Speaker 1 (00:29):
What's good. Folks, welcome to another edition of the Cover
one Film Room, the show that gives you the hows
and the whys behind both the good and the bad
of the Buffalo Bills. I'm one of your two hosts,
Anthony Prohaska, joined as always by Eric Turner and Eric.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Man.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
I don't even what's going on in the film today.
I'm gonna let you take the floor right now.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
I'm gonna have a permigrant I'm gonna have a permigran
all show today.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
It's gonna be a fun show.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
You know, we have obviously some film, we have some
advanced metrics, but we have also Anthony, a very very
special guest.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yes, as you folks know, here we go over multitude
of positions, evaluation, aspects, individual players, sides of the ball.
For those of you who have been paying attention to
the channel the brand for a very long time, you
know how much Eric loves the linebacker position and how
much Eric enjoys the play of this particular linebacker. And so,

(01:21):
without further ado, we welcome to the show Buffalo Bill's linebacker,
fresh off of a brand new contract, very much well deserved.
Spirel Bernard joins us on the show. TV. Thank you
so much for taking the time. We appreciate the hell
out of you.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Welcome to the show, yea, sir, appreciate you guys, thank
you for having me on.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
Yeah, like we said, man, congrats on the contract. The
numbers are great. We're happier here for the long term future. Well,
right off the batman, all of our fans are wondering.
You got a new number too, not just a new
contract number, but a new number. What went behind you
changing numbers from forty three to eight?

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Yeah, you know, man, I was number twenty six all
through high school, was twenty six at Baylor, and then
we had a tradition where, you know, certain guys got
to get a single digit number, and that just meant
you know, it meant something within the program. And uh,
you know, I think I think when when the opportunity came,
you know, I didn't I didn't have an opportunity, you know,
my first few years to to get a single digit

(02:14):
once I got to the league. But you know, it's
something that that I've I've wanted for a while and
it's kind of just something personal that you know, represents
you know, growth, and you know what a new aspect
a new chapter of my of my career. You know,
I think that's that's, you know, the main the main thing.
And then also I'm I'm a huge Kobe Bryant fan,
so I think when when A yeah, when when A

(02:36):
was available, you know, I think that was just something
that that I wanted to do.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
That's awesome, man, that's good to hear. So we one
appreciate you joining us in the film room. As Anthony said,
we're gonna have you know, some fun here tonight. Let
me start off with a film room question. Man, when
you watch film, you know, where do your eyes go
when you first start watching film and maybe thinking about
it from your perspective of someone that maybe is just

(03:00):
starting out with watching film, and in that perspective, you know,
where do your eyes start?

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Where do you look?

Speaker 3 (03:05):
And I know, as you've watched film over the years
and even for us, like the more you watch it,
the more your process it just you just go through it.
So I know it's very difficult at times of verbalize,
but what little things do you look at when you
turn on the film to start watching film?

Speaker 2 (03:19):
For your point, yeah, I think the first thing, you know,
starting out the weeks like you said, it's a long
process to kind of get to where I'm at now,
and you know what I look for now. But I
think initially for me, I try to just run through
a few games and get a get a feel for
what they what they want to do, their mentality, who
they want to get the ball to. And then you know,

(03:39):
once I go from there, I kind of get into
more specifics. You know, I go into formations and you know,
down in distance and kind of have an idea of
you know, after a first and P and ten run,
you know, what's what's their second down pass game look like?
You know, if they're if they're running the ball early
on and they're not successful, do they get away from that?
Do they stay with that formation? Tendencies and keys and

(04:02):
you know what what formations are trying to tell us
how they're trying to hide them and you know, really
what they want to get to in certain situations. You know,
some teams, you know, they love three by one on
third down and all the route concepts that come off
of that. And you know, I think, I think I
go from there and then once I have a good
feel of you know, what they're trying to do and

(04:22):
who they want to get the ball to and where
they're trying to attack. You know, you can, you can
break down into more specifics and have a have a
better idea for you know, one or two plays a
game that that you know can can help you make
a make a play here and there.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Right, And that's what's interesting because the average fan probably
just watches the game from beginning to end. But as
a player and even as analysts like us, we break
it down into situations because football games are a multitude
of situations. As you said, you know, drive starters, third
and ten uh second and first and ten second and
ten base concepts. So so you break it down that way, right,
because you have to be efficient with your time when

(04:56):
you're watching film.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Yeah, for sure, you know, I think you know, after
or after Monday morning, you know, I'm basically all into situations.
Like I said, I'll watch a few games to start
off the week, but you know, after that it goes
either down in distance or by formation. For me, that's
that's where I spend most of my time. And then
you know, once I get later into the week, I'll
get more into you know, specifics of Okay, this player

(05:19):
is here in this formation, that's an indicator for this
route or this is who they want to get the
ball to in this formation, And you know, I think
that that helps me, you know, be prepared for whenever
I'm out I'm out there and I scan, I scan
the formation, or I understand the situation. You have a
you have an idea of what's what's coming, because sometimes
it can be it can be too much. You know,

(05:39):
there's a there's a lot going on, and you know,
you don't want to overload your brain or what you're
trying to get done. So I think I go into
it with a with an idea of you know, if
I get into a situation of third and five, you know,
I see a certain formation that I know these are
the top three concepts. I know, these are the you know,
I mean, these are the guys they want to get
the ball to. And you know, it helps me. It

(06:01):
helps me play a little bit faster and have a
have a little advantage when I'm out there and I'm
not just you know, kind of guessing.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Right and you know your position literally in the center
of all the action physically mentally, there's so much going on.
We've highlighted on the show a multitude times, plays that
you've made physically, but also plays that you've made cerebrally
because of how smart of a player you are. My
question for you is, if you're building a linebacker from scratch,
from the ground up, what's the most important skill set

(06:29):
piece or trait mentally or physically that you're giving them.
If you say he's a robot and you're uploading this
most important skill set piece or trait, what is it?

