WEBVTT - Doug Pederson 1-on-1 November 25

0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:03.360
<v Speaker 1>First of all, coach, congratulations. You know the Giants were

0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:05.760
<v Speaker 1>able to score in their first three possessions and then

0:00:05.760 --> 0:00:08.520
<v Speaker 1>the defense don't remind me, Yeah, they really came alive

0:00:08.600 --> 0:00:11.560
<v Speaker 1>after that. What was the difference? I think that that

0:00:11.760 --> 0:00:14.760
<v Speaker 1>the big difference was our defensive line began to put

0:00:14.800 --> 0:00:17.960
<v Speaker 1>a little pressure on Eli in the passing game. They

0:00:17.960 --> 0:00:21.040
<v Speaker 1>were able to stop you know, a tremendous running back

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:24.600
<v Speaker 1>in say Quan and and and Galladay and and really

0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:28.520
<v Speaker 1>I think our young dbs in the back end just

0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>settled into the game and really relaxed and played played well,

0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:35.880
<v Speaker 1>and um, you know quite frankly, just just just found

0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:38.040
<v Speaker 1>found the rhythm that they needed. How much are you

0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:42.680
<v Speaker 1>handicapped when you have such a young, inexperienced secondary, Well,

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:46.240
<v Speaker 1>the issue comes if somebody goes down, you don't have

0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:49.680
<v Speaker 1>backups anymore. You're you're you're limited there. So you're playing

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 1>with young players that really don't have any backup players

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 1>to go on the field. So that that's the limitation.

0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:56.560
<v Speaker 1>But you know the biggest thing is just I think

0:00:56.600 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>just the nerves early in football games. UM, communication, making

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>sure they're just trust their fundamentals, trust their technique. Um,

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:06.880
<v Speaker 1>they're coaching and uh, you know, just try to try

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>to eliminate as many distractions as possible. Carson Wentz admitted

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:12.479
<v Speaker 1>last week that he didn't have a good game. Talk

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:14.759
<v Speaker 1>about his performance today. I thought he did some really

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:18.960
<v Speaker 1>nice things today. Um, really managed our run game is

0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:20.280
<v Speaker 1>one of the things we went into this game. We

0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:22.120
<v Speaker 1>had some some things in our run game that he

0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.240
<v Speaker 1>had to handle. He did a nice job there, made

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:27.399
<v Speaker 1>some really really nice throws down the field. Um. You know,

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.080
<v Speaker 1>some some big had had a We weren't great on

0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:32.479
<v Speaker 1>third down, but some of the thirds downs that he converted,

0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 1>they were they were there and um and then the

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>fourth down, I think the fourth down at the end

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:39.320
<v Speaker 1>of the game to find Nelly over the ball, uh,

0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.120
<v Speaker 1>is one of the biggest throws he's made. How confident

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:44.280
<v Speaker 1>do you have to be when you make that call

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 1>on fourth and one? Well, you have to be you

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:49.160
<v Speaker 1>have to be a you know, one hundred perence sure

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>that that's the call you want As a play caller.

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Number two, you just you just trust your players. And

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.200
<v Speaker 1>it's a player we've wrapped a thousand times here and

0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>they know exactly where to be. A quarterback knows exactly

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, the coverage and and what is designed for

0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and um, well executed Brandon Brooks the latter part of

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 1>the game, when you guys are driving, he's turning. He's

0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 1>turning to you after the play and trying to emotion

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:13.880
<v Speaker 1>for you to continue to run the ball. How much

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.280
<v Speaker 1>input do you take when your guys on the field

0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:18.240
<v Speaker 1>do that. Yeah, I listened to those guys. I mean

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>they were they were rolling, and uh, it's exciting when

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 1>you know it's at the two minute warning at the

0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 1>end of the game. They're in the fourth quarter and

0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Brandon just nonchalantly just walks over to me and says, coach,

0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:30.799
<v Speaker 1>keep keep running the football. And I said, don't worry,

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:33.600
<v Speaker 1>big fellow, We're gonna run the ball here. So it

0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:36.360
<v Speaker 1>just gives them a lot of confidence. And they played

0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 1>really well today and as a group, and UM, I'm

0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.679
<v Speaker 1>excited to watch this tape and just see how well

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:44.119
<v Speaker 1>they played. It's one of those games where you rand

0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.239
<v Speaker 1>the ball actually more than you threw the ball. Was

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:49.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine runs, twenty eight passes. How important was that

0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:52.720
<v Speaker 1>for today's win? Listen, I think I think and anybody

0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:55.359
<v Speaker 1>would tell you that's that's probably a good formula. Um,

0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:57.799
<v Speaker 1>you know, you're gonna win a lot of football game,

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:01.359
<v Speaker 1>especially if you're running it successfully and and and and

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 1>so it just takes so much pressure off your quarterback.

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 1>It just allows him to play free and and see

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>the field and and uh, you know it just it

0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 1>and it and it sparks your offense too. And you

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.200
<v Speaker 1>know those guys are churning you know, five, six, ten,

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 1>fifteen twenty yard runs. I mean, it's just it's an

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:18.560
<v Speaker 1>exciting thing for everybody on your team. Thanks to coach,

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:19.800
<v Speaker 1>enjoy the one. Thanks Quick,
