How do you how do you expect Tyler Eiffert's absence to impact you guys, and how are you kind of working around that? Well, we've got you know, other guys have to come through and play, and we've probays have been in this situation, so we understand it, and uh, you know, we look forward to getting Tyler back very soon. Anything about the Jets jump out at you over there, you know from when you watch the preseason. Well, they've done a really good job of putting the football team together.

You know, most of the offensive guys who come different routes through different teams and so forth, But defensive guys are a lot of homegrown guys, and uh, they're very good players, athletic explosives, and they impressive to watch on tape. I know you're not watching, you know, just for an enjoyment. You're you're coaching the game. But when you when you get to have a matchup like a j. Gleen Vers Dorell Rivis, I mean, is there a part of you

that ever enjoys watching two grades go at it like that? Well, throughout been an exceptional player, you know, since he came into the league, which I guess was what oh seven oh eight, and uh, you know he's done such a you know, so consistent and such a great job and uh, you know, he's always fun to watch and uh he's a great lesson for young players to uh to really try and and and you know, mimic as a young cornerback and we've drafted a lot of young cornerbacks around here.

And how he plays his patients, his ability to work around the receiver, and you know, there's a lot of good things I learned from marmon. What sort of challenges does Brandon Marshall post for your guys secondary He's you know, he's such a uh, he's he's an imposing figure. He's a big person. Uh, he's very fluid, doesn't nice job of running and cutting and so forth. And obviously he's very strong and to catch. Obviously, the Jus defensive line is known as one of the strongest in the league.

What's the biggest challenge when you go up against unit, Well, they are the big, physical guys, and so you gotta be you know, you gotta be consistent. You gotta just you know, put on your hard hats, trap it down and go to work. And you know it's going to be an all days sucker each and every time you go play him. Is there a challenge preparing for a team like the Jets that you guys don't play as often. Well, I think they're very similar to you know, our division.

They're big, physical people and uh we've got to understand that. And um, you know, I think that's a physical football team, which with our division sets up. Pass Marvin, what have your impressions been from afar of Todd Bowls here? As he kind of navigates going from uh, you know, being a coordinator to to head coach. Something you you did a few moons are gonna I guess, well I've been God has done fantastic. Uh. You know they got off

to such a good start a year ago. Uh, he navigated a lot of tough situations a year ago and was able to get to keep the team focused and get off to a fan start. And you know, I know they didn't finish, you know, the last game and opportunity to make the playoffs. I know that didn't happen. But he stayed true to himself and true to the and and kept you know, the football team kept focused

all the way through. And uh, you know now they're on to the next you know they uh you know, you go through the thing with Ryan over the summer and no one, no one flinches, no one, you know, and you just get moving.
