1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: Hey, what was the biggest difference for you performance wise 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,280 Speaker 1: from from week two to week three? 3 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 2: The biggest difference, I would say, you know, I felt 4 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 2: like both games, I was a lot of times I 5 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 2: was in the right position, you know, doing the right 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 2: thing up until the ball. I'd say week two, I 7 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 2: you know, I just probably could have finished a few 8 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 2: more plays. You know, obviously that comes down to tackling 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 2: and getting the ball carry on the ground. You know, 10 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 2: when I when I have those opportunities, and I think 11 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 2: there was a lot to improve too in week three 12 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 2: on that as well. You know, so I had some 13 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: mistackles against San France and that's something to clean up, 14 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: you know, moving forward. 15 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 3: Thank you. 16 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 4: Uh. 17 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: First of all, how did you react when the Giants 18 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: traded for Isaiah Simmons? They added another inside linebacker. Obviously 19 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: that's somebody who's going to compete with you for naps. 20 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: How how did you react to that? 21 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, obviously everybody wants to be on 22 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 2: the field, and everybody wants to play. But at the 23 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 2: same time, you know, I think it's it's a lot 24 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 2: bigger than that. It's about the team and you know, 25 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 2: getting the best guys in the building. So that we 26 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 2: can win on Sundays. So you know, obviously there's gonna 27 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 2: be competition in this league, and that's you know, on 28 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: any team you play for. But you know, after meeting 29 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: him and having him in the room with us, and 30 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,839 Speaker 2: you know, becoming close with him, and you know, playing 31 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: with him on the field, you know, I think Isaiah 32 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 2: is a great fit for this team. I've I've been 33 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: really excited to you know, get to know him and 34 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: then obviously see him perform and do his thing on Sundays. 35 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: And then two things from the tackling standpoint one, you 36 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 1: had a lot of tackles. 37 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 3: The team missed a lot of tackles. 38 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: How does the team clean that up in a week 39 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: where obviously you can't practice tackling a lot at this time, 40 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: So how do you go about cleaning that up? And 41 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: then secondly, your TFLs I think you had four of them. 42 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 3: How big are those plays? 43 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 5: Uh? 44 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 3: You know that kind of lost yardage? 45 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: That's what the Giants have been I think so far, 46 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,919 Speaker 1: I think you only have two sacks on the season. 47 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: How big are those plays for disrupting what an offense 48 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: is doing? 49 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 5: Yeah? 50 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 2: I think you know the point about tackling I think 51 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: it's just something you know, you bring it to the 52 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: forefront of your mind and and you know that's the 53 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 2: focus as you know, as we move forward throughout the 54 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 2: season that you know we need to you know, we 55 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 2: need to perfect that. And obviously we can we we 56 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 2: can't exactly simulate it during practice, but we can we 57 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 2: can definitely drill it and get reps doing it that way. 58 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: So that'll definitely be an emphasis this week. And then 59 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: you know, with the TFLs, I think, you know, I 60 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: think that's just making the plays when when my number 61 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: is called and when I have the opportunity to you know, 62 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: run through a gap or or chase the ball down 63 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 2: and and you know, make a play behind the line 64 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 2: of scrimmage. I think that's you know, that's helpful for 65 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: the team, and obviously, you know, want to continue to 66 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 2: make those plays moving forward. 67 00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 6: In Jones, Hey, Micah, what has Winks message? 68 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 5: Bin? 69 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 6: And I'm sure there have been messages plural, but what 70 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 6: is his main message for the defense right now? Fairly 71 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 6: early in the season, still you have this like mini 72 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 6: bye week almost because you played the two games last week. 73 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 3: What has Wings message? Bit? 74 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's just trust the process, and 75 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 2: you know, trust what we've been building all the way 76 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 2: since you know, back in the springtime and training camp, 77 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: and you know that's just stay together, stay as a team, 78 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 2: and you know, believe in what we're what we're doing 79 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 2: and the work we put in, and obviously, you know, 80 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 2: build on the things we've done well and correct the 81 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: things that we need to improve on, so so that 82 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: we can you know, move forward, get some wins, and 83 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: continue to grow as a team and as a unit. 84 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 7: Is the defense, and I'm asking you, you know, obviously 85 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 7: to speak for the team, which if you're not comfortable doing, 86 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 7: I understand, But generally speaking, has the defense been frustrated 87 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 7: by not making big plays, big game changing plays through 88 00:03:58,440 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 7: the three weeks. 89 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if you know, frustration would be the 90 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: right word, but just you know, obviously you want to 91 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: make those big plays, and I think everybody's ready for them, 92 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 2: you know, when they do come around, and we've had 93 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: opportunities to do that. It's just about capitalizing on them 94 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: when you know, when the time is called. So obviously, 95 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: you know, we know it's a long season, and we 96 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 2: know that you know, there's gonna be a lot of 97 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 2: opportunities along the way and chances to make plays on 98 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: the ball and and set up opportunities for offense to 99 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: have a short field and go down and score. But 100 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,119 Speaker 2: you know, it's just about you know, continuing to believe 101 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 2: in it and trust the process and improve on the 102 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,679 Speaker 2: little details during practice that that can you know, create 103 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: those turnovers and make those big plays happen. So we'll 104 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 2: just continue to do that and just a quick win 105 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: if I may. 106 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 6: When do you or have you started looking at the 107 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 6: Seahawks like, I'm not sure in a week like this one, 108 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 6: like when you would start. 109 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I first walked through for the week 110 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 2: will be tomorrow. But yeah, we'll definitely you know, obviously, 111 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: I'm I'm sure like a lot of the other players, 112 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: like myself, I've already started kind of watching films and 113 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 2: you know, watch their game from yesterday and whatnot. So 114 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: you know it will definitely pick up, you know, just 115 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: like a normal week would right now. 116 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 3: Gotcha, Thank you. 117 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 7: So much, Pattie Traina anyway, how you doing good? 118 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: How about you? 119 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 3: Good?