Speaker 2 (06:38):
Oh man, that's tough. I would say, I.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Know, I wanted to see what you're gonna say.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Yeah, I would say from my perspective, I would say
the ability to recognize patterns. That's obviously there's a there's
a baseline of like high speed like that type of
stuff that you have to have. But I think what
separates people is the ability to recognize patterns. And that

(07:04):
can be like I was talking about earlier formation tendencies.
That can be you know, this guy's eyes, if he's
looking a certain way, I know what that means or
what that's telling me. That can mean, you know, looking
at an offensive line if they're light, if they're heavy
in their stance. Looking at a quarterback, you know his
his his tendencies. I think if you can recognize patterns
and then implement that into you know, your job or

(07:25):
the situation that's at hand, then you know you're you're
playing the game at a at a different level than
everybody else.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
I love that.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Yeah, great answer, great answer. So, now, not just a
linebacker position, but what are some things that you know
you saw or you guys maybe talked about on defense
when it came to trends across the league on the
offensive side of the ball, whether it's just you know,
from the top down every team and how they're attacking
on the offensive side of the ball, or specifically things
that maybe you saw trends wise when it came to

(07:53):
offenses attacking the Bills defense.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yeah, man, it's it's interesting. I feel like we do
such a good job understanding how the game's going and
where kind of where the game's you know, trending to.
You know, previously, I feel like a lot of the
college game had like creeped into the NFL with the
spread offenses and you know, things like that throwing the
ball around the yard a little bit, and now it's
kind of going back the other way, where you know,

(08:16):
teams are getting a little heavier, you know, more direct
runs and then play action off of that and Max
Pro Max Pro stuff just to protect the quarterback and
give him a little bit more time. So I think
that was a that was a thing, especially this year
that you saw, you know, a lot of teams start
to start to transition into into that where you know,
they want to be a little bit more run focused

(08:38):
and controlling the game, especially against US. You know, you
if you if you go three and out or you're
turning the ball over and giving the ball back to Josh,
then you know you're kind of you're in for for
a long day. So I think I think we look
at it from our perspective more so than like all
the way around the league. I think teams really tried
to play a ball ball control game against US, which

(08:58):
you know, you have the m v P, that's kind
of what you what you have to do. But you know,
that was that was something that that we anticipated and
kind of understood what was was going to be going
to be the trend this year.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
One trend that we noticed on your side of the
ball and the defensive side of the ball were was
how the opposing teams were attacking you with quick game,
and that's not necessarily anything new because you guys, as
we talk about a lot, are an attack oriented up
the field, you know, penetrating style defense and try to
heat up quarterbacks when they passed. But it seemed like,
you know, there is a there were a lot of

(09:30):
big moments in the season where the opposing offenses went
to quick game to get the ball out of the
hands and into the hands of their playmakers. Now, what
are some things on the defensive side of the ball
that you, as a linebacker or Bobby Babbage as a
d C can do to you know, to minimize the
quick game of the opposing offense.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Yeah, I think it goes back into into situations you know,
first and ten. You know, you have to win, like
you have to you have to win if you if
you give a an NFL offense second and five or less, like,
there's just gonna be ahead of the sticks, ahead of
the ahead of the change the whole game. And that's
that's not really where you want to live. So for us,
I think it it turns into you know, playing a
little bit more man, a little bit more match coverage,

(10:11):
and then like you said, pressuring pressure in the quarterback
whether that's with four or with five, and sometimes you know,
with six if we have to. But I think just
making them feel uncomfortable, and you know, that's that's part
of what the quick game is, to make them stay
comfortable and stay on track and to stay ahead of
the chains. And you know, for us, I think if
if we if we do a good job on first down,

(10:34):
you know, it kind of eliminates the possibility of quick game,
you know, second and third down. Yeah, exactly, So I
think that's that's kind of where you know, we we
saw we saw a lot of that this year. I
think that's where you know, we take. The next step is,
you know, we win, we win more first downs, and
then we we tighten it up in the back end
a little bit and then you know, it gives us
a little bit a little bit more time upfront to

(10:55):
get to the quarterback.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
You had a smile and ear to ear with that answer,
because so much of what we've talked about on the
show this offseason was, you know, just we've kind of
generally spoken about is just the Bills defense doing more
things to kind of restrict or constrict the airspace. Whether
that means man, whether it means press, whether it means
more match like doing things to take away that leeway
that offenses have the opportunity to and then you pairing

(11:17):
it with that kind of early down, first down aspect
and making sure they kind of stay off schedule while
maintaining the on schedule aspect.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
For the D.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
Yeah, that had a smile from ear to ear. I
got another question for you, you know, talking about trends
and kind of piggyback and off of what you and
Eric just spoke about. Motion is something that we've seen
creep into every offense in a multitude of ways, run game,
pass game, leverage stuff, misdirection, eye candy, or tying it
into different layers and concepts to change the picture for offenses.

(11:48):
Is there a specific aspect of motion that you think
gives defenses the most trouble today in the NFL, Like
it could be the speed of it, or the timing
with the snap, or if it's tied to certain run
concepts or out of certain looks. Is there any you
know against specific aspect of motion that you think is
defense is the most trouble.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah. I would say I would say probably the speed
of the motion because sometimes you know in our in
our system. How we how we handle motion is determined
by the speed of the receiver. You know, if it's
a jet motion or if it's a we call it
a reset. You know, where he's going across and then
setting back up and it's creating a new formation. So
I think that's a that's an area I think. You know,

(12:29):
Miami does a really good job with motion. You know,
any anybody coming from that tree, Miami, San Francisco, those
guys they do, they do a really good job. You know,
we played a lot of teams that motion are real
motion heavy, and you know you have to be I
think the thing that's that's so tough is everybody has
to be on the same page, and it happens so
fast that you've got to see it the same way,
and you've got to understand, like, okay, if we see

(12:51):
this as a jet motion, everybody sees it as a
jet motion, and what's our adjustment off of that?

