1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: Dexter was in here saying, yesterday or two days ago,

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 1: everybody's so excited about the Giants pass rush, the pass rush,

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: what the care? And he said his message was like,

4
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if we can't win first and second down.

5
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Last two years, run defense has been a major problem

6
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: for this defense. And how do you guys go about

7
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: fixing it?

8
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 2: As one of the middle linebackers, yeah, I mean run

9
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 2: games holistic. It takes everybody.

10
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 3: I will say, like, we're glad about all the additions,

11
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 3: but I think first and foremost that comes down to

12
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 3: communication and guys talking on the back, fit the back,

13
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 3: you know, behind us and letting us know the rotation

14
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 3: and where's everybody's gap and all that, and then you know,

15
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 3: playing aggressive and playing true upfront.

16
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Giants are going to be better. Does it

17
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: start like at the top of the list. Does it

18
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: start with improving the run defense?

19
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 2: Yeah?

20
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 3: On the defense for sure. I mean that's where it starts.

21
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 3: If you can't stop the run, can't stop anything. So yeah,

22
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 3: it'll be a major focus for us.

23
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: What do you think of the new guys Alexander or

24
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: Robertson are Obviously the Giants made a big investment in

25
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: game the defensive front.

26
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody you know looks really good. It's uh, it's

27
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 3: good for linebackers when you have those type of guys

28
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: in front of you, you can run and hit and

29
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: and even on the back end, you know, Javon Paulson,

30
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 3: it's uh, it's exciting.

31
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 2: But you know, obviously we're working on putting it all together.

32
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 4: But you know, everyone when people tell them about Jamon

33
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 4: and everyone says communication, communication, communication.

34
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 2: What did you just mentioned that before about the back end?

35
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 2: What does that mean? And what do you sense from him?

36
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: It seems easy to communicate, but not everyone. You know,

37
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 2: he seems to be very good at Yeah, no doubt.

38
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 2: I mean it's important knowing when the where the safety

39
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 2: is rotating down who he has the responsibility of the guys.

40
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 3: And you know a lot of times we're working with

41
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: him in our coverage fit and in the run the

42
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 3: run scheme as well. And you know, sometimes that call

43
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 3: needs to get all the way down to the D

44
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 3: line and uh so and and back like you know,

45
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 3: wherever the D line are shifting to or you know,

46
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 3: where they're lining up. We gotta we gotta get that

47
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 3: communicated as well. So, yeah, it's crucial for our success

48
00:01:59,040 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 3: on the defensive side.

49
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: And you til already he's good at it. Is there

50
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 2: an example of him being good at it you could share?

51
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, just he's a veteran, so

52
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 3: he knows what it looks like, he knows how quick

53
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,639
Speaker 3: it needs to be. And you know, there's there's things

54
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: we're correcting every day, and you know, just being on

55
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 3: top of that, knowing the moment something's up that you

56
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 3: know we can alert that.

57
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 2: Over communicating, I think is the biggest the biggest thing

58
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 2: for us.

59
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 3: It's just being alert to what's going to happen before

60
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: it happens.

61
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 4: Micha, You've seen a lot of talented players in front

62
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 4: of you. From that vantage point, I know a lot

63
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 4: of us get caught the first three days watching at

64
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 4: dule and seeing where he is. Just curious. Maybe when

65
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 4: you watch back or even live in the games. What's

66
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 4: been your take impression on the rookie.

67
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he's a talent for sure, really twitchy

68
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 3: and he's physical at the same time. So you know,

69
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 3: when you have a player like that, it helps everybody out.

70
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: You know, there's a play yesterday where you know he

71
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,959
Speaker 3: took on the Puller and you know, the second guy,

72
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 3: and a lot of times, you know, we talked about

73
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 3: it in our meeting, like a lot of times in

74
00:02:58,840 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 3: the run scheme.

75
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: You know, you got to make up the math because

76
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: they might have more numbers.

77
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 3: Than we have. And you know, when you have a

78
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 3: player that can do that, it helps everybody out a

79
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 3: fun scene.

80
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 4: You normally don't have the big guys up front or

81
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 4: even the edge guys kind of time back playing with you.

82
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 4: Right being in that situation in the field, for a

83
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 4: guy that talented to be able to be that versatile,

84
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 4: I mean, does that just add to it what you're saying?

85
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I mean it makes us more multiple, Like

86
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 3: you're talking about when you have a guy who can

87
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 3: play off the ball, Burns is the same way. You know,

88
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 3: we're going to use him in that way as well.

89
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 3: So it's exciting to you know, have those type of

90
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 3: players on our team for sure, Like it's your.

91

Speaker 1: Contract here, anything on your mind in terms of like

92
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: does that add pressure? Prove it? I mean, obviously you're

93
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: an established guy. I mean, have any talks with the

94
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: giants that staying here?

95
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 3: You know, I think right now, just focus on training

96
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 3: camp and you know, trying to improve. I think, you know,

97
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 3: there's a lot of things that I can focus on, uh,

98
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: to get better, and you know, there hasn't been anything yet,

99
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: and I'm just kind of focused on what we're doing
