1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: I mean personally, my first time in a real game,

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: obviously preseason, be in a real game going against him. Uh,

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 1: I mean you don't really look at it that way,

4
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 1: but just you know, one of the best coach, probably

5
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: the best coach of all time. You know, it's awesome

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: to to you know, to be on a field with him.

7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: He's a legend. So you know, you definitely have your respect,

8
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 1: but you're not. Your mindset is not, oh this Bill

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: Belichick on the other side. But when you break it

10
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: down and you and you talk about it out loud

11
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: and you think about it, you know, the greatest ever

12
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: do is sitting sitting on the other sideline.

13
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: So that's pretty dope to be on the same field as.

14
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 3: Have you ever been part of the team where you

15
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 3: had three different quarterbacks in a season?

16
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: Uh No, I don't think so. I think it was

17
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 2: my first.

18
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 3: Yep, what has this been like, especially adjusting to Tommy?

19
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: You know who's who's the younger.

20
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 3: I mean, the other two guys are at least veterans,

21
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 3: but this, you know, this is a rookie quarterback.

22
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: Obviously. Yeah.

23
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: I think for any rookie, Uh, every week, the game

24
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: slows down. I remember when I was a rookie I had.

25
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: You know, I was really lucky because Eli Manning, who

26
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,279
Speaker 1: was in like year whatever, so especially blitz pickups and whatever.

27
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: He would tell me what to do. I didn't have

28
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: to really think about it. But you can see that

29
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: the game is slowing down for him. The biggest saying

30
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: with him though, I just love the confidence in the

31
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: swaker he plays with. Uh kind of reminds me of

32
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: a trace in college. You kind of you know that.

33
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: That's the first thing I come to my mind when

34
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: I think of Tommy, and I'm happy for me and

35
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: playing played great last week. I've been playing great so

36
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: far and hopefully you can keep keep it going for us.

37
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 3: That's the mentality of this team right now.

38
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: You have you know, one more game here leading into

39
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: the back.

40
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean I feel like this has got

41
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: to be the latest bot week we've ever had. But

42
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 1: you know, everything we want to see out there, just

43
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: keep stacking them, taking one game at time and focus, say,

44
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: focus on his game.

45
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 2: We got a really good opponent against New England.

46
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: Obviously, you know the records is I think the same

47
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: as US three and eight, but similar to US, and

48
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: they've been a lot of games where it could easily

49
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: could easily be different.

50
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: So that's the NFL.

51
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: We know it's gonna be a great matchup against a

52
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: great team, and set on focus is doever you can

53
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: to come up with one.

54
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 3: Do you get a kick out of Tommy?

55
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 2: I love it? I love it? You like what are

56
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: the interactions? Like? Tom is my guy? My guy? But

57
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 2: I love it. I love the whole story line. I

58
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 2: love that.

59
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: You know, he's from Jersey, lives with his parents, He's

60
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: a starting quarterback in New York Giants.

61
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 2: Like that.

62
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: That whole thing is something that like I would do

63
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: with Madden. Uh, I would go and draft, like you know,

64
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: pick an undrafted guy and put on my team and

65
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 1: you know, just make him to a superstar. That's stuff

66
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 1: that I do in my spare time, while I've been

67
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 1: doing since I was a kid. So I love the

68
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: underdog story and stuff like that. I'm happy for him,

69
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: But he definitely doesn't carry that that mindset. He doesn't

70
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 1: walk around, Uh you know of an underdog. He's confident.

71
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, you wouldn't. You wouldn't think

72
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: that he's a rookie and uh, he's the starting quarterback

73
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: in New York Giants. You would think it's year five.

74
00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: He's been doing this for a very long time.

75
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: The way that he carries yourself and you can feel

76
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: in you can feel in the huddle. So I love it.

77
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm happy for him, and you know, as me, as

78
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: my job is as a leaders, you know, continue to

79
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: you know, stay on the side, help build his confidence

80
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: and help make place for him when the opportunity comes.

81
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 4: It's like, well, how about Tommy's including yourself confidence the

82
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 4: win last week, not his confidence, but the confidence the

83
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 4: listening guys having him off of humbling off.

84
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: The last week.

85
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's kind of you know, I kind of.

86
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: Said something similar to it after the game in the

87
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: locker room. This is the NFL.

88
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 2: You know, when when a guy gets in there, it's

89
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 2: not like, oh, can he does this? Can he do this?

