. I got to do. I got to get in the part, I got to get, I got, I'm in the mix into the party because you never know if I can get that quarterback to come off of the easy route, which is the easy route is because based on the mesh of the two over to my right, somebody's in a, in a not a advantageous position to cover him. And I help him and he has to come off of that initial say, like, under route or mesh route, what we call it, mesh route is you get two guys running up. One goes under the guy on the outside is pretty much stuck like Chuck, but then he runs into me, the quarterback comes off him, guess who gets the sack. Somebody blitzing or the rusher in it in and telling it is literally looking here and going there. And that's how quick a sack can happen. Well, you do that, that changes the complexity of the game. Now you have to be selfless and understand that you're going to get the person that got the sack is going to get the credit. What's going to happen in meetings or what should happen in meetings, I'm sure it does, is the play that you made gets highlighted probably as much and sometimes more. Those are the same plays when or if you have a chance to go to the next level, that the scouts put as much credit on as a sack because you are making football, they want winners. They want guys that are doing the things to win. It strikes me as being like a good cutter in basketball, right? You might not get the ball. If you've got it, you've flashed through the lane, occupied defenders, skip past three, you don't get credit for the assist, you don't get credit for the shot, but you occupied someone. Right. Right. Like dream on green pick, high pick and roll. Yeah. Right. And I mean, that's that's where you have to decide or I guess we would decide as a player group and everything, this we have got to take control of this. We have got to take control and own this three, three, five, four, two, five, four, three, whatever you want, because we got to make it work. We're playing it and we're in great position and calls. So anyways, that's the defense there. So we'll take a quick break, come back and I know we got questions about the offense. And then, you know, like the two, fast to two hours in radio, we'll put a bow on this bad boy and come back, Dave Foreman, Austin Foreman, we'll be right back.
