Taron Johnson: “Executing At A High Level” | Buffalo Bills

so what are you seeing with the Cardinal off uh I mean obviously the the quarterback uh Kyler Murray is an explosive player you know what I'm saying just making sure we have a uh kind of like a plan for him a rush plan for him cuz he makes a lot of plays with his legs off schedule plays making sure that we're Plastering our routes you know what I'm saying cuz he has that ability is it make a bit easier playing against Josh all summer and then want to get guy like pilot who is mobile as well uh for sure I mean having a a mobile quarterback in practice definitely helps us like get ready for the games you know what I'm saying so having him all all training camp definitely helps what else has helped you get ready for Tyler like you going back to the last time you played him do you recent stuff or sorry uh no no definitely I mean we look at his history you know what I'm saying and and how he plays the game and and I've played him you know what I'm saying so I remember how it was and how uh explosive how he scrambles and stuff like that what else like what do you remember specifically just like like how it helped you guys def um just specifically just making sure that we're affecting him by how we're rushing and even if we have a chance to sack him like just making sure we're coming to balance and not just running straight through because he makes a lot of people Miss what's it like preparing for a guy like Marvin Harrison Jr who you know has the potential to be explosive but you haven't seen him in an NFL game yet uh it's tough you know what I'm saying it's tough when rookies coming in um but we we watch everything you know what I'm saying so we've seen enough tape on them I guess you know what I'm saying not in a Cardinal's uniform but in college so just using that um for the best of our abilities ter home on Sunday what do you want to see out ofs Mafia man I already know like it's like it's going to be rocking you know what I'm saying so I'm super excited for that whole defense we we we're talking about it like we got to make sure that that we're on point with our stuff just because it's it's so hard to communicate in our Stadium feel like a cardinal offense with a dual thre quarterback like Kyler M all the weapons that they have does it almost feel like to you guys like it's going to be a good gauge of where this defense is at after all the offseason has done a good test in this first week of the Season uh for sure I mean I'm this is NFL so it's like every every team would be a good test for us you know so I just feel like it's just the first game of the season so just it's going to be test but I think we're up for the challenge multiple tight end they do they like to do that what do you think about defending that element of their game uh just making sure that we're one stopping the Run um because I know that's what they're going to try to do um with the double tight ends just getting off those blocks and uh making plays and even in a pass game just not getting to you think in this run because they got tight ends on the field they got a tight ends that can that can catch the ball pretty well spoke this morning about you know getting ready to call the defense for his first time in that what have you seen this uh I say this all the time his energy you know what I'm saying his energy his juice and his passion for the game you know what I'm saying that that's something that I see literally 100% of the time so it's it's great when you have a de coordinator like that because he's just he's so into the game and he's going to be making sure that he's on his PS and q's you know what I'm saying doing the best that he can and that's great to have a deco coordinator life that Sean Sean mcder spoke on you taking a step as a leader what are some things that you've done kind of to do that as well uh just making sure that the guys come together you know what I'm saying especially with uh my DB group and even the uh the defense as a whole just making sure that that we're spending time together off the field you know what I'm saying and buffalo it's a great place to do that we all live around the corner from the from the from the stadium so it's like we could be together pretty much have dinners every week you know what I'm saying I feel like most places aren't aren't doing that for you guys on defense going week one of the Season playing team that they don't have film on you guys you guys don't really have much film on them what's kind of like the overall approach you're want to uh just using our fundamentals you know what I'm saying at the end of the day we got to do what we do and I feel like we do it well so just making sure we're playing uh executing at a high level is is probably the biggest thing and playing with that energy and juice