Speaker 3 (12:55):
Right?

Speaker 2 (12:55):
And you know that's that's honestly where we spend a
lot of our time together, especially as a back seven,
watching you know, certain certain games and cut ups of
watching you know the motions and how they're how they're
doing it. Just to see, you know, how we handle
it and how we see it just overall on the
same page, because you know, there's there's instances where the
whole coverage will change, your run fits will change, you know,

(13:17):
everything revolving around the defensive call will change based on
based on emotion. And you know, offenses know that, which
is why they do it. Yeah, So it's it's it's fun.
It's a it's a challenge to be able to yeah,
exactly exactly, So it's it's fun. You know, that's that's
a tough part of the game. But you know, I
feel like we have a good system that you know,
we can we can categorize each one and everybody understands,

(13:39):
you know, where where their job is.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
I love that response of you know how the speed
and tempo of that motion really determines a lot. And
that's a great point because sometimes, as we'll see in
some of this film, sometimes that eye candy, that jet
action across across the field is really just to get
you guys that have to adjust on this step, not
necessarily to get in to a certain pass concept. So
a lot of times it's just testing your run gap

(14:04):
integrity posts snap because obviously with a one gap system,
like you guys, run that little motion, that little shift
can change responsibilities not just in the past game.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
But also in the run game for sure.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
All right, Anthony Tore, are you ready to get into
some film here?

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Let's do it.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
I guess all.

Speaker 3 (14:22):
Right, So we got four plays here, guys. This is
a first play from the the Broncos game. And this
is one of those plays that really it's I'm sure
for us it did. It started in the film room.
It started with film study and Marvin Mims wide receiver
in the backfield, and a lot of times going into
a game trail talk to us about how there are

(14:42):
certain checks and alerts. Hey, this guy's in this position
or a this alignment. You're either starring him like you
used to guys, used to do with Tyreek Hill a bunch.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
But you see mems in the backfield.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
From our starty, we knew I'm sure you did as well,
that that really spoke to a certain you know, certain
percentage of players are certain the Broncos ran.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Yeah, no, exactly, you know you hit it. I think
you see Sewell back there pointed out first, and then
you know we understood that, you know, in this formation
or typically a traditional four x one formation. They were
a heavy, heavy screen team and you know, the situation
matched up. I think it was second and second in medium,

(15:23):
you know, trying to get it early or easy first
down or you know short third down. But you know,
Seuell did a good job of pointing it out. We
made adjustment on the back end with Matt to to
you know, take care of the of the front and
then me and Tarn and CB I think is up top.
You know, we talked and basically put this in, put
us put ourselves in man, so we're basically playing two

(15:45):
man up top instead of instead of traditional quarters like
like we were initially going to be playing. So that
allows that allows me off this motion to to really
go in and attach and and take this this receiver
and it kind of takes off the out the screen game.
And you know that was an adjustment that we had made,
you know, early on in the week and something that
we had talked about. So you see you see t

(16:07):
giving a signal right there to the safety and then
once we realized the formation with with obviously MEM's in
the backfield, you know, we we adjust the coverage so
it goes Yeah, it goes pretty quick. You know, we
slide the front over because we know the run, the
run strength is obviously going to the opposite side, and
then you know, you'll see you'll see tern you know,

(16:29):
right there, we switch it. We switched the call. Yep,
I love it, So we switch it, switch it to
two men. Basically on this side, I'm still playing, still
playing quarters up top. And then once you know, once
he once he jets across, I'm basically taking him as
as my man.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
So he is the number three and your guy coming
that side.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
Out of exactly, yep, exactly.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
I feel like display, you know, torell Off, the last
question I asked you in regards to the motion, one
of the pieces you talked about was just every making
the defense happen to be on the same page. And
I feel like this is this play is such a
I mean, there's so many good examples of it. But
the level of communication here, like you mentioned Sewell calling
out and you see Rap communicating with Rasoul. Obviously you're
doing your air traffic controller stuff, got Milano communicating, Hamling tearing,

(17:13):
like everybody within an instant communicating, recognizing everything. How how
is that really instilled in you? Guys, because even when
you guys have had injuries on the defensive side of
the ball, you see a lot of like the second guys,
the third guys that are coming and you're still seeing
levels of communication and recognition. How is that that built
within the defense? Is it purely from rapport repetitions or

(17:36):
something specifically like you guys do because you're such a
well communicated, on the same page type of defense pre
snap with all this stuff going on.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Yeah, I think it starts honestly with Bobby and coach McDermott.
You know, they do a great job of forcing us
to communicate and over communicate during you know, walkthroughs OTA's
training camp preseason all the way up to the season.
You know, we do we do so much communication just
to make sure that everybody's on the same page and
we're all seeing it the same way, and you know,
it comes to life and I think you know it

(18:06):
puts It puts other people at ease. When you know
I'm saying something, or Matt sam something, or you know
you have tearing and they're talking. You got both the
safeties back there communicating. I think it it just it
eases everybody and everybody knows that we're all we're all
on the same page, and you know, we're getting we're
getting our jobs done. And I think that's where that's
where that part just comes in, and you know, allows

(18:27):
us to play so much faster because you're not you're
not second guessing, and you're not you're not hesitating because
you know, I know what I'm doing, you know what
you're doing, and everybody's kind of accountable for their for
their job.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
And what fans need to realize too, is that you
guys are on defense here at home in a playoff game,
so you could barely hear anything. So that's why you
see so much communication verbal and nonverbal hand signals and
whatnot prior to the snap. And how important, as Freel said,
that you have to be on the same page and
then not just you know what you're seeing on the field,
but also just even the communication signals and and all

(19:00):
the different checks that maybe you guys installed in the
game plane, like that is all happening on the field
when you know you have thousands and thousands of Bill's
Mafia going nuts and that crowd is just going is
in a ruckus at this moment?

