Off the two straight losses but playing 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: a must win game? Is there still is there still fires, 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: there's still fight. Happy holidays, Bruce, Um, Hey, happy holidays. Yeah, 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 1: of course, I mean, um, I mean what else we 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: got left? Right? This is what There's not much left 7 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: in this season, um, and you gotta make the most 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: of your opportunity. And I think guys are piste off. 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: I think guys um want to play better. And I 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: think we know how. I mean, we played good football 11 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: here recent um, a few weeks ago. We know what 12 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: it takes, we know what it takes, we know what 13 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 1: it feels like to win. Yeah, no, we I think 14 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: I think we we were fired up. I think, um, 15 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: we're working really hard to be ready to go to 16 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: really have a good performance here and and to play 17 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: a playoff football game, which at the stakes that we're 18 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: looking like, that's that's what this is. And honestly having 19 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: having fifteen playoff football games under my belt, um, being 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: in this Super Bowl and having whatever experience whatever that's 21 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: worth at this point, Um, it's all about execution. The 22 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: weather is cold, most teams are physical this time of 23 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: the year. Most teams run the ball. Most teams want 24 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: to stop the run. It's really about executing your details, 25 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: executing the game, being good situationally. When we tend to 26 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: do that, we tend to win the game. So to us, 27 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: it's about clean up our details and executing Get ready 28 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: to play the Ravens. Kim Jones, Hey, Logan, it's Kim 29 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: Jones from NFL Network. Um, I understand if someone's going 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: to roll their eyes and say, well, what the heck 31 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 1: is he supposed to say? But you've been around enough. Um, 32 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: how close is this team? I mean, do you see 33 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: areas where you say we're at a level that any 34 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: team I've played on would be proud of, but there 35 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: are some other places where we need to catch up. Yeah? Um, 36 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: I think this team is close. I think I think, Uh, 37 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know what close. You know, closes 38 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: is relative term. I just think, um, we need to 39 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: beat the Ravens, and uh, you know, like I think 40 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: I think that. I think that is that's what needs 41 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: to happen. And uh, I think we saw how we 42 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: could play against Seattle. I think we can saw how 43 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: we can look. I don't know who's playing more playoff 44 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: teams than us. You know, we've played a lot of 45 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: good opponents this year. Our schedule has not been relatively easy, um, 46 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: with just our matchups. And that's no excuse. Just we've 47 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: we played them all. We've played all all the good 48 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: teams in my opinion, UM, a lot of them on 49 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: our schedule, A lot of them are really good. And 50 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: this is a really good one. And this is this 51 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: is the opportunity to play meaningful football in December, like 52 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: I talked about. And we're in the game and we're 53 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: going the game to win the games. We don't have 54 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: time to feel sorry for ourselves. Um, And I don't 55 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: lead like that. I try to preach confidence and the 56 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: standard is to go out here and win this game. 57 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what, the fans listening or whoever 58 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: may be listening, I'm preparing to go out there to 59 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 1: win the game because um, that's all that matters to me, 60 00:02:54,680 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: and that's what's at stake. Thank you, Logan or hey logan. Um, 61 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: Joe Judge called um Lamar Jackson a unicorn. Okay, now 62 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to tackle him, you do, right, Um, 63 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: he you know he's assigning you guys to tackle him. 64 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: So it is first of all, are do you have 65 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: enough guys in practice who can simulate him? You know 66 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: you've got receivers or defensive back to something who can 67 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,399 Speaker 1: simulate what he can bring. And from going against him? 68 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: Is he a different kind of athlete than even the 69 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: really good athletes that you play against. Yeah, to answer 70 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: it simply the first question, do we have anybody? No, 71 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: we don't. Um, there's nobody that can simulate him. And 72 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: playing against him last year in the playoffs, UM, yes, 73 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: he's different. He's a world class athlete, the generational talent. Um. 74 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: Not many ball carriers run like him with the ball 75 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: in his hand, his speed, his ability to change direction. Um, 76 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: he's he's he's a former m v P for a reason. 77 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: So he's really really good. You have to play really 78 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: fundamentally sound. I don't think it's a one on untackling 79 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: game with him. I don't think you want that. Um. 80 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: He makes a living on that. Um. But they have 81 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: tendencies or what they do. Um, it's football. They run plays, 82 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: there's gaps, there's jobs. We gotta win our jobs. I 83 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: really like our front. I really like our ability to 84 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 1: stop the run. UM, and that's what we all have 85 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: to commit to do and he makes it difficult because 86 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: he's that added runner, that extra runner, and uh, we 87 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: we we have to do that for sure. We have 88 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: to show up and do that, and I think we 89 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: will and I think we can, and we just got 90 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: to go do it on Sunday. And I think the 91 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: difference here is to go out go out here and 92 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: get these turnovers, go out here and be disruptive, to 93 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,799 Speaker 1: give our offense extra possessions, to give our offense the ball, 94 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: to get the Ravens behind. Because the reason why my 95 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: team had success against the Ravens last year is that 96 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: we came out, we started fast. We gotta lead. And 97 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: I think when you get a lead on the Ravens 98 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: and makes them play behind, um it gets it changes 99 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: their defense and their offensive schemes a little bit from 100 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: playing from behind. They're built to play from ahead because 101 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: they're really good at run the ball, they're really aggressive 102 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: on defense, and you to get those guys behind on 103 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: the scoreboard early. So starting fast is a major point 104 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: for us. UM it'd be ready to go on Sunday, 105 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: believe you can win the game. Be ready to go 106 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: and start fast is definitely a key point for us. 107 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: UM this week you said you don't have anyone to 108 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: simulate him, But who have you tried? Who? Who? Who? 109 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 1: Who gives it the best shot out there with you guys, 110 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I will we'll see what 111 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: the coach. I'm not gonna you know, I'm not going 112 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: to dispose that. We'll see the coaches still out there. 