1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: I know you're not a stats guy, so I won't 2 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 1: quote your stats. But it was a very efficient, very 3 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: productive game. How proud are you of that after coming 4 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,559 Speaker 1: back from a tough game against Minnesota last week? 5 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was confident that, you know, we as a team, 6 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 2: we're going to bounce back and play better. I knew 7 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 2: that I was going to play better this week, and 8 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 2: you know, I just I like the game plan. I 9 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: felt like we got into a flow early and kind 10 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: of just controlled the game from from there and out 11 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 2: We're just super balanced, and yeah, it definitely. 12 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: Felt good op tempo, getting rid of the ball quick, 13 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: very very assertive, I thought, and getting that ball out. 14 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: How much of that game plan really suited what you 15 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: wanted to do today? 16 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, we were kind of interested to see what they 17 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,239 Speaker 2: were going to be, you know, playing on the on 18 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 2: the defensive side, especially with you know, some of their 19 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: guys out, and uh, you know, they played a lot 20 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 2: of soft zone and you know when you have guys 21 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: like Wandell and and Sleigh and Zay and and Gunner 22 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 2: and and and Belly and those guys just being able 23 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: to find windows in the zone. Uh, we just played 24 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 2: really efficient and uh, you know, I felt like, you know, 25 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: besides you know the sacks that you know, I just 26 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 2: kind of slipped on. I just felt like we were 27 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: always ahead of the sticks and just played sound football. 28 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: You ran for a couple of touchdowns, and I thought 29 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 1: you also protected yourself extremely well. To me, it was 30 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 1: another step forward. You well, I thought it was another 31 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: step forward in your maturity and development. How did you 32 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: see it? 33 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like, like I said, like, I'm going to 34 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 2: continue to learn. I'm gonna make mistakes here and there, 35 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna bounce back from them. I'm gonna have 36 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: some hits that I took early on that were you 37 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 2: know that I saw was kind of unnecessary, and then 38 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: you just make adjustments and uh, you know, at the 39 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 2: same time, you got to continue to just play your game. 40 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 2: You can't make somebody into somebody that they're not. So yeah, 41 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 2: I just felt like, uh, you know, definitely played smart 42 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: and you know, just got away from any of the 43 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: unnecessary stuff. 44 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: Got to ask you about Windell thousand yards receiving only 45 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: twelve Giants player to ever do that in history. Did 46 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: you know how close he was? Well, you're keeping track 47 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: because it looked like you were trying to feeding the 48 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: ball to get him there as much as you could. 49 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: That's my guy. That's my guy. I mean, I have 50 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: all the confidence in the world in him, and I 51 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 2: know that he can beat any coverage and uh, he's 52 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: just a guy that competes at such a high level. 53 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: So when you just have that trust with with guy 54 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: out there and you can make checks on plays, you know, 55 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: to get him on you know, little option routes and whatnot. 56 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: And I think that he's just a mismatch and you 57 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: got to see today like what he can do with 58 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: the ball in his hand and making people miss. But 59 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,839 Speaker 2: I'm just I'm just really happy for him because he's 60 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 2: a hell of a player and he definitely deserves it. 61 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: Giants Pick evaluated all options, including that quarterback. 62 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: Did you hear about that report. 63 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: For the game? 64 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: No? 65 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 3: I did not hearing that. What is that? 66 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: I guess how do you process. 67 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 2: Something like that? I think it's I'm gonna continue to 68 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 2: play my ball. I know I'm gonna be here for 69 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: a very long time. And uh, I'm just excited to, 70 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: you know, start winning more games and you know, turn 71 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: this place around and do my job and we have 72 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 2: a bright future. And you know, that was one thing 73 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: that I was just standing on the sideline and I'm 74 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 2: watching that do ball, I'm watching da ball, I'm watching 75 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: you know, Scott was here today. And when you just 76 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: think about like this, Rikie class, I think that, you know, 77 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 2: we have a really bright future and we're going to 78 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: be a big pivot and turn this thing around. 79 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 3: Jackson, you talked earlier in the week about being sick 80 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 3: of losing. 81 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, how long did nine weeks without would have win 82 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: feel like? 83 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 3: And what did this would like to have a long. 84 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 2: Room like this work change? Way too long? Definitely way 85 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 2: too long. We gotta start doing this more because definitely 86 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: feels a lot better. But you know, just looking for 87 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 2: looking forward to this playing fight with the guys for sure, 88 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: just to you know, kind of have that you know, 89 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 2: good energy with every single one of us and then 90 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: you know, just try to do our best to to 91 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: finish this this year out the right Jackson. 92 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 3: You heard all week people were talking outside the building 93 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 3: about this is the tank goal. Both teams are losing, 94 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: both teams want the number one pick, Both teams are 95 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 3: putting guys on I R. Some for some reasons, some 96 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 3: for other reasons. You're pretty new in this franchise. What 97 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: did you think of this week and did you ever 98 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 3: have any doubts that this franchise would approach the game 99 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 3: the way that it did? 100 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: No, I didn't. I felt like it was just noise. 101 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 2: Sometimes that just that just happens, you know, us not 102 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: really having the year that we've wanted, and people just 103 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: start talking. But from a player perspective, from a team perspective, 104 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: I felt like we were dialed all week and you know, 105 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 2: we needed to win, like, you know, just a morale, 106 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: just like some excitement. Finally, like we needed to win 107 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 2: and that's how we felt. What was it like in 108 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: this locker run? 109 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: I'll say it it was way too long, but just 110 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: what did it feel like? 111 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: I'm in this locker run feeling like finally, after two 112 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 2: and a half months, you can celebrate a win. I 113 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 2: mean it feels it just feels great. You definitely want 114 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 2: to just start doing this more for sure. 115 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 3: What was your favorite part. 116 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: About what you did today? 117 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: What you said? 118 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 2: Mm, I just felt like I was efficient, took what 119 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 2: the defense gave me, didn't try to force the ball 120 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: into unnecessary things when you know they're playing kind of 121 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 2: a deep shell and trying to keep everything in front 122 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 2: of them. And sometimes you know, as quarterbacks, we can 123 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 2: get a little impatient because you want to have a 124 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 2: big play. But I felt like I was just played deficient, 125 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: use my legs. I just felt like I was, you know, 126 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: in a rhythm. 127 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 3: Really is this the blend that you want that you 128 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: need to play with running the ball, throwing it? You know, 129 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: I mean maybe you want to have some more big 130 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 3: plays downfield, But you know what I'm saying. I mean, 131 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 3: you know, should he run, should't you run? Should he 132 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: get at it? It's not get it? I mean you 133 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 3: played and you just seem to play today. You ran 134 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 3: out of boundary, you needed to run out of boundary, 135 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 3: ran for first downs, you dove into the end zone. 136 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just what you are. 137 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that, you know, I think that I'm 138 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 2: a player that can do a lot of different things, 139 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 2: you know, throwing the ball. I think I'm a smart player. 140 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 2: I think I used my legs as an advantage. So 141 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 2: I just felt good to be back out there and 142 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: in a rhythm. And I thought the guys around me 143 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: played really well. The line blocked their ass off and 144 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: did a great job protecting me, giving me time. And 145 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: you know, the guys on the outside on the perimeter 146 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 2: were able to find the zone, make a great plays, 147 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 2: active catch break tackles, and yeah, I just felt like 148 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 2: greind a flock