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Yeah, No, for sure, that's you know, that's another thing
that we practice is the handswer ones because like you said,
at home, it's like it's it's toughest for us, honestly,
you know, you can't hear you can't hear anything. So
we have we have signals for every piece of communication
that we need to make. And you know, we all
we all study the same stuff and you know that
goes into into the meetings that we have together, just

(19:32):
as the players, you know, creating certain signals and changing
it up week to week just so we know we
know what we're talking about. And you know, we don't
put the same thing on tape too many times.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Absolutely. Now we're gonna flash back to week one and
talk about some of the pre to post that processing
in the run game. You mentioned the motion earlier in
this episode and how that that motion can change things
in the run and pass game. This is from the Cardinals.
They have a a split zone type run called and
so I want you to walk us through the stuff

(20:04):
from pre to POSTNAT again, maybe what you saw in
film during the week, Maybe how offenses typically like to
attack you, specifically with the alignment, and you talked about
formations and how important that is to study prior to
a game. The alignment of this tight end right here,
sometimes called a sniffer, sometimes just an offline tight end,
because in many ways that can unlock where the play

(20:25):
is going or what type of concept you're going to see.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
Yeah, for sure, you know, I think they started out
you know FIB here they're in a two x two set,
so we know, you know, teams that start out FIB
you know they're not they're not typically staying.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
In formation into the boundary.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Yeah, exactly exactly. The passing strength is into the boundary,
and we know they're typically not going to not going
to stay that way, so we know emotions probably coming.
And like you said, man, it's a lot of it
is just eye candy. You know, they know they know
that we have certain gaps and certain responsibilities, so they
try to get you to move and then you know,
they try to hide the tight end and you know,
create a new gap with him coming across the line.

(21:00):
But like I said, man, Bobby and coach McDermott do
such a good job of communicating you know, the formations
and threats by formation, and you know this is this
is a common a common run and a common theme
that you know, offenses have been running for a long time.
You know, the Cardinals did a good job of kind
of trying to hide him in there where he looks
a little bit, a little bit tighter and not we

(21:22):
call it a highway position, not as much in a
relay where he's gonna possibly go back. But you know,
anytime we get we get a tight end in a
in a position like this, we want to point it out.
And you see me and Dorian and Tearing all all
pointing at it. So once, you know, once we once
we get our run pass keys and we see him
coming back across, you know, our gaps change. So I'm
initially going from a solo A gap player to off

(21:45):
this off this jet or a solo B gap player
off the jet bump into the A gap, and then
once the tight end hawks back across and relays, then
it changes my gap back to the to the B gap.
And you know, I think another thing is understanding the blocking.
So they're they're going heavy on the doubles, and you
got to know who's coming off on you, and you
got to know who's who's blocking you, and so you know,

(22:07):
I know those two are responsible for me. So if
I stayed in this a gap, I know the center
is probably coming off, and then if I go to
the big gap, you know, seventy six is probably supposed
to come off. So luckily, you know, we got them.
We got them a little confused and was able to
you know, get all the way around there and ended
up you know, dipping under it and getting in on
a tackle.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah, you trigger so fast that when that center comes off,
you're already kind of half a step by them already,
and like you said, it's just kind of a dip
and rip through that shoulder. Talk about I guess, you know,
since this being like kind of that split full run.
But you know, gap scheme runs are becoming more in
vogue nowadays, like kind of shifting a bit away from
more zone runs. Just talk about that, whether it's you know,

(22:46):
get to traditional gap scheme runs like power encounter and
all that kind of stuff, or if it's you know,
split zone whatever, just the idea of changing gaps, adding
and removing on each side and what that. You know,
you spoke on in a little here with you know
what you were initially as you know what app you
were in that he got bumped over and then your
movements to another. Just talk about that coordinated dance, because
I feel like that's a that's a big thing that

(23:06):
I feel like a lot of the casual fan dooorm
understand how scientific runnerships are and what changing gaps on
the front and back side can do.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Yeah, No, for sure, it's you know, that's that's one
of the toughest things that we have to do is
to understand, you know, how to fit every single run
out of every single defense. And you know, this one's
a little bit more simple because you're just changing one gap.
You know, you're bumping from me. I'm bumping from the
B gap to the A gap and then back to
the B gap. But you know, if this was counter
for to say, you know, it'll change two gaps. So

(23:35):
if this guard was to pool with eighty five coming
back across, yeah, you know, that would change completely everything
that I have and everything that Dorian's doing. Where Terran
has to fit. So you got to you gotta be
able to key really fast and anticipate and then you know,
once you once your keys tell you what to do,
you got to play play fast and trigger and you know,
like that's this is this is what what's so good

(23:56):
about Tarran too is you know, he's obviously elite in
the passing game, but I don't know if he gets
enough credit for how how good he is in the
run game as well. Yes he is. He is one
of the best, the best nickels in in in the
run game in my opinion. You know, he does everything
everything well. He knows all the run schemes, he knows
all the all the formation tendencies, and you know where

