00:00Cowboys new offensive coordinator Clayton Adams talking for the first time.

00:20Cut number one on blending his concepts with head coach Brian Schottenheimer.

00:23Yeah that's that's exactly where we're at is just trying to mesh what the vision

00:29of what he wants is because he's gonna call the plays and so I think it would

00:35be it would be dumb on my part to try to force a lot of things on that call sheet

00:39that he doesn't want to call or or he doesn't feel comfortable calling so I

00:43have not had a major background with him. I had talked football with him in the

00:47past and you know I had known him a little bit but we're really excited I'm

00:51very excited to work with him and just to continue to learn each other a little

00:55bit and I think that that's always going to be a process of you know you're we're

00:59all molded a little bit by our experiences and so there's gonna be you

01:04know we're gonna get out into some practices and talk through some things

01:07and I'm gonna see some things differently he's gonna see some things

01:10differently and well it's gonna be a growing process you know you get into

01:14games and you have to have those same type of experiences both good and

01:17molded by the experience of the practices is what I really like about

01:21that cut because I feel like Schottenheimer is bringing in Adams for

01:27his expertise and Adams is doing a nice job not usurping the coach or saying

01:31yeah it's good we're gonna do it my way he said he's the head coach but we're

01:35gonna get together and troubleshoot these things and come to an agreement on

01:38what he wants to call but you want Adams to be have a huge influence on this

01:44scheme don't you we'll check absolutely and I it was interesting when I was

01:48reading about the Eagles and some of their offensive players talking about

01:51what they want their next OC and they talked about the communication and one

01:55thing that they did like about Kellen maybe Kellen learned and grew from his

01:58time with the Cowboys and realized the importance of like okay if my players

02:03are interjecting and they see something they want this they like a certain play

02:06here incorporating all of those ideas I mean we talk all the time about coaches

02:11being stubborn set in their ways my way or the highway I think now and I think a

02:16big reason why you saw the Cowboys offense flourish a couple years ago

02:19Dak and CD's visions were heard maybe a lot of that had to do with Brian

02:23Schottenheimer being a common you know middleman there in that communication

02:26and hopefully Clayton Adams can take that to another level