90
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: And not like obviously like going wrong, his tears and like,

91
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: but he's he's here for reason and it's hard to

92
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: make it to this level. So when you're in the

93
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: locker room like this, we all understand how hard it

94
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: is to make it to the NFL. I think for

95
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: the you know, outside the outside world, they think it's

96
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: a lot easier.

97
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: So for us, we're not. We don't.

98
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: It's not like, oh, our confidence is growing him. Obviously,

99
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: you get a win confidence of teams as girls, but

100
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: it's the next man up. It's your job to go

101
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: out there and make plays no matter what the situation is,

102
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: and even doing a really good job of that.

103
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: What are you installing this week?

104
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: I didn't install that play, you know, Calf and Calf

105
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: and always got to do a really good job of

106
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: calling it.

107
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: I just felt with the way the defense is playing

108
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 2: that that that play with that that play would work.

109
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 1: Billy let me down a little bit of not getting

110
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: to the end zone, so I had to give them

111
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: a little bit of crap. But you know, I'm never

112
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: gonna be upset with a touchdown myself.

113
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 3: You do that, though the cameras caught that by like

114
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 3: suggesting plays, I.

115
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: Mean you did all the time. You just get to

116
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 2: feel in the game.

117
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, camera obviously caught it on in that moment, But

118
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: sometimes it doesn't work like that. You get a feel

119
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 1: and they you know, they do the exact opposite what

120
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: you think. But you just get to feel the game

121
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: of what's going on through the game and how they're

122
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: playing you, and you just make suggestions, and we have

123
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: a coach staff did a really good job.

124
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 2: Of listening to the players. So how do they listen

125
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,799
Speaker 2: to you? I would say pretty much. You know, depending

126
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 2: on the game.

127
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: We can't I can't just go him there and be like, hey,

128
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: Dave's you know, I want the ball here. So and

129
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: he goes tell CAF say one wants the ball.

130
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 2: Here, and they give me a ball. I don't just

131
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 2: work like that. I'll say, they gotta agree with it.

132
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, I would say not just myself, whether it's DJ,

133
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: whether it's any of the quarterbacks, or whether it's wide receivers.

134
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: If they're playing a certain way and we feel it

135
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: and we watch it, we set him up.

136
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: And we can make the play. Uh, you know, they'll

137
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 2: give us a give us a greenlight. Jabrill on film,

138
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 2: what do you think about matching up with him? Really,

139
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: he's playing great, He's playing really good.

140
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: I'm happy, you know, Pep PEPs one of my guy

141
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: obviously being one former teammate, got nothing but respect for him.

142
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: Another way he works. I think his last year here

143
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: is the year that he tours knee. Uh so you

144
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: know he didn't he didn't go out the way that

145
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: he would like, but just happy to see him going back,

146
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: getting back to himself and playing at.

147
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 2: A high level right now.

148
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: It's a tough player. He's physical, Uh, you know, he

149
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 1: got that motor that doesn't stop, uh, whether it's practice

150
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: or whether it's in the game. So it's it was

151
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: a fun matchup when you get to go against a

152
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: guy like that.

153
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 2: Job Joe.

154
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 3: Sorry, this locker room seems pretty animated today and you know,

155
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,119
Speaker 3: exuberant today.

156
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: Why it was like that last week.

157
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: You know, I said we're two and eight but we

158
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 1: don't feel like a two and eighteen, and you know

159

Speaker 1: everything that we want to accomplish it still out there,

166
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,719

212
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 3: That would throw me with Tommy and rallied around him

213
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 3: in part because of the enthusiasm he brings and and

214

Speaker 3: how you know he's young, but but he's got he's

215
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 3: got something to him.

216
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it definitely helps you.

217
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: I feel like, uh, you can handle It's one or

218
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 1: two ways you're come in the situation and be nervous

219
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: and everyone could feel that. And now that's when it's

220
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: like all right, obviously, like I said, the NFL supposed

221
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: to you're here for a reason, but like if you're

222
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: going there and you seem scary, scheme timid, Uh, that's

223
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: not a recipe fosss. I think his attitude and the

224
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 1: way he comes and the swagger. Uh, you know, he

225
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: plays like what you think of like an Italian jersey

226
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: person would be like, that's exactly how he plays.

227
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 2: Like, So I think that definitely helps.

228
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 1: It's it's I think helps himself and and just just us,

229
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: we know that the guy that we have that's at

230
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: quarterback has confidence, confidence himself and confidently making the blades

231
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: and uh, that definitely definitely goes along with what do

232
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: you say to.

233
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,280