(24:18):
to fit. You know, pretty much every time any any.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
Run is leverage of blocks like there exactly.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
So he gets, Yeah, he gets He gets cracked a
lot just from the outside because he's kind of the
free hitter a lot of the time, so they'll use
the receiver a tight end to crack him. And you know,
he's been he's been doing it for a long time,
so he knows, he knows, you know, when that's coming
and who's supposed to block him. So he's he's uh,
you know, elite to say, to say the least, that's.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
A great setup because a very similar play here from
the Niners. But I wanting to talk about on this one,
not just you know, your play, but everyone's one eleventh
and how the Niners. They're running a similar type play,
but it really more unfolds kind of like Anthony was
talking about, more like a gap run becauld. You have
that tight end coming across the formation, but you have
hushak also coming across the formation quickly.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
But also the change in the alignment.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
You have the quarterback party you know in the in
the on the dot with the running back behind them
in a pistol look, and how that maybe can change
things maybe from a run fit perspective.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Yeah, for sure. You know, like you said, they're starting
on a three by one look, I think we're in cover.
We're in a traditional cover three look here with t
Rap coming down, so I'm playing the C gap. You know,
Matt's initially in the A gap and then you've got
t Rap coming down in the B gap. You know,
the fullback jets across, which is going to change our
alignments initially and our gap responsibility. But you know, like
I said, eighty five, still Kittle here, He's still in

(25:41):
that in that relay look, so our keys are technically
still on him. So you could see, you know, t
Raps looking there and Matt's looking there. I'm looking there,
and you know, once he moves and I see it's
it's run. You know, you trigger and get to the
next gap. So I'm Solo A going down to Solo B,
and like I said, you got to know who's who's
coming to block you. So I think that's the center
he's checking for movement by Ed because we run, we

(26:03):
run a lot of a lot of strong side pressure.
So instead of staying heavier on the doubles, they're singling
and then checking for for movement and then trying to
climb up. And you know, luckily for us it works
out to where I'm moving the opposite direction of where
he's checking. So you know I can try to get
to beat him to the spot and kind of rip
underneath his block and kind of beat beat him, like
I said, to the spot. But you know, you see

(26:24):
Terren coming all the way from the outside again too
to replace that B gap, and you know it kind
of puts puts the back in the buy and he
doesn't he doesn't that either, right, Yeah, not at all,
not at all. You know, he does a he does
a great job. And then you see I think that's
Ed right there at the three tech, you know, taking
his guy and knocking him back. You see Greg taking
on too, and you know this is really just a

(26:46):
good run fit all the way across the board. You know,
guys doing their one eleventh and you know, fitting the gaps,
and you know when we're gapped out like that, there's
there's nowhere, there's nowhere really to run.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
Yeah, and that's so important with again to tie back
the thing to when people are kind of watching on Sundays,
I think so much of it. People just think, oh, well,
you know, your responsibility for any player is on the run,
go make the tackle. And it's not necessarily that you
have to be in your gap. You have to have
your responsibility because what one player, two three, our guys
are making plays off of what you are doing, and

(27:17):
you have to be sound responsible in your assignment. I
love you highlighting that, of course you two j just on.
You know obviously use check being that one of the
two kind of motion men here. But coming across, how
does and this is obviously tied to you know, film
study and what you're preparing for with San Francisco that week,
But how does the body type or the specific player
that's in motion kind of change anything for you as

(27:39):
far as keys or reads for example, if it's San Francisco,
say everybody was healthy, like you know, use check going
in that motion versus Debo or versus Juwan Jennings or
something like oh yeah pass card doing For the Ravens,
ye talk about how like you know that it's not
just the motion itself, but also how like the body
type or the type of player ties into what you

(27:59):
could be in anticipating or reading.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Yeah, for sure, you know, I think those are two
great examples. You know, specifically with with San Francisco. Here,
you know, in certain in certain instances, if it's a
if it's a wide receiver body, a lot of the
times we won't move because the technical run strength isn't changing,
so your your run responsibility could stay the same. If
it's if it's somebody we deem not changing the run
strength technically, as opposed to here this is you check,

(28:25):
which is he's their fullback obviously changing the run strength.
And you know the hitting point a little bit, so
you know, like you you hit on you know, you
you you bump and change gaps with guys like that.
And you know, similarly to the Ravens, you know they
have recard and you know some of their other tight
ends are more you know, blocking run blocking tight ends
as opposed to you know, likely and Andrews are more

(28:47):
pass catching tight ends. So all of that changes, you know,
you go throughout the week of Okay, is this guy
considered a clone which is a fullback or tight end
or are we considering him as a as a pass
catching receiver and that will that determine if you know,
we're changing gaps, if our past responsibility changes, if our
run gaps are changing. And that's what you know, that's

(29:07):
where we spend a lot of our time is understanding
you know, the position and the body of what the
offense is trying to get done.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
Awesome stuff. I love the details in that, whether it
was the motion in the beginning and the pacing to
the motion, but also the body types and obviously it's
it's also game plan specific too, as you said, specific
teams have certain players that execute certain roles and so
again film study becomes incredibly important, as does You've mentioned
Babbage and the staff. It really trickles down from them,

(29:37):
so the the pro personnel and pro scouting department to
the coaching staff and all the way down top to bottom.
A lot of different parts have to play into what
happens on a specific play, just like you saw in
that Niners game. So moving on to more of the
passing game, and you know, probably one of our favorite
plays from last year, your interception against the Texans. I

(29:59):
want you to talk us through again, scheme, technique, assignment,
what you saw on film to Rob Stroud of this
display here, just really really good play, really heavy interception
right in front of digs against the Texans.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Yeah. Man, So it kind of goes back initially starting off.
You know what we had talked about with the motions.
You know, I think this is tanke Dell initially motioning
across the formation and then returning back. So we don't
we don't change our alignments, we don't change which gaps
we have. Initially we're in a quarter's look right here,
split safety quarters. Look they're under center, which you know
would typically tell you you know, it's a heavier run

(30:36):
formation with this tight end, especially in the core reduced formation.
You know, this could be possible toss crack outside zone,
split zone like you saw with the forty nine ers. Yeah,
but you know, specifically with the Texans is what we've
seen is they were they were running a lot of
a lot of dig routes and clearing out, clearing out
guys to hit to hit the dig route behind you.