You know, Coach Daves always talks about a 126 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: next play mindset, and you know, obviously that happens throughout 127 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: the game, just you know, not worrying too much about 128 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: you know, what might have just happened, good or bad, 129 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 2: and and you know, continuing to to attack the next 130 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 2: play and you know, just just play as hard as 131 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 2: you can for that play at that one moment. And 132 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 2: I think that goes obviously from a week to week basis, 133 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: not to worry about, you know, whether you had a 134 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 2: big loss week one, and you know you got to 135 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: bounce back and and you know go in the ode 136 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: for two quick games and you know, perform well and 137 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: and try to get a couple of wins. And you know, 138 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 2: as the season moves on, there's gonna be a lot 139 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: of a lot of you know, bumps in the road 140 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: and and then obviously a lot of mountaintops where we 141 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 2: can you know, celebrate on a victory. But it's just 142 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 2: about you know, attacking the next week, coming in the 143 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: next week and preparing the right way and getting ready 144 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 2: for the next opponent. 145 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: We're all human though, I mean, it's natural for us 146 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,119 Speaker 4: if we've had a bad game or a good game 147 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 4: to carry that over, you know, and say, Okay, I 148 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 4: had a great game. You know I'm gonna build on 149 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 4: that I had a bad game. You know what if 150 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 4: it happens again. So amongst you as players, do you 151 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 4: talk about that? I mean, what do you tell each other? 152 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean obviously, you know there's a moment in 153 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 2: the middle of a game where somebody might have messed 154 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: up and they're like, you know, matt at themselves or down. 155 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: I think I think that's where, you know, the team 156 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 2: chemistry comes along, and having the guys around you to 157 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 2: to you know, support you and and you know tell you, 158 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 2: you know, just remind you to forget about it that 159 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: you know, everybody's going to make mistake. The best players 160 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 2: in the league, you know, have bad games at points. 161 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 2: So you know there's times you know, to there's just 162 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 2: that time that you've got to move on and you know, 163 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: trust that you know you can, you can do the 164 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: right thing and you can improve, you know on the 165 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: past mistakes and even the past you know, victories.

How do 171 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 5: you guys, I don't want to say, but show. 172 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 3: Up on time. 173 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, that's definitely a good point. I think 174 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: it's just you know, locking in from the get go. 175 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,559 Speaker 2: Obviously it's not, you know, as easy as just getting 176 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: points on the boards as quick as the other team does. 177 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: And you know, obviously we want to do that and 178 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 2: we want to get that that quick start, but you know, 179 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 2: even when we don't, it's it's obviously, you know, like 180 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 2: we've been talking about, just stay in the course and 181 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: and you know, believing in the next play and you know, 182 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: taking advantage of every opportunity. And you know, if there's 183 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: a game, you know, like Arizona where we're down twenty 184 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: points and we've got to come back and and you 185 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 2: know fight for a victory, we're going to do that. 186 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, it's just that that trust and that belief 187 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: and in the team and and you know, obviously we'd 188 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 2: like to get some quicker starts as we move forward, 189 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 2: but just trusting the process. 190 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 5: One other quick one a lot of third and long 191 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 5: so on the last the last game, that's simply miss 192 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 5: assignments or what I think. 193 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: You know, there's there's a lot of things that go 194 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 2: in to a third down game plan, and you know, 195 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: obviously the mistackles last game contribute to it.
