The last couple of practices, all we've been doing is a lot of defensive things. We've been going over some drills that make all of us have to communicate.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
At my restaurants, we have training drills before every meal. We talk about what we did yesterday that was great and what we can improve today.
I think that's part of building your team is trying to anticipate where your team is going and to a certain extent where, especially defensively because you have to react to what they put on the field. Defensively you have to be able to defend those things.
Honestly, I always told my coaches my whole career - we'll practice two-minute drills in practice, like, once a week and everything - I'm just like, 'Those are my favorite time of football.' I'm out there in total control, just getting everything lined up, getting everybody on the same page, and obviously, usually it's pass after pass after pass.
Just like any other game we're taking on we've got to prepare, prepare hard, mentally, physically. We've been practicing hard.
I'm a running coach and I am going to continue to run, but I would hope that we are better defensively.
Injuries are part of the game, but sometimes we can avoid them by just practicing our techniques.
There's a lot of learning that goes on based on the mistakes that we may make in practice, and our guys do a great job of trying to digest that information and be ready to go when we use it during the course of the game.
Everything is practice.
I have three Defensive Players of the Year. Only one other player has done that. But being a defensive lineman, it's hard to control the game.
Technique is everything and we play a contact sport.