(30:57):
And you know it's something we had talked about on
the sideline and something that we had seen, you know,
really all week, you know, trying to prepare for and
you know, just right here we're in a we're in
a quarters look. So I'm carrying the number three tight
end up the up the scene right now basically, and man,
once I feel this this running back, you know, create
the four strong look. I know I have Dorian in

(31:19):
my hip pocket basically, so I know he's going to overtake,
overtake this seam route by the tight end, and you know,
formation awareness, like we talked about earlier. You got Digs
at the number two receiver, you know, obviously their top
target guy. I think Nico got got you know, hurt
this game early on, so he's he's obviously their number
one guy right now in this in this set, and

(31:40):
you know you kind of see, I can I can
look through the tight end and I'm guarding the tight
end right now, but I'm looking through the tight end
and I can see Digs, you know, settling up and
getting ready to hit this dig route. So once I
once I feel Dorian kind of in my hip pocket,
I let the tight end go and you know, try
to undercut this route, and you know, you you fill
the space, and you know the timing of it all
you can you can kind of anticipate the ball. The

(32:02):
ball is about to be about to be thrown. So
right when I snap my head around, I'm trying to
just find the ball, not really worried about where where
STEP's at right now, just trying to get in that
window and hopefully, you know, get one. And you know,
he ended up throwing it, so ended up being in
the right spot.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
And what I find interesting about this guys too, is
you know the Patriots used to run this play a bunch.
So you get you get the pull right here, and
they would hit Gronk on this crosser and so I
think that is you know, coming from that Patriots tree
over there in Houston. But they want you one you
run the pass, They want you to really come up
and they would see behind you. But you did a

(32:39):
great job attaching to that tight end. But again, this
is what's great about zone coverages, and this is literally
the epitome of why zone can be so you know,
so crucial in these types of situations where you took away,
in my opinion, one of the first options to that deep
that crossing route by Schultz. But then the number two
you also took that away. That's why this play is
so fantastic.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, this is what we would call it's it's called counterpass. Technically,
you know they're running a counter action, making it look
like like it's a run, but you know, you can
feel you can fill the offensive lines a little soft
in protection, so you know, we me and Dorian don't
really step up too much. And then like you said,
you know, I see this tight end coming coming across,
so I'm really I'm really locked into him. I see

(33:21):
after off the counteraction, I already know it's for strong,
so I already know the backs to me. So once
I feel Dorian and you know he's yelling at me
right here that he's there for me, you know I
can I can pass him off. And you know, like
right there, you can see my eyes are already on
you know my next threat, which is is going to
be this dig route coming coming from Steph.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
This play is such another good example of Cain, like
the mental side of it of football in that chess match,
and for you in particularly again even just starting like
what you highlighted there with the offensive line, you kind
of see like high hats initially, so like, okay, it's
a little softer like seeing the play action they pull
that guard for the flash of color, but still in
past pro you're acknowledging what Tank Dell was doing. And
then also just again it into tendency like and you

(34:02):
know you mentioned Nico Collins being out so much of
Stroud and Nico Collins as in breakers in breakers in
breakers of some kind, and then even without him, like
you noted that offense loves to live in between the numbers,
and so there's so many things coming together, like for
this one play to happen, it takes the film study,
the knowledge, the tendency knowledge, the king diagnosing here, but

(34:25):
then also the support from Dorian him seeing that on
the same page as you. It just highlights that that
chess piece and how as physical and as violent as
football is, so much of it is mental and so
much of it is scientific, and so much of that
is what made you successful on this play.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yeah, man, Like like you said, it's it's so much
of a mental game and understanding tendencies and you know
kind of what offenses want to do to attack you.
And you know, like you said, without without Dorian there,
you know, I'm I'm probably still running with with the
tight end. If I don't hear him, I.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Would, I say, that was my next question. If you
don't hear that, you are you staying with schultzz He
goes across.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
Yeah, if I don't. If I don't hear Dorian, if
I don't hear Dorian with me saying push with the
running back coming to my side, you know, I I'm
technically responsible for the tight end, so you know, having him,
having him, you know, see it the same way and
push me off of that guy, it allows me, you know,
to to kind of rope it up into that next window. Beautiful.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
Yeah, and the whole push call, it's something we've broken
down several times.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
Yeah, so that your tape at Baylor too, That was
one of the things led.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
Yes, And what he means my push is the running
back after the run action. He actually, as he talked about,
kind of goes into a four by one set three
receivers out wide and then the running back becomes a
fourth guy. So Dorian pushed him and let Bernard know, Hey,
the running backs go on your side, push out to
the next available target in your zone.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Exactly. Yep, exactly.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Oh man. So many moving pieces like a chain reaction
or like a and but again that goes to the
like if somebody's off, if someone's not doing similar to
kind of what we talk about from a runfit perspective.
If somebody's off in there in their one eleventh, there's
that communication breakdown that creates avoid and that's obviously what
offensive trying to do defenses, but I think that's also