113 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: But there's nobody to simulate him, and his speed is 114 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: something you have to adjust to and somebody have to 115 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: be ready for. But if if we had Lamar Jackson 116 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: to simulate, and would probably play him on offense in 117 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: the game because that guy would be really good. But 118 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: you know, I just don't think we got him, you know, um, 119 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: And I don't think many people do. And I think 120 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: that's why they get off the good starts, is because 121 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: he's hard to simulate. He's very very talented, he's very rare, 122 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: and uh, well, we'll throw light bodies out there and 123 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: have guys, some receivers, some whoever um to go simulate 124 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: some of his running. Then put a quarterback in a 125 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: simulate his passing. But it's not one guy that can 126 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: do that all. So we gotta go out there and 127 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: be ready to go and and be have our cleats 128 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: in the ground on Sunday. Thank you, We'll take two 129 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: more rocking can logan. Just just a minute ago, you 130 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: were talking. You were asked about the sort of the 131 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: state of the team, and you you said, you know, 132 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: we were playing good football, and you it sounds like 133 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: you were going to say good football and you've reached 134 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: back to a couple of weeks when you were playing 135 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: good football. How what's changed over these last two games 136 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: and how do you get back to where you were 137 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: as the team that left the field in Seattle. Yeah, 138 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: every game I compared to hockey. When you're not winning 139 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: the game, you're not playing a game on your terms. 140 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: You pulled the goalie to try to get back in 141 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: the game. Okay, so let's bring it back. And I 142 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: know Joe's gonna kill me for going back anyway. We 143 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: get to Arizona. We didn't play well. There's no way 144 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: you can win the game with bad field position. We 145 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: lost the field position game. We were behind on the scoreboard. 146 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: We're chasing the score because we didn't. We came out 147 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: bad and we did not play well. And they have 148 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: too many good athletes on that team to get behind 149 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 1: and not play them well, so that that was just 150 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: a bad game on on every front. Last game, we 151 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: go out there and we're trying to do our best 152 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: to defend Cleveland's run game and stop chub and and 153 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: and the rushing attack. And Baker Mayfield played a very 154 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: efficient game. He didn't have many deep plays, he didn't 155 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: have many explosive plays. We didn't force the ball, we 156 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: didn't force any turnovers on defense, and he did a 157 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: very good job of taking care of the ball. He 158 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: did a very good job with third down, He did 159 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: a very good job in the red area, and he 160 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: slowly beat our team with good execution, long sustained drives, 161 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: ball control, and we were behind. When you get behind 162 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: by multiple scores in football at this time of the year, 163 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: there's no there's no learning opportunities, there's no learning games anymore. 164 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: It's it's they'll go win the game. So we're doing 165 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: things to go win the game, and we end up 166 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: losing it because we're behind. We're trying to create extra possessions. 167 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: We're trying to blitz or do something to go out 168 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: there and create extra possessions. In Arizona game, we forced 169 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: two fumbles in the fourth quarter, we don't get them. Right, 170 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: if we get those fumbles, it might be a different game. 171 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: We don't get them, so we gotta find a way 172 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: to go get these balls. We gotta go find a 173 00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: way to come out and play our our brand of 174 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: football from the start so we can we can take 175 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: control of the game, and we can we can run 176 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: our our offense, our defense the best way that we can, 177 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: the best way we we game plan too. So yes, 178 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: they we lost the game. Yes we didn't play well, 179 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: but we didn't play our style because of the score. 180 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: So we have to do a good job on the 181 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,239 Speaker 1: scoreboard so we can play our New York Giants brand 182 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: throughout the game. And I think starting fast is what 183 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: I mentioned a couple of times, so we can go 184 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: out and run our defense for the full game, so 185 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: we can we can play with on our terms is 186 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: the best way to put it. And how much just 187 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: having a healthy Daniel Jones play into playing your game. 188 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I I don't you know, I don't know 189 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: who's I don't know who's healthy. You know at this 190 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: point of the year, honestly, I can't tell you who's healthy. 191 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: I don't go off percentages. We gotta go out there 192 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: and play. If you suit up to play, you gotta 193 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: do the best job that you can based on your position, 194 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: based on your situation. So we need Daniel to play well. 195 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: The team needs Logan Ryan to play well. And I 196 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: can control what Logan Ryan does, So I'm gonna do 197 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: my best to uh to play well. But you know, 198 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: when we talk about healthy and week fifteen in NFL, 199 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: I mean, and guys can't get really massages or anything 200 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: because we might get COVID. So I mean, I'm I'm 201 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: fifteen weeks no massage, So I don't think anyone's too 202 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: healthy at this point in the year. It's go out 203 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: there and go find a way to win. In the 204 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: last three weeks, you guys have scored three points total 205 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: in the first half. I mean, the seeing Daniel in practice, 206 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: are you encouraged to think that he might be out 207 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: there this weekend? I am, I am.
