The Miami Dolphins issued a transcript of coach Adam Gase's press briefing on Thursday:
(quick first impressions of the first day of practice?) – "This is On the first day, it was good to cross one of the hottest days I've seen in the last two years, it was good to have it on the first day. All the rest after that, I'll probably be happy if there's some sort of breeze, so maybe we've been lucky for the last two years. "
(QB Ryan Tannehill has this knee 2.0, this model of it may be as good as ever?) – "I just think the experience, whether in our attack or just in general, playing the quarter in the NFL. that he gets, he takes something in. He is constantly learning.I think the receivers, the tight and the half and he – they have developed a good c himie in the spring and what they did during the summer. I do not know if the knee brace is something … It's not really something I'm thinking about. Eventually, he will probably have to start working in a different way than he used to do before. "
(You obviously know the quarterbacks, the life of the QB and the pressure that goes with it … it's just that it falls on the QB Ryan Tannehill and that he comes back and that he was expecting that he would just pick up where he had stopped and be the man?) – "I want to say that's why they are paid to do it. He knows the job description and understands the expectations and the pressure on the position. I do not think it's something that loses a lot of sleep. "
(Do you think that each training camp has its own style and atmosphere or is a training camp just a training camp?) – " That made. Every year, he felt a little different. Some of them could, maybe myself, be the third here … (It's a) different feeling when you're a coordinator or a position coach. Often, the attitude of the players can dictate how that feel is as good. It was really exciting to be with this group. The way these guys are attacking things, it's fun to be on the ground, and when guys make mistakes, they work to get better. "
(How much should we look into who works with starters on Day 1?) – " I would take your time on it. Right now, it's like we're done in the spring. Eventually, at all posts, we will try to get things moving and attract different groups, and try to get guys to have experience with Ryan (Tannehill). We have to find ways to do it because you never know what's going to happen. If someone breaks down, they must be ready to leave. You do not want it to be the first time that they have a representative with him. We will finally get to this point. This first week or two, we will try to have a good rhythm and we will experiment then. "
(And defensively?) – " It's the same thing. We're just trying to get the guys back in the loop. Then we will start to mix things up. We will not start moving things too early. We want guys to put things on tape, to see where we are, what adjustments we need to make, and then we will do them. "
(When an older player like WR Danny Amendola arrives, and you've had others in recent years, what are you looking for to say if, basically, they still have it? ) – "Really, it was our work in the offspring.In spring, you know where a guy is really in his career.At the present time, Danny looks like the same guy that we played against it, and for us, our older players, they do not look different from what we thought we'd get when we brought them in. I think Frank (Gore) is the guy that every time I look at him, you shake your head when you see him doing some of these cuts and the acceleration through the hole.The guy is ageless. "
(You are the coach and you see 30,000 things that we do not see, but is the success and failure of the team this year essentially dependent on QB Ryan Tannehill? – "I do not think it's for that reason. I think we have a lot of good things around him that can help us go where we try to improve each week. With him not there, there's obviously a drop, because he's going into the NFL, and it's better for him than not to be there.
(Can you win if quarterback Ryan Tannehill "(19459005)" Yes. "
(Were there guys in February and March that you challenged to reshape their bodies and 39, be in better shape where you saw results?) – "No. Nobody wants to test the elements here, whether you're new or you've been here for a while, you understand what you're going through in the training camp, the guys came back and they were in good shape when we had OTAs, now you add five weeks with Puloka Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Dave before that, so it helps. had five weeks off, now all of a sudden, you have to introduce yourself yesterday. "Guys, they do not take that chance."
(How would you describe the situation you have right now at the corner? from the street in front of CB Xavien Howard.) – "I think these guys are fighting, it's good to see Tony (Lippett) seems to be heading to where he was when he was healthy in 2016. We saw flashes in the spring, and I think there was a little recoil, trying to work through some of the pain and sometimes pain. He looked good today, I thought. It was good to see him make the transition and play ball.
(What did you think of last week when, for a few hours, you were a big national conversation about the national anthem?) – "It's a good thing that I do not do not watch TV and do not run on the Internet, I just wait to see what the NFL and the NFLPA are telling us and what's going on, in terms of their conversations. that we really start the games It seems that things are changing a lot. "
(Do you ever ever suspend a player for a knee?) – " I mean if anyone knew the current rules of the NFL, good luck to suspend somebody, because takes about 5000 things before anybody can be suspended by a club. "
(Do you think the problem is potentially divide for a team?) – "I do not know, you should interview 31 other teams, I do not know."
(Think do you think this could create divisions for this team?) – "I think our guys do a good job of communicating with each other. I think they do a good job when problems arise, they get together, they hammer (and) they talk to each other. These guys are not afraid to talk. They have done a good job in ensuring that as a group they discuss things. Not only that, there are … Other problems always occur during a season. I thought that last year we were not as good as we were the year before, when it came to the guys who were talking to each other and looking for each other. I think this group right now, it's a different group. These guys are not shy. They will not fear things. I like that they are able to do that and have open conversations. "
(So you think it's unrealistic for a player to be suspended for this?) – " I do not know. I'm just saying that other cases have occurred in the past, it's harder to suspend guys than everyone else realizes.
(This question was raised during your first year, I believe, as a head coach – a difficult challenge for you – it would not be something you would have expected at the time when you took the job.) – "It was not a challenge for me, I just go with what is said by the officials and at the same time, I communicate with our players and I give them the information I get, and I'll go from there. "
On Monday and when they will continue, how fast can you start forming concrete opinions about things you have not seen with pads?) – "What is happening today, Thursday? Friday, Saturday … Saturday we will have the upper hand, and we will make full pads I think Sunday or Monday .
(How fast can you gain things, from the point of view of knowledge, once they are in pads?) – "It picks up pretty well. You will understand who will want to be a little more aggressive. Some guys want to be aggressive and some guys avoid contact; but for the most part, unless you're a rookie, we saw most of these guys in the pads. We know how they will react to that. The recruits, you just want to see if what you saw at the university and on tape will be postponed. "
(You're pretty healthy right now, is not it, no one on the PUP list and I do not think is it just lucky or is it a testament for your people and the work the players do?) – "I think that has a lot to do with our players who use the resources they have. We have many people who always try to help these people, making sure that they stay healthy. Our players are very proactive, especially in positions where you run a lot and can have movements (muscular) and things like that. They are proactive. They make sure to use whatever resources they have in our building, and we hope we will follow the same trend.
(Is this a first or is it already happening for you where no guy was in PUP? Do you remember?) – "I do not know I'm going to check if you want me to do it. "
(With this heat wave, it seems to be a little faster than I'm used to. hydration?) – " The part of hydration, our guys are doing a good job.You can tell players to be annoyed sometimes because they are always (remembered) the day before about hydration, of 39, be consistent in what we do.When practicing, we monitor everyone.We check to see where we are with the heat.We have levels to say, "We are in this area, we might need to take a break, let's get everyone out of the sun and go back. "So, we always check to see if that brings us to a level where we're worried about anything. hose, that's when you see us pause "
(There is not a coach or player in the league today who says they're going to stink and What sense do you have of your team while you wait for this year's expectations?) – "I think our guys understand that when you get into a season, it's 0-0. It's the beauty of the NFL. It's like saying, "Hey, you have not done that for 15 years." Nobody really cares. It's a new beginning. It's the beauty of this league. When you go out, you never know which team, what personality they will take, what will be their characteristics, how will they handle adversity and that is when you have those teams where no one thinks would do anything thing and suddenly you talk about it in January.