(36:10):
what again from how the fans are watching on Sundays,
I think that's how a lot of times in the
past game someone gets open and a completion happens, and
they see the guy nearest to them, they're like, oh,
that guy got burned. It's like, no, that's not necessarily
how it works that there's so many layers to responsibility, assignment,
and then how it's all packaged together with formation, tendency
and then the pre to post snap change. Oh man,

(36:32):
good stuff.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
Before we get you out of here, TV, let me
ask you a couple of quick you know, one header questions.
You know, you've admitted some of the issues that you
had this year, this season, You're very honest, self reflective
about it. So what are some things that you're working
on this offseason, whether it's physically and mentally to get
your game to another level, a level that we haven't
seen as Bills fans.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah, I think for me, you know, it goes back
to doing my job first and then you know, setting
other people up in in position to make plays. You know,
I feel like, you know, early on in the season,
I was I was trying to do too much and
you know, trying to play outside of myself and you know,
do just just just too much. And I think, you know,
I got I got more comfortable as the year went on.
Obviously dealt with some injuries and stuff here and there,

(37:16):
but you know, I feel like I got I got
a lot more comfortable as as the seeing season went on,
with you know, my job and my responsibility and what
you know, the team and the defense needed for me,
and you know, I'm looking I'm looking to build on that.
I think, you know, taking my game to the next level.
You know, in the passing game, I think more so
just communication pre and posting that. You know, that's always

(37:39):
something that's that's gonna be huge just for my position.
And then in the run game, I think, you know,
getting back to using my hands like like I had previously.
I think there were certain instances where you know, I
was I was, you know, using a shoulder or not
really you know, physically using my hands as much as
I could have. And you know, I feel like when
I do that, I play so much better. So I

(37:59):
know that's that's another another spot that I that I
want to work on. But yeah, man, I'm I'm excited.
I'm excited to get back to work and to get
there and start and start working on these things. You know,
you get you get a whole off season to kind
of watch watch yourself from the last year and and
find things that you want to you know, fine tune
and get better at and you know, areas that you
can make more plays and do a little bit more.

(38:19):
And I think that's that's what's exciting for me. You know,
I get I get an opportunity to to really study
myself and study other guys around the league, and then
you know, try to put it put it into practice.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
You talked about your use of hands and how important
that is to get back to that now. One thing
that I always like harp on on social media is
that linebackers nowadays are different. It's not a stack and
shed thumper league anymore. And the ability to beat blocks.
There are multiple multitude of ways to do that. So
can you talk about, you know, the different ways that
linebackers such as yourself, avoid blocks, you know, escape from blocks,

(38:53):
use your hands to to stack and shed, like, the
different ways that you can win as a linebacker versus
an offensive lineman.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
Yeah, there's a ton of ways. You know, we work
on a ton of things. I think. You know, obviously,
the first way is to you know, put your hands
in somebody's chest and get them off of you. You know,
that's kind of more of the old school downhill thumper type,
which you know, you have to do it sometimes, and
that's that's you know, you you you just have to.
But I think something that works for me a lot
is I try to set up guys to where you know,

(39:20):
they don't really know where I'm going until I decide.
And you know, when I do that, I feel like
it's it's almost, you know, really similar to a pass
rush in a sense, you know, you use your your
hips to get out of the way and swipe or
you know, you saw it on I think the San
Francisco clip, you know, dipping and ripping and you know,
just trying to get their hands off you. Because at
the end of the day, those guys are one hundred

(39:42):
pounds heavier than me and obviously a lot stronger. But
you know, there's there's certain ways that you know, I've
figured out throughout my career as being a smaller linebacker,
of ways I can avoid blocks and then you know,
when the time comes, you know, you you got to
put your hands on somebody too. So I think, you know,
having having you know, the ability to do both is
is what makes either one of those successful because you know,
they don't really know what to expect, and you know,

(40:03):
that's that's how I look at it, and I know
you know that's that's what they coach us. You know,
when when you can avoid it and make the play,
do it. And then when when you have to, you know,
get in there and kind of nut up a little bit,
you got to do that too.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
Yeah, you still got to be able to live in
both worlds too. Exactly agree with Obviously playing to you know,
the needs of every individual specific play. Last question for
you talk so much about film and film study and
all this stuff. How many if you want to quantify it,
you know, daily or weekly? How many hours a day
or hours a week in season do you think you're
you spend watching tape?

Speaker 2 (40:36):
Oh? Man, oh gosh. I would say I would probably
break it down daily. Daily, I'd probably say, are you
including meetings or you including just time? Yea on my
own okay, on my own, probably maybe three and a
half four hours a day just going through going through

(41:00):
certain things. Yeah, it's you know, there's always there's everything
that you can imagine to watch is available to watch,
and you know, it gets to a point where you know,
there's not there's too much information. But for me, I
like to have I like to be able to be
to see everything and once I see everything that I
can kind of break it down in my mind of
what what I need to take from it. But yeah,

(41:21):
it's it's it's a few hours a day, I think.
You know, you leave, you leave the meeting room and
get your treatment and stuff, and then you know, you
go in there and grind out a little bit with
with some of the guys, and then you know, once
once you get home, you know, for me, I get
I get my specific things that I need to watch
or that I feel like I need to watch. And
you know, I think Al does a great job the
linebacker's coach. He does a great job of you know,

(41:42):
creating files and folders for us that you know, pertain
to the linebackers specifically. So you know, that's that's kind
of where I live in there, and he does, like
like I said, he does a great job of of
giving us things that you know are going to help
us throughout the game. So yeah, I would say I
would say a few hours a day. Man. It's it's
fun though. You know, there's nothing like being able to
watch football and you know, study it, and you know,

(42:05):
I think the biggest thing is once you're able to
watch something and understand what's happening and then go and
make a play in the game, that just makes it,
you know, that much more fun to go and do
it for the next week. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
You know, from the moment I saw a picture of
you walking into the game with your notebook and iPad,
I knew you were the guy to have on this show.
I just knew it.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
He calls it out every time every Sunday when they
do the whole, like when the bills social media do
their whole like and they show like Town coming in
doing his finger guns, or like Mac Collins doing whatever
he was doing. Every week he calls out like, there's
Bernard's iPad. Ye see it? Right that moment on years ago.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
I was like, this guy is gonna be perfect in
the film room one day.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
That is hilarious. Actually, it's funny because I keep I
keep my iPad in my notebook with me just because
I like to review certain things. Once I get into
the locker room. You know, I'll watch I'll watch a
cut up that I wanted to watch throughout the week,
or you know, I'll go back and look at some
of my notes that I took Monday, you know at
two pm. Just something that that will click back and

(43:10):
you know, help me remember something before I go out there.
But it's funny, it's funny. You guys caught that. That's
that's hilarious.

Speaker 1 (43:16):
Yeah every week man, Yeah, hell yeah. This this has
been tremendously awesome for us. And like we said off air,
like we said to start, we sincerely appreciate you uh,
taking the time to join us and giving us a
little peak behind the curtain and into your mind of
how you play the game, what this defense looks like
with football. Is like you were awesome in every way,

(43:37):
shape or form. We appreciate the hell out of you,
and you know, we wish you the best of coming
in this off season, in this full season, and hopefully
we get to speak to you again at some point.
But we just yeah, we appreciate the time you took.
Thank you very much for sitting down last you.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
Yes, sir, and I appreciate you guys. I'll do I'll
do a great job. Like I said, you know, I
don't get to see everything, but I like I like
watching watching what y'all, what y'all do, and you know,
the breakdowns that you have y'all, y'all are y'all are special.
So I appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (44:02):
Thank you so much.

Speaker 1 (44:03):
TV. That means a lot. Thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Man.

Speaker 3 (44:05):
See just awesome stuff. Man, I mean I'm not kidding,
like you know. And as soon as we saw that
that that picture of him walking into the stadium, you know,
with his his notepad and his his iPad, I'm like,
oh yeah, this is gonna be fun because obviously it

(44:26):
was also during a time when we had a lot
of the Edmunds, you know, discussions, and like Terrelle Bernard
and the differences between those two guys and how they win.
As he's talked, he talked about, you know, guys win
in different ways, and guys have different strengths and weaknesses,
and and I feel like this staff obviously they've committed
to him long term. They this is what they've been

(44:48):
looking for. They've they've been looking for someone that can
win in multiple ways, but primarily as you you guys
can tell now from the shoulders up, that is something
that we've talked about from day one with with Elbernard,
and you got to see it firsthand.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Yeah, and this isn't too I hate bringing up his
name twice after you just brought it up. So this
isn't to knock Tremaine Edmunds mentally, and this isn't to
knock to Rel Bernard physically. But so much of what
we talked about, like you said, from the jump, from
watching Bernard's tape at Baylor, so much what we talked
about was how pro ready he was from the neck
up coming from that a random system and then the
uh I pulled it up from earlier, the quote right

(45:24):
in that rookie camp from Leslie Frasier speaking on to Elbernard.
He's one quote, he's one of those guys who can
take the classroom to the grass and he's just.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
The epitome of it. This film that's literally pitome of that.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Yeah, and that makes a huge difference, like all the
air traffic controller stuff, like, it's kind of funny that
we labeled that, but that's that's what he is. And
it goes a lot goes into it. And you hear
coaches now even talking about linebackers coming from college and
how and different analysts are talking about the lack of
like pro ready stuff from the mental side and how
much has to be taught and how that's delaying linebacker

(45:58):
development or delaying where you want it to take a linebacker.
And again, this isn't to knock Bernard in any other
way or any other linebacker anyway, but what he does,
he's so cerebral, and he's so smart, and so much
of what he does being in the right position, be
playing with the right leverage, whether it's in coverage or
against the run. It's because of how he sees the game,
how he prepares, how he studies it. And I mean, yeah,

(46:22):
if you know where the play is going before it's
going there, you don't have to run a four to
two or a four to three. You can get out
before anybody else has a chance to.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
You don't have to be big, you don't have to
have long arms again, you know, pre to posting that processing.
As you saw, whether it's in the run or the
past game, it starts with film study. It starts with
taking it from the meeting rooms to the field. And
he walked you through exactly what he saw on film
in the game during the week, and then how it
translated and showed up production wise on the field. And

(46:50):
as he said, that's like, that's got to be super
rewarding when you talk about the value of you know,
the time you put in the three and a half
to four hours of film outside of being at one
bills drive on your own to make plays on the field.

Speaker 1 (47:03):
Yeah, that ability to have your hard work payoff and
ward you in those moments. And he's done it since
he started coming into the league, Like we highlighted a
year after year him making these good plays, big plays
high leverage moment plays and you know, again all the
tied to what he's talked about in this episode and
how this went through. This was another tree And I know,
I know how excited you were. I knew when you were.

(47:25):
I was gonna say, like, normally I'm more of the
like emotional one, but I saw you cracking a ton
of smiles in this one. I was like, he's liking it. Yeah,
that was fantastic.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
That was one of my favorites. Again because of the
position he plays, but also the heady.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
The way he plays the game.

Speaker 3 (47:40):
So yeah, the football IQ And again as fans, not
just of the Bills, but as fans of the game,
there aren't many opportunities for us to see how smart
these players are. We see the production, we see the results,
but we don't see the why behind it. And he
was one of the best when it came to trans
and dictating it to us the fans, what he saw

(48:03):
and what went into the play.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
